• Guides, Strands, and models

    Wednesday, September 21, 2022 5:35 a.m. Gentlemen, two things came up yesterday while Jane Peranteau and Jane Coleman and I were talking, and I’m hoping you will explore with me. Setting for maximum presence, receptivity, clarity, contributing. First, can you clarify the nature and relationship of Strands and Guidance. You straightened that out yourselves, in…

  • The 3D and non-3D: Herds and outliers, edited [from 1-7-2019]

      You live at a remove from the physical world, mentally. This won’t come as news to you. Even when you spend your time reading of, understanding, conceptualizing the world, you aren’t really participating in it the way other people do. It is difficult for me, participating in the world around me. Let’s say, it…

  • Indecision

    Friday, September 23, 2022 6:10 a.m. So, my friends, I sampled the audio file Bill Ebeltoft sent the link to, and sure enough it reminds me of a state of mind I don’t get to easily otherwise. Not the realer reality I visited once, but, let’s say, one story up from my normal dwelling place.…

  • Redefinitions (from July 2018)

    [This seems appropriate in light of recent material.] Saturday, July 7, 2018 5:40 a.m. A moment to describe what just happened, then back to the council room, I hope. I lay down with sleep mask on and assumed the eagle, flew up to the council room in a tree, shifted to human – or to…

  • Belief in life after death (Charles Sides post)

    Goofing off today. Let my friend Charles take up the slack. https://charlessides.wordpress.com  

  • Spirit Possession; bleed-through

    Sunday, September 25, 2022 10:20 a.m. Reading about possession in Mary’s unpublished manuscript, I’m led to think, “How can that be? It takes disconnection for granted. Maybe it is a new dominant Strand taking over? You see the difference an overall concept makes. Wat one concept leaves open as a possibility, another closes. More to…

  • Justifying your life (edited from May 5 and 6, 2019)

    I am not in the same state of calm focused concentration I was in when I returned from Egypt. Yesterday I got a nice section of my novel written, but in general, I feel I have been sloppy and undisciplined. More than that, wasting my life, still without a clue. How can this be? Yes,…

  • Truth, error, and us

    Tuesday, September 27, 2022 I have been re-reading our study of the Gospel of Thomas, beginning in May, 2019, and yesterday I was moved to say, “I’m finding it very interesting. In fact, it’s pretty impressive. Did all that come through my pen? I hope it is not all illusion and delusion.” But I also…

  • External and internal (from June 6, 2019)

    [For several weeks in 2019, we examined the Gospel of Thomas, saying by saying, and it produced remarkable insights. I am moved to shared this transcription today, don’t know why.] Thursday, June 6, 2019 12:30 a.m. Gentlemen, shall we discuss Saying 24? Saying 24. His disciples said to him: Show us the place you are,…

  • Closed systems and guidance (Saying 34 of Thomas, from 6-10-2019)

    Monday, June 10, 2019 4:30 a.m. Saying 34: Jesus said: If a blind person leads another blind person, both of them will fall into a ditch. I suppose there is more to this than the obvious point, that we should choose our guides carefully. The previous saying, about not hiding our light under a bushel,…
