[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 214348, member: 14641"] I do not consider myself precious, I have no belief system myself, so I am not interested in using that to propagate my own thoughts, in that avenue, all options remain open, all opinions must be respected, however, the litmus test is key here, my opinions are merely my opinions, if they are shot down factually, if they fail the litmus test, no one will be more happy about it than me, as I will have learned something. yes that is hard, I do not envy you. I only have to walk down the street and listen to conversations to know that keeping ones mind uncluttered with pointless information is indeed a good thing. Sacrifice? you make it sound like a chore, or something that must be done, any meditation and deep thinking I do in between sleeping. Nope, seeking is seeking, whether its for education, sex, knowledge, wisdom, a new car, love, whatever, its all seeking, its all trying to fill the void, trying to understand why the big black horrible damp dank hole wishes to swallow us up, some people know about the void, others do not, some fill it, some pretend it isn't there, you seek Mukti, I only wish to maintain what I have, which is pretty much nothing anyway, although within nothing is freedom, freedom is good, freedom allows you to be free.To be truly free in my opinion is to want for nothing and to be content with what you have, in that state, no one owns you, nothing owns you, not even Mukti. Nope, as I said, I wish to continue, not to aspire to another level, you could say that wishing to continue is a goal, but it would only be so, if I ceased to continue, so we have not reached that point. Life has not lost its shine at all for me, life becomes an adventure every day, but an adventure free of the requirements of social interaction, no one upsets me, as I don't interact, no one hates me, but the flip side is of course, no one validates me, and no one loves me, so I spend my day working and doing the things that give me pleasure, whatever that may be on whatever day.
