What is life?

[Bing Lalo]

Life is evolution no matter what. Is that simple, you can get it or not, but that dosen change anything. We are here to progress, we can choose the easy way or the hard way, but the way will come no matter what.

The best to everybody, hugs and love...

Hiya Bing, I always recommend the hard way to anyone who asks. Now wait just a second...Maybe that's why nobody asks me about that any more. http://www.bigtenfever.com/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif

Life is what's happening to us while we are hanging around trying to figure out what life is.

"The more I know life - the more I understand that I know nothing "



"Someone who goes
with half a loaf of bread
to a small place that fits
like a nest around him,
someone who wants
no more, who's not
himself longed for
by anyone else.

He is a letter
to everyone.

You open it.
It says,

Live."

Saying life is evolution no matter what, and that we are here to progress, and that there is an easy or hard way is... a little tricky.

It sort of suggests that we are all going in a straight line, which may not be true for everyone.
For some evolution is mucking around in confusion, plankton, shrimp, human, emu, ant, human, French cat, slug.....alien slug! They are caught up in the cycle of birth, old age sickness and death, being driven by the hurricane of bad karma. This is the 'life' of most sentient beings. They do not realise that taking on a physical form is due to ignorance of their true nature. So consciousness simply continues in a vicious cycle of existence due to desire and aversion, attraction and repulsion. This is all based of 'selfishness', so it is a hard path.

'Evolving' would depend on intention to understand, on our ability to learn about our true divine qualities. We know we are progressing when we experience an increase of intelligence, clarity and compassion. So a good heart is an easy path.


Of course you may see this differently,

You left out some of the more "interesting" ones Tony, but I catch your drift. http://nexus.2012info.ca/forum/images/smilies/newadditions/smile.gif Some day when this thing we're doing is all wrapped up, I'm going to pull out the old photo album, and take me a nice long stroll down memory lane, through all of those wonderful times. I'll probably need a box of tissues.
