delusion and reality

i see no "real" difference between delusion and reality.
the relationship between different and ever changing
contexts gives us the concept of delusion,
deep feeling inside cannot effect this, thought does it.
even a poem written half out and half in sleep
as greeting and present is not less true than
a call at lunchtime to announce the end
of the world. fortunately there was no call
like that today, only loads of work followed
by relaxation and meeting my horse.
not each poem must be art,
the "truth" of the present moment is enough.
emotional honesty is my gift and my task,
wisdom is where i go a bit more than before.
this is my call to me today, my diary.

what i meant and to say is nothing

    for Alice coming with starships

    

    

   when i wrote

   to you

   i wanted to say

   it feels right

   what i feel,

   more and more.

   i am here

   in our sleep

   i am in the dark

   i am in the light

   i am in the sound

   i am in the silence

   and i find you

   as i find me.

   i find inside,

   i find outside,

   all meeting,

   all moving,

   all touching,

   near and far

   i find us

   all fluid

   all lucid

   through clouds

   in dreams,

   in flight,

   in sinking. and

   in imperfection

   i find infinity,

   in a whisper

   and without.

   sometimes

  i hold my breath,

  joy and pain

  so clear together.

  i search your hand

  when i step out

  of starships

  into this space

  we had forlorn

  i hold you

  when you rise,

  i hold you

  when you fall.

  good night.

The Quantum and the Lotus, Matthieu Ricard, Trinh Xuan R´Thuan, quotes, Each to his own reality

quote: According to the Madhyamaka school, the right way to look at reality
is in terms of interdependence between conscious and unconscious phenomena,
neither of which exists in absolute terms.

quote:..,Khyentse Rinpoche, put it this way:
"When  a reflection appears in a mirror,
you cannot say that it is a part of the mirror, nor that it lies elsewhere.
In the same way, perceptions of exterior phenomena take place
neither in the mind nor outside.
Phenomena are not really existent or non-existent.
So the realization of the ultimate nature of things
lies beyond the concepts of being or nonbeing."

(page 123, chapter: Each to his own reality)

i question the word "things", see page 124:

quote: The literal meaning of samskara,
the Sanskrit word for "things" or "aggregates"
is "event" or "action".
