#man-made

Lookin' Out My Backdoor.

Actually, out the front door balcony toward Shinjuku.

Something seems odd here.

Still dreaming of home in the Appalachians.

“There cannot be a healed or better ‘me.’  ‘Me’ - that is, the mortal, ego image itself imposed on the divine - itself is the disease.  The human world, being but a multiple extension of ‘me,’ is one great disease (Romans 7:14, 8:13).  ‘Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God’ (1 Corinthians 15:50).  We don’t just want a better disease, but no disease at all.  Nature shows what happens.  Man’s body goes to the grave, and all the concrete in the world is again reduced to earth.  Grass is the healing of civilization.  The end of prayer is not some man-made alternative, but return to God.  All bad is man’s leaving God - all good, returning.  Man’s entire purpose is - return to God.  Once back with God, there’s no more good and bad.”
