We have to know what we know.We have to listen until we hear.Probe, question, examine until we understand.Comprehend. Make connections. Realize. See.We drop into the emptiness, stillness, silence,and wait for the truth to become clear.We know what we seek.We wait for the epiphanies. The silence is filled with answers.Do not run from knowing.Enlightenment is awakeningtoContinue reading “June 01, 2025”

We have to find our focus,our grounding foundation,the essence of who we are and what we are about.What makes us US, defines who are are,always have been and always will be.We have to recover the face that was ours before we were born.Don’t we?Don’t you know what I’m talking about?Doesn’t it ring true with you?WeContinue reading “June, 2025”

Circumstances will take our life away from usif we let them.Did someone just say, “Donald Trump”?Our circumstances, our attitude, our “vim, vigor, and vitality,”impact the quality of our life to the exact degree that we allow it.We take our life back with regular immersion in emptiness, stillness and silence–emptying ourselves of thoughts, emotions,memories, moods, etc.Continue reading “May 31, 2025”

Knowing, doing, being, sincerity, spontaneity, authenticity.Imply compassion, curiosity, sensitivity, balance, centered, grounded, oneness, peace, tranquility, serenity, integrity.Describes a baby with all its needs met.At what point did they no longer apply to us?What would we need to change to bring them back into play?What’s keeping that from happening?I don’t see wanting on the list.Needing isn’tContinue reading “May 30, 2025”

Jesus was all about salvation–but not as it is presented to us.Salvation rightly understood is about dying to the right thingsthat we might live in the service of the right things. And who is to say what is right?Meister Eckhart, who was probably–in my opinion–murdered before being sentenced for heresy in 1328, said,”The final leave-takingContinue reading “May 29, 2025”

Being here, now is being nowhere else but here, now.How long can we be here, now?What is with drifting away?We drop into here, now,and we drift away.And we can drift constantly.What holds our attention?What do we dwell on?Desire? Dread? Fear? Anger? Anxiety?Where do we go when we are not here, now?How often do we frequentContinue reading “May 28, 2025”

I want you to join me in a pactto no longer allow our personal gain,benefit, profit, advantage to govern our choicesand direct our life.We are no longer in it for what we can get out of it.Instead, we are going to live in the service ofwhat is called for in each situation as it arises,devotingContinue reading “May 27, 2025”

Courage for the work,heart for the task at hand,rising to meet what’s comingin seeing what’s whatand doing what is called forin each situation as it arisesin the service of our original natureour inherent imagination,and our intrinsic intuition,one day at a time,beginning here, now.

I have faith in my intuitive abilityto know what’s what and what is called forand what needs to be done about it,in each situation as it arises–not by thinking about it,but by not thinking at all,and simply trusting myself to drop into the emptiness-stillness-silence, waiting for knowing to arise on its own accord from theContinue reading “May 25, 2025”

I have recently updated my eBooks on Amazon Kindle, “The Tao of Jesus V” and “A Handbook for The Spiritual Journey II.” I enjoyed writing, and enjoy reading, both books, and am sure I will not do better in what remains of my time left for living.This Trump mess sullies what remains of my time,Continue reading “May 24, 2025”

Taking stock is a meditative practiceof dropping into the emptiness-stillness-silenceon a daily basis throughout the day,to tune in, turn on and realize what’ what,here, now, and what that calls for,and what needs to happen in response,when, where and how,align ourselves with the direction and flowof our life all day long.

I miss the Bog Garden. I lived about a mile awayfor about 13 years,and moved away in 2013.And don’t need to go back.I’m funny that way.That was then, this is now.I don’t go back.One of my favorite idiosyncrasies.Which I do not understand,but I recognize and honoras a “Me Thing.”It is Who I Am.There are thingsContinue reading “May 22, 2025”
