Winded From Effort
Lost in a world where shadows rule, can there be such a thing as 'enlightenment'? All exists for our own selfish pleasure and yet the real becomes illusionary in appearance. Where is the salvation so eagerly surmised? Where is the role of the Wondrous One, hesitantly awaited in it's role of destruction? Here and now, the nothing exists like no other. The rapture of bliss is ever pe... (Mindless Wanderings)
Wheel Of Life
I am the pliable self. Whatever you wish for me to be, I will become that. I blend in easily and become a part of the landscape with no conscious effort. Each individual sees me as they wish to see me. I am what I should be, no more and no less. Capturing attention, I become the measure by which experience comes to be known. I delight in other's realizations and find comfort in ano... (Mindless Wanderings)
What Are You Doing Tonight?
Speaking, we hear the call, but upon closer inspection we realize it is nothing but the echoes of our own thoughts, reverberating in our empty space. Appearances, as always, are as deceiving as we are. Within the empty space, we purchase all that we can in an effort to fill the void. Not only do we fill the empty space, but we fill it many times over unleashing a balance due in tim... (Mindless Wanderings)
There Is Life Even In The Dead
Fulfilling one's duties and responsibilities, what happens next? Where is it that we will be taken to next? Have we reached the pinnacle of our desires or do we continue to create new and interesting twists and turns in the drama of life. Taking stock of our inventory, we always seems to come up short. There always seems to be something missing in which we lust for. Becoming our de... (Mindless Wanderings)
Taking Root
A hope, a dream, a far away place, where are the souls in which the turning of life take refuge. From where does the communication so eagerly sought, find a new home in which to blossom and bear the fruit of understanding. Alone in the mist of ignorance, the appearance takes form and is exposed by the of knowledge. The time of thought remain steadfast in it's place at the door ste... (Mindless Wanderings)
Seeking Flotational Devices
In the time of dreamers, vistas unfold and as the onrushing future makes it's way through us, we gaze in wonder at the recognition of ourselves onstage. Separately, we are a joy to behold, if only to ourselves. Conjuring a destiny, we seek fullfillment and yearn to break free of nothing. Opposition enables the solidity of now to make itself known. Faced with our perception, either ... (Mindless Wanderings)
Points Of Power
There is the quietness of emptiness, a peacefullness that creates a tranquility of no-effort. Within that effortless embodiment, nothing moves, nothing rejoices, no demands are given or received. There is no bliss, there is no pain. All that exists is a quiet solitude that is all existence. Pick a time and place and it becomes real. Feel an emotion and it manifests itself. Create a...

Life Is Worth Living
Life is said to be worth living, but isn't that what Life is all about anyway? Confounding simplicity creates the hardships which we gleefully throw at ourselves each and every day. The only hardship that exists is the effort in which we place our entire existence within. The effort of not-knowing. Believe it or not, this requires a great deal of effort to keep in place. Is it any... (Mindless Wanderings)
Grinding Corn And Being Somewhere Else
Exerting effort, we tend to strive with the expectation of overcoming. What audacity! Expectations are the attractions which the Magician uses to capture interest and, of course, attention. It's what the show is really all about. We expect that if we hold true to some course of action, our expectations will bear fruit. We expect that results are there to be had, if for no other...

Enslaving Ourselves To Freedom
Freedom exists for the benefit of those who have become enslaved by their own wishes. "Ask and ye shall receive." is a timeless axiomatic way of Life. Enslavement partakes of entrapment in terms of definition and purpose. There is no where to go, so what better way to create "the way" than to lie about it? The only discovery that Man will ever make is the discovery of thought. Thin... (Chance-llor)
Carried Away
In interest we rise and in boredom we fall. Our minds are like silly putty, capturing and embracing all that our senses spy and when change repeats itself, when lack of new, interesting, stimulus becomes vacated, our minds return to it's sloth-like behavior of ill-repute. Lazy and sullen, we come to learn that in order to serve our Master well we must seek out new life, new hopes a... (Mindless Wanderings)
Are You Having A Good Day?
"Who Am I?" Ask the question and determine the response received. If the echo comes as "Me" or "I", then the response mechanism being employed is none other than the imagination of the mind. Stillness of a response indicates something else. That something else is the Void of existence. In the case of the 'I' or 'Me' response, following the thought pattern and tracing the originatio...
