  • Lover

    Lover song disappear

    With a lover you are a drink, a delightful drink.
    With a lover you are a happy song.
    You want to be with a lover not to talk about anything, but to disappear. – A.H. Almaas

  • Remorse

    Remorse opens the soul

    In a particular way

    The soul weeps as His Mercy showers

    And cleanses her

    Separation from God is the soul’s

    Deepest grief

    God knows and walks beside you

    At every step

    One moment of separation

    Creates an ocean of tears in the soul

    God knows

    And is already blessing those tears

    With His Mercy

    Before the soul discovers them

    God knows

    The sorrow of separation

    All his children will weep   –   J Harper

  • Chemistry

    Chemistry

    When you get together with someone, either your wave-forms mesh or they don’t. Or maybe they just neutralize each other. So it’s not just chemistry. The chemistry is just the juicy stuff that happens once the wave-forms have registered each other. – Jose Arguelles

    One concept corrupts and confuses the others. I am not speaking of the Evil whose limited sphere is ethics; I am speaking of the infinite. – Jorge Luis Borges

    “The “RX” sign seen on all pharmacies, is a prayer to Horus, the Egyptian God of Healing. Chemistry comes from Khem (Egypt). Alchemy – the father of psychedelia…from Al (God) Khem (Egypt).

  • Kosmokrator – The Infinite

    kosmokrator

    According to Iranian mythology, the dualistic forces of Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu were born to a supreme being known as Zurvan, who symbolised infinity. In the Roman cult of the god Mithras, which developed primarily from Iranian sources, the concept of `infinite time’ was symbolized by a lion-headed deity. Statues depicting this leonine figure show the twelve signs of the zodiac on its chest and a snake curling up over the top of its mane. Although the deity is not identified by name (although it is occasionally linked with Aeon, a gnostic god of time), scholars of Mithraism describe it as a kosmokrator, the controlling intelligence behind the phenomenon of precession of the equinoxes.

    Isaac Asimov wrote over 500 books during his lifetime (1920-1992). He has the honor of being the only person who has authored a book in each of the Dewey Decimal System classifications.

  • The Pearl Beyond Price

    One of my favorite Rumi poems (translated by Coleman Barks – Like This)

    Yesterday at dawn, my Friend said,
    How long will this unconsciousness go on?
    You fill yourself with the sharp pain of Love,
    rather than its fulfillment.

    I said, “But I can’t get to You!
    You are the whole dark night,
    and I am a single candle.
    My life is upsidedown
    because of You!”

    The Friend replied, I am your deepest being.
    Quit talking about wanting Me!

    I said, “Then what is this restlessness?”

    The Friend, Does a drop
    stay still in the Ocean?
    Move with the Entirety, and
    with the tiniest particular.
    Be the moisture in an oyster
    that helps to form one pearl.

    Oyster = ego shell
    Moisture = human vulnerability
    Pearl = real human being

    Love is an existence, not a reaction, not an activity.

    It is not a thought, or an emotion. – A.H. Almaas
