Left Side:
this long
The unfolding,
If meant to be, it will
be.
I'm prepared. I've looked at the
breadth of the projects taken on by the Center for Digital
Research. From Willa Cather to an Encyclopedia of the Great Plains,
Professor Lahry is also an
illustration. St. Augustine + the
City of God.
Professor Yaroslav Komarowski is
Russian, teaches Buddhism at
the University of Nebraska.
Who's wooing who?
or it is simply exploratory?
Right Side:
What would I hope to accomplish?
What are the questions we
should be asking?
What is the message?
What are the
questions?
What's the deal with
left+right hand?
Why do this project?
There are
answers to
life's big questions
Hungers for
idealism.
If me believe
there is a dining of
spark in us, let's fan the flame
Evidence of the
potency of words.
The embrace of
the relevance of
the timeless
messages from all
traditions
The similar
conclusions
Awareness of
this particular
experience
documented
authentic
experience
Abstract art
inspired by
sacred
passages.
