Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
Ted Mayett
I'm not going to post the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam here, and not even
a url to the proper translation. Unless requested. And notice I say
"to the proper translation." This is because there *is* a proper
translation among the many made for this work. And I know the proper
one because I am a Rubaiyat junkie, and as such have read all the
translations.
The Tech and the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam:
A Win if you will. I've been reading poetry from maybe about 8 years
old, and loving the stuff, and even wrote some decent stuff at about
10 years old. Well they told me it was quite decent anyway, teachers
and such.
And I think it was about 10 years old I come across a book titled
Immortal Poems of the English Language. And in this paperback is the
Rubaiyat, among many other poems. And one time sitting outside on a
stoop and reading Poe's Conquerer Worm and this big guy comes along,
an adult . He says, "what are you reading?". I tell him, he takes
the book and reads the Worm, then he asks me what the poem is about?
I tell him, he grunts in disgust, returns the book and walks away. I
suppose at that young an age we are not supposed to understand things
that clearly.
But what I never understood was the Rubaiyat. And years and years
pass, I keep coming back to this work/poem. And it is a long poem, a
word count in software shows it to be about 3,000 words.
I'm probably in my 30's now, still reading and trying to understand
this thing, but I just don't understand it, I just keep trying and
getting nowhere. I have an idea of the meaning, but I know I'm
missing something.
So I think to myself, what about all this MU stuff here, why don't I
do it, look up every single word I have no definition for. I take my
copy of Immortal Poems and go to the courseroom with an afternoon to
spare. I take a desk and load it up with different dictionary's, and
I have access to encyclopedias in the courseroom. Britannica and
World Book as I recall, Britannica for sure. I even have a demo kit
at hand, although I never really had a use for those.
And I do it, I look up every word. Words like 'aureate', a simple
word it turns out. And names like 'Pehlevi, Jamshyd's' and etc.
And somewhere it happened, maybe as I looked up words, maybe because I
read it again after looking everything up. But it happened, I
understood the Rubaiyat!
I might have spent an entire week laughing. Went to sleep laughing,
woke up laughing, and spent all day laughing. I laughed and laughed
because I had found the True Bible. This was not your thieving
Christians, not your Clears trying to hide their running noses. This
was not pretense, this was a truth, a philosophy properly and truly
lived. And for all my massive reading, this was the absolute funniest
thing I had/have ever read.
Oh I couldn't live the Rubaiyat, bah, but I could appreciate it, that
I could do.
So, this is a unique ng here. You come here to learn something, or to
sell something. Or like me you come for both of these things. And
what I would sell here is this: The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.
"The Rubaiyat is not a single poem, but is rather a collection of
verses written by or attributed to 'Umar Khayyam, the Persian
mathematician, philosopher and astronomer who lived from
ca. 1048 - 1122."
I would say that a True Meatball is a Real OT. And that also a
True OT would be a Real Meatball. And this is because the Rubaiyat
ties it all together.
Well, a lot to cover here. After all I am here to make a sale. Funny
is that I have the closing arguments pretty much formulated, but the
middle arguments are all muddied at this time. And even more
interesting is that in reading the posts here, I'm finding those
middle arguments. Things I would say, are already being said in the
context of Clearing or past lives or what have you.
Well, time for me to get busy here, time to start responding to other
posts....
Anybody wants the url to the proper translation of this work, or I
post the entire thing here, just ask and it will be done.

Post it, or I'll deliberately post an inferior copy.

And to boot, it is an unfinished work. He lost track in the middle,
I'm told.
What could be more ot than vigillance (or committment, perhaps), eh?

I bet you bucks isf you right as professional a paper as you can it
will be a MAJOR WIN, and even more than you expect it to be. If you
write it, they will come!

Thanx for this post. No scholar, but I remember I liked something
about this work when I read it.

I'm thinking they say that it is not the work of one person. But I
don't think it covers past lives enough, a lot of christianity to it,
but not that much on immortality. So maybe he did lose track in the
middle.

Maybe a true OT to go into and out of -40 Total Failure at will?

This is very cool, major line charge blowing off from

-400.00 Spiritual Death.
Since Hubby said that all aberration is enforced basic truth, a fun
process is alternately mocking up being nothing at the top and being
nothing at the bottom.
Same state, but different considertion cementing it in at
the bottom.

Did he say that?
What I remember which seems more relevant, was that an aberration is
an ability out of control (or was it compulsive)
All best wishes,

-400.0 Spiritual Death
(Below this is 'out the bottom' ((meaning presumably a
a return to native state by default. Needless to say it is
the hard way to go Clear, but does indicate that one day all men
will attain the awakened state.)) )

Ok, so 'out the bottom'. Is there also an 'out the top'?
Native State 400.0 Sovereignty

From Adore:
WANTING + KNOWING = DOING
One computes what to do, from what one wants and what
one knows.
Doing then either succeeds or fails on a gradient scale.
The intensity of tone/emotion on the tone scale is directly related
to the intensity of WANTING.
The 'frequency' of tone/emotion, position on the tone scale,
is directly related to one's concept of probability of failure
or success.
Each tone is USED from the top on down, at least from 4.0 down,
as each tone fails, the next lower tone is used.
Each tone is a repeating pattern of flow, ridge and dispersal.
Thus tones have physical harmonics of each other unrelated
to numerical frequency harmonics if such even apply.

What is there to explain? Prime postulates can be made anywhere on
the tone scale, for better or worse.
Sometimes the evil just becomes too ludicrous, and the being starts
to laugh it out of existence.
I mean how hard can you hold onto being a losing symbol, before you
flip back into source orientation point?
To some extent one has TO TRY to go down tone scale, and it is
always an effort to survive, to persist, to not let end of game happen.
Nothing is pulling him down.
