Morality - It doesn't take a gift from heaven

"The morality of humanity, 

Here long before Christianity, 

Yet Christianity must claim insanity, 

as it's need to claim Morality."

By Winston Watts

How to meditate... without Faith.

How to Meditate

Sam Harris finished off his brilliant book "The End of Faith" with a great chapter on Eastern meditation, a spiritual yet reasonable insight, that many Atheists, myself included, have a keen interest.  I have dabbled in Yoga and flirted with the basics of meditation, always with a hopeful eye on finding a spiritual yet genuine way of dealing with anxiety and depression, but a way that is still grounded in reason.  Sam Harris in his recent blog How to Meditate, this time, goes one step further, and suggests a technique called Vipassana (Pali, "insight"), which comes from the oldest tradition of Buddhism, the Theravada.  I just may have found my spiritual practice?   Read for yourself... and "Don't fall!".
