If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro’ narrow chinks of his cavern. [ William Blake, 1790 ] Ah, paradox! One seems to live in the known, in time, apparently, but in reality one lives only in the timeless, in fact. Whatever one is, is timeless. Living in paradox, in unknowing, is uncomfortable it seems for an imagined knower, but when the entire personal is seen as a dream, one can, and does, with grace, move beyond belief to a certain knowing and a resting there, in the unknown ..read more

The loving awareness of non-personal reality – what is, here and now in the living experiencing of aware being – is the portal to flowing well and truly in fidelity with reality, as it is, unfiltered by belief. ~ James and Filo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjXwrJwvsgk ..read more

To see reality in full is to plunge undistracted deeply into what is, free, without belief, and to be astonished. To behold creation in being. To know that I am, and to not know what I am. To marvel, touch and taste the selfness in all creation. To easefully sip and savor, and gracefully rest in wonder. ~ In aware living, we act not from unseen, inherited habits and age-old preferences and denials, but from a loving aware seeing of these built-in body/mind reactions. There’s a simple watching; a constant catching and releasing. In truth, there’s always a spacious letting go that’s ‘already d ..read more

Most of us, most of the time, hear but really don’t listen, look but really don’t see; we meet incoming facts with outgoing fictions, fancies and sundry filters; with already knowing; with yesterday’s opinions founded on hidden desires and fretful fears. That’s life and the non-living of it, yes.  Fortunately, there’s some who are open and opening, who listen and see, who recognize that all words (thought) are indeed merely pointers, symbols and representations of underlying non-personal facts, aka, truth in being. The following quotes from J Krishnamurti appeared in my email this morni ..read more

Will silence ‘inspire’ illumination? Will responses ‘enable’ resonance? Will Being ‘transmit’ Being to Being for Being? Let’s find out… https://fb.me/e/20C0BNfvI ..read more

[ can’t get any peace without quiet, dept. ] ODE TO MY KETTLE You’re warmly with me every morning, You’re sighing near me every night. You’re my constant companion. You sing and bring me such delight. In Canada it was dark hot coffee, In Italy your black tea was right. In America you served green tea, ’tis this morning’s quiet delight. Without you kettle, there’s no arising, no settling into the fading day. Whatever it is you’re doing, it’s easing me along the way. Truth too, ’twas there at my elbow, sipping with sinners, saints and sages. It was looking outside, over there, elsewhere. S ..read more

You are not what you think, in fact. * All thoughts gain their power from our believing or not believing them. Of course, that power is given without awareness, from the totally conditioned unconsciousness we learned to think is ‘me’ and which operates – like a hand inside a glove – producing at least 85 percent of our daily, repeated reactions ie ‘experiences’. Pay attention to the circus of thought; how certain thoughts ignite feelings and make the heart actually race with their invocation. Cease to believe, just for a few moments, and not only thoughts wither and fade away unsupported, b ..read more

There is this morning soft soundings in silence a choir quietly assembling singing and sighing rustling gently by feathering the light flowing the curtains soft as this flower petal that just now dropped elegantly to the floor over there by my door. This is the delicate musings of life seen, then heard no more. Still, this living sound awaits, without waiting here, and there, seen, and unseen not different from this ground that one is, this silvan silence this pastoral palate this beingness of silence ..read more
