Hello, everybody. It is my sad duty to tell you that John Ames has died. He was my friend, my student, my editor, and a close confidant. I will miss him sorely, as will many of you living all around the world. John worked tirelessly and selflessly – at no charge – to improve and […]
Notice that the chimp’s excited movements have absolutely no effect whatsoever on its virtual environment. Does this remind you of anything? Thanks to Beau.
This kind woman had a spiritual awakening in 1979 following a personal tragedy. The belief that she’s “lost her awakening” moved in and stayed in place for the next 37 years-all the way to yesterday. 🙂 I’ll be working with her son in February. F Hi Fred! Just wanted you to share with you […]
“When the heart weeps for what it has lost, the soul laughs for what it has found.” Thanks to Kathleen.
“Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in. I drink at it; but while I drink I see the sandy bottom and detect how shallow it is. Its thin current slides away, but eternity remains.” “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For” Walden Henry David Thoreau Thanks to Beau.
Dogen Thanks to Daniel.

Hey Fred, Satsang was quite potent yesterday, to say the least. I wanted to share an experience (if you can call it that), and maybe elicit some reflections from you. It’s interesting — when I attempt to describe it, I hit a wall. It was such a non-experience — a powerful non-experience, paradoxically — that […]

Just a quick note to tell you that it dawned on me that I have to know further in advance how many will be attending the New Year’s Day Awakening Gathering. I may have to make adjustments to my Zoom account, which has to be done on a weekday well in advance of the session. Nothing […]
Many of you will remember an earlier post that showcased some art by my friend Bob Turano, in Los Angeles. Here are four more that he sent me yesterday. Bob is an awakening being, and you can reach him at turanobob@gmail.com.
I noticed these new YouTube comments yesterday: I enjoyed your lecture big time. Made me think, until I stopped thinking about it. I realize that I have been experiencing this idea all along. The only thing I did wrong was think about it too much. Authors were writing about it as if they were teaching […]

Fred: Sitting looking at the Awakening Clarity Now website this morning – I see how skillfully the website is laid out, and what wonderful information it provides. This is a tricky game.

The post-awakening clearing process – provided there is one, which we can never assume – is built around our ability and willingness to remain alert to this present arising. In the Old Testament story of the Exodus, the fleeing Hebrew hordes received their bread, their “manna from heaven” strictly on a day-to-day basis. There was no […]
