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 […]

Alan Watts: short and sweet
This is a wonderful little clip that describes precisely what I write about in my books and on this blog. I hope you will have a listen! Book Information
Your Life Is Set
Your life is set, like a table. You are always there, here, in a place among other things, people, surfaces. You can brace against that physical life-setting by tensing your muscles and fighting in your thoughts, or not. Either way, you are still occupying that space, physically (like part of a table-setting), in a room, […]
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 […]
Automaticity of Time and Action
Time is all that needs to occur to make everything happen and that is free, completely free. It is our proof that there is nothing to figure out or generate. See how it comes by itself. There is nothing you need to feel you have to do, nothing. There is no such thing as doing […]
Wrong Ideas
If there is something you believe you should be doing right now that you are not, what is wrong is your belief and idea that you should be doing it, not the fact that you are not. The idea that we should be (fill in the blank) right now is wrong, not the fact that we […]
Stuck Where We Are
Anything we don’t understand about our life we can consider a mystery of nature. We are 100% natural organisms that follow physical laws as is everything else in the universe, just a variation on the theme, a different arrangement of molecules, as biologist Jerry Coyne once put it. So, our behavior abides by laws of […]
Absent of Meaning
Where we find our body is the only place it can be. There is no other possibility of action for any given moment. This removes choice in the way we generally think of it. Without the option of choice, we are left with the physical conditions of our body and its activity, no differently than […]
A Mirage of Imaginative Doing
The myth of doing, as I entitled my second book, refers to the illusion that there is something we can do to enable things to happen in our life. It is like a fleeting mirage of this “thing” we can do that is other than where our body just is in space, in its activity, […]
