Teach us to number our words so that we may become wise.
A good candidate for the seminar on death?
My last words might be (something like), “Fuck yeah!” 🙂
“I am”
“Come on, let’s go!”
“Hallelujah!”

So, was this new to you? Then you ARE (or were) a moron!
Capitalism – Capital-is-mean & mighty
Now I see movies like Social Network & Steve Jobs quite differently… Never forget your Chomsky & Žižek lessons!
Bridge to Nowhere

“DUNBAR.
Before dawn with bridge lit by my car’s headlights.
Heron only stayed for one shot. :- (”
Hmmm… I like sharing images that impress and also inspire.
It’s a bridge from nowhere too…!
Maybe the purpose of a bridge (revelation/spirituality) is not actually to get us from one place to another, but just to afford a place to stand on in the midst of the deluge……
Something like the islets of land (1/4th) on this planet, in the middle of vast oceans (3/4th)
Also notice the reflection of the bridge on the water – that’s religion!
Compare with the metaphorical usage of “the waters” in the Bible
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
So, what percentage of people need to be ashamed?
Buck up, before it’s too late! Time is real.
True beauty & strength go hand-in-hand… Fitness ~ health!

Well, what can I say??!!
Open your eyes wide open, let your jaw drop down,
And just ogle……….
Eerie and awesome ambience, created by the play of light, shadow, perspective and color.

READINGS (Completed)
Theology and Contemporary Critical Theory
http://gen.lib.rus.ec/book/index.php?md5=C69B7775C4DDFBF2266272E0B5083F29
“Theory For Religious Studies” is a must read. But this one is more focused & deep.
I didn’t get a lot of what is being said, but it nonetheless stimulated & stretched me. Well worth reading fully!
Some writers need to be paraphrased & explained twice or thrice before they can be understood by the common man……!
E.g. Foucault >> Ward >> Joseph >> others
Today, the boundaries between theology, religious studies & philosophy have completely broken down, & that’s a very good thing. What an exciting time to be alive!
The city can be beautiful too !

Beautifying by beholding!
Why is a painting more beautiful than a photograph?
Which is more realistic and which is more romantic? Or is that a stupid question?

Take a break, have a picnic/retreat!
Sleep, Sabbath, vacation
Gaze, reflect, wonder
Soak in the atmosphere and carry it back within you

I am…… the pointing finger!
“When the wise man points at the moon, the fool looks at the finger.”
My job is to point (myself & others) to the great wisdom available, through the diverse sources all around & within us.
“Six Feet Under” Season 1 (TV series) review (4/5 – Hit!)
I’m preparing for a seminar on death!
Don’t miss watching the extras in the Six Feet Under torrent download!
Hmmm…. who’s your favorite character? Mine is Nate. Father Fisher is a close contender.
It’s as much about family as it’s about anything else.
All the hot-button issues of life, like homosexuality, family dysfunction, grief, mid-life crisis, adultery, mental illness, religion, morality, etc. are handled better when seen in the severe and unsparing light of death, which brings a cruel simplicity to our common perplexities……
