One of the little jokes that run through my head from time to time is that I am probably the first really ruthless bitch to achieve enlightenment. Of course some might ask how can you be a ruthless bitch AND achieve enlightenment.
I think that it is possible.
First of all, there is no justification in nature for retirement. Sitting back, apart from the combat of life and masturbating to the awe of how beautiful nature is and how all life is connected is RETIREMENT. There is no fossil record that supports the idea that the purpose of life on the planet is so that people can sit around meditating and marveling at the beauty of nature (if this were true, we would all be bitches).
My theory is that if the yogis had gone just a little further AFTER realizing the beauty of nature and AFTER realizing that all life is connected AND after realizing that there is actually a purpose to life on the planet, that they would have realized that life is a combat sport.
The realization that life is a combat sport is essential to fighting to live until you are ready to die.
Edgar Winter Dying To Live From - The Edgar Winter Album Mmm... You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion By some people who withdraw to find their head Now they say that there is humor in misfortune Sometimes I wonder if they'll laugh...when I am dead...
Why am I fighting to live If I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see... When there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give When no one gives me a try? Why am I dying to live If I'm just living to die...
Yeah... You know some people say that values are subjective But they're just speaking words...that someone else has said... And so they live and fight and kill with no objective Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead
Why am I fighting to live If I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see... When there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give When no one gives me a try? Why am I dying to live If I'm just living to die...
Now I used to weave my words...in deep confusion So I hope you'll understand me...when I'm through... Now I used to live my life as an illusion But reality will make my dream come true
So I'll keep fighting to live 'till there's no reason to fight And I'll keep trying to see... Until the end is in sight You know I'm trying to give So come on...give me a try You know I'm dying to live Until I'm ready to die Until I'm ready Until I'm ready... Until I'm ready to die...
