Now, Sayulita

Mee is at don Pedros hanging with the MANGO MAMA'S. I'm sitting at the bar in Lalo and ginas playing with the computer and listening to the sounds of our world. Little girls playing in the pool , trucks on the dirt road outside the walls, and birds and waves breaking.

Everything about what I've called cool in life is offering me an engraved invitation to finish my work in Tennessee and come back home to Mexico and get busy here with what I love doing. I told my friend Dana Walden today that there are opportunities coming from 12 different directions , none of which you can see, and I'm so on it to follow my faith into the sunset.

Maybe what I've considered at times is going to be real, that is ...thru healing ways we humans will finally let go of our differences being the basis of perception and live with sharing experiences being the foundation. Good set up for an American guy to come to Mexico and streach his world to allow SPIRIT to create with him in a new reality. You can take TV's from culture to culture but healing ways are pretty sacred and we aren't very open to healing anyway unless we have had a taste.

So, Lalo sends me pics of an old Hacienda some where in Old Mexico. This after, yesterday, seeing the most beautiful compound here in Puerto Vallarta that for sure we want to create an Integrative Healing/ Recovery Center at.

What is so cool is that we humans are close to realizing that we can recreate our world any way we choose and we can make that choosing a rockin deal.All of that is coming and the admission price is we have to undo our attachment to being ..in reaction, the victum, less than, pissed off, drama queens...etc...we must get over the ourselves we've created for ourselves and come to believe we are and we aren't.

We are such suckers we really should not be allowed to believe anything for a time out. Ok wn't happen...but....So hey, whats coming to you that you won't get out of the way for? The only one keeps us from doing what we want is us. Vaya con dios.....

Key One#1. give More attention to where you are going than to where you have been.

Practice Key one for a while and lets see what happens.....

ETERNAL NOW-ADYASHANTI

***** My friend Maru sent this poem and all the words needed are set in perfect place and time...enjoy the gift of a master....

Eternal Now



Take a moment

to check and see if you are actually here.



Before there is right and wrong

we are just here.

Before there is good or bad, or unworthy,

and before there is the sinner or saint,

we are just here.

Just meet here, where silence is-

where the stillness inside dances.

Just here, before knowing something, or not knowing.

Just meet here where all points of view merge into one point,

And the one point disappears.



Just see if you can meet right now

where you touch the eternal,

and feel the eternal living and dying at each moment.

Just meet here-

before you were an expert,

before you were a beginner.



To just be here,

where you are what you always will be,

where you will add anything to this,

or subtract anything.



Meet here, where you want nothing,

and where you are nothing.

The here that is unspeakable.

Where we meet only mystery to mystery,

or we don´t meet at all.

Meet here where you find yourself

by not finding yourself.

In this place where quietness is deafening,

and the stillness moves to fast to catch it.



Meet here where you are what you want

and you want what you are

and everything falls away into radiant emptiness.
