I also love this quote:

"If it was negative, it didn't happen---
except in the world of illusion"

-from Love Signs

Thanks be to God
The world is wide
And I am going far from home, and
I'll forget in Camelot
the man I loved in Rome

.....that love...is not always doing what brings pleasure
love is also doing what is good for someone
whatever the cost, at the moment

sometimes it's leaving...for awhile
and the love is shown, then, in the pain given

...for pain is a lesson
.......best learned
from the one who loves you most

quote:

---

Men always appreciate her gracious tendency to take people as they are, without quibbling. She's as much at home with a scientist who studies tsetse flies in the Congo as with the sword swallower in the side show. They're doing what comes naturally; they're not phonies and that's what counts with her. Her close friends may be weird Matures straight out of the world of Toulouse-Lautrec, or they may be Norman Rockwell paintings come to life.

"Your so-called daydreams are urgings from your own Supraconscious, not merely "wishes" to be briefly enjoyed, then wistfully forgotten. These images originate from the wise Angel of your Higher Self, who repededly urges you, by seeding into your mind a picture of what you were born to do, to take your destined place in the jigsaw puzzle of Life."
-Star Signs pg. 22-23

Often, the initial manifestation of your quest is a series of strange "coincidences" which are not coincidental at all....leading you to certain books written about a variety of metaphysical subjects. You can be led to such esoteric works in several ways. Sometimes through a chance remark from friends...often through your own seemingly aimless but subconsciously purposeful browsing. You'll soon learn to judge yourself whether a book's contents are misleading or wise by listening to the VOICE of your own Higher Self, whispering into your innner ear. You'll learn to feel the messages in a short while. some books ypu may reject, and others you will inwardly know are teaching a facet of universal truth you can accept.

"As I wrote earlier, Lexigrams of words, names or phrases can be silly, serious, sacred or sublime.......To demonstrate a silly one, here are a couple of lines from a verse in one of my poetry books: "What freaky creatures we are...to speak a language in which rats spelled backwards is star."

My name spelled backwards is A RAT. And in Sanskrit Tara means star. Is it just me or is that......'freaky'?

Thorshammer,
It's from the soft cover. What a great quote. I just posted in another thread that, "books pick you not the other way around." Very cool. So true. I can pick up a book and k-NOW almost immediately if I 'need' it or not. It's sort of like "k-NOWing" a book by it's cover. Also just scanning the bookshelves, certain ones will 'pop' out at you.

"only that I've lost my mind, that's all
just that - nothing more
you'll have to visit me at the funny house
as soon as I've been assigned a room and a shrink"

Okay here's another fabulous Gooberz quote: (page 870)

*****************************************
"a sense of humor, my dear Pilgrim
is a precious gift indeed - for it is synonymous
with a tuned-in intellect, and a highly evolved mind
as well as with spiritual profundity

know that there can be no wisdom where there is no humor
and, while all those with humor do not contain wisdom
they possess the initial sparks
conversely, all those with wisdom do not possess humor

for, there can be no wisdom where there is no humor
and no healing laughter
a sense of the ridiculous is a necessity for enlightenment
which is why Buddha chuckles

it would behoove you to always keep in mind
to beware of a man or a woman
who is unable to laugh at himself - or at herself
or at the entire Universal pattern of existence
for humor, you see, has as its foundation
a true and deep perception
of both the human and the galactic condition
revealing the person who possesses it
to also possess infinite compassion
and above all - a sense of perfect balance"

******************************************

LOVE IT! Osho says something similar. Such truth in that quote.

Live, Love and Laugh.
