“Could ‘prattling on’ include
unskillful use of social media?”
she intelligently asked.
“It could,” I responded,
“but in our good hearted enthusiasm
to work out all the practical applications
of spiritual principles
we could find ourselves
stuck in analysis
as if in a quagmire.
Like Luke Skywalker’s X-wing
sinking into Yoda’s swamp on Dagobah.
Much better it could be to practice
mindfulness and meditation in such a way
as to nurture the centered spontaneity
through which the best
choices, utterances and deeds
could flow,
like water
through a garden hose
on a hot summer’s morn.
Let us conclude
with a simple
call to action
In the Tibetan tradition Lamas are supported
not by monasteries but by students

blogs, and class materials is supported
by the generosity of viewers, and listeners, and readers
just like you.
