School of Time and Action

School of Time and Action

To be engaged in the moment is what I so long for
To be lost in the Song for what else is the song for

To ride the winds of life by signs and songs oh great joy
To ride the mind with optimal energetic engagement
To know the essence of freshness and its vast profundity

Two hawks in the wind disguised as flittering autumn leaves
Appearance and Reality
Comfort and Death
Knowledge and Delusion
With and Without
Duality and Non-Duality
The Seen and Unseen
Which is Which
   and how the Knowledge of Concept Veils the Inconceivable
Truth Veils Truth
Thought Veils Non-thought

Food and Survival and War and Conquest
Focus depends on situation and perceived needs

Kindness for all realms   Streams of offerings and blessings
From scatter to focus to scatter to focus

Lonely words wander through the pages of the mind
Knowers of meanings linger into the future
Meaninglessness tempers the One artist and art
Songs and Dreams and histories of actions
These are mere means of Untangling the Knotted past
Watch tendency and preference and see Time

Emulate the Sages   Find their trails and Travel
Know too the Mages  and the Worlds they Unravel

Give and Encourage Song
Accept and Acknowledge Song
Give Courage
Accept Knowledge

Sing for the Spirits but Remember not to mock them
For they will exact due retribution
But from these Ordeals come Knowledge
Accept It
