The Moments Before Departure. June 19, 2014. Departure always leaves a hole in the heart. It marks the end of one season and the beginning of another. That sense of grief that I prefer to keep some distance from comes right up to the surface. It’s impossible to escape the heart opening double helix of love and release all at the same time. Indeed it seems love and grief are woven into the same fabric. The Nature of Bears. Certainty is not dependable. On The Unhindered Mind. On The Unhindered Mind.

October 8, 2014. 8220;How do you feel about leaving Upaya? Contrary to the popular images of cool flowing waters and delicately balanced stones, Zen is not a vacation retreat of relaxation and gentle disconnection. Our minds tend to have preferences. It’s true isn’t it? How do I feel about leaving Upaya? Oddly neutral. The schedule says on the morning of October 8th, after the morning mediation I leave these lovely foothills above Santa Fe and start my way back to St. Louis. The Nature of Bears.

Certainty is not dependable. September 1, 2014. The light of certainty creates blind spots. It freezes perception and disengages the process of paying attention. Certainty feeds a primal hunger for stability, plays into the illusion that the ground of life is inherently stable, that we are not building our lives on Time’s shifting sands. Certainty pursued as an end in itself leaves the color out of life. We see a world of solidity. There is a comfort that comes with certainty. It allows a moment of relax...

September 12, 2014. It is said that meditation will not bring enlightenment. Enlightenment tends to happen by accident, but meditation can make you accident prone. Mainstream media like Time magazine. Dogen Zenji, the 13th century Japanese monk who brought Zen from China to Japan says one should “sit simply for the sake of sitting.” This sentiment has echoed down through the centuries in Zen.

A Journey with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Posts Tagged ‘blueberries’. June 12, 2016. Eddie and I were in Bartell’s the other day and I saw some Apricot-Pineapple jam from Smuckers. It immediately reminded me of the jam Mom used to make from scratch – I loved her apricot-pineapple the best. I had to buy it and then Eddie and I started talking about it because he loved the apricot jam his Mom made. Funny (peculiar) how something so simple can generate so many wonderful memories.
