Oceanus

explorer's wake

"The adventure is always and everywhere a passage beyond the veil of the known into the unknown; powers that watch at the boundary are dangerous; to deal with them is risky; yet for anyone with competence and courage the danger fades." Joseph Campbell

Oceanus, one of the Titans is sometimes considered to be at the origin of all things. This is the god of the backward-flowing river Ocean, which bounds the earth and from which all rivers flow and every sea, and all the springs and wells. In order to reach the Underworld it is necessary to cross this river

For the realization of ultimate truth, you have to pay the price ~ and the price is nothing but dropping the ego. So when such a moment comes, don't hesitate. Dancingly, disappear... with a great laughter, disappear; with songs on your lips, disappear. Osho

  1. I fully intend to disappear - and be singing and dancing as i do so. Why? I will be sure in the knowledge that the mundainities of this world will not follow me.
