Way down upon Sycamore Slough
White man sings the blues
Selling roses of paper mache
And flecks of starlight dew
I swiped a bunch and threw them your way
Down where hazy moonlight glows
Way down, down along Lazy River Road
Way down upon Shadowfall Ward
End of the avenue
Run, hide, seek in your own backyard
Mama's backyard won't do
All night long I sing love's sweet songs
Down where the water flows
Way down, down along lazy river road
Moonlight wanes where hound dogs bay
Never quite catch the tune
Stars fall down in buckets like rain
Till there ain't no standin' room
Bright blue boxcars train by train
Clatter while dreams unfold
Way down, down along lazy river road
Way down upon Seminole Square
Belly of the river tide
Call for me and I will be there
For the price of a taxi ride
Nighttime double clutches into the day
Like a truck downshifting it's load
Way down, down along lazy river road
Moonlight wanes where hound dogs bay
Never quite catch the tune
Stars fall down in buckets like rain
Till there ain't no standin' room
Bright blue boxcars train by train
Clatter while dreams unfold
Way down, down along lazy river road
Thread the needle right through the eye
The thread that runs so true
All the others I let pass by I only wanted you
Never cared much for careless love
Oh how your bright eyes glow
Way down, down along lazy river road
About
Inisght from The historical Buddha Shakyamuni Buddha & His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The Middle-Way Marque.
"Don't look to me, but to the enlightened state."
"Monastics are instructed to be islands unto themselves."
" One of the most powerful visions I have ever experienced was the first photgraph of the earth from outer space. The image of a blue planet floating in space, glowing like the full moon on a clear night, brought home powerfully to me the recognition that we are indeed all members of a single family sharing one little house.
"I always sat that people should not rush to change religions. There is real value in finding the spiritual resources you need in your home religion. In fact it is thought that this practise has a far more profoundly powerful effect in the world as a whole"
I am open to the guidance of synchronicity, and do not let expectations hinder my path.
"This new concept ought to be elaborated alongside the religions, in such a way that all people of good will could adhere to it. We ought to promote this concept with the help of scientists. It could lead us to what we are looking for."
"What science finds to be nonexistent, we must accept as nonexcistent, but what science merely does not find is a completly different matter. ... It is quite clear that there are many, many, mysterious things."
"There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart. our own temples.This body is our temple; my philosophy is kindness."
"I think in our daily experience, daily life, when we develop strong emotions, then you can't see the reality we should practise using our Deitys represented in our thankas that make up our celestial gallery.
Emptiness should be understood in the context of dependent arising and it should invoke a sense of fullness, of things created by causes and conditions. We shouldn't think that self is something that is originally there and then eliminated in meditation; in fact, it is something that never existed in the first place.
weather without or within we should keep our heart true
