A MAN NOT THOROUGHLY ASLEEP SHOULD NEVER THINK OR SAY THE WORD, “MIND”
WITHOUT THE MODIFIER, “EMPTY”, FOR THE “EMPTY MIND” IS THE ONLY ONE WORTHY OF NOTE TO THOSE WHO “KNOW-WHAT-IT’S-ALL-ABOUT”
* * *
WHAT IS IT THAT THE AWAKENED HAVE REFERRED TO AS: “ALWAYS PRESENT:
CHANGELESS & MOTIONLESS: NEVER INCREASING, NEVER DIMINISHING” ?! — “ENLIGHTENMENT”
IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE BELIEVE, BUT I SAY THAT THE REFERENCE IS ACTUALLY TO:
“ONE’S OWN NATURE”,
(WHICH INDEED, [TO THOSE THAT SEE]
IS SYNONYMOUS WITH “ENLIGHTENMENT”
…YES INDEED, ONE COULD SAY THAT: “BEING AWAKE”
IS SYNONYMOUS WITH EVERYTHING IN THE UNIVERSE EXCEPT:
“BEING ASLEEP”,
(WHICH HAPPENS ONLY WHEN YOU ARE DREAMING….AND THEN WE ARE FACE-TO-FACE WITH
THE FACT THAT “DREAMING” IS SYNONYMOUS ONLY WITH ITSELF,
IN THAT DREAMING IS THE ONLY ACTIVITY IN THE UNIVERSE WHICH
DOES NOT ACTUALLY EXIST.
WHEN TALKED ABOUT LIKE THIS,
IT CAN SUPERFICIALLY, SOUND DIFFICULT & COMPLEX,
BUT WHEN SEEN HEAD-ON, IT IS PLAIN & SIMPLE — THE VERY DESCRIPTION OF: “ONE’S NATURE”.
ALL-IN-ALL, JUST REMEMBER: IF YOU CAN “DREAM IT” — IT IS WORTHLESS. …(SO MUCH FOR TRYING TO AWAKE, HUH?!)
* * *
ONE MAPPING OF MAN, TAKEN TO THE AMUSEMENT PARK:
YOUR NATURE IS LIKE A ROLLER COASTER: YOUR DREAMING, LIKE A MERRY GO ROUND: YOUR NATURE IS LIKE A CANDY APPLE: YOUR DREAMING, LIKE A BOWL OF LOADED CHILLI: YOUR NATURE IS LIKE AN HONEST GAME OF “RING TOSS”: YOUR DREAMING, A RIGGED ONE.
…AND A BOY ASKED HIS FATHER: “WHAT IS THE ATTRACTION OF GAMES?:, WHY ARE PEOPLE MORE INTERESTED IN SPORTS THAN IN THEIR OWN CONSCIOUSNESS?”, AND THE ELDER REPLIED “BECAUSE GAMES ULTIMATELY COME TO A PREDETERMINED END, WITH A CONCLUSIVE SCORE, WHILE MAN’S INNER GAME-OF-DREAMING, (WHEN GIVEN A CURSORY GLANCE), SEEMS TO ORDINARY MEN TO BE AN ACTIVITY TOTALLY DEVOID OF RELIABLE RULES-OF-PLAY, AND ANY EXPECTATION OF FINALITY. A SPORT WITH AN ALLURE BUT TO A FEW.”
THE REASON MEN SO LOVE TO INSTRUCT ONE ANOTHER NOT TO:
“BITE OFF MORE THAN YOU CAN CHEW”,
IS DUE TO EACH MAN’S UNWITTING KNOWLEDGE THAT,
IN HIS WORLD-OF-DREAMING — NOTHING THAT IS BIT IS EVER TRULY, “CHEWED”
* * *
IN THIS UNIVERSE THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO “TRY AND AWAKEN: THE REAL WAY, AND THE FALSE WAY:
IN THE “FALSE WAY” YOU ACTUALLY — “TRY TO AWAKEN”, WHILE IN THE REAL WAY, YOU JUST — “DO IT”.
* * *
THE REASON THE NUMBER OF ENLIGHTENED MEN IN THIS UNIVERSE CANNOT BE COUNTED IS BECAUSE:
THOSE WHO WANT TO BE — AREN’T,
AND THOSE WHO ARE — WON’T PARTICIPATE •
query: IF YOU ASKED YOURSELF IF YOU ARE INDEED,”AWAKE” — HOW WOULD YOU REPLY?
* * *
PASSING CARS CAPTIVATE A DOG’S NATURE IN THE SAME MANNER THAT PASSING THOUGHTS HOLD YOUR DREAMING.
IF SUBJECT, “A” IS NOT WORTH THINKING ABOUT — THEN HOW CAN SUBJECT, “BE” BE ?!?
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO, “CHASE” YOUR NATURE,
AND IN REALIZING THIS — A MAN’S DREAMING BEGINS TO FADE.
A BOY SAID TO HIS FATHER: “WHAT IS THE TRUE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDEAS I HEAR REGARDING, ‘ENLIGHTENMENT’ THAT — MAKE SENSE,
AND THOSE IDEAS ABOUT IT, THAT DO NOT MAKE SENSE TO ME.
TELL ME, PA PA — WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?”, AND HIS PROGENITOR SAID: “AS ALWAYS, MY BOY, ANY APPARENT ‘DIFFERENCE’ YOU PERCEIVE IN THIS UNIVERSE,
IS IN FACT — IN YOU. WE HAVE YOUR, ‘NATURE’,AND WE HAVE YOUR, ‘DREAMING’,
AND THE NON-UNDERSTANDING OF THIS SITUATION IS THE BASIS OF ALL THE DIFFERENCES YOU IMAGINE YOU SEE, WHILEST YOU UNKNOWINGLY FLOAT ON THE REALITY OF, ‘ALL-BEING-ONE’.”, AND WITH THAT, THE LAD SNAPPED MOMENTARILY OUT OF HIS DREAMS,
….ONCE AGAIN. (P.S.: “ONCE AGAIN” WILL ULTIMATELY PROVE TO BE THAT
ONE TIME THAT EVERYONE WILL FIND, “CHARMED”)
A CERTAIN_ “MAPPING OF MA ” TAKEN TO HOLLYWOOD.
YOUR “WORLD-OF-DREAMING” IS LIKE AN — “INFINITE, ‘ROUGH-CUT”,
WHILE YOUR NATURE, (THOUGH COMMONLY NOT REALIZED), IS A COMMERCIAL, “BLOCK-BUSTER
NOTE: DEPEND, (IN LIFE), ONLY ON THAT WHICH IS — DEPENDABLE. …(KINDA NARROWS THE FIELD DOWN, HUH?!)
* * *
WHEN YOUR EARS ARE FILLED WITH A SUBSTANCE — YOU CANNOT HEAR: WHEN YOUR HEAD IS FILLED WITH DREAMING — YOU CANNOT LIVE -…NOT AS THE AWAKENED DO.
“EMPTINESS”! — (FROM SEVERAL OF THE BETTER VIEWS)– “EMPTINESS” IS THE KEY
IN THAT YOUR NATURE IS FILLED ONLY WITH ITSELF,
IT CAN BE SAID TO THUS BE, “EMPTY”,
BUT YOUR DREAMING IS FILLED WITH NOTHING! — A CIRCUMSTANCE THAT GIVES RISE TO THE ANTITHESIS OF, “EMPTINESS”.
IN YOUR NATURE — IT IS GOOD-D-D TO BE “FULL”,
BUT IN YOUR DREAMING, THE OPERATIONAL PHRASE IS: “A ‘FULL-MAN’ IS A – SLEEPING MAN
VARIATION ON A PREVIOUS THEME:”IF YOU’RE NOT FULL — YOU’RE NOT ‘ASLEEP’.” SO– LET’S EVERYONE — THROW UP!, I MEAN — WAKE UP!
* * *
AND A QUITE SERIOUS GENTLEMAN ASKED A QUITE SERIOUS, MYSTIC:
“JUST WHAT IS THIS, ‘WAKING UP’ YOU KEEP SPEAKING;’,OTHER THAN JUST, ‘NOT-LETTING-YOUR-M(ND-WANDER’?!”, AND THE SERIOUS MYSTIC, (IN ALL SERIOUSNESS) HAD TO REPLY: “NOT MUCH, REALLY.”, AND THE SERIOUS GENTLEMEN NODDED HIS HEAD SLIGHTLY, (THOUGH, VIGOROUSLY), AS IF EXPRESSING HIS SATISFACTION IN HAVING BEEN CORRECT IN HIS ASSUMPTION.
…(BY THE BY: JUST WHAT IS YOUR — “LATEST ASSUMPTION” ?!?)
* * *
A NOTE REGARDING: A MAN WHO WISHES TO SEE THIS GREAT MATTER THROUGH,
IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE EVER-CHANGING CONDITIONS,OF LIFE-
SINCE YOU CAN “SLEEP” UNDER EVERY SORT OF CIRCUMSTANCES IMAGINABLE,
YOU MUST ALSO BE ABLE TO “AWAKEN” WHILE AMIDST ALL POSSIBLE SITUATIONS.
(COME ON! — “FAIR’S FAIR” EVEN IN THE MYSTICAL REALM.)
IN A MOMENT OF SELF-ASSUMED, :’CLEVERNESS”,
ONE MAN ATTEMPTED TO HIRE A SPRITE TO STAND GUARD ON HIS MIND TO KEEP IT
FROM CONTINUALLY, “WANDERING-OFF”, BUT ONCE HE PRESENTED HIS OFFER TO SUCH A SPRITE
THE SPRITE REPLIED: “YOU NINNY! — AFTER ALL THIS TIME
YOU MEAN THAT YOU STILL DO NOT REALIZE THAT FOR THE ENDS YOU SEEK,
NO OUTSIDE HELP CAN BE SECURE?1″,
AND AS THE MAN LOOKED A BIT CRESTFALLEN, THE SPRITE ADDED:
“BUT THOSE WHO SEE THE MATTER TO COMPLETION ULTIMATELY ARE PLEASED OVER THE FACT
THAT WHAT YOU ARE ATTEMPTING IS SOMETHING THAT CAN ONLY BE — ‘DONE-BY-ONE’.”,
(AND HAVING HEARD THAT, THE MAN THEN APPEARED CREST-RISEN.)
NOTE: THE “SIMPLER” THINGS ARE, THE*MORE DO THEY PLEASE THE ENLIGHTENED,
….(IN FACT, IF YOU REALLY WANNA KNOW THE TRUTH! —
“SIMPLE THINGS ARE
THE ONLY THINGS
THAT EVEN REGISTER ON AN AWAKENED MAN’S MENTAL RADAR.
…[SEE! – EVEN MORE REASON TO HAVE YOUR CREST PREPARED FOR — “FUTURE ASCENSION”];
* * *
ADDITIONAL “INSIGHTS” INTO MATTERS COMMONLY CLAIMED TO BE SEEN, BUT WHICH CONSIST OF EITHER:”MORE-OR-LESS-THAN” THE STANDARD VIEW
THE REASON FOR THE CONTINUING POPULARITY OF THE PHRASE:-
“HOLD DOWN THE FORT”
IS BECAUSE EVERYONE UNSPEAKABLY UNDERSTANDS THAT IN MAN’S UNIQUE”DREAM WORLD”
THERE ARE NO REAL FORTS AND THUS NO POSSIBILITY OF KEEPING THEM UNDER
ANY CONTROL.
…(DON’T YOU THINK IT’S NEAT, HOW ROUTINELY MEN ASTOUNDINGLY SPEAK ABOUT “PLAIN, DIRECT REALITY”, WHILE JUST SLIGHTLY “TURNING THEIR HEAD”
SO AS TO PRETEND THAT THEY DO NOT FULLY REALIZE WHAT THEY ARE SEEING & SAYING?!)
…OH!, AND(“”BY-THE-BY”, ONCE AGAIN):,JUST HOW OFTEN DO YOU DO THIS?!”
* * *
QUERY: IF YOU DO NOT DREAM ABOUT- THE”VARIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES OF LIFE”,
THEN WHAT POWER OVER YOU WILL THEY HAVE WHEN THEY DO APPEAR?!
NOTE: THE ONLY PREPARATION NEEDED BY A MYSTICAL WARRIOR IN THIS STRUGGLE IS AN: “EMPTY MIND” — A DREAM WORLD WITH A BARREN LANDSCAPE.
WHEN THE DAY COMES THAT YOU CAN LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND FIND — NOTHING! — THAT.IS THE GLORIOUS DAY IN WHICH YOU WILL FINALLY REALIZE WHAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS UNWITTINGLY KNOWN, (THAT YOU ARE) ‘WELCOMED HOME.”
