It’s all a matter of chance. What we do with it is what matters. What we do with the moment, with the day, with our life… With what pilots our boat on it path through the sea. Having our way and getting what we want is one way to do it. Seems to be theContinue reading “October 27, 2023 – A”

Where do you spend your money? Where do you spend your time? There you are. I wander among the exhibitions of the natural world, taking refuge in what it has to offer as a buffer against the goings-on in the world of normal, apparent, reality. There is much there I don’t like and can doContinue reading “October 26, 2023 – A”

Perspective is the key. It’s all a matter of enlarging our perspective, flipping our perspective, changing our perspective about what’s important, and getting up and doing what needs to be done. People who see the same things in the same way over time may as well be dead for all the good they are doingContinue reading “October 25, 2023 – A”

Comes a war, comes a hurricane, comes an earthquake, comes a baby… goes the Tao amid the dust and travail. The Tao comes and goes. That is the Way of Tao, of the Way. We find our way back to the Way through the right kind of emptiness, stillness, silence, and waiting for the mudContinue reading “October 24, 2023 – B”

The Tao is doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right place, in the right way. Anything that assists that is “in accord/sync with the Tao.” Anything that interferes with that is “out of accord/sync with the Tao.” Balance and harmony flow with the requirements of Tao, chaos and disruption clash withContinue reading “October 24, 2023 – A”

All true religion is grounded on knowing what to do when, where and how. Those who know, know the same things over time and space. Here is a link to the way that happens: https://ts2.shop/en/posts/your-consciousness-can-connect-with-the-whole-universe-scientists-say Resonance, vibes, in-sync-ness, etc. really is a matter of “being on the same wave-length”! And the path to doing thatContinue reading “October 23, 2023 – A”

It is the Adam and Eve Leaving Eden image and the Garden of Gethsemane image being played out in our lives everyday that keeps things as they are in the world. The writer of the book of James (4:2) nailed it: “You crave but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannotContinue reading “October 22, 2023 – A”

Our primary concern needs to be living as good stewards of our health. Health is not to be taken for granted, as though we can live anyway we want and eat anything we like anytime we feel like it and be healthy. What changes do we need to make in the way we live toContinue reading “October 21, 2023 – A”

If we were to build a church without theology (And why don’t we?), we could do it basted upon personal experience. The ground/foundation would be the right kind of emptiness, stillness, silence. The touchstone components for maintaining/deepening our attachment to the core/center/source of life and being would be integrity/sincerity, spontaneity, balance/harmony, spirit, energy, vitality… AsContinue reading “October 20, 2023 – A”

The day is here to be seen, and heard, and understood, comprehended, attended and served. We are here to do right by each day. To size things up, know what is called for and do what needs to be done. Some days demand that we go back to bed. Some days require us to goContinue reading “October 19, 2023 – A”

The Hum at the foundational center of the universe is the gravitational remnant of the destruction of hundred, or thousands, of galaxies. AUM is the triumph of Black Holes, and the wail of unimaginable devastation. Israel in Gaza. Hamas in Gaza. This is where we live. How we live with what we live with isContinue reading “October 18, 2023 – A”

Find a place in image form or actual life, that is for you a fine place for engaging the truth of what’s what and how things are, and finding what you have to bring forth in adjusting to it and doing what needs to be done in response to it. Just sit there, or walkContinue reading “October 17, 2023 – A”
