Astrology and philosophy

There are large groups of people studying astrology and philosophy trying to understand what's going on inside them (and everybody else), and they spend many hours everyday talking about them, defending their viewpoints, "developing" their viewpoints, flitting around from cafe, to cell phone, to email list.



Of course, there are just as many studying cosmology and psychology trying to do the same thing.



But it's all top to bottom attempting to overcome a limitation (your "mind") by means of the limitation itself.



This is the basis of all indirect ways - filling the centers with external energies and massaging and caressing and calibrating those energies - never caring how the energies got in that empty bowl, only swimming in the bowl of soup therein.



The direct action that one can take, is never mechanical, and never automatic - unlike the filling of centers and calibrating of energies - and sounds more like silence, than cacophony.
