My little package of
treasured fears: how much we prefer the fear-filled known to the fear-free unknown. |

Go fishing with your
mind. |

Tyrant ego, centered
here, strengthens with age, blocking more and more one’s access to there. There, with
its seeming sources: 1. Repository
thinking.
2. Resonant thinking: order, creativity.
3. Resonant thinking: chaos, destruction.
We unconsciously participate, constantly.
We praise the "creators" (Mozart), curse the "destroyers" (Hitler),
and puzzle over the "shuttlers" (Nixon). Is it not time to learn how to learn
how to make our participation conscious? |

Which room?
Which window?
Which door? |

The self-aggrandizing we
shall always have with us. Deal with them at your own risk. |

A medium is a message. |
| 94092401 |
Who (or what) is writing
poems to, from, and about this tree-me? |
| 94092401 |
Foolish feats. We pride
ourselves on the results of our pointed acts, unaware of their true sources and true
results. What does the rain know of the flood? |
| 94092403 |
Professional success in
academia is largely a reward for being blind to—or choosing to be blind to—the
beauty of one’s students. |

Then: Vulcanism in art,
science, religion. Dualism, conflict. Not: Neptunism. Immersion in nature. Ambience. |
| 94100901 |
In my 58th year it
finally occurs to me: I should be famous because there are those who love me. |
| 94101901 |
This cursed language: I "am":
not merely an active verb, it is the only active verb. |
| 94101902 |
Meditation: un-reading
readiness. |
| 94103001 |
For all its good,
acculturation, unfettered, leads to paralysis of the mind (Reich). Unaware, the West
resorts to short-term relief (art, science, alcohol, Sunday religion, calisthenics of
various kinds, etc.). |
| 94103002 |
There is much to be said
for the reality hidden beneath the trappings of the East’s various rituals of
ancestor memorialization. The grateful living as well as the grateful dead. |

Semele the seductress. |
| 94112601 |
I am tiptoeing around the
outer precincts of Heaven like an AA member in a ginmill. |
| 94112901 |
The usually silent,
rarely visible audience. Except at intermission. (And, of course, intromission too.) |
| 94112902 |
Children, pressed, leap
toward appearances. Ambition, a childish mis-reading of the world. |
| 94120701 |
The body as emblem and
emissary of nature. Thus to love. |
| 94121201 |
From ice and snow to
water and warmth. |
| 95012501 |
Well-seen, any object is
the door to the self. |
| 95030401 |
Art, like all else,
succeeds to the extent that the acts honors Tao and exalts Teh. |
| 95030402 |
We live in an age that
thinks the work’s title is "Tao Ching." |
