Letting Go Ego: Cleaning the Inside of the Cup
Cleaning the Inside of the Cup Years ago an elderly friend insisted that her suffering was great and no one else could possibly understand. A different friend insisted that in the important things of life—birth and death—and probably the decision making that goes on between, must always be done alone. The question always came up about their very different stances about this thing called aloneness. They came from two almost opposite philosophical positions about life, one a Christian fundamentalist and the other an accomplished and sought after physician who was eclectic in her pursuit of...
Read MoreWonderful Zen Poem – Bacho
Does It Matter If It’s a Summer Day There is a wonderful Zen poem that goes this way: Who made the world? Who made the swan, and the black bear? Who made the grasshopper? This grasshopper, I mean— the one who has flung herself out on the grass, the one who is eating sugar out of my hand, who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down— who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.

. New Style of Business Person Arises Every person we meet can teach us something of value! It is an honor to introduce you to a man I recently met who embodies and practices a new business ethic, a value system born of years of meditation and of pain. He is unbelievably sensitive to what others are experiencing interiorily. The immediacy of his laughter lightens every moment. I showed him my media kit and told him I didn’t think it sparkled much. After all, I thought media people and producers were interested in pizzazz and sparkle. Was I ever wrong! I was looking for somebody with Public...
Read MoreTrinity and the Soul
For awhile the question of the evolution of the soul has been a subject of interest and there is some inner urgency to find an answer. To find the answer from an esoteric perspective, it seems to be necessary to take into consideration the subject of the Trinity.The Trinity prevails in both Eastern and Western thought and it is central to the tradition of the Ancient Wisdom. So the question right now seems to be: from the perspective of the Perennial Philosophy (Ancient Wisdom), what does life at the center of our solar system, per A Treatise on White Magic, have to do with the soul’s...
