I have been busy with several projects these days, so I have decided to take the rest of the week off from the blog. I’ll still post a video or two (just to keep google happy, not to mention my RSS subscribers), and if something big happens I’ll post on it as soon as possible.
I’ll [...]
After my post on the recent illness of Adyashanti, I had a few e-mails from some readers that know nothing about him. That is a bit surprising, knowing how far into the spiritual world he is.
Here is a video of Adyashanti speaking on awareness and the self. Hope you enjoy! (Although, there are a number [...]
I know you say there is nothing to search for, nothing to do, nowhere to go, yada-yada, but I want to do it. I have decided to go for it, and thats what I want to devote my energy to. Without telling me not to do it, or that I don’t need to, can you [...]

From Ozren, at the announcement of the commencement for this series:
Maybe you could start with “Being.” What is this Being “thing?”
Initially, I was not going to include this entry into the A to Z of Being because it is generally understood. I have never really been asked about it in the past. [...]
Isn’t self inquiry just another form of seeking?
Someone might consider self-inquiry to be “seeking,” and I can see that. But the emphasis is that there is no reliance on outside authority.
With inquiry you neither accept or reject anything. It is just there. You see it for what it is, but if your thoughts are involved, [...]
This post comes from my journal dated March 5th, 2007.
We cannot really know anything about what happens at the point of death. How will we know when we are dead? We can be told by others (in fact, that is all we know), but what meaning does that have for us? The only way to [...]
I found this video via the Blog of Tim Ferris. It is an incredible example of one’s physical potential.
This movement seems to be a combination of Capoeira, Break-Dancing, and Gymnastics. The amount of strength needed to pull-off some of these moves is amazing, but this guy (Junior) seems to move effortlessly.
