First Stop! What is Happening?

Greetings Everyone. My first stop in creating a new ground rule for myself was to stop believing everything I see. Literally, back in 2004 I quit my job, reduce my expenses, and focused on being quiet. Sound crazy, huh? I was living in Portland, Oregon and one Sunday afternoon I strolled downtown on foot, wondered onto a street near the Willamette River. I did a lot of walking because I didn’t have a car. I parked on a bench and with no cars around, I decided to watch the traffic stoplight. It kept flashing a Green|Yellow|Red, all on its own.

As I watched and pondered what really was happening it dawned on me that Every Moment around me was Unique and Moving. Months later I read a book called The Kybalion that articulated the Hermetic Philosophy with 7 Spiritual Principles, one of which was “Everything is in Motion, Nothing stands Still.” Fast forward in time with many more experiences like since 2004 I continued my students and at last identified as a Spiritual Teacher and Philosopher.
