ASKED BY D. // ANSWERS


Is there anything you do, before the Day begins, to set the tone for having a good day? Or do you just jump into it hoping for the best?

I a
al
alw
always
FINISH
my dreams.
THAT IS THE FIRST and the only thing
I need to do for me to have a good day,
unless there is a star falling,
or the Sun is threatening to go,
or somebody calls me. I hate the phone. I'd get rid of the phone
before
I would
throw
my stupid tv out through the window.

But I need the phone
for the Internet.

Anyway.
WHEN I DREAM
(and I dream every time I sleep)
I know I am dreaming [every time]
and I won't let a dream go
until it reached '''''''ITS END'''''''
now
I don't know how I know it's the end
but if I don't get there
my
day
is
ruined.

What is the baggage you are carrying around that keeps you from experiencing life to its fullest? What kind of thoughts hold you back?

TODAY I SAW
for the second time
the last episode
of the RUSSIAN television adaptation of
MASTER AND MARGUERITE

(the novel by Bulgakov)

and it's very well done
and beautiful
AND AS THE MASTER AND HIS LOVER
come back to life
with the help of AZAZEL
and ride on HORSES
to the MOON
and then
further
to
a
house
and a garden

I thought
HOW DIFFICULT
to get rid of that kind of HOPE
that I could die
yet RAISE FROM THE DEAD
and see the stars
reflected
in
the
eyes
of
a
woman
I LOVE.

ME!

ME!

ME!

It's the "ME!" that I can't get rid of.
++++EVEN IF I KNOW
I KNOW
yes I know
that there will always be
a MANLIKE-creature
who will see
the eyes of a favorite WOMAN-being
when
looking at the night.

I can't get rid of myself.
If I could, LIFE WOULD HAVE
quite a different taste.

Have you ever had a moment of clarity, when you saw things were really not the way you perceived them to be? Tell us about it?

YES
when I finally understood
that
the UNIVERSE
is ONE BODY.

ONE BODY
that looks like many
and ONE SOUL
because there isn't room for two
in the ONE UNIverse.

Now, I can't look at a rock
without thinking
that in some dimension
everything MINE
is connected to EVERYTHING THE ROCK'S
and everythings else.

Now I am working
on time.

YESTERDAY
touches TOMORROW.

Was there a random act of kindness in your life today? You gave or received one?

I stood in the street
and read poetry
from William Blake
SILENTLY.

It might not look like it means much
but around here
NOBODY ever seem to read
in the street
yet I saw
many people looking at me
wandering
and I thought
that maybe they have a book at home
that they felt they should go back to.

Also, I saw that some people wanted to ask me
what it was that I was reading
but they were shy (or so it looked like it)
so I will have to do it again tomorrow.

And when they ask me
I will tell them that
rea
ding
is
dan
ge
rous.

Have you had an encounter with God today? Did you learn something new about Him? Those of you who don't believe in God, I understand. Those of us who do, it's a growing knowledge. Tell me

I can't wake up
without
encountering God
sitting on my nose.
Yet He was also in my dreams
which means that every night
He tells me something new.

This morning in my dream
I met with evil-minded people
who asked me if there really were
"super powers" in the real world
and I said yes

--then, I petrified them
and laughed.


What is the cost of your happiness?

If you had one day where you were granted all that you wanted, how would you live it? What would you do?

I
would
say NO
then
feel a little bit
like GOD.

TO
HIM
nothing
is
granted.


What is "the pearl of great price"? How does one go about getting it?

Like
the
best
swimmer
ONE
dives
DEEP
under the waters of the EGO
to find
the
pure
solid
pearl
of
NOTHINGNESS.

Describe the experience of "no mind"? Do you just know about it, or do you experience it?

THE MIND
is the mirror
upon which
the UNIVERSE
reflects itself.

Break the mirror.
NO
MORE
MIND.

yourself, and
your
inside-self.)

THEY SAY that
it's
not easy
but
who are THEY?


If meditation is a vehicle to get you somewhere, where is it taking you?

Meditation
is taking me
to the somewhere
that is nowhere
and that really means:

OUT
OF
MYSELF

and

OUT
OF
HERE.
