matin kesäjuhlat



Already over a month ago. But we spent a weekend at Matti's [Maija's course mate] summer house to celebrate his annual summer party. It was one of those first still warm nights that darkness came falling during the evening sauna session. ...and you could see scattered lights on the opposite shore.



Played beach-volley and mölkky. ...throwing sticks!

evil monkeys revisited

How is it possible that humans killed in excess of 100 million fellow humans in the twentieth century alone? Humans inflicting pain of such magnitude on one another is beyond anything you can imagine. And that's not taking into account the mental, emotional and physical violence, the torture, pain, and cruelty they continue to inflict on each other as well as on other sentient beings on a daily basis.
Do they act in this way because they are in touch with their natural state, the joy of life within? Of course not. Only people who are in a deeply negative state, who feel very bad indeed, would create such a reality as a reflection of how they feel. Now they are engaged in destroying nature and the planet that sustains them. Unbelievable but true. Humans are a dangerously insane and very sick species. That's not a judgment. Ifs a fact. It is also a fact that the sanity is there underneath the madness. Healing and redemption are available right now.

aura of goa



As mentioned before, I rediscovered goa-trance. It's relatively popular in Finland. Last weekend there was a 'big' party. Danced the night away. An advantage of living in the city.
