Just Another Day

Walking to my local pub for dinner, down my street the other evening. Looking at the total beauty of things as they are; the street, the curb, the buildings, the pan-handlers, the tourists, the sky, the light. It occurred to me that none of this, nothing at all, nothing that has happened, was happening, or ever would happen has any effect on what I truly am, whatsoever.

This is not a negative statement. The pure witness that gives rise to the feeling, the sureness, that “I am” never moves, is never affected, is never harmed, never was born and never dies. In that space of complete non-occurrence, all of the universe occurs, and that is what I am.

The diner was grand, to boot!

    I am looking for the Travis Eneix that was a co-designer of the RPG book Theatrix. I’m in process of creating a setting book for the Wheel of Time stories and I want to insure that any information I post doesn’t violate your copyright. I will be using it to run a game on the Dreamlyrics website.

    I also might be interested in buying the copyright from you and your co-designers for a reasonable sum.

    Please respond via email and if you’re not the correct person, please pardon me for bothering you.

    deep truth in your experience of the unalterable witness…one of my gurus, Adyashanti, speaks movingly to the “need” to cultivate the witness.

    shanti,

    maestro

    your subtitle reads: “Reporting on the world as it seems to be from where I see it.”

    an unsolicited suggestion…take or leave as you wish…

    Travis Eneix: Witnessing the world’s expression as it appears in every moment.

    OR

    Travis Eneix: Witnessing the unfolding of the eternal present.

    Maestro, thanks for the comment and the suggestion. I like Adyashanti bunches. I’ve read Emptiness Dancing and been to a satsang with him. He’s a very talented spiritual teacher with a lot of depth to transmit.

    As to the suggestion; those two don’t quite fit for me. But, you did make me think of a new one. ;-)
