Dharma is right action--
doing the right thing,
at the right time,
in the right place,
in the right way.

Living in accord with the Tao
is the same thing.

And what that is cannot be codified,
said, told, spelled out, defined, explained, etc.

We can only know it intuitively,
not intellectually, 
not rationally, 
not logically.

Doctor Spock would be completely
out of luck.

Intuition is the path to the Pure Land,
to the Land of Promise,
to the Farther Shore,
to Heaven in all its glory,
to Nirvana...

Intuition is the key to happiness ever after.
You would think someone would have told us that
by now.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
