Subj : Commentray on the Daily Wisdom To : All From : Rachel L. Akers Date : Sat Jun 09 2001 11:07 pm wisdom@yahoogroups.com "Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe, is that none of it has tried to contact us." - Calvin and Hobbes From: Ami & Raija Shachar, Tel-Aviv ISRAEL Robin: And we who think so highly of ourselves....It might be possible that this planet is a sort of cosmic 'insane asylum.' It is here where the very mad incarnate, in some hope they might get better. Of course, therapists incarnate here too. They are called Christs, Avatars or Buddhas. What they come to say, in itself, could be the salvation of all. But, their words are very quickly distorted and forgotten. Even the reverse of what our therapists have said has been spoken in their names. Not a generation has passed before the wisdom of the Buddha or the Christ became unrecognizable and became the doctrine of a few, the ones who would be the repositories of the wisdom, but who have forgotten what the wisdom is. Is this sad? You bet it is. --- Msged/2 4.00 * Origin: Elfwhere - The POINTy eared POINT (3:640/531.2379) .
