“We could be Immortal
If we just let go of hate
If we just let go of chaos
If we just let go of war
If we just let go of guns
We could be Immortal
If we just embraced love
Put human beings & nature first
But instead we choose
To be the worst examples
Of our primitive selves
Lacking in all of our best virtues
Lacking in any new ideas or values
Without these realizations
We go one step forward &
Always two steps back
Never succeeding
Never growing
Dead”
Source: R A W POEMS R.M. ENGELHARDT

regardless of which one we practice.

“We could become quite satisfied with ourselves because we are sitting in meditation and are endeavoring to practice the spiritual path. Such satisfaction with ourselves is not the same as contentment. Contentment is necessary, self-satisfaction is detrimental. To be content has to include knowing we are in the right place at the right time to facilitate our own growth. But to be self-satisfied means that we no longer realize the need for growth. All these aspects are important parts of our commitment and makes us into one whole being with a one-pointed direction.”

A—” “Do I really have to find a word for it?” Kyle interrupts. “Can’t it just be what it is?” “Of course,” I say, even though in the bigger world I’m not so sure. The world loves stupid labels. I wish we got to choose our own. We pause for a moment. I wonder if that’s all—if he just needed to say the truth and have it heard. But then Kyle looks at me with unsure eyes and says, “You see, I don’t know who I’m supposed to be.” “Nobody does,” I assure him.”

“We could choose to celebrate our differences, rather than over-analyze them. This might help us become more realistic about the generalizations to which we subscribe. For example, consider this.

“We could decide simply to remain absorbed in the mysterious, unformed, free-play of reality. This would be the choice of the mystic who seeks to extinguish himself in God or Nirvana—analogous perhaps to the tendency among artists to obliterate themselves with alcohol or opiates. But if we value our participation in a shared reality in which it makes sense to make sense, then such self-abnegation would deny a central element of our humanity: the need to speak and act, to share our experience with others.”

“We could do something set in the 21st century, where I travel around to lots of different places and we talk to different ethnicities and lots of different racial and religious minorities, so it's not just the black-and-white America; it hasn't been that since the '90s.”

But we don't do that.”
“We could endlessly reminisce, live in the past to an unhealthy degree, then politely kill each other some winter night before bedtime, stirring poison into our cups of whiskey-spiked chamomile tea, wearing party hats.

“We could experience limitless ecstasy. Ecstasy is every sensual thing that ever could happen in the present and future. It can all be a part of our daily life experience, but our sensual capacity is too small to allow it to happen. That’s why we must be totally devoted to the limitless expansion expansion of our sensuality, we must come play in the limitless, so that everything that ever could happen would have somewhere to happen in.”
“We could fall and not break. We could alchemize music, make it physical, let it touch our unsettled souls. Our youth was so powerful it could not possibly last, or it would consume us whole.

My immediate “No!” was echoed by the rest of the boys.
“Babe.” Blake walked towards me with open arms. “It’ll be fun!”
I scooted over the back of the couch.
“Down boy.” Ayden shoved him off course.
