Jon ...thanks.. it speaks of our short comings in a very poetic way.. 

For the record.. regarding the other series of posts.. in the end I felt sad..  I felt that series was one of the best I have been able to participate in even though my participation was listening..... What had me get sad was to many decided to take another's individual comments regarding a personal process preference personal as if it were a slam to them.. I could not find one instance of that truly taking place except apparently in ones own interpretation of a statement. Maybe we get to narrow at times in our thought process.. under standing and forgiveness. I respect that many of the posters have worked long and hard at evolving their process.. We all do this at different levels.. that is just how it is.. Sorry to use Tyler as an example but I'm afraid I must.. When he said a particular process sucked to him.. How is it that was taken personal.?. Can we not see that all he meant was to him that process sucked.. He could not do it that because that is not his statement . If we are unsure of what he meant why can we not simply ask? Many of you are apparently angry at Tyler and a couple of others.. Sadly I feel incomplete.. Tyler now has to evaluate how he participates as does a few others. Admittedly, even though I'm older then dirt I'm a junior member here ... I'm sitting with that I'm not a lawyer and only know what I know and I'm just used to saying it.. what I also know is that I'm very hungry to learn and experience more. I can only hope that one day I'm able to get as fixed in my path as some of you... In the same breath however ....out of my inexperience I can truly see their are many paths to take ...The one I choose will be the one that works best for me.. I can only hope that the little boy that still is very much inside me helps me see that whatever way I choose will be the language that I choose to communicate with.. but that it is also not the only language.. I hope I never get to caught up or unforgiving... because then I will stop seeing.. I fear that..

  My wife shared this meditation with me this morning, and I wish to share it with those who might receive it in the manner it is intended...Jon Cone

  "When a man looks at the ocean, he can only see that part of it which comes within his range of vision; so it is with the truth."


  "All beliefs are simply degrees of clearness of vision. All are part of one ocean of truth. The more this is realized the easier is it to see the true relationship between all beliefs, and the wider does the vision of the one great ocean become. Limitations and boundaries are inevitable in human life; forms and conventions are natural and necessary; but they none the less separate humanity. It is the wise who can meet one another beyond these boundaries."

  Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan
