Here and Now, Being/Time-goodbye/hello

About Me



Enter the Big Mind

I am a psychedelic war lord victim gone far into zenbuddhism.

OUR DOJO IN SWEDEN

I am a proud father of two beautyful children and worrying about the future for them in this troubled times on this glorious planet...

I am a lucky one and I want you to be happy too.

"The art of dying" is the best way to live...



Spend a lot of time in zazen... Teaching... love to be with my woman and kids, working with my hands, music, sports and intimate relation with wild life.

Dont care too much about "the world of dust" but enough to keep my economy straight.

Words that struck my space deep : A gentle breeze, pinetrees. -The full moon. MySpace Profile Photo Editor

My Interests



..Zen, Nature, Working with my hands, music and art. Beware of darkness...Opening up the gates to the cascading waterfalls. Listen

I'd like to meet:



People who are sincerely aspiring to enter the way beyond the clouds.

Who dont stop at the point of personal satisfaction but who continues to shine in the darkness of ignorance.

Who want to give Light, who can give a helping hand forgetting their own labour. Who are truly human beings.

People who are wild enough to risk it all, who can forget themselves. People who belongs to the gentle wind howlin like a hurricane. People who are more than people. People of the one eye.

People who are not moved by the rich and famous.

Spiritual people who can go beyond the idea of God all kind of spiritual people who can go beyond the idea of being religious and just be the universe itself, in fact; one. People of the one mind. regardless of faith, caste, gender, race, age, etc...

Music:


Music who is connected, true communication. I practice finger picking guitar, try to involve all the fingers in differents rhytms and patterns... In the end there is no music---that is best---silence...I prefer the most. nature- birds, wind, waves

Movies:

Shakespeare dramas.

Television:

Sopranos ......
Elvis Presley was the first Rock..n roller who blew the god damned thing off with a good shot from his revolver. I will always admire him for that. This is one of the reasons he was called The King.

Books:

Dont read so much anymore, mind is not as it used to be...SHO BO GEN ZO by Dogen...

"Den Nordiska Eddan" Nordic mythology.

"Ã…strand opublicerade" Hans Ã…strand.

"The practice of the wild" by Gary Snyder

John Scheriff Curtis "The vanishing race".

I read Jim Morrisson poetry "The Lords and the new creatures" which I find very strange, indeed- maybe a prophesy...deep insight into the psyche of man.

Read all of Shohaku Okamuras translation of zen texts.

Heroes:

The old laughin lady

My Blog
