Songs unsung in harmony

Krishna’s song to humanity is found in The Bhagavad Gita.

Krishna and Radha wear each other’s clothes and become one. Sometimes the name, spoken in one breath, RadheKrishna is used. Radha was Krishna’s love, but they never married. Perhaps they were one, and perhaps prevented by Shridhama’s curse that she would lose her memory and forget all about him.

I Ching

I Ching, The Book of Changes, 64 hexagrams made from eight trigrams made fro m minor yang line. When you consult the I Ching you get a hexagram. Any one of the lines may be moving or non of the lines moving here may or may not be moving lines ,

Moving Yin lines become Yang lines and moving Yang lines become Yin lines Each hexgram has six possibilities of change from one moving line in hexagram Using the example of hexagram Hsiao Kuo, starting at line 1, bottom line, are examples of the changes. When the first line is moving Hsiao is becoming Feng, and so on. See how the visual feels, the interplay between Yin and Yang, as the hexagram changes.

Too many lines moving can become confusing but I Ching keeps it simple.

Alameda Creek

Since covad I have been everyday walking on the Alameda Creek levee.

A song is a group of notes with a beginning and an end.

A person’s life is like one long song, a group of notes with birth and death being the beginning and end.

With a song you can write it and practice it over and over until you get it right.

The song of a person’s life starts with no practice, no written notes, one day it just starts and one day it just ends.

You can sing songs in harmony with others and create a beautiful sound

There is a song of humanity, a song you can hear anytime if you listen, being sung by everyone at once.

With no rehearsing, and whether is little harmony, its a cacophoney.

Some songs are painful to hear so some people avoid listening to the song of humanity .

Its can be just as hard to listen to someone’s songs sadness as it is to hear someone’s songs of happiness.

But we still get up in the morning and sing it again.

We all have things we cannot hide and still we have to show them in public.

And learn to live with them.

Myself?, I needed to be pushed as if my eyes could not see.

My mother had a stroke, severe memory loss and expressive aphasia and lived in a memory care facility. We would see her everyday and when possible take her out for a walk. I cannot say for sure that mom knew I was her son, she just know I came every day.

My sister whole in Japan sent her cards every week. I cannot say that mom knew the cards were from her daughter but she was happy to get them and both the walk and the cards in the mail gave her a meaning.

Sometimes it may feel like you are singing your song and no one hears you . . .

Or someone hears you and puts a harmony on top.

I usually close with an image of myself, I see myself therefore I am.

So in emptiness there is no form;
no sensation, conception, discrimination, awareness;
no eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mind;
no color, sound, smell, taste, touch, phenomena;
no realm of sight, no realm of consciousness;
no ignorance and no end to ignorance,
no old age and death and no end to old age and death,
no suffering, no cause of suffering,
no extinguishing, no path, no wisdom, and no gain.
No gain and thus the bodhisattva lives Prajna Paramita,
with no hindrance in the mind; no hindrance, therefore no fear.
Heart Sutra Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva
