Guest guest Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Sam it's a while that amigo magazine doesn't show up weren't you its English translator? Marifa - Sam Pasiencier LivingOsho Cc: ; NDSN ; sannyas-list-new Friday, November 17, 2006 1:55 AM Fw: [nondualnow] the sea said.doc I found this old piece while searching for other stuff.. Once upon a time there was a restless soul who went looking for the infinite to help it come to terms with all the sorrows and pleasures of the finite.. It had found so much and lost so much it was literally at its wit's end... At such a moment it couldn't stay all cooped up inside and needed to go out into the world into the biggest places it could find.. a mountain ..or even the sky.. or maybe the sea.. This day it chose the sea, certain that the sea would have a message that would calm its restless hunger... so off it went (and by the way it packed a picnic because even the infinite has to eat).. Many other infinites, thinking themselves finite, were standing on the same platforms, riding the same trains, buses, and street cars, and then walking, hurrying along the streets to reach the same sea-light, but they were all very busy being finite and hiding the sea-light in their eyes... Alone at last and walking on the hard-packed sand it hurried to the very edge where the water comes and goes, ..the eyes already somewhat calmer under the shimmering sky and gazing at that distant perfect line where one seems to begin and the other end... and then the sea gave answer to the question that it couldn't ask and the sea said shhhhh... the sea said shhhhh...the sea....
