They are the ego playing at being enlightened (whatever the hell that is). Experience cannot be expressed for as you say it is prior to expression. So there can be no interpretation of it, no understanding of it. When it is formulated in such ways it is not actually experience but a thought ABOUT experience. So the basis of all religious, mystical texts are just conditioned thoughts, as is the case with your blog. You see experience cannot be described or experienced. Thus there are no enlightened, privileged 'aware people'. Awareness (if it exists) is not human. We will only ever know it vicariously through the prism of thought which is different for every person. This formulation of 'nothing matters' (a very constant theme in advaita circles) is just a palliative. Enlightenment, in the traditional sense of the world, is totally impossible.<br />More at http://awareconsciousness.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6311547075033408596.post-75727002689309657712010-11-27T16:46:29.410+00:002010-11-27T16:46:29.410+00:00You seem to not just understand this but more.

He only danced once onscreen with Ann Miller (my favourite) presumably because she towered over him a bit. However, it was great when they did: <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGnA92OoOZQNo One In Particularhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13465987207757191972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6311547075033408596.post-57330512941686482822010-11-22T13:59:54.211+00:002010-11-22T13:59:54.211+00:00Yes,I admit it is quite a feet! :)
