Koen’s Ra Quote of the day (I think)
"It's the joke of the 41, you know, sitting with its fantasies. But only the not-self gets sucked into that and what that brings: chaos after chaos after chaos.
It's collective; it's not personal.
You're not personally loving anybody. You're not personally fucking anybody. You're having an experience.
How are you supposed to translate that into love? You're not even thinking about the person. You're in the experience. It's only the experience that matters. That's what desire is.
And back there in the root of it, as the awake being, is this ability to transcend that, to turn it into the most impersonal perfection of love possible. That's what fantasy is.
After all, when you fantasize, you create the perfection.
It’s all exactly the way you like. It's all exactly the way you want it. It's wonderful, isn't it? That's the magic given to us. It’s a way of love that's given to us.
By the way, we all share the same fantasy. We're all in the same program. That kind of love is transcendent. It's out there in what people used to call the astral.
We're all connecting in those realms. Oh, it's really alive. It’s just different, and it's different when you're awake.
One day, if I have the time, I will write an I Ching for awake people instead of the one we have now, which is for the sleepers, because it's different. It's different when you're awake."
