While the sentiments are appreciated and noble ...
We are victims of our association with Mind in a deal where we have to sacrifice our Nature for survival, plain and simple. We are told to "believe" at every step from our primordial emergence from the placenta, to our indoctrination as children, and then, our sleepy hypnotic membership in a psycho/political/religious structure that has been evolving and controlling its members for centuries. Yet time is only a state of mind and does not exist at all, in any way, no matter how our dragging of what we call "consciousness" across the verbal hologram, or 4-D space-time, frozen block, like the lasers on DVDs, is considered to be somthing "real".
There is NO Yin without its corresponding Yang if this is a duality at all, and the pitch to sell one without the other is the core and premise of the cloud that occludes our understanding and does its very best to divert us from our nature as aspects of this. There is a seeker born every minute, and yet, all seekers explore for the sake of discovering the place where they started as if it where totally new and known for the first time.
The dream of having all pleasure, (which would prove to be problematic without a break or contrast) without any pain, suffering, loss, disdain, sorrow, etc., is not unrealistic and counter to the nature of the dramatic duality of the Universe itself.
It is not about removing that which we do not want, but more about understanding what it is that we avoid and why. We are, essentially, multi-million-year-old outcomes of a an incredible and intelligent, (so it seems) process. We currently have bio-computers that surpass our current technology so greatly that any insinuation that we could replicate the depth, intricacy, and scope of what we already possess is merely science fantasy, once you know what it is.
Can you be happy if you cannot withstand and understand unhapiness?
Can you be healed and whole if you do not fully understand what sickeness and how it relates to your desired homeostasis?
Don't the rich already have so much MORE than what they should or could want or need? Is this wish a solution or an invitation to entrench one's self into the matrix of culteraly-induced delusions and support the very problems that the prayer wants to alleviative?
Harm and fear are BOTH in our selves. Can we not all find our own harm and deal with fear, rather than fall prey to beliefs where we must be given something that we ALREADY HAVE? Harm is about the misuse of our potentials based on our own conceptions of what hurts us. Fear is ... well, that is bigger that I can touch on, but it is the greatest limit to humanity other than laziness. You decide which is our own, worst, encultrated enemy.
Peace is the other side of war. Can we have one without the other? Don't ideas and their opposites matter? Do we think about how one creates the other in an endless succession? Is peace a reaction or a natural understanding of the State of the Universe? Either peace is, or it is not. We should not be so bold as to think we can create what is. That is, if we do not want to be like those who think they must, and can, create WAR!
Ease is a state of mind. Without a challenge, too much ease is as bad as too much effort and burdon. Go with you nature and each will reveal itself as it is without a need to apply thoughts and confusion to the equation.
All beings ARE already totally Awakened and Liberated and Free! The only barrier is thought and mind and the fact that those two are only violence, (along with the false solutions they provide with religion, philosophy, and even science) and one-up-man-ship. Every step of the way, no matter how you value thought and reason and logic, they are the very cause of all the problems you seek to solve, and the only solutions they provide are to create even more problems. Though, a few are able to use them to understand these tenets and face the Terror at the Threshold that this provides.
The solution is the one you don't want. You avoid it like the plague. However, continue to make oaths to ideas and poiar opposites, like the thousands before you since time immoral. If you wonder why History has been a Yo-Yo of cycles, then maybe you are ready to understand that this is pointing to your utter disappointment, Nature, and perhaps, then, something MIGHT happen. Otherwise, it is just a script and you are playing the part that was written from you. It is not very unique, only because you have not found unique yet, in that case.
Peace will only be found in this World when it is given up, along with War, its opposite. This is the entire Universe right now, where you are. Oh, but you really have so many verbal buffers, barriers, and taboos. Do you know your own organism and how it differs from the mind that was seated upon it to ride, like the Horsemen of the Apocalypse) for the cause and sake of the culture that commands you and makes you even have to consider being an, "Individual"?
Wishing well and prayers are merely an opiate to guilt and lack of action. Oh, you don't really have to act or do a thing. This is a unitive motion, this as it is. The problem is your divergence from that. If you are what you are, then working, dancing, or sleeping, might actually be your part.
Oh, and I will give you all my prayers ad infinitum. There. Did that do the trick? The road to Hell is paved so well with good intentions, you know.
Be without being. Act without acting. Give up understanding for being, and the directness that is not only natural and basic, it is beyond any comprehension. And that is why you miss it, is it not? Too odd, strange, and at 45 degress to everything they gave and taught you in order that you might fit the purpose they intend. Why wonder why, at that point?
You ARE ALL it. Don't worry about an EGO. There is none! You cannot find it without belief and theory to support the idea. Only the very deluded and those entrenched in the simulation are prone to playing that Maya.
This IS a simulation. Either be played, or go meta-level and see that you can "play" yourself outside of the culteral matrix. Then, there is Peace Profound. There is the power of the passive. There is your NATURE and that, most of all, should suffice when it comes to values and morals. The rest of the values and morals are artificial inducements to do the program. That's all.
The Cosmic is ALL GOOD ALWAYS as it is, that is as you concieve of it. It is in total balance and harmony forever. Evil is relative to your context on an interactive and situational projection of conceptual perspective. Once this becomes clear and predominates then, what it is equates, without equivocation, to the ALL GOOD BUDDHA SMILE and the SACRED HEART OF JESUS, etc. You cannot find or be given, or sold, what you already are.
