Didn't try to explain a thing.
Didn't have an intention of someone understanding anything. 
That would be like trying to explain or want someone to
understand, "Oh, look, the bird.."

Only reason I asked is because when I used to try an explain what was going on inside my head to someone else, either in person or on these forums, it felt as if a little bit of that magic had been deleted forever having done so.
I meant no disrespect. =] |

Yes, I think describing is probably different than explaining - that was
what came into my head when I read this post anyway.
And describing from genuine wonder can be contagious, imo.
I'm so self-centered if there's people that don't "get" me or
what I'm saying I figure they are the ones missing out, as in, oh well.
If that helps you hold onto the magic...

It is a lot like saying 'I saw a bird'... one can tell a story about 'I was walking just so then flappity flap was the bird... etc...
My posts were only the story about how I was and then 'I saw the light'.
It's funny, the next day I was walking around thinking 'now I know what thoise crazy people mean when they flay their arms around shouting "I seen tha Light".
I told someone that and they looked at me like I was crazy. Figures.

Well, Hafiz, Kabir, William Blake and I
wouldn't think you were crazy.

Maybe a little less arm flaling would help?

Hehe. It's hard to avoid arm flailing when talking about such wondrous things!! But yes, people tend to stop listening at that point. That, and when my eyes get so wide you can see the white part all the way around.
I too have felt the magic diminish when trying to describe some of this to disinterested people, but the breath of divine expansion when I notice just one other person nod in assent when I mention what I call the "liquid light" inside...
Well, it's worth most people thinking I'm strange to find just one other person who 'gets' me. :) |

If I had a friend who said , "See that - I saw that inside this morning." .. I would have bombarded him with my curious questions to know more and my friend would start thinking i m crazy :-)

in Sante Fe and said , "See that - I saw that inside this morning."
I never saw anyone avoid a subject so fast!
So this is so refreshing for me to read you all.
Thank you.
More please...
I'm sorry there were too many things to comment on individually....just "wow". |
