A weird, cool thing
Another unusual thing
Whoa! Trisonic!

Poems
The Exile’s Way
The Exile’s Way
To let go of future & past
Being without perturbation
Long-abiding peace
Breathing art of a life
Light
A kind of dense cathedral light
Water
River Waves
Green hills twist to flat beach
A sea of reeds and wet lake bed
I was a fisher with a hook
On all of the great shores
On a fortress island in the sea
The ice does not come
I have traversed those seas
I am a very long river
Debris collects
Crow vulture Jane
Growth
This is pine country
Flight
Fleeing, yes, fleeing
And you'd better fly away
The moon was earlier a feather
You are no more than a wisp of air
Blow, breeze, blow
Sense the sharp wind
Fireflies
Rest After Motion
A Narcissist
These days fold into each other
Woven together
Straight line an hour’s long
One day too many, I sat astride
The tearful world cannot bind me
The trains pass as the seconds
Pleasures Unknown
Your pattern is stenciled
A history on the lost labor of love
Never had a craft
Preposterous
Ancient Greece became
On a day of things preposterous
L’enfer nous entoure
Debris collects
Between
Some Haikus
Essays
Who?
What you call "you"
Take the question “Who am I?"
So big and so small
You make yourself
You have to be Self-absorbed
Some people are children
We think we’re in a special time
Capital "You" is the ocean
Two sandcastles on a beach
All your successes in the end
Who again?
Consciousness
A measly 40,000 years of art
We cannot fight
You are all alone, but...
Simple rules to abide by
What is the universe?
The universe creates itself
Size of the known universe
The cosmological argument
The unknowable
The double-slit experiment
A frightening thought
Compassion
Compassion vs. love
Compassion is not the same
It is very dangerous to your health
Ahimsa ("non-harm")
Philosophy of Ahimsa
All paths converge on Ahimsa
It's a funny thing, this Ahimsa
The most ahimsa decision
Some good general precepts
Bhagavad Gita: true allegory
Cruelty and Suffering
"Trivial” suffering
Evil is gratuitous cruelty
This is the nihilism
Creation and Destruction
Self-creation without beginning
The universe is an impulse
Not good vs. evil
Sleep
When waking from sleep
Sleep may be a mechanism...
Sleeping is the original state
History and Society
A letter to capitalism
Choose not to go to war
A pivotal moment
Humans pretty much
Native Americans now
Word!
Execrable debate
Change in the air
Thoughts
Observations
Beautiful Paradoxes
I've noticed some things
It's funny when people say
Self-realization is analog
Codependent Relationships
Declarations
Why a more spiritual life?
Being young overrated
I am a non-dualist
Breakthrough
F* it. I am tired of suffering.
Absolutely NO reason to waste...
Real Rock Bottom
Exhortations
Please do this now!
Life is very easy
Nip the Negative in the Bud
Right now
Certainty? Ha!
I feel dumped by the world
Relax...
Why be a pessimist?
Let your guard down
Every day is like...
Spiritual Practices & Methods
Becoming a witness or observer
This is a neat little mediation trick
Modern Madness
Mind-boggling!
Bizarro world!
Nature, a black screen?
Epigrams
Snippets
A compassionate society
Now I am always lucky
Everything can be
I'm in the subway...
Voice calling
Limitless light
When they say that the universe is...
You only have to look
The story of the Titanic
Halfness
