Re: Harsha on Sanskrit

Nothing that appears is out of place.There is nothing that appears

that doesn't change and disappear.Only *That* which is before any

appearances were, neither depends upon changing nor remaining

the same ...Peace,Dan Dear Dan, So glad you are here again.

Thanks for your commentary.Especially the last line.I was nodding

along and it woke me up!So often we hear of *That* aseternal and

unchanging. Would you care to say more about the 'nor remaining the

same' ?Sounds good! Be back Fri,Hello & Goodbye,Love,Glo

Hi Glo!Ha! Even these eternal boots can't step in the same

unchanging river even once ... ;-)Who's stepping there then?Why,

it's a pair 'o ducks!Once I say something, my words will either

change and disappear, as you read something new -- or they will

remain and you will think about them.What neither changes nor

remains?Certainly, not these words!But, of course, that's not good

enough!You want me to say it!And I want to, I want to!If *it* could

remain the same, it would have some kind of quality that could be

ascertained and regarded as unchanging -- thus, being regarded as

remaining or unchanging, it wouldn't be beyond qualities or

time, as it is ...But even saying that constructs an idea ...And that

idea will either change or remain!Dratz!!!!!Still, it's only love

speaking ;-)Love,DanDear Dan,

Love speaking!

Yes, I hear you!

Can read a lot of fancy ideas here,

me, I'm just looking if they are giving

any reason for more love.

Then who needs an excuse for that?

"Pardon me, but I love you." Ha!

Those few words of yours,

"nor remaining the same"

worked like a koan.

At first, just opening up some space,

they kept bobbing up

in 'ye old thought stream.

(especially watching those waves roll in at the beach)

Yes, of course,"it" has to be so,

as you say,

can't pin it down,

otherwise "it" would be bound,

and unfree.

"What neither changes, nor remains?"

you ask,

Hmmmm... no idea!

How about 'now'?

- but beyond time, not time, you know...

Not a what,

Glo
