Boundless is-ness always flowing

time out of linear mind

still flowing

over the stones

in the stream

The Algonquin word “Patuxent” means water running over smooth pebbles.

traditional peoples around the world had a different relation with time than our relation to dominant modern time

we can adhere to both quantifiable linear and boundless non-directional concepts of time

a commodity to be managed or an ever-present transience

both efficient in their own ways: a flowing form of duality within the formless timeless whole

needing to go by both past/present/future linear time and wanting to be totally ‘in the moment’

when keeping time by discrete units of measure and beats

we can still can be with what is — the boundless is-ness always flowing

flowing from stillness

or from an earthly perspective

revolving like the phases of the moon

be with me

you died a long time ago and were reborn
