Shashank: Yes, Vineeto. You have tracked the conversation flow very accurately !
Hi Shashank,
Thank you, it wasn’t easy to track it in the right order, lol.
Shashank: A technical mistake I admit is to take benignity of pure intent in its harmless sense despite Richard detailing that it is used in it’s favorable sense… I know why this confusion happened – because here in India with English not my primary language, all my life I’ve only heard of the word benign tumor which is to mean a harmless tumor… but I’m glad to be corrected now on this!
I didn’t intend to correct you – I am confident you understand pure intent experientially – it just happened being part of the conversation that ‘harmless’ is only a very minor aspect of the benignity of the universe. Great you learnt something new today.
You see, this benevolence and benignity of the universe becomes also apparent when a ‘self’ immolates and their flesh-and-blood body becomes the universe experiencing itself as a sensate and reflective human being – it’s a wonderful collateral attribute and delicious in the ongoing experience.
The universe is not only ‘out there’ in the farthest reaches of what the telescopes can observe – it is right here, closer than your heartbeat – your own flesh-and-blood body, keeping you alive. Just contemplate how many detailed actions and processes are happening of their own accord (despite ‘your’ interference) and overall doing a splendid ‘job’.
Enjoy.
Cheers Vineeto
