How is it a sack of gold is given more weight than sand?


* * * *

Such is the fate drawn.


* * * *

What makes your universe any more real than a caterpillar’s?


* * * *

What the f*** for!?


* * * *

There is something to be said for not saying too much.


* * * *

Indeed, something will always happen in the labyrinth of mind.


* * * *

Now is as good a time as any to end it.


* * * *

What is it you truly own? What is it that you truly have more than temporary temporal use?


* * * *

Legal is not getting caught.


* * * *

Half-ass measures get half-ass results.


* * * *

How can you forget everything but by giving over to the awareness of the one and only moment.


* * * *

Madness hath wrought it own design.


* * * *

Oblique transparency is the transparency that is not.


* * * *

Where is the point of reference without a body?


* * * *

Yet another dream born of quantum dust.


* * * *

What is death but the end of an imaginary state; what is birth but its beginning.


* * * *

Yet another day of pain and suffering underway.


* * * *

Such is the nature of the dream that the awareness of now passes into the perception of then.


* * * *

You might pick up some shiny bauble today, but will it have the same sheen tomorrow?


* * * *

Everyone has their own cross to bear; you might aid another, but your own needs its time.


* * * *

There is nothing to figure out, there is nothing to do, there is nothing to be.


* * * *

What passion, what thought, of any kind, can ever touch the ever-present moment?


* * * *

Attention belongs to the moment.


* * * *

Of things that matter, there are many; of things that do not, there are far, far more.


* * * *

It is one thing to talk about being the way, the truth, the life; quite another to be it.


* * * *

It was all a hoax, a dream, an illusion, from moment one.


* * * *

Pretty strange thing being alive.


* * * *

Poor you.


* * * *

Finally, a good rest.


* * * *

How little it all matters.


* * * *

Cards, cards, cards, everyone playing whatever card suits their cause.


* * * *

More pathetic by the day.


* * * *

What a web of conspiracy this garden orb hath wrought.


* * * *

Are you sure your sense of time is the same as anyone else's?


* * * *

What is the herd up to today?


* * * *

Do you seek out pain, or it, you?


* * * *

Details, fucking details.


* * * *

At what point did life become a countdown?


* * * *

No, it is not a conspiracy.


* * * *

Love, who needs it?


* * * *

Where’s God when you need him?


* * * *

Rest assured, Mother Nature does not give one iota of a hoot what you believe.


* * * *

What good are details to people who will not listen to them?


* * * *

Consciousness is a function of awareness.


* * * *

Which is more arrogant, to realize you are that which is god, or believing you are not?


* * * *

A still mind, a mind given over to awareness, is a timeless mindless mind.


* * * *

One day, death will be the final solution.


* * * *

And they died, too.


* * * *

You are far more vast than imagination can allow.


* * * *

Sometimes you get offed quick; sometimes it is a slow and painful burn.


* * * *

The challenge of growing old is staying young.


* * * *

Toast the moon.


* * * *

Do not misperceive what you imagine your Self to be with what you truly are.


* * * *

What a sweet elixir, revenge.


* * * *

Better luck next time.


* * * *

How many more unnatural selections will Mother Nature allow.


* * * *

Un-impinged by any thought, you are.


* * * *

Jesus unplugged.


* * * *

The limited shelf life is daily more limited.


* * * *

The inny-outy thing is a given; gender roles, however, are a state of mind.


* * * *

And the unquenchable axis of greed and fear and hate ruled.


* * * *

If the day has turned against you, there is no dishonor withdrawing from the field.


* * * *

The insatiable hunger, how it burns.


* * * *

Expand your vision of god to include everything infinitesimal to infinite, including your Self.


* * * *

Underestimation is the worst thing you can give any problem.


* * * *

So much effort for something so effortless.


* * * *

Do you deal with the way you want things to be, or the way they are?


* * * *

Amazing what a bastion for ignorance the world has become.


* * * *

Every day a new normal.


* * * *

All history, as scientifically as it might be sorted, boils down to scholarly speculation.


* * * *

Natural selection, quantum selection.


* * * *

Everyone a judge.


* * * *

The end of the line is never far off.


* * * *

Sticks and stones, swords and spears, bullets and bombs, do not choose their targets.


* * * *

In the door, out the door, who knows how many.


* * * *

What’s your slant?


* * * *

Who-what-where-when-why-how is the life given no continuity?


* * * *

Every form has a history, yet where is its beginning, where is its end?


* * * *

What story, what narrative, what chronical is ever truly real?


* * * *

God is just another lie.


* * * *

The art of speculation is a game of smoke and mirrors.


* * * *

What else have you ever been but solitary witness to an inexplicable mystery?


* * * *

You buy cheap, you buy two or three times.


* * * *

And suddenly … another adventure, project, game show, whatever … done.


* * * *

Sweet oblivion, grand oblivion, immaculate oblivion.


* * * *

All perceptions of existence are but a mirage of the quantum mind.


* * * *

Never assume anybody else is bound by your limitations.


* * * *

In the groove.


* * * *

Self-pity is a debilitating state of mind; it serves no pragmatic function.


* * * *

How pollsters and researchers do lover their statistical foreplay.


* * * *

What is anyone’s fate but the result of the character the mystery has played.


* * * *

Suicide is meeting the Reaper half-way.


* * * *

There it is.


* * * *

For your art, you do suffer.


* * * *

Anything goes.


* * * *

The point of old age is realizing how absurdly mundane it has always been.


* * * *

You cannot save someone from themselves; you cannot save someone from their fate.


* * * *

May as well ask why live.


* * * *

A leader can only lead where followers will follow.


* * * *

There are no Christs, there are no Buddhas; only middlemen and followers and circus tents.


* * * *

What religions call heaven is the pseudo version.


* * * *

Light is required, sound is required; taste and smell and touch are luxuries.


* * * *

Everybody wants a piece of our wallets, we want it all for free, and a vast no-man's land between.


* * * *

If no moment is distinguishable from another, where’s the mystery?


* * * *

Yet another inevitability of technology.


* * * *

What can you recall of even a moment ago but the vaguest perception?


* * * *

At the indivisible quantum level, what could possibly differentiate one moment from another?


* * * *

You are the quantum matrix; the quantum matrix is you.


* * * *

None of it will matter when the Reaper shows up for the harvest.


* * * *

Dead while living.


* * * *

Never real but that imagination deigns it so.


* * * *

Yet another time capsized.


* * * *

And what great difference do you believe you have really made in this cosmic swirl?


* * * *

Emotion is an unfathomable abyss.


* * * *

One life to live.


* * * *

Closed fist, open hand; closed mind, open mind.


* * * *

Sometimes just a nibble is enough.


* * * *

The endgame is about paying the consequences of the beginning and middle games.


* * * *

Flow like water.


* * * *

Throwing in the towel is always an option.


* * * *

It is not what you do as much as it is what you be.


* * * *

Seeking signs from the heavens usually gets the seeker whatever they are capable of discerning.


* * * *

There it is.


* * * *

Hard to do what does not call you.


* * * *

Yet another torturous endgame.


* * * *

Chances are it does not really matter, no matter the assertions otherwise.


* * * *

And one day you die; very inconvenient.


* * * *

All of the above.


* * * *

You are an eye of the mystery; what need to believe?


* * * *

How would this universe, your universe, exist without you to witness it?


* * * *

Pandering to fear and absurdity again, are we?


* * * *

Original Sin? Or Original Lie?


* * * *

What would Jesus do? Be anywhere but here saving us, obviously.


* * * *

Most answers, if there is one, are usually lingering about somewhere.


* * * *

Feel the crosshairs.


* * * *

We are all kings and queens, heroes and villains, angels and demons, unto our own universe.


* * * *

Curious that rationality has so lost its way.


* * * *

Being in the moment requires no belief; being in the moment is not capable of belief.


* * * *

So, you think that is some sort of normal, eh?


* * * *

Dogma is the original sin.


* * * *

Talking heads and dittoheads share the commonality of an eerie absurdities.


* * * *

It begins, it ends, every singular moment, again and again.


* * * *

All those numbers that do not mean diddly-squat today, will be even more diddly-squat tomorrow.


* * * *

All that vanity swirling around in your head, and for what, really?


* * * *

Consciousness is the creator of space and time, a quantum dimension born of imagination.


* * * *

So many seek until they find a new game of charades that is but another lie of consciousness.


* * * *

What is to surrender but a dream born of attachment to imaginary notion.


* * * *

A master of nothing travels no path and leaves no trail.


* * * *

Any beginning is always an end; any end, a beginning.


* * * *

What different world it was not so long ago.


* * * *

One moment, if you will.


* * * *

The real test of any captain is when the ship is floundering.


* * * *

Awareness does not care diddly-squat whether or not you give it even one iota of attention.


* * * *

The blame game is rarely played by those who are without sin.


* * * *

Does it all count for something? Only in imagination.


* * * *

All that accumulation, what do you need, really?


* * * *

Getting older is rather annoying.


* * * *

Revenge is one of the greater engines of history, but does not hold a candle to greed.


* * * *

Every man is a pharaoh, and if at all possible, leaves behind a garage filled with treasure.


* * * *

What don’t you desperately need now?


* * * *

The life you hoped for … planned for … even expected … well, good luck with that.


* * * *

Tap into the awareness as you would dive into a river, or a plug a lamp into a socket.


* * * *

The mini-death of sleep is good practice for the real thing, and just as easy but for the dying part.


* * * *

Revenge is a two-way thoroughfare.


* * * *

In the timeless, indelible awareness of the one-and-only, ever-present moment, nothing exists.


* * * *

The dream, the imagination, will always draw you back if you allow it.


* * * *

Ignorance is bliss until it runs into an iceberg.


* * * *

Why give credence to what does not match your own observation, your own experience?


* * * *

Who is not hero of their own of their own universe, of their own window of time?


* * * *

A world replete with self-absorbed bottom-feeders


* * * *

A new tack, a new leg, to the dream.


* * * *

It all means nothing but what imagination concocts.


* * * *

What’s you addiction?


* * * *

You cannot find what is not there to find.


* * * *

So much entitlement, so much distraction, so easily, so quickly, upended by plagues and wars.


* * * *

Live in whatever ignorance you will, the mystery of awareness equally abides all dreams.


* * * *

Meaning and purpose are the spice of imagination.


* * * *

What’s your obsession?


* * * *

The mundane is … well … mundane.


* * * *

The joy of god, the sorrow of god, are but imaginary states born of the dream of time.


* * * *

Longing for what was, hoping for what will be, are the suffering in which imagination dwells.


* * * *

You are awareness, the eternal moment, creator and creation, there is no other.


* * * *

All but a dream based on all the attachments to the mortal frame.


* * * *

With but a glance, a cosmos is created.


* * * *

Precedent is a constant player in any future-past.


* * * *

So convenient to have god and devil; praise one, blame the other.


* * * *

In the vagueness of memory, all things are possible.


* * * *

There is no knowing the truth of history; it is all the speculation of storytellers.


* * * *

There you are, playing out your own little charade.


* * * *

The man who suffers is still caught in the web of time, the web of mind.


* * * *

Do you find it, or it, you?


* * * *

Yet another window of vanity.


* * * *

What history does anyone care about most but their own?


* * * *

Yes, you are special, but not in the way you think.


* * * *

How easy it is to use desire and fear, carrot and stick, to tame the sheeple.


* * * *

You are the center of you imaginary universe, nothing more, nothing less, nothing but.


* * * *

The indefinable that is always being defined.


* * * *

In surrender, grace.


* * * *

What need to conquer a world you have created?


* * * *

Gonna get a lot more wicked before any horizon shows up.


* * * *

The tortures of existence can be many and all too often.


* * * *

Consciousness is but a player.


* * * *

What makes any graven image any more graven than any other graven idea?


* * * *

Yet another day in the mystery theater.


* * * *

Everyone is crazy, even the so-called normal people.


* * * *

It is not out there; it is closer than close can be.


* * * *

It is the same mystery born of awareness that it has ever been, will every be.


* * * *

All idolatry is founded upon the vanity of the idolater.


* * * *

The world, the cosmos, exist only in consciousness; they are nothing in the ever-present moment.


* * * *

Everyone has a story, none are easy, many are harsher than others.


* * * *

The human paradigm is an impromptu passion play founded upon imaginary notion..


* * * *

What is it about agony and ecstasy that keeps you coming back from the nirvana of oblivion?


* * * *

Human vanity, leave home without it.


* * * *

That which is never born never dies.


* * * *

Just because you can breed does not mean you must or should.


* * * *

All life is of the same origin, but relatively few ever discern it clearly enough to be freed by it.


* * * *

The lies that time writes are many and often.


* * * *

The names and face change, but the paradigm remains the same.


* * * *

This our globalized modern world is but a house of cards waiting for breezes 'n trembles.


* * * *

The new normal is unfolding its wings.


* * * *

What will you endure before it is over?


* * * *

As awareness witnesses it.


* * * *

Hindsight 2020.


* * * *

There is always something nibbling on you or your pocketbook.


* * * *

Hell is getting a wee bit crowded.


* * * *

The funny thing about tomorrow is that it always shows up today.


* * * *

This is not a test.


* * * *

Diminishing daily.


* * * *

The past is now, the future is now, the now is now.


* * * *

A new level of pathetic.


* * * *

How’s your myth going?


* * * *

The progress that is not.


* * * *

You  pass through time, and time passes through you.


* * * *

You call that progress!?


* * * *

What is Creation but a wave heading toward its own shore.


* * * *

The road to power and fame and fortune is to be a character that goes where no one else dares.


* * * *

You spin your life as if it is real, but all anyone hears is a story translated through their own.


* * * *

What a monstrously cruel species humans can be.


* * * *

The house of cards is coming down.


* * * *

The new normal.


* * * *

Another day, same old story.


* * * *

Spiritual pride is an arrogance of its own.


* * * *

Analogue or digital, clocks ticking away the time, but the moment ever the same.


* * * *

Be cautious about believing you know things you cannot.


* * * *

Each is center stage in their universe, and a reflection in yours.


* * * *

Vanity is a shallow venue, greed its propellant, Mammon its idol.


* * * *

Face it, your entire existence has been a fabrication of imagination; awareness, cloaked by vanity.


* * * *

When you are pure awareness, what else is there to be?


* * * *

Different time, same moment.


* * * *

Holism is easily lost in the fog of details.


* * * *

Less is not necessarily better; more is not always, either.


* * * *

True science has no bounds.


* * * *

So much history we can barely if ever know.


* * * *

Life is a death sentence.


* * * *

You, assumption.


* * * *

Oh, insidious dust.


* * * *

Do not rely on hope.


* * * *

For his art s/he did suffer.


* * * *

If you cannot handle it anymore, maybe it is time to die.


* * * *

Admit what you see!


* * * *

Read the sign, get in line.


* * * *

The subtlety! The subtlety!


* * * *

Self-pity is a sure road to ruin.


* * * *

All universes are different; all universes are the same.


* * * *

Pay no attention to anyone behind any veil when it comes to discerning the truth for your Self.


* * * *

If you fear death, are you sure you know what it is to live?


* * * *

The way is neither shallow nor deep, neither near nor far, neither here nor there.


* * * *

There is no turning back the tide; there is no fooling death.


* * * *

In less than an instant, this moment too shall be a memory subject to imaginary recollection.


* * * *

You want to know God? Look within, discern the awareness peering out.


* * * *

Life is about adaptation to circumstance.


* * * *

What is done cannot be undone, only celebrated, endured, or forgotten.


* * * *

The craving for more is the bane of contentment.


* * * *

The absolute is without yes or no, this or that; without duality in any way, shape, or form.


* * * *

Worms will eat the flesh; wind will blow the ashes.


* * * *

How can there be different dimensions when all appearances, all attributes, are but illusion?


* * * *

Best to read the instructions, or at least glance at them.


* * * *

Effort cannot unlock the door.


* * * *

The sage’s work is never done because it never started.


* * * *

Ripple, wave, tsunami, what difference?


* * * *

Boon or bane, praise or derision, any life plays many stages.


* * * *

For the greedy, nothing is ever enough; for the sage, nothing is ever enough.


* * * *

Why allow others to convince you what you see is not true?


* * * *

That awareness which timelessly peers out is never undone.


* * * *

Live or die? Why should, how could awareness care?


* * * *

So many different ways to indulge the sensory mind.


* * * *

Jesus will save you for ten percent.


* * * *

Too hot, too cold, the mind’s discontent is not easily waylaid.


* * * *

Life dissipates and is forgotten, assuming it was even remembered in the first place.


* * * *

What a fraud you are when you pose it real.


* * * *

What is legal is what is not caught.


* * * *

The sage earns no special protection or merit badge for his wise counsel.


* * * *

Clinging to a dream, what torture.


* * * *

Awareness takes on all forms.


* * * *

What is offered herein is priceless beyond all value.


* * * *

Pandemics are just Mother Nature's way to try to eradicate the real cancer on this planet.


* * * *

Imagine a world, a universe, in which you have never been known.


* * * *

He who dies with the biggest pile of gold gets a seat closest to Mammon.


* * * *

Shit is shit, no matter the shade.


* * * *

You are what you think; you are not what you think.


* * * *

You need not do something over and over to know how it tastes.


* * * *

There is no problem that death cannot solve.


* * * *

Fate throws many curves.


* * * *

Whether a mind reared in civilization can ever let it go completely is a “Needs Research” question.


* * * *

After almost a lifetime, you finally figured it out.


* * * *

Best to be cautious about pretending you really know something.


* * * *

And what do you believe you have accomplished that will matter at all to eternity?


* * * *

You are always at church if you choose to be.


* * * *

Sticks and stones can break your bones, and words are the wind behind them.


* * * *

The man who suffers is the one who clings to mind and body.


* * * *

Pretending you exist again, eh?


* * * *

If you are truly about love, then do it agape, or do not bother at all.


* * * *

He with the most imagination suffers most.


* * * *

It is the mystery that is born again and again and again, not the identity.


* * * *

Death is the end to experiencing, to wondering, to knowing, to speculating.


* * * *

Imagination’s reign will be but a relatively short one.


* * * *

If you truly believed in God and Heaven, would you not be seeking to get there quickly?


* * * *

Feel sorry for the body, not your Self; you are not it, it is not you.


* * * *

Life as we know it is a lot of moments strung together by imagination.


* * * *

The winds of consciousness, of imagination, blow through the sky of timeless awareness.


* * * *

Why trust anyone whose primary directive is getting into your wallet?


* * * *

​You are only as free as you allow others to be.​


* * * *

How would you like it if what you just did to another happened to you?


* * * *

What a wacko world; why bother with it?


* * * *

The challenge is for doing not to become becoming.


* * * *

Every moment its own universe.


* * * *

What a tragedy to spend one’s life seeking the approval of others.


* * * *

Who loves who? Who hates who?


* * * *

Cha-ching!


* * * *

​Rehashing your story daily.


* * * *

Power and fame and fortune do not draw the selfless.


* * * *

Unredeemable.


* * * *

Do what amuses you.


* * * *

Meaning and purpose are lies; embrace the futility.


* * * *

Forgive yourself if you can.


* * * *

Every time has its own little window of absurdity.​


* * * *

​Seems like a lot of people still believe that world exists.​


* * * *

Good luck with that.


* * * *

A sperm fertilized an egg, and you were given a life sentence.


* * * *

The awareness that let its story go.


* * * *

Life has always been more fair for those who have the gold to back it up.


* * * *

The cosmos that vanity built.


* * * *

Let us count the ways; let us uncount the ways.


* * * *

Just like the hunter waiting for the squirrel to pop its head out.


* * * *

Now erase the story.


* * * *

A state of watchfulness.


* * * *

Change your nature-nurture conditioned programming? Good luck with that.


* * * *

They will get over it.


* * * *

Hopefully, the Reaper does not mind being laughed at.


* * * *

Self-pity is a sure road to perdition


* * * *

Steady as she goes.


* * * *

Alimentary canals surrounded by prattle and notion.


* * * *

Empty as she goes.


* * * *

What is any life but a set of moments strung together by imagination.


* * * *

Everything you hold near and dear will be gone with the last breath.


* * * *

Most are content with a life of distraction.


* * * *

Nothing means nothing.


* * * *

All that fat is going to make the burning pyre scorching hot.


* * * *

Death is starting all over again.


* * * *

Every choice leads to new consequences.


* * * *

Rest assured you fear is always being capitalized on.


* * * *

Small minds can be made by too little intelligence, and too much, as well.


* * * *

Awareness is true Self; imagined self is but imagined self.


* * * *

All stories are just stories, none greater, none lesser, really.


* * * *

Vanity, vanity, all is vanity, and that is vanity, too.


* * * *

Holding onto your existence, what for?


* * * *

All as predictable as the breath you are about to take.


* * * *

So this is where Manifest Destiny gets you.


* * * *

Trial and error is the brick and mortar of all creation.


* * * *

And what, exactly, is  the point of that measurement?


* * * *

There are worse things than death.


* * * *

Where are you when the inner narration ceases?


* * * *

What busy-busy minds the ambitious have.


* * * *

Adulation, who needs it?


* * * *

Where to perch when all the perches are gone.


* * * *

Let go all the stories, including anonymous.


* * * *

The unconditioned mind is as free as it gets.


* * * *

Fair or foul, the Fates have you in their grip.


* * * *

If you go this way …


* * * *

That world is long gone.


* * * *

Did it slip your mind, or the mind slip it?


* * * *

The beginning of the story, the middle of the story, the end of the story, all the same.


* * * *

This is what it takes to wake up.


* * * *

All this inquiry, surely, it is time to erase the story.


* * * *

All that fat is going to make for an inferno on the burning pyre.


* * * *

Imagination is creator and creation.


* * * *

Fabrication that it is, knowledge will always see itself out.


* * * *

The mind without a story is a free mind.


* * * *

What is history but storytellers telling of storymakers.


* * * *

It is impossible for awareness to exist.


* * * *

Same pattern, different day.


* * * *

A window of entitlement coming to a close.


* * * *

Resist the herd.


* * * *

Fear rules.


* * * *

The full cup has no more room for fresh brew.


* * * *

Batten down the hatches.


* * * *

Oblivion or bust.


* * * *

Yet another wakeup call with a built-in snooze alarm.


* * * *

How many ways are there to shoot ourselves over and over in both feet?


* * * *

What is a scene but the other enhanced by the many.


* * * *

What is it to you?


* * * *

The body is but the regalia of a dream


* * * *

Every story has a beginning; every story has an ending.


* * * *

What is your excuse?


* * * *

Sometimes there are bigger waves than you can handle.


* * * *

What a different world is created by hysteria.


* * * *

Even the sages can run afoul of pride.


* * * *

Awareness is witness; imagination, the dreamer; quantum, the theater.


* * * *

Imagination can only usurp awareness for as long as awareness allows.


* * * *

What is philosophy but therapy for people whose wit cannot be easily contained.


* * * *

The dream carries on and on until death do you part.


* * * *

Is not your mind kingdom enough?


* * * *

Be your own best friend.


* * * *

We all play our little program for as long as breath allows.


* * * *
