Find the transcendent dimension in human life and to see through appearances to the hidden reality within. It is the ego which blinds us to the inner mystery of all things, but once we have got beyond that we are not isolated, separate beings but one with the Ground of all existence. (Hist, p241)
Story of 3 blind men and the elephant is an example of the TRINITY.
We are blind to our laziness, contenous, gluttony, drinking, stubbornness, self-righteous, and blind to these in others. (Randy)
Blind leading the blind. ( )
