the sky was Blue..

 

..and grass was green

the world was Beautiful

..or so it seemed

but one thing

above all is true

..that this place once

was a Home to you..

Cassiopeia Project ACTV, niGHTpiSces, Deviant Art, 2010

 

In the stillness of the night, when not a sound breaks the hushed silence, they timorously creep into your mind. Fragile, flittering forms often more real than reality seek you out from the deepest abyss of your soul and open for you a vista of visions nonsensical, terrifying, fantastic and sometimes, just sometimes, hauntingly beautiful.

 

You wake up with a lump in your throat that threatens to cascade down your eyes, a lingering nostalgia for something near, yet eternity away. But weren't you closer to believing, even then, that somewhere, all that you saw was real; that, beyond the tangible truth of ticking time, you had lived one moment of timeless infinity?

Thinking, loving, hating, dreaming .. is merely a relation to that, which is unknown. Every person.. every object stays unknown, though our relation to that is what matters and builds our world.

 

The grasp of every relation is thrown into infinity, into divinity.

Yáng (陽 or 阳 "sunny place, south slope, north bank (river), sunshine") is the bright element: it is active, light, masculine, positive, upward-seeking, producing and corresponds to the daytime.

 

Inside the world of perceivable phenomena, things appear out of interactions between the opposites (yin & yang), while each one contains a seed of the other, thus cannot exist without it.

 

We perceive things from inside of the symbolic matrix, stretched over the primordial reality, and that very matrix has a polar structure known as yin and yang.

It was always us who connected the dots.

It's midnight and my life is transparent. I am here, and everything is in it's place - as it always was and it always will be. When i act, i burn myself, i leave no trace.

 

I am a beginner at everything i do, as in the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few.

To meditate is to drift towards yourself. But yourself is not inside you, rather in everything there is to be. As a quantum field you stretch over the infinite, as the infinite stretches inside your body - and never reaches it's bounds.

 

To meditate is to listen to a heartbeat. A heartbeat of infinite.

As they pull down the sun

the contrasts get stronger

the violence amplifies..
