The World Of The Ten Thousand Things

Each moment you’re free to create the appearance of reality anew and Mondays are as good a time as any to do so. By choosing a different skin for your window on the world, a different prism through which to order the appearance of things, you cause the appearance of things to alter. When I mention appearances in this context, I’m referring to the deepest level of appearance, based on the notion that reality itself, the Tao or realm of causation, is unchanging even though it is constantly generating and only its effects are visible and that these effects (the world you perceive, or as the ancient Taoists called it, the world of the ten thousand things) are merely appearances, which change shape and position according to how you perceive them. This is the basis of magic in the true sense. For instance, choose to see the world as a place of wonder and opportunity, a warm, nurturing place that is only here to facilitate your healthy growth and perfect happiness and let that choice resonate soundly throughout your person and within but a wee while, the appearance of reality and, hence the way you experience it, will alter to match that.
One way to get your choice to resonate is to repeat it aloud or under your breath, as appropriate, in affirmation form and to link doing so with various habitual actions performed during the course of a typical day or night. So, for example, if say your choice was as above (but obviously make your own choices here), before taking a shower you’d say it, as you left the house you’d say it again, as you entered the workplace, you’d say it again and so on and of course, you’d say it as an antidote any time the words or actions of other people, and/or the thoughts in your own mind, caused a flurry of tension within, so that by the time you got to bed, your unconscious mind would be in no doubt what your choice was. Your choice would have resonated all the way to your bones and you would be that choice and by and by the external world would have reshaped itself to reflect that.
May this serve you well and may your world be full of wonder and opportunity today and tonight.Love,

Pure Love

So here we all are, mostly rushing about on the surface of the planet, as if its heliocentric orbital speed of 66,000 mph wasn’t fast enough for us, all busily focussed on doing our chores, fulfilling our obligations, making our moves and generally working towards making dreams come true and with all that action is easy to lose perspective and forget where the real treasure lies.
When you eventually drop your body so you can get finally off the planet, the only thing you take with you, if anything is taken at all, is the love you’ve shared with others in all its various forms: those moments of pure soul connection with others, that happened for no other reason than love wanting to express itself – that’s what you take with you, if anything – that’s what gives your life meaning – not how efficiently you get through all your tasks, nor how well you manage to organise your physical existence, though at times, when caught up in the cut and thrust of the everyday, the very notion seems a bit wet, even though it’s not – to the contrary, acknowledging and accepting that love is the most precious jewel in existence and then living from that stance, is the boldest move you can make. And the truly beautiful, magical thing about it, is that once you do, the details of your material existence have a habit of sorting themselves out in an implausibly elegant way – far more so than when you spend your entire focus on them. It’s magic and I don’t really know how it works, other than by emanating a field of pure love around yourself, you attract even gods and spirits bearing great gifts, let alone mere mortals.
The key to realising this hallowed, yet eminently attainable state, while engaged in the everyday world, lies in simply relaxing the heart (chest region) at all times, especially around others, no matter who they are, something I’ll be talking about in more depth, should you be keen to experiment, in today’s Barefoot Journal.
Meantime, may you be blessed with waves of pure love moving freely and with full force up and down the connection between you and the world today and may the events triggered thrill you to the bone.

Pleasing To The Spirits

With the global economy joining the global ecology on the slippery slopes now, heralding inevitable transformation in the underlying warp and weft of all aspects of life, it’s likely, unless burying your head deep in the sand, you’ll be occasionally finding yourself feeling somewhat existentially insecure and wondering about the future, in terms of how it will turn out and even how much of it there might be left. At such times of insecurity it is paramount to focus attention on developing a secure internal base from which to experience the accelerating changes in the external world, that you might grow in sanity rather than the opposite, for no matter how turbulent the outside, if the inside is stable, you are able to be more clear-minded, confident, unflappable and therefore more able to turn whatever happens, or fails to happen, in any one moment, to your advantage.
One of the surest ways to build a firm internal base is via meditation on a daily basis.
The Taoist style I’ve been interpreting and developing into something simple and straightforward enough for everyday use by anyone at any time and which I espouse in a near endless gush on a pretty much daily basis for your existential delectation and delight, requires no special equipment or costume (incense, cushions, rugs, throws, blankets, shawls, hats, false ears, robes, baggy pants, corsets, candles, dimmer switches etc), can be done with eyes open while in the midst of activity and needs only a short while spent – just five minutes will do the trick – as long as it’s done on a daily basis, which isn’t as onerous as it may seem, even to the laziest dilettante, as after only a few days of practice, it soon becomes apparent that it makes you feel so good and stable, in a subtle yet radical way, the whole day long, subsequent to practice, it becomes addictive, hence desirable, rather than a chore.
There are a few aspects to attaining a basic grasp of the fundaments, the most powerful of which is the breathing. Start the process now by concentrating on your breathing, gradually causing it to decelerate measurably, making the in- and out-breaths of equal duration, softening the quality until it feels as if you’re reeling silk from a cocoon, allowing the belly to swell as the breath comes in and flatten as the breath goes out again and counting nine breaths before drawing your awareness back to the external world.
This will almost instantly slow your mind down, increase focusing power and bring peace and calm to every cell in your body.
This is one vital aspect - check out today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL for another if you want to deepen the experience even more.
Gradually you train yourself to remain in meditation the whole day and night long, as you work, rest and play, by which time you can be said to be a bit of a master (or mistress).
May you be fully in command of yourself today and tonight and may the results be profoundly pleasing to the spirits.

Wisdom In Being An Idiot

There is much wisdom in being an idiot and I should know. I mean idiot in the sense of the archetypal Fool, he or she, who is without guile or contrivance, free of artifice, airs and graces, unencumbered by the burden of self-importance, unfettered by restrictive social conditioning, unclouded by false beliefs, clear of prejudice and willing to greet all comers and all eventualities with perfect equanimity and magnanimity, having fully transcended the realm of preferences, knowing that every coin has two sides, every cloud has a silver lining and every silver lining has a cloud, thus fully awake to the inherent yin-and-yang dynamic underpinning the mechanics of the universe and everything that moves within it, for in this state and only in this state, can you be said to be living in heaven on earth, only in this state can you be said to be inhabiting hyper-reality and only when inhabiting hyper-reality are you fully able to manifest whatever reality, or appearance of mundane reality you want, so if you want to attain to that state, begin at once by allowing your whole body to shudder like a horse and as it does, imagine yourself shaking yourself free of the burden of your own self-importance, releasing entirely the weight of the myth you’ve been carrying around about who you are and what the world is and instead allowing yourself to be totally comfortable with not knowing who you are or what the world is, thus free of all prejudice and, in this state, encouraging a vision to form of itself in the frontal aspect of your brain, in which you see yourself living exactly the kind of life you want to be living, complete with all physical and material resources required to facilitate it, letting yourself fully feel what it’s like being in the body of such a person and finally reminding yourself that person is none other than you, upon which you are free, in your own time, to almost stop reading this implausibly long, yet not so un-deftly constructed sentence and return gently to the everyday state, feeling subtly transfigured and transformed, as well as ready and raring to go with the next step of your fabulous adventure, one I wish for you to be so splendid today, tonight and through the weekend, you have to physically restrain yourself from running naked and ebullient to the highest natural or human-made point in your district and shouting, ‘Barefoot is a brick,’ for all the world to hear.

Blessed

The Tao is all around you and everywhere within you but you block your awareness of it, partly through faulty conditioning and the mistaken belief that you are something less than divine yourself and therefore prohibited from the privilege of knowing and communing with the Tao directly, so you throw up a series of smokescreens to prevent direct access and then think you have to work hard to break through them to be become enlightened, whereas in fact, all you have to do is stop and know the Tao. It’s no big deal and it changes everything, though as soon as it does (alter your perspective profoundly), you realise that nothing has really changed at all – the Tao was always here with you, in you, around you, as it always has been for all of us but you were just distracted from it or obfuscating your own view of it.
It’s in the air your breathe, the sound of the words you speak, the feel of the energy moving through your limbs, the dynamic between you and the next person you speak to, in the gravity that holds you on the planet, in the taste of the next mouthful of food you eat, in the liquid quality of the next drink to slide down your throat, in the smell of the perfume you’re wearing, in the motile force of the next thought you think – it’s in everything, informing everything, animating everything, generating everything – and everyone, you, me and every living being in the universe and it is supremely conscious, supremely aware and its nature is love, pure love, so as you breathe in and out, eschew for a moment the thoughts of your rational mind, that’s trying to be so clever about everything all the time, it prevents you really knowing what’s happening here and know that as you breathe in, it’s because the Tao is breathing out into you and when you’re breathing out, it’s because the Tao is breathing in and creating a suck that’s pulling the breath from you. Know that as you breathe the Tao, the Tao is breathing you and as it does, you notice you’re starting to feel connected to the collective consciousness in spite of yourself, which provides an apt opportunity to spread a bit of unconditional love all about for the benefit of all, which in turn will rebound on you multiplied in the form of countless blessings heaped upon your head even this merry Monday, which should last you right through the week, at least.
May your day and night and week ahead be blessed.

Any Dreamer Will Tell You

Only the Tao is real: only the preatomic force generating this endless hall of mirrors – everything else: all the reflections you see in the distorted glass, are merely relative phenomena.
This doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt when you brush up against these reflections too brusquely but that pain is merely a relative phenomenon too.
Ultimately it all comes down to identifying with the Tao informing this realm of relativity, for only in that identity can you ever touch the real.
This won’t stop the fun. To the contrary, it will only enhance it. The more identified with the Tao you allow yourself to become, the more easily you are able to induce the reflections to bend their light in such a way as to facilitate the outcomes you desire in each and every situations.
The more aware you are that you’re asleep dreaming, the more pliable all aspects of the dream become. It’s only when you forget you’re dreaming that the action grows terrifying, causing you to freeze and lose your power. Any dreamer will tell you so.
So as you wend your way today, tonight and through the weekend, with every instance of being sucked in by the illusion to the extent you’re feeling anxious or upset, remind yourself, ‘only the Tao is real – what I’m seeing here is just a distorted reflection of its light, which will bend to my will, as soon as I relax and soften my heart.’
This is one of the keys to attaining the state of perpetual happiness.
May it serve you well and, as a result, may you experience a run of unexpected blessings today, tonight and through the weekend.
Love, Doc

Think With The Totality Of Yourself

With the world becoming increasingly nonsensical, some would say insane, it behoves us ever more as relatively awake warriors on the path of self-realisation, to engender a state of peace within and transmit that globally. It’s the same as if you’re at a party where the atmosphere is turning sour on account of various people becoming stressed and, as a result, acting unwholesomely in some form or other: if you relax and visualise your relaxation spreading like a sedating vapour to everyone present, especially the offending parties, the atmosphere tends to be ameliorated within a few minutes without a word needing to be said. It’s magic and it works every time (so far). And there are no limits to the scale it works on. Hence if you get in the right mode and attune yourself to the ineffable Tao informing the entirety of existence at the preatomic level and so attuning, allow yourself to feel at peace by desisting from interfering with the process with the raging bull in your mind, and imagine your peace spreading vapour-like to all corners of the globe, triggering an increase of peace for every living soul, that too will have an actual effect. It may be imperceptible but like a butterfly passing wind, its effects will accumulate and eventually be felt throughout the universe. If all parts of this universe are in motion and interconnected, how else could it be? It’s basic physics. And the more often you do it, the more effect it will have. Ultimately, in your fully-realised state, you will know yourself to be nothing less than the Tao itself, expressed momentarily in human form. As such, the choices you make affect the whole, so feel impotent in the face of incipient global insanity no longer: the thoughts you think with the totality of yourself have power.
A good shorthand method for bringing the fullness of yourself to bear on the moment, is to press lightly with forefinger in the dead centre of your forehead, just above the line of the eyebrows for 30 seconds, repeating the words, ‘I am one.’
This acupuncture point, known as the ‘happy point’, draws mind, body, spirit and the world around into a momentary state of unity within a few minutes of releasing the pressure and taking your finger away and is guaranteed to induce a subtle increase in happiness as a result.
May you feel so subtly happy as a result today and tonight, you feel moved to run to the highest human-made or natural point in your district and subtly shouting, ‘Barefoot is a brick,’ for all the world to hear.

Flower Of The Tao

Just as there are allegedly many ways to skin a cat – there are many ways to explain what’s underpinning the evidently growing insidious neurotic social urge to display status at every opportunity – the posing and pretension, the airs and graces, the obsession with brands, looks, styles, the fascination with momentary celebrities, the complex maintenance of the ever-shifting hierarchy, as well as the ever-shifting criteria by which status is judged – the conundrum Bob Dylan labelled ‘the disease of conceit’, the vanity of the human funfair – but whichever level you look from, the sociological, the psychological, the metaphysical or so on, self-esteem or lack of it is at the nub.
The extent to which you hold yourself in high esteem, is the extent to which you’re unsusceptible to the marketing and promotion of products, services and ideas that false-promise to antidote or banish your latent adolescent complexes and existential insecurities. The extent to which you hold yourself in high esteem, is the extent to which you’re able to feel comfortable and at one with the human race, regardless of perceived status – and indeed, vice versa. The extent of your self-esteem directly determines how comfortable others feel around you, no matter their perceived status.
There’s nothing wrong with wearing the latest fashion, sporting the latest look, smelling of the latest fragrance or listening to the latest music, indeed I want you to listen to my latest music, when it comes out shortly, as these things add flavour and colour to your experience to various degrees. However, no matter how you dress or otherwise colourise everyday reality, self-esteem has nothing to do with this. Even proudly driving the sleekest, fastest, most outrageously priced sports car on the road, though your status while on the move will be assured, your self-esteem levels will not necessarily be affected.
Obviously surrounding yourself with nice things, having the right tools, the right disguises, the right credentials all help boost your momentary confidence and are indications that you value yourself enough to make your material set-up easy on the senses but in themselves, no external factors can ultimately touch your self-esteem.
Self-esteem in fact has nothing to do with externals and everything to do with remembering who and what you really are: nothing less than an expression of the ineffable miracle of existence, a flower of the Tao, for as soon as you remember that, how can there be anything other than self-esteem? We’re talking about being a manifestation of the inexplicable generative force at the heart of this universe, which must strike a chord of awe and respect to some degre, even in the most devout atheist.
However, even remembering your universal status is not enough. You also have to remember the same holds for every other living being on this planet, especially the other 6.5 billion humans wandering frantically on, beneath and above its surface. As soon as you do, you experience unity with all that is. Unified you are complete in yourself and need no external artifice to bolster you.
Paradoxically, this leaves you free to indulge the world's froufrou to your heart’s content, should that be your whim, without identifying with and hence being enslaved by it: in the world of the world but not of it.
If everyone on the planet managed to access their innate self-esteem, it would dramatically attenuate the urge to violate, dominate or exterminate each other and peace and plenty would more easily prevail - though a lofty aim, it starts with each of us as individuals and spreads out from there/here.
May you be awash in peace and plenty of everything good today and tonight.Love, Doc

Fundamentally Altered

The problem with talking about self-esteem, is that for many, there is no self in the first place, merely a composite of acquired reactions to life, which over the years form a habit, hence rendering them highly susceptible, not only to the skills of any marketing person offering the latest branded life-accessory promising in vain to give them an identity, providing they can pay, hence the unprecedented levels of vanity currently demonstrated in society, but also to social angst and stultification whenever confronted by those perceived to be of higher status.
This sense of self is a nebulous phenomenon, one which some wise ones say derives from your mother and the degree of healthy energetic, emotional, psychological and practical input she gave you in those first crucial days, weeks, months and years. Indeed the ancient Taoists believed the energy generated in your spleen, which governs your relationship with the earth plane (food, money, other people and awareness of your place in time and space), derives similarly from your mother and its strength and effectiveness is directly determined by the quality and consistency of that original maternal flow in your direction. The more adjusted your spleen energy, the more of a stable sense of self you have, regardless of external factors or conditions and, paradoxically, the more adroit you are, therefore, at manipulating the material plane to your advantage as a result.
However, as all mothers have always been and always will be human and therefore fallible, it’s rare to find an individual whose sense of self is absolute – as with everything, it’s a matter of degrees but there are ways to develop selfhood gradually and over time have it be established enough to withstand most of the storms life throws at you, without even having to delve that deep, simply by dealing directly with the spleen energy with a view to growing it, a sound method for doing which is explained in this weekend BAREFOOT JOURNAL.
In the meantime, consider the immensity of the universe and of the power that informs its eternal motion. Your self is a direct expression and manifestation of that – nothing less. Same goes for every other living being. Still your mind for a moment, long enough to realise it now and the reality you perceive around you will be fundamentally altered for the better by a quantum leap.
May you experience a whole run of quantum leaps today, tonight and through the weekend, leaps that thrill and delight you to the marrow.
Love, Doc

Good To Know You Have Options

Every now and then you go through a strange patch, during which many or all your familiar reference points are thrown in the air, leaving you feeling disorientated and vaguely uncomfortable. The tendency is to resist it, to try and make it not strange anymore, to cling to something familiar even if it’s outworn, as if strange was something to avoid, something extraordinary. In fact, strange is the natural state and is better welcomed than resisted. Strange is a sign growth is occurring.
While growing might not be what you’re here for, it certainly comprises what happens being here. You either grow or you shrivel. What you’re here for is to enjoy it. To enjoy it you have to keep growing in order to process the all the new incoming data required for survival in an ever-changing world. To keep growing you have to pass through strange patches that seem to threaten to stop your enjoyment. At this point it is your choice whether to welcome and hence enjoy the strangeness even if it feels strange, or to resist it and stop enjoying yourself. Resistance to the flow of what is prevents enjoyment. And the other alternative, which is, in fact, also a form of resistance: distracting yourself from it through a variety of methods (self-pity, fantasy-daydreaming, rage, shopping, sex, drugs, drink, workaholism, or even bogus spirituality, for instance), only allays the strangeness momentarily, which causes it to return amplified.
Our world is undergoing exponentially accelerating transformation, some apparently benign, some apparently malign, hence on an individual level, as you necessarily grow and evolve to accommodate the information arising from external transformation, strangeness is to be expected in increasing measure now.
Strangeness is the new normal and the faster you learn to move comfortably with it, the faster you regain and retain equilibrium.
The mind likes everything to be resolved. That’s its nature. It feels uncomfortable in flux as a result and will cling to anything to speed resolution: fundamentalism, traditionalism, materialism etc. However if you override that tendency and allow yourself to grow, you’re opening yourself to the mystery and though that will inevitably lead you through some damn strange passages at times, the rewards are living your life as an adventure rather than being stultified and stuck in situations you’ve outgrown but are too afraid to leave.
It’s not that one way is necessarily better than the other. It’s simply good to know you have options.
In the weekend BAREFOOT JOURNAL, I go into how to train your mind to take optimum advantage of strange in order to propel yourself by a quantum leap along the Great Thoroughfare.
I wish you a day, night and weekend ahead rich with delightful surprises at every turn.

A Thousand Meetings With The Buddha

Yesterday, I proposed/announced instigating a collective experiment, based on the ancient Taoist principles of wu wei, for effortlessly manifesting shifts in external reality simply by visualisation, in this instance encouraging as large and increasingly expanding group of us as possible, once a day for a few seconds, to each visualise, using each our own unique imagery, the entire human population of approximately 6.5 billion people, relaxing at least 9% more and in that state of deepened relaxation, being able to more easily eschew the destructive impulse and so tune into the positive life-force (love) running through us all, and thus informed, miraculously, mysteriously, collectively discover the way through whatever global conundrums lie ahead during this deepening transitional phase of declining resources, rising prices and accompanying unrest.
Today I’d like to suggest shining the focus on how we each perceive the human race, for according to the immutable laws of metaphysics, whatever we focus on grows. Hence if you view your fellow planet-riders as 6.5 billion individual nuisances, that’s how they’ll show up to you and the real-time result will be turgid for all concerned. If, alternatively, you were to view each as a Buddha in disguise – if you were able to look beyond the surface guise to the enlightened Buddha within each, for there is always one, no matter how well obscured that Buddha self in each may be (to them as well as you) – that’s precisely how they’d show up to you, that’s how they’d act towards you and the result would be as you’d expect whenever dealing with a Buddha: sublime.
To do so constitutes a discipline – a warrior’s discipline – as it’s too easy to forget and sink back into the self-deluded, superior, judgemental state and thereby elicit a negative response from the world around you.
The key to this discipline is vigilance and breathing: vigilance to note whenever you’re slipping into negative default mode and exhaling/relaxing to release it, both from the mind and the muscles.
In today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL, I’m focusing on how, in terms of the collective experiment, to employ this tactic in respect of engendering world peace, or more precisely, a preponderance of peace over violence.
Meantime, may you be blessed by a thousand meetings with the Buddha today and tonight as you wend your way.
Love, Doc

Producing A Future We Can Thrive In

Assuming you’ve been trying out the old Taoist methods of manifesting what you want by focusing and visualising, I’ve been sharing here over the past couple of years or more, have been meeting with some success and are hence open to possibilities, I’m interested in instigating an experiment based on the idea that the synergy produced by a multitude of people broadly focusing and visualising the same outcome could prove to be a crucial factor in bringing about a relatively smooth transition for human society through what is evidently shaping up to be a rocky passage on all fronts over the next few years, as turbulence develops in the ecological, biological, economic, geopolitical and social spheres.

If you look back to times you’ve been faced with apparently insurmountable challenges, conundrums or obstacles, you’ll recall that moment, when by relaxing into the situation and accessing a shred of faith in your ability to unravel whatever knots lay in your path, you somehow, mysteriously managed to find the way through and came out smiling.

My experiment is simple and is confined merely to encouraging as large and increasingly expanding group of us as possible, once a day for a few seconds, to each visualise, using our own imagery, the entire human population of approximately 6.5 billion people, relaxing at least 9% more and in that state of deepened relaxation, being able to more easily eschew the destructive impulse and so tune into the positive life-force (love) running through us all, and thus informed, miraculously, mysteriously, collectively discover the way through whatever global conundrums lay ahead during this deepening transitional phase of declining resources, rising prices and accompanying unrest.

I suggest, momentarily suspending fearful thoughts, no matter how seemingly rational and conjuring up an image, each in our own style, of the human population 9 years or so hence, having successfully negotiated its way through the coming challenges via a predominance of wisdom and love rather than force and fear.

I believe if enough of us do that on a daily basis, it will lend actual force to the unlikely but possible enterprise of producing a future we can thrive in, rather than the alternative.

If the idea of that experiment holds appeal, tune in to the Barefoot Journal each day, where I’ll somehow be finding a way to expand on the theme and detail specific aspects of human, experience, activity and behaviour to focus on, in a similar way to accessing specific acupuncture points to needle during a treatment, that will cause the entire system to right itself, something I did fairly successfully for a living for 20 years, so have a bit of a feel for.

Have a top Tuesday,

Love, Doc

Sustaining Life

Sitting at David’s Café on the corner, where I like to go and sit once a day if time permits, to knock back an Americano, watch the world go by and indulge the fantasy for a moment that I’m living a leisurely Mediterranean style life, it occurs to me that each of us is walking or driving around in our own universe, comprised of our individual perception of reality and of our place in it, defined by our hopes, aspirations, fears, doubts, complexes, daring and so on, often reaching out for confirmation from others through SMS or voice contact on our mobiles, or drowning our ears in the musical ideas of others piped in from our MP3 players and how if you combine approximately 6.5 billion human universes like that and have them happening contemporaneously and co-spatially on one relatively small planet, there’s bound to be the odd collision of wills, the occasional contretemps to add friction to the action and the fact that these are the exception rather than the rule for most of the people in most places, most of the time, constitutes a miracle of epic proportions but because we are generally unaware of the obvious and are in any case bombarded by the media’s insistence on reporting and emphasising the bad news rather than the good, we tend to view the world as a dangerous, tense place, whereas in fact, it’s more peaceful than not.

It’s all in how you choose to view it – through which prism you care to look.

I say this in respect of the proposition I’ve been making this week of instigating a collective experiment, based on the ancient Taoist principles of wu wei, for effortlessly manifesting shifts in external reality simply by visualisation, in this instance encouraging as large and increasingly expanding group of us as possible, once a day for a few seconds, to each visualise, using each our own unique imagery, the entire human population of approximately 6.5 billion people, relaxing at least 9% more and in that state of deepened relaxation, being able to more easily eschew the destructive impulse and so tune into the positive life-force (love) running through us all, and thus informed, miraculously, mysteriously, collectively discover the way through whatever global conundrums lay ahead during this deepening transitional phase of declining resources, rising prices, unstable conditions on all fronts and accompanying unrest.

So for today, tonight and through the weekend ahead, if countless numbers of us, say the 20,000 or so from all around the world, who read this page each day, were to visualise that peaceful force growing stronger via the agency of an imaginary healing vapour enveloping the entire planet and touching the inner peaceful, loving Buddha within each individual with its soothing essence, the chances are good that within but a few days, remarkable things will start happening in the world – unexpected incidents of mutual cooperation, breakthroughs in technological progress in respect of future life-sustenance and surprise examples of wise negotiations on the world stage. And if we visualise the world a few years hence, having been subject to the benign effects of this healing vapour all that time, settled into a space of mutual cooperation directed at sustaining life on the planet rather than plundering it for all it’s worth as is evidently happening at the moment, in spite of all talk to the contrary, the chances are good that will happen, in spite of its implausibility.

Alternatively you can either bury your head in the sand or become glum, however, as viewed from David’s Café, the world tends to be far more an enjoyable place to hang out from moment to moment, when you train your mind to see the positive outlook instead.

In this Weekend Special BAREFOOT JOURNAL, I go in depth into a process for modestly engendering miraculous outcomes to all situations for everyone everywhere.

Meantime, may you be blessed with unshakable peace and confidence in the Tao today, tonight and right through the weekend ahead.

The Tao Of You

As resources dwindle, competition levels naturally increase. That’s obvious.
It translates itself into all spheres of activity as an a priori thrust in the sub-current of human interaction.
The temptation is to increase your own competitiveness to match it.
However the Taoist approach is to instead operate from a different model altogether, eschewing competitiveness for creativity.
Coming from the creative stance, as opposed to the competitive, you begin by assuming you create your own reality and can create it to include you having everything you need in all aspects of your life, regardless of the competitiveness of others. The creative stance implies accepting the abundance model, as opposed to the scarcity model, according to which you manifest what you want from source – the Tao Of You – and the Tao delivers it to you through the people you’re dealing with or will be dealing with.
According to the abundance model, the more of it you source from source, the more source will generate for everyone, hence precluding the need to envy others’ good fortune and encouraging an attitude of wishing all others well for their good fortune. The more you wish others well, the more wellness you generate in your own life, wellness that will affect all aspects of your world, from the spiritual to the financial.
Hence rather than lose yourself in the stress of competing, transcend that mode altogether by adopting the creative stance and devote energy you’d have otherwise wasted on competing, to creating the reality you really want instead via such tools as visualisation and affirmative thought, a viable short routine of which is explained in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL.
Meanwhile, may you create a day and night for yourself, replete with such splendour in all respects, it quite takes your breath away.

Magic Rather Than Brute Force

There’s much talk of manifesting these days, as more and more people are drawn to the notion of working your life through magic rather than brute force and of all the manifesting systems, nothing comes close, in my opinion, to the ancient Taoist model, or wu wei, as they called it, meaning roughly, the art of effortless manifesting.
The system depends entirely on the premise that having made your intention clear to the source of all existence, Tao Of You, which you access within your own body, specifically via the centre of your brain, or cavity of original spirit, the Tao then sends what you want through the people you know or are about to get to know, over the course of time and will produce all the requisite conditions to facilitate it happening without you having to make any effort, other than continuing to fulfil your professional, social and personal obligations to the best of your ability at all times as usual.
Hence it stands to reason, that if you can generate a loving energy and infuse the collective ambience with it, thus making it feel more appealing for the emissaries of the Tao (other people) to be in your immediate orbit, it will expedite the process of manifesting what you want.
In other words, being loving makes you loveable, which draws others to you, along with whatever potential opportunities they have to offer you.
Being loveable and, by extension, loving, starts with being willing to transcend judgemental mode and choosing to see past what you perceive as the personality distortions of the other, to see past what you perceive to be their shortcomings and even to see past whatever wrongs you perceive them to have done you, to the pure essence within them.
Having done so, compassion naturally arises, meaning you are able to put yourself in their shoes, feel their suffering and wish healing and wellness for them in all respects.
Once compassion arises, it’s simply down to intending your innate human warmth to exude from your chest and envelop whomever you find in your orbit.
Radiate love and the universe will love you back by bringing you everything you want in the optimal form to produce your perfect happiness and healthy growth.
A specific method for engendering this state of grace is explained in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL.
May you feel such love and so loved today and tonight, you think your heart might burst.

Supremely Gifted

You’ve got to be strong, keep on keeping on and have faith in yourself now.
You could choose the alternative and loose yourself in self-pity, self-doubt and self-punishment if you’d find that enjoyable but it wouldn’t benefit you as much or help speed you along the path to your perfect happiness as quickly.
So without further ado, exhale sharply three times and expel the very essence of negativity from your person.
In between which, inhale deeply three times and draw into you the very essence of optimism and trust that all good things are coming to you.
Then stop and remind yourself that your perfect happiness does not depend on external conditions, no matter how many good things are coming to you but depends entirely on being willing to celebrate your existence exactly as it is just now, this very moment and the next and the next and so on.
Perfect happiness is the natural state and will be evident whenever you stop doing harm to yourself by indulging in self-pity, self-doubt, self-punishment or self-limiting, stress-producing moves of any kind.
It’s as simple as that. stop doing yourself down in a thousand different insidious ways and allow the natural state of perfect happiness to be yours.
It’s your birthright.
You don’t have to earn it.
You don’t have to work for it.
You merely have to stop working against it.
The more frequently you allow the natural state of perfect happiness to be your default mode, the more life responds by producing external conditions that will best facilitate perfect happiness for you.
Hence, be strong – strong enough to relinquish negativity – keep on keeping on – stay in the game and have absolute faith in your birthright.
May you feel supremely gifted today, tonight and right through the weekend ahead.

Reality is plastic


Reality[2007-10-02 05:21:00]


It responds to the commands you give it.
Reality is an expression of the ineffable consciousness-life-love, generative force of existence, the Tao.
The Tao is receptive to your wishes, because you are an expression of the Tao – you are the Tao and the Tao is you.
The rational mind resists this, because that’s what rational minds do.
Suspend the rational mind momentarily and experiment with existence now.
Give reality the command to regale you with a run of beautiful surprises today and that’s what it will do.
It doesn’t have to make sense. Do it and see what happens, if you feel like.
Relax your body.
Decelerate the tempo of your breath.
Draw the point from which you’re observing the moment back into the centre of your brain (a viable method for which is explained in today’s BAREFOOT JOIRNAL) and with full sincerity of heart, address the Tao Of You, the Great Way and say, ‘Tao Of Me, regale me with a run of beautiful surprises today,’ then draw yourself gently back into the everyday state, forget all about it, carry on as you were and before you go to sleep tonight, look back over the day and you’ll notice you’ve been regaled with a run of beautiful surprises.
May you be regaled with such a run of beautiful surprises, it clean takes your breath away.

Moments Of Spontaneous Enlightenment

MONDAY SPECIAL -

[2007-10-22 05:33:00]


Don’t waste a second feeling sorry for yourself or dismayed should you find yourself experiencing what you consider to be a substandard passage of reality, as this merely takes your personal power away and holds you stuck in the delusion of being a victim of external circumstances. Instead acknowledge that you have manifested things exactly as they are and then be fully willing to trust yourself enough to give yourself the benefit of the doubt for having done so. For no matter how askew things may seem, they are precisely as they’re meant to be in order for you to attain to your perfect happiness. The spiritual force within that moves things around in the external world to produce the desired eventual result for you, works in mysterious ways. Always trust it knows what it’s doing, otherwise you risk driving yourself mad for no reason.
Or drive yourself mad for no reason. It’s entirely your choice.
However if wishing to experience many magical moments of sartori (enlightenment/awakeness), simply keep reminding yourself you’ve manifested things exactly as they are and have done so because you actually like them this way. As soon as you acknowledge you actually like things the way they are even if your rational mind baulks at the notion, everything instantaneously transmutes into something way better, as that’s the way reality works when you engage with it on a magical level like this.
Look around at what you perceive to be your reality (it’s all merely subjective: the way you organise your perceptions and thoughts about them into a shape you recognise as your reality) and for each aspect that comes into view, tell yourself, ‘I have manifested this because I like it.’ Avoid analysing or investigating this rationally. Simply treat it as an experiment. If you do manage to bypass your rational mind long enough to glimpse how you do indeed manifest everything as you perceive it to be, you’ll experience sartori. The more often you do so, especially when beset by doubts, fears, anxiety, stress, guilt, regret or what-have-you, the more empowered you’ll become and hence the less dependent on external distractions to numb the pain of being alive. Instead, you’ll welcome the pain as a sure sign you’re here on the planet and will use it to grow stronger, more self-reliant, more self-contained and more resilient through.
Or maybe you won’t. It’s up to you.
One thing’s certain though.
Telling yourself it’s you who has manifested everything as it is because you like it this way and are therefore free to change it at will, you’ll have a far more enjoyable and merry Monday, than were you to tell yourself you’re a powerless victim of a cruel and capricious world. It’s just a simple matter of shifting your existential stance, a neat technique for affecting which, I go into in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL.
May you enjoy the merriest of Mondays, meanwhile, in which you are blessed so many times with moments of spontaneous enlightenment, you lose count.
Love, Doc

Let Your Thoughts Drift

Ease off on yourself a moment, stop driving yourself mad about what you want and how or whether you’re going to be able to get it, or if you do get it, whether you’ll still want it and all the rest of that self-punishing enterprise, ease off on your body: stop holding your breath, stop holding onto your muscles and let the whole complex you’ve grown accustomed to thinking of as you sink into itself and relax completely. At the same time, mentally lengthen your spine to keep you upright, imagining someone suspending the top of your head by use of an invisible thread attached to your crown.
Let your thoughts drift and allow a picture to form itself in your imagination of you a short way into the future, enjoying yourself so much you can hardly contain it. see yourself in this state because you’ve miraculously managed to create all the requisite external conditions to facilitate such joy: you’ve somehow jumped over all current problems and are now totally sorted in every respect. You don’t need to know how or why this has happened. All you need to know is it has happened. Don’t rush it. Allow yourself to indulge it for as long as it takes. Enjoy the feeling as if it’s already a fact. Give thanks to the Tao Of You for making it be so as if it has already been made so and in your own time, return to the world of the everyday.
Then smile, clap your hands and carry on as you were.
For detailed explanation of how to employ this technique with optimum effect in respect of creating a new level of abundance in your life, see the current BAREFOOT JOURNAL, for which you’ll need to be or become a member and it’s worth it.
Meanwhile, repeat the above procedure at least three times each day today, tomorrow and right through the weekend ahead and miracles will start occurring in your life.
May you be inundated with them now.

Lift Your Spirits

What’s so special about a Tuesday, you may ask but when you consider the alternative, No-day, it makes you appreciate how miraculous it is having a day to enjoy yourself on the planet. What’s so enjoyable about being on the planet, you may well ask but when you consider not being on the planet it makes you appreciate how miraculous it is you found this spot to hang out in this vast and endless universe in the first place. You might have manifested yourself somewhere way over the other side of the cosmos and never have organised yourself a broadband connection.

So here you are and in spite of any misgivings you might be holding onto about life, it’s a beautiful thing. Being willing to drop pride and say thankyou even if you can’t prove there’s anyone there to hear you – thankyou for me being here – is one of the most failsafe ways to instantly lift your spirits. It puts you immediately into a state of grace, whence you are easily able to envisage any improvements you fancy making to your reality and then simply by seeing the picture clearly enough and holding onto it with gentle tenacity, find it manifesting before your very eyes without your so much as having to lift a finger or two.

I go into this in more depth in today’s Barefoot Journal, to access which you’ll need to be or become a member and it’s worth it.

Meanwhile, have a top Tuesday and be bowled over by a run of serendipity that transforms you entire life for the better.

Flow Freely

Whatever you think you’re here for, you’re here to enjoy yourself and to share the unique essential beauty of your soul while you do. True enjoyment occurs through being integrated, being a unified whole, bringing the fullness of yourself to bear on each and every moment, with a relaxed, soft, warm heart to enable your love to flow freely and the love of others to flow freely your way, with a clear awareness that however reality is currently showing up for you, it’s showing up that way because you’re asking it to and that if you want it to show up differently, all you have to do is ask, thus causing you to remain firmly in the present moment, rather than allowing your mind to be lost in delusion, memory, fantasy or panic.

The instant method for self-unification and integration is found by regulating your breathing. Slow your breathing down now. Let your belly swell as you inhale and flatten as you exhale. Let the inhalation and exhalation be of equal duration. Let the breath be silent, smooth and silken.

You’ll notice, after a few breaths in and out, you’ve stopped panicking, stopped thinking about the past or future and are fully present and in command of yourself.

From here you can choose the outcome, quality and mode of whatever occurs today.

For example, choose an outcome of easy resolution to all your current challenges, an outcome of you brimming with joy; choose a smooth, fine, deluxe quality to everything that happens today and tonight; and choose it all to happen easily, effortlessly, enjoyably, swiftly and miraculously for you – and that’s exactly what you’ll get. It works every time, provided hat when you’re choosing it, you’re choosing it with the totality of you brought fully to bear on the moment of choosing. That way the choice is informed with energy and passion, which are equally as important as the ability to visualise whatever it is you want, in terms of the effectiveness of the manifesting process.

I explain a method for balancing and refining these three essential forces: visualisation-power, passion and energy in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL.

Meanwhile, may your outcomes, modes and qualities be so magical and so fine this merry Monday, you never have cause to doubt the universe (or yourself) again.

Leaving Your Chair

There are times you think you know everything and times you know you know nothing and both are merely states of local-state mind. Deep within, the universal mind, generally unconscious in the everyday state, knows everything that ever was, is or will be, throughout the entirety of existence without exception. The trick to being omniscient (psychic/clairvoyant/pre-cognisant) in the midst of the everyday, is to access that universal mind within.
Simplistically put, this vast reservoir of untapped mind capacity (universal consciousness receiving and processing facility) is spatially located in the rear section of the brain and by focusing attention there, as if shining a torch on it, shining the beam of awareness into the rear part of the brain for a few moments on a daily basis, you’ll start activating it and will begin experiencing spontaneous moments of sartori-like all-knowingness – you’ll find yourself naturally plugging into the universal mind at unexpected junctures in the day and it’s fun – existentially scintillating.
So if you like your personal, internal fun deep and existentially scintillating, relax and gather your awareness in the centre of your brain, equidistant between your ears and from there, train your focus to sweep backwards, as if shining a torch into all nooks and crannies of the rear section of the brain. Wherever the beam of light falls, visualise it activating the brain cells as if waking a sleeping giant. If paying full attention, you’ll notice energy moving through the cells and may even perceive subtle tingling all the way to the rear wall of the skull - and it will feel very pleasant.
You’ll instantly feel a greater depth of consciousness, as if there’s suddenly more of you, more depth to you and will wonder how you could have ever been previously satisfied with only having awareness in the front section of the brain, which is essentially concerned exclusively with survival on the everyday level.
If able to maintain this rearguard awareness when in the midst of conversation with others, you’ll also find yourself more empowered and able to communicate with authenticity and authority, mysteriously causing the other/s to drop into deepened awareness with you.
Check out today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL for a detailed explanation of how to turbo-charge the process.
People used to have to study with masters a few lifetimes to pick up keys like this and all you have to do now is click a mouse a few times and, if willing to put the information to use on a regular basis (these techniques require at least 30 days daily practice for a few moments each time to produce a tangible result), can attain to the state of Buddhahood without even leaving your chair.
May it serve you well and initiate such a profound altered state today and tonight and thenceforth, you feel as if you’ve been reborn.

Hug Yourself Heartily

There’s a rather foolish tendency of the human mind to attempt to control external reality – foolish when you consider the forces at play out there: an infinite universe of eternally, ferociously moving parts, replete with black holes, galaxies, cosmic wind, hurtling asteroids, scuttling cockroaches, teaming viruses, seething insanity in peoples’ minds, stellar explosions, trucks trundling full-pelt along highways, muggers on the byways, planes zooming through the sky and so on and so on – you simply can’t begin to control all that with your mind.

However you can tune into the underlying preatomic force generating (creating) and informing it all in all: the Tao, for want of a better expression and by so doing place yourself in confluence with it, thus magically and mysteriously causing the way it shows up to you and acts upon you to be benignly transformed.

In other words, though you can’t control the outside, you can take command of the internal state and by transforming it, transform the very warp and weft of external reality to suit you better. The ancient Taoists, who purportedly knew a thing or two about the warp and weft of reality, called this enterprise, wu wei, meaning being able to manifest shifts of external conditions using intention alone, without recourse to exertion of any kind – magic, by any other name.

However its success depends ironically on not giving a fig as to the outcome. To successfully affect external transformation of your world using wu wei, you have to step out of the way and take your desires, fears, hopes, self-doubt, complexes and local personality out of the equation with you, not just while engaged in the intention-forming (visualisation) process but also in the aftermath, while you’re hanging around waiting for the results to show.

So say you needed to manifest ten grand in a hurry, without which your life would become untenable, hence requiring a successful result or you don’t stay in the game, you tune into the Tao (a full explanation of how is in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL), tell it you want ten grand within a specified number of days, you visualise ten grand in your hand and then you totally let go of it, let go of figuring out how or whence it will come to you and let go of driving yourself crazy about whether the magic will work or not and completely surrender to the mystery.

And without fail, either the ten grand will drop into your account in the nick of time or your reasons for needing it will be attenuated or removed and your life will go on – you’ll be provided for.

But it will only work if you let go of caring whether it works or not.

This requires being able to face and accept the alternative to it working, however dire that appears and be willing to welcome and embrace that eventuality should it arise, with grace and equanimity.

That way you’re in a state of courage, even if quaking in your boots about it and in courage, grace arises. Through grace, miracles occur and you’ll experience the majesty of the universal force, the Tao operating in your life and moving all the pieces into place to facilitate your ongoing success at staying alive and in the game.

Meanwhile, may you feel so alive and in the game today and tonight it’s all you can do not to sneak up from behind, hug yourself heartily and whisper I love you in your ear.

Love, Doc

Nothing Can Wobble You Off Balance

I once went to visit Mrs Tweedy, an elderly Russian mystic-guru, who was popular in the 80s. After meditating together, she wanted to know if I had any questions. I asked her whether it matters if you panic at the point of death, whether that would spoil your chances of retaining your spirit or vice versa as you crossed over. She fixed me with her startlingly clear, bright blue eyes and said emphatically in her thick Russian accent, “You must never panic, my dear.”
Panic is insidious. You rarely notice it creeping up on your from deep in the belly till it’s already got hold of you. Often you are gripped by it in a low-level form without realising. The main sign is a tendency to inhibit the exhalation, to subtly or not so subtly hold your breath. This is done unconsciously to fend off the panic but all it does is perpetuate or exacerbate it. As soon as you notice and allow your diaphragm to let go so the breath can flow again, the panic starts subsiding.
Panic releases adrenalin into the system. Adrenalin is addictive. Hence the tendency to panic (and to hold the breath): to fuel the addiction. Acknowledging this, you become aware you have options. You can choose to lessen the panic or you can choose not to panic at all but to breathe and relax instead. You may not take these options but knowing you have them, in itself, starts to undo the compulsiveness.
As with all uncomfortable states, knowing it’s you, yourself, who generates them, as opposed to having them visited on you from without, instantly empowers you. Being empowered you feel able to make choices about which state to generate.
Choosing to relax, breathe and expect the best in any one moment and holding constant to that choice, will gradually engender a fairly stable level of calm no matter what’s occurring (or isn’t occurring) around you, however it will not prevent the wobbles. The trick is not to panic about them when they arise and the trick to that is partly in the breathing and partly in actively, consciously choosing relaxation instead.
Choosing and getting the choice to stick involves retraining your mind to think affirmatively, something I go into in more depth in today’s BAREFOOT JOURNAL – check it out.
Meantime, may you feel so relaxed today and tonight, nothing can wobble you off balance.

WEEKEND DOCBOX - Good To Know You Have Options

Every now and then you go through a strange patch, during which many or all your familiar reference points are thrown in the air, leaving you feeling disorientated and vaguely uncomfortable. The tendency is to resist it, to try and make it not strange anymore, to cling to something familiar even if it’s outworn, as if strange was something to avoid, something extraordinary. In fact, strange is the natural state and is better welcomed than resisted. Strange is a sign growth is occurring.

While growing might not be what you’re here for, it certainly comprises what happens being here. You either grow or you shrivel. What you’re here for is to enjoy it. To enjoy it you have to keep growing in order to process the all the new incoming data required for survival in an ever-changing world. To keep growing you have to pass through strange patches that seem to threaten to stop your enjoyment. At this point it is your choice whether to welcome and hence enjoy the strangeness even if it feels strange, or to resist it and stop enjoying yourself. Resistance to the flow of what is prevents enjoyment. And the other alternative, which is, in fact, also a form of resistance: distracting yourself from it through a variety of methods (self-pity, fantasy-daydreaming, rage, shopping, sex, drugs, drink, workaholism, or even bogus spirituality, for instance), only allays the strangeness momentarily, which causes it to return amplified.

Our world is undergoing exponentially accelerating transformation, some apparently benign, some apparently malign, hence on an individual level, as you necessarily grow and evolve to accommodate the information arising from external transformation, strangeness is to be expected in increasing measure now.

Strangeness is the new normal and the faster you learn to move comfortably with it, the faster you regain and retain equilibrium.

The mind likes everything to be resolved. That’s its nature. It feels uncomfortable in flux as a result and will cling to anything to speed resolution: fundamentalism, traditionalism, materialism etc. However if you override that tendency and allow yourself to grow, you’re opening yourself to the mystery and though that will inevitably lead you through some damn strange passages at times, the rewards are living your life as an adventure rather than being stultified and stuck in situations you’ve outgrown but are too afraid to leave.

It’s not that one way is necessarily better than the other. It’s simply good to know you have options.

In the weekend BAREFOOT JOURNAL, I go into how to train your mind to take optimum advantage of strange in order to propel yourself by a quantum leap along the Great Thoroughfare.

I wish you a day, night and weekend ahead rich with delightful surprises at every turn.
