"power rest on the kind of knowledge one holds. what is the sense of knowing things that are useless?they will not prepare us for our unavoidable encounter with the unknown."

indulgence

"dwelling upon the self too much produced a terrible fatigue. a man in that position is deaf and blind to everything else. the fatigue itself makes him cease to see the marvels all around him"

"all paths are the same: they lead nowhere. however, a path without a heart is never enjoyable. on the other hand, a path with heart is easy - it does not make a warrior work at liking it; it makes for a joyful journey; as long as a man follows it, he is one with it"

reminds me and my eternal affinity with pot and growing. i am very sure 90% if not more folks on icmag could agree with me

we all are just beings on our way to our deaths. why not enjoy what we got while we gots it?

The soul through all her being is immortal, for that which is ever
in motion is immortal; but that which moves another and is moved by
another, in ceasing to move ceases also to live. Only the self-moving,
never leaving self, never ceases to move, and is the fountain and
beginning of motion to all that moves besides. Now, the beginning is
unbegotten, for that which is begotten has a beginning; but the
beginning is begotten of nothing, for if it were begotten of
something, then the begotten would not come from a beginning. But if
unbegotten, it must also be indestructible; for if beginning were
destroyed, there could be no beginning out of anything, nor anything
out of a beginning; and all things must have a beginning. And
therefore the self-moving is the beginning of motion; and this can
neither be destroyed nor begotten, else the whole heavens and all
creation would collapse and stand still, and never again have motion
or birth. But if the self-moving is proved to be immortal, he who
affirms that self-motion is the very idea and essence of the soul will
not be put to confusion. For the body which is moved from without is
soulless; but that which is moved from within has a soul, for such
is the nature of the soul. But if this be true, must not the soul be
the self-moving, and therefore of necessity unbegotten and immortal?
Enough of the soul's immortality.

Jethro Tull has some interesting takes if viewed with a mind towards spirituality...Something to the effect that god stole the handle ( power of life) and because he stole it, will someday have to pay the ultimate price and die. It was a new day yesterday but an old day now. Aqualung - the picture of this decline. Cross Eyed Mary - about the mother...some strange stuff...Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day...

This is kinda where I'm at. http://www.abundance-and-happiness.com/super-conscious-mind.html
Believing we are all powerful depending on paradigm. I spent my entire life asleep as many do until they grow enough through contrast n then ready to respect the knowledge and use it to enhance their lives as well as benefitting others
I am happy n grateful for everything past present n future,,, mind body n soul

Infinate and indestructable we are

when i met ayahuasca this past saturday

i had visions of these 2 songs. i "saw" that maynard wrote them under altered states, and how more real and true could they be?

schism-

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing.
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot seem to reach an end crippling our communication.

I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame, it doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication

The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it.
Finding beauty in the dissonance.

There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away.
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing.
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication.

Cold silence
has a tendency
to atrophy any
sense of compassion
between supposed lovers,
between supposed brothers.

I know the pieces fit [8x]

especially this one - wow

"Parabola"

We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Choosing to be here in

This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.

Alive, I

In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in

This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.

Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal.
all this pain is an illusion.

either maynard has took a ton of drugs and or power plants, or is one very brilliant and in touch individual

Tool,,, been loving them since undertow. No matter what I feel their songs follow n speak to my emotions.

I feel so much more in control since changing my paradigm and I was just reading some notes I took around 4 months ago after having what I call a spiritual epiphany.
So cool when life throws me these hidden entrances to a whole new world /culture/beliefs.
I go in thinking its something hidden because its always the path less traveled and find an entire lot of like mind thinkers.

I am ready for the entire planet to awaken.

I was just reading notes I took about 4 months ago. When I first learned these beliefs I was questioning the validity. Its natural for me to know things n dig deep. Looking back upon my notes that I wrote I remember thinking,,, just believe,,,
Now looking back I was shocked and pleased show much of it manifested and I was like
More money ,,,check
More happiness ,,,check
Better health,,, check
Better feelings ,,,check
Happier family,,,check
Multiple positive outcomes n proof,,, check
Heightened awareness and answers popping into my mind,,,more esp ,,,check
Continuous opportunities,,,check


So many benefits to consciously creating as a "part"of source rather than separated.
