It's a curious trick...Why do we fear nakedness?<br />It's a curious trick life plays on us. We all ground our practices on the assumption that conscience influences reality, nonetheless in our daily life we let others—actively or passively—blur our vision. For the sake of some sort of secrecy/sacredness, we leave in our temples that refined personality we struggle so much to build; a personality that we're so good at switching on and off and protecting from the sun. But what if this was the self to put most to the test? What if this was the tool we have wear building our life every minute, every hour, very day?<br />Going once again back to simplicity, maybe it's just a matter of courage and responsibility. Why don't we get rid of “magical names”? Why don't we just stop hiding ourselves behind magical lifesaving toys and start asking the most basic and brutal questions about what we are? Wouldn't it be possible that in our temples we are just adding layers to the ones the world has already wrapped us into? <br />Yes, maybe it's time to strip naked and perform our rites under the sun.<br />Maybe it's time to banish ourselves.<br />So many questions arise from this touching post.<br />Thank you.Le Folhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541657730231667647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239208160753453078.post-31448431863106827052011-12-11T09:24:57.884+01:002011-12-11T09:24:57.884+01:00What a lovely post!What a lovely post!Darren Scrivenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13068121845070010416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239208160753453078.post-89462809713547746862011-12-10T21:10:55.952+01:002011-12-10T21:10:55.952+01:00Great and succinct post.

Some rules of thumb that I picked up in childhood have helped me through, they were:<br /><br />- Accept people for who they are<br />- Always look for the best in someone<br />- Give the benefit of the doubt (at least once) and<br />- If you realized how little time people spent actually thinking about you, then you'd stress a lot less<br /><br />STAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239208160753453078.post-10502406392537180592011-12-10T19:02:40.656+01:002011-12-10T19:02:40.656+01:00short, simply beautiful written & so true..and...short, simply beautiful written & so true..and again - inspiring!Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13516510688679993374noreply@blogger.com
