Mystical Open Mic

Come play and express the fullness of your ecstatic spiritual nature through offerings of poetery, prayer, chants, invocations, verse and songs of devotion.

Bring original works or those of favorite sages, saints, sadhus, Sufis, seers, singers, gurus, magi, masters, mahatmas, mystics, muses, minstrels, holy men, heretics, bards, bagwans, bodhisattavas, troubadours, troublemakers, prophets, priestesses and philosopher poets.  And share your devotional offerings together in the sacred spirit of community.




That's it.  No date, time or location. 

What is the message here?  If you are a mystic, you will know when and where?  Or is this a more general invitation--"share your ecstatic spiritual nature every day"?

IMO, this is a perfect example of how difficult it is to make progress  when we forget the practical application of our spirituality.  Sending out such an invitation is all well and good...great intentions, a celebration of spirit and community, etc...

But without the down-to-Earth details such as time and place, the reality is not manifested.

Now, perhaps I'm wrong...perhaps the "true" mystics will spontaneously show up to share their poems and songs, and the purpose of leaving out such mundane details was to exclude materialists who require specific directions.  :shrug:

I like what Thoreau said about this:

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."

Great post. :thumbup:

Let's remain aware of the possibillity that the person who placed the ad was, quite simply, very stoned, and thus the probability that he simply had forgotten to put the time and place in the ad. :stoned:

Like the episode of the Simpsons, where Homer smokes medicinal marijuana. He inadvertantly signs a petition to ban medicinal marijuana, and then leads a campaign agansit the petittion. Medicinal marijuana ends up getting banned because the rally was held a day after the vote, and none of them voted for marijuana. :smirk:

Peace. :mushroom2:

You know how they are... preferring to only hang out with figments of their imagination, and all. :lol:

Define mystic.  :grin:

Republican Values:

1) You can't get married to your spouse who is the same sex as you.
2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.
