Khayyam, Destiny and Teacher Tanned.

Life's a checkerboard of nights and days,
The unsung bard of Persia says,
Where destiny with men for pieces plays
Hither and thither moves and mates and slays
And one by one back in the closet lays -
O destiny, how inscrutable are your ways
Mating and slaying Humans too have done, always
But man's bitten more by the money craze
His motionless time's spent in a daze.
But better that, than a man who slays
In the name of a being to whom he prays.
The Feller up there doesn't understand man's ways
And lost in prayer he can't get what He says.
Unthinking, unfeeling Man sings His praise
But hurts other beings in God's great maze
Believing prayer and religion are the only ways
That will lift man from the surrounding haze.

God, why can't you teach this thing called man
To break the boundaries and lift the ban
On some coloured teachers who can
Teach English as well as the white man can.

"Reality" is a word in the English language which happens to be (a) a noun and (b) singular. Thinking in the English language (and in cognate Indo-European languages) therefore subliminally programs us to conceptualize "reality" as one block-like entity, sort of like a huge New York skyscraper, in which every part is just another "room" within the same building. This linguistic program is so pervasive that most people cannot "think" outside it at all, and when one tries to offer a different perspective they imagine one is talking gibberish.

The notion that "reality" is a noun, a solid thing like a brick or a baseball bat, derives from the evolutionary fact that our nervous systems normally organize the dance of energy into such block-like "things," probably as instant bio-survival cues.

Such "things," however, dissolve back into energy dances -- processes or verbs -- when the nervous system is synergized with certain drugs or transmuted by yogic or shamanic exercises or aided by scientific instruments. In both mysticism and physics, there is general agreement that "things" are constructed by our nervous systems and that "realities" (plural) are better described as systems or bundles of energy functions.

So much for "reality" as a noun. The notion that "reality" is singular, like a hermetically sealed jar, does not jibe with current scientific findings which, in this century, suggest that "reality" may better be considered as flowing and meandering, like a river, or interacting, like a dance or evolving, like life itself.

CMM,

Your words are kind, your speech is clear
I'll accept your gift, and without a fear
I hope the loaf that I might get out there
Will be enough for a family to share.

Man must go where him his calling takes
But provide for the folks whose company he forsakes.
Though essentially alone there are strings that bind
And one must work, their bread to find.
