Every time a person tries to make another person fit into their reality, a little piece of their soul dies.
“Under the thinning fog the surf curled and creamed, almost without sound, like a thought trying to form inself on the edge of consciousness.”
― Raymond Chandler

There is only one religion,
the religion of love.
There is only one race,
the race of humanity.
There is only one language,
the language of the heart.
IF...
By Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:.
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man!

Kalimera my dear friends!
..."Well it's
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One"...
One

Inséré dans un ancien cirque glaciaire entouré par une belle forêt de sapins, le lac des Corbeaux est un lac glaciaire de 9 hectares situé à 887 mètres d'altitude sur la commune de La Bresse, dans les Vosges.
Le nom du lac n'est pas lié à la présence de corbeaux. Une première hypothèse suggère que le nom est dû à la présence des sapins sombres qui le bordent et donnent à son eau une couleur noire comme celle des corbeaux. Ce raisonnement semble trop indirect et une deuxième hypothèse plus simple parait plus plausible. Le terme « corbeaux » serait une déformation du nom « courbées » faisant référence aux courbes du relief très pentu entourant le lac. Le nom « lac des Courbées » aurait dérivé vers « lac des Corbeaux ».
In the darkest place
What was once named consciousness
I'm a miniature
I'm a sketch forfeiting outlines
Irrelevant entity to sanity
A hive for nonsense
For multiple selves
Resonating, but never compromising
Ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis:
Heilsbronner Münsterführung bei Kerzenschein
- Candlelight tour at the Heilsbronn Cathedral
they cannot be separated, dissected, synthesized, poisoned with lab cultures
all living things live within other living things, feed on them, interact with each other
consciousness is the force that glue it all together
humans are in no way different, superior, smarter
let alone those who think they can possess and control everything

Happy Christmas to all!
Happy Christmas means enjoying real happiness coming from within Christ consciousness. All experience of happiness comes from within, for the source of happiness lies in our self which is our divine self Atman or Christ consciousness being the source of happiness. So all the happiness every being enjoys and experiences comes from within.
Someone may say nice words to us or do nice things to us or give us presents and this activity of the others makes us happy ….. but this happiness comes from inside us for it opens our spiritual heart and lets the love or happiness inherent in it to flow outwards so our body senses can feel it.
This happiness did not came from any where else but from our divine self, for our divine self is the source of happiness and only from it, it can flow outwards.
Our self lies inside our spiritual heart, actually it is our spiritual heart and so love and happiness can flow only from our heart. That is why we say “heart to heart communion” for only between hearts we can have communion of love and joy or bliss.
If we feel sad and experience unhappiness the reason is that we have closed our spiritual heart and the inherent flow of joy that is our self cannot pass and flow through a closed heart. Our false ego being offended closes the door of our spiritual heart and we feel cold and abandoned. No one else has caused this distress we feel, we are the ones that caused this distress by closing the door of our heart so the bliss of Atma, of our self, can not reach our outer body senses. The cause of our unhappiness is not due to others but of our ego self that distance itself from the real self the Atman which sits in our spiritual heart. We feel distress and unhappiness only when we distance away from our divine self and identify with our false ego which is the creation of illusion and ignorance.
So the wise say we are the embodiments of supreme bliss and love, only if you are immersed in ignorance you experience unhappiness and distress. Ignorance is your real enemy for only ignorance is causing you unhappiness. The more the ignorance you have, the more the unhappiness you experience. A rich man is a man who experiences all the time joy, a poor man is the one who experiences distress, fear and agony most of the time with very few intervals of real happiness.
So celebrating the birth of Christ means we celebrate the birth of Christ consciousness inside us by letting the bliss of the Atman to pour to our body senses. To open our hearts and let the bliss of the self to saturate our being!
So we wish you a Happy Christmas means we wish you to open your heart by overcoming ego and ignorance and experience the unlimited joy that lies inside you, inside your Atman, inside your real self!

wishing you all a new year filled with joy, peace, creativity
and a golden stream of beauty in your consciousness

Be quiet in your mind, quiet in your senses and also quiet in your body. Then, when all these are quiet, don't do anything. In that state truth will reveal itself to you.

A little series, today, of images created from the same shot which was of a collage I put together of different, multi coloured Squashes in a box. I had fun doing these, I hope you like them. The original collage is at the end of the series.
「意識流」(stream of consciousness)原本是心理學的術語，是由美國心理學家威廉·詹姆斯發表《論內省心理學所忽略的幾個問題》一文提出之觀點，他認為人類的思維活動像是切不開、斬不斷的流水，意識如流水般連綿不斷，是一種連續不間斷的流程，不是片段的連接。這是「意識流」概念在心理學上第一次被正式提出，並影響了後世文學、藝術等領域的創作。
但其實與「意識流」相似的思想早已存在佛教經典中，如《佛說仁王般若波羅蜜經》、《往生論註》、《摩訶僧祇律》、《華嚴探玄記》等，形容心識的剎那生滅，快速如流水般相續不斷的。《成唯識論》：「阿賴耶識為斷、為常？非斷、非常，以恆轉故。恆，謂此識無始時來，一類、相續，常無間斷…..。轉，謂此識無始時來，念念生滅前後變異，因滅果生，非常、一故…..。恆，言遮斷，轉表非常，猶如瀑流，因果法爾。…..」形容心識活動如瀑布水流般剎那生滅，不常不斷，相似相續。

Albert Einstein's quantum philosophy and the mystic-spiritual Christ consciousness have the same Source.
Following an inner guidance—which let me my free will—I try to combine both with the help of Love to make them One :)

"It has to do with a programmer who creates a whole collection of artificial virtual personalities in a virtual world, but he doesn't let them know that they're virtual. So they argue among themselves as to whether there exists a creator, and if so whether they owe him any gratitude for their existence.

The consciousness below thee is ever-expanding
in different ways from those known to thee.
Aye, it, though in space-time below thee,
is ever growing in ways that are different from
those that were part of the ways of thine own.
For know that it grows as a result of thy growth
but not in the same way that thou didst grow.
The growth that thou had and have in the present
have brought into being a cause and effect.
No consciousness follows the path of those before it,
else all would be repetition and vain.
Each consciousness in the cycle it exists in
follows its own path to the ultimate goal.
Each plays its part in the Plan of the Cosmos.
Each plays its part in the ultimate end.
The farther the cycle, the greater its
knowledge and ability to blend the Law of the whole.
