Subud Writers JOURNEY ON

JOURNEY ON
by Ismail Fido.

There is no shortage of bar room philosophers in Australia.

From the intellectuals of Parkville and Camperdown to the battlers of Lakemba and Lightning Ridge they solve the worlds problems.

Talk, talk, talk. Like rats. Gnaw, gnaw, gnaw.

Ancestors abroad did the same.

Wars, pogroms, plagues, famine. Their empty talk could not stem those.

“ Is there no hope then? “

Light breaks in Glastonbury, Rome, Jerusalem, Mecca, Delhi, Jakarta and Sydney. At different times but light is the same. Here and everywhere. Now and in Brisbane.

“ Lighten our darkness we beseech Thee O Lord “.

Outside the church the lecher, the drunk and the druggie go about their business.

Can you find God, or Truth, in Ecstasy?

“ What kind of ecstasy ? “

In tekkes* from Albania to Cairo they once whirled. Like Jalalludin. Not today’s tourist show. Sincerely. In order. Like planets round a sun. Like souls around God.

It took Shams of Tabriz – supposedly “ mad “ – to bring Rumi from scholarship to understanding. I would like to meet such a madman!

Bernhard Meister recounts stories of Cilandak and Sudarto 40 years ago after every latihan. If anyone else speaks he raises his voice a few decibels.

The curtain rises. The performance begins. Again.

Hank Marvin – Bernhard’s bosom buddy for years – listens entranced.

Siegfried Glockenspiel is to extend – on Lottery Commission money – the latihan hall.

Do all the renovations make us a better and happier group ?

“ Nearer, my God, to Thee. “

“ The ladies are to descend on the kitchen. “

“ I can’t wait. “

“ Really? “

The ladies descend, intent on tea and conversation. To beam at the favoured few. I move towards the exit door. They find me uninteresting.

Praise God! I can escape.

Subud Writers Especially the simple, way
Posted by Benjamin
Thursday, October 03, 2002
It is Sunday, the seventh of July. The commencement of his 27th year on earth. He got to her house around eight, just as the golden light of Chicago was mellowing deeper. She invited him in, they sprawled on the couch. He was buzzing with a thousand thoughts, rumbling them into her belly with his mouth and vocal chords. So many people swirling in his field, tastes of old friendships, conversations with her and her and him and him. He rests there, face buried into her slight paunch, trying to put everything in place.

Subud Writers A NEW BOOK ABOUT SEX
Posted by ManuelOliver
Wednesday, February 27, 2002
Emmanuel Williams invites submissions for a new book for young people

I've been moved to write a book for young people about sex. The book will be based on the question: Should I have sex with this person? - The assumption being that the couple in question aren't married. The aim of the book is not to try to answer this question for the reader, but rather to raise a number of issues, put forward a number of ideas, that will help the reader answer this question for him/herself.
