Hay-Ku of the Day (War No More)

"War no more" with the
"Outer projections" of your
Own "mis-perceptions."

"War no more" with the
"Outer projections" of your
"Inner-conceptions."

***

"War no more" with the
"Outer reflections" of your
"Self-imagined world."

"War no more" with the
"Outer reflections" of your
"Own inner shadows."

"War no more" with the
"Outer reflections" of your
"Personal thought life."

***

"War no more" with the
"Vain imaginings" of self
"Referential thought."

"War no more" with the
"Double-minded" projections 
Of "reflective thought."





(1) Syd Banks-wise:

"All feelings derive and come alive, whether negative or positive, from the power of Thought."

"Thought is not reality, yet it is through Though that our realities are created."

“All life is energy manifest into form via thought. The source of this energy contains the knowledge all mankind seeks."

"All humans have the inner ability to synchronize their personal mind with their impersonal mind to bring harmony into their lives."

"We're searching for a silent mind. It's in the silence of the mind that all the secrets of life are found, where all happiness is found."

"You must look within.  And if you look in the personal mind and all the past problems, you are looking outside. you are looking at the mistake. You are looking at the mess.  You are looking at the illusion."

"You have to go beyond all concepts and you will find it in the stillness of your mind...When you hear beyond the word, an inner light goes on and it brings out inner knowledge, wisdom, spiritual intelligence, before the contamination of human (analytical) thought."

We're all searching for our home grounds. We're search to find the way home. And to find the way home, what we have to do is look at everything in reverse, because naturally if you're away from home, if you keep walking you keep walking further away.  To find home you've got to turn around.  You have got to go the opposite direction and instead of searching outside for the answer you seek, all you do is turn around, and look inside. And there lie the secrets that you want."

(3) Buddha-Wise: "You are what you think."

(3) Scripture-Wise: 

"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee." Proverbs 23:7 KJV

"Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." Matthew 24:44 KJV

"Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?" Matthew 6:31 KJV

"Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." Matthew 6:34 KJV

"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Philippians 4:8 KJV

(4) Bill Samuel-Wise:

"Few have discovered that we are able to 'think' or to listen and see without an individual intellect."

"Without doubt, the primary 'action' of humanity is 'thinking' — thinking construed to be evaluating, analyzing, reasoning, calculating, planning and judgment making, not to mention the worry that ordinarily accompanies all its decisions.

"Well! This is the very business that has gotten the world into its apparent trouble! This is the activity that produces the intellect's trials and tribulations—just plain, everyday 'thinking.'

"The time has come to stop thinking, planning and evaluating. The time has come to stop the incessant judgment of every sight and sound. Why?  So we may go about our daily activities with unencumbered vision and unabated enthusiasm and see everything as it is: beautiful and perfect. 

"I tell you, when we end this personal, intellectual evaluation habit, our desert, seemingly barren of health, wealth, companionship, love or happiness, will run with rivers again! When we stop all this 'I like-I want; I dislike-I don't want' nonsense, our desert will blossom as a rose! Sorrow and sighing shall flee away! When worried thinking ends, we find that Perfection is already established and at hand!

"Extravagant statements? Don't take my word for it; listen to your Heart and your own experience will be the proof!"
