Yes, (for me) joy has infinite doors, laziness ‘could be’ one of them. And it’s not always in my power to open it.

In that ‘could be’ I place all the “shades of meanings”.

MOD:
BETTER TO BE WILLING TO EXPLAIN MORE FULLY WHAT YOU PUT UP HERE, VF. (AND PLEASE REMEMBER, FEW, IF ANY, UNDERSTAND ITALIAN, SO NO MORE ITALIAN LANGUAGE VIDEOS, PLEASE!).

ALSO WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY Because All runs…?

I must try to look into how aborigines and groups of hunter-gatherers used to deal with these kinds of issues.

My apologies for what may seem like an exercise in style, experimental – it is not.
I used logical connectives that in my language have different meanings, not only shades, emphasis; and sometimes it changes the hierarchy of cause and effect:

Today it is sunny but cold: assumes that the sun has to warm up;
Today it’s sunny and cold: assumes that between the sun and the cold could be no relationship;
Today it is sunny despite the cold: it presupposes an inverse relationship to the “but” above: when the sun is there it should be cold;
Today it is sunny but not cold: assumes that the sun should cool;
Today it is sunny and there is not cold: almost similar to “and” from above, this time it is assumed that between the sun and the heat can not be a relationship;
Today it is sunny despite there is no heat: it presupposes a consequential relationship between the cold and the sun.

MOD: POST EDITED

OK, VF, BUT PLEASE EXPLAIN THE VARIOUS SHADES OF MEANING YOU LISTED FOR lazy AND joyful!

Well, if MM would come to my town – no, dear, for me now I am myself the source of my joy; if there is no joy I do not indulge/maybe ignore it.

Seems she is enjoying herself! Thank you for sharing and your inquiry.

I’d like to ask you, if it’s not too nosy, what relationship (if any) you see between your laziness and joy? If:
Lazy because joyful; Lazy because not joyful; Lazy but joyful; Lazy but not joyful; Lazy and joyful; Lazy and not joyful; Lazy although joyful; Lazy although not joyful…

Or…to remain on the topic:
If Mother Meera comes to your town you’d go to meet her? (In case MM for you had any relationship with joy…or laziness).

Isn’t she lovely lazy?

MOD:
VF, A FEW OF THOSE Lazy/joyful CATEGORIES SEEM TO BE SIMILAR OR THE SAME:
Lazy but joyful, Lazy and joyful, Lazy although joyful
Lazy but not joyful, Lazy and not joyful, Lazy although not joyful.
ANY COMMENTS?

I can imagine that our ancestors going back thousands of years would have found ways to extract teeth, but such a procedure without anaesthetic must have been beyond the pain barrier for many, and they also died.

One imagines this is the same for animals in the wild.

“In wonder
I stand in wonder
At the MIRACLE of you.!

The fact that a few people do seem to gain union with the universe itself, and become an instrument of that, is perhaps the greatest miracle.

If Mother Meera also in her own way gives a taste of that, all to the good. The more the merrier, cos it ain’t easy….

It may be, it may not be. At least there are no bad placebos.

Also a simple paracetamol is a useful over-the-counter substance to heal basic pain and cold. Human body and sicknesses are too complex and therefore it is an unending research and development in pharmaceutical branch. In my heart Osho developed His spiritual work the way someone created Novartis and Pfizer!

My inner motivation is based on Osho´s work. No shortcuts but different tools to create a wholesome man and a society.

I see myself as one of the R&D employees engaged in Osho´s lab.; it is very seldom that I take some product from other companies. I tried during last weeks.

Thanks for reading and participating in lively discussion, specially to those who stayed with the theme of the thread.

Love,

Shantam
