Haven't been blogging lately. Puggle, my doggie, takes up much of my time going up and down the elevator to pee. Fifteen stories up here so that's a lot of elevation. It is 4 in the morning and we've already been downstairs once otherwise I'D BE SCARED TO TURN MY BACK ON HER TO WORK.
I don't know what to say. I guess we could talk about Facebook which I have now gotten on. (that didn't come out quite right did it. I'll have a little more tea.) It seemed that many people wanted to be my friend, people who I thought were my friends for decades including an old beau from Junior College.
Anyway so now it's being done thanks to my programmer in chennai . I wanted some of my stuff from my website, saiwonderland.net, to be included and so thanks to a program called 'team viewer' something or other, he is able to make my mouse click on things to add to my Facebook account. Frankly I thought Facebook was just a big ego trip until the 'Arab Spring' when we found out that it is actually changing the world. I think maybe all these little messenges we get saying that someone wants to be your friend, has a deeper meaning. I think Facebook is really Atmic and will lead not only to the Arab Spring but to the Universal Spring of mankind, the Golden Age.
OK I know it's only four in the morning and we all have a deeper perspective at this time. Swami calls it, Brahmamurtham or something like that, 'the time of Brahman.' I don't know about you but I definitely feel closer to my real Atmic self at this time of day. Where was I? Oh yes, Facebook. It may seem to be abit shallow and silly but I really think it is the Universal mind. Of course, what doesn't come from the universal mind. I think you could call it Vidya Vihari maybe. The vehicle of wisdom. My programmer in Chennai is working on that project even now as I type these words. He is doing Swami's work
This blog is a little more disjointed then usual, isn't it?. I may be loosing it. Life is becoming one long senior moment as vocabulary drops away and simple words take the place of more colorful ones. The ideas, my opinions, don't seem to be doing that. Pity. I just have trouble expressing them.. I may have to take all of you, (both of you) along on this dementia trip. Maybe it isn't really dementia; I have always been considered to be somewhat vague. I think I've mentioned the book, 'No Mind, I am the Self' before. Not that I've actually read the book, mind you but I like the title. And if and when the mind does go 'bye bye', are we left in 'the void'? Swami spoke often about the blank mind and how that is truly mediation. Is that blank mind the same as the blank mind found in nursing home patients, something we should encourage? Maybe all the Alzheimer patients are simply enlightened beings. Do you think that could be true? They don't eat because they know they really aren't the body but the Atma? Maybe most of these zombies in nursing homes are actually sitting there staring at the wall in bliss. Don't we hope?
Right, so they are enlightened and Facebook is bringing to the world the 'golden age'. Why not? At 4 in the morning everything seems possible.
Haha! As usual, you reflect all of us. As for your disjointed thoughts and senior moments, rest assured, you are in good company. Don't forget the lightening-speed passage of time too. Zoooooom.
