RE: The Monetary Paradox: EPA Wants China to Sell Bee-Killing Pesticide for 165 Mil Acres of US Farmland
This is especially depressing given that we have already been warned of "mysterious" die-offs of bees in the last decade or so, leading many to quote Einstein (I think) that said, “If the bee

RE: Warning Signs It’s Time to Break Up
Good advice. I have had to cut myself off from a number of members of my own family for just these reasons. That is very hard to do, but it had to be done. Siblings of mine who continued to allow these

RE: An ode to the magic of humanity
When I was a teen, a teacher who had become something of a mentor to me turned me on to the Carlos Castaneda books. They had the same effect on me, opening my eyes to the magic of the world. Although many

RE: 7 must watch consciousness expanding documentaries
Good list. I have jotted down the ones I haven't seen yet. I think the most eye-opening documentary I saw recently was on the life of Vivian Maier, an astoundingly talented photographer who filled whole

RE: Zen koan of the day - The Most Valuable Thing in the World

RE: My heart is like a temple:an original poem.
The world would be so much better off if more people would learn to operate from the heart. The intellect can easily fool itself (and others), but the heart is too simple and pure to be fooled.

RE: Veggie Dayz
I have a similar view of diet. I have been mostly veg for decades but still eat fish and dairy so don't technically qualify for any official labels. My food choices are largely based on being opposed to

RE: WARNING! Do Not Go To The Doctor
To me the greatest motivator to NOT go to a doctor in this country is that the system runs on the profit motive. And that means that $$$ is a major reason why people go into medicine. I would rather be

RE: Sitting With Fear
It has been said that a person's death sits just out of sight, slightly behind the left shoulder. Whenever we consider a course of action and fear grips us, we need only turn to the left and ask our death

As I get a bit older, my hair has become much drier than it used to be. I have recently begun using a mixture of coconut oil, shea butter, and a few drops of argon oil as a hair conditioner. I take the

Love is a very special cup: the more we spill it over the world, the more full it becomes. Thanks for the imagery.

This story reminds me of the background story line to the old David Carradine "Kung Fu" series (which I absolutely adored). In an early scene, Kwai Chang Caine's teacher Master Po is talking

Well said. Our judicial system could probably eliminate 10 laws for each new law without fear of oversimplifying ;) Of course, the same can be said of the "rules" by which we encumber our own

RE: Zen koan of the day - Flower Shower
I've heard it said that inner silence is not simply the absence of thoughts. Rather it is a positive (but ineffable) state that puts you in touch with something that was always there but never noticed.

RE: Who Will Take Care of My Kitty When I’m Gone? 😔
My cat Balam (Mayan for "jaguar") lived about 17 years. She lived free to come and go as she pleased in a rural area and was a great huntress and explorer. We took her camping, too, as she knew
