Taste, Smell, Touch, Sight, Hearing ar...The senses. Taste, Smell, Touch, Sight, Hearing are all part of the body mind appearance. Once you are embodied as a human these senses are part of this I (ego self). All these senses connect you with your world. If there is pain or pleasure appearing, this has no preference to the livingness force, the I (ego) has preferences for pleasure over pain generally. (Some humans have sadomasochistic tendencies or other forms of pleasure/pain combos which play themselves out as the will.)<br /><br />Trust in the heart or the Hsin Hsin Ming points to<br />a way of viewing life living itself.<br /><br />Everything plays itself out as it does and any separate preferences by an I (ego) gets swept away like leaves falling from a tree. If emotional pain occurs within you then it indicates that this "YOU" is not in total acceptance with what is.<br /><br />The cartoons are just the way life has been expressed here.<br />In fact they seem to have stopped appearing at present. :)<br /><br />Ouch or Aaahhhh, depends on where the reference point is placed to view them from.Bob Sealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745625132764131475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18661606.post-51227047735285255832011-02-10T06:14:59.850+11:002011-02-10T06:14:59.850+11:00It's always interesting to see other peoples ...It's always interesting to see other peoples ideas and views. I used to be on board with this cartoon sentiment. Then I noticed that there is in fact a preference that seems to pop up in every earth experience. <br />That of ouch.<br />Whether a person labels it as pain, suffering, decay or death, it comes with an amount of ow irregardless of any name label put upon the experience.<br />That ouch brings with it its own form of addiction and joy/dislike. <br /> The earth way is not as difficult if one prefers an ouch of some sort in their daily experience. Something that breaks down, gets injured,or hurts. <br />The earth way isn't as difficult if one is sadomasachistic in nature. When one no longer joys in the sadomasachism it becomes a little challenging to prefer. Then comes the push-pull to change and/or control. If a person doesn't care even better. aaah, but most conscious neurons seem to care. <br />If a person decides they don't care for an ouch, or a what the? or something breaking or decaying causing some discomfort to the bodily vehicle, then it's a whole 'nuther story. <br /><br />I'd have to say, The Earth Way is not difficult for those who prefer ouches. If a person prefers ouches they will love it and almost any path will work for them. <br /><br />This is not the only Great Way.... it is however predominantly the Earth Way.<br /><br />donn.elaine@gmail.comDonn Elainenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18661606.post-23617723008047511542010-09-09T08:25:18.108+10:002010-09-09T08:25:18.108+10:00thanks t,
