Only if I had done my part, he would have done his. Instead, I was at the mercy of "nature", natural cause and effect (yes, the "karma" in Hindu philosophies). I think I just let them- the viruses weaken me rather than doubling or tripling my efforts. The flu viruses whidespread these days can be very insideous. They affect brain and cause psychological depression, and this symptom can persist, sometimes for a couple of weeks after most of the respiratory symptoms and muscle aches subside. But I have the advantage of knowing this; there was a part of my mind the observes this depression , and can laugh at it. "Hey, you, wake up ! Just look at the state you're getting into, and all because of a bug in the machinery. Do you really think the little self is You ? Come away from it, away from those emotions. Walk in the garden with me. Do not fall asleep dreaming of your troubles. ..." Sometimes I'm so out of touch with that being, when it comes I think it is separate. But more often, I think it could be ny true self. _It is the change in shape that shows what the character is thinking. It is the thinking that gives the illusion of life. It is life which gives meaning to the expression._ -Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson |
