A Course in Miracles: Lesson 4

Lesson 4 These thoughts do not mean anything.  They are like the things I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place]. I honor the time I have taken in silence and on retreats, in particular to Vipassana Centers for a ten-day sit.  I can recall meditations where I have […]

A Course in Miracles: Lesson 3

Lesson 3 I do not understand anything I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place].

Sitting in Limbo

A pause between two musical notes.  The pause between the exhale and inhale, the inhale and the exhale.  The eloquent pause between the ticks of a clock, wondering what happens to time when the clock doesn’t tick, the time between when the moment flows into another?  In television, it is the moment when Barney Stinson […]

Just Show Up

Just show up. That is all one needs to do, so I have been told over the years. But what does that really mean to “just show up?” For many years, I have taken that to mean something very superficial such as just showing up for work, just showing up to the gym, just showing […]
