I've said this several times already but we need to look at it again and again. I live in my world. It rings true for me. That is say I believe what I believe. That is solipsistic, in ordinary language it means it vanishes up its own arse, it doesn't go anywhere. I believe in what I believe and therefore I experience what I believe in. You don't believe what I believe you believe what you believe and so you have your experience. But you experience a world which for you is there before your belief. 'I only believe in it because its good and true', may be not - James Low

This guru yoga or in Tibetan lama'i naljor; nal means at ease or relaxed or natural and jor means to join or union or not to be other than. You might say just this, the just thisness of openness, however it is its just open but you can't homogenise it and say its just this because it's occuring in many different ways. So whether our mind feels bright and fresh, dull, apart or separate, or sad or hopeless whatever is occuring be with it and it's gone. So in the instructions it says stay on the point of the emergence. Not ahead of it with expectation. Not behind it with recollection but on the beat. This is going nowhere. No past, no future, just this. Here gone, here gone. Then within this is finite openness here we are - James Low

When I worked in the psychiatric world people believed in many things and these beliefs were true for the people. Not everyone believed,.'oh ho, you need to be disturbed to have that kind of belief'. The psychiatrist believes what he believes is true. The patient believes that what they believe is true. The psychiatrist says my daddy is bigger than your daddy. So my belief is right. I have degrees and status and your just a patient. It's like that, it's not very different. In the big hospital where I worked the patients cleaned the cars of the consultants. Why, then the consultant can give them some cigarettes. One group is powerful and free, the other is not free and not powerful and these identities are established by belief - James Low
