As dying exists nowhere, it is absolutely unreal.
Tulku Thondup
Peaceful Death, Joyful Rebirth: A Tibetan Buddhist Guidebook
Picture
Things go on in our psyches when we let creativity through that challenges our everyday control of things
or that challenge our culture's definitions
​of what appropriate behavior might be.
​Part of standing up to fear of death, fear of guilt,
fear of aloneness, fear of joy, and fear of life
is standing up to take in the wild.

Whatever the cost.
I can also resist the temptation to domesticate.
When we domesticate self, God, or other beings,
we are defanging them, emasculating them,
removing the wild from them.
This is not a good spiritual practice.
There must be some wildness left in our lives.

Foolishness and wisdom go together, after all,
and folly is a certain response to wildness.
To follow one's imagination is often an act of folly,
​ a wild act deserving of Spirit's presence.

For Spirit itself is wild, very, very wild.
We are transmitters of Spirit.
Spirit and we create together.
We must trust Spirit.
We must trust the wild again. 
    ~Matthew Fox
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2017/08/06/24573/
We must become ignorant
Of all we've been taught,
And be, instead, bewildered.
Run from what's profitable and comfortable
If you drink those liqueurs, you'll spill
The spring water of your real life.
Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live.
Destroy your reputation.
Be notorious.
I have tried prudent planning
Long enough, from now
On, I'll live mad.
~Rumi

For the first time the sun kissed my own naked face
and my soul was inflamed with love for the sun,
and I wanted my masks no more. 
And as if in a trance I cried,
“Blessed, blessed are the thieves who stole my masks.” 
Thus I became a madman.

 AFTERNOON.....................
Imagine you have two bottles filled with perfume: as receptacles they are separate, but the fragrances that escape from them rise up do not remain separate for very long and they mix. What is the purpose of this imagery? Well, human beings can be compared to bottles of perfume, in that their bodies are separate but with their thoughts and feelings they are able to meet with other human beings and even with entities from the invisible world. Only, we do not meet with anyone we want; we can only reach the souls and spirits in the visible and invisible worlds that correspond to what we ourselves are, because it is just a phenomenon of resonance that is at work here. The purpose, therefore, of prayer, meditation and all spiritual exercises is that they help us elevate our inner self and as we do so, by the power of affinity, we meet with ever purer and ever more luminous spirits.

Only people who are deprived of love imagine that God is love.
Love is a human emotion.
Picture

​ AFTERNOON..................................
 Love is not what you do.
​ Love is the way you are.
Most human beings are conceited, most of the time.
For them to experience love,
they have to identify
​ with the one who is in front of them.
Love as many think
is not just an emotion
But a rail that guides
Our thought and emotion
from the barrenness of
exclusion to the harvest
of inclusive existence.
Love is not just a bond
But a balloon that buoys
you to the borders of Boundlessness.

Rupture and repair
​Matt Licata


It is no secret that, for many, intimate relationship is one of the great amplifiers of the unlived life. We can count on our partners to relentlessly illuminate everything that is unresolved within us. Not because they have some agenda to do so, but simply by the nature of the crucible that is formed when we allow another to truly matter to us.

We come to our relationships with an already-existing patterning that formed long ago. While this template longs to be updated, until reconfiguration it looms over us and colors our perception. It functions by way of a time machine where, when activated, it is as if we have left the “here and now,” crossed the liminal, and found ourselves back in the “there and then.”
There are aspects of ourselves that are aching to come out of the shadows and into the warmth of holding awareness. Not to harm, but as emissaries of wholeness. There is nothing like a close relationship to remind us of the orphaned feelings and vulnerable parts that have lost their way in the tangle of somatic and psychic pathways. They are exhausted from a long voyage to reach us, but have not given up.

The reminder of this truth can at times be a bit agonizing, as the other seems to have extraordinary powers to open the raw, tender, and naked dimensions of our being. But this achiness is sacred. Inside the ache is a jewel. Go there.
Please be kind to your partners and the inevitable conflict that will arise as you make this journey together. Training ourselves to harness the energy of conflict – and engage it directly, skillfully, and with an open heart – is the activity of inner and outer revolution, and requires the encoding of new circuitry.

The transformative art of rupture and repair is one that is endlessly profound, revealing that relationships of vast depth and meaning are not those free of conflict, but ones where working through conflict is embraced as path, where the participants are transformed into an alive vessel of purification, love, and healing.
This is a difficult realization to come by, and one that is unfortunately not all that popular in a world that has forgotten the gold buried in the dark. But here we are. It is up to us to bring these fruits into the collective.

August 5
When we forget our true nature,
we depend on the rules of others
and become their willing slaves.
    From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 72
Leading and ruling are easy to confuse.
The leader who needs obedience
is a ruler, a monarch,
who imposes laws and regulations.
This regulation creates a sense of safety
in the minds of the ruled,
so they willingly abandon
their own wild and authentic nature.
A ruler’s motives might be good,
but the spirit of the ruled
can’t help but be diminished.
A leader kindles the people’s spirits
and helps them express and fulfill
their own destiny.​
Anarchy is a fearful thing.
We have been taught for so many generations
to be afraid of our true nature,
that we can’t imagine ever trusting it.
This fear of self is what makes us so vulnerable
to the agendas of power-seeking people.
It is also what keeps us trapped in a paradigm of society that no longer works.
Lao-Tzu was essentially a “cooperative anarchist”
- one who believed that human beings were intrinsically capable of directing their own community life without the need for structured authority.
It seems utopian and fanciful to us today,
and it seemed so in Lao-Tzu’s day as well.
Yet his words still resonate more than two millennia later.
They vibrate a string deep within the human spirit
that sings to us and tells us that we have lost our way;
that we have surrendered something precious in the name of comfort and safety.
Can we find it and reclaim it?
I think we can,
because our current paradigm is collapsing and
our authentic nature is patiently waiting to assist us.
Bill Martin

 72
When they lose their sense of awe,
people turn to religion.
When they no longer trust themselves,
they begin to depend upon authority.

Therefore the Master steps back
so that people won't be confused.
He teaches without a teaching,
so that people will have nothing to learn.
Tao Te Ching
Stephen Mitchell Translation
​http://www.taoteching.org.uk/index.php?c=72&a=Stephen+Mitchell
Stephen Mitchell Commentary
for # 72 Tao Te Ching

Therefore the Master steps back:
 He doesn't act as guru or messiah,
because he doesn't, want to keep people dependent on him,
and thus spiritually immature.
 When people start to treat him like a holy man,
he nips their adoration in the bud
and points them to their inner messiag.

  people will have nothing to learn:
They just need to unlearn.

As the very source of creation is within you,
all solutions are within you too.
Sadhguru
​
All quotes below in this font color from
​Sadhguru
​web link at the end
​ The greatest masterpiece of physical creation,
of what we know on this planet,
is the human body.
There is no physical mechanism that is as sophisticated
and as fantastic as this one.
And though there is an input from the masculine,
it is essentially manufactured
in the womb of the feminine. 
Bhairavi is the ultimate feminine nature
​ – creativity in its essence.


​ AFTERNOON........
 Today’s science is concerned with the physical nature of the universe alone.
By changing the physicality, you will only change the appearance of life –
you will not change the quality of life in any way. 
Suppose you start cycling, running, exercising, and building muscle every day, your appearance will change, socially something may change,
but in your experience of life, nothing will change. 
​You will be miserable with big muscles – that’s all.
But if you change the dimension that is beyond physicality,
everything, the way you exist, the way you perceive life will change.
Your very connection with the universe will change.
After all, you can’t really make anything that’s life.
Life is for you to perceive and experience.
The choice you have is to perceive and experience it more profoundly. Unfortunately, that dimension has been completely ignored in today’s world because of this madness about the physical.
Sadhguru
Above Sadhguru quotes from EXCELLENT article here;
http://isha.sadhguru.org/blog/yoga-meditation/science-of-yoga/tools-tap-source-creation/?utm_source=mailchimp&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=dmq-blog
 A very modest, simple person with a basic education can, through their inner searching, come to know more about life than the greatest scholars.
It is for this reason that scientists should demonstrate
a little more humility and reserve.
God has not given them exclusive rights to knowledge.
They can control matter, but they cannot control life,
because life is not discovered by looking through a few instruments,
lenses or microscopes,
it is discovered deep within oneself.
Even someone who conducts investigations on stars and other planets can be as ignorant inwardly as if they had never left their cave.
It is a matter of consciousness.
What is the use, then, of setting out to discover the universe
if we remain inwardly as limited as someone
who has never stepped outside their remote village?
The astronaut in his shuttle travels throughout space,
but
​ the shepherd who looks after his flock in the mountains
and contemplates the starry sky in the silence of night
perhaps knows more of immensity than the astronaut.

This silence, this moment, every moment,
If it's genuinely inside you,
​ brings what you need.
Rumi
When you go through a hard period,
When everything seems to oppose you, ...
When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute,
NEVER GIVE UP!
Because it is the time and place
​ that the course will divert!
Rumi
There's nothing to believe.
Only when I stopped believing in myself
did I come into this beauty.
Sit quietly, and listen for a voice that will say,
'Be more silent.'
Die and be quiet.
is the surest sign that you've died.
Your old life was a frantic running from silence.
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
​Live in silence.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi

​ AFTERNOON....................
Those who don't feel this Love pulling them like a river,
those who don't drink dawn like a cup of spring water
or take in the sunset like supper,
those who don't want to change,
let them sleep on.
This Love is beyond the study of theology,
that old trickery and hypocrisy.
If you want to improve your mind that way,
sleep on.
I've given up on my brain.
I've torn the cloth to shreds
​and thrown it away.
If you're not completely naked,
wrap your beautiful robe of words around you,
and sleep on
Rumi
 How could you reach the pearl
by only looking at the sea?
If you seek the pearl, be a diver:
the diver needs several qualities:
he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand,
he must stop breathing,
​ and he must jump.
Rumi
       “A man once asked Rumi,
"Why is it you talk so much about silence?"
His answer:
"The radiant one inside me
has never said a word.”

​She grasped everything around her because no one was teaching her anything.
Sadhguru
see next quote below
If you are capable of bringing up your children without a single advice
 – it is very difficult believe me –
no one needs to teach them a spiritual process.
But everyone is talking with authority about things they have no clue about. Because of this, someone has to guide you to a spiritual process.
For example, my daughter was already traveling with me
when she was just three-and-a-half months old.
I drove across the country and she grew up like this with me
till she was five and went to school.
We were staying in a different home with different people every day,
and everyone wanted to teach her something.
But one rule I set was that no one should teach her anything.
No ABC, no 1,2, 3, no “Mary had a little lamb.”
No one taught her anything.
By the time she was eighteen months,
she started speaking three languages because she was all ears,
all the time.
She grasped everything around her because no one was teaching her anything.

When we know the origins of suffering
found within the synapses of our mind,
then we truly know something
that will set us free.
    From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 71
Despite the insistence of the conditioned mind,
it doesn’t start “out there.”
Nothing happens in the world
that doesn’t begin within the mind.
All fear begins there.
All confusion begins there.
All violence begins there.
All suffering begins there.
All courage begins there.
All creativity begins there.
All peace begins there.
All freedom begins there.
The professional propagandists of politics and business are some of the most sophisticated social psychologists in history.
They are aware that the most vulnerable
and accessible state of mind is that of fear.
A fearful mind is ready to accept any piece of “information”
that feeds the energy of that fear.
Information that contradicts that fear is quickly dismissed as,
“unrealistic wishful thinking.”
In the conditioned mind, fear trumps all.
What is “real?”
Who says?
My morning, my day, my life and indeed the life of the planet
is determined by the focus of my attention
and the environment of my mind - in this moment.
​Who and what is going to receive that attention?
Bill Martin
http://www.taoistliving.com/
I have wrapped the wide world in my wider self
And Time and Space my spirit's seeing are.
I am the god and demon, ghost and elf,
I am the wind's speed and the blazing star.

All Nature is the nursling of my care,
I am its struggle and the eternal rest;
The world's joy thrilling runs through me, I bear
The sorrow of millions in my lonely breast.

I have learned a close identity with all,
Yet am by nothing bound that I become;
Carrying in me the universe's call
I mount to my imperishable home.

I pass beyond Time and life on measureless wings,
Yet still am one with born and unborn things.

Pretending to know the mysteries of life,
but not recognizing our own foolishness,
is the greatest ignorance of all.
    From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 71

--

I am, indeed a foolish man.
I hide my foolishness
behind a curtain of pretty words
and hope no one will know.
But then we’re all foolish,
aren’t we?
Each in our own way.
So maybe you won’t see
behind the curtain after all.
Pay no attention to the man,
(should you catch a glimpse)
so busy behind the curtain,
manufacturing words so you might think
he really is the Great and Powerful Oz.

--

It’s not that I think that what I write is foolish. I write some good and truthful, sometimes even beautiful, poetry and prose. It’s my craft. I’ve been doing it for decades and I’m good at it. But when I slip into the illusion that I am as wise as my words, I am in great big heaps of trouble.
 I know very little of the Mystery,
and understand even less than what I know.
 Foolishness is not a terrible thing. It is the only appropriate way to feel as we stand before the Tao. Knowing we are foolish sets us free to find the wisdom we would never find in our hiding place behind the curtain of our ego. When I gaze at an image of the Andromeda Galaxy, our nearest galactic neighbor, one of billions of galaxies stretching into the infinity of the cosmos, I feel a great and wonderful fool and laugh
​a belly laugh of freedom.  
Bill Martin

 AFTERNOON....................
There is a momentum that was established,
by the Source within you,
long before your emergence into this physical body.
And with far less effort than you think,
you can tap into that momentum,
and it will serve you enormously well.

*Wu Wei is an important concept in Taoism
that literally means non-action or non-doing.
 In the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu explains that beings (or phenomena)
that are wholly in harmony with the Tao
behave in a completely natural, uncontrived way.
 The goal of spiritual practice for the human being is, according to Lao Tzu,
the attainment of this purely natural way of behaving,
as when the planets revolve around the sun. 
The planets effortlessly do this revolving without any sort of control, force, or attempt to revolve themselves, instead engaging in effortless and spontaneous movement.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wu_wei
From Bill Martin
August 1

What we call our separate life,
is simply an expression of the Tao.
When we understand this,
our life becomes the Tao Itself.
    From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 70
Wouldn’t it be grand
to let it all go?
To no longer hold in place,
with every single thought and action,
this illusion I call, “me?”
Oh, I’d still be here,
but it would no longer be
the anxious, guarded, frightened
complex of emotions
masquerading as a person.
It would be, I think,
a true human being -
being the Tao
and seeing the Tao
everywhere he looked.
Identity is a slippery thing.
We don’t let go because the “we” who is being told
(by some part of itself)
to let go - can’t possibly let go.
The true person,
the authentic human being
expressing a unique aspect of the Tao,
doesn’t need to let go.
The whole “letting go” conundrum eases
when we realize that all that is necessary
is to continue to notice our authentic nature
as it waits in every moment.
When we notice it, we become it, and the rest just slips away.
(Of course we pick it up again, sometimes only seconds later.
But a crack in the facade has occurred and another ray of light shines in.
One crack at a time
and the whole facade will crumble and,
in the light,
we will see things as they really are.

 AFTERNOON........................

​My teachings are easy to understand
and easy to put into practice.
Yet your intellect will never grasp them,
and if you try to practice them, you'll fail.

My teachings are older than the world.
How can you grasp their meaning?

If you want to know me,
look inside your heart.

​Tao Te Ching

​My words are very easy to understand
and very easy to practice,
But the world cannot understand them
and cannot practice them.
My words have their primal meaning;
My deeds have their principle.
Only I am without knowledge;
Therefore, I am not known.
If those who know me are few,
Then, what I have is of value.
Therefore, the sage is covered by coarse clothes,
​but embraces jade.

​ ​The Tao Te Ching, written in China around 600 BC,
first articulated the idea of wu wei.
“Do that which consists in taking no action and order will prevail,”
the book explains.
The idea is that we should stop trying to force action
and get comfortable doing less.
Then, when we do move, our actions are natural, energetic,
and accomplish the desired results.

Wu wei shows that when we stop making waves,
and learn to wait and watch,
we see outside forces more clearly
and make wiser moves.
Act hastily, and every step is a potential blunder,
with emotion and ego
driving our decisions more than reason.
The Tao Te Ching recommends cultivating non-action
by observing the natural world.
The skies don’t always storm; nor are birds always in flight. Stillness preserves us for action when necessary.
The Taoist storyteller Chuang Tzu
explains the idea further around 350 BC:
“From the sage’s emptiness, stillness arises;
From stillness, action.
​ From action, attainment.”
Picture
Now I know that, like all creatures,
I have a finite amount of energy.
By not acting,
we conserve energy so that we can expend it
when the moment is right.
So wu wei isn’t about resignation or laziness.
about self-preservation—an important skill.
As 2017 begins, I’m sitting still: attentive and ready.
Ephrat Livini​
