Scared Sacred

Posted on Dec 28th, 2005 by Yuri : Dharma girl Yuri
I just watched the documentary "Scared Sacred"and of course, afterwards, my head is spinning with many thoughts, ideas, and hopes. Documentary tends to put my brain into thought mode and I think and it continues while a sense of nervousness lingers strongly in the chest area.  And I have to do something so here I am writing my heart out. Perhaps my body is reacting due to suffering, negativities, and pain seen in the film and because the human body is as fragile as glass, we can relate, understand and therefore feel the sufferings of others.

I highly recommend seeing this film when it is available because it takes you into someone's search about what is sacred and what is important about it and then the gem of his search somewhat encourages the search within ourselves. It reminds us all of the possible sufferings and existed sufferings happening in the past and now. Why is this a good thing? Well, life is about opposites and it is because of the opposites that bring the best out of mankind.

Thank you so much: all the team members that was involved in the production of this film. May all beings be able to see, feel, understand, share and learn from each other's suffering. May the seeds of compassion, loving-kindness and peace blossom each of us each time we experience negativity and suffering.

Something to think about or be amuse

THE ZEBRA QUESTION

I asked the zebra, are you black with white stripes?

Or are you white with black stripes?

The zebra asked me,

Are you noisy with some quiet times?

Or are you quiet with some noisy times?

Are you neat with some sloppy ways?

Or are you sloppy with some neat ways?

Are you happy with some sad days?

Or are you sad with some happy days...?

I'll never ask about zebra stripes again!

By Shel Silverstein


Now, would you still ask about zebra stripes?

I would because it is fun and I get to know more about the zebra stripes and zebra ways. Perhaps, I can learn about the zebra's day. Go Zaadz! (Yuri)
