JWM
referred to someone as "young Gautama" Would that have been
Russ?
What about Jim
Croak? I notice his wooden sculpture is still on display at the ICA
building.

I can
remember he and Joe quietly chatting about song lyrics (on the West Side).
I seem to recall that he introduced Joe to Carlos Castaneda.
Perhaps Kaze might add a story or two. I think he left the Order
after 'The Great Turn'. I saw him in '77 while I was on Circuits for
Development. At that time he was comfortably 'born again'. He was a
startlingly lovely human being. As much as we had a poet laureate, it
would be Russ.

Dear David
Walters and all,
The small
part I recall of the late Russell Campbell is this: ( this will
need some help from others.)
Russell and
Kaye Hayes were assigned to work around the northern part of Australia-
around Darwin and to some of the Aboriginal Mission stations- Russell
used to wear sandals that he had made out of used tyres.
When Russell
was living in the Sydney House, he composed both the Contemplation song-
' Come walk with Francis' and the Being song. The music would be
blaring out loudly most of the day while he wrote his poetry.
Russell
always wore a very simple grey 'safari suit' . He had made it himself. He
wore his dark, wavy hair shoulder length.
When he was
assigned to the children's structures, the children always did interesting and
different activities- e.g..,climbing trees.
Grace and
peace,
Isobel Bishop

Jon, not formatted the nice way it is on a one sheet but this might work for
your purposes:
BEING
Tune: Theme from "Black Orpheus"
My life
is as
Vast as the sea
No
boundaries no
Floor
beneath me.
Yet as
I look within
No man has greater sin.
I am
the least of all
I daily
fall.
But it's then when
I Doubt
that I can
I
choose to be nothing
For
man.
To die
is my lot
I live as if not
With
Paul
I merge with all.
I see
then as
Never
before
The
secrets of
heaven
my store.
With
wisdom twice my age
My life
an open page
Though
with each insight
Gain a
deeper pain.
Yet I
live with the Lord on my side
And
wild intuition My guide.
I'm
sent as a sign
The bread and the wine
My form
And virgin
born.
Then I
act seeing
Action
is vain
And
accomplishments
Never
as gain.
To only
do is less
Than
forming humanness
So
mission I must be
To set
men free.
Called
to burn as an Undying flame
Each
word and each Gesture the Name.
I must through life-loss
An
exalted cross
My place
Reveal
his face
Then
the Lord through
My life
prays a prayer
And my
being is
Filled
being there.
I can
invent anew what
All the
saints once knew
By
being who I am
I
create man.
And
it's no longer
I who is seen
But the Lord standing
There
in between.
Finished
as I die
Held
there between
Sky and
sod
To save
our God.
Yes,
it's there on the limbs of the worm eaten tree where the All and the Nothing
can BE.
j'aime la vie
Yesterday, appreciate; tomorrow,
anticipate; today, participate. In all, Celebrate!

A last minute request...
If anyone has the lyrics for the song, "Being" I would like to use them for my
father's memorial service tomorrow.

Jon
