Last night, according to the smart guys, the temperature dropped below freezing, and

… It was the last time that will happen for a good while or a good long while.

So today I offered Casey the option of stepping outside, away from the cozy domestication of the little front room, back toward his nominal wildness.

After 45 minutes of consideration, he took that option. Resurrected, to it.

I am hoping that is the best thing for him. That the choice wasn’t a Mistake.

I love that cat.

David Lynch explains Transcendental Meditation (in 17 minutes)

Lynch starts out sketching a simplistic outline of matter as normal tenured physicists of the modern day see it.

Then one of what mind, or consciousness is, beside it.

I agree with his generalized takes on these things.

And then, he hypes TM as a simple way of accessing the unified field from whence all things emerge, into things, including sapient human things and their conscious minds.

Again, more or less, I agree with his descriptions.

Thus I shall try in some (inexpensive) fashion his methodology for transcending.

In the last few minutes he talks about meditation by groups, and the positive social impact of that.

I’m not sure I care yet about these advanced techniques.

I’m not sure I care if I ever enjoy another donut.

But:

I do believe that if what I’ve called ‘rewilding’ is even a remote possibility, that it is the same, at its core, as what Lynch means by ‘transcending’.

In both cases the only possible salvation in the way forward is to loop backward, to the Source. (Fuck “progress”, in the Western sense of the word.)

Supposedly it will make me less ‘negative’ in the meantime.

So it might benefit you, my three devoted readers, as well, right here on this page.

Fingers uncrossing, open to soothin.
