Yes. Len prompted me for clarification on that: > Just one remark, Bill. > We must be careful not to make indifference to a goal. > When some very painful stuff comes up, it's initilly impossible to be > indifferent. And trying to be indiffrent anyway may lead to > suppression of what is coming up. > > Len > good point Len I mean " indifferent " as *descriptive*, not as *prescriptive*, which is a huge distinction. What I meant when I said " complete indifference " is a point where there is no resistance to " painful stuff " should it come up. Probably a better phrase is " inconditional attention " , which really means the same thing. > Lately, I corrolate <being in the now> more and more > with the sense of I amness that Niz calls our > attention to: > I AM is also the Now : > or an open window toward.... > what is and won`t be known. > One doesn`t crawl thru that window, > But invites. > > Patricia that's beautiful and a good reminder to me that Now is so organically unique for each individual.
