That is a close description you've given. Familiar, but not quite the familiarity of memory. <em>Discovery</em> might be a good word here, as it implies the unearthing of something already present; it might be covered over or hidden, but it is already there. Thank you, Sara.

In the beginning (and still now) there was only being. I could use no words. This thing can never be explained; it can only be lived. But I am exploring language to see if anything can come of this." Yes, something is conveyed. It feels like a reminder somehow. Not the actual thing, but a reminder of a thing. Some part of me keeps saying, "Oh yes! That sounds familiar." Still haven't remembered quite yet, but my memory is being jogged. I appreciate it. “My initial purpose for this site, was to find a way to use language to convey something.

All I can do is express whatever it is that is here. I can naver say that THIS is the way it is. I can only see what is here, and question everything else. Takuin Thanks, Nur.

Whenever you have time Yes, your languageis conveying that there is knowledge beyond what we know. But more importantly to know or not know is also okay, if that makes sense. That's because you're showing us where you are, and I believe that is beyond mere knowledge. Maybe knowledge can get us that far, but after a point simply knowing is not enough. Your showing us what lies beyond the mind, the self. You're showing us the Now and its great to be a part of this journey. Blessings No problem . Whenever you have time

When one's purpose is in this moment, action is all there is. While there might be an image of the end result, it in no way interferes with one's actions; it is a guide. If something needs to change, then we change it. It is like course correction. It doesn't need to be overly intelligent or too emotional at all. You see that a change needs to be made, and you do it. It is a very mechanical process (the actual attaining of the goal). My initial purpose for this site, was to find a way to use language to convey something. In the beginning (and still now) there was only being. I could use no words. This thing can never be explained; it can only be lived. But I am exploring language to see if anything can come of this. Maybe there is a means of language that can allow others to see there is life beyond the knowledge they possess? That is what I am going to find out. We can talk about things until we are blue in the face, but unless we have been there ourselves, it has no meaning. Thanks for your comments, Alan. Takuin You are right Alan.

Thanks for all of your participation. It is greatly appreciated. I am planning a post or two on relationship. It should be up in a week or so. I am moving to Tokyo on Wednesday, so I am a bit behind on things over here. I will get to it before too long, though. Talk to you soon. Takuin Hi Nur. Thanks for all of your participation. It is greatly appreciated.

I was trying to point out that here, on your site, you put forth your endeavor by the sheer joy of doing it (I assume).Within the action is there motive and goal built into the joyful act? There must be some kind of desired goal or motivation that gets you to put this out there and engage others. I guess maybe you are saying that motivation and goal are swell when they are always present in the enjoyment of this moment.
