Cannot stop thinking about it..suchness of Universe..good and bad

So..the Universe is such..there is ignorance, the root cause of all suffering. Ignorance about not knowing the real nature of things as impermanent, devoid of self sustainig and self creating cause. This is why we cling, we get greedy and we hurt others mostly because of our greed. BUT this is no one's fault..just like leaves are green and stone is hard, this is the "suchness" of human nature. We are born in this manner. When we hurt others, it is rarely because we intentionally want to hurt, but because we are bound by our nature based on greed and need of security. Rape, theft, war crimes, terror - for all these, people who are doing them absolutely believe that they are doing the right thing. In their minds, this is the best action they can or should take. People hurt others, create bad karma unintentionally and then suffer in return. The thing that is baffling me is that this is how the system is designed..no one made it like this..this is how it is..BUT WHY?????????

  1. Hello Myochi, I know what you are speaking about here, I like to remember, this is just the way it is here. This gives me a sense that all is well and that each of us is innocent.

    I think the diversity of this place gives us the opportunity to experience ourselves in new ways. We are Source, or God, about Our Own business. From nonphysical we know this is temporary and we want very much to come here and mix it up and experience ourselves. From this perspective this is a very beautiful place with great love. I choose to focus on this beauty and love and find more and more of it in life. I also believe as individuals find ways to see the beauty here we help to move us all up the consciousness scale.
