Fire in the galley,
Fire down below,
Boyen came lately,
Boyen got aglow;
Boyen said loudly:
If the heat
Had you beat
Take a deck seat.

Dung Beetle & Dung Ball As Metaphor of Man & His Consciousness
Just as a dung ball is all the dung beetle has got and needs to sustain him through life, so is consciousness the substance or essence to sustain man through this life and beyond.

About Me
- WordWalker
- Dungun, Terengganu, Malaysia
- I take cognizance that I am a soulseed from the divine nursery sown into the wilds of existence to be subjected to a few human-defining knocks and some soul-shaking falls before being able to sprout spiritual wings. Failure is not an option, all will fly eventually. Just a question of how many lessons it takes before being able to take flight to a fully awakened state. The rest of my life story, and the arguments in my writings, follow from the premise.

Now this piece I like -- a pithy and witty take on one of my favourite chants as a child, Fire Down Below.
Take a deck seat -- that's good advice, indeed.
