Although mentally waking up is indeed the most extraordinary thing
that a person can ever experience  --
you still cannot be too normal & ordinary in every other way.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Regarding The Dating Habits Of The Unfragmented:
The unfragmented date only themselves.
    (You can only, “Go steady” with that which IS steady.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Walking uphill backwards is the same as coming downhill backwards, and once you discover this --  it all looks the same –
--  all bright and, woke-up like.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Those who enjoy being brow beaten, and believe that
being censured by a Teacher is the path to enlightenment,
are like sealed jars of preserves, and will always find themselves
under the guidance of paraffin preservers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Once you are unfragmented,
everything you say after that you understand to be but story telling,
(all that you said before was likewise  --   but unrecognized).

                              In that place where everything comes into focus,
                                      understanding is conveyed by silence.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Knowing you're unenlightened doesn’t make you edgier than other people  --
                    --  just more aware of your edginess.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

           Upon being born:  everyone is provided with a self.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Good News Concerning Time: An unfragmented man has no future.

Even Gooder News: He has nothing to think about  --  only stuff to do.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

         Those who preach have nothing to teach.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Artists don’t mind being persecuted  --  only ignored,
(same as with all men harboring hair brain ideas, such as:
that they have ideas that are important).
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                If you think about the same things long enough
                   you will begin to believe they are important.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

During one hero’s decent into hell, he met himself coming back,
who said to him as he went by: “Don’t sweat it.”

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

There is a planet at the edge of this galaxy where on
The Morals to all stories are produced --
......but it blew up several thousand years ago  --
       ......and all we get here now are left over fragments  --
             .....that is why you have to make up your own  --
                  .....if you expect them to be meaningful.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

One man distilled everything he had discovered into eight pithy & poignant words:
”You are only fully consciousness when not thinking.”
His success in spreading this message has only been matched by
his listeners’ immediate  --  thinking-about-it.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

  (Some say it was the moralists’ increasing sense of irony
that caused the planet to finally explode.)
[And some others say there is a special place of hellish torment
awaiting those who start the uphill walk,
but who never fully appreciate the coincidence of having two feet --
 -- just the right number needed TO walk]).

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

When the opera seems nearing the climax,
all fat ladies get antsy about singing any more.
   “Daddy, am I a fat lady?”
     “Hey, which one of you in there asked that?”
          “Hey yourself – you have it backwards:
            a brain is not a, ‘you’  --  it’s the other way around."
 
 








Trying to do the wake-up-thing
is doing to the brain --  what,
if it was the heart --  would be,
interruption of its rhythm.


 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A man attempting this properly is his own study and lab,
using no one else’s text courses, but developing his own as he goes.

 
 
 
 
 
 

                       The king does not tell the joker what to do  --
                               --  what he does doesn’t matter.
 
 

 The Great  Progress: from reprimand to studied disinterest.
 
 
 
 
 

          Waking up is a trick the brain can pull on itself.

P.S. Hansel & Thoughtel were talked about again today   --   just under nom de plumage.
