My sidekick has been acting really gay lately...I've been writing mad
blogs, sending them in, and to my surprise they haven't been posting.
Pfft! Also, more bad news MY P.C IS BROKEN ONCE AGAIN. I'm seriously
thinking about becoming a MAC....smh
READ! READ! READ!<br>Okay now for the "out there" shit.....I finally started reading 'The
power of Now' by Eckhart Tolle. Nigga, this
book....is.....fucking.....nuts! And I mean that in a good way.
Read this: (its from the book)
The book is in Q&A format....
Question:
Aren't the past and future just as real, sometimes even more real,
than the present? After all, the past determines who we are, as well as
how we perceive and behave in the present. And out future goals
determine which actions we take in the present.
Answer:
You haven't yet grasped the essence of what I am saying because you
are trying to understand it mentally. The mind cannot understand this.
Only YOU can. Please just listen.
Have you ever experienced, done, thought, or felt anything outside the
Now? Do you think you ever will? Is it possible for anything to happen
or BE outside the Now? The answer is obvious, is it not?
Nothing ever happened in the past; it happened in the Now.
Nothing will ever happen in the future; it will happen in the Now.
What you thing of as the past is a memory trace, stored in the mind, of
a former Now. When you remember the past you reactivare a memory trace
-- and you do so now. The future is an imagined Now, a projection of the
mind. When the future comes, it comes as the now. Past and future
obviously have no reality of their own. Just as the moon has no light of
its own, but can only reflect the light of the sun, so are past and
future only pale reflections of the light, power, and reality of the
eternal present. Their reality is "borrowed" from the Now.
The essence of what I am saying here cannot bw understood by the mind.
The moment you grasp it, there is a shift in consciousness from mind to
being, from time to presence. Suddenly, everything feels alive, radiates
energy, emmanates being.
