And so it goes. Off to do hospice today, knowing that this may be the last time for months that I will actually be driving to patient’s homes… also knowing that I may actually have epilepsy… also knowing that I may never smoke pot again… also knowing that I sent an absolutely idiotic email to The New York Times Magazine. Oh, well. Time to regroup.

Off to the doctor today to find out what showed up in the MRI and EEG. I’ll be back.
And, in fact, I am back with info that the MRI showed some brain atrophy that is consistent with epilepsy. So now it’s off to the specialist to look into this even further.

More and more. The energy descends. On me. On the world. Here ‘I’ come. Here’s what I wrote today and sent to the NYTimes Magazine…
…………………………………..
Hello…
I’m writing to follow up on the email I sent you on the 14th of Nov. [attached below] First, to appologize for its terseness. I simply put Penetrating Black Holes out there on its own, without any editorializing or even letting you know that a copy had been sent to Dr. Stephen Hawking for his review. If I wanted you to publish my findings I certainly didn’t give you much to go on but the paper, itself. However, that having been said, I now want to put into context what this is really all about.
* * *
This is about New Consciousness, the understanding that God, Dark Energy, the Singularity at the start of and throughout the universe, whatever name you want to use… is nothing more nor less than the ‘I’ we all feel inside ourselves. The feeling of… “I AM”… inside the adjectives that make us unique. You and Me… writings these words… reading these words… we share the same consciousness. Your ‘I am’ and my ‘I am’ don’t just feel the same… they are the same. We are same “I AM”. This is New Consciousness.
*
Were this a physical evolution taking place, the emergence of a sixth finger or a new blood type that never existed before, we wouldn’t doubt its reality. It would be easy to see with the naked eye or some fancy instrument of technology and we could observe and measure its evolutionary progress. But New Consciousness occurs within our minds. It happens inside each individual one of us and cannot be seen from the outside except through group consciousness… though it is individually experienced. This is as big a step for evolution on this planet as when some primitive being first realized there was an ‘I’ in here in the first place.
Science and religion will agree on how the universe was created bolstered by irrefutable proof which anyone will be able to experience and reproduce. Knowing that all beings are truly connected at our very core will be game changing. We will no longer simply look out for #1 and the hell with you, but will live with compassion and practice altruism with the goal of creating good and uplifting all. New Consciousness will also add an additional dimension to our 3D universe. We will be able to share experiences across time and space, to follow evolution from non-aware matter through human mind, and know how the universe came into being. [e.g., Shredding the Event Horizon and the Evolution of Humanity… …Quantum Physics Meets Phenomenology, attached below.]
This giant evolutionary leap, however, unlike all previous ones, is voluntary. Humans are no longer simple creatures controlled by instinct and New Consciousness will not be force fed to us. Wanting to experience New Consciousness is an individual choice. Should enough humans choose to be so and a tipping point be reached, humanity will thrive and move into new eras of prosperity and joy, what some traditions call Heaven on Earth. If not, if self-centeredness and hatred for differences remain humanity’s buzzwords, then at some point the future will prove untenable and we will destroy ourselves and the planet on which we live.
I am a teacher of New Consciousness and have developed games and teachings that can lead anyone to New Consciousness if they really want to go. I am ready to share my findings; my forty years of readings and meditations, inner games and outer practices, academic papers and fanciful allegories, reasoned insights and blow-your-mind experiences. This is what I want to share with the world through The New York Times Magazine.
Oh. did I mention? I used to be a columnist for several magazines including Hudson Valley.
‘I am’ looking to touch down and I look forward to hearing back.

Eight years ago today, my mother died. I was at her side, performing therapeutic touch as she laid there in a coma. In keeping with her wishes, her body was cremated and small amounts of her… stored in single serving Tabasco Sauce bottles… have been given to family members who have sprinkled her from hot air balloons, into the Pacific ocean, and onto the Yankee Stadium bullpen, just to name a few. Today, is the start of crab season here in San Francisco and Emma and I will be heading out to a restaurant to celebrate. Of course, we will be taking Mom out with us. She wasn’t allergic to crab, only shrimp, so it’s okay. Miss you, mom.

It’s only 12:30 in the afternoon, and I’ve already gone to yoga and done sun salutes… shopped Trader Joe with Emma… come home and put the food away… decanted a cup of yesterday’s coffee… changed into my camo gear… and here I am standing at the computer… nothing to do for the next couple of hours but market New Consciousness. WooHoo. This is fun.

No way I’m going to miss today’s post. It’s only noon and I’ve already gotten a bunch of work done, including bringing our car down for tires and reading several chapters of a book on Integral Consciousness while waiting. Now input the info from yesterday’s hospice visits and I’m free to focus on New Consciousness for the rest of the day. Oh yes… I’ve also already done the day’s blog…. but obviously, you know that.

I can’t believe it. For only the second time all year I have missed a post. I’ve been sitting here watching television and doing sudokus and playing scrabble on the computer and then suddenly… here it is 12:08AM and I realize I have missed a post. What a doofus. Of course when you see this it will have the right date on it because it is possible to edit the date after the fact. But I know that I missed it and even more important… I’ve got to remember how to do the edit. Duh!

Just Doing What “I AM” Asked… an Autobiography of God. [working title]
On the whole it’s been a good day. After dropping Emma at her client, I checked in at CPMC for an eeg, had a really interesting discussion with the tech about consciousness… told him I’d send him a copy of the article I sent to Hawking… raced across town to St. Luke’s because the machine at Davies was broken but they could squeeze me in for the MRI there, got home and the mail hadn’t come yet from the DMV voiding my license till they find out why I’ve had those seizures… which means I can drive another day.
So I figured it’s a good day to start the novel. Why not. I’ve got to blog anyway, right? So today’s post will be the first paragraph of the book. Here’s where it starts. In my brain… in my mind… in here where “I AM”.

I’m still in somewhat of a shock… from the election and the impending loss of my driver’s license because of the several episodes I’ve had over the years. The possibility that I may be found to have epilepsy doesn’t bother me. I would still be the same whether or not I know what it is called. The limitations on my driving and my ability to see patients would be major. Or at least I think it would be. There is no question things will be different. However, even though I expected to wind down someday, I didn’t think it would be this soon. Oh, well. Perhaps all I need is a diagnosis and meds. My mother drove after all.
However, I do have to get out of this funk and get some work done.
