OF YOUR ATTENTION WILL COME
WHEN YOU WILL START SEEING the truth..
Lead me from dreaming to waking. 
Lead me from opacity to clarity.
Lead me from the complicated to the simple. Lead me from the obscure to the obvious. Lead me from intention to attention. Lead me from what I'm told I am to what I see I am. 
Lead me from confrontation to wide openness. Lead me to the place I never left, 
Where there is peace, and peace -from the Upanishads- 
Unless you know the emptiness and bliss inside yourself..you'll be a robot forced by the same emptiness and bliss trying to know itself..by pain..
...inside your self also..trust me!..said the mahayogi!
In silence there must be movement, and in motion,
There must be silence. A small movement is better than a big one.. No movement is better than a small one..listen! Silence is all the movement's mother.. In Movement you should be like a dragon or a tiger. In non Movement you should be like a Buddha. -- Wang Xiangzhai(November 26, 1885 - July 12, 1963}What is referred to as mindlessness is absence of the human mentality; what is referred to as mindfulness is mindfulness of the Tao. When one is free of the human mentality, the mutual sensing of the earthly and celestial is swift; when one is mindful of the Tao, effective practice endures. Swiftness of sensing comes about spontaneously, without cultivation, without striving; long perseverance comes about through effort, and involves action and striving. Striving and non-striving each has its secret; the distinction is all a matter of the absence of the human mentality and the presence of mindfulness of the Tao. After one has reached complete realization of the universal Tao, neither existence nor nonexistence remain; others and self are ultimately empty, and one enters the state of ultimate truthfulness, like a spirit. Here, it is not only the human mentality that cannot be applied; even the mindfulness of Tao is not applicable." - Liu I-ming
The Conduct of the Moon and Clouds
The consistent conduct of people of the Way is like the flowing clouds with no grasping mind, like the full moon reflecting universally, not confined anywhere, glistening within each of the ten thousand forms.
Dignified and upright, emerge and make contact with the variety of phenomena, unstained and unconfused. Function the same toward all others since all have the same substance as you. Language cannot transmit this, speculation cannot reach it. Leaping beyond the infinite and cutting off the dependent, be obliging without looking for merit.
This marvel cannot be measured with consciousness or emotion. On the journey accept your function, in your house please sustain it. Comprehending birth and death, leaving causes and conditions, genuinely realize that from the outset your spirit is not halted. So we have been told that the mind that embraces all the ten directions does not stop anywhere.
-- Hongzhi Zhengjue (1091-1157)

Where there is peace, and peace - The Upanishads

In ancient times, both in Egypt and
in India, the Cobra symbolized the feminine principle of life, namely wisdom,
fertility, wholeness (i.e. healing) and chaos, in short, unlimited creative
potential. Here in Victor’s Way
the cobra has been given a throne and which serves as Wisdom Seat.
The Wisdom (or Buddha) Seat is always
empty. Emptiness signifies absolute openness and limitlessness. Anyone can
sit on the Wisdom Seat and from it create and awaken to any reality.
The sitter who fills the Wisdom Seat is
the embodiment of the masculine principle, namely the function of limitation.
By taking the seat the sitter limits and so relativizes the limitless
feminine principle. However, it is by means of specific limitation (read:
selection) that the sitter creates an actual, therefore graspable, therefore
meaningful view.
The Wisdom Seat, i.e. the feminine as
‘Mother’ or matrix function that offers virtually unlimited creative
potential, is conserved. The sitter, i.e. the masculine or ‘Father’ function
that limits and so actualizes her virtual potential, is not conserved.
Cognition (to wit, arousal or awakening) of the Basic Operating System (or algorithm) of life and death prior to relative application (i.e. to selective interpretation as fractal elaboration) is true, therefore whole and complete Wisdom. Since it presents prior to (relative) application, it is empty (of form, name, extension and so on, in other words, it is non-relative).
Because Whole Wisdom is empty (i.e. of the relative
because limited), so the Wisdom (or Bodhi Seat1) is empty
(Sanskrit: sunja).
Because the Wisdom Seat - that is to
say, Wisdom - is (always) empty (indeed, blind) anyone can sit on, i.e.
activate it, wholly or partially.
The fact is that everyone actually uses (i.e. passes
through) whole Wisdom (i.e. returns to original ‘factory settings’ or the
Basic Operating System (as initiating algorithm or fractal) of life/death)
from moment to moment, but abides there for a moment only. Consequently the
Whole Wisdom affect is momentary and minute, hence barely conscious.
Meditation (or a trauma, for instance a near death experience that produces
@1 mental concentration) can raise the affect of
Wisdom into full everyday consciousness.
To actualise, i.e. give real form to the
slice (i.e. as selection) of unlimited wisdom decided on whilst sitting on
the Wisdom Seat, the sitter must quit the seat (i.e. sacrifice whole for
partial, hence incomplete Wisdom) and return to his or her particular (hence
relative) world. In other words, ‘To find a niche you must leave the Way.’
If for a moment the sitter forgets the
personal self (as relative position) then he or she can merge with the
essence of the Wisdom Seat (i.e. of the non-position (or non-discrimination) of
non-relativized wisdom) and full wisdom/knowledge (Pali:
samma-sambodhi)
with or without content and realization and liberation (Sanskrit: moksha) may happen. Returning to the
everyday world with the wisdom of full awakening and applying the chosen slice
(or selection, acting as ignorance) of it there, (self-) realization may
happen and be experienced and enjoyed as sublime bliss.
Since the actual content of observed
wisdom is relative to the self that selects it, therefore a personal fiction,
such wisdom is empty (Sanskrit: sunja) of wholeness, completeness and absolute certainty.
However, the experiences of awakening (read: arousal = realization) and
enlightenment (read: energy or capacity release, i.e. liberation), if
achieved @100%, are wholly fulfilling (indeed, overflowing).
1 … In earliest Buddhism the empty seat symbolised the Tathagata, later
called the Buddha. The seat was empty because the Tathagata,
having ‘gone thus’ (i.e. quit ‘this’), ‘took no position’. Taking no (or the
Zero) position, he refused to contend. In short, he either said ‘Yes’ or
remained silent, thus abiding in sameness (Sanskrit: sama). By refusing to say NO – and which arouses or
awakens, he ceased to sustain or contribute to the (the fire of the) life
process, thus remaining (i.e. extinguished) in Nirvana. The word ‘NO’
(compare the Zen ‘MU’, the Vedanta ‘Neti’, the IT
symbol 1), by blocking or stopping (the emptiness of) ‘Yes’, forces action,
i.e. turbulence and heat, and so creates fullness and realness...

ps..I have to visit this Victor's way park..aghh...is good to be a Buddha like me..kissi to him:),,
Jessus died..Mohamed died..and I don't feel very good either!!!..kiss
In silence there must be movement, and in motion, there must be silence.
A small movement is better than a big,
no movement is better than a small
silence is all the movement's mother...LISTEN!!
In Movement you should be like a dragon or a tiger.
In non Movement you should be like a Buddha.

"To us all towns are one, all men our kin.
Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill.
Man's pains and pains' relief are from within.
Thus have we seen in visions of the wise !."

In order to subdue the mind, act with non-action.
Of movement and stillness, be aware of their origin;
There is no work to do, much less someone to seek.
The true and constant must respond to phenomena;
Responding to phenomena, you must be unconfused.
When unconfused, the nature will stabilize by itself;
When the nature stabilizes, energy returns by itself.
When energy returns, the elixir crystallizes by itself;
Within the pot, the trigrams of kǎn and lí(heaven and earth) are joined.
Yīn and yáng arise, alternating over and over again;
Every transformation comes like a clap of thunder.
White clouds form and come to assemble at the peak;
The sweet nectar sprinkles down Mount Sumeru.
Swallow for yourself this wine of immortality;
You wander so freely—who is able to know you?
Sit and listen to the tune played without strings;
Clearly understand the mechanism of creation.
It comes entirely from these twenty lines;
A true ladder going straight to Heaven.-Daoist text -
"The center of the cyclone is that
rising quiet central low-pressure place in which one can learn to live
eternally. Just outside of this Center is the rotating storm of
one's own ego, competing with other egos in a furious high-velocity
circular dance. As one leaves center, the roar of rotating wind
deafens on more and more as one joins this dance. One's centered
thinking-feeling-being, one's own Satoris, are in the center only,
not outside. One's pushed-pulled driven states, one's anti-Satori
modes of functioning, one's self-created hells, are outside the
center. In the center of the cyclone one is off the wheel of Karma,
of life, rising to join the Creators of the Universe, the Creators of
us.
Here we find that we have created Them who are Us...
Lilly's Law
"In the province of the mind, what
is believed to be true is true or becomes true, within certain limits
to be found experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be
transcended. In the province of the(true mind..added by danny) mind, there are no limits."" -- John C. Lilly -

The student asked: “A sage's response to changing conditions
is unlimited. Does he have to study beforehand?”
He should worry only about his mind's not being
clear, and not about the inability to respond to all changing conditions.”
