Enlightenment and eclipse
Enlightenment and eclipse are absolute opposites!
The valley of tears, the swamp of darkness, hell vents of
creative self-destruction, here we are, in the midst of our own
walls that we build ourselves, waiting for the "enlightenment",
dissatisfied in our lives eyeing everything suspiciously,
doubting and hating, behaving quite differently than how Buddha
exemplified life to people.
Sick among sick, disturbed among disturbed, afraid of the fears,
hallelujah, the negative pulls down, the bottom has not yet been
reached.
Among us are countless types, who must first come up at the
bottom, before they want to (or can) orient themselves upward,
whom the darkness literally attracts, who do not seek the light.
Perhaps it is also quite simply that "one" must know the eclipse
in order to appreciate the enlightenment at all.
For my part, I also had to really fall on my face to get my head
"straightened out", it seems to be a human phenomenon to look on
the dark side. With animals little to nothing of such, mental
perversions is to be noticed, the problem goes quite obviously
along with the developed thought palace, in which the ego can
spread, which sits then like a devil on our shoulders, whispers
nonsense to us, wants to talk us useless trinkets on, produces
worthless emotions. This is exactly the ego Buddha warned us
about, but who listens; put up the statues of the great teacher,
yes, but what did the man say again, no plan, how to go on,
nobody has a plan.
No one gets enough, everyone comes up "short", what are the
contents and values, no plan. Higher, faster, further, richer,
more, more, more. But the emptiness in people remains, the
desired feelings are transient like the wind, after the game is
before the game.
Relaxation and balance are just empty words, everyone is caught
up in their stress, the path of Buddha can (could) help here, but
who is listening? What were the three key phrases from the
teacher of all teachers again, who knows?
Life is a journey, we are all time travelers, through the
universe our planet is lurching, we are smaller than a grain of
sand but have dreams far too big.
If you think about the word "eclipse" now, what appears in your
mind's eye? What trip are you "going" on? And most importantly,
why? In the country of the blind the one-eyed man is king, darkly
I see outlines, see the wretchedness of us humans.
The way is the goal!
The universal ruler throws forces to the front, he fastens the
jewel at the top of his
top of his banner, in the darkness and gloom of the night
