Dear Paul and Jerry,
That's good, Jerry what you write about Samadhi
Years ago I used to write *about* things the way you do, speak *about*
things to answer questions. I somehow cannot do that very well anymore. Have
pretty well forgotten any book learning and find it hard to look things up.
Providing "explanation type of writing about my stuff", even though ppl. ask
me to provide such, I find the hardest. So I just record experiences, dish
them up so to say... , with some (sometimes plenty enough, I guess)
commentary that happens to come up as I write.
Being is being. Experience is what is -in a limiting form- being registered
*re: being*, jotted down so to speak in the mentalized, memorizing brain,
somewhat verbalizable. Experience does not represent the whole "shebang",
not at all. Describing experience is NOT everything, but I find it a way of
providing a testimonial that is closer to reality than explanations. At this
stage (commentarized) description suits me better than deliberations and
conceptualizing . Feels more direct to reality. Do not take me wrong, I do
not want to put the conceptualizing kind of thinking and writing down, it is
is just harder and harder for me to do. But written and talked about
experiences are just memories. Memories are not what the being is. And
experiences lead ppl. to go for fascination, the far out, material
spiritualism.
Felt a need to write this.
Love, Wim
