Just the other day, I saw death. It was a simple affair really, but it has left me a tad angry. Like what's next after conquering death? The answer is 'live'. And this is where my anger rises. I keep forgetting the 'winning formula' and now and then I find myself in the world of the dead.

I was having lunch in a kiosk when one customer complained to the waiter why he had delayed the delivery of 'cabbage saucer'. The waiter gave his apologies, and the customer replied by saying, 'You'll make amends in the evening. I must come'. That's when it occurred to me that if I specialized in killing people with such certainties about time and the future, I'd mostly escape detection. I'd be a mystery. That is, I became death itself.

And to think of why some people are/have been afraid of death! To me, death simply relies on the false belief that energy forms don't transform, and that even these transformation rates depend on optimal values and how energy systems conform to these values.

So how to live? The answer is too simple for my liking. It's like I have been 'institutionalized' in death and slavery that I shun my freedom.


...these are some of the things that make me wonder if "personal mastery" is worth. You master creation, you become a companion to your true self, and then what? Isn't it a struggle in itself. But in its absence, what would you be? In the multitude I guess. I don't know which is the lesser evil. That's why you can't believe its that simple, how to live. You dislike it even. My quest continues...

ps...my observation is informed by ignorance.


I have also been looking at my ignorance. And how my observations have been driven by ignorance. Like, I haven't known how to keep at optimal values at all times. Though now I see how burial sites are usually the first religious symbols among our ancestors. Or how religion is used to promote life.


... ignorance to what? I can only guess "to self remembering". Anyway, I will let your type converse. I want to remain on "my" path, the lonesome path of the living, where roses and thorns abide.

ps...the living and the dead could share a path...so I make no assumptions smile


And I, to 'the stony path'. Not mine at all. Others have trod it before, many will come.

Along it I build some temporary shelter, to rest my limbs, or pass the night.

And can I disregard you, if, we chance to meet?

I beseech thee then, that thine stones be ground
that thine passage may be calm
and when the tire is done
on it, you shall trod again
for the end never ends.
my regard? disregard granted.

I find much treasure in your words,
and though disregard is granted
my love is too deep,
to let the moment pass.

And bear it lightly,
that I bear a sword.

So be it
that your sword is embraced.
And in your moment,
your moment of self, I pray thee finds numbness
in the treasure of your torment.
so let it be
that thy sword is drawn,
that blood is desired.
For even then, the living shall live.
