That would be really great. Please point me to this or to someone who

It had damn well better be if it is going to be of much help to anyone
at all! Tell me my eyes are fucked up heh? If I don't see it then it
is something wrong with me? That is an old, old con and not one that
engenders trust. Yes, I want the evidence right NOW. I've waited enough
millenia for it.

Really? So how do you know that? You believe that is the sign of what
you speak of but exactly how do you know? I can and have seen things
that way myself but that didn't make it so either. Looking at the world
through blissed out rose-colored glasses made me very happy but that
isn't all its about, is it?

Because that would be just me diving into the bliss and not taking care

A lot of spiritual people who believe it is all just Maya and doesn't

Yes, I dare. But I don't believe I start by giving myself a lobotomy.
