Everything


Everything which we think... can become a reality:

If we think strongly enough. Do we think strongly enough?

Distracted by fantasy masquerading as entertainment and education we stagger astray:

The Pearl of Great Price stands so staggeringly close we are blinded by our own physical presence. Like a burden to ourselves we stand; and wonder why.

Be all that there is: for we are that.

The Rules of Warriors

The Rules of Warriors:

1st Rule - that everything that surrounds us is an unfathomable mystery.

2nd Rule - we must try to unravel these mysteries, but without ever hoping to accomplish this.

3rd Rule - that a warrior, aware of the unfathomable mystery that surrounds him and aware of his duty to try to unravel it, takes his rightful place among mysteries and regards himself as one. Consequently, for a warrior there is no end to the mystery of being, whether being means being a pebble, or an ant, or oneself. That is a warrior's humbleness. One is equal to everything.

Starving

"... People in this civilization are starving in the middle of plenty. This is a civilization that is going down, not because it hasn't got the knowledge that would save it, but because nobody will use the knowledge."

Idries Shah, 1975
