Heaven and earth and I are of the same root, the ten-thousand things and I are of
one substance.....Zen Master Seng-chao.

Author: Oberon

What you see…………..


A beautiful woman……………is desirable……………….the Monarchs return home.

Sitting still I see time………………the stars twirl all around………………the breeze is hot on the equator.

Memories remind me of you…………….sleepless I toss……………..cool wind blows blue curtains inward.

What do you know that I don’t……………..nothing……………..only what your eyes have seen.

I try not to blink……………I see the Truth……………..clouds quickly cover the moon.

Small child bends forward on knees……………….encountering mud………………..dry dust blows all around him.

I lived for a long time……………….thought I knew it all………………the present moment comes into focus.

A dream is wildly exciting…………….I am startled by noise……………..frost forms lacy patterns on glass.

Believe nothing of what you hear……………..half of what you read………………what you see could be a mirage.

I pull back tightly on my bow……………..arrows fly unaware……………….surprised rabbit colors fresh snow.

Love and fear………….


There are more things……………..in heaven and earth…………Horatio……….than are dreamt of in your philosophy…………….Hamlet.

Yoda said…………fear is the path to the dark side…………..fear leads to anger………….anger leads to hate…………..hate leads to suffering……………..imagine that………….Truth from a muppet!

Gandhi taught me…………..though God may be Love…………….God is Truth above all…………..even the atheists………..who have pretended to disbelieve in God………….have believed in Truth.

Get a life…………..and save the universe……………..what can I do, only one person?……………starts inside, you can’t make anyone else do it……………..use the power.

I’ve seen it…………..the ultimate Power of the universe…………..that four letter word…………..Love…………when they say…………..go with the flow……………it means the flow of God’s Love and Truth.

Hair peace or whatever……………don’t care what you call it……………..love is the juice that runs the world…………..love is the drug got a hook on me.

Try it and see…………..just gotta remember…………..like mom…………….she always had your love for you huh?…………..read I Corinthians 13…………..faith, hope and love……………the greatest of these is love.

What do you want to do……………..before you die?…………….better hurry……………before you miss it…………..you’re just one in a crowd…………..love in motion………….no promises……………don’t forget…………..it’s the best way…………….the way of the universe…………..the way of harmony.

It’s all been said before…………..I’ll try not to forget…………..and as for you………….these are but wild and whirling words, my lord.

The big lie…………..


Just because you believe something………………doesn’t make it true……………..truth is self-evident……………..you can however……………….be fooled……………..isn’t that true?

The greatest asset of evil…………….is the lie…………….from our ignorance……………..and free will…………..we choose what to believe………………isn’t that true?

Where we find the truth…………….we also find un-truth…………….good and evil are often found together……………….confusion is not the truth……………..isn’t that true?

God is Truth…………..God is Love……………..where there is falsehood……………where there is confusion……………..where there is hate…………….this is not of God……………isn’t that true?

Lucifer’s greatest deception……………..is turning a lie………………into the truth……………..the greatest lie is…………….making the world believe that he doesn’t exist…………….isn’t that true?

The red devil……………with horns and pointed tail…………….red trident in his hands…………….is what we all imagine…………….but Lucifer was an archangel…………….isn’t that true?

God is Truth…………..God is Love………………actions without Truth and Love………………are not of God……………God’s Law means living in Truth and Love…………….isn’t that true?

When we people of earth…………….begin to live in Truth and Love……………..judge our actions by these standards……………..we will see the beginning of Paradise……………..isn’t that true?

This is a photograph……………..of a thirty-six inch rock on the beach…………….isn’t that true?………….est!

Row your boat………..


Row, row, row your boat…………….gently down the stream……………..merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily……………life is but a dream.

Remember singing……………together in rhythmic refrains…………..the melodious chorus………….a silly childs song…………..always sounded so beautiful…………..Gandhi said, that all truths, not merely ideas, but truthful faces, pictures, or songs, are highly beautiful.

Truth is everywhere…………find the truth and beauty……………philosophy of the obvious.

Row, row, row your boat……………chop wood, carry water……………Zen masters say……………everyday life is the way…………..live, be, exist…………….follow the path……………in the service of the One.

Gently down the stream……………you’re on a river of time that is your life…………..we only have so much time…………….it’s inevitable, so take it easy and enjoy the ride……………do a little good along the way.

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily………….have a good time……………don’t worry, be happy…………..do good things…………….reap the rewards of a life well spent.

Life is but a dream……………if God takes care of the birds of the air and the flowers of the fields, He certainly will take care of His children……………….I don’t know what happens after I die………….I think everything will be alright.

Truth and tolerance………..


God is the Light of the world…………….in the Light the truth is illuminated………………the Light is the truth……………God is Truth………………to seek the Truth is to seek God.

Tolerance……………to allow to be……………..is what we are all allowed………………to be………………God’s precious gift to us all……………..return the favor.

Truth is……………..and is not………………..an absolute………………your perspective will have a lot to do with that………………truth is…………….it’s all relative.

Truth is…………….we have all been allowed to exist……………..with what bold arrogance……………..would you challenge…………….the Truth?

Truth is…………….it just is……………..it is with……………or without……………our acceptance……………..be honest…………….how much do you really know?

Truth is…………….you’re not ready for the truth……………..it would be entirely overwhelming………….the Light of Truth……………..will burn your eyes.

Truth is……………an open mind…………….is the doorway……………….to the still, small voice…………….of the Truth…………….humble yourself……………..and hear the voice of God.

Truth is……………only in God’s Light……………..will the Truth become clear to us……………be still and quiet……………open your eyes…………….and every day you will see…………….one hundred million miracles.

Devotion to Truth is the sole justification for our existence……………..Tolerance gives us spiritual insight………….which is as far from fanaticism as the north pole is from the south…………..Mahatma Gandhi.

Imagine a dreamer…………


You may say I’m a dreamer…………….But I’m not the only one……………..listen to John Lennon……………..Imagine.

Imagine all the world………………small blue oasis……………..Above us only sky……………alone in the night…………….we have only eachother…………….it’s up to us.

Imagine all the people…………….Living for today………….putting a stop to………………pollution of our Earth and minds too.

Imagine we’re all……………..in the same boat…………..sink or float………………it’s up to us.

Imagine nothing to kill……………or die for……………..what’s wrong with your world?……………..from here it don’t look so great.

Imagine all the people…………….Living life in peace……………..is that so hard to do?……………..why not try it now……………..let’s all do it right now.

Imagine…………….No need for greed…………..an evil vice…………….is the money machine getting out of hand?………….what’s more valuable……………..people or cash?

Imagine no hunger…………..we have the resources…………….we have only to find the will……………who will care……………about the Brotherhood of man?

Imagine all the people……………Sharing all the world……………who gave it to you anyway……………..you’re just renting………………you’ll be gone in a short while.

You may say I’m a dreamer………………But I’m not the only one……………….I hope someday you’ll join us……………And the world will live as one…………………John Lennon.

Be child like…………


I saw naked children……….running on the beach………joyously soaking in the sun………..oblivious to the seemingly important.

Left with only the now……….we become aware of the moment.

Clearly seeing the present………life reveals its miracle………neatly arranged dominos………all ready to fall.

Evolution or intelligent design………universal law or fate……..chaos or miracle………see it all.

Didn’t you know…….there is no past……..there is no future……..there is only the eternal now.

Be childlike……..be here now………everything else is a dream.

Remember when they punished Galileo……….for telling the truth?……..Question authority………tell the truth.

You were a child………the bliss……..a kiss of wind……..the sun warm……..gentle sounds……….river of living in your eyes……..a steady flow………the eternal now.

Don’t worry……..be in the now……..choose well……..be childlike……..all your life………be childlike.

Looking for answers………..


It’s all in your mind………….it starts there………..what you think is what you are……….think good things.

You are the most powerful person in the world……….what will you do with such power……….think good things.

To make it happen……………starts with a thought……………think good things……………good things will happen……………think good things.

Faith is strength…………….hope is strength……………be strong, make good choices…………..there is power in your thoughts……………think good things.

There is a battle between light and dark…………..in the light we see the truth……………in the dark we languish in ignorance.

We all seek the same things…………….life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness………………we are all the same under the skin…………..working together we can do anything.

Only our fear keeps us from the light…………..only two levels above death…………..acceptance and sharing…………..accept the truth…………..share your life…………….with those around you.

How will I know the truth from the lies?………………you ask yourself……………..all I can tell you is that rocks are hard…………..water is wet.

The bad man………..


I am afraid of the bad man……………the bad man is afraid of me…………….I am the bad man.

Dark thoughts cloud the eye……………light is there and not seen……………..afraid to move.

Nothing from nothing……………no “hope” of rescue…………….my self is lost in a hole too deep.

I am responsible……………..for every person on this planet……………how can I save you all?

I need you…………….not your help…………….your presence, your thoughts, your need, your love.

All together now………….all together now……………all together now…………….love.

I am the bad man……………within you………………without you.

Who wants peace……………


Life is unfair everyone will tell you……………..what we do in the few short years we have……………constitute the matrix of human future………….like ants on a anthill………….we……….all of us…………collectively determine our direction as a whole.

Who wants peas……………pass the mashed potatoes…………….I’ll take a leg………….we share a meal…………with the ones we love.

We share our lives………….that’s how we LIVE our lives…………..pass our love on………….procreate………..start over………….do it again.

Share the love………….everyone belongs to the whole………….all one…………what hurts one, hurts all…………one body………..the One.

Greed beyond reason………….the panic from fear…………drives our foolish eyes over the cliff………….unthinking, we suffer the fate of our ignorance.

Fear not…………together is an answer………….Governing Dynamic shines a light………….see how together we are more………..the One.

Strive for self…………AND………..group………….gain the possible paradise…………born with nothing, can’t take it with you………….everything a gift………….a wonderous thought.

So why not make the choice…………..serve your best interests………….serve the One………..pay it forward…………you were given a life, a gift………….you owe it to yourself.
