Mari you said in response to Matt:
Mari says: Baby steps is what i'm talking about. Work on what is with-in
reach; the realm of manifestable reality. If the brainpower that is here
combined forces working towards some end goal agendum using MoQ tenets to
stay the course until complete and actualized; a Quality of change could
likely result. That would be "practical use" in my book.
"World hunger" "World peace" "President of the US" are a little lofty at
this time and i think there in lies part of the problem: thinking too big!
Creating a collective VOICE that is well rooted in it's philosophy is what's
needed to start to effect change. My guess is that money will follow if it's
presented right. WELL MARKETED. But in the mean time.....
This I think is exactly how we who are looking for practical applications must go about it, apply Quality to ourselves, baby steps indeed!
I'm currently looking into the teachings of J. Krishnamurti and this is some of what he had to say on the subject:
" When you start very near :
We generally start with the farthest - the supreme principle, the greatest ideal, and get lost in some hazy dream of imaginative thought. But when you start very near, with the nearest, which is you, then the whole world is open, for you are the world, and the world beyond you is only nature. Nature is not imaginary: it is actual; and what is happening to you now is actual. From the actual you must begin - with what is happening now - and the now is timeless."
I personally am quite pleased with the way the discussion is going now, I'm even able to get my head around some of what is being said.
Keep it up Mari I'm barracking for you!
