I initially tried meditation with the First Presbyterian Church Youth Group in Albuquerque NM when I was 16 years old. We sat on an oriental  rug in the Rev. Allen’s garage with our legs crossed and listened to Ravi Shankar for and hour. I’ve been fascinated ever since. That was more than 50 years ago.

Since then, I’ve enjoyed being in silence in all sorts of situations with all sorts of people from a variety of spiritual backgrounds or none and of course by myself.

I’d like to say, after all that time that I have control over my mind and can get it to be still for as long as I want……..but I can’t. NO CAN DO.

So after hearing Eckhart Tolle say,

“One conscious breath in and out is a meditation” I started making  little videos to help me stay present.

The result is THE MINUTE MEDITATION.
