(Rodin's Thinker)

Thinking I am the
Thinker subjects “me” to what
The mind imagines.
Thinking I am the
One Thinking subjects “me” to
Apparent “others.”

Hay-Ku of the Day (Not Subject to Death)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(Hay Crew Family Reunion Photograph)
Hay Crew (West Coast Branch) Family Reunion (2010); A "sense of family" points to a "heartfelt oneness" that transcends any "conceptual structure of thought"; Companion Haiku: Without ownership of the Thought Structure I Am Consciousness Itself.
Without ownership
Of the Thought Structure I Am
What I Am in Truth.
Without ownership
Of the Thought Structure I Am
Not subject to death.
[Rich Note: For anyone who might be interested in seeing a "story of me" video of a talk given at the Author's Showcase done at Scotto's Pizza in Woodbury, NJ, last Monday, I posted it on "You Tube" yesterday. The link is ( view link ). I'll be up-loading a second and a short third video, later tonight, in which I read some favorite pieces from OOMM and the Hay-Ku of the Day. Althought I am not particularly pleased with the camera angle or body -- after losing 20 from pounds, it doesn't appear to have made much difference -- LOL! Still, it's not too bad for a first effort.]

Hay-Ku of the Day (Thought Structure Ownership)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(God Phillies Photograph)
Go Phillies (2010); The “joy of victory and the agony of defeat” of identifying (re: ownership of the thought process) with a particular sports team was experienced by Phillies fans with a World Series win in 2008 and subsequent loss in 2009: Companion haiku: Ownership of the thought structure subjects one to mental appearance.
“Ownership of the
Thought structure” is the source of
Human suffering.
“Ownership of the
Thought structure” subjects "me" to
Whatever "I think."

Hay-Ku of the Day (Unify)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(The Word Abstract)
The Word (2006 Reprise); As this abstract is seminal to the others in OOMM, so is I Am, as Aware Sensory Being, Conscious Aliveness or Consciousness, seminal to Everything; Companion haiku: Mind stayed in Aware Sensory Presence unites seeming difference.
“I Am” is Aware
Sensory Presence Conscious
Of Itself as That.
Stay in the I Am,
Unify Consciousness and
Restore Paradise.

Hay-Ku of the Day (Stay in the I Am)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(Be Still and Know Photograph)
Be Still and Know (2009); Extending the lines of each clover leaf in this image results in a trinity of heart-like arrows that point to and meet at the center; Companion haiku: Minding Pure Aware Sensory Presence is a Gateway to Glory.
Stay in the I Am
Without movement and you will
Unify the mind.
Mind stayed in the I
Am without movement is a
Short-cut to Heaven.

Hay-Ku of the Day (The Inner Light)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(Inward Gaze Photography)
Inward Gaze (2009); Although most would conclude I am staring outwardly, this is really "aware sensory presence" inwardly focused on some "particualar conceptual matter" (and no, there is nothing wrong; this is just how I look when I'm thinking - lol); Companion haiku; Accompanying.
Aware Sensory
Presence is Fundamental
To Being Alive.
Aware Sensory
Presence is the Pure Conscious
Aliveness I Am.
Aware Sensory
Presence is Pure Awareness
Being Self-Aware.

Hay-Ku of the Day (Aware Sensory Presence)
[Rich Note: Companion image may be viewed at rfhay333.gather.com.]
(Mirror, Mirror Photograph)
Mirror, Mirror (2009); The Direct Light of the Sun in this Image is like the Light of Pure Awareness and the Secondary Light of its reflection in the water is like Aware Sensory Presence, though the Light, in either case, is One; Comnpanion haiku: Accompanying.
Divine Awareness
Manifests as Pure Aware
Sensory Presence.
Vibrant Awareness
Becomes Aware Sensory
Presence of Being.
Aware Sensory
Presence is Pure Awareness
Being Self-Aware.
