It is possible for humans to meet with love, when both come from the heart, not mind. But it is not typical.

Haha…that damn guru!

I would say that as the “light” comes from that which is both guru and student, it may seem to come from within or from another.

This would seem to point to something completely new. If there could be a complete relationship, between the guru and the student, it becomes something unique; a moment by moment living, or an exploration that may be greater than what one might discover alone.

There is no guru OR student as we are discussing here. If there is this complete togetherness in this investigation, it is unfolding for both and not one. It is without conclusion for both, as it is curiosity that drives the union, or perhaps a love to see what happens.

If only it were easy (or possible?) for humans to meet with love, and not with conclusions.

This can be very true. But sometimes, it’s that the guru seems to have the answers but we don’t “get it”. It must be the guru’s fault.

If we think of darkness as an absence of light, sometimes darkness makes us look and thus see light.

I’ve found that hope is not the issue, it is the clinging that causes grief.

One might ask, if no one understands, why are there readers?

I suppose it is because the reader desperately wants to understand; “understand” might not be the right word; they want to receive the light, or have their own darkness dispelled. But never once do they ask, “Is it possible for another to dispel my darkness?”

They may answer YES to the above question, but is that clinging hope just another form of darkness?

What method might one use to ask a person to look at their experience rather than simply being told?

We are having some feedback…
