In order to comprehend the instant removal of God of Theology from the conversation regarding Divinities available to help us find our way, it is necessary for us to understand the psychological mechanism of Projection. We can begin by doing an internet search for the term and reading everything that search reveals. We will discoverContinue reading “September 11, 2026”

GOD consists of all of the statements made about GOD through time. All of the statements about GOD through time consist of projections made by people throughout time. GOD is the product of the people of God, derived from their own imagination. End of story. End of GOD–the GOD of Theology, that is. That WhichContinue reading “September 10, 2026 B”

The most successful life is being who we are, doing what is ours to do. It has nothing to do with what we achieve or how much money we have. It is much more about sitting looking out the window. There is a peace that comes with that. The Buddha called it, “Peaceful abiding, here,Continue reading “September 09, 2026”

I would like to know what our chances are of living a life we would be proud to have lived. And, I would like to know what would improve our chances. What do we need that we don’t have? What would make the difference? And, at what point would it be too late for anythingContinue reading “September 08, 2026”

We have to abandon religion in order to be religious. Religious is seeing, hearing, knowing, doing, being. Religion is the misguided attempt to say what Tao is, and “The Tao that can be said is not the eternal Tao.”

I gave these questions to Gemini, Google’s AI, and this what the response: If thinking, wanting, willing, and fear are the surface waves,Continue reading “September 05, 2026”

We are looking for balance and harmony, direction and flow, alignment and confirmation. And all of that is found in emptiness, stillness, silence. Marianne Moore said, “The sure cure for loneliness is solitude.” Solitude is where we go for balance and harmony, direction and flow, alignment and confirmation. Twenty minutes of solitude twice a dayContinue reading “September 04, 2026”

God consists of words about God. We are the source of our own theology, the foundation of our own impetus and direction. We make it all up all along the way. We are the sole authority of all of our thinking, believing, saying, doing. There is no one “here,” but us! “We (ourselves and eachContinue reading “September 03, 2026”

All it takes is doing what is called for, when, where and how it is called for, in each situation as it arises all our life long. What is it about that that makes it difficult to do? What we want to do? What we feel like doing? We get in our own way. WeContinue reading “September 02, 2026”

I wonder what the rules were determining life at Mesa Verde. How were they created? How were they remembered? How were they enforced? How were new rules added? Who said so? Who decided? What went into the decision? And so on. Not only here but in every location indigenous peoples called home throughout time. IContinue reading “September 01, 2026”
