I am humbled by all the souls willing to help. Thank you friends.

Zero Circle
by Rumi
English version by Coleman Barks

Be helpless, dumbfounded,
Unable to say yes or no.
Then a stretcher will come from grace
to gather us up.

So let us rather not be sure of anything,
Beside ourselves, so
Miraculous beings come running to help.
Crazed, lying in a zero circle, mute,
We shall be saying finally,
With tremendous eloquence, Lead us.
When we have totally surrendered to that beauty,
We shall be a mighty kindness.

I am preparing for open heart surgery, to have three heart valves and an aortic aneurysm repaired. I am in excellent mental space and I am ready for a remarkable outcome. Can you help, with any amount, toward medical expenses?

Ask yourself: "How much of my thinking and daily conversations concern the things in the rearview mirror?"

All remembered things are acts of imagination. Every time we rethink something from the past is a present act of creation. Everything in the rearview mirror is distorted by our filters, our preferences, our traumas. The rear windshield is almost always dirty, unless you just came from the car wash. The glass is curved and tinted, polarized and with UV filters.

You know the expression "That's a first world problem," that you might say now and then to remind yourself that whatever you are currently worried about is not such a big deal?

Now you can add "Rearview mirror!"

Over 30 years ago, my old guru wrote a "prayer to the body." Since then, countless others have written this same poem. This verse works, if you can read it in a heartfelt way. Here is today's version.

Juliet asks:
“How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath
To say to me that thou art out of breath?”
~ Romeo and Juliet, Act 2 Scene 5

The simple answer to Juliet’s famous question is “expiratory reserve volume.”

Juliet’s poor nurse, like many people, lives her life in the tidal volume of her breath and when challenged uses her expiratory reserve volume. Most likely, if she is a Shakespearean nurse, she has a slumping posture, a droopy heart and a collapsed rib cage. She gets through life with a small breath.

A Hindu saint who was visiting river Ganges to take bath found a group of family members on the banks, shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his disciples smiled and asked.
"Why do people shout in anger shout at each other?"

Disciples thought for a while and one of them said, "Because we lose our calm, we shout."

"But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner" asked the saint.

Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the other disciples.Finally the saint explained, "When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance."

"What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small."

The saint continued, "When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper 'n they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other 'n that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other."
He looked at his disciples and said,
"So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return."
