Some thoughts on attachment, hope, and fear
I’ve been re-reading Pema Chodron’s When Things Fall Apart, and while I’m chonicling most of what I’m getting out of reading this book in my entry for the emptiness work, I read a passage that I thought I might share now: For those who want something to hold on to, life is even more inconvenient.

Blending my practices
As I continue to evolve my personal magical practice, something which really stands out to me is that the practices and techniques I’ve learned from various paradigms and belief systems are inevitably becoming blended together. Tonight, for example, I met up with a brother in magic and we discussed ceremonial magic and evocation, Taoist and [...]
Review of the Fabric of the Cosmos and some thoughts on being a moral person
Book Review: The Fabric of the Cosmos by Brian Greene This is an excellent book on contemporary physics. It is written for a popular audience, but even with that, it is a dense book.

The Emptiness Working Month 2: Obsession

His attention to detail in his inventiveness was another sign of [...]
