if one said this after everything, would that be a good step to humility?
the topic of this thread is actually humility. say - we have begun to see that it is necessary, to learn from the secret mysterious paths or what not, to have humility before the sense of presence of whatever it is, the divinity or etc., and what not,... or God or nature or whatever you would wish to call it..
so then -- how does one do this? i mean i kind of know, an effort to do so, but - it's both silly to say one has got there, probably... and not i suppose not of the nature of it to do so anyway.
but if you have got to the point that humility can be a great safeguard... it's not just a trend but almost a law of nature -- caution helps prevent a fall... the same way though, courage is more than amply rewarded, so that's true - but a healthy respect for the cliff, etc...
share what you wish

I think saying it would only display the supposed humility to observers.
Knowing that you know nothing is real humility.

What I love about psychedelics is when they strip away everything you finally realize this.
Surrender to your God or w/e you wish to call it. It is the only logical choice if we know nothing. If there is something greater than us out there ever beyond our understanding then what other choice do we have. That is why we have free will, perhaps even why we are here. To make that choice.
EDIT: I might of just blown my own fucking mind.

"It is the mark of an educated mind to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle "I like to think of Jesus like with giant eagle's wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and I'm in the front row and I'm HAMMERED DRUNK!" - Cal Naughton Jr. AKA The Magic Man. Abracadabra homes! "Each tear is a drop of poison released." - Anonymous "Could it be you're afraid of what your friends might say if they knew you believe in God above? They should realize before they criticize that God is the only way to Love."
