Focus

15 Feb 2008

It’s been made known that this website is neither a delivery center nor a propaganda tool for self-serving interests. There is nothing to buy here and commerce is looked upon with disinterest. In this capitalistic day and age it seems that nothing occurs without profit and the motive such entails. This wrong view creates scarcity of the highly prized and duly worshipped government issued currency. The focus these days is fervently and solidly upon the willingness to “live”, to “have” and to “hold” those things which have but a momentary existence. You can’t buy your way into heaven but you sure can buy your way into hell. In the pain and torment of purchasing spiritual pleasures nothing is gained and what becomes even further lost is one’s well being.

Here, there is no commerce, no delivery of technical expertise and certainly no interest in what has occurred in the days gone by.

The state of clear is a beautiful sight to behold because there is nothing to hold. Space becomes free and clear. The ‘official’ Scientology organization has no pull here, therefore the space which most others devote to this subject is free and clear. Don’t kid yourself, an enormous amount of people dedicate an enormous amount of time, space and energy to the ‘official’ organization and despite this huge gathering of interest, nothing gets resolved. The organization has continued and will continue along it’s merry way.

Resolution is not about conflict. It is about clear and clean space.

Reach And Withdraw

29 Nov 2007

Over the course of time it has become quite apparent that this website has followed the tried and true process of reach and withdraw. But that is in appearance only as there is no reach and withdraw going on. There is only “going on” that is going on. Does that make sense?

If this appears to you as being a tongue twisting ride into obscurity well then, perhaps it would be better to study up on the ways and means of awareness because that is what it is about. In awareness, when action takes place, there is not a process whereby thought is examined, tested and thoroughly research in order use and abuse it to no end. That my friend, is the way of depravity, of looking down at the dwindling spiral and leaping into it with glee. No one in their right mind would contemplate such a thing but in reality this right mind is not a common trait shared among the cattle in the stock yard of illusion.

Among the storied telling of the various entities who have chosen to be pieces in the attempted decimation of the Free Zone there really isn’t much to behold. Awareness, left to it’s own devices, is not something easily understood by the conscious mind. In it’s brute force of attack, a twisted mind comes to be quite limited in it’s depth and breath. When awareness becomes a mind and nothing else, all will seems at odds. It will be a struggle and a fight to realize the goals and dreams of what it, itself, has imagined for itself. Awareness has no such constructs.

Pointedly Obscure

16 Oct 2007

It is true that this web site is quite obscure. The verse is obtuse and the cacophonous display of seemingly irrelevant and irreverent terms and ideas can be like the fingernails upon the chalkboard. Yes, the mind can be a wonderfully annoying entity seemingly bent upon nothing but it’s own self aggrandizement.

So how does one wend their way through the battle-zone of thoughts, ideas and concepts in order to arrive at the one who is in charge of this morass of baggage? The trials and tribulations of such endeavors has created a plethora of rules, regulations, organizations and other such thrill-seekers. In this chess game of skill, mortal living has come to reflect the preponderance of ideological love-making embraced and enforced for but the “common good”. Cattle are quite common and do taste good! Unless, of course, one is not in the business of devouring animals in the name of “sustenance”.

This day and age requires that we sustain ourselves through the trial and torment of others. In this way, our sense of self worth is allowed to reach it’s pinnacle of greatness. But this is not correct thinking. In place of exhibiting our greatness we demonstrate our lack. One need not strive to the position of being at the top of the food chain unless the emptiness within motivates such action. Action is the outward demonstration of our inner desires. What do your actions say about you?

If one deems another to be ‘wrong’, then one has already doomed oneself to be so.

Pondering The Unfathomable

07 Sep 2007

Here is an entry to demonstrate that time passes and so do we. Among the plenitude of our experience there remains one final push into the reality we most fear - death. Whether the scythe cuts one this pass or the next, all that we can claim with conviction is that indeed, it does cut and we become laid to rest. So what is the point of evolution then? What becomes of the nurturing nature of expanding awareness? Questions, by their design perpetuate one’s desire of reaching into an unknown which has been gleefully created for us, by us. Enjoyment knows no bounds like our spirit of play!

This website has yet again been altered to present the same old stuff, dressed to kill, in yet another fashionable guise. So why bother even reading this superfluous characterization of belief? I ponder the wonder of it all and declare in full jest: “What time did you say it was?”

All moments have their time and since time consists of nothing but, here is the moment to contemplate. Go ahead, take it. How about now? Endurance as a quality of life continues to persist as we reap our experience and wear our very best sun glasses so that the end of the line cannot be seen so quickly and most obviously.

Before the point becomes unbearable please be sure to pass it all by relegating the chaff to where it belongs - momentary creationism of the finest grade. Yes, we do perpetuate ourselves quite nicely, do we not?

Would the last one out please turn off the lights.

Philosophical Conjuring

05 Mar 2007

It is recognized that a lot of visitors who come here arrive through various links and such on the Internet via the Free Zone America (fza.org) domain name. Currently that domain is being redirected to the Other Times, Other Places section of Gathering Minds. Eventually, this redirection, and most likely the associated data, will be eliminated. This will have a negative impact on web site statistics but since there is zero interest in quantification here, who cares!

Most of what occurs out and away on the Internet involves seeking and searching for one thing or another to possess. This folly of great magnitude creates a narrow and hugely limited focus of attention. Don’t get me wrong as a narrow and limited focus of attention can be a blessing in determining subtle differences and similarities but unfortunately the fza.org domain is typically associated with that focus in a detrimental fashion. Therefore, that domain and it’s associated material is of little to no use at all in helping to bring the ship about and head it in the right direction. For most, their ship is simply stuck out on the ocean of experience and there it remains, pounded against the rocks of cause and effect.

That is not something which should be encouraged — at all.
