Surfing with Wind

[Wind]

"The Buddhist text, Visuddhi Magga, declares there is Nirvana but no one who realizes it, that there is a way but not he who goes thereby."

"What or who is seeking enlightenment? It cannot be the higher Self, for that is itself of the nature of Light. There then only remains the ego! This ego, the object of so many denunciations and denigrations, is the being that, transformed, will win truth and find Reality even though it must surrender itself utterly in the end as the price to be paid."

"No man is excluded from that first touch of Grace which puts him upon the Quest. All may receive it and, in the end, all do. But we see everywhere around us the abundant evidence that he will not be ready for it until he has had enough experience of the world, enough frustration and disappointment to make him pause and to make him humbler."

"The universe comes, exists, goes, comes again, and repeats this cycle. Man does the same until he breaks the illusion of common experience and penetrates into the reality behind it all and behind himself."

Seems the word Nirvana means (in some translations ) Annihilation ----of the self/me.
Death of the illusion of separation--a separate me. Then the natural state is ---Love and joy.

"The very idea of a quest involves a passage, a definite movement from one place to another. Here, of course, the passage is really from one state to another. It is a holy journey, so he who is engaged on it is truly a pilgrim. And as on many journeys, difficulties, fatigues, obstacles, delays, and allurements may be encountered on the way, yes! And here there will certainly be dangers, pitfalls, oppositions, and enmities too. His intuition and reason, his books and friends, his experience and earnestness will constitute themselves as his guide upon it. There is another special feature to be noted about it. It is a homeward journey. The Father is waiting for his child. The Father will receive, feed, and bless him."

Spent some more time with the lyrics from 'Sam Beam and Jesca Hoop - Every Songbird Says'

Tell me these are not some of the most powerful lyrics penned to a song:

I get lost, I get lost a lot and you meet me there
I can close my eyes and find you anywhere
I can hold you close while you wonder free

Get lost
Wonder free
I will find you anywhere

Gloomy clouds and a storm has sweeped into my consciousness today.

And then this appeared




Is it still swimming if I can touch the bottom?
