..."But its halloween dad!" she said as she tried to justify her chipped filling in one of her teeth. My daughter had called to seek advise as to what to do about a chipped tooth situation and perhaps ended up learning about what traditions one must follow and which ones are best left out of her life regardless of how many generations have been doing this routinized ritual. Just because you have been doing something "like everybody else" for a long time does not make the act sane or good for you. A wrong act is a wrong act at any age or time. Learn my child to be free and aware; As bad traditions are just as bad as junk food in your mental body! Any tradition which encourages one to get stuffed with all manners of candy needs reexamining, at least the eating of all that candy part.
LEGACY OF A JOURNEY
LOOK WHO IS? Salaam(peace children); What does the sparrow say to Spring in the air? when will my children see unity in face of all separateness? When the time is right, only then will the true seeker see, even with the same eyes which hitherto were unable to do so. Ripen apples fall freely from the tree no reason to hold on to the old life once I was an unripen fruit once I had visions of grandeur and magnificence! Ahhh....how fools rush in where wise men will not enter. Be ever so like the river flowing, not clinging free from the form free from the pain forms contain always seeking the WAY HOME! From morning until night fall that is all THAT IS ALL ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY
