The entire human race is but a couple of breaths away from extinction.
What an awesome focus.

Re: Zen Mind, Beginners Mind

even these thoughts have a physical basis so not knowing I can believe in no extinction of it. that is whatever it is. its easy to accept the good times the test of your practice is accepting the bad times. beginners mind is all I have sometimes.

Hi Zak,

We don't know...You could be right. You could be wrong.
Whatever, now, and now, you and I do our best, that's the way forward. Statistics, propheties, numbers, talks...Shall we leave them behind...Just be. No judgement involved.
Zak, no need to be afraid. Afraid of what? No need to be over optimistic.

do you read me?...

You got it. The realistic take.

Meanwhile, shall we love, embrace, sit and expand?...

Zak, all is well, and yet, every inch we can claim, every battle we can fight is...just what it is...

it doesn't mean we have lost it.

Your sitting and words are but flowers.

More important than statistics...


take care
