This World is a River and the Name of God is the True Boat - Light and Sound on The Path

This world is a river and the Name of God *

is the true boat.

Be not slack on this occasion,

at this opportunity, says Dadu.

What is the use of living for ten million

years?

What is to be gained by being immortal?

Without the Nectar of love and devotion to

God,

What worth is there in life, O Dadu?

Eaten by rust day by day,

iron is slowly reduced to dust.

Without God – the philosopher’s stone – life,

like iron, is simply lost somewhere, says

Dadu.

Through contact with the philosopher's

stone,

iron transforms its nature;

Through contact with one’s Beloved,

one is likewise converted into gold, says

Dadu.

Simran, Repetition of Names of God

"In order to cut our mind’s pull outside in this physical world, the Masters require us to use a physical help, and that is in the form of these Holy Names which we repeat. Because it is only by a physical intrusion that we will be able get the mind out of its outward pull in this world.

"So, therefore, to get our attention away from everything outside and focused within, it is very important for us to do the repetition of the Holy Names.

"That is why the Masters keep repeating again and again and encouraging us to do our Simran. Time and again, They tell us that we have to keep on doing our Simran. Because it is this which is the first step of the ladder to go within. It is only with the help of Simran that we will be able to get the attention of the soul focused again at the Eye Center." (excerpted from, Simran Is The Most Important Step That The Masters Prescribe, by Baba Ram Singh, January 1, 2022, Satsang Discourse)

Poor Zuko

He just wanted to join the Gaang but now the blind girl is moving metal, the sweet watergirl is bending blood and the kid is talking to spirits

At least he can count on Sokka to be normal. Oh, where did you say that sword was from?

Yeah, that’s right, fucking outer space

don’t you love when you’re casually reading a random poem and suddenly come across a line that burrows into your bones and becomes the definition of your heart for the next 17 years

#poetry posting #Me with ‘lord we owe the world such tenderness’ #And ‘In the next life I’ll become something useful. like a staple gun. or in love.’ #Or ‘our great betrayal is our infinite gentleness’ #Like WHAT THE HELL #poetry #reading poetry

Things Neil Gaiman said about our ineffable husbands that make my heart skip a few beats:

- this is a love story

- they like holding hands

- they held hands in season 1 (he let us figure out that it was on the bus)

- it’s implied that Aziraphale stayed at Crowley’s apartment the night after the No-pocalypse

- this is a love story

- roughly 4 years passed between s1 and 2

- they will have a cottage in the South Downs at some point

- shoemaker-cum-obstetrician

- he called Michael and David ‘my boys’

for context: I read the hobbit first over the course of two years when I was like 13, but I'm only now starting to read lotr. having a blast tho!

anyways, reblog if you feel like it 🙌🏻

#lord of the rings #the hobbit #lotr #hobbit #yeah guys idk i just feel like most people read it really young #but jolkein is really wordy and idk how y'all got through that at 8 yo #my attention span could neverrrrrr #obviously not as wordy as like. les mis. but you know what i mean. #lots and lots of context all the time. love that for his worldbuilding not so much for my hold on the plot #and yes i have watched the movies #i didn't completely miss the cultural zeitgeist #yay first time making a poll! if you vote or read my tags this far you are a gem 🫶🏻 #edit: i realize i spelled tolkien wrong. i feel like this proves my point #but also i feel like thats something you spell with your heart and not your mind

Frodo: Sam hates Gollum, but that is what I shall become once I have lost myself to the ring... he’ll despise me... 

Sam if Frodo did turn into a Gollum: That’s a very nice fish you caught with your bare hands, Mr. Frodo, and its very smart of you to eat it raw, saves us the trouble of starting a fire. I knitted you a sweater in case you get cold running around in that loincloth of yours. Is the sun hurting your eyes? I’ll kill it if it’s bothering you. I’ll kill the sun

#lord of the rings #lotr #samfro #something something frodo would never end up like gollum bc gollums whole thing was that he was completely isolated #and frodo is loved and cared for even at his worst #also it took gollum all of 3 seconds to go full murder mode and it took frodo like 17 years and also Physically Being Inside Mount Doom #before snapping #but anyway sam would stubbornly love and care for horrible wretched gollum!frodo and nothing will convince me otherwise #pats his lil bald head and wipes his mouth after he tears into raw wriggling flesh for supper #kisses his bony little murder-hands #gives him snuggleses

Had a debate with a friend and now I gotta know

please reblog for larger sample size, my friend bet me no one would say Gimli and I wanna prove her wrong

#she also bet me no one would say Gandalf. and to be clear I would love to prove her wrong on that too. but Gimli feels much more achievable #lord of the rings #lotr #polls

knight/lord ships are like. what if i would die for you. what if i wanted you to live for me. what if i wanted to touch you but could only be satisfied with being near you. what if i could touch you but only through the safety of our gloves. what if i couldn’t stop thinking about you right next to me. what if i bloodied my hands for you and never looked back at the wreckage. what then

#DEVOTION!!!! YEARNING!!!!!! #KILLING YOUR ENEMIES IN THE NAME OF LOVE!!!!! #gasping when the two's hands meet because the IMPROPRIETY of it all #chit chattery #tropes #edit: for some reason some ppl seem to think this is only about men?? #knight and lord are gender neutral terms and also dont necessarily need to actually be nobility it's about the vibes

Imagine going on a cross country trip to share the (mildly embarrassing) news with an adjacent king that your guards lost a prisoner, but when you get there- there’s actually a huge crowd of people who all get called into a massive Super Important Meeting. And the prisoner (who you thought wasn’t like That Big of a deal) gets brought up, and everyone’s talking about how great your kingdoms security is, and how important it is that he’s locked up, and you’re just sitting there sweating buckets. And you have to stand up in front of Everybody and tell them ‘actually he escaped and had been gone for months’. While everyone looks at you with the most disappointed faces you’ve ever seen. What a loser.

And Then you have to go on an even Longer trip with all of these people who’s first impression of you was some cringefail sweaty loser who can’t even keep track of one (1) guy.

No wonder Legolas was showing off every chance he got, he was trying to bring his reputation up from like -100
