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: 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 […]

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, […]
Now Actions
Your future actions will occur the same way as your past actions, since they are both just your now actions.
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 […]
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 […]
