BATTLE CHANT OF ATL'AMAN
Would you know the meaning of laughter and joy!
Then come play with us now the game of life,
If you care to try! If you dare to lose!
Roll now , roll, roll again, roll the dice of life.
Listen to the rhythm of life divine,
Feel, touch and absorb the pulse of earth.
Fly true the spear! Wield sure the sword!
And roll now, roll, roll again the dice of life!
What can you lose, friend, but an empty life!
What can you w/in, friend, but a full rich life!
Win or lose, try now! Roll the dice of life!
If you care to live, friend! If you dare to die!

Existence
MAN'S ONLY JUSTIFICATION FOR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IS
TO LEARN; THIS IS HIS DESTINY WHICH HE CANNOT AVOID
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Théun Mares
A Dream Within a Dream
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
Edgar Allan Poe
Auguries of Innocence
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
William Blake
Words
Whenever man is faced with something new or something
which he cannot grasp with his rational mind he immediately sets
about describing it and explaining it with words. By the time he
has finished explaining it, it fits very comfortably and securely
into his view of the world. Such is the power and the trap of
words.
Théun Mares
I AM THAT
Within the prison of your world appears a man who tells you that
the world of painful contradictions, which you have created, is
neither continuous nor permanent and is based on a misapprehension.
He pleads with you to get out of it, by the same way by which you got
into it. You got into it by forgetting what you are and you will get
out of it by knowing yourself as you are.
