Gandhi and Saints

October 3, 2009 irishwordpainter

Your life is your gift and is not mine to judge, but I question why you would expend so much time and energy being a co-conspirator?  When someone tells you who they are, you would do well to listen.  Please, don’t perceive this as hurling pebbles, I am not.  We must clear away the mind’s debris to reach the center, no matter how difficult or mean it is. Until we are able to clear away the debris, the truth will come back to testify against us.  Why would you stay in the halls of insanity, deem these people more important than your very life?  Some would admire your staying power, but in essence, you nurtured and cultivated their sickness.  If someone were to use a bat to crack open your skull, would you remain in that person’s life to help them deal with their violent nature by handing them a crow bar?  You should measure your life as carrying the highest value. 

No one should subject themselves to such inherent evil and wrap it in the guise of love.  Love does not exact a price of draining your life’s blood from your body.  You cannot say they took one thing from you that you did not willingly give.  I don’t understand a world that sees this rape against the soul as devotion.  Let me cite an example:  Gandhi…regarded as a Saint, an unequivocal absolute that is never disputed, correct?  We admire his selflessness and hold him in the highest esteem, correct?  Wrong.  I detest everything he is: a man who left his wife and children abandoned with no monetary or emotional support, so that he could guide the masses.  He deemed strangers to be more important than his own flesh and blood.  Family Courts have a name for this despicable in-human being: “Deadbeat Dad”, and yet, he was showered with love and admiration? This abandonment should have been perceived as criminal, at the very least, inherently evil.  Society’s moral compass needs to be calibrated.  You should hold yourself to the highest standard; deem your life more important than any parasitic subhuman’s.  To fail to do so  is an act of treason against you soul, committed by your own hands.
 
You perceive me as judging you, I am not.  I want you to love yourself and your life so much that you would remove yourself from people who feel entitled to rob you of your very life.  When you are on an airplane, the flight attendant instructs us, in the event of an emergency, to place the oxygen mask around your head first and then your child.  Why?  We can’t save our child if we haven’t saved ourself  first.
 
The very fact that you continue to perceive my values and teachings as judgmental, when these are offered as gifts I give only to those I deem worthy, tells me you still do not see the heart of me.  I do not give one ounce of my energy to anyone unworthy.  Some would call this selfish, but I know there are people who can never be saved, because they are infected with parasites that have robbed them of their mind and the ability to reason.  They have never developed moral courage nor a sense of self.  Their self-loathing is the disease that breeds a sense of entitlement to lay clain to the right to suck you dry of everything you have earned by the sweat of your brow and your ability to reason.   Parasites cannot be contained; they must be destroyed with fire.  The flame is your declaration that your life is yours and they have no right to it.
 
Please don’t allow parasites to feed off of you and wrap this assault against your life with a banner declaring love.  Love builds, it lifts, it demands that each of us become the very best, it says that I choose to share my life with you so that we can shower one another in such bright lights, no one or anything can burn them out.  If a person asks you to sacrifice your life for his, this is not love…this is leaching.
