Pattern Interruption Non-News has no informational value, just potential experiential value. [Food-for-thought, by definition, comes with indigestion. If food-for-thought goes down easy, it's not food-for-thought but just brain-candy.]
I write this freely, unafraid of self-contradiction. And I encourage you to read this blog with the same attitude of interpretive freedom.
Walt Whitman: Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large: I contain multitudes.
Friday, December 31, 2010 Dyson, Sunyata, emptiness, satisfaction, vacuum Tuesday, April 27, 2010 Truth is tribe-specific, mind-specific, moment-specific, fear-specific information.
You make a sound (whatever it is that your culture designated for a given fear)
And - bam! - everybody’s mind stops agog: “What? What?!”
I know one thing: there is no one thing, i.e. there is no one truth, i.e. there is no truth.
I left some blank space above and below for you to process this information
out of the singularity of your emptiness.
Fear no emptiness, certainly not your own!
"Boo!-ddha" is but an alarm call for: "beware of informational fullness."
Empty your mind of fear.
Your (and my) skull is a soup bowl full of alphabet; tip it over.
Fear no information.
Let mind spill.

I ate your mind:
Now, let’s smile, Emptiness.
A hungry ghost of perfection, I am as full as I am empty.
Seconds anyone?
That is, if you got time...
Do you?
News programming conditions. Non-News Mindstream de-conditions and de-programs.
Do I stand by any of these thoughts? Not when I sit (in meditation).
