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 keep some idiot from doing something inhumane.  What a waste of money, manpower, and energy that could have been used for creating something good, rather than simply hoping it will prevent something bad.

If energy equals mass times

the speed of light squared…

And the speed of light squared

equals Consciousness…

Then Consciousness equals

me on my head.

..at least according to Einstein.

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 is a clergyman who has come to bless you and pray for you. May that feeling remain with them.  Amen.

What a strange experience…

when something that was you no longer is.

The loss of a tooth… in childhood

The loss of a limb… in war

The loss of a body… in due time.

So if that’s not me…

Who am I?

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 time to improve, edit, and replace any that need it.  Meanwhile, today, I’m going to put the intro together so I can give it all to the person who said he would look it over for me.  I am much too close and need an outside view.

I am dying.

The body I’ve lived in

is going away.

After all these years

It is falling off me…

like the skin off a snake.

And as the snake discovers…

as part of him floats away…

he is still alive.

I still live…

though I no longer

have a physical shell…

Even without a body

‘I’ still ‘am’.

How cool is that?

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 separated from the overall, all encompassing consciousness. Suddenly, “Hey, here I am… in here… inside this little piece of meat.”  And as strange as this sounds, it’s interesting how this fits in with both the ancient religion of Kashmir Shivaism and the modern science of quantum physics.

everything around you

is consciousness hardened in

space/time

Matter formed

when “I” slows down

and splits in half…

half of that is the speed of light

the other half solidifies

into matter.

Take the speed of light…

square it…

and here “I AM”

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 in the week while mom is still on the east coast.  I still have to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life.  Unlike when I asked myself the same question as a youth, I no longer think that the answer is overly important. What do I want to do?  Be happy.  Of course, that’s the same answer I used back when I was eight years old.  So I guess I am consistent.

It is good to have a

working relationship

with your environment.

Take surfing…

Do it right

and the environment

supports you

Do it wrong

and the environment

destroys you

Humankind’s

environment

is Earth.

“Hello?”

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.  If I last long enough I may even get to the point where someone takes care of my food and poop like I do for her.  So much to look forward to.

What is the purpose of creation…

if not for fun?

Why else would “I” do something…

“I” didn’t have to do?

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 baseball player probably looks at me and thinks… here’s a guy who stands in front of his computer and never has to leave his house if he doesn’t want to, while I have to spend half my life on airplanes, half my life in the gym working out, and that’s besides all the things I have to do to stay on top of my game.  We may both agree on the facts, but how it all plays out depends on where you’re standing.

Life is a game if you do it right.

If nothing really matters that much.

Win or lose… it’s fun to play.

Nice way to spend a day.

Every day is a new adventure.  Where do ‘I’ want to be this afternoon?  I don’t mean out there in the physical world.  I mean in here in the quantum world where ‘I’ can exist anywhere on a spectrum between the physical world out there and the clear light of “I AM” which is who ‘I’ am in the first place.

Okay.  So let’s logic it out.  “I AM” is real… in fact, it’s the only permanent element involved here. Everything else… from my body, to my thoughts, to my emotions, is temporary.  When my body dies… that’s it.  There will never be another one exactly like me again… ever.  Soooooo… What am I here for?

If I sat in meditation all the time… being “I” instead of I… the better I got at it, the less I’d be paying attention to this piece of meat that is only passing through.  Yes.  It is important that I learned that I am really “I AM” looking out through this particular set of filters and adjectives, impulses and urges, thoughts and emotions, talents and handicaps, that I call me.   But now that I know this, I should probably focus on bringing that energy back into this being who “I” created in the first place.

Like coming back into the space suit after being in the flying saucer knowing what you now know. Now I am ‘I’.  How will ‘I’ use this knowledge?  You don’t know that story?  I’m sure I posted it.

#65

Who am I?

Who do I want to be?

It’s humbling to imagine that I

am the ultimate result of…

how many eons of

evolution?

“I AM” to I

So get on with it!

Hospice Day again.  It’s amazing how energized I get going out and visiting people who are dying… speaking to them and their families… trying to remove pain, concern, and fear.  Why?  Probably, because I’m spending my day looking for the bright light at the end of the tunnel with people who are about to enter the tunnel.  Thinking positive will energize you wherever you’re standing at the time.

#64

What does “I AM” feel like?

Don’t ask people who’ve been there.

Be there yourself.

Inside.
