Sunday Stream (211) ~ 228 Words (untitled)

Post by mtmynd » July 5th, 2009, 12:29 pm

228 Words (untitled)
a steed upon the pastures of tranquility running mightily towards the arcing sun setting once again as it has done since the pasture's grasses gave birth to the decadence of mammalian existence born of evolving masses whose lives are given freely towards the passage of consciousness from one life formed after another, ad infinitum, in a display of mystery that defies the logic and reasoning the mind has bestowed upon thought but yet triggers the amazement and awe to which we generously consume as nourishment to aid in our understanding and acceptance of that which we know is real but which defies all answers making processes within run double time, overtime and timeless time outs scored like games duplicating fragments of living within which we allow ourselves the time to play as does the steed at speed with the need to participate in this endless wonder we can only surrender to with grace and trust of being such as all life has done and shall do in the continuing birth, growth and death mantras heard throughout the universe as a singular prayer - the wholly AUM from which even nothingness arose in a sacramental acceptance of ONE, sensing godliness of unity as a delicate dance in a hypnotic swirl of life alive for living, knowing, understanding and becoming the ultimate mystery that comforts with bliss.

Picture of the Week:
A Once Church Abandoned

Image
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
behind these walls
through these windows
once kneeled parishioners
reverently asking their god
through heartfelt prayers
for love, understanding,
forgiveness, safety, health,
wealth, a place in his heaven
after they leave this life
and now within these walls
a once church abandoned
quietly in meditative posture
with those voices ricocheting
throughout in silent search
for those answers they so
kindly asked and prayed for
ahh... man

AUM- nipotent
AUM- niscient
AUM- nipresent.

Love the stream. Love the image (echo?) of the ricocheting voices in the empty church, the drifting prayers.... Cool.

It is funny how the sound of a diesel motor can reverberate through a body like the mystic sylable.

Thanks for the stream Cecil.
And the picture. 8)
I wonder what will happen to the bell?

Random thought:

I can't remember the last time I heard a church bell toll. I don't even think churches have them anymore.

I can't remember the last time I heard a church bell toll. I don't even think churches have them anymore.

I think they went electric... a recording of a bell... nobody wants to be a bell ringer anymore, I reckon... I'd like to have all them bells that nobody wants to mess around with anymore... make a neat display not to mention the sound if played in unison.

I don't believe that church had a bell... it's an old timer in the general neighborhood and I never remember hearing any bells ringing. But it could have and I was out of distance. ??

Thanks Mark, thx truck for stoppin' by... hope you found the silence between those 228 words. i did.

Ten four on the tape recordings. The military is using them too. No more buglers. Just a boom box that is shaped like a bugle ---the bugler presses a button. He holds it just like he is playing it. A very moving ceremony at funerals

I don't know why that bothers me anymore.



Sorry I thought I saw a bell in the belfry.

I keep bats in my mine

Speaking of
mammalian decadence
I may be the least decadent mammal on studio eight.

That is if Nietzsche was right.
