What is action? I view action as a sentence we can make to describe our body in the space right now. For example, I am sitting in a chair typing on the computer. That is my current action. Though we call it the present tense, this action can only be acknowledged after the fact of […]

The Answer to All Our Problems
Fall is coming here in Maine. I can feel it. It’s been a few weeks I can sense the change; although we will still get some hot days this week. So interesting to have the evenings and nights cooler. There is a mixed feeling of pleasure and darkness with fall and winter around the corner. […]
Sharing the Path: My Tour of Mindfulness
Mindfulness has always come easily to me, or I should say I’ve been drawn to it for a long time. The concept of “what is” made sense to me in my early 20’s when having a discussion with my father about goals in life. We were having some conversation at my grandparent’s house, about what […]
Sharing the Path: Guilt, Therapy and Self-Inquiry
As I have now been a self-published author for 6 years, have written two books and am 3 ½ years into my third, I would like to take this blog in a new direction. Thus far I have written in the style of the subject matters in my books. Being that there are many aspects […]
The Body in Real Time
I watch to see what this body does, without knowing what it will do. I marvel at the magic of movement. I fascinate at how there is always something it does. Something gets done in real time. That is what I did. That is what I do, nothing more, nothing less. It is OK […]
Under the Effort
Under our mental and muscular effort we see our body in the space, weight falling onto some surface, bones moving in some capacity. Under our mental and muscular effort we realize our body is already in some specific action, doing something. Under our mental and muscular effort we understand what real action is […]
The Things We Have To Do
We have to do what we are doing, the things we see ourselves doing, where our body is, now, its physical, weighted placement in space, bones moving at joints, how and as they do: this action, these actions. It can be only those, not others. Can’t know why, just the way it is, all of […]
True Nature
True nature is what is, not what we believe should be (if it’s not what’s happening). We must abide. There are no options other than what nature provides. Bad guys are part of nature. They exist equally to all else. When they will be gone, we will know because we will see. Movement is movement. It all […]
What’s the Matter?
Your body is simply where it is. You can see this. And, here it is again, with the next stroke of the clock. There was nothing to do to make that progression of time or presence in space happen. No effort. This is how our whole life will be, never anything more complicated, even if […]
On the World Map
I receive joy in knowing we get everything that will ever be for us for free. Nothing can be left out. This is because our body is never not existing in the space. If it is in a state of constant existence, it is in a state of constant somewhereness. Somewhere means engaged in some type […]
