[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 166127, member: 14641"] Chazji, We are never going to agree, so it is important we both understand this, otherwise we are going to get bogged down in attempts to convert the other. I admire your love and devotion, I have always said that, I do try and write my posts so it is clear they are my thoughts only, rather than the universal truth, but different things work for different people. I am a man, the minute I stop acting like a man, I am either dead, or I have attained complete understanding and enlightenment. Now I have to be honest with you, I am a realist, I have to this date, never met a man who had attained understanding to the point that he would not have been aware of a draw on one of his thieves, in fact, I am not sure I wish to be without this draw, its what makes me human, and not superhuman. I am happy and content with the fact that I can be discerning enough to know how to treat the opposite sex, even though I still have age old animal instincts. I understand these instincts, sometimes they are for good, sometimes for bad, it is a case of knowing which is good, and to embrace, and which is bad, and ignore, this is nothing to do with cleansing, more to live in peace, understanding and consonance. If priority is not the question, and you come across two situations at the same time, one a woman being raped, and the other a man with a flat tyre, then you would not use logic and discretion to evaluate which deserved your help the most? I would rather help the woman being raped with an impure heart (impure heart meaning my motives may be for the self, that I am doing something good) than change the tyre with a pure one............. Au contraire, I have tried it, and found it put me in the same state as drugs do. I prefer to be aware and alert, not doped up on meditation. Neither I, nor my shop look professional, the shop is full of computers in various states of assembly, I am wearing my normal attire of a dirty t shirt, old shorts, one pink sock, one red sock, and the local kids pop by every morning to play guess the food stain on my t shirt, professional I am not..., I do not think I will ever not have these thoughts, but I understand these thoughts, and I do not act on them. They do not even bother me, if anything, I am pleased that I have educated myself through Bani as to how I should deal with them, I am in control, not the thoughts, thoughts come and go, that is how brains work, your method of cleansing, I warrant, will destroy a lot more than your thoughts This is just rhetoric, what is a soul? how can I possibly relate to this when I have no idea what a soul is? you are also contradicting yourself, are you cleansing yourself of the thieves, or controlling them? I have always said english translations are pretty terrible regarding extracting the beauty and logic from Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. If you replace meditate with contemplate, then you have my interpretation., Always a pleasure debating with you, I hope you do not find me mundahug brusque, and if so, I apologise [/QUOTE]
