• So far and no farther – the limits of communication

    I awoke this morning missing my communications with Rita and, earlier, with Papa Hemingway. (I would add, “and with myself,” except I talk to myself all the time.) I went back to read Rita’s last communication, and remembered that there had been a couple of paragraphs I hadn’t shared. I had awakened from a dream…

  • Bernie Sanders at the Vatican conference

    Bernie Sanders at the Vatican conference April 15, 2016 Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is speaking at the Vatican Friday, praising Pope Francis and denouncing income inequality. The Democratic presidential candidate, who is Jewish, announced last week that he would attend a conference on income inequality at the Vatican just days before the high-stakes New York…

  • John Wolf on the ego as scapegoat

    [I am very glad to see this course-correction. Too many people — especially New Age-influenced people — tend to blame the ego and deify the self, which I think is a serious misreading of the situtation.] A Short Lesson About Attitude by John Dorsey Wolf We might call this “R&R”, not the military term meaning…

  • Guidelines

    Had my usual good time, last night, talking to the current Guidelines class at The Monroe Institute. Since the program begins Saturday after supper, by Wednesday night the participants have a pretty good idea of the obstacles they have faced and those they still face, and everybody is in the mood to do some work…

  • Group pix

    The Accessing Inner Guidance program we just ran at The Monroe Institute over the weekend was great fun, very satisfying — at least for this guest trainer!  

  • Brief message from Rita

    Sunday, April 24,2016 [Morning, prior to the final morning of the weekend workshop on communicating with guidance.] F: Miss Rita, any advice for us? R: Do the work. Do it diligently but in the spirit of quiet enjoyment. Nothing grim about it. What you want is a continuing tinge or flavor to your life, not…

  • Rita — the drama and our internal lives

    Monday April 25, 2016 F: 5:30 a.m. So, Miss Rita, we have had our experience teaching guidance. Any comments? Do I get that you are ready – or, maybe, that I am ready – to start again? R: That is to be decided. You will notice that each pause in the flow changes the flavor…

  • Rita – living the 3D and non-3D

    Tuesday, April 26, 2016 F: 2:45 a.m. Well, Miss Rita, I suppose it is you wanting to talk. I don’t know why else I would wake up, misread the clock, start the coffee, and then find out that what I read as a 5 was actually a 2. What is on your mind? Or do…

  • John Wolf — AIG report

    A Report on Accessing Guidance Weekend Program by John Dorsey Wolf Over the weekend of April 22-24 I was fortunate to be able to attend the inaugural Accessing Inner Guidance program led by Frank and another talented trainer, Bob Holbrook, at The Monroe Institute (TMI). You can find a picture of our group on another…

  • Films, books, and psychometry

    This review pans the movie “Papa: Hemingway in Cuba” in no uncertain terms. Maybe he’s right. God knows, Hollybood puts out some God-awful trash. But I’m going to see it anyway, as soon as it comes around. I want to see what Papa thinks of it. All right, I’m smiling too — and yet…. Here…
