Imagine a Day

Product Information

Image There's No Lennon from AustraliaAn overrated load of simpering drivel with a wimps--t melody by a narcissistic overrated hypocrite. a militant fundamentalist. People have free will and a choice. There is no way to FORCE people to believe the same thing you do. Since the beginning of time, fighting wars over religion has never achieved anything. As far as Capitalism goes, the Bible teaches helping others and giving to the poor. Jesus was not a Capitalist--he drove the money changers out of the temple, and taught humility and moderation in everything. Corporate greed is not godly, or Christ-like.

Part II: The three books are worth studying together because they show how the artist has grown and developed his talent and technique over time. For example, Sharon Cummings (my classmate) and I read Imagine A Night first and recorded our initial impressions, which were mostly about the text. The second book we read was Imagine A Place and we found ourselves making many more comments about the illustration and how it illuminates the text. We could see improvements between the two books, such as the level of detail in the pictures that were either direct translations of the text or more figurative interpretations. An “avalanche of blossoms” was painted literally as an avalanche fading into blossom trees. At this point we formed the hypothesis that the Day book was created after the Night book, and this was confirmed by the five year gap in between the two books. Since it was such a long stretch between the two, we wondered if there was a book that came between them – this is how we discovered the Place book. The powerful symbolism of the book works in unison with paintings and text to create deeper meaning. It symbolizes objects as more than just its arbitrary symbol, as the quotation ‘when a tree is a ladder between earth and air’ presents the tree as not just a piece of wood, with bark and branches growing from the ground, but as something to be recognized in a different fashion-as a ladder. By drawing on the tree’s connections with the earth and air, it also portrays the beauty of nature, and how to appreciate it. Letâ??s all spend a little more time to imagine what our end should be, and beware of the things that blinds us from the unity that binds us. Alex from Rialto, CaI was writing a post on my blog about the Israel-Palestine conflict, and this song was playing. There was just something about the contrast between the reality I was reading and writing about and the song I was hearing and singing that nearly made me break down in tears.Jay from Atlanta, GaThis song is communist propaganda. Lennon didn't even believe the words himselg. "Imagine no possessions" as he rides around in that huge white mercedes. Wake up! Kim from Wadsworth , OhThis is just a beautiful song. There isn't anything else I can really say about it except that I love it, and that Lennon is dearly missed. I think that the first idea of the writing of the song 'Imagine' came from the song 'What's Going On' written and sung by Marvin Gaye in 1971. Because the song 'What's Going On' was very famous for writing against the Vietnam war and became a big hit at that time. So everyone must had known about the song. So had John, too. Also 'What's Going On' was released in Jan. 1971. John started recording the album 'Imagine' in June 1971, according to Wiki. If it was true, I think John must had been influenced by the song 'What's Going On'. The rest is history. To imagine there is no heaven is more than just a void of faith, it is a void of hope. Our good wishes will never change the hearts of men. Why would it. Only God can make this transformation and if you do not believe in him then you are without hope as well as without faith. K from Nowhere, Oni hate how people are being so negative. the point of the song is imagining how different the world would be if there was none of this. and, yeah, the millionaire talked about having no possessions. LIKE YOU DONT!!!

Money is the blood of the economy, and the economy is the life of everyone. Thus, to survive, one must earn enough of it, in ways and jobs often far from the path to be. Conditions seems to prescribe nations to follow that path, the path of economic growth. Our jobs often divides families and communities, and destroy nature, but more than anything, they destroy our soul. So I would say, religions are expressions, the diversity. While towards God and in God, essence and unity emerge. Meaning, we should be humble in our imperfection, in our imperfect understanding of God, in our imperfect strife towards God, and learn from our mistakes and from each other. This should apply for any open minded atheist too, since they too are destined as imperfects, with their own ideal and their imperfect understanding of it, or more precisely, of religion and the Ultimate Reality. Bailey from Salem, OrPeople really need to stop over analyzing this song. Lennon meant he imagined that we as one, could make this world a better place. in my opinion, the line "and no religion too" means that people in this world arent fighting over god, they are fighting over religion, call me stupid but isnt God suposed to be the important thing, he doesnt mean that we should get rid of all religion, but its sad when we fight over it. and the guy who said he didnt think lennon is a christian is ridiculous. if you claim to be a christian then you should know not to judge someone elses heart, you didnt even know him...Jonn from Liverpool, Englanda truly awe-inspiring and beautiful song. The lyrics are so empassioned and moving. Some day people might see what he tried to say and realise that, that is how the world should be; an oasis of peace and love. Crimp’s sources this time were a mix of European and Buddhist folk tales, and an ancient near-eastern romance, but the woman’s search is couched in thoroughly modern imagery. It turns out to be increasingly futile: the “happiness” of all those she encounters – a pair of lovers, an artisan craftsman, a composer, a wealthy collector – proves to be illusory or compromised, until finally, in a beautiful, tranquil garden, she meets Zabelle, a woman very like herself, and realises what her way forward might be. Adam from New Orleans, LaYeah, John Lennon wasn't an Atheist. He was a Christian. So before you go spouting "jon lenen wuz a athyist hurp durp." do some research. Steven from Bundaberg, AustraliaImagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try, no hell below us, above us only sky.... Why would you want to imagine no heaven?...heaven is the only place where this utopia of John's exists. This is nothing more than an 'Imagine there's no God and we can all do what we like' - song. People are far too selfish to exist together in harmony without laws with sanctions. Let me quote a Keith Green song that tells it how it is. "..so many laughing at Jesus, while the 'funniest' thing that He's done, is love this poor stubborn, rebellious world, while their hate for Him just goes on...." God wants to SAVE you from your sins and take you to heaven, not join a religion. John was just imagining heaven. Ironic.
