To be aware
To be aware means to be sensitive, alive to the things about one, to nature, to people, to colour, to trees, to the environment, to the social structure, the whole thing; to be aware outwardly of all that’s happening and to be aware of what is happening inside. Krishnamurti
It is light
while standing here
waiting for the light
to turn on
Sometimes the shade
to many lines
will obscure your path
only then
what was once discarded
a welcome distraction
may guide the way
If you look inside
you will see
what’s seen
outside
618 Being philosophically minded. -We generally strive to acquire a single mental posture, a single class of opinions, for all the situations and events in life – that is what we are most likely to call being philosophically minded. But it may have a higher value for the enrichment of knowledge if we do not make ourselves uniform in this way, but instead listen to the soft voice of different situations in life; these bring their own particular views along with them. Thus, we take an attentive interest in the life and being of many things by not treating ourselves as fixed, stable, single individuals.
I only see up close
the discarded cup
it once cleansed my thirst
though not this one
someone else voted
to throw it away
I just recognize
what is left
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I will leave instructions
but not where you can find them
a massage received
just after you arrive in this world
The buildings of society are falling over
says the alarmist
with binoculars in its hands
I say
we need more nearsightedness
You know which side the door swings
just look at it
but do you pull
or push
do you decide
or not even think about it
without shame when mistaken
or do you feel it inside
621 Love as a trick. -Anyone who really wants to get to know something new (be it a person, an event, a book) does well to take up this new thing with all possible love, to quickly avert his eye from and even to forget everything in it that appears hostile, offensive, or false to him: so that, for example, we give the author of a book the greatest possible head start and, as at a race, actually yearn with a pounding heart for him to reach his goal. By proceeding in this way, we press into the heart of the new thing, to the point that gives it motion: and this is precisely what getting to know it means. If we have gotten this far, the understanding can set its restrictions afterward; that overestimation, that temporary staying of the critical pendulum, was simply a trick for enticing the soul of the thing to come forth.
The shadow your past drags
betrays me your hiding
The day just started
so the sun rises
though the shadow lines are cast
they seem frozen
when I pass
everything seems to be frozen
when you pass by
now I think of it
standing still
You shine light like its old wisdom
but when I follow your thread
its just modern power you project
My house is numbered
twice
so you don't miss it
but I hope you do
My exhaust is my little house
where I live on top of the roof
of my house
