I have no hand. I have no body. Bodies aren’t real. Bodies are dreams.

A story is like water
that you heat for your bath.It takes messages between the fire
and your skin. It lets them meet,
and it cleans you!Very few can sit down
in the middle of the fire itself
like a salamander or Abraham.
We need intermediaries.A feeling of fullness comes,
but usually it takes some bread
to bring it.Beauty surrounds us,
but usually we need to be walking
in a garden to know it.The body itself is a screen
to shield and partially reveal
the light that’s blazing
inside your presence.Water, stories, the body,
all the things we do, are mediums
that hide and show what’s hidden.Study them,
and enjoy being washed
with a secret we sometimes know,
and then not.Posted by Kitt -
There isn’t a way things should be. There’s just what happens and what we do.

Is there any “me” at all, or do my thoughts just DREAM of me? -
Referencing Leonard Cohen’s song “A Crack in Everything”. He says “that’s how the light gets in.” Various books seem to have cracks in them. And I don’t necessarily think that the writers are on the Advaita bandwagon. I suspect that it’s kind of that “hero with a thousand faces” thing. The waves of the Ocean of Singularity move across the entire ocean, not just on a solitary beach.
I hate reading books that tell me what to think or how to be. But I do get a kick out of it when someone sneaks something in on me.
Stephen King’s Dark Tower series is seriously cracked.
Today, one of the characters got hit in the face with the knowledge that he is a character in another book. And it is tearing him up. “It’s not a story. It’s not a story, it’s my life!”
Ha!
