Poem:

Planning a materialistic activity and then it does not work out well is basically hell. Maybe you should just transcend the body and leave it to fate. By extending your meditation you can in effect have your bad karmas arrive late. Often times hate will dissipate. You can also enjoy celestial approval. 95% of your pleasure can come just from your head and just 5% from outside. People tend to do the opposite - look for 95% on the outside with only one infrequent yoga class. This is hopeless and achieves no critical mass. You need to be completely dead to refresh your head. This poetry is my contribution to eliminating illusion. DS poem July 25, 2018
