  2. Only 2 Hands – A guided meditation as a poem

    I only have two hands.
    The world is beyond my control.
    The world has always been beyond my control.
    The world will always be beyond my control.
    The world does not depend on me.
    Is okay and natural that the world is beyond my control.
    There was a time when I was not in the world, there
    will be a time again when I am not in the world.
    The world does not depend on Me,
    and that is a wonderful thing.
    I only have two hands,

    I only have two hands,
    but I have two hands.
    This is the most amazing gift.
    I am alive and I am aware
    with these hands, I can make the world kinder, healthier and livelier.
    With these hands, I can make the world harsher, angry, violent,
    but the world goes on with or without me.

    I only have one voice,
    but I have a voice,
    and that is the most Amazing thing.
    I am awake and I am alert.
    With this voice,
    I can make the world wise fascinating and beautiful.
    With this voice, I can make the world confusing or true,
    false or clear,
    a travesty or an equity.
    But the world goes on With or without me.

    I only have one lifetime in this form,
    this form with two feet,
    this form with two hands,
    this form with one voice,
    this form with this mind,
    the moss goes on without me.
    The ants go on without me.
    The trees go on without me.
    The sun burns on without me.

    I cannot direct the affairs of the world.
    I cannot direct the turning of the earth.
    I cannot direct the tides of the oceans.
    I cannot scrap and recreate my life circumstance,
    but I can steer my life’s flow.
    The affairs of the world are beyond my control, and always will be.
    But I can mold the process of my living experience
    When I am aware of how I shape my living experience, I create better results.

    I cannot direct the affairs of the world,
    just as I cannot direct the weaving of every spider’s web,
    but participating with others in co creation.
    I can still cultivate change in the natural world.
    I can still cultivate change in the human world.
    I have the realization that the natural world is real and fundamental.
    I have the realization that the human world cannot be separated from the natural world.
    I have the realization that the human world is an organic flowering of the natural world.

    I have the realization also that the natural world goes on without the human world,
    just as the human world goes on without me.
    The world is not conditioned on people,
    just as it is not conditioned on my existence.
    I am alive, awake, aware and alert.
    I have the realization that this life is a precious gift.
    I resolve and aspire to appreciate this gift and spend it wisely.

    The final bell is In 60 seconds.
    Thank you for listening to only two hands, a meditation by Cooper Dozier.

    [ Intro I removed so it reads like a poem:

    Only two hands. By Cooper Dozier. A bell will ring before each speaking part. This meditation is 23 minutes long. The silences in between speaking parts are about 90 to 100 seconds long. There is no requirement to follow the meditation as presented. Feel free to take any path that appears to you. I hope we all have a fruitful exploration. Settle in. The first bell will ring in 30 seconds. Loosen up and stretch your joints if you like. Try to take a comfortable posture which you can hold. Should you encounter mental or emotional difficulties? Feel free to open your eyes. Take a break or stop if needed. ]

  4. Stuff your eyes with wonder... live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.
    -- Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451)

  5. And no, I'm not the only one who has ever thought about it....
    But as the intercontinentalrailway.com railway webpage states:
    "technological, geopolitical, and financial challenges thwarted its construction time and time again”

    the tech and the finances are available. What still eludes us are the geopolitical conditions.

  6. If the world wasn't so full of greedy, idiotic, assholes we could have ultra high speed zero-emission electric trains connecting North America and Asia and we wouldn't need to pollute the skies or the seas.

    🤝

    We probably burn more fuel in a day with all the air traffic in the world than it would take to build the entire railway from Prince George or Edmonton through Fairbanks, across the Bering Sea/Land Bridge and on to Yakutsk, Moscow, and Beijing.

    It's such a shame, you know?

  7. RE: mastodon.social/@hananmahmoudg

    The suffering is still ongoing💔💔💔
    I urgently need $280 to buy a battery for these dark nights, where insects surround us and the darkness becomes unbearable. Any support can help provide light, reduce fear, and make these nights a little less painful for me and my family. Please don’t forget my struggle. Even sharing my story could make a difference. 🙏🥺🇵🇸

    Every night feels heavier than the one before🥺💔💔
    I urgently need $280 for a battery so we can have light during these endless dark nights filled with insects, fear, and exhaustion. Even a small donation can bring safety, comfort, and hope to my family. Please don’t ignore my suffering or let my story be forgotten. If you can’t donate, sharing this may help save us. 🙏

  9. Remember to Keep Laughing

    I’m watching holes being punched in democracy, and I don’t like it. At the same time, my father is sending nature notes from the beach.

    /headline

    Pigeons, house finches

    /headline

    Black-backed gulls

    The headlines are important. 

    /headline

    Willets

    The headlines mark a world changing in ways that will hurt the people and things I care about. That’s… not great.

    /headline

    Sanderlings

    /headline

    Osprey

    But there is more to the world than just headlines.

    Pelicans, herring gulls, terns, mockingbird, starlings, boat-tailed grackles, house sparrows, swallows, dolphins!

    Laughing gulls.

  10. The real trouble with this world of ours is not that it is an unreasonable world, nor even that it is a reasonable one. The commonest kind of trouble is that it is nearly reasonable, but not quite. Life is not an illogicality; yet it is a trap for logicians. It looks just a little more mathematical and regular than it is; its exactitude is obvious, but its inexactitude is hidden; its wildness lies in wait.
    -- G. K. Chesterton (Orthodoxy)

  11. Listening to the 3-part "Waco" series on CASEFILE podcast (my favorite true crime show). Learning so many details I hadn't known about this.

    I really wish I could see a world one day in the far future where religion is entirely behind us all.
