The thinking is that when one becomes enlightened then one is in bliss. Doesn’t see the dog poop in front of him and steps into it. Rather that when one is enlightened, one is mindful and sees the dog poop. Then one can choose ones action of stepping forward. Into or around or over. The actions of enlightened ones are done with love and compassion. It is not done in a vacuum or even with urges. Hmm, spend too much time inside my head. It may be time to let go of this.

Some friends thought the secret was to stop thoughts. Iron rod across the brain type of thinking. To open the mind’s eye is to transfer one’s awareness from thoughts to being conscious. Do not know where they are now. Maybe far ahead of me. I lack that ambition to see the end of the journey. I like the path I am travelling. Hey, did I read this also??
