hebrew proverb - don't ask questions

אל תשאל שאלות לא תשמע שקרים

Al Tishal she'elot Lo tishma shkarim

don't ask questions, you won't hear lies

(it's for a cheating husband situation imo but it works well for a lot of cases)

SinQ - "Who's Afraid of Noises"

On Groove Salad. Nice fading wavelengths. Echoing voice.

Philip K. Dick - "The Man in the High Castle"

The Axes have won, the USA is separated in a Nazi occupied part and a Japanese occupied part. People read the "I Ching" to make choices. A forbidden book, "The Grasshopper lies heavy", details an alternate reality where the Axes have lost...

Japanese vs Western thinking. Tao. I Ching.

At the very end the book turns out to be "written by" the I Ching (as Philip K Dick used the I Ching to write this book). Why it was written? Inner truth... because it's the truth.

Nice read, but I wasn't blown away. I think I'm missing the deeper connections here, which is a shame. Maybe I should read more Leonard Cohen poetry, then try again.
