For those who doesn't understand Danish, what Dan is

trying to say could be translated in one phrase:

" This show has no actors, only action. " Of course,

I could be wrong, I'm not fluent in Danish. So let

this thread go to Dannation. :))

The actor is the action, the action is the actor.

 

They both drop.

 

If I married Kate and took her name,

I could be Dannish Moss.

 

Of course, you could do the same

and be Pete Moss.

 

But I'll just eat a Danish and

kick back instead,

Dan Ish

Dan,

I think you should have let Pete translate your gobbily gook and quit

while you were ahead.

 

Eat Kate Moss instead - less filling!!

Yes, Grant, thanks.

 

I'm used to no one following what I say.

 

But all the same, it's nice to hear your

kind words.

 

And yes, there's something I'm hinting at,

that there's a difference between saying

 

drop the actor, there's only action --

 

and saying actor is action, action is actor,

actor and action drop.

 

The difference is the discontinuity here.

 

At the point of discontinuity, there is

no time, no space, no experience.

 

It's similar to a black hole.

 

Jesus said, " it is easier for a camel to

pass through the eye of a needle, than

for a rich man to enter the kingdom. "

 

Riches being anything at all brought

forward, even the idea of moving forward,

or of anything being moved into.

 

Something opens up at this point of discontinuity,

as all concept drops away of itself.

 

That something isn't a something, of course,

and it isn't anti-concepts whatsoever,

merely not-of-concepts in any way.

 

Namaste,

Dan

What Dan has written I have often found difficult and challenging to understand

but when I've persevered I've always found it absolutely lucid, truthful and

coherent. From here, what Dan writes seems very far removed from 'gobbily gook'.

You seem to be joking in this post and I don't want to be a killjoy, but there

also seems to me to be a seriousness there too.

The light is everything, budd. Can the light move

No, it can just get sucked into the darkness.

 

Do you hear a loud sucking noise?

Hi Larry --

 

Understanding can't understand itself.

 

Understand?

 

There's nothing to be understood in Dan.

 

Is now closer than then?

 

If so, then understanding has been

made into something it's not --

something that can be touched

and located.

 

Peace,

Dan

Inquiring can't Inquire itself.

 

Inquire?

 

There's nothing to be Inquired...

 

 

 

Every word is unword like birds flying behind the sun.

Larry thinks he is getting the hang of this, now and then!!!

 

with gratitude,

Light is everything that is. Darkness is what is not.

What is not is immutable, what is, transient. Place

your bet now, Budd, the roulette is spinning. No

matter where you place your chips, darkness will be

waiting.

At least two. You, Pete....

Of course I don't actually " see " you and Pere, but

I'm betting on you two actually existing. But then

I'm also betting on you existing as I write this post.

 

Does that make sense?

Maybe I'm in over my head.

The air seems thin.
