Talk: 19840920-Larry_Rosenberg-UNK-buddhas_ancient_med_path_a_modern_challenge_part_ii-1516 Leandra Tejedor Start_time: 02:27 Display_question: Should we negate psychic phenomena as a form of wisdom? Keyword_search: psychic phenomena, Bhagavata Gita, Bible, Upanishads, intelligence, healing energies, masculine, feminine, wisdom, images, God Question_content: Questioner: (inaudible) What I heard you say…and you are totally right on…that can negate the… psychic phenomena avenue… Larry: Not negate, I would say try to put in its proper place. Questioner: Could you do that a little more because what I heard before has changed. Larry: Yeah, anything. The degree to which it takes helps take you to freedom, is useful. In other words, it's a two-edged thing. Let's say the holy books… the Bhagavata Gita, the Bible, the Upanishads. There's extraordinary wisdom in them. But if you become a scholar of it, or as you get locked into just the concepts, then it's a dead end. If you chew it over, and use it as a springboard, to go beyond it, and to use it as a source of inspiration to get to where those words came from, rather than just the words, then those books are spiritually an advantage, or a great help. Same with everything. The problem with psychic phenomena, is that they're so powerful, and delectable, that it's very easy for the ego to get caught in it. It's nothing intrinsically wrong with psychic phenomena, healing energies, all kinds of ways which can help make our life on the planet, easier. So it's just like any form of intelligence. It's here for a reason, and it's useful. So, the problem isn't in the psychic phenomena. The problem is in how easy it gets easily it gets distorted. Just how easily sex gets distorted, or money gets distorted. Do you see what I'm trying to say? Questioner: I do, I do. Larry: Does that change it at all? Or is there something more on your side? Questioner: Well I guess what I am wondering…what I heard is that wisdom is the ultimate… and the image I get of wisdom is a masculine image… Larry: Well, then throw it away. It's just an image, really. Throw it away, and replace it with whatever you replace it. And let's say, then I'll say, oh, that sounds like a feminine image. And then we'll be back to… the both images, which come out of our mind. And wisdom is not, the word wisdom. The word wisdom, or any words that we might put out about that word, are not it. They're just... we're trying to use verbal means, to communicate with each other. It's the best I can do, but I know it's not it. And if you want to say, well, God also has a masculine connotation, because of how we've all been brought up, I'd say, fine, it's just a word. The words are not important. What's important, is what they're pointing towards. And if we can agree on that, then I'll be happy to let go of the word, wisdom. End_time: 05:07
