"I am like an idiot, my mind is so empty." - Chater 20 of the Tao Te Ching
All this talk about consciousness and different dimensions and God has really messed with my head. I am a simpleton, and I can't deal with so much theoretical talk- I just wanna live a good life dammit!
Too much thinking and not enough living seems to directly run counter against the free flowing philosphy of taoism. Taoism is about simplicity, its about dropping things, not picking up more stuff. So although I am extremely grateful for all your help, I'm afraid I would rather just forget I ever raised the question. And ironically, having let go of my desire to "grasp" the philosophy of non-dualism, I'm beginning to have a better "feel" for it.
Obviously, this is just me and my philosophy. I like it simple
But then again, I don't really see myself being enlightened in this lifetime by living likfe this, but to heck with that!
Have a nice day!
