"here is an old Sanskrit word, lila [leela], which means play. Richer than our word, it means divine play, the play of creation, destruction, and recreation, the folding and un-folding of the cosmos.".


Everybody goes on and on about karma, but until yesterday noone ever mentioned to me that even karma has a balancing force, lila, which noone goes on about much at all. Randomness. Chaos. The universe doing things simply for joy, or entertainment, or in fact simply because.

This idea pleases me greatly.

In other news, TheRightBastard arrives tomorrow. This also pleases me greatly. Los Angeles has been a blast so far, but I misses me some boy...
