Early Mornings

it is 6.05 am now.

Just woke up on a friday morning, not that i have school. It is approachin the end of the semester and the lectures have started to taper off. Today is the first the days where because of the tapering of of lectures, i do not have to go to school. And why am i up so early? I have no idea too.

Today is a good day. i do not have to get up early to rush for anything. So i get up early just because i got up early. Then i have to get a mic and a spliter for the mic. We have invited Ven Chi Boon for a talk on the Zen Mind. Hopefully more students come. If not it'll be such a waste for them. Ppl nowadays have so many deadlines to meet, they hardly have time for themselves. THeir lives being led by these deadlines.

Yesterday I was just thinking......i have forgotten what i was thinking about... someone should do a live recording blog. Something like a picture blog with voice recording so that ppl like me with terrible memory no nid to remember what to say. However, i was thinking and thinking something along the lines of how to go about our daily lives.... when i remembered reading about how the Zen masters would talk about experiencing this world as it is truely is. Truely drinking a cup of water. This kind of experience, all the time, 24/7. Is it even possible???

With my Mu koan....i am not getting anywhere with it. It still seems to be stuck in some intellectual crevice in my mind among the many other things.
