A lot of why’s are answered here… why you can’t get well, why you are not happy, etc.
People are the highest value in the universe. Why? Because they are able to be all levels of values, the thinking mind (systemic), the extrinsic (create tools, cook food, provide pleasure), and the intrinsic.
You live, predominantly on one level, and value what is on that level most.
Depending on how closely your valuation matches the valuation that is “godly”, or the Original Design, you fulfill the purpose of being human.
It’s my 45th anniversary that I graduated from architecture school. I am old…
It put me into a walk-down memory lane mood, and I revisited some events in my life I haven’t remembered in decades.
For example the only person I ever saw as compatible, left after a few weeks, without saying good bye.
I could grieve it, but I think it was fortunate. I loved him too much…
When you love someone or something too much, you put your own self interest on hold, and become a slave to that person or thing…
In hindsight this is why I was so disproportionately captivated and mortified by a “Criminal Minds” episode, where the wo

In this series of Osho talks he examines stories from different ancient cultures. This is an excellent companion to what I teach. Enjoy!

Trace minerals… what do you need to know
I have been doing these 90 essential nutrient evaluations for about a month now.
Yesterday I had some time and tested a few people I know, clients, readers, friends, and emailed them my findings… at least the numbers.
I sent an email to one of my clients, and she wrote back arguing. I had a typo in the email… by mistake I wrote that she had 90 of the 90 essentials missing… obvious typo.
But yet, there is a question that she didn’t ask, and I want to ask it for he
Updated: A Time To Give Thanks. But To Who? For What? Mundane Or Significant? Habit And Duty Or Privilege?
I wrote this article five years ago. Sometimes the way to get ahead is to go back five years and start from there.
Recently the readership of this blog has changed, not to my liking. I’d like to return to how it was five years ago, when people with sincere desire to change visited, and asked for help.
OK, here is the old article… hopefully all typos are corrected.
Thanksgiving: a time to give thanks. But to who? For What? Mundane or Significant? Habit and Duty or Privilege?
In searching what I am really thankful for, I went through all the things I could be thankful for.

Updated: So you want to feel special… how is it going for you?
So you want to feel special?
We are all special, if special means, as special as our thumbprint… But that is not special enough for you, is it?
You want to be SPECIAL… so you can be treated special… a special talent, outstanding, mind boggling, awesome, the best.
In this article I will shed light to an important phenomenon that we are all experiencing… the ITCH, that keeps us miserable, and the HORIZON that keeps us on track, sane, happy and always well.
Some people never have anything to say and they talk all the time. Others think that they have to first formulate it in their heads to say it, and it never comes together. Professional thinkers, writers know that “it is hard to be silently brilliant. Lots of thoughts occur wen you open your mouth.” Thinking is a lot like digging for gold. Someone or something has to hold the dirt, or you can’t get beneath it. You’ll be on both sides… by the way. But if you are one of my students, you will feel that you have something to teach your family: and no one will be interested. Get prepared! In fact they will try to discourage you from continuing to pursue what you pursue when you spend time with me or my writing. I’ve been teaching the Original Design for five years. None of the original participants, that were my friends, are around, except one… barely. I have been going through he You make lots of decisions… which card to move, which card to leave alone. In a very short time when you find yourself with no cards to move… it is mighty hard to retrace your steps. And even if you could, undoing the steps “(SELF-)CULTIVATION TAKES AN UNIMAGINABLE TIME (WHILE) ENLIGHTENMENT IN AN INSTANT IS ATTAINED.” IF THE TRAINING IS EFFICIENT, ENLIGHTENMENT WILL BE ATTAINED IN ONE FINGERSNAP. IN DAYS GONE BY CH’AN MASTER HUI CHUEH OF LANG YEH MOUNTAIN, HAD A DISCIPLE WHO CALLED ON HIM FOR INSTRUCTION. THE MASTER TAUGHT HER TO EXAMINE INTO THE SENTENCE: “TAKE NO NOTICE.” SHE FOLLOWED HIS INSTRUCTION STRICTLY WITHOUT BACKSLIDING. ONE DAY HER HOUSE CAUGHT FIRE, BUT SHE SAID: “TAKE NO NOTICE.” ANOTHER DAY, HER SON FELL INTO THE WATER AND WHEN A BYSTANDER CALLED HER, SHE
It’s hard to be silently brilliant. Lots of thoughts occur when you open your mouth.
Some days I have nothing to say. It doesn’t feel like there is anything to say that needs to be said.

Passover and Easter around, you’ll spend time with family. You’ll see examples of “No One Is A Prophet In Their Own Land.” Learning and growing through simulation
