but here is not there..[and never will be]
we think of so-called xtians...[or buddists]..or mahamoudians...yet even there none are all equal*...mainly because we chose to walk divergebnt paths..each having our own path..to utopia
because we each have a differing vision of what utopia shall be
im tired of creating words...so will quote words instead
noting these words[from
http://new-birth.net/booklet/30_years_among_the_dead.PDF
are quoted by one formerly addicted to opium..[their idea of utopia is nothingness]...quite zen when we think of it...when the true utopia...has love of good...and love of neighbour at its core
quote
If people..would have more love..*for each other..and less condemnation..then..they would be more like brothers..and sisters.
That is the life in the higher realms.
We cannot reach..that stage..until we have gotten rid of all desires,..all hatred,..all selfishness,..all envy.
We cannot progress..until we have thrown away..all these things..and
said:..“God help me..*to love my enemies..and friends better than myself.”..Then we will be ready..to travel the road...{TO UTOPIA}..
Some people think..that after they learn..the lesson of truth..then..they will step into the glory of Heaven...But Heaven..is a condition....a state of mind...a way of thinking..then doing..good for other..
In conquering my desire..for morphine,..I had to do so..*little by little,..step by step,..until I could say:..“No more morphine for me.”
we are addicted to many things...many far worse than drugs
After I had conquered,..my selfish needs..my friends and relatives met me..and said:..“Now you are ready..to come with us to the home that has been prepared for you.”
Before that time..I had*..to live all by myself.
I was not in the dark dungeon of the lower realms..like some are,..but all around me was..*myself,..and nothing else.
I had to learn..and strive to overcome.
It says in the Big Book..that Christ went to the lower spheres to give help and teach...*We all..*..have to teach..*and help the fallen ones,..*and give them..*strength..to overcome their..self obsesing desires.
