It would be better if the globe spinned a little slower... interesting nevertheless...
This image brought back memories of these famous words - 'Our world was
being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and
yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their
various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as
narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient
creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. ― H.G. Wells, The
War of the Worlds'

To get up each morning with the resolve to be happy is to set our own conditions to the events of each day. To do this is to condition circumstances instead of being conditioned by them. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

what they will do in a certain situation
until they are actually in it.
It's very easy to judge someone else's actions
by what you assume your own would be
if you were in their shoes.
But we only know what we THINK we would do
not what we WOULD do.

Very much like how R said we as a group created a pain body during our sadhu lifetime and now have to feed that which we have created - with more pain.

Ponderings
It seems that despite all the negative actions of
the adherents of Islam from suicide bombings
to refusal to tolerate other religons and much more
Western countries are giving in more and more to
recognizing and allowing Islamic demands in their
countries.
Thinking about this I can only conclude that where
some ulterior motive is at work in the affairs of men
spiritual or otherwise, these are the means by which
man is set against man to bring about the change
desired by those who "manage" humanity.
We do learn that the worlds of form are evolved through
friction between the light and dark forces.
So while it is popularly given out that good, positive
qualities are the norm, when it suits a purpose to bring
about change the negative aspects of humanity or opposing
aspects o humanity are introduced into a society to impel
change when that society has run its course even if good.
Just as we stand on the brink of a new future with China
as Super Power replacing the has been, United States we
hear news of bank workers being paddled on their bottoms
for poor performance in China. Now what "type" is taking
over? Not necessarily a more evolved type! I suppose it is
just their turn at the wheel of power by rotation!?!

Some quotable quotes
When you are alone and you feel lonely,
Obviously you are in bad company
How do you deal with female adulation?
That's why I covered myself ... (to laughter)
Do you ever get angry.
I don't give others the power to decide how I feel.
- Sadhguru
His faithfullness (to his girl friend) is limited only by the options available.
He has a zillion options now - fr a Crime & Investigation program.
(made me think about my commitments - how faithful I am when
there are few options but fly out the window when there are many
options for breaking them, e.g. vegetarianism. When I had relaxed
the rules but decided that I will still pursue vegies but such flimsy
resolve melts away when faced with the option to try some new but
meaty delights. And I wonder about my sense of commitment...)
