Eddies in the Stream

Posted in awakening/evolving, conditioning/mind, insights on March 9, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

“Just before quantum potentiality coalesces into actuality, the eternally emergent edge of now is as free as anything can ever be.”
A beautiful, poetic story of the new neuro-dharma. I found it very moving. Take the time to read all the way through to the end : )

The Death of the False Sense of Authorship

Posted in awakening/evolving, from Wayne Liquorman, insights, inspirations on March 5, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

A short clip from Wayne’s last visit. With each of his visits to London, my heart opens more and more to Wayne and his simple, profound message to inquire for ourselves into the true nature of things. During his weekend talk, one of things that moved me most from what he had to share was [...]

Then and Now?

Reading through some old emails, this one was found about sharing group, it was written nearly two years ago, wow! who was that person? how was he connected to words like that? who is that person now? Feels like he’s falling into not knowing, into humaness, into innocence.

In a letter a friend wrote:
“… there are many many things that can keep us in our mind habit being one of them yes, but our many unexpressed feelings can block us too .”
My response:
Interesting questions: Mental habits and unexpressed feelings are blocking us. Therefore we need to try to overcome the habits, and to [...]

Haiti in my heart

Posted in fear/guilt/shame, insights, love/joy/gratitude, responsibility, tagged , on January 27, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

Looking at what’s been happening in the world the past weeks I came to see once again the insignificance and yet the preciousness of a single life, including mine.
It’s such an easy thing to feel touched by what I read in the newspapers, then make a donation, write a few emails to friends encouraging them [...]

Satori experience

Posted in awakening/evolving, insights, tagged , on January 4, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

The Satori process is something I have known about for many years, and had been resisting doing just as long. If anyone knows about the “Enlightenment Intensive” version of the process, you’ll know just how long… The story I told myself was that it was too much work, too tiring, and that I probably wouldn’t [...]

I recently attended a one-day vision summit in Berlin on the subject of microfinance, social business, and social entrepreneurship.
I am not a banker, an economist or a businesswoman but I have an interest in these topics, as it seems that in this realm of activity exciting solutions are emerging that address, with intelligence, some of [...]

Rage

Posted in insights, judgement/anger, responsibility, tagged , on November 20, 2009 | 20 Comments »

Anger and violence, like sex, are hot topics that tend to stir people up. This was certainly evident in last night’s sharing group where these energies were being experienced in some, and (in my perception) controlled or suppressed in others. I certainly had an exhilarating ride of a group, and this morning woke with some [...]

This is a fantastic series of lectures by the psychiatrist Daniel Siegel MD given at the Upaya Zen Center. He is explaining brain function. This in-depth look is interspersed with meditation sessions and contemplation exercises that compliment all the information.

The Dumbest Generation?

Posted in awakening/evolving, insights, tagged , on October 8, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

Earlier this year I was researching about online support for young people for a beautiful YouthCharity. Today I came accross this article on EnlightenNext Magazine and really liked Tom Huston’s take on his generation. Born in 1972, clearly, I am part of what is called Gen X acknowledging the truth of our symptoms. Anyway, I am [...]
