Simple life as manure baron of Sedona

  • When I left New York, I left a grand lifestyle. Then I put my tools in the back of my truck and drove away – free as a bird. I became the manure baron of Sedona, picking up a load of manure in Maguiresville and selling it in Sedona. Only reluc-
    tantly did I give up that simplicity […] [D]on't see it as poverty, see it as simplicity, and then you learn the lesson you needed and you release it. Then you may have to learn how to become a responsible steward [LoC 415].

Neither singularity nor multiplicity are real.

  • From the viewpoint of singularity, there appears to be multiplicity, but from the omnipresence of simultaneous multiplicity, there is only the singularity of oneness. Omnipresence obliterates any perceptual artifact of either singularity or multiplicity. In reality, neither condition exists. There is neither 'here' nor 'there'; there is neither 'now' nor 'then' there is neither 'past' nor 'future'; there is neither 'complete' nor 'incomplete, nor is there 'becoming' in that which is already and totally self-existent. Time itself is an arbitrary point of observation as is the speed of light. Our customary attempts to describe the universe can be seen not as a description of the universe but instead as a description of arbitrary points of observation and really as a map of how the ordinary mind works.
    Eye of the I From Which Nothing is Hidden, S. 16, Veritas Publishing, revised edition 2002

  • All spiritual truth is contained in every spiritual concept. It is only necessary to completely and totally understand one single concept to understand all of the in order to arrive at the realization of the real. The secret of success is to choose one concept or spiritual tool and pursue it with intensity, nonstop, to its ultimate end. It could be forgiveness or kindness carried to the absolute or it could be the third step from a "12 step" program.
    The Eye of the I From Which Nothing is Hidden, S. 367, 2001

 

  • The value of asceticism is that one discovers the capacity to be content and happy with only the barest minimum of essentials for survival. There is great joy in the realization that one does not actually need anything at all to be happy, not even external stimuli, such as television, music, conversation,
    or the presence of other people or activities. At a more advanced level, one learns that even the amusement of mental activity and thoughts can be dispensed with and that the awareness of existence itself is sufficient. There is an even greater happiness as the Self shines forth as the Allness that precludes all lack or otherness. There is then nothing
    left to desire and no source of desire because the Totality is complete in its identity as the Infinite 'I'.
    I. Reality and Subjectivity, S. 191, 2003

 

 


 

  • It is important to see the simple things because the ego is built of bricks. Once you remove one or two bricks the
    whole wall comes falling down. You don’t have to go to an ashram for three months and eat figs. Just the willing-
    ness in ordinary life to be kind and forgiving and compassionate is enough.
    Be kind and loving towards everything and everyone, in all circumstances. Choose benevolence over malevolence;
    choose forgiveness over condemnation. Choose to be that which nurtures life and to be aligned with integrity. These
    are the greatest simple things you can do.
    Interview Power vs. Force, presented by the US American magazine In Light Times, Kathryn M. Brinkley, November 2004

 

  • Question: What do you mean by the path of simplicity to reach enlightenment?
    Answer: For significant spiritual growth, only one simple tool is required. It is merely necessary to select any simple spiritual principle that is appealing and then proceed with its application, without exception, to every area of life, both within and without.
    For example, one could therefore choose kindness, compassion, forgiveness, understanding, or non-critical accep-
    tance. One could choose to be unconditionally loving or committed to seeing the innocence of life. Whatever principle
    is chosen then has to be applied to everyone, including oneself, without exception, and with absolute persistence.
    This process will bring about spiritual purification as the obstacles to these spiritual principles are brought up for exa-
    mination. Interview The Path of Simplicity, presented by the US American magazine In Light Times, March 2005

 

  • Question: [How does one reconcile the desire for highest spiritual growth and the desire to stay out of poverty?]
    Answer: What have you got against poverty? You are as free as a bird. You fulfill your potential to the greatest degree that you can fulfill it, and you draw to yourself that which eludes you if you seek it. And you can come to enjoy what people call poverty. All you need in the refrigerator is a slice of pizza. […] [D]on't see it as poverty, see it as simplicity, and then you learn the lesson you needed and you release it. Then you may have to learn how to become a respon-
    sible
    steward [LoC 415].
    [Paraphrased] [Your own self draws to it that which it should. All one needs is a piece of cheese and a sixpack of
    Pepsi. Poverty is NOT being un-wealthy. Enjoy simplicity.] Sedona Seminar Vision, 3 DVD set, 25. February 2005

Goethe verwendete diesen Satz in einem langen Brief an seine 18-jährige Schwester Cornelia

Inspiriert durch eine Briefzeile des römischen Philosophen Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 v. Chr.)

  • Da ich keine Zeit habe, Dir einen kurzen Brief zu schreiben, schreibe ich Dir einen langen.

  • Ehe unsere weißen Brüder kamen, um 'zivilisierte Menschen' aus uns zu machen,
    ➤ hatten wir keine Gefängnisse. Aus diesem Grund hatten wir auch keine Verbrecher.
         Ohne ein Gefängnis kann es keine Verbrecher geben.
    ➤ Wir hatten weder Schlösser noch Schlüssel, und deshalb gab es bei uns keine Diebe.
    ➤ Wenn jemand so arm war, das er kein Pferd, kein Zelt oder keine Decke besaß, so wurde ihm all dies geschenkt.
    ➤ Wir waren viel zu unzivilisiert, um großen Wert auf Privatbesitz zu legen.
         Besitz strebten nur an, um ihn weitergeben zu können.
    ➤ Wir kannten kein Geld, von daher wurde der Wert eines Menschen nicht nach seinem Reichtum gemessen.
    ➤ Wir hatten keine schriftlich verfassten Gesetze, keine Rechtsanwälte und keine Politiker, weswegen wir
         einander nicht betrügen konnten.
    Es stand wirklich 'schlecht um uns', ehe die Weißen kamen. Und ich kann es mir nicht erklären, wie wir ohne die grundlegenden Dinge auskommen konnten, die – wie man sagt – für eine zivilisierte Gesellschaft so notwendig
    sind.

Personal avowals

  • Before our white brothers arrived to make us civilized men,
    ➤ we didn't have any kind of [no] prison. Because of this, we had no delinquents. Without a prison, there can be no
         delinquents.
    ➤ We had no locks nor keys and therefore among us there were no thieves.
    ➤ When someone was so poor that he couldn't afford a horse, a tent or a blanket, he would, in that case, receive it all
         as a gift.
    ➤ We were too uncivilized to give great importance to private property.
    ➤ We didn’t know any kind of money and consequently, the value of a human being was not determined by his wealth.
    ➤ We had no written laws laid down, no lawyers, no politicians, therefore we were not able to cheat and swindle one
         another.
    ➤ We were really in bad shape before the white men arrived and I don't know how to explain how we were able to
         manage without these fundamental things that (so they tell us) are so necessary for a civilized society.

J. W. Goethe used this phrase in a long letter to his sister Cornelia at age 18

Copying the phrase from a letter written by Roman philosopher Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)

    US American Quaker, journalist, poet, essayist, cited in: AZ Quotes
  • Withdraw into yourself and look; and if you do not find yourself beautiful as yet, do as does the sculptor of a statue [...] cut away all that is excessive, straighten all that is crooked, bring light to all that is shadowed.

Publically paraphrased as

Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.

  • It can scarcely be denied that the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irre-
    ducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to sur-
    render the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.

  • When we live simply, we simply act, without attachment to the results of our actions. We exist within the present moment, free from aversion, attachment and desire, free from past and future. We live in the moment, totally connected to God, connected to our heart. Then every action is the "right" one – performed in service to our highest self which is not different from the highest self in all others. In this way, we live free from blame and shame, free from anger and aversion, free from suffering. In this way, we exist in joy. Joy always exists. Judith Indira Ann Parsons, US American angel reader, counselor, author, The Clear and Simple Way. A Book of Angel Lessons, Dandelion Books, 1. April 2004

 

  • Underneath the so-called narcissistic personality is definitely shame and the paralyzing fear of being ordinary. Often it's hard for people to believe that someone in their life who is critical and rejecting of them is really suffering from their own shame. Both shame and grandiosity come from the same feeling that "if I'm not above the rest, I'm not enough."
    Interview with Brené Brown, Ph.D., LMSW (*1965) US American shame, vulnerability, empathy researcher, Graduate College of Social Work, University of Houston, public speaker, author, Author Brené Brown Discusses Embracing Our Ordinariness, presented by the US American liberal-oriented online newspaper Huffington Post,

Wisdom story

  • A story is told of a famous Rabbi much sought for his spiritual wisdom. When a young man entered the Rabbi's home
    after making the arduous journey, he was quite astonished to see that it was only a simple room filled with books. The
    only furniture was a table and a bench.
    "Where is your furniture?", asked the young man.
    "Where is yours?", said the Rabbi.
    "Mine?" said the young man. "But I'm only a visitor here."
    "So am I", said the Rabbi.
