daily #meditatin...in the total attention of meditation, there is no knowing, no recognition, nor the remembrance of something that has happened. Time and thought have entirely come to an end, for they are the center which limits its own vision. At the moment of light, thought withers away, and the conscious effort to experience and the remembrance of it, is the word that has been. And the word is never the actual. At the moment - which is not of time - the ultimate is the immediate, but that ultimate has no symbol, is of no person, of no god...K

rain is a symbol of washing away the old so that growth can occur. Rain cleanses and nourishes as well as destroys. Depending on the force and timing, rain can be a welcomed friend or a feared enemy. Nature is full of duality. What can seem good to some can be bad to others. It's all about the meaning we attribute to something. The same can go for our words and deeds. Are we living every day of our life with the best intentions and are we offering nourishment instead of negativity?

#meditation is the ending of thought...it is only then that there is a different dimension which is beyond time...K

#karma - There is really no such thing as what we call karma...Cause and effect are not two different things. The effect of today will be the cause of tomorrow. There is no cause, isolated, which produces an effect; they are interrelated. There is no such thing as a law of cause and effect, which means that there is really no such thing as what we call karma. To us, karma means a result with a previous cause, but in the interval between the effect and the cause there has been time. In that time there has been a tremendous lot of change and therefore the effect is never the same. And the effect is going to produce another cause which will never be merely the result of the effect. Do not say, -I do not believe in karma- that is not the point at all. Karma means, very simply, action and the result, with its further cause. Sow a mango seed and it is bound to produce a mango tree-but the human mind is not like that. The human mind is capable of transformation within itself, immediate comprehension, which is a breaking away from the cause, always...K

Is the meaning of karma - to accept things as they are? Does karma mean accepting things as they are without question?

#Karma is one of the peculiar words we use, it is one of those words in which our thought is caught. The poor man has to accept life in terms of a theory. He has to accept misery, starvation, squalor, because he has no energy to break away and create a revolution. He has to accept what life gives him, and so he says, "It is my karma to be like this; and the politicians, the big ones, encourage him to accept his misery. The educated man, the man who has achieved, who has inherited, who has come to the top of things, the man who has power, position and the means of corruption - he also says, "It is my karma. I have done well in a previous life and now I am reaping the reward of my past action. But is that the meaning of karma - to accept things as they are? Does karma mean accepting things as they are without question, without a spark of revolt - which is the attitude many of us have? So you see how easily certain words become a net in which we get caught, because we are not really alive. The true significance of that word karma cannot be understood as a theory; it cannot be understood if you say, "That is what the Bhagavad-Gita says". So what is important is to throw off all authorities and investigate, find out, and not compare. To compare is the very nature of a mind that is not awake to discover what is true. You say, "That is so, it is like what was said by the Buddha", and you think you have thereby solved your problems. But really to discover the truth of anything, you have to be extremely active, vigorous, self-reliant; and you cannot have self-reliance as long as you are thinking comparatively. Self-reliance brings a certain freedom in which you discover; and that freedom is denied to you when you are comparing...K

are we building the wall of truth, brick by brick, story by story, until the facts cannot be ignored, and then things have to change?

Often I ask...am I happy enough yo be #happy?

My favorite ritual...hekate!
