" WHY ARE You
SO UNHAPPY ? "
...........................
Because 99.9 per cent
of Everything you think,
and of Everything you do,
is for yourSelf –-
and There Isn't One"

~ Wei Wu Wei ~
-------------------------

"FORGIVING ALL
OUR FATHERS" --
Buddha was No Patriarch
He was an Early Feminist
------------------------------

MINDFULNESS
is ” Mind-FULLY "
Living Your Mind
Fully Present --
in The Present
------------------

"FORGIVING
OUR FATHERS --
Who Didn't Forgive
His Father - Because
He Didn't Forgive
His Father - And
Who Didn't Forgive
His Father...
-------------------------

But- Did WE Have
'GOOD ENOUGH
FATHERING' ? ? ?
--------------------------

We've ALL had to have
biological Fathers, or
else we just wouldn't
be here: Question Is ?
Did we actually have
ONLY GOOD ENOUGH
PARENTING
FATHERING ?
-------------------------------------
ONLY JUST 'WHAT IS' --
GOOD ENOUGH - Accept
---------------------------------
ONLY"GOOD ENOUGH
FATHERING" --
"GOOD ENOUGH
MOTHERING" --
"GOOD ENOUGH
FAMILIES" --
"GOOD ENOUGH
MEDITATIONS ?"
"GOOD ENOUGH
ANYTHING"? --
But Not Great

Actually, 'Good Enough'
Can Be a Better Bet than
PERFECT -- Voltaire said:
"Do Not Make Perfection
the Enemy of The Good".
-------------------------------

How's About
JUST "GOOD ENOUGH
MEDITATIONS" - they
can be easy going, so give
u Judging-mind a break...

Silent Meditation offers
the very necessary deeper
"immersion-time
experiences" so often
missing in shorter
daily meditations..

You gradually build-in
a Consistent, Ongoing
"Working-Relationship"
with meditation practice
itself- becoming Friends

So you can strengthen,
cultivate and stabilize
an aware, sweet, street
wise, Dharma-informed
intellect, a peaceful
body-stillness, and
a compassionate,
calm equilibrium and
emotional renewal,
in a supportive space --

To continually Re-awaken
Yourself to being present:
"Present in THIS moment"
Be Silent - Allow a gentle
Inner Sanctuary of simple
sustained mindfulness
and deeper inner-inquiry.
-----------------------------------
Good Enough Forgiveness
Meditations CAN work for
us, our Fathers, our Family,
Mates can be Numberless -
with Self Compassion for
One's Self given necessary
Attentive support FIRST
-- For many of us this could
be the first, SANE, positive
beginning, and as ongoing
deep inner work - to give
ourselves adequate time
to practice Forgiveness
techniques on our own
at home....
-------------------
INSTRUCTION

of 5 min. - then go to a sit

or just in memory.

FORGIVENESS
has been around...
FORGIVENESS
is aged, sagely
and wise.

"Forgiveness is giving up
all hope for a better past.
There is no future
without forgiveness."
~ Desmond Tutu
-----------------------
"Forgiveness is Possible –
How we can start using
this timeless Forgiveness
practice to transform
emotional wounds into
an authentic healing,
a way out of our pain.
-----------------------------
As Compassion arises
More Naturally, we see
how Forgiveness can
be practiced as a 'Gift'
we give -not only to others,
but ultimately to ourselves.
-------------------------------
Forgiveness has the
Awesome Power to
ripen forces of purity
such as Love.
-----------------------
Forgiveness creates the
space for a Life-Renewal,
--- a life now free from
bondage to the past.
--------------------------
Forgiveness dissolves
separation, relieves us
of the twin burdens of
lacerating guilt and
perpetually unresolved
outrage or numbing...

It is not so easy to access
that hurt-place inside of us
that can truly forgive,
that can love again.

Remember, it is much
more difficult to forgive,
than NOT to forgive !

We are held prisoner
by the 'resentment',
the pain, the shame,
the anger, confusion,
doubt, overwhelming
sense of betrayal --
our present life just
cannot be fully lived.

Unwelcome Inheritances
we carry in from the past--
functions to close my heart
thereby narrows my world.
Yet 'Forgiveness' does not
mean condoning a harmful
action, or denying an
injustice done.

Forgiveness should never
be confused with being
passive toward violation
or abuse.
-----------------------------
"The CORE-intention
of true 'Forgiveness’
arises directly out of
the Greatest of Practices -
Compassion for Ourselves
– so that we can create
the spacious, wide open ,
contributing conditions
for an unobstructed love."
~ JackKornfield / Akasa Levi
---------------------------------

Forgive
and be free.
Forget that
you have forgiven --
and be even freer !

~ The Buddha
----------------------

A cultivatable ‘capacity’
for Forgiveness needs
to be available in order
for us to truly Love.
And there's certainly
an endless abundance
of authentic every-day
‘Practice Opportunities’
when ‘working’ on real
Forgiveness that Forgives
----------------------------------

"A Change of Heart
Changes Everything"

~Lucado
-----------------------

Tightly Holding

onto Resentment is

letting someone else
punish us.

-----------------------------

The “Act of Forgiveness”
is an act of
mercy to yourself !"

---------------------------

Why are you so Unhappy ?
Because 99.9 per cent
of everything you think,
and of everything you do,
is for yourSelf –
and there isn't one.
~ Wei Wu Wei ~
----------------------

" Buddhist practice literally
has 'Nothing' to offer you –
other than WHAT IS HERE
in THIS very moment.
That’s all. 'Accompli'
God(s), Goddesses,
religion, entities
and the ego-self
can certainly
attract you with so,
so, so much more! "

~ Henri Van Zeyst

Remember ~
Whatever 'IT' is –
IT's just a “Thought”

Love exists only
in the True Friendship
Love is True Friendship
set on Fire !
~ Jeremy Taylor - 1657 ~
------------------------------

Wisdom-Dharma guides us
in the practical necessity
of creating our uniquely,
clearly spoken relationship
'The Language of Kindness
and Skillful Actions' arising
from a Compassionate ---
and yet - a Complete-view
of 'What Is' --and How to
do this in a warm, natural,
flexible yet uncontrived,
uncompromised way?
---------------------------

The Way You Do
One Thing --
is more than likely
The Way You Do
Everything !
------------------
How do we DO a Thing ?
"Do" Relationship in Life ?
-- with a Satisfied feeling of
Good integrity, while at the
same time do a Buddhist
Practice of cultivating an
Awakened Non-Attachment
---------------------------------

"NON-ATTACHMENT"
The BUDDHIST IDEAL
Absence of 'Attachment'
is NOT necessarily at all --
in any way whatsoever the

the absence of a profound,
profound Loving."

The Most common
Attachment-Mistake
in creating one's own
personal suffering
is to take the
Impermanent
for Permanent."

~ Buddha

Did I Know Yet,
At Any Time ---
That IT is ALL
Just a Made Up 'Story'
--- Made Up ---
in Someone's Herd
Just Like My Father
Told Me It Was --
When I was Seven 7.
--------------------------

Rilke's -- "LOVE THE QUESTIONS INSTEAD--. Dicken's "BEST of TIMES, WORST of TIMES"

♦ " Be Patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the 'Questions' Themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a foreign language. Do not, just right now, seek for the Answers.

The 'Answers' which cannot now be given to you - because you would not be able to actually ‘Live’ them.

And the point is to ‘Live’ everything - experiencing everything.

At present, you need to Live the Questions Themselves. Perhaps you will then gradually, without even noticing it, live along some day into the True Answer."....
