I think Zen can be contrasted with the modern culture of presumption. You might enjoy the short Zen tale I just posted at http://deligentia.wordpress.com/2009/11/10/empty-your-cup/

I can´t claim to know anything about it at all. We seem to stumble upon and stumble though these lives without really knowing what´s going on- unless of course we are lucky enough to have the time to stop for a while and take stock of what has actually happened- falling truly in love for example- a once in a lifetime(s) gift.

What a beautiful passage. I imagine it must be even harder to fall out of love when the other is still in love with you.
What a mystery indeed!

Hah!! Well put. I think I lost my faith so quite long ago… don’t know which relationship it was though… love IS a mystery!

disillusion disillusion disillusion is all around me. How does one rise above disillusion… and should one, to be happier for a while? Or can such a thing as disillusion lead one to actually fall in love?!

Thank you for reaching out to me. Things have worked out, though not as I had imagined, or hoped. Life is a devine mystery, wouldn’t you agree?

Sivananda was indeed a great yoga teacher. Yet, if one comes to know Hindu spirituality he will say more or less the same things.

Comment on Fluency by Joe

Joe — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:51:58 +0000

Alan Watts compares life most fittingly to the game of hide-and-seek.

During the hard times, when it’s “unbearable”, we are hiding from ourselves. These are the times when gaining perspective is most important, yet seems near impossible to do.

You’re not alone here. Maintaining “fluency” is a struggle I deal with daily, although the struggle isn’t to gain fluency, rather to let go of that which is blocking the flow.

Inevitably, once I’ve “found” myself again, I laugh. I laugh at the game, at the absurdity of it, and at the complete paradoxical necessity of it.

Really enjoy your journal here. Keep it up.

–Joe.

The website has a sample chapter from the book, an interview and a biography of the author, factoids of information about the film, a Casablanca crossword puzzle, and other information. “Casablancaistas” will love it.

I really like the way this piece flows. Each stanza slightly alters the tone, but without being jagged or unattached to the rest of the piece. Very nice poem.

Comment on Ancient Celtic Invocation to the Goddess by Soft Speaker

Soft Speaker — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 18:16:02 +0000

I am the stag : of seven tines,
I am a flood : across a plain,
I am a wind : on a deep lake,
I am a tear : the sun lets fall
I am a hawk : above the cliff
I am a thorn : beneath the nail,
I am a wonder : among flowers,
I am a wizard : who but I
Sets the cool head aflame with smoke

I am a spear : that roars for blood,
I am a salmon : in a pool,
I am a lure : from paradise,
I am a hill : where poets walk,
I am a boar : ruthless and red,
I am a breaker, threatening doom,
I am a tide : that drags to death,
I am an infant : who but I
Peeps from the unhewn dolmen arch?

“……..When I think of the magic place I’ve had to leave, of its mysterious wild mountains, dry river streams rich with the flying oysters that swim their way into the indigo skies and orange suns, or its turquoise ocean which with its gentle kisses keeps reshaping the shore………”.

I can just see this, so beautifully have you described it.

Comment on Your Words by Soft Speaker

Soft Speaker — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 18:47:28 +0000

I didn´t speak
I just stood up silence
There are no more real words in my mouth
None to reach your ear
They are all written in the sky
I embrace the Skye
And you in it
And the Skye in you

Comment on Timing Is Everything by lyraeum

lyraeum — Fri, 30 May 2008 10:10:53 +0000

Thanks for sharing this. It hit home for me. If it’s any consolation, you come across as a strong woman who has no illusion as to her situation, who seems to have empowered herself by accepting what to most women is unacceptable – that the father of her child(ren) may not necessarily be her partner. I assume this is not the first guy who broke your heart, which is why you are so conforming now. I assume you’ve had your share of men who behave the same way, which is why you are now contemplating on playing the part of “the whole family” to another child, on your own. I’m not saying, “don’t do it”. Nobody can tell you what to do. I’m just saying that there are other men out there who do have some substance to them, not many, just a few, but maybe, just maybe, your luck will change and you will meet someone who will feel privileged to share with you more than his semen.
Anyway, that’s what I wish for you.

Except for humanity’s ever increasing violence against itself, based upon its willingness to harm others for the sake of its love of evolutionation of moderenization, where Civilization is now is indeed not bad.

innerarchitect — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 22:39:22 +0000

The future does not have to be treacherous. Thoughts are the building blocks to our reality. According to Quantum Physics, thoughts are not contained within but move outward into the ether. Consequently we have a power that we under utilize and over scrutinize:

Comment on Me Am Always I by brennanhm

brennanhm — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 15:26:24 +0000

I can relate closely to your ideas in this blog entry. There have been many things in my life that I’ve wanted due to other people telling me directly or indirectly that I SHOULD want them. But once I’ve acquired those things I realize they don’t make me happy, as I expected they would. It makes me think about really re-assessing my life goals and desires. Do I really want a big house, nice car, lots of money, a beautiful wife? Will that truly make me happy? Probably not, based on past experience. So, it begs the question… What Do I want?? The quest for self discovery continues…

Comment on Erich Fromm Quotes by Felipe

Felipe — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 03:03:44 +0000

I found most of your quotes cherishable. I’m atm reading “Fear of freedom” and I can actually feel how my point of view changes into something better, and I’m 21 (so I consider myself young still, specially mindwise :p) not sure at what age you might have read it.
Funny how a sad event in our lives can lead us to discover what we we’re missing out, what we wanted and eventually, happyness.
Anyway, just wanted to say I apreciated the quotes here, but I won’t be checking this page or anything.

Off to be happy, hope you’re too. Bye byes

Comment on Spring Depression by frugalwench

frugalwench — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 23:33:50 +0000

I read this with great interest, and was struck by what you call narcissism. Not long ago, I decided not to watch t.v. anymore. I read that Madonna does not watch t.v., or go online, because she wants to spend her time in more positive pursuits. It seems to have worked for her, although I would definitely call her a narcissist. I find that not watching that everyday, the news, the crime shows (My favorite shows were Law and Order and CSI) is gradually pulling me out of that depressive, dark place in which I used to spend most of my waking hours. Still, I don’t keep promises, don’t do what I should, but I don’t consider myself narcissistic…quite the opposite. I am selfish. I spent most of my life trying to make people like me, and it was all about them. Now it’s all about me. I’m coming out of that, though, as I come out of the depression. Try not subjecting yourself to those depressing images anymore. Do it for a month. Don’t read the newspaper, watch t.v., or engage in conversation with people who dwell on dark things. I listen to comedy when I’m on the computer. I have the southern comics along with Bill Cosby. When that doesn’t work, I play some uplifting music. You’re right, so much is dark today, but I have to believe there is still light there, otherwise, we are doomed. One little candle…

Comment on Leo Buscaglia Quotes by julia robinson

julia robinson — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 17:45:09 +0000

i don´t think the opposite of love is apathy…apathy is a natural state of being human, we need tension to begin to understand and therefore learn. i thought for a long time that the opposite of love was fear. but actually i´ve realised that fear only hinders love, like some sort of smoke blanket. then i thought that the opposite of love was power, it sort of rings true, jung said similar things, and well i´m sure he meant external power, as in hierarchical power (not power over oneself and energy). but at the end of the day, eros, that mitological god who is more than us, is the only thing we know of that transcends psyches, doesn´t have an opposite. it just is. take it or leave it. but it is our true vibration and difficult to maintain.

Sorry to disappoint you, but there’s no mistake. According to Wikipedia, “Worm Moon” is the name Native Americans gave to the full moon in March. “Lenten Moon” is the English name for it. Other names used for March full moon are: Crow Moon, Crust Moon, Sugar Moon, Sap Moon, Chaste Moon. Gotta love the Sugar Moon, and respect the Chaste Moon!
