I know exactly what you mean...the ego has so many layers of false judgements and illusory thoughts that we cant even begin to see . its the goggles on our eyes that we rarely take off....when people work independently they seek comfort....out of fear...when we take the goggles off were presented with such a huge confusion because our minds have been traveling west with the world turned upside down, so then we think we should travel east when the west leads us nowhere but back to the same place...but that aint the answer either...the answer is inside out....all of life shrinks to one point and then at the core of that point...the universe expands infinately inward...the answer is in the question....

it really is impossible to put things into perspective with language...it actually probably distorts it more. only because when things are defined thats adding one more layer of perception into a mind thats already clouded....and we know perception is nothing

theres one thing i dont understand about buddhism...

what was buddhas life about after he became enlightened....I know he continued to teach the ways and practice meditation the remainder of his life....but

what is the ultimate goal of buddhism? what is the ultimate final product supposed to produce...maybe there isnt supposed to be one....

the ultimate appreciation for life?
