You ain't nothing but a hound dog, crying all the time

Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit,

and you ain't no friend of mine

They said you were high class, honey that was just a lie

Called you all high class, that was just a lie

You ain't never caught a rabbit,

and you ain't no friend of mine

sha-na-na la la

But what stands behind

this 'inert' concept

is not inert, isn't it ?

 

 

Cheers :-)

and all the dead .... well,

that chorus of

grassy bliss --

Hi Bob --

 

The greatful dead,

always giving their all --

 

nonvolitionally, choicelessly,

the all-consuming living one

moving on without a location ...

 

the ringing of the chorus

resounds through all the universes ...

 

beyond living or dying, the conflagration

that never moves anywhere ...

 

Alloveways,

Dan

)))) Last night my Beloved and I were taken to

a shaking place, and we were shifted by the

Beautiful One into a quivering ecstasy beyond

what's born and dies.

Even our spell check has no suggestions

for what happened next. It is the reason

fireflies evolved into lighted beings –

it is just such a wonder!

Here we are, writing this Bliss into narrow

buckets of wording, and even as this nectar

slides like warm electrified molasses through

the ventricles of our cardiac mystery we lie prone

upon the vastness, drenched in vastness, singing to you,

Beloved, who is nothing but our own

deliciousness come here to marvel at itself for

a moment impossible by common reckoning.

Yes, this is just such a place, a place of streaming

heartbreak at the very appearance of anything at all,

a place that only exists because the universe exists,

even in a singing shaft of starlight filled with the

emotion of extinction.

We died into life, and our funeral was attended by

rejoicing beings, happy for the ones who never were!

We Are! We Are! Why do you suppose they smile, even

as the pyre bursts into flames, especially as the pyre

bursts into a blast of blazing recognition, a cool bonfire of

remembrance, a kind of lava flow from base of earth to

crown of heaven at the campfire of stillness, the silence of

a single blossoming bird in fleet submission to the sky

of mind, enormous mind, unfathomable delight, outrageous

intoxication at the very truth that is branded on our heart,

the heart that sings us now, wordlessly, and so know

we have always been this love's refrain, the love

we somehow knew would come to claim us, and kiss

us, and sing sweet heartsongs about how beautiful it is

because it is, we are.

 

 

LoveAlways,

 

Mazie & b

bush?

 

Just come right out and say you like it!

******* Yes, it's an insult to intelligence.

I like how Wayne puts it:

 

" Your orgasm, your experience of God,

(should you be lucky enough to have one)

Will not be Enlightenment,

But the result of masturbation. "

))) These endless rounds of conversation are just attachment and

aversion- It's just more goat-shit, good for nothing at all. At the

time it seems marvelously entertaining, but really, you're just

spreading around stories about other people's mistakes. Your audience

seems to be listening politely, but then they grow embarrassed for

you. Useless talk that just make you thirsty- Forget about it! Giving

teachings without yourself having gained actual experience through

practice, is like reciting a dance-manual out loud and thinking

that's the same as actually dancing. People may be listening to you

with devotion, but it just isn't the real thing. Sooner or later,

when your own actions contradict the teachings, you'll feel ashamed.

Just mouthing the words, giving dharma explanations that sound so

eloquent- Forget about it!

))) We excercise discrimination on lists such as this, although there

are other venues where such matters can be spoken in a more explicit

manner. These so-called nondual lists often attract people who

believe they know something, and so tend to spoil the fun.

On the other hand, one might be considered in need of a refresher

course in breathing, not to mention actual reading comprehension, not

to get the transmission.

 

Oh Well!

 

 

LoveAlways,

Now we've got fun-spoilers,

noncomprehending readers, and

unrefreshed breathers...

 

Wow -- what's a poor transmission

to do?

If it weren't so pathetic, it'd be hysterical.
