This is an internet site for encouragement, orientation, foundation and direction through all that comes our way each day throughout our life time. It comes down to, revolves around, and consists of being here, nowContinue reading “The Daily Practice Practice”

The secret of photography is to be there when the picture is no matter what the price. That is the only thing that sets photographers off from people with cameras. Everybody has a good enough camera these days. But everybody is not there when the picture is. And these days, I am not there whenContinue reading “May 06, 2026 – B”

Living as those who are mindfully aware of Tao, Psyche and Intuition, puts us in the company of indigenous peoples throughout time. They were led, guided, directed throughout each day by the Holy Trinity of the inner world providing them with a felt sense (a bodily awareness) of what’s what, and what’s called for here,Continue reading “May 03, 2026”

If you look closely at the water it will move for you. It is an optical illusion, of course and. How much of our life is? How much of what we think is so is not so? If we say something about anything, anyone, and what we have said says more about us than itContinue reading “March 31, 2026”

I am a strong believer in trance states. Self-induced trance-states. Looking out the window. Drifting off into wool-gathering or taking a walk-a-bout to nowhere in particular. Not going anywhere and not being here, now at the same time. Aware only of what occurs to me/you, to what appears out of the mists, to catch ourContinue reading “February 27, 2026”

We know things we don’t know how we know. If we sit quietly without thinking but being aware of the things that come to mind “out of nowhere” and following the things that have an attraction about them, we will come into realization “like a bolt from the blue.” And we will not have thoughtContinue reading “February 26-B, 2026”

There is what we control and what we do not control. Adjusting ourselves to the things we do not control is the most important trick in the entire Book of Tricks. How well we do that tells the tale. There is how things are and how we think about how things are, the way weContinue reading “January 12, 2026”

What would make the biggest difference for good in your life that is in your ability to effect? The one thing I can think of that would apply to all of us is emptiness, stillness, silence (One thing, not three) regularly applied frequently throughout the time left for living. Just sitting still, being quiet, watchingContinue reading “January 03, 2026”

This bird knows what it is doing, where it is, what is going on. This bird knows what its business is and is about it to the fullest extent of its being. Would that we could say the same things about ourselves. My associate pastor and I would ground ourselves by asking, whenever it wasContinue reading “December 16, 2025”

Don’t have a plan! By all means, do not have to have a plan! All thought out from every angle, the brain child of reason and logic, carefully crafted and put into place.
