This is what makes the sensitivity in the body increases. The crown chakra located above the top of the crown will light up. Displays things or what they want. This technique is the basis of the difference why every one dream will come true or not. And all of a sudden I seemed to be pushed out of his body to preach to my friends out there to help fulfill his wish. Similar to praying, is not it? But different, because this is a powerful prayer!(My name is Prana, page 6) Every time I passed the strawberry garden, I never missed it when she started his activities. Picking strawberries with her fingers. The steps lightly go through the bund which separates the row of trees with each other. As she strummed, she bent slightly. And this is the moment most waiting for. Her loose jilbab appeared to be waving in the wind. Appeared mound on her chest that seemed solid and tight. Ah, really thrilling! (Strawberry Girl, page 32) The village calm suddenly broke. All that began since the death of a dog belonging to a resident that happened suddenly. Originally the people thought it was just an ordinary occurrence. But seeing the condition of the corpse of the dog makes them think differently. (The Dog Hunter, page 48)
Download or read book Japanese Death Poems written by and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 1998-04-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A wonderful introduction the Japanese tradition of jisei, this volume is crammed with exquisite, spontaneous verse and pithy, often hilarious, descriptions of the eccentric and committed monastics who wrote the poems." --Tricycle: The Buddhist Review Although the consciousness of death is, in most cultures, very much a part of life, this is perhaps nowhere more true than in Japan, where the approach of death has given rise to a centuries-old tradition of writing jisei, or the "death poem." Such a poem is often written in the very last moments of the poet's life. Hundreds of Japanese death poems, many with a commentary describing the circumstances of the poet's death, have been translated into English here, the vast majority of them for the first time. Yoel Hoffmann explores the attitudes and customs surrounding death in historical and present-day Japan and gives examples of how these have been reflected in the nation's literature in general. The development of writing jisei is then examined--from the longing poems of the early nobility and the more "masculine" verses of the samurai to the satirical death poems of later centuries. Zen Buddhist ideas about death are also described as a preface to the collection of Chinese death poems by Zen monks that are also included. Finally, the last section contains three hundred twenty haiku, some of which have never been assembled before, in English translation and romanized in Japanese.

Book excerpt: WINDMILL LESSONS Love you sincerely, O wind it's the same as loving friends of the poor and poor because the wall-roof is like the most wanted dream when fate forced him to be a captain without a cabin I never cursed the lips that mention the propeller even though life begins with a dizzying wind not a machine that repeatedly fondles bearings or the burning of fossils that now have a foreign face We rely on life from a blow to blow then work to pull the two wheels that intersect like a fertile field with scattered seeds but we regularly water it even though there is no rain We believe that every job start with gradual change then learn from the snail that survives from enemy invasion and threat of starvation We believe that every effort beats from the simplicity that is not in vain then contemplate the fallen tree after being slaughtered rot and then pass on the fungi that decompose because that's how opportunity is born not the fruit of waiting-luck but from event to event what was once a normal thing struggling to free you from the dark embrace without ever waking up a bunch of smoke is a very, very sacred mission without shouldering any strings attached another day without polluting the baby's soft nose young children, and nursing mothers oh, no matter how fast-persistent we run keep the heart back where we started Surakarta, November 25-28, 2013 The poem was published in Suara Merdeka newspaper, December 1, 2013.

Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
