Sunday Stream (198) ~ Sea of Tranquility

Post by mtmynd » March 15th, 2009, 12:44 pm

Sea of Tranquility
The Stream appears as a torrent, roaring quickly towards the Sea of Tranquility that embraces all regardless of quantity, quality or momentum. It matters not to the Sea of Tranquility, the ultimate destination of the Stream that carries every thing and no thing to where death becomes life and life becomes death... the circular wheel of existence that turns and churns with perfect dualism in the eternal vastness of pure consciousness that creates and destroys in a holy recycling program that all life on all levels both known and unknown participate. This Cosmic Consciousness is the prime Absolute that is both One and All giving freely of its gift in a spectacular mystery that suspends logic and reality for these two human qualities are unable to comprehend anything beyond what mind provides.

Our perception of reality is illusory. The Truth is Now where time and space are subjects that have no purpose for these are qualities of the flesh that owes its existence to the first breath exhaled from the depths of the Sea of Tranquility in an eruption of Light that illumined infinity for eternity.

Nothing to say about this one Cecil.
Well maybe one word
it gave me that Oceanic feeling which is of the flesh too
like space and time

The Truth is Now where time and space are subjects that have no purpose for these are qualities of the flesh that owes its existence to the first breath exhaled from the depths of the Sea of Tranquility in an eruption of Light that illumined infinity for eternity.


that was so nicely worded
I have such a feeling of longing for the sea in me.

speaking of telescopes this should be interesting

Kepler

TY for the stream

Gracias, amigo. SOC is 'first thought/first word' as you know.. you write that way yrself. the particulars of words stymies me at times... not knowing how my choice of words entered into the dialogue, when i go to rereading what i'd written. i'm sure that's one of the mysteries of writing many writers wonder about. but i do appreciate your liking that paragraph. really.

it gave me that Oceanic feeling...

this gave me an instantaneous connection to Osho. He changed his name to 'Osho' fro that word 'oceanic.' i haven't visited his website in quite some time but since that connection was made i felt i needed to. i went to Osho's 'Thought of the Day'. this is what it says -
You have the source of energy.
Whatever happens in your life needs your energy.
If you cut the source of energy and —
in other words that's what I call identification —
if you don´t identify with anything, it immediately becomes dead,
it has no energy of its own.
and non-identification is the other side of watchfulness
that interested me. i had just posted a rather lengthy reply to a fellow's reply to me on AC and this seemed to have a connection.

in perusing the web this a.m. i came across what i found to be an extremely interesting discussion between (2) PHD scientists that you'll find interesting, i'm sure -

enjoy.

Thanks for the link, you are right, very interesting

I will be reading it again.

This bit just popped out at me and I wondered what nazz would think of it
Now it's only a matter of money -- bigger and bigger accelerators, that's the way to go. But that can only go on so long, so many physicists are looking for new questions to ask.
So if I am reading Osho correctly, watchfulness without detachment is an illusion?

watchfulness is the opposite of non-identity
non-identity has no life
watchfulness is awareness... a'wakefulness
which is the source of (our) energy.

If in death we
could curl up again
as in womb and then unfurl
back into spirit

it would be a more preferable death

to this aged waning.


Or to rather rush like a torrent
swept along a tranquil path
split millisecond demise

again I'd choose that.

Here's to understanding...may it rear its pretty head.


I like that photo...would make a good deathbed view! One's spirit slipping into that and enveloped. :)


Good reading, mt. A stroll by Sea of Tranquility is just the ticket on a cloudy day not drear but threatening.
I used to walk with my head in the clouds but I kept getting struck by lightning!
Now my head twitches and I drool alot. Anonymouse

ahh mouseyone...

the cognizant beaver dreams of bigger teeth and larger families, dam the world!

but treasures undug remain glittering in the eyes of man
the only thing left in Pinochleville that swears by life in rhyme.

... swing softly sweet cheerio... swing softly.

thank you as much as you need... i will.

;)

beautiful design and nobody still really claiming autoría, great!!!!!!! :lol:

Is fuzzy, is crumbling, and it is ambiguous -- that's a word I like to use. Somehow there's a basic ambiguity at the center of the world -- the center of the inanimate world, the unconscious world. ... interesting!, I´ll read the following later!!!!!!!! :)

I like that photo...would make a good deathbed view! One's spirit slipping into that and enveloped. ... great image, mousey!!!!!!!! :D

thanks for the stream & thread!!!!!!!!
saludos,

Arcadia
