Our conceptual world:
so what we really have is a conceptual world, and more so, our own image is constructed in the very same way and the validity of it all is never even questioned. We live with and as images, none of it true in a real sense, and this has entrapped us in a world of self-created suffering. The path of Jhana Yoga offers us one means of escape, relentless self-inquiry and study until we see straight through to the truth. Buddhism too is designed to guide us through illusions, eventually, with committed effort, we arrive to a clear view of ourselves and the world.
yet for me,
I love the quick means of forgiveness.
and what I forgive is every illusion presented, each story that appears is my opportunity to see through my perceptions to the clarity of truth - with, honestly, varying degrees of success. But the opportunity is always there, and the more willing I am to forgive, the easier it is to navigate through an often harsh and difficult world. That's actually how we forgive, really, the only effort is in the request to see things differently, accepting the stories that we've told and asking to seeing everything a bit more clearly. If even just a little.
truthfully, all we ask for is light.
and that's already present.
it's in this way...
that we awaken from the world we've dreamed.

I love you, Eric
