A Cloud of Unknowing – Author Unknown

Osho says about The Cloud of Unknowing:
“One of the most important statements
about mysticism in the Western hemisphere
is the book called The Cloud of Unknowing.

The name of the author is not known;
it is good that we don’t know who wrote it.
It indicates one thing: that before he wrote it
he had disappeared into a cloud of unknowing.

It is the only book in the Western world
which comes close to the Upanishads,
The Tao Te Ching,
The Dhammapada.

There is a rare insight in it.
First he calls it a cloud.
A cloud is vague, with no definable limits.
It is constantly changing; it is not static –
never, even for two consecutive moments,
is it the same.

It is a flux, it is pure change.
And there is nothing substantial in it.

If you hold it in your hand just mist will be left, nothing else.
Maybe your hands will become wet,
but you will not find any cloud in your fist.

-Osho

AFTERNOON

At the center of your being
you have the answer;
you know who you are
and you know what you want.
― Lao Tzu
(also attributed to Rumi)??

The most beautiful moments in life
are moments when you are expressing your joy,
not when you are seeking it.
Sadhguru

The fear is simply because you are not living with life,
you are living in your mind.
Sadhguru

Your fear is always about what’s going to happen next.
That means your fear is always about
that which does not exist.

If your fear is about the non-existent,
your fear is hundred percent imaginary.

At the most you will die, nothing more.
At least live before you die
because anyway you will die.
Sadhguru

"…the very soul grew silent to herself
and by not thinking of self
mounted beyond self."

"...MOUNTED BEYOND SELF."

“Then,”
says the writer of the Cloud (of Unknowing)
--whispering as it were to the bewildered neophyte
the dearest secret of his love--

--“then will He sometimes peradventure
send out a beam of ghostly light,
piercing this cloud of unknowing that is betwixt thee and Him;
and show thee some of His privity,
the which man may not,
nor cannot speak.”
Evelyn Underhill –
in her Introduction to
Cloud of Unknowing

Whoever is to be poor in spirit
must be poor in all his own knowing
so that he knows nothing of God,
nothing of any created object,
and nothing of himself.
~ Meister Eckhart
https://thedawnwithin.com/the-poor-man/

This is love:
to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First to let go of life.
Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi

AFTERNOON

Experiencing Rumi's "take a step without feet".

The guises you employ
To protect yourself
From the world
Also deny you
Full access to your heart. ...

...To love fully and completely
Demands the willingness
To be annihilated.
Wu Hsin

ORIGINAL TRUTH OF BEING
IS SO BY UNKNOWING<BEING
IT IS SO
<
AN UNDILUTED CREATION
THAT HAS NO THINKING WORDS*
<
ONLY THE SILENCE OF
PRISTINE CLARITY REMAINS
AH MUNI!

3:46 AM-1/9/19

*If you wish to enter into this cloud of unknowing you must do something more:
“Just as the cloud of unknowing lies above you, between you and your God,
so you must fashion a cloud of forgetting beneath you,
between you and every living thing.

The cloud of unknowing,
will perhaps leave you with the feeling that you are far from God.
But no,
if it is authentic,
only the absence of a
cloud of forgetting
keeps you from him now…..

You are to concern yourself with no creature
whether material or spiritual
nor with their situation and doings
whether good or ill.

To put it briefly, during this work
you must abandon them all beneath
the cloud of forgetting.”[v]
https://spectrummagazine.org/article/delcy-kuhlman/2013/02/18/reading-cloud-unknowing

…the emptiness expanded rapidly
and every sense of
life became drained from her.
The realization that came was:
"When there is no personal self,
there is also no personal God.

AFTERNOON

Seaweed

I close my eyes
and breathe -
smell the seaweed
strewn across the sand,
hauntingly familiar,
the mind-madness
momentarily, magically
arrested.
Old memories
capture me
enrapture me
and I am freed
to wander
through old dreams.
Child, girl, woman
in moments of bliss
on English days.
Cold seas,
shells and seaweed.
Chalky country lanes,
the summer smell
of hot tar melting
on the road,
shimmering
like oily water
in the sun -
or a meadow,
cowslips and cowpats
sharing the space.

As I raise my face
in this foreign land
looking for release,
the smell of seaweed
more evocative
than any perfume
rescues me.
It winds itself
around me,
lingering,
like longing does.
Healing.

Senses saturated,
I drift away.
The generous sea
sends me home
on scented waves of salt.
