Surrender

Have you ever wondered What’s come over you? Have you ever questioned What you ought to do? Have you ever worried Will it all work out? Have you ever asked yourself What’s it all about? Give it up, let go surrender We’re only here to remember What our souls already know We’re only here to remember We’ll get it if we just let go Have you ever cried at night Feeling...

Your Emptiness

But whoever sees your emptiness sees beyond blue and beyond the blind man. A great soul hides like Mohammed, or Jesus, moving through a crowd in a city where no one knows him. To praise is to praise how one surrenders to the emptiness. To praise the sun is to praise your own eyes. Praise, the ocean. What we say, a little ship. So the sea-journey goes on, and who knows where! Just to be held by...

So Much Easier…

You then continue to meet people, to be involved in experiences and activities, but without the wants and fears of the egoic self.

PLACE

Interesting that this writing from around the late 1800s echoes much of what we hear in the new age literature (i.e. “law of attraction” in the last paragraph.)   If the word God bothers you be sure to replace with synonym of your choice and instead of  He – use She.   The message works from whatever gender and or ‘higher power label’ works for you. “The...

Reality Is…What?

The net of our thought can only grasp fragmented concepts about reality, but reality as such is always beyond its reach. So, the inadequacy of our conceptual maps for a full understanding of reality pushes us to make them more and more intricate, on the assumption that, once they become complex enough, then they will finally be able to grasp the whole ‘truth’ from every possible point of...
