The Most Valuable Possesion

A caution on the stories we tell...

Arguably that which is most valued by human beings is... our STORIES. day and night we tell and retell stories, to ourselves and all who will listen. We live for our stories, from and within them. And arguably, we are possessed by them. We stream them with eyes open and eyes shut. We gather in groups to exchange them and celebrate them in books, radio, news print and on the stage. Our religion is story, our science too. Our identity is hi-story, stories repeated and our dreams are fragments of story as yet to unfold. Our stories are made of experience, judgement and belief systems, which may rarely be subject to our examination. They are the smoke screen of our delusional identity, valued above reason even if through logic they are invoked and our morality likewise is subject to their conditioned whim. We may even think that we are not, if we have no story to prove that we are. We are sucked and suckered into them for we identify with the flawed story teller - ego, monkey mind, or unnamed protagonist, ti's but a further fiction within the story line itself. Stories become the carriers of our bondage to viral emotions and the justification for our actions repeated generation to generation and yes at times they may be a door to inspiration for a few heroes who get the joke and can laugh them off. But mostly in our story telling and story sharing we are needing to be comforted that we share the same archetypes and thus are somehow OK, even if addicted to and driven by the recurring drama and trance of pathos. Yet to go beyond the norm of the acceptable human, we must dismantle our stories, challenge them for accuracy, drain them of reactivity and often for the best, abandon them all together to find what is real and healing - to find ourselves and our place in the grand design.

Special Offer

(Written partially "tongue in cheek.")

As many of you know I do not charge for coaching services, but I am trying a new marketing strategy of assigning value, as freebies I am told are not viewed as having worth.  So here it is… a $24.99 value for FREE to the readers of my blog. All I ask is that you make a donation of FREELY sharing it with others that might benefit – and do so in my name or in reference to this blog.

Just as a single drop of coloring mixes with a glass of water to pigment the whole volume, so too may a single “drop” (energy) of wellness revitalize and renew the heath of body, mind or circumstance. Like in homeopathic theory, a substance diluted to where only the information signature remains, it may still facilitate a cure.

The word “drop” here is used figuratively yet may also be understood as a Tibetan metaphor for prana - the life force.  So one can utilize the idea of the drop literally, or understand it as an energy form and metaphor. Experiment and use the metaphor in a group healing environment as an image to align intention.

This approach can help many circumvent the failure of trying to do too much, and more easily allows the focus to remain positive as attention is on the drop primarily and its environment or damaged  condition only secondarily.

Consider that if but a single healthy cell or pattern remains, there is enough information to begin a transformation of the whole system, for the intention of life is toward its own perfection and life is most tenacious in overcoming obstacles if given a chance by our cooperation with it.


The drop understood as a thought form of pure information can mean at any given moment, simply the best understanding of a perfected state and the felt meaning of that state. How big a drop can you allow? Cut that in half and begin there.


One’s intention here is itself only information in the form of a thought, and as it is so often said; energy follows intent – and that in accord with its own wisdom. Transformation is allowed to occur in its own time and with less effort. A simple curiosity affords more results than willfulness.

So let the idea of the drop form… stir it in, shake it up.  If the condition being addressed feel solid, knead it, push and pull on it gently with the mind and mimic the motions with the hands and body if you like. Mix it well and then sit back and let it work.

Just make sure the drop is rich with euphoric (wellness) feelings and the shift toward wellness is assured.  All by itself, through practice, the drop will evolve into a fine rain, a trickle, a stream an ocean, as one works the process described here. Let it, allow it to happen all by itself.

This applies to blessing others as well. Never underestimate the casual good wishes extended to another, especially if the intention includes the instruction that the drop persist and gather like energies unto its self.

This could become an empowering habit for how you think about troubling things.

PS This "drop sadhana" is but stage one of a larger connected teaching. This is offered here as a simple reframe of how we may view and work with intention, energy and information in a way most can easily  understand and put to immediate use.

Focus on the "mixing" of the "drops" and other insights should follow.  The best learning is what we discover for ourselves.

De Profundus

In light of the fact that all concepts have limitations, it is said: “Those who speak do not know. Those who know do not speak.” Yet we speak to serve and the service is judged not by an absolute standard but by its usefulness. To devise more useful constructs we must often think outside the box. There are usually more workable solutions than what we have been given to believe, even if they are sometimes counter intuitive.

 "Eternity is in love with time"
   -William Blake. 

To say with Paramahansa Yogananda, that all time is happening now, is to say that all possibilities are available now, that eternity dwells in the spaces between our thoughts of yesterday and tomorrow. This includes what Physicists called the Multiple Histories Interpretation. There is only here as well as now and nothing outside of mind exists independently of this - "this" however in apearance is a collective work of creation, which means I cannot do what is lawfully beyond the agreement of the collective. However if one can exceed the limits of the mean, then so can others follow in the temporal stream. Such is the game we play as One, for no other reason than we can, worlds without end. 

Q: Is this a school with lessons to be learned?

A: There is naught to learn, only potentials to explore. 

Q: Does "an eye for an eye" - repayment in kind - express accurately the idea of karma?

A: Karma is about the mood of anger and attitude of vengeance which underlies the act. It is about our emotional triggers that have not been released. This we carry forward beyond the grave and into the collective ancestral pool. Karma can be mitigated to a degree as our emotional streams are purified.

Q: Is there such a thing as reincarnation?

A: There are only changes of state and the borrowings of ancestral memories, creatively utilized and recycled in new combinations and unforeseen connections called inspiration. 

Q: What is death?

A: A device invented to facilitate and encourage rapid evolution, much like sexual diversity accelerates the creation of genetic adaptations.
