wulf,

I don't know about the fleas thing.... Steve..., yeah, fleas. I kid. Really. Ok, I'm sorry Steve.

Personally, I would rather be a monkeyman than a flea man. To each his or her own.

Actually, this myth sounds much like the Big Bang Myth. The Chinese, at least some of the Chinese, were like some of those found amongst other ancient civilizations that were aware of more than modern history would suppose. I can't help but wonder what the night sky must have looked like when our world was populated by millions of fleas rather than billions of monkeys. Even just a hundred years ago the night sky must have been quite the show that must have attracted at least to a degree all of the finest minds on Earth. Even the lesser minds must have been held in its spell.

Today I am afraid that most of us have become lesser minds for want of mystery. The modern fad of existential extremus doubtus could do with a rich star field to re-awaken the wonder of it all. The artificially "man"ufactured Technological Dome over our world is sealing out more than the dark but the light as well.

Caveat: When I say that from the first totality is a unitive one I hope everyone realizes that I am saying that from the first it is as if or like everything is a unitive one. More like a unitive one than a numerical one. Unity is a quality, Monism is a quantity. Existence cannot be quantified for its sum is greater than its parts. Greater than one but undivided. The tao that can be numbered is not the eternal Tao. But its qualities cannot be denied if one's third eye is open. If one's mystical heart is open. The eternal Tao is like a unitive one. Like a mustard seed. Like a family. Like cool man.
