FatherPaul died

Recommended Posts

I'm posting this here because not all of us look into the Lobby much, so I just read it myself.

 

My condolences to the family.

I didn't always like what he wrote, but he was a friend, made me laugh from my heart at least once too. I hope his next life will be a good one as I "give water to the dead".

Thank you for posting, Peter. My thoughts go out to him...

Not having been here for a while, it was a saddening surprise to hear this.

 

I must confess I was always too 'shy' to enter into conversation with Father Paul,as his writing made me feel immediately out of my depth ( I mean this in a totally complimentary way).The impression he gave me was of one allready living what I am only barely beginning to approach.

 

At the very least he was a damn good Daoist Poet !

 

Sincere Regards,Cloud :)

I'll miss him... and am saddened by the loss to our community. I offer my prayers with those of his closer friends and kin. He was a great boon to us here.

Can't really add to what has already been said. I think Father Paul was a true Tao Bum. My best wishes to his family.

To ease your comfort, to ease your pain,

Know that he (we) will rise again,

not into a body,

But into the light,

that is so bright,

 

Some call it Heaven,

some call it Tao,

 

It / we are all there,

It is always aware,

 

No reason to be concerned,

Nothing to discern,

It just is.

 

It is bliss beyond imagination,

It is being,

It is consciousness,

It is the immortal Tao

 

And we are that,

I AM, I AM, I AM

 

We all will cross over,

either aware or not,

To the miracle beyond comprehension

 

Obi Wan,

Your loved ones too,

Are all there

 

It is everything and no thing,

Ohm/Amen :)

 

Blessed be!

Dear Father Paul,

 

I hope your as much a hoot in your yin body as you were in your yang body!

 

Maybe I can meet you one day, in another form.

 

I salute you!

 

And happy pancakes!
