According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.

― Plato, The Symposium

Seaside, Florida. I wish I could have a place like this by the beach. I could live here forever. Not thinking thoughts that makes my heart sad right now.

 

Taken by someone else.

I am longing for mountain streams...

התחלה של סדרונת

longing for the faraway ...

I was passionate,

filled with longing,

I searched

far and wide.

 

But the day

that the Truthful One

found me,

I was at home.

 

-Lalla Ded

  

remembering you

endless longing goes on

and as it was before

into where memories are tears

though i regret purchasing a ticket and supporting a system that locks up living creatures, i wanted access to taking these photographs. these pictures display my contemplations on animal captivity. i'm no a animal rights activist, but i still hope the pictures stimulate thought.

I found this momentary painting on one of the fences of a building site on the Aura river, Turku, Finland. The disagreement between the reality around the fence (freezing cold, snow) and the painting struck me.

"Three passions have governed my life:

The longings for love, the search for knowledge,

And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].

 

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.

In the union of love I have seen

In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision

Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.

 

With equal passion I have sought knowledge.

I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].

I have wished to know why the stars shine.

 

Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,

But always pity brought me back to earth;

Cries of pain reverberated in my heart

Of children in famine, of victims tortured

And of old people left helpless.

I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,

And I too suffer.

 

This has been my life; I found it worth living."

Bertrand Russell

zen meditation is impossible
