speaking of the 0xDEAD

[connectuum]

this path you lay
it fascinates
gratitude to you
for such effort

i saw a gap
that perhaps
riddled, i could fill
for what it's worth:

Perhaps most strange of all is that this word is also translated as dead on several occasions.

...

It becomes incredibly confusing to attempt to reconcile each of these definitions to one root, and especially confusing to understand how each of these ideas should be applicable to one group of ancient people, incorporating both the ideas of something dead:

• a ghost
• something feeble or ethereal
• the concept of healing and revitalizing
• while the definition of “giant” is thrown in, besides

{ from the Red Book }

On the seventh night, the spirit of the depths spoke to me:

look into your depths,
pray to your depths,
waken the dead.

...

Did you not see that when your creative force turned to the world, how the dead things moved under it and through it, how they grew and prospered, and how your thoughts flowed in rich rivers? If your creative force now turns to the place of the soul, you will see how your soul becomes green and how its field bears wonderful fruit.

...

My soul answered:

[...] how can you suffer from scorn
if you address me
with those words that i give you?
do you know, then,
who i am?

have you
grasped me,
defined me,
and made me
into a dead formula?

[...] I did not know that I am your vessel, empty without you, but brimming over with you.

...

As the fate of the peoples is represented to you in events, so will it happen in your heart. If the hero in you is slain, then the sun of the depths rises in you, [...] everything that, up til now, seemed to be dead in you will come to life.

...

Incapacity prevents further ascent. Greater height requires greater virtue. We do not possess it. We must first create it by learning to live with our incapacity. We must give it life.

...

// in the Red Book: worldly words are a collapse from the image and path and Truth and Light and infinite potential of life. worldly events and explanations and measurements and the past-and-has-been are all dead. we live in the realm of the dead, trapped in our serfdom. but we can find our way out.

{ take it from Maynard }

thoughts and prayers?
adorable.
like cake in a crisis
faith without works is
dead dead dead dead
talk talk talk talk
G t F O o M W

dead
silent giant
feeble in sleep
wielder in waking
of the terrible healing
here, ghosts aghast
compelled to wait
by the maker
sleeping agents
until we wake

and such the interesting image:
[schizo v. psycho]

"find Christ, but not in organized religion"
indeed
it is in you
you must find
what cannot be taught
the non-sense image eyes
then--
you rise

What is the deal with all the Course of Miracles-esque mystic stuff anyway?
