The Can Opener * 27
    #19913025 - 04/28/14 05:48 PM (9 years, 10 months ago)




I want to compile an extensive & thorough list of mind blowing/mind bending, powerful, profound, beautiful, cognitive dissonance causing, quotes, memes, videos, lyrics(or songs), scriptures, illustrations, links, poems, or whatever form of portraying an idea or emotion you can come up with.
No specific subject, anything you deem profound is sufficient -- trolls welcome. :heart:

I understand that material I/you find profound are not profound to everyone, or anyone, but myself/yourself. It's entirely a matter of perception, perception is point of view specific and dynamic in it's interaction with time, the epitome of subjectivity.
That's a good thing, I would like everyone to ignore what they think they should post, and post what they actually find important to them.
I'll add all additions to the OP for quick referencing and convenience for all.

excellent topic!

I love these lyrics from Tea Leaf Green's song Kali Yuga:

"And wise men are hiding in mountains While most of us are working too hard"

It reminds me to slow down and live in the now.

this album: inspiring. listen to this band a lot.

here is a poem

I go, ego, I go, we all go!
This  Piety-Identity
Chipped, but yet still chortled,
Indemnified the first stones.

Paved in iridescence, and
Caged in Hell
(Happier memories)

Disgraced in harmony, empty white shells
Moving roves of eyes
Seeking nothing, reaping remains of truth
Listless calm, breathing night sky,
Unveiling Death, alone in a shadow of the mind
Waking dim dreamless nightmare neverending and winding
Winding Winking Smiling
Seeking nothing in the remains of a sheltered hope

Regret fawning petty-worthy
Decadence petty-mighty consciousness.

This song really blew my mind once.  Caught me off guard in the middle of an intense LSD trip, to this day I can't think of another band that captured the psychedelic experience via sound like animal collective.  Simply ineffable.

Spirituality does not come from religion
-Unknown

The problem is not the problem, the problem is your attitude about the problem.
-Cptn.Jack Sparrow

“We have the money, the power, the medical understanding, the scientific know-how, the love and the community to produce a kind of human paradise.
But we are led by the least among us – the least intelligent, the least noble, the least visionary.”
–Terence McKenna

“The apocalypse is not something which is coming. The apocalypse has arrived in major portions of the planet and it’s only because we live within a bubble of incredible privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of anticipating the apocalypse.”
–Terence McKenna

You don't have a soul.
You are a soul.
You have a body.
-C.S.Lewis

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms.”
―Henry David Thoreau, Walden

“Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves.”
―Henry David Thoreau

“Not till we are completely lost or turned around... do we begin to find ourselves.”
―Henry David Thoreau

It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
-Marcus Aurelius, 121 AD - 180 AD

The only wealth which you will keep forever is the wealth you have given away.
-Marcus Aurelius, 121 AD - 180 AD

Death is a release from the impressions of the senses, and from desires that make us their puppets, and from the vagaries of the mind, and from the hard service of the flesh.
-Marcus Aurelius, 121 AD - 180 AD

You're it

Quote:


While far above the highest mountains in California another aspect of my consciousness soars like a winged poetry: and knows, somehow, more about what is coming that Dr. Troll's Seismograph: for I am the last, truly the last. The ecologists are right: mine is not merely an endangered but nearly an extinct species, and my senses have been sharpened beyond instinct by these last years.  I circle around, I circle around, I soar: I bank: I float. I am, rare moment for me! Not thinking about fish, for my belly is full at present. I circle around, circle around, thinking only about the soaring, the freedom, and more vaguely, about the bad vibes coming up from below.  Must you have a name?  Call me Hali One, then: haliaeetus leucocephalus the last: symbol once of imperial Rome and now of imperial America: of which I neither know nor care, for all I know is the freedom of my estate and about that the Romans and the Americans have never had aught but the most confused and distorted ideas.  Wearing my long green feathers I circle around. I am Hali One and I scream, not with rage or with fear or with anger; I scream echoes from mountain to another mountain, resonating onward and onward, a sound that only another of my species could understand, and none are left to hear it.  But still I scream: the shriek of Shiva the Destroyer, true face of Vishnu the Preserver and Brahma the Creator: for my scream is not of life or death but of life-in-death, and I am equally contemptuous of Perri and of August Personage, of squirrels and of men, and of all lesser birds who cannot ascend to my height and know the agony and supremacy of my freedom.

So then, let's suppose that every night you were able to dream any dream you wanted to dream.
And suppose that you had the power to dream, for example, 75 years of time in one night. Or any length of time.
As you began on this adventure of dreams, you would naturally, fulfill all your wishes.
You would have every kind of pleasure, you see.
After several nights of 75 years of pleasure each, you would say: "woow.. that was pretty great".
But now, lets have a surprise.
Let's have a dream which isn't under control; where somethings going to happen to me, and I don't know what it's going to be.
And you would dig that, and come out of that saying: "wooow, that was a close shave wasn't it?".
Then you would get more and more adventurous.. and you would make further and further gambles as to what you would dream.

And finally you would dream, where you are now.
You would dream the dream that you were living the life that you're actually living today.
Playing.. that you weren't god.

-Alan Watts

Thank you Myke, and thank you further for contributing.
Do you have a personal definition/perspective of what that phrase means?
