Book Of _____
Nov. 5th, 2005 11:09 amLast night, after my Battlestar Galactica marathon (four episodes in a row), I picked up a small notebook that was living in my purse for many months, and found a lot of notes about spiritual practice and meditiations that I had simply lost track of.
This morning during my LJ reading, I copied and saved a Rumi poem from
iswari and the description of a ritual from
anglican_druid, filing them in very different folders on my hard drive.
And I'm realizing that it would be a really good idea to finally put all my spiritual / magical / meditational material in one place: rituals, poetry, prayers, notes-to-self, and etc., so I can actually go back and find and use them in a consistent fashion.
For me, a computer is a lovely storage facility, but it's not much use when I'm in a meditative or contemplative mode.
I need the feel of paper against my fingertips. . . the ability to turn pages quickly or slowly. . . to open a book at random or flip through pages until something catches my eye.
And an index. A really good index.
