      From: slider@anashram.com              made it into the sweet spot wrote...              > what do we have to look       > forward to? a stupid ass place in 'heaven' or a dumb       > ass place in 'hell'? oh boy sign me up, make me a       > believer. well do you feel lucky punkos ?              ### - no need to be quite so cynical about it heh, it is what it is, and       is the place where everyone starts-off from for example...              and what it 'is' (right now anyway) is the eye of the needle, i.e., the       place where there's no perceptual left and no right, no good & no bad, no       right/wrong, no heaven/hell etc etc etc...) ALL those things were just in       our head: imagined realities, just like vinny suggested they are! :)              iow: one wakes up one day to find yourself half-way across Niagara Falls,       on a tightrope with no fuckin' safety net heh... (so don't be lookin' down       lol)              and yet perfectly balanced... such is our position (in life) whether we       ever realise it or not!              everything else is just plain bs that we made up ourselves and 'learned'       to relate to ;)              put a big 'X' on this spot to mark it anyway, coz chances are you'll drift       back off to sleep again in a minute and turn back into the asshole you       (and everyone else) normally are whenever you/they slip into believing in       either heaven or hell (or the gop & the demos coz it's all the same thing       ultimately) as being something real...              if you would 'remain' on this spot, however, you'd eventually notice       another trail almost completely hidden/overgrown from disuse... a much       older road... one the intellectual branch of the hippies discovered       (re-discovered actually coz it's very old) and were courageous enough to       explore... many of them dropping-out at that point to go live in the wilds       of canada and/or whatever/wherever...              some, however, didn't leave, opting to remain within society hoping to try       and work with it from within to try improve it some...              (in cc's terms, for example, this marks the spot where the human form       flees but keeps returning until it eventually flees forever... thus an       increasing sense of objectivity or 'detachment' becomes the overall mood       of this spot, so stick with it... you've found the midway point)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
