	Section 1. Eye Openers...
1
	The still earth turns like a giddy goat. There are many ways to spiritual Joy. Not all involve sitting still. A child runs. Nightingales sing. Sufis whirl. One of the world's oldest meditations from Aboriginal Australia circles round & round.
2
	Creativity is the ground we stand on, at the heart of economic drivers like advertising & marketing. Picasso's art inspired camouflage. We forget God is like a child. At our peril we forget God is like a child.
3
	Up & down do not stay up & down. Yesterday's Seabed is the peak of Earth's highest mountains. The nerds bullied in school often rule.
4
	We are so clever we trick ourselves out of the good, the honest, the satisfying. And so we no longer have sunsets, time for laughter, space for joy.
5
	To become truly big I must become truly little again. Put aside my limousine, pour out the champagne. The curious mind invents. The grateful heart multiplies the treasures it has.
6
	So small the skull is, but the brain has shifted mountains, spanned continents, if... it retains a child's joy...
7
	Sometimes just one such day in a month, sometimes one such day in a month, sometimes one such day in a lifetime are all we need... To stay sane...
8
	It doesn't stop when it stops.
	Section 2. Impaled by The Light
9
	One of the reasons why Lord Buddha is said to have left the comfort of his home is to wrestle with the question of death.
10
	Why is the smile in the sun a the slippery slope? Because it is the beginning of creation it is the beginning of God's separation from God. It is seed leaving the tree. Some ask us why are we born? The answer is simple, because we are smiles in the sun.
11
	We await the sunset. We all await the sunset.
12
	Is Laughter the seeker's ultimate weapon?
13
	We are thieves. It is not our fault we are thieves. We do not catch our own sun like the trees, or gather our own stardust like stone. We can be kind thieves. Or we can be unkind thieves. Or we can try press the reset button. gratitude totenpack
14
	How bear it? How not hear it?
15
	If we are pimples, let us be the most humungous pimples ever.
16
	The barbed wire? We put it there.
17
	Forewarned is not always forearmed.

	Section 3. Chasing God
22
	He is here. Rusting among the dry grass.
23
	We always forget the most important direction. Inward. Inward that is also Outward.
24
	Why do we have to lose ourselves to find ourselves? Howelse?
25

26
	We have 11 energy bodies. Our universe has 55,000 sub levels. 12 Meta dimensions separate our universe from the Cosmic Core. Or is it 17?
27
	Practise your insolence. Practise getting kicked for your insolence. Practise getting rewarded for your innocence.
	The Oddities of God
28
	We create our own reality. We create a dynamic reality. A stimulating reality. An enriching reality. A rejoicing reality. And that's very different from a curl up in the bed reality.
29
	At a certain point, the future does not follow the past. So what does it follow? Its Joy?
30
	Across a world we can heal. A thought here a Tsunami there. Oddly scientists say the same thing. Chaos theorists speak of the flap of butterfly wing in Tampa that births a cyclone in Tokyo.
31

32
	God wears a watch. It's borrowed from Salvador Dali.
33
	According to the physicist gravity binds the universe. According to us mystics the cosmos is a singularity. What I do here can shift there. A reassuring thought. and disturbing reality.
34
35
	We are shadows. We are whispers of promises we do not always plan to keep.
	The Seeker's Ganges...
36
	Thankfully Talking to God is usually a one-way street. When it becomes a two way street then it becomes really interesting for God.
37
	Like all fine-sounding promises we have to wait and see.
38
	Will the debate between the hallucination theorists and the elusive reality propounders ever cease?
39
	The ultimate secret of awakened living is revealed by the glow worm. If it were revealed by the ultimate in the ultimate way would we go blind, catch fire. Or???
40
	I have Dear God but little to offer, but Dear God it is yours.
41
	There is an End to The Journey.
42
	Read. Reread.Rereread. Live it. Love it. Be it.

	Dear seekers eternity salutes our courage & foolishness, our faith and faithlessness...
	I dedicate this Big-little book to Celia, Amma, Buffy, Talitha, Tambi, Gozga, Lady Izreatong, Lord Zol & Lord YaZumma...And the dragonflies, breezes, rivers, raindrops, oceans and breezes that lifted my eyes into the dizzying skies...
