Haikus Throughout The Day! 2007-10-28 11:31:00 clear morning sky sun rising fast overhead- still cool in the shade. drinking coffee watching people walk by- warm sun on my back. tall red rose alight in the afternoon- reaching high. still beneath a tree wind blowing through it's leaves- time does not exist. pink evening glow clouds stretching across my view- only gratitude. nighttime once again waning moon high in the sky- the hum of ...

Wordless Wednesday, Part 11 'A Day Early.' 2007-10-10 11:37:00 "I think the revolution of which I am talking is possible only when the mind is very quiet, very still. But that quietness of the mind does not come through any effort- it comes naturally, easily, when the mind understands its own process of action, which is to understand the whole significance of thinking. So the beginning of freedom is self-knowledge, and self-knowledge is not in the ...

Defining Time…And Our Time Together. 2007-10-09 11:12:00 Have you noticed how broken apart our day to day existence as human beings has become? Everything, from the largest galaxy to the smallest quark has been isolated, named and remembered by one human or another. And then we put these named parts back together to form relationships. All these named parts seem to have a relationship with each other to some extent. Everything is connected is what ...

Unless we understand the nature and the structure of this consciousness in which we act, through which all our behavior and all our thinking takes place, it seems to me we shall always be floundering, confused, always living in constant battle within ourselves and outside. We shall never be able to ...

Pissing Life Away. 2007-09-30 11:40:00 Not feeling the desire to write today. Lately, I've really been wondering why we attempt to communicate with each other about matters of consciousness, spirit, life, truth, or what have you? Is it all about play, entertainment, self-interested opinions, or are individuals actually interested in living a totally different life together? Because what I see around me is entertainment, whether people ...

Does Life Present An Entirely Different Challenge? 2007-09-29 11:07:00 What if everything happening around the world today is happening within a much larger context than I am presently aware of? Without being aware of the context that the world's events are occurring within, what are the chances of me making anything but a mistaken move? Especially if I'm moving according to an image already established in the mind. Images already existing in the mind are remnants ...

Reflections Of Society. 2007-09-27 10:46:00 The wonderful, and often challenging, aspect of myself is how disillusioned I naturally become with myself, with my own self-image. This whole play of spirituality has grown tiresome and old. There is really no difference between what one would call spirituality and any other self-made pursuit occupying ones time. Spirituality is no closer to truth than any other man-made invention. All there is, ...

Wordless Wednesday, Part 9 2007-09-26 10:54:00 The land you see is not land. It is a very thin layer of volcanic sand floating on the surface of the ocean near an active underwater volcano.
