I'd like to meet:

[philosophy::ruminations]
There is a community of the spirit.
Join it, and feel the delight
of walking in the noisy street,
and being the noise. Drink all your passion
and be a disgrace. Close both eyes
to see with the other eye. Open your hands,
if you want to be held. Sit down in this circle. Quit acting like a wolf, and feel the shepard's love filling you. At night, your beloved wanders. Don't accept consolations. Close your mouth against food. Taste the lover's mouth in yours. You moan, "She left me." Twenty more will come. Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison when the door is wide open? Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence. Flow down and down in always widening rings of being.

[ satyam | truth ]
I find myself questioning whether truth is a reality; whether truth is a universal, operating force pushing this world towards something infinitely more divine or simply some lofty concept that the world operates with order and in accordance with certain principles. I question this because what is true to me may not necessarily be true to another. Our perspectives shape our truths ... don't they? Perhaps there are some core, universal truths, but I can't know this for certain; I've only experienced truth from my perspective. This is what I do know: Staying true to myself, true to my word and acting in accordance with my own code of being resonates from within. Living truthfully may be inconvenient at times, but it is the only guidance I have on this journey and the only path I can see clearly before me. The path doesn't necessarily equate with fate, so much as my faith in that resonance and the belief that a life lived according to my own code of being cannot not lead me astray.
