with a bit of fear and trepredition i am about to embark into a 8 day slient meditaiton retreat. maybe fear isn’t the right word because i am not so sure if it’s the right time in place to put my mind on the proveribal lotus flower. in the context that of what i am going to do after the retreat (a month trip to mexico) and then a very extreme busy year with Orange, the value of the temporary peace may be overshadowed by the activities after the achievement of said peace. granted there is never a good time to take a break away from life and slow things down to almost unbearable silent. no words, no distractions, no books, no problem solving, no whining and no effort to achieve anything. i tell people that they don’t know what they’re missing until they given it a chance. it gives you prespective to understand when you’re life is out of whack. to recognize your mind in different states of awareness allows a point of comparasion between what is possible and what is an endless wheel of illusions. whatever illusions we have about that we’re trying to achive in this short life. ha ha. i am already on my high chair but i will get kick off as soon as i indugle on being human.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
