Poetry of music: Across the Universe, with Rufus Wainwright
John Lennon’s version of Across the Universe is a simple, plainitive acceptance of the impermanent world; Rufus adds some energy and wistfulness. See what you think…everybody sing along!
"When you commit yourself to the bodhisattva path, the path of helping others, you feel as if you have done it before and you have been doing it all along. It is like living up to your inheritance, or taking over your parents’ business. You feel that there is something quite natural and right about it." -- Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche

In the spirit of noting that organized crime, organized baseball, organized labour, and organized religion tend to engender controversy & occasional discord, I promise to be neither organized or critical of those who are.
