thinking spirituality problem
I think there's been a big problem between religion, or organized religion, and spirituality.
teacher waiting balance
We need balance. We need to balance our inner life with our outer life. Nature is always sitting there waiting to help us, but we have to do the work. Nature is probably the greatest teacher that well ever have... the earth and nature.
technology interesting leave-me-alone
You can always improve on something, the technology is different today, but I would leave it well alone. If there was something that was incomplete, that might be interesting... because I do that on my website.
thinking young enjoy
I love playing live now more than ever. I enjoy it, I think it keeps you young.
spiritual giving-up cutting
A lot of people that embark on spiritual endeavors tended to, especially in the '60s and '70s, they tended to give up what they had before and cut themselves off from their lives, previous life as it were. But, I don't think that one should do that.
way littles helping
Even if we are dead we help each other in some little way.
song writing people
I don't like people telling me what to do, or trying to MAKE me write songs.
crazy thinking people
I think people are turning inward more now cause the world's got in such a weird, crazy state. I think its making people think more about their life and what it is really that they are doing. And how do we interact with a world that's going crazy? It's a very important time.
thinking reason happens
I think that things happen for a reason.
thinking weakness want
I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics. Is that it became too money based and too controlling. It's just a weakness that we human beings have for control - we want one thing and then we want more and then we want more.
spiritual religious believe
What I believe in touches many aspects of religious and spiritual thought. Mainly I'm influenced and inspired by the eastern yogi's aspect of mysticism, Which is, I think, the future.
chords five
I learned five chords; I thought I knew it all.
spiritual mean buddhism
As an individual, I think you have to find your own path. I like the simplicity and purity of Hinduism and many elements of Buddhism. These are all means of accessing spiritual energy.
rain clouds scary
Being alone on the moors is scary; as the rain clouds settle in, it makes you realise your place in nature.
