wandering aimlessly amongst my thoughts, i realized i was seeking a cause...something to put my heart into, something to throw the weight of my actions behind.

before me lie a plethora of problems facing the world. these problems are not of my direct creation, they don't belong to any single one of us, they belong to the indirect 'all' of us.

whether our fore-parents started the actions and industries which we now continue, matters not.

we, the All, hold momentary control over the shape and direction our lives take; no more, no less. our ancestors had the same and our descendants will also.

living in-the-moment is terribly complex. there are a myriad of competing things in one's life needing attending to. some tasks are simply practical matters, but all actions carry emotional layers or signatures, if you will.

emotional layering occurs when held-knowledge is challenged by new incoming information. knowledge is cumulative and results in the causes behind your actions.

each cause holds certain outcome expectations.

the strength and size of these expectations indirectly determines how much emotional layering will occur with the advent of the outcome. for instance, out-sized expectations are sure to cause emotional trauma if the outcome is drastically different than expected.

the emotional signature is really a signature of some perceived cause amongst a vortex of information. out of your accumulated knowledge you derive reasons for acting and thinking the way you do. you set up expectations over your reasoned outcomes.

expectations result in emotional and sometimes physical pain when not met. unless pain is your goal, it generally clouds the efficacy of your actions and diminishes the probability of your success.

to expect is to trap yourself in the perceived validity of your reason for being. change is woven in the fabric of time, it cannot be denied. your reasons will come under fire, under stress. life external will challenge your 'causes.'

sure you must have a conceived goal behind everything you do, but you must not throw the weight of your emotional expectations behind it. to do so invites eventual knowledge failure through destined change.

we must learn everything but remain always learners. we must never be above learning.

we all arrived in the moment and made something out of it. the cumulative knowledge of the species evolves according to these somethings-made.

given this moment, what would we like to make of it?

delayed gratification

2010-05-25T19:14:00.000-07:00

Life really is about delayed versus instant gratification.

Material acquisition is a delicate balance, a fine line to walk within your being.

To have is to hold. How you hold things is important and will lead to happiness or not.

The frenetic pace of our lives tempts us with instant gratification...often short-lived.

I ask you this: is long-term happiness the goal?

Then we must weather our emotional storms and fight the urge to owN, oWN, OWN, OWN! MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE!

Only a fool does not see that the current rate of resource consumption will lead to scarcity, changes in the weather patterns, and if continued, drought, famine, disease and finally death of species.

Being happy is the goal and true happiness comes from letting your desires cool off and gleaning their lessons over time.

Desire has its proper time and place. You are here to find the proper channeling of your desires. May they lead not to destruction or demise.

the risK of expediency - shutter effect

2010-04-21T18:20:00.000-07:00

everything has its own proper flow of time. one must be attentive to the juxtaposition of perceived flow versus actualized flow.

rushing decisions or unnecessarily delaying decisions will tamper your perceptions and expose you to endangerment and/or stupidity.

constant rushing or constant unnecessary delaying leads to psychological neurosis of all measures and eventually to maladies of the body.

finding the flow is thus crucial to your survival and maintaining it once found may lead to long-term happiness.

sync up your mind-body-spirit triad and hunt the flow whose home is beyond all doors.

2009-11-27T17:09:00.001-08:00

Moving between spheres of chance,

our hearts alight on love's ether.

There lies a joy incomparable. A superior way of being

beset upon by the sublimest discretion

leading the narrowest paths to freedom.

Please keep in mind, loves divine.

lust o' Arjuna

2009-05-17T11:14:00.000-07:00

Topically, it occurs to me that our sexuality has not come to terms with its power.

Throughout history humanity has struggled with how to handle lustful urges. Like most things it has always been an issue of control versus freedom. Restrained ways of the past gave birth to revolution in the sixties. And now some believe they can achieve a transcendent mind through sex and sex alone.

Returning to reptilian brain impulses and quieting the integrated higher minds is in direct contradiction to our evolutionary increase in brain size and thought complexity.

The fulfillment of sensory gratification carries psychological and physical consequences.

Conclusions drawn through repetitive behavior induce habituation which can promote greater understanding or introduce confusion.

Sensuality must be liberated from base sexual desire fulfillment; it has been mislabeled too long, usurped by those with only baseless lust in their eyes.

We are all sensual, it is a function of our species which provides us feed back between our inner and outer worlds. Sniff. Touch your toes. Close your eyes. Listen to the music.

Being sensual is matter of exuding confidence and need not result in action.

In the future fit, happy people will exude loads of sensuality but will restrain their passions. This will be their success because history has taught them that respect of proper boundaries yields transcendent awareness.

Set loose from repressive conceptions, sexually liberated individuals will live passionate lives in dedicated relationships. Like a delicate flower love awakens in the soul of lifelong lovers. Sacred communion requires significant time and effort and yields exponential soul growth.

Be not deceived by lust for anything. Awaken through moderation, the harder but higher road.

Communally the higher road less traveled must become a vast highway traversed by we the happy all.

for progressive refinement of the species it is in the best interest of the universe to present challenges.

challenges force us to confront our holdings.

that which you hold constricts your lungs with thought overwrought

deep challenges must be met with a force beyond confidence
...a shear strength of will committed to confront the lesson to learn from its ebb and flow

rise UP when time calls

join together your spirit and your actions

loving yourself requires an honest assessment of healthy values held and exerted

you love others by respecting their boundaries

love draws relationships t-o-g-e-t-h-e-r...together

free your talk of mindless chatter, learn to communicate deeply and truly

in love's communion there is strength

2009-03-16T21:46:00.000-07:00

intrepid warriors keep the faith

frugal times present many lessons

seek the wholeness that is you

become that wholeness through integration
of your student/ teacher states

free your communication of friction
with genuine respect and bridled truth

flow freely between dedicated action and true listening
character develops in its purest form this way

fret not the opinions of naysayers
stay true to higher ideals

empty yourself of expectations
then set some of your own

learn to live in resonance with your surroundings
recognize dissonance immediately

there exist places where men can talk freely
can confront their history and rewrite their futures

a new man emerges unwilling to compromise ideals,
humble enough to learn life's lessons
& bent on finding clear communication
maybe even fostering some himself

water's solvent meters toxicity
either self or externally applied

water of life, an ancient code of respect
for a powerful resource

...speaks of sub-quantum waves traveling nothingness,
emanating probabilities across infinity

blessings abound of life-giving qualities,
plucking causal strings the heart of water beckons love

Three years, a mere drop in time

2008-10-20T09:43:00.001-07:00

The last three years of my life have been filled with love.

As I write this my feet are floating above the clouds of Romania thousands of miles from my home.

Even as I remain detached from known soils, I am aware of a well deep in my being connecting me to Amalia.

Love is a beautiful, haunting mystery that occupies the vastness of soul. Far too often love's depths are left unexplored and its blessings left unwrapped.

Within the commitments of our marriage, we have opened doors of mystery and tapped into sources of previously unimaginable beauty.
Wisdom wrapped in patience, compassion blossomed through listening and intimacy reached through bridled lust are but a few lessons learned in these few short years.

As a rosebud slowly opens each petal, its beauty and precious scent washes into the world. Three years ago I had but the conception of such beauty within Amalia's being. Each day, as her woman/person hood develops, I recognize that I am blessed to travel life's width and breadth at her side.

Our journey has not been without trials but our commitment to communication even under duress has provided a stable base to work through our disagreements and misunderstandings.
It is my belief that the keys to human community lie within the dedicated commitments of focused relationships. Humans must first face themselves in such relationships before they can fully understand the greater web of communal life.

Amalia's love calls me to a higher plane, a more complete existence. Her love, her being comforts me like the warm rays of an autumn evening sun. Her gentleness and her grace bring peace and stability to those who know her. Her innocence is tempered by a growing inner strength anchored in the knowledge of what is good and what is true.

Amalia Jude, I am blessed and honored to be your husband, friend and lover. Your love humbles me.

Ti amo

Warrior men

2008-09-30T18:45:00.000-07:00

Driven for success, the male species strives to overcome adversities introduced in antiquity. The game is still the same today.

When do you suppose the males of the species will realize self-governance is the next evolution?

As the game of 'who do you trust?,' plays out on the world stage, may we all take this opportunity to recognize the undeniable
instabilities produced by greed. Yeah, well done!

We are awash in information. The sources are many and increasing. Now seems like a good time to invoke a
Cool Hand Luke response to swirling bullshit as it piles up around you. The warrior must filter and revoke the lies from infecting his perception.

As a good friend of mine once said, "you gotta give back."

Warrior men pay back impeccable actions in thanks for the life given them. A warrior takes a position riding herd above temptations of his ego. With clarity of purpose honed through superb listening skills, the new man faces the future into certainty.

The lenses of history are important weapons against indolence. Stupidity resulting from ignorance is not an endearing trait to be sought.

In terms of the history of everything, it is only within the recent past that the male of the species has taken a familial role.

As with other pursuits, with great gusto a warrior approaches his relationships.

Married warriors treat their women like queens, for in the wiles of the feminine mystery, great pearls of wisdom reside. Were you to listen to her without reserve, you may coax such deep knowledge from her.

Standing in the stead, a warrior embraces many times his load without complaint. There are lessons around every curve.

Warrior men seek efficient communication for deeper awareness. For only when the halls of the inner world are clear can a warrior devote awareness for greater purpose.

Flowing freely a warrior weaves viewpoints in order to follow his greater purpose, a meeting of his full creativity and his genetic history.

Listen to them bicker in the halls of government as machines of their blessings or ignorance come crashing down on Wall Street. These are not the men we are to become. Ours is different path of transcending whims and receding self-importance.

Warrior men are more than their clothes, more than their muscles and their tools...but they are not more than the purpose of their actions.

Warriors must shift freely between student/ teacher states. When called, they lead with grace and resolve and in turn, bow in respect to blessings of wisdom, no matter the source.

the warrior

2008-09-21T20:00:00.000-07:00

Death makes a worthy adversary of a warrior. A warrior may utilize the awareness of his pending demise to promote critical shifts in his awareness.

Every encounter presents a mingling of awarenesses and warriors always seek the higher planes. Lower planes of awareness represent less-comprehensive knowledge.

A warrior seeks knowledge to elevate to wisdom.

Knowledge is the understanding of the technical features, wisdom accesses the creative intent.

A warrior respects the paths of other warriors and celebrates in their diversity, but gives short shrift to those seeking lower paths.

Inefficiency is a warrior's nemesis and a warrior recognizes that intentions behind lower paths waste energies through muddled comprehension.

All energies seek balance and human activities are no exception. The awakening and growth of the human consciousness through various computations of self and external reality have played out over history.

In the long-run, the diaspora of belief systems is/was inevitable. Clashing belief systems can lead to disagreements.

All other means must be exhausted before a warrior resorts to the use of force.

Excellent listeners warriors must become through a ruthlessness about self-pity.

A warrior should not regret his or her beginnings. Healing begins when a warrior chooses to take up the yoke of self-care and see it through to natural behavior.

Natural is different from Innate. Innate are the body's reactions, natural is the flow of efficient behavior.

The path of impeccability calls always for a warrior's tread. Impeccability climbs to higher planes of awareness, broader fields of wisdom. The view is through the heart pierced in the mind.

Warriors will find the efficiency of an impeccable path leads to a pleasant flow of action conducive to healthy living.

For too long have exaggerated sexes dominated history. Warriors don't fall prey to pitfalls of self-pity. Warriors free their self-worth from distracting projections of exaggerated self.

Deciphering undercurrents of the sub-conscious, a warrior heeds dreaming. Warriors learn to stay present while riding emotional waves.

They do not behave to be right, they do it to be impeccable.

Step backward through the shroud of time to see the dimensionless truth haunting your mind, heed its direction. Then strive to balance your core in order to move your awareness with confidence.

Warriors eliminate qualifiers from their communication.

pyramid of paragon

2008-09-18T20:41:00.001-07:00

in the shine of the eyes, love may be amplified with patience

for in the waiting, perspectives may change
possibly for the wiser.

as windows to life's creative soul, the light of love shining
in your eyes is a directive.

as communal animals we must recognize
that external visions are mirrored inward!

love protects it is not weak.

love is strong and decisive.

love is in action and put it into action we must.

The stifling social rigidity of the pre-sixities created a bubble bursting with drug-infused notions of free love. Love is not free, love requires dedication.

a core tenet of survival directives,
humans respond to love's beacon

build a paragon life following love's direction.

as love begets love, unlove begets unlove

the spirit draws near

2008-09-11T21:11:00.000-07:00

The conception of spirit is shrouded by projections of upbringing.

Spirit is the totality of creative life force present.

The human development of religion as conceptualization of human connection to spirit has taken many forms amongst Earth's cultures. The form of spiritual enlightenment varies according to the religion.

Taking account of the past, one may rectify the future by breaking down constructed inner hindrances to a path of impeccability.

Impeccable warriors heed silent knowledge's lessons.

A new type of warrior is emerging efficiently on the impeccable way.

transcend and include*

2008-09-07T17:42:00.001-07:00

Digesting the wildness and wilderness we recently experienced in Colorado and Wyoming, i realized that deep down at the level of fear, where proximity to Grizzlies and Wolves redefines one's sense of self, the moment must be consulted for measures of truthful perceptions.

Yellowstone was/is wonderful.
(Interesting people watching too.)

Like window shoppers we drove through, waiting for something wild to alight before us. The wildness-shopping adventurers came in all shapes, sizes and colors to gawk at the wild things contained. Unfortunately my perception of the general state of humanity and Americans in particular, was
not generally improved.

We should be thankful that we still have these windows into wilderness left. Dare i say we should be paying homage to these places with lean, healthy bodies, instead of getting winded walking 200 yards?

Pixar's latest, WALL-E paints a sad reality packaged in shiny cuteness; for when the crowning moment of humanity is being able to stand and walk, you know something's amiss
in the mind-body connectivity.

i have since realized that humans are both self-domesticating and self-convicted. They build structures to contain themselves and their "properties," and are convicted by whatever ideology they choose to follow.

a useful hint: ideological encroachment is most effective as a learning tool for the soul.

The preponderance of the soul as the ideological house of your creative life force, is simple in comparison to the web of ideological clashes facing humanity.

Don't we see that as a child absorbs the ideological hand-me-downs of parents and community,
his or her behavior and belief systems develop?

If the fate of our children are held in incompetent arms,
we must delve inward for answers.

Children's education is a based upon historically held beliefs.

Historical belief systems were once geographically isolated but are thus no more.

Ideology clashes threaten survival
so self-limitations should be enforced.

Review the logical juxtaposition of "self"
and the external world.

The removal of logical inconsistencies promotes
efficiency of thoughts and actions thereby improving chances for knowledge and wisdom to accumulate.

Self-limitation is behavioral evolution.

"The average man acts only if there is the chance for profit. Warriors say they act not for profit but for the spirit."
~The Power of Silence by Carlos Castaneda

*The title phrase, "transcend and include," is a prime tenet of Ken Wilber's work accessed HERE.

a bright spot

2008-07-28T18:39:00.001-07:00

well after a fairly rough start to the week, i encountered a bright spot waiting on my doorstep at home. my Raichle Montagna boots have been repaired and resoled, and the new Vibram rubber looks like fun. we got lugs!

these boots have become like good, comfortable friends over the span of our currently thirteen year old relationship...and i'm looking forward to our upcoming foray into the Rockies.

Thanks to Cobbler Dave Page out of Seattle for the quality repair!

they just don't make boots like they used to...cliche but true.

age-worthy denotes efficient use of materials!!!

hopefully the resistance met today will yield learning for tomorrow.

the Efficienado movement

2008-07-23T20:00:00.000-07:00

only a cohesive groundswell of ecologically-minded individuals can stand a chance of changing the course of destructive consumption occurring in the world today.

perhaps such education cannot be spread in time to stem the toxic backlash facing Earth's humanity.

as greedy producers chant, "Get ______ quick!" slogans, the population's addiction to the silver-bullet philosophy leaches production byproducts into our environment and leaves mounds of "attractive" packaging to fill our landfills and litter our oceans.

the aggressive consumption model derives from a blitzkrieg of information and advertisements that draw consumers into wasteful buying patterns.

for humanity to produce a functional alternative to such mass degradation of resources, it must first purge itself of aggressive individualism coupled with excessive feelings of entitlement.

the population must wrest back control of their minds in order to see the wasteland developing in the wake of greed.

Efficiency must be redefined to include calculations of health and well-being for all affected ecosystems and their members.

As Efficienados, the emerging conscious humans will recognize that while tool usage is responsible for their specie's survival, the supposed necessity of said tools must be weighed for all cultural and ecological impacts.

tools reducing ecological or individual health, directly or indirectly, should be either improved or eliminated.

Efficienados will consider their actions for all health benefits, either internal or external in kind. They will filter their consumptive behavior for wasteful purchases.

connoisseurs of efficiency will know that contentment is a product of inner balance displayed through external acts of conservation.

only such cohesive awareness may topple vestiges of greed.

neuronic shifts in awareness

2008-07-10T21:51:00.000-07:00

self-realization occurs as a mental reflection upon the philosophical juxtaposition of your actions and the exterior world.

these tenuous boundaries determine the prime tenets in current neuronic resonance. the alignment of these tenet resonances with external truth act as anchors against the dangers of false perceptions and false projections.

awareness is constructed around core interconnected webs of knowledge that traverse the brain's lobes amidst sparks of sensory perception.

shifts in awareness are necessary to gain a more complete understanding.

ladder up

2008-07-09T20:17:00.000-07:00

seeking control is dangerous because power easily corrupts the mind's calculation of self.

control must be harnessed by love to produce truth consistent.

hanging on cliff ledges in your mind's bioneuronic arena is good for conceptional balance.

listen to the lilting voices of children and hear the innocence

adults' reflected conceptions upon children set forth mental frame works offering some world-view. in such things, humans must realize and admit the power that love has to grow balanced world-views.

give praise to the life that created a version of you amongst the human consciousness experiment in order to seek the evolution of the species.

changing tides

2008-07-05T17:06:00.001-07:00

humanity may one day learn to swallow its ego but until then it is up to us as individuals to harness the life blessed us through recognition of the innate symbiotic nature of our existence.

nothing exists in a vacuum, humans are no exception.

your digestive tract relies upon a symbiotic relationship with independent intestinal microbiota and these types of relationships abound and bind the natural living world.

if we are to believe that our species evolved from this planet, we must recognize and understand the implications of unchecked resource consumption and population growth propagated by humans.

would be funny if humans scratched and scrawled all the way up the species chain only to decimate their environment for vanity's greed-ful sake...cosmically funny of course.

wake up and breath brethren, we are all here together sharing this air, drinking this water and tilling this soil.

decode your existence through
the media absorbed throughout your life.

who are you without l'accoutrement?

we have sacrificed savage nobility of the wild for posturing and preening in concrete jungles

...yet growing in depth and understanding is the need for balance within the human consciousness.

as a male i recognize the often brutal history of patriarchal dominance and believe that our specie's evolution requires a new mode of man. a man who seeks balance internally and externally.

men who can swallow their pride in order that they may learn from any situation. men who reason out that love leads the most balanced way of living.

the nouveau man recognizes that attention leads often to consent, and thus he guards his thoughts, paying close attention to the surrounding sources of information for lies and truth.

these evolved men are unafraid of leading with integrity and will forgo their dignity for love's sake.
