tomorrow never knows

turn off your mind, relax
and float down stream
it is not dying
it is not dying

lay down all thought
surrender to the void
it is shining
it is shining

that you may see
the meaning of within
it is being
it is being

that love is all
and love is everyone
it is knowing
it is knowing

that ignorance and hate
may mourn the dead
it is believing
it is believing

but listen to the
colour of your dreams
it is not living
it is not living

or play the game
existence to the end
of the beginning
of the beginning
of the beginning
of the beginning
of the beginning
of the beginning

This resonates with what you've posted in the comment section of Reya's posts about the boomers. Is that what sparked this?

bonnie, i watched a film of john's childhood and youth and it brought so much into perspective that i thought of this piece of music and then the choice was cemented by a posting over on reya's blog that caused me to think out loud (as usual). steven
