Count down, don't work. Do, but just sit, not evaluating, not mediating. Let it all flow around, get carried by the float on it ( Read more... ) -
Building cosmology and philosophy
I had an interesting debate with a Youtube internet persona for a few days. It was revealing for where my own thoughts currently stand on beliefs and meaning. Largely they are both absent.
After years of toiling and evolving with these two sets of emotions (mental phenomenon that are not logical in their make-up), I seem to have upgraded to a more ( Read more... ) -

"So, how did you break your foot? Did you have a vehicle accident?" the lady behind the glass glances inquisitively at my crutches.
"Ya." I reply with a smirk.
"You weren't drinking, were you?" a sideways glance with more than a hint of accusation in her eyes and tone.
"Of course not. Wait, did you see that Canadian that was on the news driving his ( Read more... ) -

When those outside the structured social field strike "blindly," demanding AND enacting immediate justice/vengeance, this is "divine violence" - recall, a decade or so ago, the panic in Rio de Janeiro when crowds descended from favelas into the rich part of the city and started looting and burning supermarkets - THIS was "divine violence"...

Assistance to the writer's block of my neural pathways: desired.
It's time for another psychedelic trip. I've learned and recovered from my first. There's a lot more ground to cover in the discovery of my self-imposed restrictions.
I'll be in Canada in August for a quick visit with Vicki.
The question: pure MDMA, shrooms or LSD for a second trip?
Maybe I'll pick a day for each.
I really miss MJ too. I'll need to ( Read more... ) -
Peace of Mind
"Two ideas are psychologically deep-rooted in man; self-protection and self-preservation. For self-protection man has created God, on whom he depends for his own protection, safety and security, just as a child depends on its parent. For self-preservation man has conceived the idea of an immortal Soul or Ātman, which will live eternally. In his ( Read more... )
