"It is no good my sitting here speculating,

building temples, churches, and

getting excited about them."

I feel called out :O

Too much thinking, not enough doing for me. No better time than the present to begin transforming...

A poetic utopian saga of everything that exists, for it exists and remains.. A dance poem of how dancing led to a united aura of world release while the brave attained enlightenment.

Sometimes I just sit in my garden and feel a poem coming on. Then I just sit in my garden and make it my wordless poem.

I was pondering on the exact same subjects these past few days. Enough with the half-aliveness. ☀️

I love this! Although, I would say I’m on a journey to discover more about all religions both for enlightenment and to choose the parts of each that push me and inspire growth. Most of us (too optimistic?) are climbing the mountain? I prefer to utilize the tools offered in various religious practices to ascend. Hope that dissent sound too haughty.

I am a “cafeteria Catholic” striving to be a “cafeteria world religions.” Much to do! Blessings to all.

This is what we're after, moving from always needing to know to live in the not knowing. We are new to the platform, and we're dedicated to this pursuit - aliveness! Thank you for this and all your work, so glad you're here.

Krishnamurti Foundation is having an online retreat this weekend - I’m appreciating having terms defined by long time students - I don’t know how Krishnamurti would feel about it🤣
