recently received another announcement from another spiritual "teacher", this time of soul astrology (much easier to do, since one can be intuitive only, and need not do anything so rash and realistic as actually be able to predict any future with the stars -- like an astrology lite -- and be required to be correct).
an apparently nearly complete ignorance of anything resembling the actual facts of history allows a much easier, and happier, untroubled solipsism to enjoy itself explaining about "leading from the dark ages of recent civilization to
something better".
this mentality is the main reason California was, after years, unendurable.

"Ach, es ist schwer, diese Gottesspur zu finden inmitten dieses Lebens, das wir fuhren, inmitten dieser so sehr zufriedenen, so sehr bürgerlichen, so sehr geistlosen Zeit, im Anblick dieser Architekturen, dieser Geschäfte, dieser Politik, dieser Menschen. Wie sollte ich nicht ein Steppenwolf und ruppiger Eremit sein inmitten einer Welt, von deren Zielen ich keines teile, von deren Freude keine zu mir spricht?" -- from Hesse's Steppenwolf

the present absences
thought: the preponderation of the presence of the Present Life and World in human experience forgoes whatever Past has passed, and totally eclipses the rumored transcendent Omni-Presence.
