Hello Y'all :-)

[fwellers]

Hi folks,
Just making a quick intro to this fine forum. I admit I haven't read many threads yet, but the few I did browse leaves me with a good impression of some honest, open minded and kind hearted people here. I will be honored to listen and occasionally contribute.

I basically found Steve's blog and this forum while googling 'the power of now', which, btw, is my favorite book in the world. :-))

Been a seeker of spiritual truth for a long long time. Eggy's books ( Eggy is the affectionate name that a co-worker and I use when referring to Eckart Tolle ) resonate so well with me that I can't get enough. I do try to practice the power of presence.

On a philisophical side, I love the fact that he is so non-dogmatic, as I am FINALLY at the point in my life where I leave dogma and anything that smells of dogma or religion, in the dust. If I have one peeve ( I've probably got more than one :-))) ) , it is with dogmatic and fundy type religious beliefs like the christianity that I finally escaped from.

Anyway, that was a bit more than I intended for a short intro, I guess I can be a little long winded.

Thanks for the forum. See ya around the funny papers.

I like the name Eggy! Seems to fit.

I like what you said about Dogma. People get so caught up in the trivialities sometimes they they forget about the important stuff: Living with love.

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Thanks for the welcome Dan. I appreciate it.
Yup, there's lots I can learn hanging around here.

I like Ghandi's quote. Here's one for ya.
Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction. Pascal
