Everything here run by perceptions meanings Onto self onto others materials even what is formless not left out That ‘thing’ which is not really a ‘thing’ but named a ‘thing’ separated out from wholeness defined by ‘colors’ and intensity of its sub-origin then named ‘a tree’ and it is ‘green’ and so on and so […]

Returning to Peace
Posted in Attitudes, Going Inwards on Mar 28th, 2011
Peace is the closest word, if not the chosen word to the un-wavered state of non-movement and stillness. It is not really a feeling though it feels like it, so it would be wise not to conclude that when there are triggers, peace is gone or that there is no peace. Peace is not something […]
The Silent Witness
Posted in Excerpts from Books, Going Inwards on Mar 25th, 2011
Almost every ego contains at least an element of what we might call “victim identity”. Some people have such a strong victim of themselves that it becomes the central core of their ego. Resentment and grievances form an essential part of their sense of self. Even if your grievances are completely “justified,” you have constructed […]
Losing Idols
Posted in Going Inwards, Ideas on Mar 23rd, 2011
When J says to lose idols, he did not mean to stop having or cease to have for that is beyond control; but to realize that idols are not what fulfils and is not what you truly want. What he meant was to lose the middleman, and to start here with yourself – acknowledging what […]
You Bring In What You Allow
Posted in Excerpts from Books, Going Inwards on Mar 22nd, 2011
None of you are victims of someone else’s actions toward you. You bring into your life what you allow to come in. If you say “no” to what you don’t want, you bring in what you do want. It is that simple. The only factor that makes all this complicated is that you don’t always […]
More to Unravel
Posted in Attitudes, Going Inwards, Ideas on Mar 21st, 2011
In each person or situation that I come across with, there is a little piece of me in each that warrants the meet – whether a quality that I admire, or detest, or perhaps even one that I am already at peace with, it is there, unless I am totally oblivious of it. And they […]
The soul of good in things evil
Posted in Excerpts from Books, Poems on Mar 19th, 2011
Evil only relative The lover invoked blessings on that rough patrol, Because their harshness had wrought bliss for him. They were poison to most men, but sweets to him, Because those harsh ones had united with him with his love. In the world there is nothing absolutely bad; Know, moreover, evil is only relative. In […]
The Lingering Illusion
Posted in Excerpts from Books on Mar 18th, 2011
Seek not outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an idol falls. Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there can be no peace excepting there. Each idol that you worship when God calls will never answer in His place. There is no other answer you can substitute […]
The Husband Leaves
Posted in Going Inwards, Poems on Mar 17th, 2011
The husband leaves the door, together with her dreams; all of which she thought was hers, leaves together with him. A subtle clinging, she notices – the fear of losing the beloved; as he potentially walks with another; it might not be her at the finale. Yet when she saw the light, that surrounds him, […]
Past Wisdom, Present Ignorance, Future Realisation
Posted in Going Inwards, Ideas on Mar 17th, 2011
What I can recognise now is a past realisation a past wisdom hence my present ignorance. What I cannot recognise now will be a future realisation a future wisdom so to speak if realised making it another future ignorance never ending. For that I can never know when there is wisdom or when there is […]
