MAHAVIRA –“As the fallow leaf of the tree falls to the ground when its days are gone, even so the lives of men(come to a close).Gautama, be careful all the while. As a dew drop dangling from the tip of a blade of kusa grass lasts but a short time, even so the lives of men.Gautama, be careful all the while. A rare chance in the long course of time is human birth for a living thing. Hard are the consequences of action.Gautama, be careful all the while.Though one believes in the law, one will rarely practise it, for people are engrossed in pleasures.Gautama, be careful all the while.” MAHMUD SHABISTARI –“Go sweep out the chamber of your heart.

If he says 'This is my faith', so far he maintains truth. But by that he cannot proceed to the absolute conclusion: 'This also is Truth, and everything else is false'.” MAKI MEHTA –“How good it is that God above has never gone on strike, Because He was not treated fair in things He didn't like, If only once He'd given up and said, "That's it, I'm through! I've had enough of those on earth, so this is what I'll do: I'll give my orders to the sun — cut off the heat supply! And to the moon— give no more light, and run the oceans dry. Then just to make things really tough and put the pressure on, Turn off the vital oxygen till every breath is gone!" You know, He would be justified, if fairness was the game, For no one has been more abused or met with more disdain, Than God, and yet He carries on, supplying you and me, With all the favour of His grace, and everything for free. Men say they want a better deal, and so on strike they go, But what a deal we've given God to whom all things we owe. We don't care whom we hurt to gain the things we like, But what a mess we'd all be in, if God should go on strike.” MALACHI –“Have we not all one father?

There are no records./The river was the green and white vein of our lives/linking new terrain,/ in a lust for land brother and brother/ claiming the sunrise and the sunset,/ in a dispute settled by the rocks/ engraved in a vanished land./1 will remember then the fading voices/ of deaf women framing the root of light/in the , first stories to the children of the tribe. Remember the river's voice:/ Where else could we be born/ where else could we belong/if not of memory/ divining life and form out of silence, Water and mist,/ the twin gods, water and mist,/ and the cloud woman always calling/ from the sanctuary of the gorge/ Remember, because nothing is ended/ but it is changed. And memory is a hanging shape/ showing with these fading possessions/inlands beyond the great ocean/ that all is changed but not ended. And in the villages the silent hill men still await/the long promised letters, id the meaning of words.” MAN’YOSHU –“My Lord, boundless as The sun and moon Lighting heaven and earth; How then can I have concerns About what is to be?” MANAVADHARMA –“Manvantaras are countless, as are also the creations and destructions; the Supreme Being does this again and again as if in sport.” MANDELSTAM –“...Yet nature once a year Is bathed in lengthiness as intiomnetic metres...” MANDELSTAM –“...Yet nature once a year Is bathed in lengthiness as in Homeric metres Like a caesura that day yawns...” MANGAT –“When your mind is tired of body comforts, it will (then be able to) taste the real joy of Atman. When it merges with the Atman, you experience the highest state of bliss. This highest state is the true unequalled Shabad (the word); with its contemplation you will overcome tirade of delusion. With mind attached to the word, focus on your breath. With closed eyes directed upwards, feel the flow (of the shabad. It concentrating on the flow (of the shabad) makes Sat Khand (spiritual region at the top of the head) your abode. Go on remembering God's name, thus overcoming this arduous world.

But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy, at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

Eyepiece Suggestions?
I know everyones eyes are different. But generally speaking, do certain eyepiece styles work better with different Focal length / ratios?
I have a F4.5 16" meade Starfinder, and I would like some suggestion on what type of eyepieces I should be looking at. I already have a few low-end plossls, and a 2" 17mm elux. I would also like to get a decent high power (5-7 mm) and a good low power (32 - 40 mm) for both planetary and deep sky viewing.
what design would you suggest for my scope?
Sorry, forgot the budget, I would like to keep it under $150
..each...............
You do need to set up a budget. For wide field, you can't beat something like a Televue Ethos, but it'll eat a hole in your bank account faster than molten steel on ice. Lurk on a place like Astromart and see what comes up for sale. Sometimes you can get a decent bargain for an older Televue, Pentax, or other high eyepiece.
With a dob, you do need to be mindful of the eyepiece weight as well. I'm not sure about your Meade, but generally it's a 1:4 ratio for counter balancing (for every pound you add to the front of the scope, you'll need to add four pounds in the back to rebalanced it).
If it is possible, see if you can find someone with a similar scope as yours (if your in a club) and try out their eyepieces at a star party.
One other thing to consider is getting something like an OIII or nebula filter as well. They will help you find those dim, fuzzy things like the Veil nebula and enhance detail in the easy stuff like the Orion nebula.
