I am sure that I am not the only person greatly displeased about the bombing and declaration of war. I am writing this mainly because even though I sought to accept what would happen, I am finding it hard not to be angry and terribly sad. </div><div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp</div> <div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&nbspMy peers are exchanging pictures of missiles with coca cola bottle cap tips, spoof songs about killing Saddam, and edited photos of Bush wearing the ring of power (from lord of the rings). They do so perhaps in the attempt to laugh at a situation that, if taken seriously, might bring them to tears. Perhaps not. I can't join in on the laughter, because I cannot shake the anger i feel that our nation has somehow justified the death of many for something which seems, to me, to be a child's power struggle. I anticipate a few replies about national security, terrorism, etc... (Terrorism is NOT a defined evil that can be extinguished by a show of force). But today I feel that as a country we are one big bully. Without war we would not know peace? Perhaps (perhaps not!!!), but its a sorrowful time, when many young people offer their lives for an empty cause. Saddam is a monster, he tortures people to enforce his rule? What causes a &ampquotmonster&quotlike him, and do his atrocities make a whole country into evil people deserving of this? How much do our technological war-toys hurt our planet? </div><div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp</div> <div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&nbspI hoped beyond anything that it would not come to this. But now that it has, I wonder if maybe I'm taking this ride too seriously. Maybe its me who has the problem, because I can't look at Bush's face without feeling bitterness. I can't see a patriotic bumper sticker without feeling a little resentment. I can't think of a gun without wishing to dismantle part of our civilization in the hopes we'll forget about such dangerous and final, cold and impersonal weapons. And I know there is no one to blame. There's part of me that feels this and part of me that watches like its a movie. </div><div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp</div> <div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&nbspThough this does not have anything directly to do with tantra, i bring it up because the dymanics involved are a part of the daily life of most, albeit on an exaggerated scale. And even if you are lucky enough to not experience any ego wars in your domestic or work life, this is something I feel will affect us all. Some trumpet sounder in my head sees this as the end.</div> <BR> <div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&nbspThere is anger and sometimes violence in my heart, but how did our world get like this...?!?!?!?!?! I hope I will awaken from this hellish nightmare soon. I imagine every tear that I cry is a liquid forgiveness bathing an eye that could be our world. But I am running out of tears.</div> <BR> <div>- being-self-absorbed, wearing-an-angry-face, zen</div> <BR> <BR> <BR> <div><B>Quote</B></div> <div>&quotIf we dare the darkness, we find the light. &nbspWhen human reasoning completely fails to entice answers, they come. &nbspWe cannot force our-selves to think clearly, but we can become aware that we are not in clarity. &nbspConsciousness of our confusion then leads to a new kind of clearness in which there is no more doubt. &nbspIt should not bother us in the slightest to suspect that there might be something wrong with the way we think. &nbspTo the contrary, it should excite us, for we are on the doorstep to fantastic discoveries.&ampquot</div> <div>&nbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp- the daily guru</div> <BR> <BR> <BR> <div><B><I>a brief note... &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp3/9/03</I></B></div> <div>&quotThe truth is always simple. It always has been. There is no relation between religion and God, other than the concepts which men have created in an attempt to understand that which was beyond understanding. Through-out time man has sought to understand God, to directly learn of an existence beyond the physical life. In this search for understanding, many misconceptions came into being, misconceptions which have been perpetuated and passed down through the ages. There is no harm in misperceptions, because eventually, they come to light and truth prevails. There is harm however, in the form of human suffering, which is continued to this day because of misperceptions about God.</div> <BR> <div>The simplicity of truth is not easily recognizable to most people. To those who seek to know God through external rituals and religions practices, the search has become hollow. Did you ever wonder why so many seek and so few find? Could it be they are looking in the wrong place? Could it be they have been following the paths of men, following some external example, rather than going directly to the source? God has never been far away. God has never required worship, ritual, mantras, austerities, or praise. These are the things of men. These are the external structures set down by generations past who viewed God as separate, as an unattainable goal reserved for a chosen few.</div> <BR> <div>The spiritual practices of the past have been useful to a degree, they had a time and a place or they would never have come into existence. But the time for these practices has come to an end. To continue to follow the practices of times past is to remain in times past. God is ever unfolding... ever revealing. God is manifesting in and through creation in each and every moment. God is making itself known directly to those who are pure enough to receive. To those who do not look to the ways of men to know God, God appears, is revealed, and becomes tangible. This is the Direct Path, the path which is set forth within each person, a blueprint to follow, simplicity revealed through love and devotion to God alone, molding itself through each person in exquisite, simple perfection.</div> <BR> <div>To follow the Direct Path to God requires dedication, pure intent and a deep longing to return to truth and simplicity. God is only revealed to those who purely seek, for love&acutes sake alone, the highest form of truth available to man. For those who seek to know God directly and who are ready to give up the ways of men, there is the Direct Path, a reminder of what has been forgotten, the divine blueprint of creation within each one of us.</div> <BR> <div>So much as been written about the path to God, so many traditions, each originating from a different religion, culture or spiritual group, each providing a means by which the seeker can attain the highest realization. &nbspEach of these paths has had one thing in common...someone had first traveled it themselves, thus paving the way for others. As they shared their practices and realizations, others followed, and religion was born. &nbspThrough many years and many interpretations, the original messages have become muddled and misunderstood. These misunderstandings remain today and are perpetuated through well-meaning devotees of the world's religions.</div> <BR> <div>What was once pure has become impure through the misinterpretations of men. The path to God, the most simple truth of existence, has become confusing and artificial. Mankind has focused its attention on the teachings of religion, which are no longer the pure manifested transmission of the God-realized men who first offered the teachings. The first step then, on the Direct Path is to let go of the indoctrinations of religious teachings.</div> <BR> <div>To do this requires much faith and courage. Those who are pure of heart will have no doubt already recognized the untruths within the religious teachings and to let them go is simply a matter of taking responsibility for one&acutes own experiences and following one&acutes own heart. This is the first and most absolute requirement on the Direct Path, the ability to follow one&acutes own heart, even if doing so means you will be judged wrong by those around you. To be willing to stand alone is necessary on the Direct Path. There is no other way to release yourself from the ways of the world which steadfastly pull on you through perceived expectation, judgment, obligation and fear. There must be a knowing within oneself that the experience of God-realization is meant for everyone and is thereby, fully attainable by everyone. One must release any previous beliefs that one may hold as to the &ampquotdifficulty&quotor &ampquotrarity&quotof reaching this state and allow a new human experience to be born through them.</div> <BR> <div>To facilitate our return home, an energy is born within us. This energy is known as Kundalini and it is the link by which we are transformed back into our own Divinity. Following the Divine blueprint, we are led through purification of man&acutes lower consciousness into higher states of awareness where we encounter Divine Truths which reveal what the mystics have always known...that God is within, in a very real and tangible way.&ampquot</div> <BR> <div>- Solomae Sananda</div> <div><U><A HREF="http://www.livingspiritfoundation.org/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.livingspiritfoundation.org/">Living Spirit Foundation</A></U></div> <BR> <BR> <BR> <div><B><I>a brief note... &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp2/17/03</I></B></div> <div>Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)</div> <BR> <div>Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of 99 </div><div>If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be </div><div>it.
