Cenarious SG do i let loose all my negativities or hide them by force, when i still get too personal in some stuff etc? (not enough wisdom to see them as conditions)
paperflower SG you so always talking about ego thingy. how about you let me slap u & you remain still without conditions arising. how about that humiliation? can you take it?
Cenarious SG if you say like that of course can, but if the situation involves some other stuff that pulls my ego into it im not too sure
Cenarious SG i mean yes i can let u slap, but i dont know if i will be angry inside or not. cos i dont know what conditions u will give me and im not too enlightened
Cenarious SG because im not that sure if i will be overtaken by thoughts, or whether i can take a step back and look at the situation.
Cenarious SG which is why we practise. practise to weaken our thoughts' power over us. and a bunch of people practising together can remind one another of it.
paperflower SG you have your own version to analyse. not doing strong is your excuse to admit to your ego. reading & doing are 2 different experiences.
Cenarious SG Ya, but sometimes i forget. and exactly, reading and doing are different. Which is why i learn to do it after reading.
