The perennial philosophy is expressed most succinctly in the Sanskrit formula, Tat tvam asi (That art thou); the Atman, or the immanent eternal Self is one with Brahman, the Absolute principle of all existence; and the last end of every […]Read Post ›
And she was a vampire in her own way. I watched her suck countless lives and still somehow wanted to be near her. She was meant to wreak havoc but still seemed so full of love. In her eyes she had something quite different, something that had a sort of shimmer. She had an untamed […]Read Post ›
I look into her and it’s quite possible that there is fire burning in the ocean of her eyes. Impossible to most but if you knew her you’d know she is far from typical. She runs through the night and she’ll take your hand to challenge your worthiness. On a ride that will leave you […]Read Post ›
