2012.01.09 19:00 - On Not Keeping Up

The Guardian for this meeting was Eliza Madrigal. The comments are by Eliza Madrigal who found it impossible to keep with the pace of chat, as did Contrecourant. There is a session referenced toward the end that has a wonderful dialog between Genesis and Stim. I neglected to post the link and highly recommend taking time to read that:

Multiverse1 Resident: saw beads of sweat from another make an impressive statement

Eliza Madrigal: Well, hm... maybe we should discuss something we can all partake in then :)

Multiverse1 Resident: take the sl camera and move it into the past, upon an object and you will see
Multiverse1 Resident: simple, my 1st mantra
Multiverse1 Resident: but, perhaps in another tymeframe or, continent

Multiverse1 Resident: I did make notes this day. And I will state this for you Eliza and Samuo, if you ever want me to "Shut Up" all you have to do is ask
Eliza Madrigal: thanks Multi, mostly all I tend to ask sometimes is that we all are attentive to making room for many participants :) thank you
oO0Oo Resident: that sounds a little hmmm harsh multi..
Multiverse1 Resident: my rl friends know this and do such, I can be stupid or such , but I am always open
Multiverse1 Resident: I am Me, You are you, and We are We.

Multiverse1 Resident: Hi Contre
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Contre, nice to see you again
ContreCourant Resident: Hello
Multiverse1 Resident: don't take me harshly , please
ContreCourant Resident: are you in your own bubble Multi?
Multiverse1 Resident: yes, sort of, Bruce gave it to me.
oO0Oo Resident: Hi ContreCourant. Thank you for the gift.. how nice. of you.
ContreCourant Resident: Which gift?

Multiverse1 Resident: I was pondering the beginning and ending of the christmas tree, actually
ContreCourant Resident: Should always come down on the 6th
Multiverse1 Resident: and mantras
Multiverse1 Resident: it is the 9th?
Multiverse1 Resident: 10th perhaps in New Guinea

Multiverse1 Resident: Hi Rhi
Eliza Madrigal: Hello Rhi :)
ContreCourant Resident: :-) It should have been taken down I guess- by epiphany
Rhiannon Dragoone: hi, Multi!
Rhiannon Dragoone: Hi Eliza!
ContreCourant Resident: I guess whoewver put it up didn'tknow
Multiverse1 Resident: hmm epiphany

oO0Oo Resident: @ Contre (a bracelet.. object named Christmas Gift) I believe the notice said it was from you.
oO0Oo Resident: Hi Rhi
Rhiannon Dragoone: hi Samud
ContreCourant Resident: Oh that's interesting- someone gave it to me. I guess it's a gift that keeps on giving. Did everyone get one?
Multiverse1 Resident: Ido not celebrate any such occurances, sorry to be in the micro on that

Eliza Madrigal: For the last four weeks at this time we've been having a discussion about Appreciation which I've enjoyed very much and hope that others have too. We can continue that tonight if others like, or just see what comes up. :)
ContreCourant Resident: these are just traditions we are talking about
Multiverse1 Resident: I have studied holidays and festivals thoughout cultures and tymes
Multiverse1 Resident: yes traditions
Rhiannon Dragoone: I hate to be a bother, but could someone rez a fire next to me?
Multiverse1 Resident: I understand such
Multiverse1 Resident: no problems here
ContreCourant Resident: sorry Eliza - talking about Christmas traditions, not Pavilion traditions..
Multiverse1 Resident: ha ha
Eliza Madrigal: oh, its fine...
Eliza Madrigal: whatever others prefer
ContreCourant Resident: I dont have one
ContreCourant Resident: I'll check!
Multiverse1 Resident: I have a link for you from Korel Rhi and othrers, was very interesting. Peruse it in the future.

Eliza Madrigal: (loving this box that Boxy made)
Multiverse1 Resident: I do too!
ContreCourant Resident: what does it do?
Rhiannon Dragoone: You're in a bubble, Multi. Hope nothing's wrong with your immune system

--BELL--

Multiverse1 Resident: The 7 fires Prophesy / file:///C:/Users/normal/Documents/7-...s-prophecy.htm
Multiverse1 Resident: oops, sorry bell
Multiverse1 Resident: your wlcome bell
Multiverse1 Resident: this one is better
Eliza Madrigal giggles... wonders if Rhi wears a bubble still nude?
Multiverse1 Resident: http://www.potawatomiheritage.org/hi...fires-prophecy
Multiverse1 Resident: it's a story of her tribe
Multiverse1 Resident: or one of her tribes
Multiverse1 Resident: for the future
Rhiannon Dragoone: Eliza, well...I have an alt who is forced to be naked; she wears a clit ring with RLV, and a sim owner has locked out her clothes; no attachments. She can't even weear a broom to sweep the floors
Multiverse1 Resident: haha
Rhiannon Dragoone: I however, can wear a bubble.
Multiverse1 Resident: figured that one Rhi
Rhiannon Dragoone: Refuse to wear a broom. lol
Multiverse1 Resident: want a bubble? there are free
Rhiannon Dragoone: Sure. Since no one is building me a fire.
Multiverse1 Resident: Bruce gave it to me
Multiverse1 Resident: fire on the mountain, another of my mantras
ContreCourant Resident: I have no fire in my inventory, do I?

Rhiannon Dragoone: oh, wait. I know
Multiverse1 Resident: I do but am not permitted
Rhiannon Dragoone: There!
Eliza Madrigal: :))
Rhiannon Dragoone: Much better.
ContreCourant Resident: looks like you're warm now!
Rhiannon Dragoone: I was given this my first week in SL but a guy who thought I looked cold.
Rhiannon Dragoone: He was my first friend in SL. OH, you may know him. Dar Innes
Rhiannon Dragoone: He comes here sometimes
Eliza Madrigal: ah, have met Dar
Eliza Madrigal: also in meditation groups I think
Eliza Madrigal: not for a while, though
Rhiannon Dragoone: yeah, he hasn't been on in a while
ContreCourant Resident: dar?
Rhiannon Dragoone: yeah, Dr
ContreCourant Resident: Dr. dar?
Rhiannon Dragoone: Dar
Rhiannon Dragoone: the other was a typo
Multiverse1 Resident: oh
Multiverse1 Resident: so do you have mantras Rhia

ContreCourant Resident: Eliza- you must be tired. You keep nodding off!
Multiverse1 Resident: nods
Rhiannon Dragoone: Well, I do but I haven't used them in a while, so I don't rember them. I sometimes use the Nirim Shoshu one. "Nam, myoko, rengay ko"
ContreCourant Resident: what is there to discuss tonight?

Rhiannon Dragoone: I mostly defocus when I meditate or do moving meditation
Rhiannon Dragoone: Make my katas into a form of meditation
oO0Oo Resident: [apologise.. I was diverted by some important IMs.. back]
Multiverse1 Resident: defocus, I like that
Rhiannon Dragoone: More important than us, Samud? Hmmmm?
ContreCourant Resident: VIP IMs
Multiverse1 Resident: nasty girl

Eliza Madrigal: apologies for nodding... actually found myself chasing a butterfly that came from Boxy's box....
Eliza Madrigal: and landed in an older session where the question was asked...

Eliza Madrigal: genesis Zhangsun: well since you ask I wanted to ask you about what meditation is really about if we use the starting point that we have already attained what we want

Rhiannon Dragoone catches a snowflake on her tongue before her fire melts it
Multiverse1 Resident: nod off again I might
Multiverse1 Resident: hmm fire?
Multiverse1 Resident: don't see it
Eliza Madrigal: apologies for interrupting am very interested in mantras
Multiverse1 Resident: ???
ContreCourant Resident: Bows
Multiverse1 Resident: still have them
Eliza Madrigal: Bye Contre

ContreCourant Resident: good evening everyone. I am having a hard time keeping up

                              (I was too)

Multiverse1 Resident: Bye Cotre
Multiverse1 Resident: Contre
ContreCourant Resident: Take care all
Rhiannon Dragoone: nite, Contre!
Rhiannon Dragoone: tc!

oO0Oo Resident: This session .. feels to me.. like it has a lot to do with introversion/extroversion. Having said that.. Interesting Eliza. I wonder. Perhaps meditation is a kind of appreciation for the fruition in that case. First thought.
oO0Oo Resident: Bye Conte
oO0Oo Resident: gtsy
Multiverse1 Resident: nice thought Sam
Multiverse1 Resident: intro-extro
Rhiannon Dragoone: Well, not so much introversion, as introspection, I should think
Multiverse1 Resident: better yes

Rhiannon Dragoone: You focus inward; well, but that's not true of moving meditation.
Rhiannon Dragoone: It's all external.
Multiverse1 Resident: I have had such a day
Multiverse1 Resident: it is very pleasing

--BELL--

Rhiannon Dragoone: oh, good. NOrmally when people say, "I have had such a day," it is unpleasant
Multiverse1 Resident: hmm
Multiverse1 Resident: why?
Eliza Madrigal: (bell)
Multiverse1 Resident: sry
Rhiannon Dragoone: Well, maybe because they're focus is negative. I like the fact that you "had such a day," and it was pleasant.

Eliza Madrigal: @ Rhi regarding earlier comment, heard today : "Outside work no longer left outside" Alan Watts

Rhiannon Dragoone: oh, yeah, maybe that could still make moving meditation inside.
Multiverse1 Resident: Eliza Madrigal: - We shall not cease from exploration. And the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time. TSEliot
Rhiannon Dragoone: And work can be meditation--Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance
Eliza Madrigal: indeed

Rhiannon Dragoone: When I clean my revolver, I get into a Zen state.
Rhiannon Dragoone: For that matter, target shooting gets me there too.
Multiverse1 Resident: good example Rhia
Rhiannon Dragoone: ty, Multi
Multiverse1 Resident: For me it is the music
Multiverse1 Resident: my mantras

Multiverse1 Resident: simple
Rhiannon Dragoone: hi Steve
Eliza Madrigal: Hi Stevenaia :)
