    That’s kind of you to say Anita and being published would be cool however I don’t think I’ve actually written anything that hasn’t been written about before. Mostly I take thoughts from various wisdom traditions, thinkers, old journal entries and all the quotes I’ve collected and play with them. Then wonder how how the observations have played out for me.

    Hi, hey.. dear Peter:

    J. Krishnamurti reached you: “‘The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.’ – J. Krishnamurti. That line struck something deep in me…

    “Krishnamurti once said, ‘It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.’ His words helped me see that much of what I called identity was simply adaptation, beliefs inherited, roles assumed, boundaries drawn in fear.

    “Letting go of that scaffolding felt like death at first, and in a way it was. But what emerged was not emptiness, but presence. Not meaning imposed but meaning arising…

    “I don’t think I’ve actually written anything that hasn’t been written about before.”-

    I don’t think anyone, including Krishnamurti, has written anything that hasn’t been written or thought of before.

    It’s about reaching people who haven’t reached by wise others, resaying or rewriting things in a way that reaches those who haven’t been reached before, making this or that other person say: Oh.. ah.. it never occurred to me before.

    As clever as Krishnamurti has been, you, Peter can reach people who Krishnamurti hasn’t or couldn’t reach, not by new thoughts, but by new presentations of those thoughts, and developing those new thoughts further.

    A new delivery. Peter’s own delivery, Peter’s words, Peter’s very personal, concrete, felt experience…

    I hope I am making sense (🍷 involved). Please let me know.

    🤍 Anita
