October 26, 2022 A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 48 excerpt)

Story 48 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

The fourth and final noble truth, the prescription for our
illness, to continue the medical metaphor, is outlined in
eight stages. The path (which is not, you may remember, a
path but a wheel) covers everything from your behavior, your
occupation, your speech, and your daily practice, right up to
your thoughts and understanding. Note, however,...

October 23, 2022 A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 47 excerpt)

Story 47 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

We used to drive to Toronto every Christmas vacation to spend
the holidays with my grandmother. It was about 250 miles
away, two-lane blacktop all the way. Our means of conveyance
was at first a Prefect and later a Vanguard, both inexpensive,
four-cylinder British imports with all the fire power of a lawn
mower with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome....

Story 46 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

For many years I faithfully sat two hours a day. This was
my formal meditation practice. Two hours a day is a lot of
meditation, I thought. I was wrong. Two hours a day is a lot of
practice, but it is not a lot of meditation. Meditation cannot be
measured....

October 16, 2022 A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 45 excerpt)

Story 45 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

Without the ability to silently sit alone in a darkened room,
we are destined to be a slave to our conditioned mind, reacting
to self-imposed habitual preconditions, convinced that
everything out there is awesome and everyone else is as happy
as kings. So why, you wonder, am I so miserable? I have lost
count of the number of times in a given day I start a sentence
with...

Story 44 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

Happiness is not something to pursue. Like the truth,
happiness too is not out there somewhere. Chasing it is like a
dog trying to catch its tail. Happiness has been hijacked by old
habit patterns which have convinced us to look for it under the
bright lights. We are so busy frantically...

Story 43 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

The question remains, however, why is practice so difficult?
To begin with, doing non-doing is by and of itself difficult
because to be still and just watch goes against our very nature.
This is especially true when...

October 02, 2022 A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 41 excerpt)

Story 41 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

You need to walk before you run. This much is certain. There
is an old joke of a tourist lost in New York City who asked a
passerby how to get to Carnegie Hall. He was told, “Practice,
my boy, practice.” This process can appear to be slow going. This
is quite normal, as the progress is incremental. (And meditation
practice redefines incremental.) It can seem at times...

“You’ve got to learn your instrument. Then, you practice,
practice, practice. And then, when you finally get up there
on the bandstand, forget all that and just wail.” This was the
great jazz saxophonist, Charlie Parker’s, musical lesson. But

September 23, 2022 A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 39 excerpt)

Story 39 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.

My father would go apoplectic when he was near gum chewers.
He would physically recoil as they mashed away in complete
obliviousness to the consternation they were causing him.
Though I didn’t understand the reason for his meltdowns, over
time I absorbed his attitude. Each time some unsuspecting
gum smacker tried to engage my father in a conversation, I
could feel my father do a slow burn. Like a tuning fork hearing
a note played on a piano, I would commiserate with him, and
my habit patterning would...
