Let someone take from you whatever you hold onto so you may be
without and penniless that you may thirst and hunger and so be
available to receive your treasure from within.
Is
it not so that the meaning of the term Blue
Moon
is the revelation that our calendar is a false one …and that which
we call moon
knows it? So, if the calendar we order ourselves by is fake, what
else is unreliable as well? Let
it all- one by one- be taken in order that I may know the truth.
Call me Ishmael. Beloved outcast. If you say it, it will be so.
Let someone take from you whatever you hold onto so you may be
without and penniless that you may thirst and hunger and so be
available to receive your treasure from within.
What
were you born to hold? Do you know? Every relationship you have
named and hold onto is false. Every role you play is false. Behold
the stage! All the other players. My friends. My fellows. My
comrades. My wife. My husband. My children. My cousin. My boss.
My employee. My mother. My father. My God.
My countryman. My associate. My brother. My enemy. My teacher.
My student. My lover. My beloved.
Let someone take from you whatever you hold onto so you may be
without and penniless that you may thirst and hunger and so be
available to receive your treasure from within.
Do
you even know how to be real for a second? A fraction of a second?
Actor,
do
you remember being offstage? What were you carrying with you when you
came to the first audition? Do you know the actor, as
an actor?
Who is
it then who knows
the actor? Who is that one? Let me introduce you. Actor, meet your
true self. True self, meet the actor.
So,
hand over all your precious holdings, the roles, and all the props.
And walk away. Empty now. Leave the stage. Remove your mask. Leave
the theatre. Go home. They are turning out the lights now. Go home,
Actor. Actor, go home!
