Heading down to the Institute within a few minutes to join a going away party for my friend and mentor who is being “retired” to Emeritus status.  The school has been moving farther and farther away from the philosophy under which it was founded… which, as it turns out, is what I teach and what the New Consciousness is all about.  All the movers and shakers will be there, saying nice things about my former teacher while actively working to undermine everything he stands for.  I don’t know what will happen, but I do know I will keep my cool.

Let go.  Let it happen.  I’m seeing things that I’ve wanted to do, that I’ve wanted to have happen, begin to take place. No one knows that I’ve visioned it long ago.  Who cares?  They don’t.  I shouldn’t.  there are tales of shamans and holy men sitting in the Himalayas visioning a perfect world. No one knows who they are.  No one knows what they are doing.  Are they helping improve the world?  Tune in a hundred years from now and see if humanity is still around.

I’m torn between what to post.

On one hand, I will be talking with my tech maven tonight who plans on putting some of my writing on line on a new website devoted to “Higher Consciousness” writings.  This was his idea and came less than a week after I decided to stop pushing my stuff and let the universe set the pace. This is good.

On the other hand, I heard on the radio this morning that another social activist was hacked to death by religious fanatics in India. This is bad.  Very bad.

So what do I write about? Which is more important? Which is going affect more people? At the moment, the answer is obvious. In the long run? Who knows.  I do know, however, that other than sending my love and healing energies out into the world, one of these things I cannot affect at all. The other cannot even occur without some effort on my part.  Therefore, the answer is clear.  I will write about both and then get on with the one I can do something about.

Finally, a day with nothing on the agenda.  Just let it flow.  Make breakfast… Read the paper… Watch a ball game… Play on-line Scrabble.  What a difference from yesterday. Even though yesterday was all good, just floating in space with no where to go and nothing to do can be just what you need.  Enjoy.

It was a busy day.  Started with yoga. We did twists. Then pick up the wife back at the apartment and off to the park for our six year old god-daughter’s birthday party… lots of beautiful kids and great food.  Then shopping at four different stores in preparation for hosting dear friends and their nine year old daughter for drinks and dinner back at the apartment.  Great time.  Followed by a huge living room, dining room, kitchen clean-up.  Then back here, sit down to unwind with some tv and a sudoku… and suddenly realize…

I HAVEN’T POSTED TODAY!!!

Get up and running and onto the site with less than 1 minute to go.  Hit Add New Post… it takes forever… page finally shows… type in Day… hit publish… and look at the clock on the computer.   11:59:48… will it?  will it? YES!!!  I published before midnight. Everything you have read here was added later.   Timing is everything.

Hospice day today.  Went out to see patients… talk to them… pray with them… try to give them some sense of peace.  It’s amazing the different reactions I get the first time I show up.  Everything from “Thank you, father, for coming” to “Go away. I don’t want anything spiritual”.  People are all so different.  I guess that’s what makes it interesting.

So.  Time to chill out.  Read the signs and take care of other things in my life rather than focusing on the teachings.  Not as if there aren’t other things to do.  So back to the three rules of life:

1. Be happy;
2. Be kind;
3. That’s it.

Why make things any more complicated than they have to be?
