thank you B...for the birthday wishes
.. so B... . who are you really?..speak more of Thee and pray who are YOU? .. sorry i meant to write the "blue blue yonder." ..why would i question youR take on life? .why would i deny your understanding and your learning of life?.. .. why are you striking me with a hammer if i do not see it your way?. ... is THIS the fundamentalist in you.. there isa little bit of fascism in every human heart... ... i do not understand what you believe the "blue blue yonder" and the "never never never land" mean to you...IF anything? my take is: ..the endlessness of the universe, the timeless of time. the no return of this body as it is ...when you B depart from your mortal coil the body as it is now/ here. .where will you go:..?????. ."the never never land"....the "blue blue yonder." ..what did you have in mind..? .meaning where does your imagination lead you? what is time? you speak of billions of years in who's language do you speak? human time is timeless the universe is timeless... there is no time in one's mind's eye there is only one universe and that universe is you without you what can you possible see? think? or feel? in the never never land? merle Happy birthday Merle. My inital college degrees are Geology and Geophysics. In geology we speak of hundreds of millions of years, just as Joe might speak in terms of billions or million millions of years and even those chunks of time are but an instant in eternity. Life on earth began 600 million years ago, the reign of the dinosaurs lasted less that 150 million years. Humanity's earliest ancestors didn't show up until less that 5 million years ago. The last Ice Age ended 12,000 years ago. The first domesticated animals, 10,000 years ago. The first evidence of writing 4,000 years ago. Each human life lasts but 100 years, that's 0.00000017th the span of all life, 0.000000005th the span of the age of the known universe. We live on a planet which seems significant yet 1,300,000 Earths could fit inside of our Sun and that Sun is only a medium sized star in a universe of uncountable stars (billions and billions according to Carl Sagan). From the furthest known reaches of known space our sun could not be seen. This is my perspective regarding Zen. First the concept of Infinite Time and Space. Huge, beyond imaging. An infinite Infinity of Infinities is still nothing. It is no time or space at all. Given that infinite space and infinite time and given the demonstrated size and length of our physical existence and percieving myself as that point of being within the greater context of time and space. Who am I? You are no closer to that "blue blue younger....the never never land", beyond the beyond, than you ever were or ever will be. Cogito Ergo Sum or in my own words I know that I am experiencing something. You can deny what I am saying but if I see you I will hit you with a hammer and then let's see if what I say is not so. B Find what makes your heart sing…and do it! ________________________________ From: Merle Lester <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, September 23, 2012 4:57:28 AM Subject: Re: [Zen] the green dragon jesus edgar...i was thinking which dragon was edgar..and it was red my answer long before i read this...at 8:00pm ..what am i psychic or what?... and i am think grey dragon for KG..... ???????? which dragon am i .?..i know but who else knows.. . and folks happy birthday for me..today.. 23rd sept. another year older and closer to the blue blue younger ....the never never land. .. enjoy your day.. one of the dragons!
