Alan Watts Meditation
For this week”s meditation, we turn to American Zen master Alan Watts, who wrote…
I have realized that the past and the future are real illusions, that they exist only in the present, which is what there is and all there is.
Oh, so true.
Join me in the present moment, won’t you?
Take a long, slow deep breath, hold for a second, and then exhale slowly. Repeat several times until you feel your consciousness shift into the moment.
There.
That’s it.
That’s all there is.
It’s more than enough, too, isn’t it?

Dear Chet, This is the first time I’ve read your personal blog and I loved it. I particularly liked your rant on Mr. Graham since I’ve been hearing (inadvertently) his BS for many long years before you. I profess no affiliation to any organized religion, although I was born a Jew. Part of me believes there’s something out there; just don’t know what it is. I must say, the old creep was caught red-handed expounding on his anti-semitism with the other creep, Nixon, many years ago. Also, one of the most moral and decent friends I have is an avowed atheist – way better than I. I shall be reading more in the future and coming back to check out those pieces I missed. Peace.
