Awake

-Are you a God?
- they asked the Buddha.
- No.
- Are you an angel, then?
- No.
- A saint?
- No.
- Then what are you?
-
I am AWAKE.

Om Mani Padme Hum

Matthew 25:40

And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

Matthew 7 1-6


1. Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

Snow, snow go away...

A friend wrote in his blog about the rain they're getting where he lives in Southern Calif. over the last couple days. Another friend asked about the weather and when I said it had come up to almost 30 degrees that day he laughed and said it was cool in San Diego, only in the mid sixties. Both of them should live here one winter.  It's been snowing for the last seven or eight days, not steady and not a lot, at least here, but snowing anyway. Last week the high temperature was between 10 and 20 degrees in the daytime and a below 0 low at night. Roads snowy and icey, slick and dangerous.  Last few days a tropical 30ish high and lows in the teens at night. At least now mid January, it's staying light to almost 6pm and no longer dark by 4:30. I know, same in Calif. but here the cold, snow, intense dark of no streetlights, just winter in general, make it so much worse.
