I seem to disappoint people, and they disappoint me.

Because everything is based on impressions. I had five seconds to make a good first impression and now I'm going through endless iterations of those five seconds. And I think that you know that I know it doesn't mean anything. So go ahead and impress me. I know it doesn't mean anything.

And me? I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for. Because it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something. And if you find that moment... it lasts forever...

All my life I have been acutely aware of a contradiction in the very nature of my existence.

title: Yukio Mishima

Jaz celo življenje zori, zagledan vase.
A svoje zrcalo še drugim zori,da ob njih rase.

Jaz nikdar ne more biti sam jaz, če je sam.
Šele takrat se ga da razločiti,
ko hoče iz sebe drugam.

Zato je jaz v sebi razklan 
na dve polovici:
na tisto iz svetlih pričakovanj
in tisto po resnici.

Tako mora ves čas stremeti na eno in na drugo stran.
Samo kadar spi, se mu sveti eno samo lice iz sanj.

A včasih se jaz prebudi
v noč brez zvezd.
Takrat se še sam znoči v podzavest.

Wings Of Desire

title: Der Himmel über Berlin

Last night... I dreamt of a stranger... Only with him could I be lonesome... open up to him... wholly open, wholly for him. Welcome him wholly into me... surround him with the labyrinth... of shared bliss.

 //
Letzte Nacht träumte ich von einem Unbekannten, meinem Mann. Nur mit ihm konnte ich einsam sein, offen werden für ihn, ganz offen, ganz für ihn, ihn ganz als Ganzen in mich einlassen, ihn umschließen mit dem Labyrinth der gemeinsamen Seligkeit. Ich weiß, du bist es.

..all the earthly things they stop to play, for we are all breathless without you..

zamolkli premiki

Sto Alenka Rebula - Sto obrazov notranje moči

DVIGNJEN POGLED :: Želja nas nauči videti

Želja deluje počasi. Le počaasi postajamo vseljivi za njeno razkošno vrenje. Neopazno vstavlja žive celice v nenaseljeni prostor v nas.

Prebujanje se dogaja neslišno in v polsnu. Zamolkli premiki začenjajo pritiskati na stene srca, v nepredvidljivih trenutkih nas zajame nejasen in ganljiv nemr. Čutimo oklevanje svojih oči. 

Nad našim vidnim poljem, nad črto obzorja, pod katero smo se vedno premikali se izpod pregnetenih ozvezdij izvijajo novorojeni svetovi.

Dvigniti je treba pogled in pustiti, da oči vzplavajo. Vzhajajoča ogromnost nas zajame in potegne k sebi. Pripada nam in se nam hoče dati. V osvobojenem pogledu zajamemo razmaknjeno obzorje, se zavihtimo na svojo srečno zvezdo in jo zajezdmo. Z rdečo grivo se poženemo v dir.

Dviganje pogleda je vaja za močna srca.

Objem

Iz drevesa ljubezni raste veja, ki bi jo lahko pomenovali celostno zajemanje sveta...čutno, umsko, čustveno, duhovno. Celostno zajemanje je objem.Vendar ne objem iz pohlepa, kot bi hotel zgrabiti vse vase. Ne, to je objem s katerim hkrati sprejemaš vse in se ves tudi daješ.

Enkrat v življenju moraš nekje v tišini, pod modrim nebom, pod zvezdami, ob valovanju morja ali ob nihanju trav sprejeti vse svoje življenje. Od spočetja do smrti. Vse kar se ti dogaja ali se ti bo dogajalo je del tebe, del tvoje celovitosti. Če dele te celovitosi zavračaš nisi več popoln. In v tebi se bo kar naprej oglašala želja po združitvi, da bi bil zopet celovit. Potrebno je zavestno sprejeti in objeti vse svoje življenje.

J. Urbanija (Ljubiti in Živeti)

in pošiljam objem. kdorkoli ga potrebuje.

Januarske kontemplacije: Sobivanje in Smisel

Prakse sobivanja so povezane z upoštevanjem mere in meje vseh vidikov življenja. Takšno upoštevanje se razvija s praksami iskanja ravnotežja med bližino in oddaljenostjo. Pri tem poskušamo najprej vzpostaviti oddaljenost in ne bližino. Šele po predhodni vzpostavitvi oddaljenosti, v kateri se ne vidimo kot gospodar, se lahko začnemo odpirati bližini.

Kontemplativna kultura se torej ne začne s približevanjem, temveč s primerno razdaljo. 

Osmišljevanju je potrebno pustiti čas. Smisla se ne da izsiliti, potrebno je znati počakati na njegovo dozoretje. Tako kot se vdih osmišljuje v razmerju do izdiha in odpira pot celostnemu prepoznavanju, se tudi osebno življenje osmišljuje v verigi sobivanja, ki to osebno življenje omogoča.

V tem pogledu posebej spodbujamo tiste vidike samopoglabljanja, ki osebno življenje povezujejo v širšo verigo sobivanja in mu na ta način vračajo izgubljeni smisel.

Zakaj sneg naredi tišino?

 

Neither plants nor animals

They differ from other forms of life. Their existence is so innocuous that we don't notice that they exist until they have manifested some mysterious phenomena. They do not exist to frighten people, they just are.
