I quite enjoyed the poem you wrote as well.<br />Giving up the ephemeral world, we get freed of its conflict and gain the eternal self.<br />When we see no purpose to anything in the world, we stop pursuing, we arrive. <br />When we give up searching, we find, the truth alights on us<br />When we are neither held to the ground nor trying to reach the sky, when we are as blank as the space, we are free. When we desire not this way, nor that, we are free of the pull on either side.<br />When we accept our loneliness we are complete. Its in turning in, centering in onself, embracing ourself, that we embrace allGracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16013757422313634184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156817361262781747.post-34477916973897366242012-07-24T22:02:14.364-07:002012-07-24T22:02:14.364-07:00The search for mental peace can best be attained t...The search for mental peace can best be attained through meditation as you rightly said Jerly!Rahul Bhatiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09690287853990880735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156817361262781747.post-77782450285076605272012-07-22T04:19:01.209-07:002012-07-22T04:19:01.209-07:00This is quite a challenge Jerly... arriving at fre...This is quite a challenge Jerly... arriving at freedom is a great feat... and hits right home.<br /><br />I'd like to center on the conflict as a reflection. I have felt that way and I am in right now... and somehow, yes, the only option is to 'let go'...<br /><br />Your artwork has depicted it so well. I commend you for that... the colors you've used are strong and alive.<br /><br />I have come back to this again to reflect on your other points... for now, let me focus on how I could open myself up to embrace the freedom that God gives :)Melissa Tandochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13747825707650125721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156817361262781747.post-62186743060071152862012-07-22T01:58:28.619-07:002012-07-22T01:58:28.619-07:00Meditation is a great practice.

An important reality to note. <br /><br />Great post! I love reading through your journey of experiences/thoughts as you spiritually dig deep. <br /><br />Loved the painting...I never knew you were so talented! And the poem too!<br /><br />I definitely can identify with the need to not attach to the impermanent, such clinging, even to things that seem attractive and positive, only leads to suffering as all material things eventually fade.<br /><br />I'm going to read this post a few more times. One definitely to meditate on.

I know I might not have been very clear. After reading ur comment I read my post again and realized where u might have felt that 'we leave the Hand of Jesus in finding our freedom'. Our freedom is in finding Jesus as our only real companion. Since it is a post involving Khrishnamurthy it has its wavy stance, I have added a few touches now to the post to make it less wavy as to where it is standing. Thanks Fher for making me read my post with ur eyes and see where it failed to explain itselfJerlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13897355836151249751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156817361262781747.post-12988069695313999162012-07-20T04:19:55.493-07:002012-07-20T04:19:55.493-07:00Dear Jerly, I like your interpretation here in you...Dear Jerly, I like your interpretation here in your drawing...it appears to me as a Political statement...Freedom!!!<br /><br />Now about Arriving on Freedom...I have little problem in relying on oneself to find Freedom. <br />All have sin and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)<br />If the answer lies within a sinful man, then we could be at lost bcoz there are ways w/c seems right to a man but actually is a way of death. (Prov 14:12)<br />I prefer To be shepherd by Jesus even though I walk thru valleys of death...There'll be persecution all around us for standing in our faith but that's inevitable bcoz a servant can not be greater than His master. Long-suffering is a virtue that a Christian should possess. <br /><br />Yes! Do unto others what you want others do unto you. :)So if you we're slapped, give the other cheek also...if that will satisfy the person's anger. Not fighting back bcoz you don't want to be hurt too. The irony of giving our life for others, so that we may live.<br /><br />God be with you...<br />FherFhermissionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09037929002840915435noreply@blogger.com
