The message of all the Messiahs through time is simple, straight forward, in capable of being missed, and, therefore being ignored: “This is the way to do it! Be me!” And we worship them all for being the spit’n image of who we all need to be, and letting them bear the wounds and theContinue reading “May 24, 2026 – B”

I don’t know why I went from Greensboro, North Carolina to Deer Isle, Maine to take a photograph of the full moon. Or to take any photograph. In the grip of inspiration you don’t ask questions. That is also the difference between our sixties and our eighties. I am quite content to sit by theContinue reading “May 24, 2026”

We are our own light. Our own authority. Our own guide and Guru. We are all we need to find what we need to do what needs to be done with the time that is ours on the earth, and the task that is ours to do. All it takes is making regular visits toContinue reading “05/22/2026”

I am glad to have no idea of how things ought to be beyond being quiet and waiting to see what is called for in each situation as it arises and entering the field of action to do the right thing, in the right way, at the right time and dropping back into the silenceContinue reading “May 21, 2026 – B”

I give credit to the experience of emptiness, stillness, silence (One thing, not three) over time to be at the place of experiencing frustration without being frustrated, for example. This is the way of experiencing a situation without being consumed by the situation. We can observe a situation and be immune to the situation. ThisContinue reading “May 21, 2026”

What does work is emptiness, stillness and silence (One thing, not three), being here, now, present with, and conscious of, what is present with us, here, now,Continue reading “May 20, 2026”

Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Gatlinburg, Tennessee Knowing what is called for in each situation as it arises, being right about it, and doing it is all that can be asked of anyone, ever, throughout time. Even if they don’t believe in God. Even if they don’t believe they ARE God.

Comparing theology with Psyche, Intuition, and Tao: Theology says: “Truth comes from outside you.” Psyche says: “Truth arises within you.” Intuition says: “Truth is recognized by resonance.” Tao says: “Truth is lived, not believed.” What do WE say?

Here is one way of thinking about life without theology and with Psyche, Intuition, Tao: Theology says: “Truth comes from outside you.” Psyche says: “Truth arises within you.” Intuition says: “Truth is recognized by resonance.” Tao says: “Truth is lived, not believed.” And the question becomes: What do WE say?

My idea of love, as in “I love you,” is no expectations, no requirements. I have come to this point by being told, “I love you,” by family members from birth to the present day, and those older than I am had plenty of expectations and requirements, my father especially. Out of that ages longContinue reading “May 07, 2026”

All we have to work with comes down to ourselves and our good looks, each other, our collective ingenuity and Psyche, Tao and Intuition. That’s all there is when we plop out of the womb, and that remains all there is throughout the time left for living. You might think that Psyche, Tao and IntuitionContinue reading “May 06, 2026”
