I still find it amazing that terrorist groups can proudly announce to the world that they are the ones responsible for suicide bombings and mass killings inflicted on innocent bystanders.  One can only hope that their God… whatever name they use… sits them down in the other side of the big divide and clearly indicates that […]

I was reading the Sunday paper… a column I often read by Willie Brown, a former mayor of San Francisco, state assemblyman, and lifetime politician.  As usual, he was describing some events he had been invited to participate in, and the parties, and the important people he had been hanging with.  I don’t begrudge him […]

Terry… Along with so many others I send you healing energy.  Visualize green light. #73 You have to feel sorry for people whose lives are full of suffering…   who face sorrow… prejudice… hatred…   who live with fear… terror… pain…   Before you try to help… make sure that you are not a cause. […]

The 2016 Olympics open tonight in Rio de Janeiro. It was reported that over 100,000 law enforcement officers, police and military, will be on active duty as protection until the games are over.  What a shame, what a sad comment on the human mentality, that so many people are needed in order to try to […]

Off to do hospice.  I’ll be back later in the day after a whole bunch of meaningful experiences. … So now I’m back and it’s true.  It really is amazing how, for someone lying in a bed all day every day, having someone come over to see you is special.  Especially, apparently, if that person […]

As of last night all  81 verses were completed for the planned book, Tao of the New Consciousness. Since I was editing them as I was putting them together, there is little doubt that they could be improved. Since I look to bring this out around the end of the year, there is still plenty of […]

I have visions of consciousness in the blackness of emptiness dropping off ideas it has thought of like a snake shedding its skin. And how these in turn tend to congregate around other waves and become more and more developed… until they close up like a bubble around a section of consciousness that is now […]

Another gorgeous day filled with nothing I have to do… only time and the opportunity to do things I want to do.  I have already fed and dosed the cat, brought the car down to be serviced, swum 1/2 a mile at the gym, and invited my son to come over for dinner later on […]

Building on yesterday’s post.  It really is amazing when there is nothing you have to do… nowhere you have to be.  I see my cat curled up on the back of the sofa, so calm, so contented, so doing nothing and I realize that’s not a bad plan as one gets older.  I can play cat. […]

  It struck me… as I’m sitting here watching the Giants on TV…  that there are some people whose entire focus in life is about throwing or hitting a baseball.  How wonderful that must be.  Life is all about playing a game.  At least from here, where I sit thinking my ideas actually mean something. The […]
