You and I are essentially infinite choice-makers. In every moment of our existence, we are in that field of all possibilities where we have access to an infinity of choices.

A teacher cannot give you the truth
The truth is already in you
You only need to open yourself –
body, mind and heart-
so that his or her teachings
will penetrate your own seeds
of understanding and enlightenment
If you let the words enter you,
the soil and the seeds
will do the rest of the work

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours."

When consciousness becomes clear and the senses are detached from matter, one experiences fearlessness within the material body and detachment from the material mind. You should understand this situation to be the predominance of the mode of goodness, in which one has the opportunity to realize Me.

Just think of the trees: they let the birds perch and fly, with no intention to call them when they come and no longing for their return when they fly away. If people's hearts can be like the trees, they will not be off the Way

It’s very important to hone intuition and logical razors so that reasonable questions can be asked. … This nobody ever criticizing anybody else brings the intellectual enterprise and the refinement of human knowledge to a screeching halt. The way in which the intellectual enterprise moves forward is by being critiqued, analyzed, subjected to tests.

The most precious gift
we can offer others is our Presence.
When mindfulness embraces those we love,
they will bloom like flowers.

    Beautiful.
    You heard what happened to René Descartes, didn't you? He walked into his favorite tavern and the innkeeper said, "We're out of wine. Would you like ale instead?" Descartes replied, "I think not!" and vanished instantly.

    "Everything Is Broken"

    Broken lines broken strings
    Broken threads broken springs
    Broken idols broken heads
    People sleeping in broken beds
    Ain't no use jiving
    Ain't no use joking
    Everything is broken.

    Broken bottles broken plates
    Broken switches broken gates
    Broken dishes broken parts
    Streets are filled with broken hearts
    Broken words never meant to be spoken
    Everything is broken.

    Seem like every time you stop and turn around
    Something else just hit the ground
    Broken cutters broken saws
    Broken buckles broken laws
    Broken bodies broken bones
    Broken voices on broken phones
    Take a deep breath feel like you're chokin'
    Everything is broken.

    Everytime you leave and go off someplace
    Things fall to pieces in my face
    Broken hands on broken ploughs
    Broken treaties broken vows
    Broken pipes broken tools
    People bending broken rules
    Hound dog howling bullfrog croaking
    Everything is broken.
    -----------------------------...
    Bob Dylan - Band Of The Hand Lyrics

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    Down these streets the fools rule
    There's no freedom or self respect,
    A knife's point or a trip to the joint
    Is about all you can expect.

    They kill people here who stand up for their rights,
    The system's just too damned corrupt

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    Down these streets the fools rule
    There's no freedom or self respect,
    A knife's point or a trip to the joint
    Is about all you can expect.

    They kill people here who stand up for their rights,
    The system's just too damned corrupt
    It's always the same, the name of the game
    Is who do you know higher up.

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    The blacks and the whites,
    The idiotic, the exotic,
    Wealth is a filthy rag
    So erotic so unpatriotic
    So wrapped up in the American flag.

    Witchcraft scum exploiting the dumb,
    Turning children into punks and slaves
    Whose heroes and healers are rich dope dealers
    Who should be put in their graves.

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    Listen to me Mr. Pussyman
    This might be your last night in a bed so soft
    We're not pimps on the make, politicians on the take,
    You can't pay us off.

    We're gonna blow up your home of Voodoo
    And watch it burn without any regret
    We got the power we're the new government,
    You just don't know it yet.

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    For all of my brothers from Vietnam
    And my uncles from World War II,
    I'd like to say that it's countdown time now
    We gonna do what the law should do.

    And for you pretty baby,
    I know you've seen it all.
    I know your story is too painful to share.
    One day though you'll be talking in your sleep
    And when you do, I wanna be there.

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!
    It's hell time man! It's hell time man!

    David Bowie - Life On Mars Lyrics

    It's a god-awful small affair
    To the girl with the mousy hair
    But her mummy is yelling "No"
    And her daddy has told her to go
    But her friend is nowhere to be seen
    Now she walks through her sunken dream
    To the seat with the clearest view
    And she's hooked to the silver screen
    But the film is a saddening bore
    For she's lived it ten times or more
    She could spit in the eyes of fools
    As they ask her to focus on

    Sailors fighting in the dance hall
    Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
    It's the freakiest show
    Take a look at the Lawman
    Beating up the wrong guy
    Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
    He's in the best selling show
    Is there life on Mars?

    It's on Amerika's tortured brow
    That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
    Now the workers have struck for fame
    Cause Lennon's on sale again
    See the mice in their million hordes
    From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
    Rule Britannia is out of bounds
    To my mother, my dog, and clowns
    But the film is a saddening bore
    Cause I wrote it ten times or more
    It's about to be writ again
    As I ask you to focus on

    Sailors fighting in the dance hall
    Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
    It's the freakiest show
    Take a look at the Lawman
    Beating up the wrong guy
    Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
    He's in the best selling show
    Is there life on Mars?

    We are what we think. We are everything we wrap our brains around. We use our minds to mold our world. Our tongues are like the rudder of a ship. Where our words steer us is where we go - lost at sea, crashing into a reef, or into safe harbor. Our own words make us happy or sad, as unshakable as your own shadow. How can you find happiness if everything tiny thing in the world down to the minutia bugs the hell out of you? Your greatest enemy can't phase you in the slightest near as much as your own head, brain & mind if you're not careful what you put into it. But once you know yourself, control yourself & understand why you do the things you do, no one can lead you, advise you & guide you better, not even dear old mom & dad!

    It's unethical not to know. It's unethical not to think. It's unethical not to love. It's unethical not to live an impassioned life. It's unethical not to attain greatness. It's unethical to succumb to the fear of envy & the conspiracy of mediocrity. It's unethical not to self-bestow knowledge/genius. It's unethical not to be the 1st monkey, or the 100th monkey - or the 100th human. Sometimes a man is faced with the right thing to do & the wrong thing to do & he only misses by one. If 6 was 9...

    Not only is this a good philosophy to live by... it has also been proven by science. By simply existing, we create the world around us. Without us, the universe would not exist. At least in the state we observe it to be in.

    Things like this, and all the effort you put into it, make Sodahead a much more interesting place. Otherwise, we're faced with the same 3 questions, restated over and over ad nauseum.

    I'm not even the spiritual type-- I just find it all inspiring.
