A Worldwide Online Meeting - March 1, 2008
As always, I am happy to see you here, or to see your names here, in any event. I am going to begin with reading a couple of emails that I have received in recent times, and responding to them here. You know, it is a kind of spiritual cliche to say that there is only one question. This cliche started out as an articulation of a momentary insight that was clear, and startling, and useful to people. However, my sense of it is that there are many questions. There are infinite questions, but there is really only one answer, which is not to say that, for the one who is harboring a burning question about reality or the relationship to it, or what can be done to realize freedom, a particular question is not unique and individual to the person who is asking it. It is not to say that it is the same question; it is not the same question. But it is going to be the same answer. So, I would like to be able to answer as many of the questions I receive as possible, over time, in a public forum, so that perhaps when you hear the questions here, they will resonate with your own belief that you are confused and something will be seen by you. So, enough of that. Onward and upward! Allons-y! Complete transcription of a Worldwide Online Meeting with John Sherman on March 1, 2008. Continued ... |
