Ο ΣΥΝΗΘΗΣ ΥΠΟΠΤΟΣ

Μπάζει ελευθερία κι έχω ζεσταθεί.

Το σώμα ανώνυμο

και το μυαλό που το κοιτάει

δεν αναγνωρίζει τους γονείς του.

Δεν είμαι πια ο Ζορρό της αιτιότητας.

DRILL

Got a quarter in my pocket
and a bull as my pet,
five more years to make it thirty cents
and complete my karmic debts.

Μπορούμε εξίσου καλά να ξεκινήσουμε από το τέλος

Μια υποσημείωση

Χρησιμοποιώ στην ποίηση μου το όνομα του Χίτλερ με την έννοια του προσωποποιημένου σκοταδιού και ασυνείδητα για να τσαντίσω την πλειοψηφία κόσμου που ήθελε το φως εξίσου απόλυτο. Ο Ζεν Βουδισμός δεν πιστεύει στην προσωποποίηση. Η δε ταυτοπροσωπία δασκάλου και μαθητή ήταν πάντα για το Ζεν σχεδόν αναπόφευκτη.

PSYCHOSIS? NOT COMPLETELY ...

Michael Hughes: "Did your mother have a miscarriage when you were a boy?"

Dimitrios: "Yes."

Michael Hughes: "No wonder. This could lead to psychosis."

ΤΗΣ ΤΡΟΦΙΜΟΥ

Γιατί το λίγο-λίγο,

αν δε σνομπάρει,

θέλει το μοναδικό

που δε μασάει

και το θέλει

τώρα.

AUTOEROTIC ASPHYXIA

He hangs himself

in the bathroom,

a noose around his neck

five serpents around

his balls,

heat, suffocating heat

and secrets

completed.

Does a dog have Buddha nature?

"So does my cat."

Sitting Zazen

Dimitrios: "As I leave Los Angeles, I wonder where I will be able to continue my practice. I feel like I am going to miss Zazen.Where can I find inspiration but in the meditation hall?"

Michael: ''I don't agree with that at all. Any idiot can sit cross-legged. That's what made the great Zen masters of the past as opposed to five hundred others who were just drones."

Historic falsity

How can the world come to an end when it never began?

Sri Ramana Maharshi

Non-attachment, non-attachment

Συγκεντρώνομαι στην ιδέα της μη-προσκόλλησης, δηλαδή, τι θα πει Βουδισμός χωρίς όνομα και διεύθυνση και τι θα πει Ζεν. Ο λόγος: γνωρίζω άτομα που όχι μόνο δεν προσκολλώνται στον υλικό πλούτο, αλλά αρέσκονται κυρίως στον πνευματικό ηρωισμό.
Να λοιπόν ένα βιβλίο του Shunryu Suzuki roshi κάτω από το οποίο κρύβω τις μυστήριες εκδοχές μου. Διαβάζω το Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind και ξέρω ότι είμαι μικρός σαν το μυρμήγκι για να εναντιωθώ στον απλό διαλογισμό του. Κι όμως το κατανοώ. Αφανής και άγνωστος αντί για δοξασμένος και διάσημος; Ακόμα καλύτερα!
Δεν είναι ανάγκη πάντα να κρατάς ένα κόκκινο πανί μπροστά από τον ταύρο. Σήκωσέ τον νοερά στην πλάτη σου.

ΟΙ ΤΡΕΙΣ ΕΡΗΜΙΤΕΣ

Εμφανίζονται μια μέρα στον Αρχιεπίσκοπο τρεις ερημίτες και του λένε: "Είμαστε τρεις, ελέησόν Με".

Αυτός λοιπόν τους απαντάει: "Αφού είσαστε τρεις γιατί να μην σας ελεήσω;"

Cogito ergo NON sum

The Disciple: "Do you know I studied Philosophy for my university degree?"

The Master: " Me too and I've spent thirty years un-learning it."

Long live the Hughes name !

Ευαίσθητος

Φυσάει μαύρος άνεμος Ζεν στην παραλία με τα σίγμα.

'Ενα γερό κύμα του Βούδα και παρ' ολίγο να σε ξαπλώσουν,
ξαπλώστρα μαζί και τέντα.

- Βρήκες το αναπτηράκι και τα τσιγάρα;

O,TI

'Ο,τι φυλάς για το μουσείο της φώτισης

                 ξέχνα το

όλοι αναζητούν ένα εγωισμό

κι εσύ ένα έξω απ' τον κόσμο αυτό

ν'αποδείξεις ότι είσαι

                  ό,τι είσαι 

                  είναι εδώ

                  στα απωλεσθέντα  

                  όταν χαθεί 

                  ό,τι φυλάς

                  και γελάσεις.

Surrender

"Surrender to God? That's very tricky language, you have to be careful. Otherwise it means,'I give up' ."

Previous reincarnations

"Now I see three different past lives where your work had to do with writing and the first one goes back into the Egyptian days where your writing was all tied up with the priesthood and the priesthood at that time was pretty rigid, it didn't flourish for 1500 years because there was no change in it.You were like a stenographer you had to write down what you were told.

The time of the rebellion in you is later in 16th century Italy when your writing is over the other swing of the pendulum, full of fire.That was during the Age of Enlightenment and it was rather dangerous although I don't see you being arrested or having your head chopped off.

Then you had a more recent life around eighteen-hundred but that's a rather peculiar one, you had a life in a woman's body as we do: we don't just alternate male-female, male-female but we do something of both and we usually do one better than the other. The setting of it was such that there wasn't much offered by way of woman's writing, nobody took it seriously, like stay home and write poetry.

The advantage you have now, is you can add up, you can accrue whatever you've learned out of these lives and make it part of your new life''.

Michael Hughes

Animals

A quote by Michael Hughes:

''In this dream language you have an assortment of animals who are all accompanying you. The first one I see is obviously the dog, fairly large, but other ones which are a lot less familiar, one of them is a hippopotamus - well, I didn't know we can make pets out of them- another is a giraffe, and I interpret it that  I am not limited as most people are to a dog, a cat or a canary, I have made a reconciliation with the creatures of the world whatever their shapes are. Because as I see them they are, all with you or around you and that their position is supportive. Some of them have specific meaning, like in Hindu mythology Ganesha the elephant who has a beautiful body but he has the head of an elephant, he represents the microcosm in its relationship to the macrocosm.''
