Quest for Presence Podcast Series

Origins

In this episode, we return to the Contemplations chapter in The Connoisseur of Time, specifically “Step 4” (Origin). Readers are asked to contemplate the origin or source point that led to the birth of seven inspirational passages about time and timelessness. What inspired Christ, Mohammed, Buddha, and others to speak these words?

Spiritual Passages, Personal Stories: Embodiment of the Treasures

This episode begins a key idea: many of us already know spiritual truths early in life. We each read from the chapter “Embodiment of the Treasures” in the Connoisseur of Time. Our group (Ronnie, Art, Kristie, and Joel) then talks about personal stories happening in life right now and seeing life as an opportunity for waking and being present together and through our stories.

Threshold: Part 1: Diving In

I love being in community with time weavers, because I always learn from them. In this episode I learned the difference between being a private (to oneself) ‘connoisseur’ and someone who gives praise and gratitude in a spontaneous and authentic way.

Crossing the Threshold from Clock-Time to Deep Time

I (Joel) set the stage by talking about recent data on how people use time. On average–in a life of 70 years, people spend 26 years sleeping, 19 years at work, 12 years watching TV, and 1 year socializing with others. This view of time is ultimately not skillful.

Waking up to the Map
Part 1

In this episode we first talk about the negative impact of time pressure on our health, our environment, and society.
