Happy Easter dear readers of Wear and Dao the blog. Regular readers may recall Easter spent on Camino still in search of the Truth. According to some of you who can be bothered to accept the challenge of seeking the Truth and through whose lens you choose to peruse the Nature of Reality and other vital questions sought by those who can be bothered to work out things Philosophical and those merely amused to read the story of Wear and Dao on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela and beyond to Finisterra ...
Today on Palm Sunday friends gather to enjoy lunch together discussing comparative religion and whether or not any organised system of religion can have merit..Lunch went well with delicious, nutritious home made dishes with goose eggs, garlic, plus the secret ingredient which is love; Bill the philosopher and Sunday regular came along plus Carol the local adherent of Bom no less, leading to fascinating discourse between the four philosophers i.e. Bill, Carole, our hostess the caring nurse and yours truly!
This afternoon the next door neighbours came to shift more fixtures and fittings including many more books and the bookcases in which to keep them. It's delightful to gaze at the displays wondering how many books there are and written by whom. For example we have Krishnamurti, David Bohhm, Alan Watts, Ramana Maharshi, Thich Nhat Han, Robert Pirsig, James Lovelock, even Boris Johnson's biography of Churchill putting our fascist prime minister centre stage playing his hero's role.If this narcissistic PM is a hero, your sceptical blogger begs to differ dear readers. Adolf maybe, Winnie surely not!
Anyway, politics is merely divide and rule, an old game played by those interested in role play. Shakespeare said "All the world's a stage and he knew a thing or two. Let's muse instead on Ascension, Miracles and the Nature of Reality shall we?
Tomorrow, Monday, Easter Week continues in Jerusalem and books pile up to be displayed ... Shakespeare's on the shelf, William Blake too ... is there time to read them all in the short time left? Who knows dear readers but let's give a try shall we?
