[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 214407, member: 14641"] hah fat chance, firstly, it is quite arrogant and egoistical that I should think I know anything, at one time I did think I knew quite a lot, but now I realise I actually know nothing, and nothing is fine, because nothing is better than knowing a lot, but it all being false, so I aim to stay at nothing, sure I don't know the truth, but I know the lies and know what to stay away from! People can only take lessons learned if they have walked in my footsteps all my life and have had the same experiences, if you have never had a problem with booze, then conquering alcoholism is of little interest, if you have never blown your entire net worth down the casino, then also, conquering gambling is of little interest, all it can do is act as a giant sign, but who reads giant signs anymore, people will do what they wish to do, and why should I or anyone stop them, has it ever occurred that I could in fact be making things worse, by me telling them how to do this, or what to avoid, I am taking away their own golden moment in discovering who they and what they are about. Is this a secret society? does it have a website? how do I join? what is a saint? did we have a saint negotiate our say in partition in 1947? if we did, then I wish we hadn't had a saint, I wish we had a top notch evil {censored} lawyer would have fought and got our own bit regardless of niceties, I do not want a saint negotiating on my behalf, if I was up on a wrongful murder rap, I would not want a saint representing me, so what good are these saints? lock them up I say, let them get off on their own saintlyness in private, not in the real world where there actions actually cause more damage than good. another solid gold quote, but hard to achieve in real terms, not that hard, but lots of distractions, and then of course maintaining sainthood is harder than reaching it. not quite sold gold, but good, I agree with all the statement to the self, the rest of the world bit I am not so sure about, you cannot change the world, and in my view, you should not wish to, its quite self destructive, unless self destruction is your thing. errr its not my place, I only know what I know for me, it would be again, arrogant and egoistical to think that by finding my own place, I can help others find theirs, I dislike teachers, people who cannot do, teach. Oh, when we get ourselves out of ego, attatchment, pride, anger, selfishness, yes, there is happiness, although maybe contentment might be a better word, and yes, we truly live, but you cannot teach this, and you should not wish to, one thing I will say, I did not realise how much happiness and pleasure I derived from being better than others, from seeing envy, from getting respect, but its all bullshit really, after that, I derived pleasure from being worse than everyone else, from seeing looks of pity, from giving respect and help, but that is also all bullshit as well, you interfere in the workings of the world, and then you have to ask yourself, am I willing to take responsibility for my act of help that has actually turned people into being completely reliant on me, have I freed them, or have I enslaved myself to them, no, helping others is very very subjective, giving a beggar money, that they could spend on drugs, hell, I have even seen a beggar go back into a shop and try and swap a sandwich someone had bought for him, for a lager can, in my mind, the beggar who sits in the cold and gets nothing, will sort themselves out quicker than the beggar who gets enough to get by, for the latter, a lifetime of getting by, for the former, belief in the self, thank you for your questions, I hope I have answered them without offence [/QUOTE]
