Rumi's desire

I don't know whether the union I want will come through my effort, or my giving up effort, or from something completely separate from anything I do or don't do. I wait and fidget and flop about as a decapitated chicken does, knowing that the vital spirit has to escape this body eventually, somehow! This desire will find an opening.

I didn't really realise there were any readers still, so thankyou for the feedback. I can't promise daily updates, but I'll put things up when I can. In the meantime:

Rumi again

Sorry about that, I kind of gave up on this site after seeing how few people actually come here. Anyway, for those that still do:
--------------------------------------------
Do you ever think I know what I'm doing?
That for one breath or for half-breath I belong to myself?
As much as a pen knows what it's writing,
Or the ball can guess where it's going next.

-Rumi

Paradox of our Age

"We have bigger houses but smaller families;
more conveniences, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less sense;
more knowledge, but less judgment;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicines, but less healthiness;
We've been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street to meet
the new neighbour.
We built more computers to hold more
information to produce more copies than ever,
but have less communication;
We have become long on quantity,
but short on quality.
These are times of fast foods
but slow digestion;
Tall men but short character;
Steep profits but shallow relationships.
It's a time when there is much in the window,
but nothing in the room."
-14th Dalai Lama

Rumi: Satisfaction

It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home

Rumi: Your task

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

A message

Humankind is part of Mother Nature, we have created nothing and so we can in no way claim to be owners of what does no belong to us.  But time and again, western legal property regimes have been imposed on us, contradicting our own cosmologies and values: image
