You are touching upon the riddle of Life itself.

 

What is it to act free of influence?

 

This is not easy to discover.

 

You must create meaning and purpose.

 

That is your birthright.

I like this post, Captain, for I find myself facing these issues and how they relate to my life myself at the moment. How many among us truly have meaningful, purposeful lives? Yet we all seem to want it at some level.

 

I haven't seen the movie for a long time, but I remember finding it quite moving. The Butterfly Effect as a concept is very beautiful as well.

Once more I shall spell it out.

I unfold the meaning.

 

The creative impulse in Man is a personal imperative.

Oh, I know. I'm definitely creating that for myself, every day, in real-time. However, purpose takes a while to deepen.

 

Also, what is it to act free from influence?

You talkin' ta me?

 

You talkin' ta me?

 

Ha ha ha!

 

I ain't here to answer your questions.

 

Bozo.

 

I'm just here to pose the riddles.

 

Thinking is underrated.

 

Way of self enquiry is Yoga of Kings and King of Yogas.

Like Alan Watts says... it's like trying to bite your own teeth.

With the Great Skydog's agreement, of course.

Thanks.

 

In humble service.

Puffs on a cigarette.

 

A little story.

 

Just fer da Great Skydog.

 

I can't harm a fly.

 

Literally.

 

I just can't behave that way.

 

My choices are limited as an angelic being.

 

Dats just da way it is.

 

Once upon a time....

 

A long haired hippy dude lookin' super cool tryin' ta attract da chix...

 

Was set upon by a chap and his friends because he looked different.

 

Maybe coz he looked a bit like a gurl.

 

They were very manly in their smart but working class suits for the weekend pullin' birdz an' startin' fights.

 

Turns out the guy who smashed my head in, knocked a few teeth out, rendered me unconscious and gave me my first near death experience...

 

Was an experienced kick boxer who often started rumbles.

 

Anyway.

 

When he attacked me from behind utterly out of the blue shortly after hurling some insults my way, I found myself utterly incapable of lifting a finger in my defense.

 

I have always been this way since I was born in this incarnation.

 

I fear hurting people.

 

I know you shouldn't do it.

 

Ahimsa Way of Perfect Dao.

 

That ignorant fucker very very nearly killed me you know.

 

I lost two teeth because of it.

 

Sometimes its difficult to chew my nuts.

 

With Great Cow Spirit help I hope to regrow them.

 

They are already regenerating nicely.

 

Anyway.

 

Where was I?

 

After I was very nearly killed for being unable to harm even in self defense,* I pondered this question of whether it is right to fight in self defense, or perhaps defense of the innocent.

 

I concluded that it was.

 

This too, was one of the 2000 Things.

 

So my function is teaching.

 

I can only help.

 

Not harm.

 

Dat Be Way of ULTIMATE DAO.

 

*Irony - my sin was to slap my son with my open hand a dozen or so times, fairly hard on open skin on thigh and upper arm. I wept with the guilt. It was one of the 2000 things that both killed me and illuminated me since it is the same thing. I sincerely repented and ceased the behaviour many many years ago.
