    General Update on my wife and subsequent advice

    The impact of her condition on family was very serious. A potential physical cause was very serious. All it took to identify or eliminate such a cause was a 1/2 hour test.

    General Meditation as an aid

    Breath Breath figures in most meditation practices. Zazen is notable in that breath is never controlled. We breath naturally. However, observation of breath is a method within Zen Buddhism. Its crudest form, repetitive counting of the breath up to say 10, is used as an introductory method for...

    General Meditation as an aid

    There is a catch Zazen practice is simple. One just sits in a certain posture for a given period of time every day. Doing nothing for 40 minutes each day can’t be hard. But it is. Doing it every day requires dedicated discipline and planning. There is something about our modern rapid life-style...

    Hi I have never tried this before. Aside from confiding in some doctors and giving some details to family I have never told my full story. It would take some time. I have been married for 4 years to a lovely little lady who I love dearly. During our courtship I saw glimpses of what was to come...
