Subject: [K-list] Be happy riding your costly sports car
From: rkshankar

Dear Rick

> such as having an expensive sports car or a yacht.
There is nothing wrong in being happy when you have a costly sports car
That you should not be happy when you have a costly sports car is what you
got from the society around
And, this is involution in the group-mind.
Releasing oneself from involution in it essentially releases one from
involution in one's own sense-mind.
That is the beginning of the foundation for a steady flame of spiritual
aspiration
To have this permanent sense of alertness rooted in discrimination between
group-mind and individual mind is essential
Discontent is rooted in involution in one's own sense-mind expanded and
aggravated by involution in society's group-mind.

> Being happy without being egotistical about it
> Just to be happy, without having a reason
> When that reason is there, I often form an identity from it,
You may get a costly sports car just because the Lord has willed it
And, you cannot fight against the Will of God
Will you cry then because you got a costly sports car?

> how to think happy without becoming attached to those outside objects
But, why should you form an identity with that possession?
For, all objects are always in a mutating condition
And, any identification with it and attachment to it,
is to rush to the peak of sensory wrold and dive headlong into the valley of
sensual sorrow

> What's this got to do with K
Such sensual identification plunges the K into the nether regions of
awareness

Thanks and kind regards
