There's nothing to be saved.
What do you mean there's nothing to be saved?
I can't understand you.
Well it's very simple, you don't exist.
***!
That's not true!
Well okay if that's the case.
But then.. why do you think it's ***?
Why do you think it's not true?
Well I've been involved with the spiritual path for thirty years
I've been doing my own trip and my discipline and practice
and I still feel good in spite of my shortcomings.
Very interesting!
The ideal way of worshiping or surrendering process...
may be an enlightened state of being
and also that you
are experiencing that you've been trapped
in the samsaric world at the same time.
That you are finally not a worshipper but you are a refugee.
A worshiper has home ground, has tradition and culture
but when you think of yourself as a refugee
that you don't have any state, any belongings
you've been ousted out of your country, become a refugee.
so you can't fight for your property or anything like that.
So become a refugee
taking refuge in the Buddha as an example.
Not a father figure.
You don't exist.
The things you think exist are impermanent.
You should denounce your security completely
and if there is any desire to reach to the heaven
that you are not in it and
you are in fact in the bottom of hell.
