To know the past as happening now…<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153To attain this \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcknowingness\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 we can begin with objects and experiences, using them to work back to the knowingness and clarity which they bear. Then, using that clarity, we can SEE ALL EXPERIENCES AS BEING PRESERVED IN A COMMON GROUND IN SUCH A WAY THAT THERE IS NOTHING SEPARATING THEM, one from the other. Our experience of last year and our experience of today both have the same clarity within them, and that clarity shows that they are even more fundamentally linked\u00e2\u20ac\u201dTHE IDEA THAT ONE IS \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcPREVIOUS\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 TO THE OTHER IS INCORRECT. The previous is not previous, the distant is not distant.<\/em>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d

YOUNG SONG
\nby Ken McKeon<\/p>\n

I knew the spells of waterlilies in my neighbor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s pond,
\n I entered the silent passages
\n Of dragonflies,
\n They revealed the secret majesties of god
\n Within their rainbow wings,
\n They stilled my mind,
\n I saw them hovering over
\nThe sun dusted golden waterways,
\n Their concentration was a joy to behold,
\n Through them I knew
\n The multiples of sight,
\n Stillness living,
\n As rare as dusk light,
\nAwareness
\n As translucency,<\/p>\n

Shadow worlds, finally night time ecstasy,
\n The self like stars rolled into
\n As a child\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s shoulder
\n Leverages the earth,
\n And turntables time itself
\n Into a newly found
\n Laddering of light,
\nClimb those starry steps, be there, become
\n The vast coronal multiple,
\n The rhapsodic intertwined display
\n Of flowing life
\n And stillness mind,
\nA child\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s joy
\n In learning how to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
