一座演化中的島嶼

the tree
grows
with
the light,
so do we.

字河。總是在跌入睡眠前，字句像河水，流過腦海邊緣。這時倘若不是起身寫下，並擔著失眠的困擾，就只能任它慢慢流逝，在醒來後不復追想，或靜待下一次的偶遇。

倚門而立，是倚在門外，還是門內？　

I left because I realized that the only language I could use on an audience was to take bombs out of my pockets and throw them in their faces in a gesture of unmistakable aggression.
-- Antonin Artaud to André Breton

當人們自以為發現真相，就再也沒有真實了。

The world is a great animal, and we live within it as worms live within us.
-- Tommaso Campanella (1568-1639)

時間，如果存在，對我來說總是以不規則方式在跳動、反摺、疊縮、旋繞、推移。也許是一年，十年，一百年，或一千年前，我不確定，也不再重要。偶遇，在經常發生的同時，也顯得如此稀有。一則偶遇畫出的圓，透過另一則偶遇，回到原點。原點，不是起點，也不是終點，而是一縷線索兩端打出的結。

The hardest saying in the Bible is that of St. Paul, addressing the Galatians: "God is not macked," and this saying applies to the relationship between man and his ecology. It is of no use to plead that a particular sin of pollution or exploitation was only a little one or that it was commited with the best intentions. Or that "If I didn't, somebody else would have." The processes of ecology are not mocked.
-- Gregory Bateson

The immanent mind is not "mosked".
-- Gregory Bateson

消失，也就是無所不在。自由，擺脫存在基點。潰散，無法指認邊界。

創化。自然地創造與化成。

情緒，流離失所。

表面。 美麗的皮膚，靠近邊界的心。

心的真實，是這樣的過程，無視於疼痛，鑿出心房的門與窗。

In fact, what we mean by informaiton -- is a difference which makes a difference, and it is able to make a difference because the neural pathways along which it travels and is continually transformed are themselves provided with energy. The pathways are ready to be triggered. We may even say that the question is already implicit in them.
-- Gregory Bateson

The unit of survival is a flexible organism-in-its-environment.
-- Gregory Bateson

From Navdanya's Diary


Biopiracy is a term used to describe how corporations from the developed world allegedly claim ownership of or otherwise take unfair advantage of, the genetic resources and traditional knowledge and technologies of developing countries. This creates an inequality between developing countries rich in biodiversity and developed countries that have power pharmaceutical industries that can exploit this resource. ...繼續閱讀

Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926)
Tr. Stephen Mitchell


Again and again, however we know the landscape of love
and the little churchyard there, with its sorrowing names,
and the frighteningly silent abyss into which the others
fall: again and again the two of us walk out together
under the ancient trees, lie down again and again
among the flowers, face to face with the sky.

這個月份
出生與死亡
門檻的禁忌
無內無外
不進不出
倚靠著
界中的虛線

耐受力。忍耐、承受、力量。
