The new religion is reading the circumstances as they unfold about us, knowing what is called for and responding out of our original nature and the virtues/characteristics packed into our DNA, perfecting our response patterns over time and learning to trust ourselves to know what to do when, where and how out of our body of experience and our physical body of inner capabilities. Paying attention to the here/now and to ourselves paying attention to the here/now is the path to seeing/hearing/knowing/doing/being. No theology, no doctrine, no dogma, no catechisms, no Bible... Just seeing/hearing/knowing/doing/being. We get better at it with time, and begin to enjoy it, and look forward to it. The adventure of being alive! Not striving to force our way onto the situation-- just seeing/hearing/knowing/doing/being. And letting the outcome become merely the next situation in which we see/hear/know/do/be. It is a game, a dance, a joy, a delight, matching up with the circumstances and playing our hearts out, time after time. This is the new religion of being alive!

Password problems and Substack sign in problems, so I will just tell you that I “like” all your posts. This is such a food one and echoes a conversation I was having with a friend yesterday. You’re a treasure in my life.
