Poem:

You can enjoy the elevated privilege of just sitting by just getting up. You do not have to be Hakuin or a Buddhist. In just 40 days it can start to workout that is the approximate length of time needed to start a habit. You can eat a fragment of a spoonful. You may want to eat beans you do not have to listen to Pythagoras. It can become routine the re-conditioning of your brain. Man is not born awake and has to learn to channel his pranas. You can read your own poetry like you don’t know the person that wrote it. You can work as an auto-dictate of the muses. That is sort of like being a Taoist and just following the flow. You can augment the space in your head and just ignore the skin below. You can conquer death as a sort of service alert. Your willful direction can just be going to heaven. You can write in a journal and do introspection. The true Oedipal project is you have to become the Father. Your castration complex is you have to give up sex. If you get up at 5am and sit for five minutes you will find that in time you can change that to 3am for five hours. It is not necessary to have a lot of thought but just to sit like a dead tree log. You can transcend Freud with a spiritual process. The central mystery of the initiate is that he has something special and he is self-sufficient. He can be ultimately satisfied. The purpose of life could be just to give Simran a try. You can just lay Simran as the foundation stone and then move into the sound current and then enjoy the luxuries. If you cut off folly you can end up more jolly. As a way to simplify you could just become a monk that is enlightened.
