Hello Michael, I read your new blog Neither Be Ye Doubtful of Mind and enjoyed it very much. For the last 13 years I have given up everything to commune directly with the sacred, holy spirit, in the religious experience, which is called “samadhi” in India. I care not for the things of this world, nor piling up a mountain of excess, nor am I a wage slave. Still I go to the food bank once a week, where I get a bag of groceries, and I go to the free-kitchen when they are serving for a meal. God does not hand me a check, or a bag of groceries, except through the food bank, shelter, and other homeless services. Living a life that is saturated with the sacred, holy spirit, samadhi in the religious experience, in every moment means one leads a simplified life. One does not have a house or a yard to take care of, which only takes away from moments in bliss. I do have a van, which I live in, and that might be too much for some mystics, but it makes my life a little easier, so that I can dedicate more of my life to the sacred, holy spirit, samadhi in the religious experience, when I am not repairing it, or making fuel for it, but then, I find I cannot be in meditation in every moment, unless every moment of activity is mindfully set upon the the sacred, which is saturated in the holy spirit, in the samadhi of the religious experience. |
