Training the MIND...


At the beginning of every winter people are careful to install storm windows. These extra panes of glass protect their houses against the bitter winds. We do something very similar to protect our minds through the practice of meditation. ~Eknath Easwaran

In meditation, you are calm and receptive. You are like an open door providing a kind of cross ventilation so that the air of divinity can move through you. ~Gurudev Shree Chitrabhanu


[M]editation stills the wandering mind and establishes us forever in a state of peace. ~Muktananda

Thanksgiving~


"I certify to you that, with the help of God, we shall powerfully enter into your country and shall make war against you in all ways and manners that we can, and shall subject you to the yoke and obedience of the Church and of Their Highnesses. We shall take you and your wives and your children, and shall make slaves of them, and as such shall sell and dispose of them as Their Highnesses may command. And we shall take your goods, and shall do you all the mischief and damage that we can, as to vassals who do not obey and refuse to receive their lord and resist and contradict him."


The statement Spaniards were required to read to Indians they encountered in the New World, to which the natives cannot understand because of language barrier.


"I'll show you everything, when your ready."

From the diary of the commander in charge of the massacre..

"Down fell men, women, and children. Those that 'scaped us, fell into the hands of the Indians that were in the rear of us. Not above five of them 'scaped out of our hands. Our Indians came us and greatly admired the manner of Englishmen's fight, but cried "Mach it, mach it!" - that is, "It is naught, it is naught, because it is too furious, and slays too many men." Great and doleful was the bloody sight to the view of young soldiers that never had been in war, to see so many souls lie gasping on the ground, so thick, in some places, that you could hardly pass along.

The massacre at Mystic is over in less than an hour. The battle cuts the heart from the Pequot people and scatters them across what is now southern New England, Long Island, and Upstate New York. Over the next few months, remaining resistors are either tracked down and killed or enslaved. The name "Pequot" is outlawed by the English. The Puritan justification for the action is simply stated by Captain Underhill:

It may be demanded, Why should you be so furious? Should not Christians have more mercy and compassion? Sometimes the Scripture declareth women and children must perish with their parents. Sometimes the case alters, but we will not dispute it now. We had sufficient light from the word of God for our proceedings."


King Henry the 8th passed "his version" along to King James! Something to think about. It is wide open for everyone who will take the time to read it.

Thanksgiving...for me...Remembering their blood that was spilled, and honoring the lesson behind it all so that we don't ever repeat it again. That we move forward in unity and peace...as they were...before the darkness took them from us.

They are still very much with us...still teaching. We only need to realize we are not alone.

READY? yep... It's hard to fathom, that all that one believes to be true...for years, can be torn apart in 10 minutes. What is left? Only LOVE...above the DOGMA and LIES....Love is still alive!

Drunk on You


I have eaten too much today...and after dinner the family drags out the weight scale....I did not need to do that! But I did....Back to running soon. Ha!


I loved being with my family, you know you get to a certain age and you appreciate just being together and watching the kids play, so thankful for being able to do that.


This is my other favorite tune of the week:

You know why I think this guy is so special, I went to one of his concerts. He is just himself, He has fun and it shows. I think fun rubs off on the audience. If you ever get the opportunity to see him live, its so much fun.
