Summary
#1414 – 3/22/95:
Notes by TK
The mind thinking about life creates reality (local conditions), a diffusion of consciousness, an illusory comfort which is a handicap to direct perception. Reality is subject to opinion, life is not.
The News

Today’s creation story
Shortly after life created man it realized that many of them were too timid to directly confront the nature of existence,
So it gave them the reassuring buffer of the concept of reality,
P.S.: this worked fine in general, but soon a few didn’t like it.
But – hey!, a moral: what the hell does life care what men like!? — that’s reality’s job!
— now is it getting clearer!? —

One man began to discover strange rubber balls in his backyard, yet through it all continued to insist that he remains one of Europe’s leading museums.
Some dietary news: you can either indulge in familiar, comfy foods, like chocolate or partake again of mental items, already heard, which first time ’round, made you laugh,
Whether you understood, and digested them or not.
“Papa, is that why the news changes so little from day to day!?”,
“You mean from life time to life time, don’t you son!?”
“Yes. Papa – and even then, why does the news change so little?”,
“Well son”, (softly chuckled the old man), “Now we wouldn’t want reality
Shifting so abruptly as to cause the simple to cancel their subscriptions.”,
And this seemed to satisfy the lad, and shortly he asked:
“Can I go out now and feed the birds?”, and the elder replied:
“Just as long as you remember that you are one of them.”,
And with a happy chirp, off the boy went.

On this one planet of conscious creatures,
The ultimate insult was to call another, a “Fat-head”!, …But in their case they internally mean it — literally!

Just between him and his dog,
One guy thought of his mythical tv show as:
“The unexpected, brought to you on a regular basis”.
95032-5

Some neighborhood kids were skippin’ and a’singin’:
“Sticky is as sticky does,
My mind draws thoughts as my navel does fuzz.”
And an adult stuck a head out a door and yelled: “Hey-y-y, you kids ain’t from around here!”

And now some news about the news: (it defined) news: gossip that the simple hope may effect them,
* * *
A man asked the corner butcher:
“Why is it arranged so that we’re all excited and energetic when we’re young and dumb, then start to wear down just about the time were getting old enough to where we should actually know something!?”
And the man with the kidneys in his hand replied:
“Hey, what d’ya I look like – the neighborhood astrologer or somethin’ !?”
* * *
One, man noted: “Drugs make my gums shrivel up”, and someone asked him if he
Was sure he meant his gums!?, and he thought for a moment then replied thaw
/I’ he was certain that the shrinking was somewhere in his head (1”’)
Moral : have not the perhaps, ill-founded audacity to call their self a, “Bird brain” ’til thy haveth full understanding of what the bird may
Actually symbolize. “Hark, hark) Horatio! — cool it) and chill,
Til you know the deal!”

A certain man went to seek entry into a mystical school,
And as the head master considered his application
He was told to stand over there and wait,
And the man pointed down to the spot where he was standing and asked: “Here?”,
And was told, no,
So he shifted several feet to the left and asked: “Here?”,
And was told, no,
So he then moved over in the opposite direction and asked: “Here?”,
And again was told, no,
And he began to suspect where this was going.

Looking out the window’s fun,
But it won’t hardly get the — job done.

And in what may be a related story,
A certain neurologist, (strictly on the sly),
Now suggests some evidence that would show that those who can think in
Ways far beyond the norm,
Do not have brains divided into two hemispheres,
But rather into at least three…
…(and perhaps even more south of the equator).

A children’s tale of the mysterious
A band of young seekers sought out a certain mystic with the request that
They be permitted to stay and study with him, and he agreed, but gave them the
Immediate, introductory statement:
“Only you can make this miraculous journey,
All I can do is give travel advice.”,
And afterwards as they sat together talking one of the neophytes said:
“I wonder if that is true?”,
And another responded: “Well even if it is true, it’s also a way for him to,
In advance – explain and excuse any failure on his part.”,
And just then the wise one walked by and added to their conversation:
“But, time already that you realize that at the level of perceived reality,
Anything that seems true always explains and excuses what needs to be.”
And a mama mystic scolded her symbolic son:
“You shouldn’t tell stories like that to children.” and he replied: “But how else to stop them being sop”

Reality equals expectations., life equals surprises,
This is why most people favor reality over life,
A mystic doesn’t favor anything over life.
