Sorting Your Self Out

 There six psychological neurotic realms that we live in as sentient being. During a day we may pass in and out of them without noticing. We may also find that we get stuck in one for a lifetime.

 Let’s use ‘acquiring knowledge’ as an example. This may reveal what type of person we are.

Hell realms: It’s never right

Hungry ghosts: Want it desperately but cannot digest it.

Animal realm: They acquire it and store it, but never look at it.

Human realm: They indulge in it, but get frustrated because it never quite satisfies.

Jealous gods: They collect it and use it as a weapon.

Gods: They have knowledge and enjoy it, but cannot keep it.

Not to worry, as always there are the opposite qualities:

God/Animal.. =ignorance…= all encompassing space

Hell…………….=anger……….= mirror-like wisdom

Hungry ghost.= pride………= wisdom of equanimity

Human………..= passion…..=discriminating wisdom

Jealous god….=envy……….=all accomplish wisdom

The point is if we can identify someone’s patterning, we can understand where they are coming from…and why, you cannot get on! So sometimes, silence is golden!
