101- There is but one infinite game.

Finite and Infinite Games- A vision of Life as Play and Possibility
by James P. Carse

An Excerpt:

100-
"The myth of Jesus is exemplary, but not necessary. No myth is necessary. There is no story that must be told. Stories do not have a truth that someone needs to reveal, or someone needs to hear. It is part of the myth of Jesus that it makes itself unnecessary; it is a narrative o f the word becoming flesh, of language entering history; a narrative of the word becoming flesh and dying, of history entering language. Who listens to his myth cannot rise above history to utter timeless truths about it.

It is not necessary for infinite players to be Christians; indeed it is not possible for them to be Christians; indeed it is not possible for them to be Christians- seriously. Neither is it possible for them to be Buddhists, or Muslims, or atheists, or New Yorkers- seriously. All such titles can only be playful abstractions, mere performances for the sake of laughter.

Infinite players on are not serious actors in any story, but the joyful poets of a story that continues to originate what they cannot finish.

101-
There is but one infinite game.

samadhi joriki



the echo of that day
has been so long and so fierce
that it is only now
reaching my subconsciousness

I am finally feeling it
It is finally healing.

The wound is done
The sound has fallen- down.

My head is solid
My heart is steady
My feet are wet
My mind is ready.

End
Begin
Middle

Samadhi
Joriki.

What is Samadhi Joriki?
http://www.jikoji.org/Kobun/samadhi.html

"Samadhi is a symmetrical pattern of energy. If you are not careful though, symmetrical energy begins to split like broken glass, and you find unexpected results.

In other words, once in a while you begin to feel very well-centered; whatever you say, whatever you see is perfect. At such a time, you get so high that you begin to preach to other people. After about five minutes you discover that you are at the wrong place, because no one understands you. Many people begin to say that you are in a strange state. Preaching is not necessary to do at all; you become blind about others if you begin to preach to them.

Joriki is the subject. Riki means power, like the force of wind itself. When you grasp something, your grasping strength and the thing grasped which pushes it back balance together. If there is not enough force, the thing will fall off. If there is too much force, it will push the thing. That kind of balance of force in whatever to do, whatever you speak, whatever you think, all go into the situation. So you have to be very careful about what kind of wish you send to other people. This is a kind tantric teaching, though you don't have to name it that. Thought itself, imagination itself, is a manifestation of that force. So keep a kind spirit toward yourself and toward others, and try to balance all things as they all should be. That is a necessary process, in order to use that power.

If your power is scattered in five things everyday, maybe some day the five things will come together, thirty years from now. But it is a very big job. The wisest way is to choose one, one you really want to do. Consign every other thing to the background and you will begin to observe that your doing in itself is completed, not waiting for tomorrow.

The jo in joriki means a stable strength. Usually it appears as a capacity for accepting other people or situations as they are, without wanting to control them By such acceptance you finally become yourself. Joriki is a very strange thing. Unless you sit, it never grows."

Fair City News: The Ozark Onion

There is a new newspaper circulating in Springfield. It can be found in most places where the The Free Press is distributed. At first glance it looks like it is actually News but it is not it is a Satire Paper with genuinely funny articles. This week has such titles as Springfield Driver Discovers Turn Signal and Dr. Brad Bradshaw adds "Ninja" to Ever-expanding Title.
