Like hunter stalking prey, want from others follows as a dark shadow plaguing its victim. Hunger for energy, praise, absolution, love, apologies, acknowledgement of existence, worthiness…leaves empty belly.
Hunter insists on stalking the same prey over and over and all the while not catching it…hunter dies. Not catching prey does not reflect hunter’s worthiness as a hunter, but rather prey’s worthiness to escape. The meeting of hunter’s needs lies elsewhere. Hunter must travel a different trail.

Hunter is suffering. Hunter can relieve the suffering by letting go of desire for prey. Hunter can be happy.
ReplyDeleteIf hunter doesn't hunt, he dies. Must have prey. The question is which prey and when. That is the part to let go of.
