The country you seek is called Heaven. I don't blame you for recognising the need - I'm the same. Sadly many of our companions would rather see themselves in charge, just to make sure everyone is treated justly of course, but that

In New Zealand we seem to find that our 2 languages, English and Te Reo Maori, each have their uses. English is good for lots of stuff but Te Reo is where we find our connection to the land. A few learn Sanskrit, which is said to be the lan

Ancient humans are thought by some researchers to have done much the same. The deep underground artworks in some French caves are said to be evidence of humans escaping the cold. There's a reason I can think of that it might not work s

I discovered a way to avoid the pain by withdrawing my attention from part of my gut. I've been doing that for more than 50 years. I still get the auras, and I tried going back to paying attention in the difficult part of my gut as an

I always wanted to be able to teach what I'm learning, so from the beginning of learning about a new topic is try and rephrase the information I receive and place it within the world I already understand. It's not so easy, but aft

I cannot believe that alertness comes out of a coffee cup. I like coffee too, but drugs are unreliable attention modulators, compared to good food, plenty of rest, and a worthwhile goal.

I dream of discovering such a resonant and cogent truth that, like a seed crystal in a prepared solution, it gathers more and more truth about it... Failing that great ideal, my words must stand for themselves, at least.

What about a humble letter, uncomplainingly explaining your situation, asking for help. If this is refused (unlikely if I were to write such a letter) you might see if the professional association would be help. Either way you'll have

My youngest brother built himself a special suicide shotgun after hours at work. That was 30 years ago. You might as well understand that the reason lots of people in your life didn't go the same way us because they didn't want to
