Nah, people act imperfectly because they don't know who they are and are
afraid.

It does exist as a projection and lack of understanding. It can be
manufactured just as fear can as a response when there is nothing to
fear.

Danijel, Danijel, Danijel....
Heh...you know I wouldn't. That would be silly, wouldn't it? :) Because
people act imperfectly the wise solution would be to act prudently. I
may be an eternal being but I live in a body made of organic material.
Am I totally detached from that attachment and what is the result of
that? No...nor would I want to be.

:) Yes, this suffering does happen. Shall we call this "evil" then? The
only "evil" and suffering that we can totally affect is the conflict we
have created in our own hearts from the opposition to the Divine. We can
only see in others what we have recognized in ourselves. The ability to
cultivate peace in ourselves and to see the perfection that already
exists in others, in my experience, creates a doorway for others to do
the same. It doesn't always work but for a fleeting moment those who may
live in delusion may feel a crack in that opening. Sometimes that may be
all that is necessary for change to begin, for them to see things
differently.

Well, there you go...thanks for explaining that in detail for me. :) I
agree.

Oy Danijel, treat the suffering in our own hearts first, where conflict
begins, where delusion lives. Then words are not necessary when the
heart is at peace. Tenderness and compassion radiate.
You assume that I think the body is bondage and I seek to be liberated.
Nothing is further from the truth for me. I am enjoying my bodily
incarnation. Where I am is where I am to be. Peace is present now, the
stars shine within me. Location has nothing to do with it. I am not in
prison, looking for liberation. And if something happens that can cause
me danger, then I move.
You offer an extreme example but rarely does such extreme behavior
happen but yes, it could. I know that my faculties of discernment would
kick in as would my survival instinct and I would not respond in such a
stupid manner. :) I respect the duality of the world I live in and the
delusions of it's inhabitants. To do otherwise is hubris and
foolishness.
I work as a registered nurse. Every day I see those caught in delusion
and suffering. I have also been physically harmed at work by those who
are possessed in their delusions. The only thing I can control is my
response to violence. I do not have to respond with a violent mind.
You know, Danijel, that all those greatest qualities are there. We
mirror what we see, yes? :) Then we act prudently.
> (Oh I'm bad, evil in fact, yes I am, yup:))
I am glad you are. :) Bad to the bone...yep..that would be you.

Hello and welcome back.
