I for one am glad to see you have cracked...... hard :lol: You'll feel like heaven tomorrow and a huge relief. The jig is up and the cat is out of the bag. Everyone knows now without a doubt that Ped is actually a human being just like they are and not reporting to us as a spark of light from Nirvana-ville.

You freed yourself Ped from the false expectations you had of yourself or thought others had of you and that was the only phony thing ever going on-the false expectations. The wisdom you have posted here over the years was always real and it really came from you. That can't be denied.

Get use to this for as long as you keep trying to define yourself as only things like ordained Monk in training, Buddhist Boy, ect. It's too limiting and you are bound to keep cracking under the pressure of it's restrictions. You can be ordained monk, Buddhist boy, AND guy who likes tits beer and Viagra sex sessions.

It's okay, we are making up the rules for ourselves as we go along. Don't let others make you up to be who they say you should be, including Buddha. Make yourself up for yourself. That's what Buddha freed himself to do and the world got a genuine Buddha. He did what felt right for him to do.

You aren't him and trying to be him is bound to lead to failure because you are you and you always will be no matter what you say or do. When you free yourself from the expectations, the world will get a Ped with a Buddhist influence, but a genuine Ped none the less who will feel more or less happy again with himself and life.

:congrats:

Jiggy, I agree with almost everything in your post. 

Just because I am a picky, difficult human, I feel compelled to mention that Ped is much too young to take Viagra, but he did claim to enjoy Vicodin (very different effects :eek:).  Now I will laugh at myself for this making this incredibly trivial point.

If you really are all about "tits, beer, and vicodin," then have fun with it(I enjoy all these things in moderation myself). But in my own experience, I've found that when I sought pleasure in the world, I always ended up feeling empty inside(second noble truth). However, when I turned my eyes to the Spirit, I found happiness(third and fourth noble truth). I wish you well in finding your way, whatever that way may be.

Ya know, if we never stumble trip and fall, we'll never have the opportunity to laugh at our own selves, or know the taste of humble pie, and the feeling of getting up again. Oh the beauty of those genuine moments. They can't be bought or sold.

Spirit is so alive and present in those three moments. If/when we become disillusioned with spirituality, the fall is sure to come. Yet, if we can laugh at ourselves with others while back is on the floor and panties showing, partake in the eating of humble pie and pull ourselves back up again,  we are rewarded with the re-minding of what truly being in the presence and heart of spirit is really all about.

Recovering from a fall is a like a test where we get to find out what we are really made of when we forgot.

Break yourself down to a nothing and rebuild yourself up again to anything and everything, time and time again and you can't help but realize the impermanence and illusive nature of all the structures we build to inhabit, just to eventually shatter and destroy so we can rebuild ourselves a new again. After a while we realize the one thing that remains through it all and that's the spirit within that takes us through it.

Through our independent journeys we learn to trust in that spirit, being there, before and above anything else. When we do, the destination point is taken with us wherever we go and there is no more feeling lost in this world. THAT'S when we can relax and start enjoying the the journey for the journey itself.

Sometimes, it takes the recovery effort from hard falls, and natural disasters as in, self shattering, as displayed in, peds post, to remember that, before we are once again merrily on our way to nowhere just enjoying the journey with others we meet along the way.

Yet, their are the few, who take the (ego) structures they built so seriously, and made them so important and vested so much into them, that they just can't seem to find any easy come easy go, amusement in watching them crumble, and never get to experience the genuine moments of being in spirit I spoke off. So they wander the earth as lost and bitter souls. :sad:

The ironic thing here with Ped is that Buddhism teaches all about impermanence and detachment, yet, so many students get caught up in the idea that there is a permanent state of purity and enlightenment to be attained and become attached to this belief, striving for it in egoic vain, and they end up suffering at the hands that teaches against it.

It's the cosmic joke and we are destined to face it when we start believing in right and wrong ways to be and live. The question is, will we be able to laugh along with the joke when we realize, the jokes on us, or get bitter about being had.


:heart:

That will keep you in balance, that is how I see this in a quick glimpse.
I agree on many posts, here.
Sometimes, if the ground gets shaky, one's best position is to remain on one's ass for a while, where one has fallen to, to reorient himself again :wink: To move 'on all four' if necessary.
The time will come again, where one will stand up again to see farther again and integrate that what one see into ones self again for better balance to his next climb.

The right means to proceed on your path almost always will find you, once you make a choice.

Forgive my metaphorical speaking. I hope I still make some sense to you :heart:

I LOVE that passage Blue! :thumbup: Thats where I feel like I am at these days, on all fours waiting for everything to settle down with this move, having bitten off more then I chew at one time and feeling like an ass for it. I give!!! UNCLE! :crazy:

Thats what I have been doing here posting so much lately-hiding from everything I expected to get done by now. I figure, if I hide out long enough, the unrealistic expectations will get tired of waiting for me to come out to meet them and they will just go away and I'll get some rest from their nagging at me around here. :lol: I say to them, "Good riddance! Don't let the door hit ya one way out!"

Also, I was on acid last night and thought it was Swami saying he was no longer going to keep the fact that Ped was his puppet secret. Then I considered the fact that perhaps Ped was wanting to make it seem as though he were Swami revealing himself. This, I feel, serves to explain some of my posts in this thread. :lol:
