You got me thinking about obsession and cumpulsion and the difference there of. more on that later.
I think the movie thing we were talking about on the film board has somethisng to do with Zen, I mean your Zen mind and my scattered brains.
Thinking about poems that have changed my lives even a little.
Anne Sexton, I have heard college professors say she is a terrible poet, she has helped me through some hard times.

I came across this today -
Man follows the Earth
Earth follows Heaven
Heaven follows the TAO
TAO follows what is natural
... Lao Tsu
Nature. About as honest as they come.
Nature can't lie, deceive or cheat
Nature is unable to do anything but be Natural
There is no better teacher to learn from.

Hu man nature
any way you slice or dice it
it is natural too
Human so human
I been trying to read a book called The Art of Happiness, a transcription more or less of a serries of conversations between an amerikan psychiatrist and the 14th Dalai Lama.
"Do not objectify sensory data."
That bit is about all that has stayed with me so far. I have not picked it up in months. I have a book mark in it at 212
The Practice of Tong-Len
Another at page 275
HONESTY AS AN ANTIDOTE TO LOW SELF-ESTEEM OR INFLATED SELF-CONFIDENCE.
Another bookmark at page 141
RE: Samsara
Bookmark at page 35
RE: Epicurus and Freud on Pleasure
Teacher is a noble calling.
It is a blessing for a man to fine even one noble teacher in a life time.

It sounds as if this book is doing little to make you any happier.I been trying to read a book called The Art of Happiness
"Do not objectify sensory data."
Frank Lee, I'd part with it if that's all I could remember about it.

It was imprinted into my memory when I first heard the best teachers are the one's still learning. It's one of our hu'man qualities that help us survive - learning. As soon as we dismiss that need, we're pretty much left stupid floundering in doubt. Hell of a way to exist.
(("I don't know...." --- "I don't know..." --- "I don't know..."))
... and then the lights went out... bip!... darkness didn't just creep in on four silent paws. nope. it blanketed the man about as quickly as i could say the expression 'wow!'... it was that fast... so fast i instinctively knew the poor bastard never saw it coming. that's the good thing that came out of it - painless. if i ever quit wantin' to know, i just wanna go about that fast. who wouldn't?

Frank Lee. I remember him. I always liked that song he wrote about Muhamed's radio.
"don't it make you want to rock and roll all night long."
I been fortunate in my life to meet teachers who loved to teach and loved their subject mattter. I will never forget my 12th grade math teacher Miss Reese, my history teack
her Mr Waskow, My Classic's professor Dr McCall. I wish I could remember my French instructor. In one semester he had us reading camus.
I met a few teachers through the disenbodied poets society, Jesus poets and Buddha Poets and Quacker[sic um] nutjobs through some sort of mojo magic mystical quantum connection
<center>
That sounds like a cool gravestone Cecil
I like what it says on Red Emma's grave stone a lot also.</center>
And I have met a few teachers their books
ANd on studio eight and litkicks I met poet teachers
I wrote a homage to revolutionrabbit, but it could have been for you, or constantine or saw or mingo or or or or or and on and on judih hesterpryne doreen westie, whimsical deb, perezoso, mnaz, nazz, rain70, ~k, smilegirl, abstroint, frontal abstraction, illuminara, mousey, barry, joel, marksman45 foolish pater wireman on and on jota
a lot of teachers a lot words
do you remember words she asked
and do you remember when words could kill I thought but did not say.
Best advice I ever got was from Vonnegut
"Listen to the music"

In Egyptian mythology, Hu (ḥw) is the deification of the first word, the word of creation, that Atum was said to have exclaimed upon ejaculating

Depending on where you're at today, Mohammed's Radio gets a lot of interference. Did you know Mohammed entered a cave regularly to meditate? Someone told me that. I believed it.. coming from the source it did.
Meditation... common practice for Siddartha, Jesus and Mohammed, to name but a few seekers to Truth.
Emma left her body at the tender age of 69 in Toronto. You reckon that gravestone picture was taken there? Maybe artguy knows of her burial spot...

I never knew a naturalized citizen could be stripped of her citizenship. She was deported back to Russia for opposing Mr Wilson's war to make the world safe for J. Morgan and Company. In Russia she was pormptly deported again because Lenin did not like her push for freedom of speach.
She travelled the world finally finding refuge in Canada. After she died the US Government relented and let her friends bring her back to her much beloved adopted homeland.
I just liked the song. Muhamed is also a pretty common name. I don't think that song was about the prophet.
What I did not know about Islam till a coupe months ago is that they are also waiting for the messiah to come.

I got a neighbor named Jesus.You can also see some of the time-sensitive grafitti. The two inscriptions read "Emma died for your sins!" and of course, the time-honored slogan "Smash the State!"
Emma Goldman's Grave in Chicago

I'm pretty sure Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Shintoists, Zennists and other left-side belief systems aren't waiting for anything but their own enlightenment.What I did not know about Islam till a coupe months ago is that they are also waiting for the messiah to come.
question for the moment: would you recognize a messiah if you saw one?

Superior is a great lake up north if you're south.No doubt those religions you mention are all superiour to mine.

Thinking about your shrine for Aida
Mohamed's Radio always puts me on a mountain pass in Calfornia at night. San Marcos Pass, where silent woman's daughter was killed in a car wreck. Just a coincidence that song was so popular on the west coast at the time. I used to listen to it when I went over San Marcos Pass on my way from Morro Bay to San Pedro with a load of fresh fish and ice overloaded and brakes smoking, that song was so soothing to me, so pretty. I miss silent woman's slow smile, and her daughter innocent smile.
This is my shrine for Debbie
Silent Woman's daughter
No Shitz Sherlock
When she was a beautiful kid of 14, she had such an older sister jaded tolerant attitude toward her younger sister's Naiveté. When the little one would have a profound insight, as if a piece of her budding nervous system got synapped into maturity. When the little one had her aha moments, Deb would say to her "no shit sherlock."
So now over thirty years since I last saw you, I call out your name.
As if you were still alive.
I used to pass through Santa Barbara a lot, I always thought of calling you. One day I did. Your room mate said you were in Virginia looking for me.
And when I got home to Virginia, jitterbug told me you had been there asking about me.
Fate put you on that fatal mountain pass.
All I got are but, but, buts
If I had not come into your mother's life like a karmic shit storm
You would/coud maybe had a happier longer life.
Yep Nietzsche is right no redemption
And
Kerouac believed that he could redeem himself through his novels.

I always thought
redemption was a given
30 years from anything
we are like clocks struck dumb
a harsh and bitter chord that
sends it's ripple down
tomorrow's spine
we are like her friends
a portrait of enchanted
intentions
past like rivers
hold forever
spellbound

If I was fifty years younger, and like Hilary Clinton, if I knew then what I know now.
I would have read Spinoza. When Einstein was trying to get citizenship some congressman wanted to know if he was an atheist. We don't need no stinking atheists, thank you very much.
Einstein answered the congressman's question by saying he believed in god, he believed in Spinoza's g-d. I bet Osho read Spinoza.
The news in Guadalupe county today:
all the schools are closed in this county because of the swine flu, and I have developed an insatiable hunger for pork.
