2018.04.02 - Day 19

Quiet day at the ranch? :)

Was a lovely day in Amsterdam, with the group gathering together most of the day. The city itself is wonderful of course. The real joy is gazing into faces.

Was special to observe with Wester, the 99 Days practice she began here (she is driving home now so I'm not sure if she will get to check in here tonight), and to have impromptu sessions here and there.

Musing together on a variation of the theme for upcoming parties - PaB then and now. Early day conversation straight to Being.

Am struck once again by how precious our multi-leveled meetings are.

Although I meditated in the morning before gatherings today, I have to admit to entirely forgetting '3 breaths' the rest of the time! edited 20:30, 2 Apr 2018

In the pursuit of learning, every day something is acquired.
In the pursuit of the Way, every day something is dropped.

Less and less is done
Until non-action is achieved.
When nothing is done, nothing is left undone.

The world is ruled by letting things take their course.
It cannot be ruled by interfering.

A very lovely day in Amsterdam indeed. I enjoyed getting a chance to meet so many of you and to share the food meditation.

Sitting in a sunny neighborhood cafe in the middle of my long walk, I'm reminded the "neighborhood cafe" that PaB has been throughout the years. Feeling so grateful :) edited 01:17, 3 Apr 2018
