[QUOTE="Archived_member14, post: 175480, member: 586"] Chazsingh ji, The only light is wisdom. What you are suggesting is that it is easier to know the five thieves when living the life of householder as these make themselves known more clearly. But as I said, wisdom is the only light and when it arises, does not mind what the object is. Any other kind of knowing, as in any Chaz, Confused and Harry knowing, I am angry, I am jealous, I am attached or I understand, is knowing by way of ignorance, attachment and self-view, which is just another trick within maya. Duality / Non-dual are a Hindu concepts which has no place in my way of thinking. I don't understand your point. But why would any normal person choose jumping out the window? Above, you do appear to be suggesting that the householder’s life is more ideal than that of the recluse…. Well, can you choose to do this? I don't believe in destiny. Each moment is conditioned, but nothing is predetermined. It is insusceptible to the control of will precisely because it has arisen and already fallen away by the time it is known, not because there is something behind pulling the strings. No need to surrender, just develop better understanding, not of how and why, but just what *is*. So there exists a puppeteer? Your understanding about ignorance and what it is to know is very different from mine. According to me, ignorance is defined in relation to the Four Noble Truths. Ignorance is therefore of a) Dukkha or the insubstantial nature of all conditioned existence; b) Tanha or the greed which longs after these insubstantial realities leading to continued existence; c) Nirvana or the unconditioned / release and d) the Eightfold Path leading to this release, which is wisdom itself. Knowledge and understanding of these four Truths are developed within three broad stages. And I would be at the first steps of the first stage and expect to remain around there for another million lifetimes or so. It wasn't about you, but the view itself reflects this. Three ways in which “self” manifests, view, attachment and conceit. While you do point out the wrongness of the latter two, you however appear to be caught in the clutches of the first. This is strange. You study in order to be able to distinguish / judge, yet you hesitate to point out what is right and what is wrong when it is time to do so…? Are you trying to make an excuse for God, namely why there exists both good and evil, ignorance and wisdom, right and wrong? So no particular benefit with regard to the life of a householder over that of the recluse? So is it inner pull or the outer pull of the puppeteer? ;-) Yes, ignorance and desire will be there for a long, long time to come. But this will only increase if we do not acknowledge their influence and worse, if we mistake them for some kind of good. It is because of ignorance that there is conceit, not the other way round. . If it is not understanding that is seen as key, then whatever else that is being referred to must be in reality, ignorance and attachment coming in the name of something good. Projecting into the future is greed “now”. Better know this than be drawn in by the particular projection. [/QUOTE]
