Karmacology: Mindful Living, Sacred Practice

The Foundation of the Universe


The fulfilment of desires, the foundation of the universe, the rewards of sacrifices, the shore where there is no fear, that which adorable and great, the wide abode and the goal-all this you have seen; and being wise, you have with firm resolve discarded everything.
-- Yajur Veda, Katha Upanishad, Part One, Chapter II, 11

History Starts Now


Should there be "people" or "peoples"?
Money, funny pedestals for fools who never pay.
Raise your army; choose your steeple.
Don't be shy, the satellites can look the other way.

Lose the earthquakes; keep the faults.
Fill the oceans without the salt.
Let every man own his own hand.

What kind of world do you want?
Think anything.
Let's start at the start,
Build a masterpiece.
Be careful what you wish for;
History starts now...
-- John Ondrasik

Try


God doesn't require us to succeed; he only requires that you try.

Your Freedom Gets You Where You Want to Go


Question how much freedom your path affords you. Be utterly ruthless about it. It's your freedom that will get you to where you want to go.
