Images of Essence: The Standing Now is a contemplative meditation in words and pictures, conveying an achingly beautiful reminder of our quest for light, love, truth, and being. Its harmony of sight and sound remind us of our true home. Each photo by Nostalgia West photographer Bob Fergeson and accompanying poem by mystic poet Shawn Nevins builds a crescendo of introspective silence ... one at a time, leading us beyond time.
      Dr. Ron Masa, founder of The University of Yourself, says: "It's like Rumi with a Nikon." See The Mystic Missal site for a video trailer, sample pages and ordering. A beautiful present for yourself, a loved one, a friend.

Which game am I playing?

I was going through the table in deRopp's Master Game that listed the possible games.
Which game am I playing? I've teamed up with a lovely lady to maintain a home and raise kids. So am I a Householder? Or am I just showing up? What difference does it make if I were (especially since I claim to be playing the Master Game)? It certainly seems that I've been lulled into a sense that I am doing things that make me "more prone to understanding", but right now it seems that it's just wishful thinking combined with collecting brownie points and banking on some future event to happen. I'm just tired of it right now. And I won't be tired of it later. So I am asked, why the negativity. Because of the recurring sense that I'm yanking my own chain.


Then, I take a step back and see how the negativity is just another preservation strategy. And we wonder why the rate of success in this thing we're in is like, what, 0.00001% or something.
