Seeking phase
    #23749823 - 10/18/16 06:48 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Is it a natural part of growing up to go through your "seeking days"?

Where you like, are looking for *something* and you may not even know what you want?

What do you do if you find it? Does that mean your seeking days are over?

Reminds me of cultural differences and the fact that under every human being there's a real person in there with their own background, experiences and conditionings.

Conditionings never go away, it's up to the individual to cultivate beneficial ones. This all ties in with the hunt for success and status, you just have to first figure out what these things mean for you and if you really need them.

Soul mates, drugs, sex, television, music... it's all part of seeking. Nothing really is forbidden when you know your limits.

But this is only an excuse if the individual does not maintain an effort to exercise caution and discernment. These qualities are masculine most likely. Women get carried away easily which is why it is fun to be all cute like and tease.

Seems so. Although it could be cultural. Modern secular society does a poor job of providing meaning so people are more likely to seek it out on their own. The beneficial conditioning you speak of would be effortless in a healthy society.

One day seekers become finders. Then the real work begins.  The 24/7 training is practiced and distilled and perfected and blooms the teaching with each step we take. imho

Seeking the path, the path is found, no longer seeking, becoming lighter. Spreading love and teaching your wisdom.

Reincarnate 1000 times repeat rehearse


--------------------
"In The Material World One seeks retirement and grows Old
In The Magical World One seeks Enlightenment and grows Wiser
In The Miraculous World One seeks nothing and grows Lighter
As we all tread the Homeward Path we will explore many Realms
And one day... we will all Realize that all experiences are Simply
Different ways in which The
All-That Is
Perceives Itself"

even if you acknowledge the thing youre seeking is love, you'll still probably never find it. even if you acknowledge that you don't need to go seeking love because you are love, will you live in that reality? probably not.

not when the affirmations arent true. seeking nonseeking just doesnt work ime. I feel like the only road to peace of mind lies in the acceptance of the human condition, a major part of which is a sense of lack.

We're looking for the answer to why we ask so many questions. Common sense is actually the answer to everything, but it requires not having an opinion.
