Indeed, thank you too anagogy. A wonderful analysis and thanks for putting in the time to share it!
I first came across Nisargadatta via a youtube link in the Facebook study group of the Ra material (just over a week ago). I watched it twice as his choice of words seemed to chime with Ra's. Referring to desire, one of my favourite pop Artist's (Pink) had this to say about it in her song 'Try'.
"Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame, where there is a flame someone's gonna get burned, just because it hurts doesn't mean your gonna die, you gotta get up and try try try."
I share this because she is re-iterating Ra's personal experience that trying to overcome desire's is extremely inappropriate.
"We have found it to be inappropriate in the extreme to encourage the overcoming of any desires".
Just a side note anagogy, are you in this study group I mentioned?
