Why Blue?
Today is one of those days when a deep melancholy descends. It comes from nowhere just as it will go to nowhere. Things seem pointless except for feeling. Pulled slightly under the surface, inward. Reading a new book 'If nobody speaks of remarkable things', it too has a melancholy about it. About fading connections and lost love and summers. Maybe this is the feeling which accompanies a deepening desire for love. It is a day when everything, the fabric of life seems in dissarray. At times this hints at being beautiful and profound but all is distant. Distant.

Hello Gambhiradaka,
I have had a look at your blog ( never thought people wrote such personal stuff for others to see, Bravo!)
You seem brave, you certainly have courage to put yourself though,... or is it the anonymity that gives you the courage?
In any case your standing for fear/love as centre of the wheel of life seems unjustified and let's face it is an instict (positive or negative that depends) not a driving human force.
Why are you so blue, so often? What is the meaning of Gambhiradaka? I think I know the 'daka' opp 'dakini'.
Sorry if I intruded. I wish you well.

Gambhira means deep. As in '...and deeper than did ever plummet sound , I'll drown my book'
If you read Trungpa, he seems to present the Dharma very much in these terms (fear).
