ZEN AND FINDING LOVE HOW TO DISCERN THE MONKEY BRAIN OF MEN
Chapter one.
Preface:
Love Herding
In the pasture of this world
I endlessly push aside my deep soul instinct
Encountering myriad obstacle I push aside the common sense
In search of true love
.
Following my own rivers,
lost upon the chaotic mind voices and fantasy
I seek the distant mountain of love,
My strength…

Once it was rediculous to believe we could control and reduce atomic weapons. Then we even got a restiction and internationally law against anti-personel mines ( land mines). Hopefully Clusterbombs will be the next. (I´ll put out a link to a petition later).
But we are intelligent. We are humans. Isn´t it more than just kind of weird that we should AT ALL produce weapons with the purpose to kill each other? Is that compasssion, is that intelligent? We are in 2009…

This is amazing.
More and more
things are enfolding
I know deep inside,
the divine light is working.
This is amazing.
More and more,
paths are opening
at the right time, in the right place
This is amazing.
More and more,
I feel increasingly guided
I have a feeling,
That eternal light inside of me
has been lighted
In fact it has been glowing
all these years
It's been glowing,
without me… Continue

dear katie,
have you realised the self?
love, g
Dearest G,
No one can realize the self. And what self would that be? No one exists or can exist to realize the self without defining the self that it realized, or the self that has realized the “it” that it believes itself to be. The I-know mind that would say, “Yes, I have realized the self” is in that moment stuck in its limitedness yet again.
Look at these statements, angel, look closely, be with them in…

Dear Katie,
I have been watching the two candidates telling the American people about how they are more qualified than the other. I know they are both telling lies. And that makes me angry.
What happened to the truth?
How do you decide? How can you tell if what they're saying is true? The media isn't much help either. They seem biased.
I'm so sick of this charade, I'm thinking about not voting at all. What can I do to clear my mind? How can I use The…

Yeah...generally its a matter of vibes. A matter of frequencies. The energies of peace carry peaceful ideas. The energies of fear carry fearful ideas. But a fearful vibe can be transformed into peace by simply introducing a Loving thought. There's a proverb in the bible that goes... 'One shall chase a thousand...two shall put ten thousand to flight'. Its like the power of one good thought can chase a thousand 'so called bad' thoughts. But two can put Ten thousand to flight. Or two people with…

Dear MyPeace.TV Community
As many of you know, I recently posted a Video blog/question for Peace, and I want to take a moment to thank all of you who've watched it and shared your inspiring thoughts about it. It's been less than a week and according to YouTube, this video has already been viewed more than 650 times! My question in this video is "If we use all forms of Media (TV, Internet, Radio, Print, Everything) then what is our potential to Strengthen Humanity's Collective…

This is an arrticle I love and filed away. My previous blog reminded me about it (might be the other way round - karmic cause and effect) and I thought I take it out to share. Hope it mean something to you.
A Story to Live By (By Ann Wells – Los Angeles Times
My brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister’s bureau and lifted out a tissue-wrapped package.
“This,” he said, “is not a slip. This is lingerie.”
He discarded the tissue and…

Dear friends, sister and Mother-in-law,
I received this and it is very unlike me to do chain mail. But, I see that this is a different kind of chain letter. It is one that push us in a corner to think hard about those who really did touched our life (That is if you don't cheat on it), or those we care about. If not, at least it is a very beautiful blessing for us to share with people we love, people we resonate with.
I want to take this chance to tell you all that you…

"Our shrinking "global village" is evolving into a multi-racial, multi-cultural and multi-religious society. Indeed, we are witnessing the emergence of a global consciousness - an increasing number of people are coming to see themselves as members of one family in an interdependent universe. So it is an idea whose time has come to have a World Unity Day. Congratulation for coming with this noble initiative. Let us also focus on Golden Rule as one practical way for a better…

Mysterious...
Mischievous...
Miraculous...
So many words of confusing meanings coagulating to become one
Exasperating even the strongest of lungs
A triathlete gasps for air; An olympian swimmer out of breath; Air looking for air
Happiness...
Hurtfulness...
Honesty...
Listen to the echos as it fills the void of the open air gasping for air
Words become language; Language become mutterings
Mutterings don't make…

My eyes are open shut
Seeing reality without meaning
Following life as it goes streaming
Carried off to distant unknown lands
Oblivious to what is happening
I feel the rise and fall of my breath
My focus centered to that life-bearing rhythm
Eyes open sewn shut while I stand
Noticing me standing I'm not with the stream
I'm free from this social trance
Finally making my first real steps
I gather everyone around me while I…

"The thing about the guru in the West is that he represents an alien principle, namely, that you don’t follow your own path, you follow a given path. And that’s totally contrary to the Western spirit! Our spirituality is of the individual quest, individual realization--authenticity in your own life out of your own center. "
As someone who has chosen to have a "Guru" for almost 40 years of my life, this statement by Joseph Cambell, the great educator and author of The Power of Myth is…
