    About this ebook

    The texts and poems in the book "nonsense" are dedicated to all seekers. The seekers know that the identifying search should be abandoned. The compulsion of searching by the ego comes endlessly again and again. The thoughts of the ego and the identification with the liberating teachings usually come endlessly again and again.
    We are constantly caught by new thoughts. Meditation and contemplation help: to free oneself again and again, to dissolve the mental hardenings and aberrations again and again. To deal openly and freely with one's thoughts, also with these poems and aphorisms, can perhaps be a small help on the path of life.
