My latest mind meanderings have revolved around the environment. Not just reduce, re-use, and re-cycle for the ecology. But all the environments we create. What is the atmosphere in a room, and what caused that?
How do a 'clean up' a space to make it the most useful?
How do we 'prepare' the space for a certain effect?
In my tradition we have many principles that help.
Mostly these are based on being clean & simple.
But we need to be effective and efficient,
exactly wear to begin and when to stop is not always clear,
We just keep polishing 'our act' till it becomes just enough.
Not too much and not too little, but just right (like the 3 little bears [did I mention that I like bears?]).
It seems that most important is doing the disciplines and habits that build the relationships we want in our lives and not 'feeding' those that don't.
We polish our lives in this way, and sure enough the ancient teachings turn out to be correct... imagine that.
There's some food for thought I suppose.
Building clean simple relationships.
Creating clean simple lives.
ummm?
