Realisation. Acknowledgement of the self. Acknowledgement of other people's exsistence. Acknowledgement of the mind. Acknowledgement of events. Acknowledgement of memories. Acknowledgement of cause and effect. Acknowledgement of other people's perceptions. Acknowledgement of our inevitable demise Acknowledgement of suffering. Acknowledgement of the universe.
Spoke with Martin just now.
He had killed a baby mouse to put it out of it's suffering, and he was crying.
The top paragraph there flashed through my mind.
The image of the little baby mouse twitching flashed through my mind. The fact that he acknowledged it's suffering, it's pain, it's exsistence enough to rip off it's head to cure it's suffering, even though it would hurt his "the self".
Why am I speaking with him again anyway?
It was wonderful of him to ease it's pain though.
I'm so gullible.
