Where before I was inexorably moving downhill, I am now moving uphill. I have seen some of the end state I seek, not there yet, kind of stuck swimming around the tar much of time. But I can move in the tar now, where before I couldn't. Unfortunately there seem to be other things swimming around in the tar with me. You know I would much rather be able to make pleasure at will than move the marble at will. But its hard not to live in fear, terror, worry and anxiety as long as one is nailed in a body. Being able to live willingly and fearlessly is far more important than being able to move the marble or demonstrate the inane to the insane. People figure that if one could move the marble, throw a lot of force around, then one would be 'safer' in this universe, sort of a superman. They seek power as a solution to fear and unwillingness. They believe that willingness to be here comes from power. Truth is power comes from willingness to be here. Willingness comes from wisdom and perception of beauty in things as they are, which results from understandings. The end of flinch. Now THAT's power eh? With that willingness comes all the power one could want, one uses that power to breath the universe into existence as it is, with every breath that one takes. Putting the mountain there is much more important than being able to move it. God is much to busy putting the mountain where it is to be bothered moving it, don't you see? The NEED TO CHANGE external things in order to be happy is an aberration. Using power to change external things in order to be happy is putting power at the beck and call of aberration. Happiness must come first with understandings, then external change will follow. Homer
