b42 (5.18.5.2005): die-nasty

die-nasty [1]                             
by w. inner
 
we lived by one, short, simple rule:
we right, alright: (you sin)
we only had one, simple goal
we had one mantra: win
 
and so we won, most every time
and so we the world could see
and so we didn’t realize, in time
 
we: die-nasty
____________________________________
 

• when the only goal is winning, then we have to “defeat” those “other” guys.  the whole idea is the perpetuation of separation. 

• when “winning” is the only goal, we never (Really) One.

b42 (5.10-1.2005): empty

                    empty [1]                               

by m. t. eeye

 

sometimes there’s a void

a something deep inside

a nothing, full of hunger

just thumbing for a ride

a dark depression: lonely

a space no one can fill

i hope that i meet spirit, and

i think i know i will

b42 (5.8-2.2005): duality is Oneness

duality is Oneness [1]                           
by d. u. ality
 
duality is Oneness
the opposite of Whole
the left and right of In-Complete
the back and forth of Soul
the us and them of All In One
the up and down of Here
the in and out of Now, again
the black and white of fear
 
duality is Oneness
this is-n’t hard to See
the ebb and flow of Ocean, wave
the i and you of We
_____________________________
 

• from this Perspective, the duel of dual is Really One. 

• if so, this is not an earthly perspective.

before the bells

b41 (4.8-5.2005): what the bleep

what the bleep [1]                                         

by joal martino

 

welcome to my world.  i’m not sure if any of you actually exist, but i believe that you do – here – in the recesses of my mind and soul.

 

it probably doesn’t matter, anyway.

 the One is the One, and matter is no matter, and so what?

 

but let’s address the cosmic god-force practically, from the earthly perspective, so that we can (maybe) make some sense of what we are doing here.

 

first of all, we can assume that illusions are common.  we know that our eyes deceive.  we know that a huge object (a building, for example) can appear to be small, from a distance.  we “see” that the sun rises in the east and “sets” in the west, but we know that this perception is deception.

 

we hear the sound of a baseball, hitting a bat… but we hear it after seeing it happen.  we see lightning, but hear the instantaneous sound of thunder much later.  we “taste” with our mouth, but then experience non-taste when we pinch our nose closed as we eat.

 

our senses deceive.  no -- better yet, our senses are only able to provide us with a bit of the truth, at the sensory level.  in Truth, there are many truths, at many levels, simultaneously truth-ing.

 

we only (Really) “Know” (Capital “K”) ONE thing:

 I Am

 

we interpret every-thing based upon limited senses and limited experience, based upon memories based upon limited senses and limited experience.  it’s like a caterpillar, basing butter-flight on the experience of crawling.

 

at the worm-level, the caterpillar cannot conceive of flight.  at the Inner-Level of Collective Memory or Collective Cognition, that which is caterpillar becomes the butterfly.

 

think about that: in all of your crawling, creeping ugly-ness… you (yes, You) are the Beauty and Perfection that is the butterfly.

 

let’s get this on record:

 

you, at your very worst… 

…are the very pinnacle of Perfect Oneness, Perfect Love, and 

Perfect Expression.

 

we just don’t experience it that way, at this level.

_______________________________________________

 

what does this mean to you and me (here)? 

1. we are (in effect) living within our own, Virtual Reality Move-ie.
2. we create, we man-u-facture our fractured reality.
3. we may (or may not) “exist” as we know it.
4. we “know” very little, and we have forgotten most of what we Really Know.
5. we are here to experience this realm of perception, and we have quite a bit of creative-control over that which we experience.
6. like it or not, we are creating our own future with every thought, every word, every action.

b40 (3.25-1.2005): pms

pretty mean scene                            
 
by p. m. scene
 
it’s just a little syndrome
a slight hormonal flow
a license to be crazy
a little touch & go
a quarter of my time in states of horror and duress
 
it’s just a little, monthly visit:
welcome (p.m.s.)

b40 (3.17-3.2005): dream/vacation

 
dream/vacation                                            
by God i think he’s got it!
 
I took a Dream Vacation
 
away from Quiet, yes
away from Peace and Harmony
away from Nothing-ness
away from Truth
away from All
away from Love, it seemed
 
i took a dream-vacation, yeah,
a night-mare of a Dream
________________________________________________
 

• a vacation of the Mind can take One anywhere.  a dream vacation can seem like it is real, even though it is fantasy.  it, at base, is a search for Love. 

• the G∞d thing about a material, dream/vacation is the Coming Home… to the Knowing that Love Is the One-ly Entity.  “Game over” is G∞d! 

• here, in earth-school, a dream-vacation is a wonderful, fantasy thing – usually until you begin it. 

• in Spirit, a Dream Vacation takes One into the Dream, but the True Exhilaration comes when One re-Members.

b40 (3.8-2.2005): d.c.i.

d.c.i. [1]                             
by digital cinema interactive
 
Inter-Active Movie
void of space and time
thought is the director
future undefined
_______________________________________
 

• on the MSI web page today, the topics are interactive movies (DCI), robot caregivers, symbolic art, and the new infiniti M (a car). 

• is this a hint? 

• will we (someday) direct our own movies, with our thoughts and with our words?  

• will we someday relate to robotic caregivers in ways that we (apparently) now relate to people?  

• is art simply a symbol of the symbol of life?  is art Life?  is Life, art? 

• is infinity getting a little more affordable?  is it becoming something that we are more able to experience and grasp? 

• are we ALREADY living in a matrix of Virtual Reality, and is Thought ALREADY the Director, and do our words ALREADY change the future? 

• is “matter” Real, or is the material matrix of duality merely a living, breathing, robotic façade – acting out the images of Higher Thoughts and Image-I-Nations? 

• isn’t the future ALREADY undefined, with multiple potential plots, multiple potential “endings,” and multiple potential twists and turns along the journey?

b39 (2.27-2.2005): "everybody does it"

“everybody does it” [1]                                  
by teena g. ers (on drugs)
 
“everybody does it”
 
they snow-ski in the nude
they ice their bony asses off, then “smoke a boner, dude”
addicted to the powder
and running in the blind
 
yeah, “everybody” does it (now i think i lost my mind)
_______________________________
 

• the term “everybody” is contextual. 

• “everybody” on the “international co-ed naked snow-ski & hemp team” might sound like “everybody,” but it might (really) mean one snow-skier out of every million. 

• beware, when your teen (or poly-tee-shein) tells you that “everybody” does it.

brain [1]

by ifionly h. adone

maybe i’d be special
maybe i’d be sane
maybe i’d be human (if i only had a brain)

______________________________________

• then again, maybe it’s the brain’s senses that propagate the insane notion of separation and special-ness.

• if it doesn’t make sense, then it’s probably out of this world.
