More UNITED than we realize!

Morality, Concentration and Insight have a little talk

Curtain opens.

Morality, Concentration and Insight are sitting in abar having a discussion. A large stack of empty shot glasses sits in frontof each character.

Morality: You navel gazing, self-absorbed, good-for-nothing freaks! I go out and work hard all day long to make this world fit to live in while you two sit on those sweat covered cushions and cultivate butt-rot! I go out and make good money, keep food in our mouths, a roof over our heads, deal with our stuff, and you go out and spend our money up at that freak-house you call a meditation center when there is important work to be done! I want to work on my tan!

Insight: Who are you calling “self-absorbed?” I can’t be self absorbed by definition! If it wasn’t for me, you would be so stuck indualistic illusion that you wouldn’t know your ass from your elbow, you conceptually fixated, emotionally mired, bound-up-in-manifestation looking,twelve sandwich eating…

Concentration: Yeah! And by the way, Mr. Oh-so-worldly, you should learn to lighten up sometimes! Work your fingers to the bone,whaddaya get? Bony fingers. That’s what. And that goes for you too,Mr. Enlightenment! If you didn’t have my skills, you’d be shit out of luck, unable to focus, and dead boring to boot! Who brings up the deep joy and wondrous mind states around here? I do, that’s who, so you two should just shut up!

Insight: Oh, yeah? Well, Mr. La-la Land, if it weren’t for me, we’d be so caught up in your transient highs that we might just get arrested.Somebody call the law! You two are so easily sucked into blowing things out of proportion that without me you two would have all the perspective of a dung heap!

Morality: Dung heap? You’d be lucky to have a dung heap if itwasn’t for me, you emptiness-fixated, I’m-oh-so-non-conceptual vibration-junkie. What good is having perspective if you don’t go out and use it?

Concentration: Yeah! And speaking of perspective, I give you guys more perspective than you have any idea of. Not only do I provide abridge between our resident Save-the-world Poster Child and the Void fixated Flicker-boy, I help you two get your twitchy little minds right! I help the Boy Scout here gain more and deeper insights into his screwed up emotional world and “stuff” than he ever could have on his own, and if it wasn’t for me, Mr. Ultimate would just be spinning his wheels in the parking lot! And further more, I am fun, fun, fun!

Insight: Yeah, maybe, but you don’t know when to stop, you other worldly space-case! If Relative Man and I hadn’t pulled you out of the clouds, you’d still be lost in some formless realm thinking you had half a clue. I’m the one with the clue! There ain’t nothin’ in the world like what I know, and without it, you two’s whole pathetic little sense of identity would be bound up in a world beyond your control. I am your salvation, and you know it!

Morality: Beyond my control my ass! I make things happen in this world, great things! I’m the one that really gets us somewhere! I make a difference! Who cares if there is no self when people are starving in Africa?

Insight: Who cares is exactly my point! There is no separate,permanent self that cares!

Morality: “I know you are, but what am I?”

Insight: Exactly!

Morality: Jerk!

Concentration: See? You guys gotta' chill out, get some balance and peace in your life. Take a few moments and just breathe! Leave your worries and cares behind, and fly the friendly skies! It’s free, legal, and oh-so-recommended. You can quit when ever you like! All your friends are doing it! Come on, just relax!

Morality: All right, Fly Guy, when are we going to deal with our emotional issues, huh? When are we going to save the world? We can’t just go on vacation forever.

Insight: Your problem is that you can’t see the sensations that make up these “issues” as they really are, so you make such a big friggin’ deal out of them. I mean, I see your point, but you are so reactive and blind that you are hardly the one for the job. You solidify these things into huge monsters, forget you have done this, and then freak out when they come running after you. You need a clue, you confused little shrew!

Morality: Oh, yeah! Don’t think that just because you can see the true nature of the issues that make up your reality that you won’t still have stuff to deal with! Now, that’s delusion!

Insight: It’s even more deluded to think that you can really have a completely healthy perspective on anything without me, you Monster Maker!

Concentration: Dude, do you see those angels floating through the wall?

Morality: Where in the Hell did I find you freaks?

Insight: Short memory, eh? You found us when you realized you couldn’t do it on your own. You needed us to really be able to do the job you wanted to do, to really make a difference and be as happy and effective as you could be.

Morality: Yeah? And when can I get rid of you?

Concentration and Insight: When you have mastered us completely. Jinx, one two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!

Morality: Bartender…

THE END.

If you could understand this little funny talk, or at least Morality you would know that it has NO skin colour as you call it( i call it own reality).It depends like every other things in this Reality on circumstances and is impermanent. But to understand THAT you have to Master "real" Insight.

If you know how things(like morality) really are you wouldn´t ask this question.So to get this Insight you have to Master different levels of Concentration.

Without this, Morality is just a Label to you, a word or a name filled with your own or other Concepts, an Idea of how YOU think morality should be.But THIS IS NOT MORALITY at all.

SO without this knowledge there is NO MORALITY just many different Ideas of how it should be( as reality so often proofs it)

In labeling Morality or follow a Concept maybe makes you feel a better Person, because YOU( i don´t mean it personal) are the Good one and the OTHERS are the Bad, but this all is nothing more then EGO-BLOWING it becomes a Tool for Seperation. And look what Morality as Tool of Separation has done throughout History Where people following there own CONCEPTS of Morality without knowing the TRUE NATUR of it. Look at Christianity, Islam or Judaism(as example) or everyone who puts his Idea of Morality upon someone who has a different kind or different understanding of Morality.

ALL Ideas and Concepts are Wrong because they are Ideas and Concepts and not Morality,but Labels on something totally unknown to the most.

So start again look behind the Curtain and see what Morality is all about and let go of your Concepts and Ideas THEN and only then you will understand what Morality is all about.(If not, Morality stay as a position of Ignorance and will at last always create more suffering)

Or as Insight said ;-)

Insight:" ......... You needed us(Insight and Concentration) to REALLY be able to do the job you wanted to do, to REALLY make a difference and be as happy and effective as you could be."
