William, allison, Sneh and all,
This is a particularly timely thread. I appreciate all those who contribute.
Angeles Arien's word come to mind:
Show up and choose to be present.
Pay attention to what has heart and meaning.
Speak the truth without blame or judgement.
Be open to outcome, not attached to outcome.
I look forward to seeing each of you along the path.
Be Well,
David Rupley, Jr.

Here is a quote from Adyashanti, which I think touches on this latest
thread of "knowing and intention."
OPENNESS
“When you are open, you do not filter your experience, nor do you
barricade yourself, you open to the mystery.
Openness has no particular location. It seems to be everywhere. It
has room for everything. There can be thought or no thought. There
can a feeling or no feeling. There can be sounds. There can be
silence. Nothing disturbs openness. We only get disturbed when we
close ourselves by identifying with a particular point of view; we go
into opposition of what is happening. With openness, we find that
we’re actually not in opposition to anything. Whatever is happening
in the openness is perfectly okay, and so we are able to respond to
life in a spontaneous and wise way. “
Of course I tend to go right to Buffalo Springfield:
"There's something happening here.
What it is ain't exactly clear."
All the best,
Bill Mannle
