The first part of this book is a conversation between Alf Whitmore and Addie Fulton...strangers...which occurs at an airline terminal. Alf has revised part of a book, and Addie consents to listen to him read his changes to her. This part speaks of freewill and fate...and the happenings that may be effected by having an opened pathway to the "just there". (the "just there" being God, or "other"). In this first part, Alf describes a scene in Nepal, during which he seems to be emptied to a cleared pathway by an act of kindness from a child...who presents him with a wreath of flowers. At the top of this scene he gives a passing lady, one who is almost entirely hidden in clothing...Ellen Quimby...a wooly cap. The child's kindness, and his kindness to the lady, seem to have been part of the same cleared condition. The second part...called the "Inn of the Seventh Sorrow...begins in Shanghai. Alf sees Ellen Quimby, clothes-concealed, who he met in Nepal. Here she is again...and he refers to her as "a sloughing pile of dung". Then Alf goes to western China, to Chengdu, and beyond that city to the mountains, through which he wishes to walk and bus to Tibet. And...again he sees Ellen Quimby( In the mountains), at the "Inn of tthe Seventh Sorrow", Here...Ellen can retain her hiddenness, or let Alf tear away the covering.

A Wind Under Heaven

Genre Fiction

Justice blindfolds herself to acknowledge that center, as she limits concern to action only.    Every bad act is far from that light, is in the mud of an injurious "difference".                                ***    In Nepal, Oliver Faulkner is pursued by a murderer.    With five friends, including his sweetheart, Molly,  Oliver goes to Changri La (La meaning "Pass")... pronounced Shangrila. So...also the murderer goes to Shangrila, or "the top" of the journey.

Where Deaf People Sing

In this universe one thing follows another. We relate to the speed of light, and say nothing can travel faster. Today, we know that two entangled bits of matter, though separated by vast distance, immediately co-respond to stimulus applied to one. Some say there was no message sent. The co-response is due to the oneness of reality. I believe messages can be sent over a vast distance immediately. This retains the separable nature of reality, and assures that man has self-emanated choice"free will. Man is not a machine, programmed to act according to what his genes dictate. Time and distance are relative also, and primarily, to the immediacy of consciousness.

Awareness As the Ground of Being

Politics & Social Sciences

Philosophy

Part 1 At an airline terminal, Alf Whitmore reads his papers to gray-haired Addie Fulton. He speaks of freewill and fate, and about how "Entirety I" is often felt to be "just there", at hand. He thinks that a pathway can be opened to it...cleared...by being in a condition of "loving only".Part 2 In Shanghai, Alf and Rob, long-time pals, meet fate's bridges. Alf sees Ellen Quimby, clothes-concealed, a form he once met in Nepal...and, now, distantly, calls her a "sloughing pile of dung". Alf goes westward, to a China mountain...and encounters her again. He wonders why. At the "Inn of the Seventh Sorrow", Alf knows why he met her in Nepal at a time of being empty and loving, when he seemed cleared to universal awareness and to proper choice. And here, at the Inn, Ellen can keep her hiddenness and be forever comfortably alone...or she can let Alf tear away the covering.
