Mindfuling is appreciating each moment, in particular ways. A training, a practice. Remembering can be a practice too, and remembering with a soundtrack about the soundtrack! Well that can get complicated, you can get lost in music. Oblivion? Hmmm a little bit of that will happen but you don't have to get lost for long. Just come back. RIP, now.

Halloween in the West is a candy festival but there is a profoundly human reflection plainly available right below the sugar coating surface of what the holiday can remind us of and the five remembrances of the so called Buddhist world can further illuminate what the confectioners glaze may be obscuring. Gonna get sick, gonna age, gonna die, everything dissolves and separates and oh ya, what you do is what you own.

On location under a venerable 100plus year old Oak. Acorns dropping. Dogs cavorting and tasting. Sitting under these conditions. Powerful. Simple. Cross legged, make sure upright and balanced — comfortable. Don't sit with the knees afloat, sit supported on the ground at the base of tree.
