What is a Practice?

What is a Practice?
An exercise which tugs, nudges and invites us along the Dharma path.

Can I invent my own personal Practice?
Uh oh. (This is a dangerous question.)

NO. Because what if you think your Practice is enlightening, but actually you're practicing to put your head where the sun don't shine.

YES. Because only YOU know the right and true nature of your world, and only YOU receive direct guidance from your inner guru.

NO. Because you are basically an ignorant schmuck. 

YES. Because there is a Universal Force, like gravity or magnetism, which attracts all sentient beings to Enlightenment. (The force is with you.)

OK. I discovered a new Practice, by listening to Susan on the WhatsApp group. It's called:

REBOOT!!! 

Just like on a dang computer.
But reboot to what? 
Zero
Power up
Where everything starts
NOW!

Reboot to the Present Moment
Where the past is hazy memories
Where the future is fuzzy guesswork
Where NOW reigns supreme

As if you were just teleported from Nowhere
To this weird place and this moment.
And given an unknown mind with Karma.
Take a breath.

Then Watch… 
As Samsara (the Real World) 
Fades into fog (does it?)
And rebuilds itself.
