Space to Move
To renovate, to renew, to revive we must clear away blockages. What is it that makes something a blockage? Resistance? Can you renovate without removing anything? Maybe by enclosing all the old stuff in a new package, but that’s not really renovating. Abandoned perception. First perhaps a clarification of will. That thing that I mention…

Our Quantum Zeno Effect
Guess what seems to be the foundation of any stability in our world? They are even depending on it for the advancement of quantum computing. Shall I just say? Holding multiple perceptions? Actually, I will get into that. They call it the quantum zeno effect. The more something is observed, the more steadily, the more…

A Shadow Across Time Space
Space is three dimensional. This takes no wild stretch of the imagination. Time is also three dimensional. In our normal experience, we perceive time to play out over dimensions of space. We perceive ourselves to age over the dimension of space we allocate to our bodies, but in general, time seems to be invisible to…

Repossess the Resident
Shall I reveal what actual “house” it is that you renovate? Well, it’s framework is made up of all the freeze frame moments of the self. Each version of you forming a pillar in the architecture. Remember the quantum zeno effect? Nothing can move? You are being perpetually observed, so you have in fact never…

Differing Approach
Do you do what you do with your frustration, because it’s frustration? We adults have reasons. What if you handled frustration as frustration and didn’t make up reasons for it? How would you behave? How else to handle it? Oh, you make up reason for your frustration, and make up things you are supposed to…

Cut the Knot
Space [female] is not always willing or available for Time’s [male] possibilities….or is she? It always is. That’s a human notion and not a natural notion. We don’t see the middle ground, the common ground, and we only fail to see it because we aren’t looking. You are looking everywhere but at the ground you…

Operating On Sensation
Does trauma make memory sharper or more weakened? It makes it sharper and more distorted. More narrow. It’s like you learn first aid and think you will never be able to remember everything in an emergency, but somehow you do. Exactly. For myself, the experience of my first breast feeding was negative. I was allergic…

Vision of the Soul
So my point is this, just as important genetic code is conserved, important bits of experience are conserved, and not because they are building a self. Your self doesn’t grow like an organism. It is already a very vast presence. It preserves those special elements of experience, because these things are recognized as something the…

Concern Over Circumstance
When painting you require both a subject and a medium. Where do we draw our subject for our creative work? Are there creative subjects in the world around us? Based on our perceptions isn’t everything creative? Is anything of it’s own nature a creative subject. Does anything suggest it’s own creative essence? There is a…
Category: Self
Self awareness is the first spirit. The first sphere or plane of existence. Signs of self are always two, one dream, one nightmare. Those two facets, the vivid and the darkened, are on the same level. Self awareness is returning to the middle way. Continuing to recognize despite the vastness of it all that you are still present and able to choose.
Self is life. It’s why we are concerned with life, but how do we lose self awareness? How do we become creatures of our experience only? How do we fall asleep? If you seek truth, if you desire wisdom above all else, this is life. Heed your beating heart, listen to the whispers of your breath, and remember that you stand upon the earth.
