Yes, you are right. It is too big for any-body.

I think if it were a case of energy contained within a mere body, then it would be an impossibility. But it really isn’t accurate for me to use the phrase, ‘in the body,’ because it is something unchained; an energy uncontrollable in the sense of me doing something with, or to, it.

The one seeking the power cannot handle it, because that power cannot be handled.

That is very nice…

Just honk and dissolve.

DISCLAIMER: Do not jump in front of a car in your search for spiritual enlightenment. Unless you hope for liberation in the final sense of the word.

There was an uncommonly complete dissolution of the person. More typically, there is some process of ending: the idea of me, the heart awakening, then the penetration of everything. Here, you encapsulate it all. The instant version. (laughs) Just honk and dissolve.

Reminds me of when Krishna tells Arjuna in the Gita that if Arjuna were to see Krishna is his total power, he would not be able to physically handle it.

And thanks for the food tip. I will try to remember that if I am ever in Beantown again. I love Thai curry.

You are right; it is not a big deal. But I suppose others will go on, continuing in their attempts to build a structure from a formless nothingness. It doesn’t have to be that way, of course, but it will go on.

At least for now.

Explosive is a good word for that energy. It is not explosive as in out of control or disconcerting. It is not an energy that changes with different situations, because there are no different situations. It might be better to say it is a constant energy and a continual, never-ending situation.

There is also a great grocery store/food court at that same intersection called Super 88. The Thai curry is great.

Your own shoes will fit you far better than mine.

Besides, in your shoes there is hope to find something unparalleled. In mine there is only the ghost of what you already possess.

Be good…

I loved most the first lines: “I continue to carry this complete emptiness wherever I go. It is an odd sensation. But the mind is not devoid of sound; the music is still there.” Yes!

Yes, the intersection of Commonwealth and Brighton. Brings back memories of another time and memories of who I used to be. It is like looking at the life of another person.

What you wrote, makes total sense to me because I recall feeling like that. Actually, whenever I am connected with the love that exists in everything, I still feel like I will explode from sheer joy of the energy.

Life is fluid…so it is wonderful that we grow and move beyond our boundaries. There are sections of my life that I cannot recall and I am at peace with it. For if those moments were of importance, I would be able to remember them.
