Good morning rideforever, Your writing style has caught my attention since Day 1 - there is a certain lightness and sassy-ness underlining something substantial. Also your astute use of words is refreshing - brevity the soul of wit? I am hearing this song from The Smiths for the first time - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out. Coincidentally I am introduced to the 'Light' by to two members of TDB recently and I am starting to experience things nicely/differently. Home is heard in the song - please go home when your physical body is reclaimed. - LimA (P.S. Yesterday I was 500 miles away from home. Now I am home and Mom cooked my favorite food.)

rideforever Posted July 15, 2018 There was a great deal of sweetness and wonder in those old movies like Wizard of Oz, and the old Pinocchio and Jungle Book, it was a good era, must truth particularly in Pinocchio I like, dreaming of being a real boy.

rideforever Posted July 15, 2018 It is a joy to open the throttle of human life, to life with a big heart ans shine, after many years of persistent practice ... when the ground is deep then the branches can grow out and flower, flow into the world. But ... I have been smashed by this world so many times that there will never be a day that I don't sit and practice, never will that happen, cleaning the temple is my first and last task of any day, but in between ... who knows. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi rideforever, A temple, like the environment, is on loan to us for passing on to those after us to visit. So your temple, and mine, must be kept clean the whole day. - LimA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rideforever Posted July 15, 2018 As the ground deepens, the branches grow out further, summer can last longer, and the cycle of the elements becomes fuller. If inner stability and self-remembering is stable then one can rest because one is safe; but there is also the possibility to continue and bridge the light to other beings either energetically, or through knowledge, or other ways ... be a secret yogi working in a pet shop. And one must not be complacent. There is as much work to do as one can hope for, and it is real work for a real purpose. It is a great joy to know one's purpose. I see no limits to the possibilities, but if one wants to be a Phoenix soaring one must love the light very much and pay the price of surrender and exploration. We are made as humans but what can we be if the light is within us, unrecognizeable I think. When a seed is small great care and attention must be paid, and with the most astute of teachers ... it is a great fortune to have a grandmother who sits quietly with you and holds your presence. Later one can repay such love a hundred fold, or a thousand fold if you really understand what you received. We live in a world with a great many beings hanging on to a small amount of light inside them, hoping for someone to remember them. Meeting a light-holder one day can alter then entire course of your life and in your ordinary life you might meet many people. Personally I would like to sit in the house of my father quietly for 10,000 years, but I do wish to repay what was given to me, and although some good things have happened to me recently I must not be complacent.

Hi rideforever, Your thread reads - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out Can I make use of some space on your thread to express a last farewell to Sgt Major Saman Kunan.

rideforever Posted July 16, 2018 He was a brave man, he went in to an impossible situation right at the start when little was known, he also seemed to be very fit doing triathlons. But cave diving is very dangerous, hard to imagine something more dangerous really, there is no light, no radio, no ground, no air ... you just have yourself and what you brought with you. It takes a different approach then many challenges we face, the British divers said you basically want zero adrenalin - that's an unusual situation. There are many territories on this planet, and a many things to learn. Saman will go around again, may his journey be filled with light. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is The Universal Light... ? Can The Universal Light be perceived? Or does it comes with a heart beat? Perhaps Saman knew/knows... Edited July 16, 2018 by Limahong Enhance ...
