A few words on why this exists.
Still Lantern is a record of ongoing practice, not a finished teaching. These essays are notes from meditation and from paying closer attention to ordinary life, written mostly to work something out for myself, in the hope that naming it clearly might be useful to someone else in similar territory.
I'm not a teacher. I'm someone trying to see how a mind actually works, my own, and writing down what seems to hold up.
If any of this is familiar, I'd like to hear from you.
