Stealth


So, tell me...
who has not been robbed.
No, I am not talking about being mugged
at the ATM machine.

For the thousandth time,
being robbed in the monetary means
is NOTHING
compared to being robbed
in a spiritual sense.

I will tell you this,...
if you will look at it this way...
a baby is robbed
of its natural state of "mind"
the very second
the baby is shown
that
one needs words to reciprocate in life.

Now, tell me,
what have YOU been robbed of?


"Intelligence is the inborn capacity to see,
to perceive.
Every child is born intelligent,
then made stupid by the society.
We educate him in stupidity,
and sooner or later
he graduates in stupidity."
-Osho

  1. "I believe in you my soul...

    I believe in you my soul, the other I am must not abase itself to you,
    And you must not be abased to the other.

    Loafe with me on the grass, loose the stop from your throat,
    Not words, not music or rhyme I want, not custom or lecture, not even the

    best,
    Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice."

    Walt Whitman

  2. "WILL there really be a morning?
    Is there such a thing as day?
    Could I see it from the mountains
    If I were as tall as they?

    Has it feet like water-lilies?
    Has it feathers like a bird?
    Is it brought from famous countries
    Of which I have never heard?

    Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!
    Oh, some wise man from the skies!
    Please to tell a little pilgrim
    Where the place called morning lies! "

    Emily Dickinson
