Yes! I think that's a very nice way of putting those 4 Latin words. So often suffering leads to conversion (transformation). I suppose that's what it's there for...

Thank you for that response, as I wonder at times if I am the only one who see's these correlations of the deeper essence of words in regards to experience as that is all words do is point to the truth, but the truth is ours to find through the lessons of experience.

Studied Pythagoras/numerology/sacred geometry a little. I must admit it is interesting and could take life times to figure out/understand but not what I am looking for. Read Manly P. Halls book; Secret Teachings of All ages..that book could take life times to understand but thats where I was introduced to Pythagoras and numerology. Also spent time reading Ellie Crystal books/website but not into it. I think there is something about this stuff that pertains to us but I just cant grasp it? Just me? Interesting videos though, enjoyed them.

I have that same Manley Hall book. He was one sharp dude. He was also a 33rd degree Freemason, and that is one interesting outfit. I once got hooked on conspiracy stuff, and some of those paths comingle with spiritual things, which I always found a little odd.
History, and people, are a trip (myself included). Living is a lot of fun. lol

Funny, I studied the occult stuff for a few years too. Jordan Maxwell, David Icke, Alan Watts, Alan Jones, Illuminati, Free Masonry all of it then I stopped one day and realized that I just wasted way too many of lifes precious moments to learn that I 'll never know the "absolute" truth of any of it. haha But yes Manley Hall was way, way ahead of his time and I still don't know where he got his "inside" information and at such a young age?

Thanks for the links, popee. Short and sweet videos. Nothing is ever proved, not even in mathematics, but those whose nature it is to worship at the shrine of beauty do not ask for proof.

never .. ever .. over think .. anything especially where my little writing doodles are concerned
the 'hornets nest' remark, was twofold I feel like I opened one up here with my earlier comments and .. as for tathagata .. he has his own in a different thread (not here)
I have twin problems, for one I don't write well, and two, my thoughts are not easily expressed
tomorrow I'll try to elucidate my ideas more clearly

I like you popee in a human being to human being kinda way. hehe. seriously, I can be opinionated but I am writing what I write because I care, I really do. I understand the ego, the mind, the illusions, the this, the that and have come to accept that I'm here trapped in this body with no identity anymore, no fear, nothing to prove, nothing to gain or loose so I might as well enjoy it, have some fun, help those who want out of suffering to see that there really is none because you really aren't suffering you just "think" you are because in truth there is no "you"..hehe and so lets spread the love and enjoy life.

Yeah, I like you a lot ws, whether we agree or not. And I doubt the disagreements are that far off, just interpreted or expressed differently. Some things feel very very true to me, even if the descriptions falls short.

I agree that we really are not far off if any but see the same thing from a different perspective. hehe life is a f-in blast hehe lets live the dream as best we can and just enjoy it. I will take all the help, insight , different perspectives, opinions etc. that I can get and I am willing to give the same hehe if nothing else it makes life fun and interesting and gives the mind something to do while I sit around and watch it wrestle for an answer. hehe I got a big heart and always have popee so what may seem harsh is just my way of trying to show I give a sh-t and feel that one might benefit from it including me otherwise I wouldn't write anything.
