Is it possible that the only reason that we cannot overcome this suffering is because we do not see our own suffering. We may think the word, we may see suffering in others, but we must not be fully aware of it in ourselves. Once again, separation can be a reason for this, for, we observe others from the standpoint of the I. It seems to me that one must not only spectate on external events, but internal as well. We are just like everyone else, we have all been conditioned all of our lives and our now slaves to our conditioning. The main thing we learned that is causing our suffering is to view everything as separate from ourselves. 'Something' must be viewing the world through our brain and our eyes. Our own mind cannot be the only one observing, for who would observe the observing? I do not know how we can discuss this subject, but I highly suggest we try.
In Hikaru's humble opinion, You are 100% correct. Hikaru offers Isness' notion That to become One, We must feel all that is felt By the rest of Us, Including pain and suffering, And work to change this, So there is no more suffering.
The question leads to, "Who am I", because if, beyond the conditioning, beyond the desires, beyond even physical appearence, we all are exactly the same, then we are all one. We all share one common thread which is the basis of our entire living existence, the stream of life, the observer observing through our minds, and that I believe is who we truly are.
However to believe brings about conflict, because we hope for the outside to match the inside. Now is the moment of truth, have we convinced our minds of this oneness, do we see it for truth and not just belief. Does the outside match the inside, for if it did, wouldn't we be one?
we each came from a womb . oneness is certainly a part of that , even as the experience of that is now only a symbol (d). it can be expressed as a~da~ , the oneness place . we knew very well the self/not self feeling , having two heartbeats then . we can relate that to a wholistic life conciousness , or not . as we choose , eh ? who will choose to make war on the mother ? some people do .
karl Oneness is, in short, being One with everything. Absolutely everything. Being One with every other human being on the planet, being one with the universe (and its spirit if you believe in that), being One with *absolutely everything* is Oneness. It may seem like a farfetched concept, and Oneness is not easily explained by those who admittedly are not One with all. Hikaru apologizes if his explaination is not adequate.
oneness is so simple , very very simple . do you deny any part of existence ? if so , you are schiz . please , give in kind to every relationship that is offered you . by this , you love .
