Anyway, all that stuff is why I don't try or test IM stuff. I'd rather find peace and go from there and see goals that make sense and are part of my spirit. I don't know how to tell what are spiritual goals, but something tells me goals that produce more harmony for me and people and the earth are spiritual. And I hope those goals are not going to feel like something I need and requires me to detach from them.
Thanks for the feedback on my smiley and my postings. This of yours, BTW, is one of the best things I've read in ages. I know, it's bleedin' agony sometimes working out which bits are what and which bits I believe and which bits are mumbo-jumbo. But I like the working solution you describe. And I think as we identify less and less with our small ego self (and don't massage it with deliberate "C'MON!" messages) the more we identify with those larger goals. We don't necessarily become saints sacrificing ourselves for the good of the Universe, but we move more in that direction.
