Guest guest Posted September 28, 2001 Report Share Posted September 28, 2001 - Joseph Riley The Substance You Taste The sky-wheel turns us into dawn and fills creation again with color. Let it be our weakness, this thirst-love for the world, the sun coming up like red-gold being poured! The potter's wheel moves, and shapes change quickly Let the jar I am becoming turn to a wine cup Fill me with your love for being awake. I'm no hypocrite renunciate. Call me this delicious substance you taste when you create new beauty. Be strong, Hafiz! Work here inside time, where we fail, catch hold again, and climb.

Oh, the horror, eh? With all that free time on my hands, I was actually reduced to washing windows. Anyway, been trying to read the archives and catch up a bit, lots of good messages there. They were able to transfer the old hard drive to the new, so have all my stuff. Whew!

Paths, places, sights, perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
