fool’s gold
This blogging shit is weird yet fantastic. I feel like I’m participating in some sort of evolving group mind that came together through some sort of strangely meaningful synchronicity.
In a lot of ways it represents a validation of something I talk about with my shrink a lot - the need to spread information, penetrate and be penetrated, exchange, cross-fertilize.
Its like I came upon some sort of field of morphic resonance - some alive and dancing field living information that has survived and been transmitted over thousands of years through some sort of covert and completely coincidental baton-passing club.
Maybe this info is something that doesn’t even recognize or acknowledge time or individual persons - it spreads where and how it wills.
(2) Jesus said: He who seeks, let him not cease seeking until: finds; and when he finds he will be troubled, and if he is troubled, he will be amazed, and he will reign over the All.
(3) Jesus said: If those who lead you say unto you: Behold, the Kingdom is in heaven, then the birds of the heaven will be before you. If they say unto you: It is in the sea, then the fish will be before you. But the Kingdom is within you, and it is outside of you. When you know yourselves, then shall you be known, and you shall know that you are the sons of the living Father. But if ye do not know yourselves, then you are in poverty, and you are poverty.
(4) Jesus said: The man aged in his days will not hesitate ask a little child of seven days about the place of life, and he shall live.For there are many first who shall be last, and they shall become a single one.
When you are real with people sometimes it is worth the risk. You might learn something you really needed to learn. Maybe we’re all students in the same invisible college - already recognizing one another too.
“Oh Auntie Em, you were there! And you too, Toto, etc.”
I had that feeling once when I came out of a two-day ecstasy trip, years and years ago, when I first moved to SF. I guess that would be another story. THEME: something to do with recognizing other people as fellow travellers or searchers maybe who have found a particularly pleasant shortcut and are enjoying walking together for a bit.
I sat with my friends on a roof in a circle and could see and feel a fire - the invisible fire we were all sitting around. Half of these people I had known for less than a week. We discussed going to the store to get cigarettes and a wet $20 became paper in my hands. I understood that in my sober state I would once again see it as somethingthat held value but in my un-occluded state I recognized it as a symbol, something that was parasitic on my consciouness. Normally I was the victim of a hypnotic trick whereby I assigned value to it, and made it more important than people. Now it just felt like a cheap trinket - fool’s gold - worthless. It wasn’t so important; the idea of saying “I buy you fly” seemed laughable. Buy what? So what. That fire is amazing.
