3 thoughts on “Superbowl – Incantation

  1. It never ceases to amaze me how the tone of the room changes when you’ve gone out of your way to connect with someone where they are. There is just something about being paid attention to that calms anxiety and opens eyes and ears. (Lordy! I can SO identify…) Listening to you explain how the church is actually a corporate arm of the state by agreeing to be A-political, I wondered what you thought about the executive order being considered to lift those restrictions for tax exempt status. Do you imagine that would be a good thing or a bad thing? But it was the question about “What is real?” at the end there that really grabbed me. I don’t think you really got around to defining that, did you? And your comment about “I swore I wasn’t coming here no more, and yet here I am again…” has me thinking of how to apply that to why I say the same thing when my sugar trends up. Lots for me to think about in this one…

    • I’ve not heard about the tax exempt stuff so I really don’t have an opinion. What ever it is though it is still wanting approval from the state for some type of behavior in order to not be taxed. I think taxation in itself is a control mechanism and a draining of wealth from the people to the state. I think whatever “real” individually is known when I am living inside my self in a deeper way. Not totally in my head reacting to anxiety. Backing away a bit from the stimulus and observing. I think though that like god it can’t be named. I had always though the jews prohibited the use of god’s name out of some respect that it was too holy or sacred to say. I think now that one can’t say the name simply because one can’t say the name. It is beyond words. To me the word real is another word for that which can not be named.
