Mindfulness in Zen

Spring comes with its flowers, autumn with the moon,
summer with breezes, winter with snow;
when useless things don't stick in the mind,
that is your best season.

The spring flowers, the autumn moon;
Summer breezes, winter snow.
If useless things do not clutter your mind,
You have the best days of your life.

Hundreds of spring flowers; the autumnal moon;
A refreshing summer breeze; winter snow;
Free thy mind of all idle thoughts,
And for thee how enjoyable every season is!

Hundreds of flowers in the spring, the moon in the autumn,

The world has made such comet-like advance
Lately on science, we may almost hope,
Before we die of sheer decay, to learn
Something about our infancy; when lived
That great, original, broad-eyed, sunken race,
Whose knowledge, like the sea-sustaining rocks,

Vril, The Power of the Coming Race

Legendary for his turgid prose ("it was a dark and stormy night...") Bulwer-Lytton's pioneering science fiction novel "Vril" was taken very seriously by 19th Century Atlantis fans (for instance, Scott-Elliot). Vril is a mysterious energy which is used by Lytton's subterranian race (refugees from the Deluge) to power their advanced civilization; it was later treated as a reality by occultists. The plot of this book was recycled for numerous 'B' pulp scifi movies and assorted crank theories.

But there's a dome of nobler span,
A temple given
Thy faith, that bigots dare not ban --
Its space is heaven!
It's roof star-pictured Nature's ceiling,

The Shakers

The Shakers were a unique Christian group who fled persecution in England, arriving in America in the 18th Century. They believed that their founder, Ann Lee, was the second coming of Christ. The Shakers believed that God had both male and female aspects, and practiced equality of men and women at all levels in their organization. They were one of the first churches in America to integrate their congregations, involving both Blacks and Native Americans from the very start.

9/11/2001: A REMEMBRANCE

One of the few good things that came out of the 9/11 tragedy was a high-water mark for unity and religious tolerance in the United States. At gatherings small and large Christians, Jews, Muslims and others jointly offered prayers for the dead and for world peace. In many communities, people of all faiths stood vigil to protect mosques. This outpouring of ecumenical support far outweighed the few random attacks on Muslims. And Muslims worldwide condemned the attacks as a distortion of Islam. This is worth remembering in light of subsequent events.
