"The mind can get you to the door but it can't get you through"
the Works of Alan J. Rudner.
'Mankind is made up of individual men. Individual men are needed, indeed obliged, if the capacity is there, to affect a complete reversal, a total personal revolution; an ultimate shift of perspective and motivation. Not all men, but for those capable it is a must, both for the sake of their eternal soul and for the sake of the creation itself.'
Alan J. Rudner devoted over forty years in fulfilling this obligation. Approaching Infinity represents the archive of collected works previously printed and distributed privately and now made available in the public domain for the glory of God and sanity on earth.

Poem of the day
it's really for the friends
i write
i might
i could be told sometime
i need to say
another line
that could be heard
from somewhere else
for those still reaching
still saying 'ouch'
convinced within
their servitude
that all is hateful
all is crude
perhaps would like
to hear a voice
that indicates
there is a choice
Observation
Don’t hold onto thoughts, don’t get too fixed on something. If you do, you miss the next thing, which is reality - and it’schanging all the time. If you can ‘be’ and also reflect on something - good. But if you lose your Being, you lose contact with whatever else is going on in the room. What, are you ready to let the defence-lawyer talk now? I’m a little bit stirring up your ‘personality’ at the moment. I’m putting my finger in the hornet’s nest - the part that’s always trying to figure out, figure out, figure out! And, if I can get you angry enough there - even though you know you could swallow and say it doesn’t matter - then maybe you could find yourself behind all that bulshit. Don’t think about it. Psst! I should be able to talk to you like this and you remember me in the same way as when I give you a kiss on the cheek. There you go! That’s the real you, and that’s the real me. If you can remember that, you won’t mind me giving you an ‘elbow’! You understand?
