: Assinity,
:
: I see you have Wayne repeating himself. I
: will try not to not to.
:
: There is reaching down and putting down.
: They are not the same though they can be
: confused with each other. Tone is often, but
: not always, a way of telling which is which.
: Beware of wolves in lambs clothing.
:
: The One and the Many come and go. God, the
: eternal Tao if you prefer, the Great Spirit
: in the Sky, do not come and go. I AM THAT I
: AM is not a thing that comes and goes. It is
: eternal. Without time. Beyond time.
: Timeless.
:
: We are each a part of that which has no
: parts. A unitive one. This is the
: fundamental. There is no other. Everything
: else is a play on the underlying unity of
: existense. The Father and I are a unitive
: one. Distinct, but not separate. Except in
: our conditioned thinking. To be Enlightened
: is to awaken from the dream of separation
: from our true Self. The Self of selves. The
: Self that is not a self in the ordinary
: sense of a limited self. A Self beyond self.
: The Tao beyond all taos.
:
: All is not One. The game being played is not
: Solitaire. Solitaire is a human invention.
: From the first all is a unitive one. The
: game being played by existence is Hearts. By
: the Tao. By God. The Kingdom of God is a
: family, not a person. From the Tao comes the
: One and the Many. The great Sages are those
: that have come to a full realization of as
: much. The rest of us are at various stages
: along the path of the Prodigal Son.
: Outwardly or inwardly. The Full Return from
: the journey of the oxherder starts from the
: Many goes through the One and finally rests
: in the Tao. Home again, home again,
: jigety-jig. Home again, home again,
: jigety-jog.

I see the unity of us, but dont see a "true self" anywhere. If true self there is then I am you and you are me. I've no problem with God but if there is God then I am it.
I am of the opinion that time does not exist apart from our minds, an illusion.
My journey will finish where it started I'm sure, I'm currently riding the bull.
