Be That
Don Iannone

I am that.
You are that.
Be that...
without seeking.
Know there is nothing
to seek
or know
beyond that.
Truth will both lead
and follow you.

Wonderful words Don... so true!
Thank you!

Margie...thanks.

This is not an easy one for many to understand. It took me a while. It's the ultimate "no bullshit" view of reality.

Everyone has their bullshit...their reasons for being and wanting to be. But this view says: Be that which you are without seeking and without judging and without separating and differentiating anything.

As they say, truth is a tough act to follow.

Very nice Don! Nothing to seek... nothing to know... no where to go... Resting in That...

Don, I really liked that. I like this no 'Bullshit' view no beating around the bush, straight on target. Bullseye!!!!

Thanks Dumbdodi. Once in a while the straight rifle shot is what is needed. If you had to describe your spiritual belief system, what would you say? Are you Hindu for example?

Don Iannone, D.Div., Ph.D. said...

Dan...thanks. And That we are.

dumbdodi said...

Don I would say I believe in God and because of my upbringing happen to choose Hinduism to express my feelings towards god. I now do have choice of following different paths, but Hinduism is the one for me. What about you, you seem to be into hinduism, buddhisma...What is your spiritual inclination more towards

Thanks Dumbdodi. Appreciate you sharing. Very much so. I started a thread above in another post that raises this question to all and I provide my spiritual views there. Jump in, please. Thanks.

be that which you are... accept, love and cherish what you find there... yes, i can relate... but haven't quite got there :)

Polona...thanks. Most of us are still working on being That. Actually it happens when we stop working on it and can just be That.
