Distraction, disturbance, diversiondisrupts our focus and our flow,destroys our silence,devastates our world.And so the importance of returning frequentlyeach day to the refuge of “Peaceful abiding here, now.”Practice dropping into “Peaceful abiding here, now,”all the time everywhere.Perfect switching from “this place” to “that place”instantaneously.Be out of reach “like that.”Just disappear.Into “Peaceful abiding, here, now.”Ground yourself inContinue reading “February 24, 2025”

Dropping into emptiness-stillness-silence here, now,and being clear about what’s what and what is called forand doing what needs to be donewhere and how it needs to be doneis living aligned with the Tao,which is the flow of life and being,the Force of Star Wars,the intuition at the heart of who we are.When Jesus said, “PrayContinue reading “February 22, 2025”

The knowledge we carry withinthat is so much more than we have been told or taughtis astounding beyond words.How do we know what we know?What guides our boat on its path through the sea? Why don’t we listen closelyand trust ourselves more?Why aren’t we taught about vision quests?And Walk-a-bouts?Why aren’t we trainedto drop into theContinue reading “February 21, 2025”

Ruling out an Elder Wandleaves us at an impasse when it comes to a quick returnto life as it used to be.The Dark Ages had nothing to commend them then,and have nothing to commend them now.My advice is to find a group of the right kind of peopleand make a pact to encourageand sustain oneContinue reading “February 20, 2025”

The idea is to live in the serviceof what is called for in each situation as it ariseswith the gifts we are born within our original nature,our innate virtues–what we do best and love doing most,our inherent imaginationand our intrinsic intuition.We have to train ourselvesto know who we are and to trust ourselves to knowContinue reading “February 19, 2025”

We are quite on our ownand get by best by choosingthe right kind of others to be our Community of Innocence–Innocent in the sense of having nothing at stakein relationship with one another beyond servingas a sounding board for each other,enabling all in the groupto ask the questions that beg to be askedand say theContinue reading “February 18, 2025 – B”

What keeps you going? Seriously. What pulls you into your life?What are the sources of attraction?Of interest?Of energy, vibrance, enthusiasm, joy and delight?I get excited about making cobbler,a good cup of coffeeand oatmeal-raisin cookies.Reading and writing.Sitting quietly.Most anything with quiet attached.Working with photographs.Reflecting on various aspects of lifeand coming to new realizations.Like why we seeContinue reading “February 18, 2025”

Change anything and we change everything–and we are changing things big time.With no regard for the implications of any of it.At a rate where nothing has the leisureof a comfortable adjustment to anything.The impact upon the intuitive structureof the entire cosmos is incalculable, but.It will take a lifetime of emptiness, stillness and silenceover many generationsContinue reading “February 17, 2025”

Carl Jung said, “We are who we have always been,and who we will be.”I practice “active imagination”with conversations with Jesus and Buddha, and othersfrom time to time,and recommend it to you and your ownmeditative moments.One of the things that “come through”(From where, who knows) regularly, with Jesusin particular,is what a child of innocence and purityContinue reading “February 16, 2025 – B”

Being what the moment needsis being present with what is present with usso that we see, hear, understand,know, do, bewho we are needed to beby what is called for here, now.That is the ideal for each of us,all of whom are distracted by “The Dust Of The World,”and doing well just to have our clothesContinue reading “February 16, 2025”

There are connections between what happens to us and what we do about it,between what is important to usand what we do about it.The response determines–or strongly influences–everything that follows.The range of our response-abilitydetermines–or strongly influences–the outcomes of our life.We wield tremendous powerover the course and direction of our lifeby the ways we respond totheContinue reading “February 15, 2025”
