-- "The first principle is that when the mind is calm, defective views disappear all by themselves. All illusions disperse once we reach a state of calmness. Since all activities originate from the oblivion of the reality of the divine Absolute, starting from the mind and onward all the way to the entire cosmos. In this way, our original, timeless, absolute nature reveals itself to itself. Any other attempt to remove illusions or reach our true nature is always the activity of our mind and ego. The conclusion is that we only go round in circles, along the path line of the contents of our mind."
— Ivan Antic, Meditation, pg 141

Touching the back side of fire,
My camp packs up
And sells out
And buys the top
F
L
O
O
R
Of the
Tallest building;
The misers
Stoke desires
There,
Seducing
Loose truths and
Tight nooses
Hanging out the windows -
Rope ladders -
For the dead
To climb up,
Heads down.
