Pop Quiz for 2010: Quick!
What holds reality together?
That's right, taking it seriously -- nothing less,
and nothing more.
...(Now aren't you glad I asked?)

Mathematical Calculations Update:
The geometry and topography of human thought in certain areas is such that the further away seems a possibility, the more agreeable, and thus possible it seems. To acute eyes, this alone reveals the basis for man's stories of distant gods and faraway adventures.
...How about some What If -- what if being more conscious is simply a condition of finally realizing where you
(and everyone else) actually is.

There was once a city served by two infrastructures of water,
sewers, power, and communications,
and one of them was solidly and unshakably put in place,
while the other was not so much so,
and while everyone was serviced by both,
some were more so by one than the other.

One man recently pondered:
"If a state of expanded consciousness is like being of 'no mind,' then not only 'what has one thereby gained' but also 'what have they given up?'"
(No description can convey the feel of the streets of another world -- only the walking there can.)

A man wrote the Universal Doctor and asked:
"Is it possible for a person to worry too much about not being more conscious than they are? That is, be continually thinking about it so that it becomes unprofitable even harmful?"

And the doctor replied:
"I understand your question entirely, but suggest that you go too far in your use of the word 'harmful.' The rest of your comment is certainly worthy of additional consideration on your part.
Sincerely,
The Doctor."

Human Thought -- the original friction-run toy.
(...And one man asks: "Could I have a race car instead?")

To try and point out the special, invisible mountain to himself,
he pointed out all of the visible ones around it.
...And by such means do commoners become kings,
and kings become mystics.

One day Muhammad said to a grandson: "If the mountain does not come to you..."
And the nipper interrupted: "Yeah, I know, you must go to the mountain."
And The Blessed One replied: "Not necessarily -- you can always travel to everywhere but that mountain, and wait for the rest of the range to collapse upon it."
And for a brief moment, the younger one's eyes were unpeeled.
