Perhaps she finds such distinctions, umm, a tad unproductive? She does like to lie in the tall grass and play with insects though. That makes real sense to her. The rest is just words, which in my experience she appears to care very little about. Ho ho!" -Peter We do not need the intermediary of the mind to come to silence. Words and phrases sentence us to death, while awareness resurrects us. Jesus spoke in parables, not wanting to be literally understood. Rumi was the same. Richness rises. Words fall like rocks upon our miserable bodies. We crave the kindness of silence. Silence is not what you think. It is what you are. There are no intellectual bullies to be found. They have hung themselves in nooses of thought. The Christ prevails. Mystery is healing to the extent that we allow it to be. Logic has been sentenced to hard labor and rest is at hand.
