Bargain Hunters

 

Me seeking a bargain.

What keeps the "Wal Mart" phenomenon going?

 The global sweatshop. the trans-Pacific supply chain and bargain hunters.

Be Prepared

I have read that the nearest star to our own star (the sun)

 is only 25 trillion miles away.

Where we are

Where we come from, where we are and where we will be.

Where we come from:

Consciousness from previous lifetimes as a sentient being:

karmic imprints and disturbing emotions.

Where we are:

Consciousness in this life as a human being: 

genetic inheritance from parents, time in present body,

health, environment, experience, motivation, activity.

Where we will be:

Consciousness in future lives as a sentient being:

mental phenomena taken from this and past lives.

+++ 

(And some useful definitions for me.)

Consciousness = Mind
Tantra = Continuum of consciousness/mind-stream

(The above ideas from the Buddhist way simply seem true to me. TW.)

Illusions

Starship

"Marconi plays the mambo,

Listen to the radio.

Don't you remember?

We built this city

on rock and roll!

...looking for America

coming through your schools."
