A lot has been happening with me, but I don't want to write too much both because the energy gets dissipated, also other reasons. Nevertheless i will write in private and reply if people ask. But basicallty I will probably be spending much less time on the internet. So if I don't reply straight away that's why.
Later I will write more.
Now something I can talk about . I've been busy and haven't had tiome for any writing in the last few weeks, but this morning I've been going over some of the later chapters in my book. The early chapters (which I have done the most work on) are fine but the later ones are still very disorganised. There are three or four half written former book projects all jumbled up, and because i'm tired of all this academic stuff i want to merge them together into one big academic book, on Integral Metaphysics and Transformation, and this will be my opus and contribution to the Integral Movement.
Then when it is completed i can work on other writing prjects (and maybe also before it's completed)
This material in these later book chapters dates from my "Integralist" period. How dated my consciousness then now seems! That doesn't mean I'm going to scrap what I wrote; there is still a lot of good stuff there. Even though I was writing from a more limited perspective, the mental being still produced good material.
The funny thing is, if I felt then (say 2006-7) how I feel now, I wouldn't 've gotten involved in the Integral Movement the way I did. For taht matter there is a lot I would have done differently on the net in any case. But what the Buddhists say is right; we are straeams of conscioousness that change from moment to moment. Even my website includes layers of development that have been deposited, like sedimentary layers of rocks, withe ach stratum represtening a different stage in the development of consciousness.
This is why I also want to revise, and are in the process of revising, my Kheper site; again like the book keeping the old stuff, but just organising it a bit differently.
