Set the Intention. Get very clear about what you want to do. If it is to meditate. Then tell yourself “I want to mediate.”
How long, how much, how far, how wide, how loud — whatever parameters make sense? Perhaps something along the lines of “I want to mediate for 20 minutes.” Or, “I want to run 3 miles.”
Write down a description of this thing you are intending to do.
It may seem so simple and straightforward that you can’t imagine how writing down a description would help. Good, then it should be easy to write down. Whether it seems obvious to you are not, write down a short description. This will help in the process. Continue reading

Marathons and sprints are entirely different types of events. A runner will approach each of these events in a totally different way. A sprint requires a large, fast, but short duration expenditure of effort. A marathon is a much longer race requiring a consistent effort over a longer period of time.
Both events require will. But, a slightly different type of will in each case. Continue reading

A question was asked recently: “Hi..why does feeling peaceful feel unnatural and pain spiritual”
Here’s a portion of the reply: Continue reading
(Speaking of UBIK, here’s an interview with Dead Dick. Courtesy of the Bardotown Gazette.)
Bardotown Gazette Reporter (BG): Dick, how do you like being dead?
Dead Dick (DD): Tell me the truth, did you really like your first beer or cup of coffee? Didn’t it take a bit of getting used to? Death, like beer and coffee, is an acquired taste. As it is now, I wouldn’t want to live without being dead.
BG: Have you been working on any new books since your terminus?
DD: I have made some furtive attempts at ghost writing. So far I have not been able to find any Lightsiders that could put themselves and their own interests aside long enough to get even a novella out. I shouldn’t make it sound so negative. I have a coup
le of good prospects even as we speak. The trick seems to be to let them think that they are stealing my ideas and style for their own purposes. You may see some pretty interesting material during the next few years. I only hope they can learn to spell, punctuate and use grammar. Don’t you know that it must be a law somewhere that “those who are able are not willing and those who are willing are not able.”
BG: Were you satisfied with your recent lifetime, Dick?
DD: As you know, I am many different authors scattered throughout history — much like fingers poking through a piece of paper. From one perspective they look independent. But, when one is aware of the “hand-ness” that connects them, the synchronicities of action and cooperativeness of efforts no longer looks miraculous or mysterious. It is taken for granted that the fingers of a hand will work in concert. My most recent sojourn into the Lightside was quite useful. However, I think the most satisfying was
that cave thing in France. To tell a story within the constraints of a single wall was quite invigorating. I just wish we’d had a better blue to work with.
BG: Do you have anything that you would like to relate to our Lightside readers?
DD: First of all, has it occurred to you that your experience of me is just ink on pressed wood pulp? If you look too closely (as with a magnifying glass) even this black and white existence is shown to be a semi-organized chaos of dots. It’s all in the reading.
Each sculpture may be a communication.
That communication may be from you to another, you to yourself, another to you, or another to another, or any combination or all of the above.
The language of sculpture is rich with possibility.
Look, it’s real simple. When you are making a sculpture it does not matter whether you choose to work in abstract, post modern, or realism. As long as you are true to the materials and to the essence of the sculpture you can’t go wrong.
Admittedly some forms have different requirements of the materials. Let’s face it, if you are aiming to create a bust of “Joan of Arc” then working with bricks, sponge and wire mesh is not the way to go – unless you intend to create a rather large abstracted piece.
When visiting with a friend while incarnated it is easy, normal, and natural for them to think of me as this human biological machine. Mostly that is what they see, hear, touch, smell, etc. Continue reading
In a recent online workshop as part of a larger topic, E.J. Gold mentioned that there are many different types of meditation. This should not have come as a surprise. When presented with the notion, it is obviously true. Of course there are many different types of meditation. Thing is, until this invisible elephant is brought to light it is all too easy to fall into the trap of treating all meditation as the same.
Well, of course they are not.
Different meditation forms can have different methods – obvious enough.
And, different meditation forms can have different goals and results – hmmm, now this is interesting to mull over once or twice.
Contrary to what this foreword may be suggesting, this article is not about the variety of meditation types. Nor is it about different possible goals and results.
I just thought it would be useful for the reader to be notified that not all meditation is the same and that, in fact, different forms of meditation can have quite different goals and aims.
This article will address one specific form of meditation – Cognitive Mindful Meditation. Continue reading
