See ya there....

>>"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field...

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase 'each other'
doesn't make any sense.

I'll meet you there.....

You know, that poem reminds me of the legend of Prester John- a great mythological Christian king- whose kingdom was rich and fair- an earthly paradise- it was even marked on very old maps, even though it did not exist. It would be nice to lie down in grass here and now, beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing- I'm not sure I want to wait for a place not on maps, that may or may not exist except in the imagination (not that that isn't a great thing). I want it all I want it now. I think, actually, I've been there- but just didn't realize it until afterward. I hope the people I went there with realized it afterward too.

Maybe you and I can go. Maybe we've already been. :-)
