Today is suppose to be the hottest day of year. This fact motivated me to get up early and take advantage of the low morning temps. Washed clothes, vacuumed rugs, washed dishes...cut grass...D...is at the beach this week...I feel a sense of relief when he is at the beach...a clean house is good...less distractions.
Thought about doubt this morning too...got me to thinking about absolutes while cleaning. Speed of sound...Water is the most abundant molecule on Earth's surface...Different definition...Is God only in the absolute? What about finite beings like me?
Wikipedia's definition of absolute...The Absolute is the concept of an unconditional reality which transcends limited, conditional, everyday existence.
Meditation?
Soul? So I am part of the absolute?...if I believe I have a soul?
From Wikipedia..."The general commonalities between the various versions of the Absolute are: infinity, indescribablity, formlessness, transcendence and immanence. An additional commonality is that one must renounce and/or transcend physical existence and its distractions, in some cases even to the point of extinguishing identity and individual awareness, in order to understand or co-exist with the Absolute. Uniformly, human passions and vices are regarded as barriers to spiritual advancement, and such virtues as humility, charity and righteousness or pacifism are felt to help pave the way to enlightenment."
