Hi Peter
I can see the beauty in a cerebral style, as with any other. We are all different and beautiful in our own unique ways. Yet at the same time similar.
Krishnamurti is an excellent choice! My husband is a fan of his. I also enjoy Dipa Ma. I’m not sure if you’ve heard of her?
Ooh I don’t know about right brain and left brain stuff. My brain doesn’t work in a co-ordinated way. It gets confused and mixed up. Just how I’m wired.
I think that things are hard to understand until experienced. Or at least until there is more awareness.
People have such different experiences across the world and it is like Alice in Wonderland sometimes. We imagine that our experience is the only one. Other experiences different from ours are like a television show sometimes, abstract.
I think that esoteric writing can be like that. Reading the Confucian Analects, over the years my understanding changes each time I learn something new I think I actually understand what that means now.
So I wouldn’t worry about judgement. It evolves as we learn. It sounds like you are experiencing these changes of awareness and understanding too.
I enjoy Koans, but I don’t have the patience for them. 😂
It’s good to hear that you weren’t offended. It can be challenging to see through feelings when they get brought up. You handled things well and managed to understand his intent.
I don’t believe that Tommy meant harm. I know lots of people who speak like that. Rough around the edges, direct and speaking his mind honestly. Some might say a bit too honest. 😂
Love and best wishes! ❤️🙏
