Guest guest Posted July 4, 2001 Report Share Posted July 4, 2001 Hi Ho O Noble White Wolf - ...always 'banging on about the beloved" kinda thing....hence i have ceased writing poetry for the present at least writing anymore poetry...i had reached a place where i was reaching so hard i was parroting myself I am/was a painter - know this place well. I suspect that you are as impossible to live with when not writing as I am to live with when not painting. Don't you remember that when writing/painting, the world and self are one and complete and thus no need for all this stuff and no thought about what other may be up to. No place for passion here, in religious chat and thoughts of enlightenment, at least not so far. But, if an artist is not working -well........perhaps when one is not living their own authenticity, then others become suspect. Love the Dutch and Holland. Soon you will be working again. Why not write about what you are feeling -all of it - its 'authentically' yours. Poems and paintings don't have to be pretty or agreeable to others. Do a 'pissed off' piece -grin. "I send you what I send myself"- rather fine-keep on sending......If yer going to use sword of Manjushir, you have to BE Manjushri. Sounds like possibility of poems there. Hmm, maye be even some paintings. Metta, Joyce .....coming full circle back to joyce......there are three great religions in the world today (and Daniel Quinn attacks all three of them calling for a regression/progression into animism).....hinduism, buddhism and catholcism....they are equal and complementary in my view....'worship' seems to be one of the common denominations there all have in common....effete academics like myself often think that their mental concepts have elevated them above the need to rollick in the mud, ie.a, worship with the commoners....one of the many things my beloved Mira is teaching me is the need for humility....i send you all what i send myself....the noble sword of the bodhisatva Manjusri to slay all false mental conceptualization as Arjuna slayed his brothers....with a spirit of devoted to truth and beauty....with compassion and love....Namaste.....^^~~~~~ further up and further in, white wolfe - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
