Edvard Grieg

Morning

 

Edvard Hagerup Grieg (/ ษกriหษก / GREEG, Norwegian: [หˆษ›dvษ‘ษ– หˆhษ‘หษกษ™rส‰p หˆษกrษชษกห]; 15 June 1843 - 4 September 1907) was a Norwegian composer and pianist. He is widely considered one of the leading Romantic era composers, and his music is part of the standard classical repertoire worldwide.

I didn't hear any of the lyrics. The growly vocal style struck me instantly I don't know any other way to put it, demonic?, which is why switched it off quickly. Careful what kind of content creeps into my dreams.

 

I will listen to Dragonforce. Spouseanon knows & likes them, he says Fire and Flames is their best and Fury of the Storm is 2nd best. I've probably never heard either. We each listen with headphones, kek.

Percussion all 32nd notes or faster. Jamming as many simultaneous sounds onto the audio canvas as possible. Inelegant. If the listener wants to increase their pulse rate, this might be good for that.

Flow like the river.

*

Be at peace, my frens,

For your efforts are worthy.

*

Open to the flow.

Let it happen, let it go.

Let it fill you.

You are eternal spirit.

*

In the quiet, in the roar,

In this moment evermore,

I can hear you.

In the stillness, in the power,

In this neverending hour,

I can feel you.

As a tiny molecule tumbled in the flow,

Embrace the moment.

There you go.

And the spirit rides you.

The spirit hides you.

You understood the truth.

From first moments of your youth

In the breath of the heart

In the flow, from the start

There you go.

Burning lava like a crown

Spirit fire, come on down!

Holy pressure, will I drown!?

In the sorrow, in the glory,

Eternal moment, endless story.

There you go.

The Israelites of Jesus time were worldly and legalistic, not spiritually minded. They believed the messiah was supposed to be an earthly king who would save them from political oppression by the Romans. That's why they put the sign mocking him. They missed the point entirely.

 

Not going to engage in religious debate here. Disagree with many of your comments, but would take a lot of effort to explain why, that I'm not ready to put in right now.

<3 Still love you fren

Idolatry means elevating anything that is not (the) God. At the time the OT was written the tribes had all kinds of things they worshipped, which in the Bible are often referred to with lower case G as 'gods'. They were considered 'gods' by the people who worshipped them, but they were not capital G God.

Today there is all kinds of idolatry going on, worship of carnal pleasures, money, material success as society defines it, of anything physical/material that takes people away from what they should be paying attention to.

I said I wasn't getting into it, didn't I. Kek.

Eating early dinner.

Always eat at the keyboard anymore.

Used to be such a tidy individual, kek.

Q has turned me into a slobovore.

>The Zionist believe they should OWN and Destroy the Goyim for their god says it is so, For they are His Chosen peopleโ€ฆ

They understand wrong. God's people are the people who are faithful to God. The OT Israelites had a chance to be faithful and they blew it. God still wants them to turn around and become faithful. But as Paul wrote in the NT, the gentiles were grafted onto that tree like a wild olive grafted onto a root stock.

>Obedience to whom is virtuous?

If there really is a God who created us all, and everything around us, then being disobedient to Him would be a big mistake.

>The Israelites of Jesus time were worldly and legalistic, not spiritually minded.

โ€ฆand still are.

They believe the OT is purely history, not allegory/symbolism. I have debated with Jews and learned how they view their scriptures. That's why God said they are a stiff-necked people. Stiff-necked means arrogant and stubborn, won't bow their heads when appropriate.

Yes, seriously wish we could all engage in normal conversations voice to voice and person to person.

Have a nice dinner! We had leftover rice with refried beans and home made fresh pico de gallo and some uncured beef hot dogs grilled in the iron frying pan. And ice cream.

Very nice.

We have crows here.

They are very big.

They lurk, and watch, for the birdseed to be thrown for the little birds.

Then they swoop in.

We have some crow stories illustrating their intelligence. To be told verbally, one day.

Cello Quintet by Olivier Messaien

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivier_Messiaen

Pretty interesting guy. Musical prodigy, prisoner of war, musical innovator.

Since we are speaking of mysticism. His flavor was Catholic mysticism.

(Edit: Some of his works are extremely long - hours long - i picked some shorter ones never heard before because they are short. Kek.)

One more by Messaien.

 

My thoughts after morning walk. Always seems to clear up the mind a bit and allow for insights.

We are here at 8kun, /abcu/, etc. because we crave Truth. WE are PASSIONATE about Truth. We understand that Truth is hard to find and that many claim to have a handle on it, only to be in conflict with others who also claim to have a handle.

 

How much of Truth is objective? Subjective? Is it even possible to convey a Subjective Truth to another person? If they experience a subjective truth that they say is the same as ours, is it really the same? Is there any way to know?

I think that Together, we have the possibility to uncover more Truth than individually. So I LOVE hearing what each has to say. Because each has different experiences that are valid to them.

 

Messaien was seeking truth in his way, just as we are seeking it each in ours way.

>IF you feel the need to tell to teach and someone will listen you are a teacher and scholar to that person.

I make no claims.

If something I say is useful to a person, I am happy. At once point in my life I took a lifelong vow as a "Dharma Teacher". No longer a Buddhist. But still sleep on the floor, kek. And some of their teaching has been valuable to me.

 

Our thinking is largely congruent, fren @babyfist. We are PASSIONATE about these matters because what could be more central than the question of why are we here, what are we supposed to do, how to do it, what is REALLY going on, etc etc etc. We use language to the best of our ability, recognizing that it always falls short.

 

What if the multiverse theory is correct? Current physics (grain of salt) says it is correct. What if when the Bible or other scriptures talks of 'heaven' or 'higher realms' or 'enlightenment' or 'eternal life' or โ€ฆ (fill in the blanks) โ€ฆ it is talking about something real, concrete, but currently inaccessible to us, where there does exist a path to access it. What if the events described in the Bible and other texts are 3-dimensional 'shadows' of real events occurring in a timeless realm called heaven? Understanding changes quite a bit when one assumes that God/heaven is a timeless realm, outside of time, that casts shadows/ripples upon the 3D canvas we are currently stuck in. Many shadows of the same heavenly event, scattered across our timeline. That would explain why "prophecy" seems to be fulfilled in past historical time, while also predicting future events, and possibly displaying many partial fulfillments. If they are only shadows vaguely seen by us.

 

What blocks the light from that timeless eternal realm, in order that shadows be cast upon our 3D? Is the thing blocking the heavenly light good or bad? If we did not have the shadows would we be totally lost? Or would we be bathed in that light?

 

Light - Dark - what are they

It is fun to listen to.

Reminds a bit of 1960s pop or 1980s disco.

Like Petula Clark singing Downtown.

Man, that brings back memories of the 1965 World's Fair.

A Kong-An for anons

  1. "Sentient beings are numberless, I vow to save them all." (or free) -Great Bodhisattva Vow of Buddhism.

  2. "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself." - Jesus. Speaking in Matthew 22:37-39

 

Same or different?

If you say same, this stick hits you 3 times.

If you say different, this stick hits you 3 times.

Don't make two. Only go straight - don't know.
