Vorfreude

“I will be waiting here for your silence to break,
for your soul to shake, for your love to wake.”
__Rumi

Freeride

“Don’t know where I am going, but I am on my way…
Wherever my travels may lead, paradise is where I am.”
__Voltaire

The Call

Only waking up,
_ we might choose it all.
___.Now, rather pick it up,
_____.when you hear the call.

Unseen Forces

Everyone perceives through learned patterns, coming to experience the world from predetermined, inherited sets of ideas, labels and assumptions. Our very intimate understanding becomes shaped, and imagination invited to establish what is or isn’t possible in our lives.

Reverie

Disguised as expediency,
it’s mainly fear and envy that sustains the fancy.

Mind’s Web

“Just as the spider emits the thread out of itself and again withdraws it into itself, likewise the mind projects the world out of itself and again resolves it into itself…

.
… When the mind comes out of the Self, the world appears. Therefore, when the world appears to be real, the Self does not appear.”
__Sri Ramana Maharshi

Zen Pearls

“The Way is perfect like vast space, when nothing is lacking and nothing is in excess.”

.
Journey on a path which no longer exists,
no walker either, just the walking alone.
Yet wandering across the mist,
is the only way back home.

Rain

When sunrise lights the soul and illusion just dissolves,
Countless bitter tears are forever lost in fresh rainfall.

.
“The desire of a thoughtlessly living man grows like a creeper.
Drifts from one life to another, like a monkey looking for fruit in the forest.
When one is overcome by this wretched, clinging desire in the world,
one’s sorrows increase like grass growing up after a lot of rain.
But when one masters this wretched desire, which is so hard to overcome,
then one’s sorrows just drop off, like a drop of water…”
__Buddha

Golem

“Not to know one’s true identity is to be a mad, disensouled thing – a golem…

…condemned to toxic lives of low awareness. Sedated by the prescripted daily television fix, a living dead, lost to all but the act of consuming”.
__Terence McKenna

Beyond Words

Alan Watts says; “if we think is because we’re manipulating with symbols … then, the ghosts in our languages are in fact the limit of our reason.”

Also aims that fortunately we might not be completely lost after that, because as the Dutch philosopher Aart van der Leeuw wisely said; “the mystery of life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”
