Since you posted that essay by David Loy in late Sept. I have been having an
enjoyable ride with aspects of Buddhism I was completly unaware of.

Are you familiar with the Yogacara "branch"?

Have been reading - Living Yogacara: An Introduction to Consciousness-Only
Buddhism Tagawa Shun'ei, Charles Muller

Wow going to have to read it multiple times I'm sure.

Imo one of the more overlooked ideas of ACIM is the "its all thought" idea.
Yogacara examines this in detail as the central tenet of Yogacara (to put in
my words that is).

Thanks again for posting that article. I read a book by David Loy but like
the article better. I sent the article to a couple of friends, one who
insists in the reality of his body/personality. I knew the article would
make him mad, it did, "David Loy just wrote in a scholarly manner to show
off."

Thanks for posting about it. I will have to look it up now, I guess I
messed the post or didn't give enough attention to it. I'm always open to
learning.
I make pictures and affirmations/sayings for my desktop and came across
this awhile ago, so put it on one of my pictures.

Now isn't that lovely. Put a simple, wooden frame on it
and you could sell it without any problem. Over and over
again.

That would be good way to spread good ideas around.

I probably could. I know someone who used to work as a framer who might
help. I woudl have to get good prints made, not my home printer. But,
printing them out on cardstock (which I like better than glossy paper) might
give it a rustic like look.
Can I use sayings by Buddha? They wouldn't be copyright I don't think.
Something to think about. I used to print cards (like notecards) with
pictures like this on them, but never got going at it like a business. Seems
like it cost so much for supplies and how much can one sell notecards for?
I mainly end up giving things away, because I love the feeling of sharing.

Something to think about.
Look through the books on gutenberg.org. They are all in the
Public Domain. So is the Desiderata.

Go for the Transcendentalists for starters. Like Emerson and
Thoreau. And Whitman. All of their works are at gutenberg.org.
And all of those wonderful women poets from Early America.

Trees

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

Yeah, but I don't like doing something unless it feels good (right) to me.
Doing creative things, art, camera, photoshop, etc. is something I do for
the "joy" of it. If I can get into something that brings in money and feels
like that, good.

Of course. But remember that selling is sharing in both

their surplus cash. Everyone gets to share.

I kind of like the feeling that I share what I love to do, and some get
something good from it.
This opens the flow and the Universe gives back. It doesn't have to be
from the exact person who got something from my pictures. Maybe this comes
from knowing a lot of people who don't have "surplus cash". But, still might
get something (good, uplifting) from my pictures.
As I've been told "with an attitude like that, no wonder you don't have
a lot of money".
But, it's uplifting to uplift others.
You liked the picture and felt good about it? You can set it as
wallpaper on your desktop. You liking it and apparently feeling good about
it uplifted me. I will talk to someone about framing prints, though I might
have to offer them on ebay, I don't live in a very big (populated) area.
What do you think would be good to charge for them? I don't know anything
about that. I've seen pictures (art, drawings, phots) for sale on ebay, some
seem very low priced some very high. One looked like a kid drew it with a
crayon and they wanted $1200 for it! I didn't remember to look back and see
if it sold.
Some others from one of my online albums...(again, with the idea of putting
them on the desktop) Some are course related, some Abraham-Hicks. Some misc.
If I read or hear something I like, I sometimes find a picture to put it on
and put it on the desktop for awhile. I didn't always put the source of the
quote on because they were mainly made for me (my desktop) Light and Joy
and Peace abide in me is from ACIM (lesson)

Those are all VERY nice. You have a talent.

I do not know about prices. If I were you I'd pay myself at LEAST
$20/hour for the time I put into it plus expenses/materials. That
calculation ought to give you a ballpark figure for the price of
a single piece. I would not check out "the competition". Do your
own thing.

You could also do custom jobs for people who have their
own sayings they want you to display for them.

Thanks again for posting that article. I read a book by David Loy
but like the article better. I sent the article to a couple of
friends, one who insists in the reality of his body/personality. I
knew the article would make him mad, it did, "David Loy just wrote in
a scholarly manner to show off."

Thanks for posting about it. I will have to look it up now, I guess I
messed the post or didn't give enough attention to it. I'm always open to
learning.
I make pictures and affirmations/sayings for my desktop and came across
this awhile ago, so put it on one of my pictures.
