The Daily Reflections
of Jan Cox

 

It's all right to think:
"I don't like the view from here,"
As long as you eventually realize that:
"Here" is you,
and "the View" IS your "I."

 

 

 

The difference between a regular mystic
and a real mystic
is that a regular mystic
is satisfied by experiencing awakening
while a real mystic is never completely satisfied.

Blunt Fact of the Day:
and Why Not be as blunt and direct about this as possible:
Only one can believe he's in-charge-of-his-life
who does not look-into-the-matter.

 

 

 

Another Curious Story
of a Curious Enterprise:
One man offers his personal view:
"I have this one thought that dislikes the way my thoughts automatically run, and whenever I have this thought,
I dislike the way my thoughts automatically run.
But the rest of the time (when my thoughts are automatically running) it doesn't bother me....
'cause I don't even notice it."

 

 

 

A father instructed his son:
"To make any comment on the nature of your 'self'
is to reveal that you have no understanding of the matter."

(When one man reached a certain stage in his lengthy pursuit of this matter, he noticed that his fingerprints were beginning to fade away.)

 

 

 

The way by which people are able to tolerate
their ordinary state of mind goes like this:
If you "stay-out-of-town"
most of the time
you finally forget
that you ARE out-of-town.

Hey, if you're gonna drink--go for blotto!
