"Welchen Unterschied macht es denn, eine Frau zu sein, wenn sich der Herzgeist klärt und das intuitive Wissen in einem erblüht, indem man den Dharma immer tiefer durchdringt? Wenn da noch einer denkt: 'Ich bin eine Frau' oder 'Ich bin ein Mann' oder 'Ich bin doch etwas in jedem Fall', wird man den Kräften der Verblendung unterliegen."

(Die Wanderasketin Soma, Systematische Sammlung, Pali-Kanon)


"Die Liebe ist eine Gleichung. Ein 'Ich' und ein 'Du' ergibt ein 'Wir'. Das ist wirklich ganz einfach...
Damit will ich sagen, dass die Basis für jedes 'Wir' immer ein 'Ich' ist. Und wenn das 'Ich' noch nicht ganz fertig ist, dann darfst du keinesfalls anfangen, schon das 'Wir' aufzubauen."

(Ally McBeal)


"Once the realisation is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue to exist, a wonderful living side by side can grow up, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see each other whole against the sky."

(Rainer Maria Rilke)

They will follow you into your dreams

My guess is that my YouTube obsession went too far right now. Why?
I dreamt of Matt Guion. When I woke up in my dream, Matt sat upon me on top of my blanket. He said:"Finally you are awake.". Then he jumped from the bed and went to the bathroom before I could say something. I don't remember the exact words, but he complained about being bored and/or having to wait for something (either his classes or some YouTube stuff). While he was in the bathroom I noticed there was a bit of soil in my bed, obviously it came from his trousers, and I decided to make it clear to him that I don't like dirt in my bed (or in my whole flat for that matter). So he came back in the room when I still searched for the correct English expression for "Ich meine es nicht böse". Suddenly he mumbled something like "This damn critters!". As soon as I heard that I thought:" Yeah, he would understand that. He has his neuroses too." (because there where just a few really small flies). Unfortunately in the next moment I've been woken by the ringing of my mobile.
Ehm, help?!
