Tantra, Chakras, Kundalini & the Big Bang...
When you run after your thoughts, you are like a dog chasing a stick: every time a stick is thrown, you run after it. Instead, be like a lion who, rather than chasing after the stick, turns to face the thrower. One only throws a stick at a lion once. Milarepa “Just as it is known t hat an image of one's face is seen d epending on a mirror b ut does not really exist as a face, s o the conception of "I" exist d ependent on mind and body, b ut like the image of a face t he "I" does not at all exist as its own reality." Nagarjuna "Thanks to impermanence, everything is possible. Nagarjuna
I remember those of the Great Generation I called friend: Ken, who froze his feet at
ReplyDeleteBastogne: Bob, who carried the scars and malaria from Guadalcanal: Kenny, whose Nat
Guard job landed him in New Guinea and the hell from Buna to Moratai: Donny's dad, who
still lies on Iwo Jima; Duke, the gentle quiet guy who traversed Guadalcanal with
Carlson's Raiders; Bill, who hauled a BAR from Bouganville to the Phillipines; Stu,
paratrooper and point man 11th Airborne, Philipines; and tall thin Phil, who was never
quite at ease after liberating Dachau. I miss them. The country misses them.
Great tribute BB... thanks for posting.
