Greatest tug of war!

[raybo]

Namaste!

The greatest tug of war known to mankind is upon the enlightened initially exposed to the inner depth of seeing... offered by new found awareness. In time, perhaps such extremes will collapse as one. Yet, as such things are enticed... the extremes of this world will remain manifested upon the nature that tugs on ones heart. Such extremes while enlightened are thus magnified upon the makeup of one's spirit and soul. Here... direction is usually sought after once again.

Not knowing where to turn at times this tug of war remains unprecedented for the those who are being challenged by it. Perhaps for those who have or are sharing in this... would like to share more!!

This one likes to think of the resurrection as the fast track, to be witnessed, for the glory of salvation. The rest (of us) to be gathered to their own people in their own time.

On topic: The tug of war even for the Messiah must have been incredible. I like to think some of the most intriguing scripture is reflected as to how one responds to what is seen and lived. For Yeshua (Jesus) this must have been monumental.

Easter Blessings!

Continued: Krishna in the gita gives ample testimony of what is seen by the divine; the likes that mankind cannot fathom. Yet, the struggles that are placed before each soul are tasks that are viewed from the whole that is this God-Consciousness. Initially, such thoughts as being "watched" by this is daunting and often considered by self... as an invasion of privacy. The self usually bound to the many forms of denial. Freedom as spoken by Yeshua includes this in it's undertaking. When each action is perceived and carried out, the insights to this "witnessing" ultimately draws strength and balance and weighs the tug of war in one's favor, should one be accepting in this.

One must always remember that duties must be carried out, whether one is a householder, a son, or warrior etc. Hence all decisions should be weighed, with this insight, and interest in mind. It is likewise beneficial to examine how each like, and dislike, factors in. Esp. when approaching decision making. Here one can imagine to be without bias, without favoritism and the like, the tugs that are weighed will not be so alluring or daunting. There is much that can be learned regarding family, friends and acquaintances regarding this. One who is everfree is not bound to any of it.

Anyone!

What is your tug of war? How are you dealing with it on a day to day...

Friend raybo,
The tug of war is not exactly a war but a play.
A play that is been played at all times between the unconscious and the conscious.
Moving from the unconscious to the conscious is that play which gets enacted at all times [moments].
Liberation / nirvana is when total consciousness is attained and not a trace of the unconscious remains.
Love & rgds

zenzero,

Yes! As you say! Yet, for all of mankind to have lived... the manifestation that separates is experienced for a time. Most it is fair to say, remain consistent in that. Here, the tug of war resonates.

This post is an Act (scene) considered from the same play you mention. Sharing in it has dividends for all parties concerned... if with right intent.

Who does not hope to be an example to that? Yet, as most stand down from the stage... and are greeted by those of interest... the critique is seldom without a level of bias. It is in the hopes of this post ... to consider and hear the inner dialogue... from the actor him/herself.

What is being experienced this very moment for each... is what matters! This voice, and inner dialogue, though never truly alone, sure feels like it for many!

Perhaps, with that in mind, this post will evolve!

The more one looks within themselves, the more they're aware of this struggle between the temporary and the eternal ? Yet, there is something defined, that when the look within has diminished, whereby the self has no resting place, the impulse from what is known and unknown collapses yet again. One then gets to choose between two outer worlds. Living in one while enlightened by the other. Many seek a resting place between the two, hence the tug of war.

Friend raybo,

Many seek a resting place between the two, hence the tug of war.

Those that seek are still *on the way* so surely it will be a struggle/war for them.

Love & rgds
