August 20, 2010 - In my experience questing for understanding of spiritual aspects of the human community, I have had occasion to encounter some unusual synchronicities. One such event emerged while perusing a lecture by noted Initiate and spiritual scientist, Rudolf Steiner. 
Marcus Aurelius asked “What am I doing with my soul?” He suggests we interrogate ourselves to find out what inhabits our “so-called” mind and what kind of soul we have right now; that of a child, an adolescent, a predator orits prey? 
August – 20, 2010 - Lucid Dreaming is Conscious Dreaming and is the ability of awareness that you are dreaming. In a nutshell, you are aware that all the occurrences you are experiencing are actually within a dream, while you are dreaming. 
August 20. 2010 - I've been getting a lot of emails to join prayer groups for the healing of the oceans, the forests, the earth; and just when it seems to me that people are starting to actually wake up, I get other emails that say 'the gods are angry', 'the earth is angry', 'these catastrophes are happening in areas where people have been evil for too long and god is teaching a lesson'. They reek of judgment, fear, and projection.

March 11, 2010 - Why I Am a Buddhist: No-Nonsense Buddhism with Red Meat and Whiskey" by Stephen T. Asma is an entertaining and interesting look at the author's journey into the practice of Buddhism that sheds light on much of what the practice can offer. It's definitely not like most Buddhism books you'll find on the shelf. At times, those more familiar with traditional texts will scratch their heads and ponder, "Did he really just say that?" And that's one of the things I really liked about this book. It offers a realistic approach, because it is the approach taken by Asma. It's worked for him, and you may just find that it is okay to practice as you seem fit, not as others tell you, and it can work for you.
