If you want to make God laugh

If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans. This is a quote from Woody Allen, I believe the original is an old Yiddish proverb “We plan, God laughs.” but you get the idea. The Present Moment is the only timeframe that isn’t annoying. But even the Present Moment is not abiding. The Past is focused typically on the negative. The Future is completely unpredictable. In the Present at least you can generate Bliss. What happened to my education that Hermetica just got relegated to Magic instead of Platonic Orientalism? Apparently something had gone missing. In theory just sitting in meditation can be your minimalism. Being unattached to things you actually exist? The rustling wind can be your stand in for the Holy Spirit. You can replace church doctrine with actual experience. Life typically turns out tragic. But apparently you can just have a couch in a ten foot square room and still entertain others and eat by just smelling the fragrance of the food. If you thoroughly (Henry David Thoreau-ly) detach then you might last. I pray to me to have Grace upon myself by sitting in meditation. I could do Simran until I laugh. How can meditation ever be remember by Mind when it occurs in No-Mind. My synthetic death is not a bluff. You can become increasingly tough. You can exploit the opportunity to experience enlightenment daily. You can increase your appetite for just light. The secret door is just the front of your head. My advice is persistent training.
