"everything you write is always part of the Guide" .... it seems i have encountered metaphysics at its deepest level.

i have no idea if this will be my only journal entry.... being, as i am, a past master at beginnigs...but i am not planning anything.

most probably no-one much will read it anyway.... and so my inability to maintain a simple dicsipline will in all probability remain unknown....

i remember 1978..... 1978 was the year that i promised myself that i would rise early every morning before 6o'clock and meditate.....i would record my thoughts in a diary...thus the year would form a focal point in my life.... a touchstone .... somewhere to revisit when the ice of circumstance had frozen the pulses of my heart....of course i have long since lost the diary....

but i do remember that often i rose... not at 6o'clock ot even at 7.... but later, much later.....rushing to work and meditating not a moment .... and yet, for some reason that may well highlight my innermost and most compelling weakness.... i would stop to write the morning's excuse in the diary .... "hard night, baby cried, slept in, sore head, no meditating today" ..... excuses to my soul ..... for no one else could give a damn....

indeed ..... everything you write is always part of the Guide
