Updating the Blogs

My Google blog, “Rants, Prejudices, and Earthly Delights” now has 13 entries. Here are the titles, which may give the reader a feel for what the book is like:

1.Too Cynical Is Never Cynical Enough
2.Three Eternal Truths
3.Expect Nothing
4.Sex and Subsistence
5.The World Is Not as We Think It Is
6.Our Reality Is Inside Our Heads
7.Pleasure, Pain and Drugs
8.The War System
9.Consciousness
10.Free Will
11.Infinities
12.Doubt and the 10,000 Things
13.Nothing Is Real

The idea (so far) is a book entitled “Look Out Kid, They Keep It All Hid” (Bob Dylan) with the theme “The World Is Not as We Think It Is.” It is a cynical look at the human predicament with evidence from science, history and religion.


Meanwhile, my yoga blog Yoga: Sacred and Profane is thirteen chapters and an introduction long. The last two chapters, still concerned with the physical health aspects of yoga, are on asana (finally!). One of the purposes of Yoga: Sacred and Profane is to introduce practitioners of hatha yoga to the spiritual, psychological and historic aspects of yoga. I am still less than halfway through the book.
