it's funny how people
get caught in certain viewpoints
and they won't let themselves get out of them
because they won't read the books
go to the events
or make the experiences
outside
that viewpoint
it's crazy funny
how we get caught
in these loops of the mind-
or roads we've taken
one way
blinkered to all others
that road loops its way inside you
along the path
because really
the path is just the
loop
Loops of the Mind
scratching around
on the surface
get caught in certain viewpoints
and they won't let themselves get out of them
because they won't read the books
go to the events
or make the experiences

we've come here to express
And the only thing worth expressing
is the truth
And the truth is the silence,
our Spiritual Abode,
And therein lies the bind
And yet
and yet...
we have a chance here,
we've come here to express,
to learn-
to know-
and to experience-
who we really are.
...
(Who are we again?)

(Disclaimer: the truth is also in the noise)

with an attitude of not-doing,
true doing is achieved.
That is not to say be lazy
or inactive, or not set goals
or put steps in place to achieve them
But simply that
without being preoccupied with doing
& achieving, the struggle ceases
and doing and achieving (often to a
greater extent than before) happen naturally

paradise and parasites
Evening walk
lush overgrown rich greening paths
This really is
Heaven on Earth.
Paradise.
Stand and stare.
(Out the bird hide)
(quiet nature point)
Don't rush, man...
You miss things.
And nature does not rush.
All in time
All in
its seasons.
Season changed
Me maybe too
newness old,
wonderful here
I'm in Love
with Existence.
And yet people-
may come
see my awe,
touching plants &
feeling trees
and think
my divine sanity
is insane.
The human world
so caught up,
misplaced
People shut in houses,
this nature open free.
And yes, today I'm here...
But I'm the same
I can be the same,
I am people too.
And yes, we can be
-------------parasites

And yet...
And yet...
we are what

this consciousness to life
We make nature whole
By being here
to experience it.
We are experiencing
NatureGodUniverseWhole
And we are creating
that movement,
experience,
That which we are.
We bring it all to life
into consciousness
THIS IS NOT HAPPENING TO US
WE ARE HAPPENING TO US!
Maybe most of us
don't even know
what trip we're on.

thank you the drums
and what they say, it's true;
rest, and unconditional
Love
stare at the page-
my eyes blur to nothing
and the music stops
on repeat
melody starts
swimming with love
in here
so much so
I can't believe it

with Love

The Sheer Beauty of Life
Union with the divine-

I call it God
"With God on my side"-
God doesn't take sides-
God doesn't even conceive of sides-
God is not even God-
in the sense of associations that can be made to a word.
The name is not the thing
because the thing
is the eternal ever-present
creative power of the blah blah blah...
And that can't be
boxed up
and given a label.
It can't be fought for
or fought against
because what is is what is
and these are just words-
pointing to that but also getting in the way-
words
of limitation
that the mind sheds
when it understands
what is so.
Perhaps if we were stronger
I wouldn't be writing
and you wouldn't be reading.

What we know is what we have built walls around,
labelled and boxed up.
In time and space we have created our reality.
And yet our reality is only ever here and now.
Ever changing, ever new...
when the walls come down
we find ourselves
saturated in and flowing with
the creative power of the universe...
The Creative Power of the Universe!
That which we are.

hi. now. i'm here. where are you? what are you looking for? I guess we're all just looking for signposts. i can tell you what tells you is not the i but this. and this says you are everything already but you must get rid of what you're not before you can believe it.
so what has this got to say but your own natural inner rhythm? ha- there's the bind- not a lot really. come back to your self. be at peace. in love. open. be.

The ultimate fate
of the Universe
depends on how much

dark energy permeates all of space and
increases the rate

of the Universe.
Dark energy

It is negativity, weight,

growing

kills us, blows us apart entirely.
