There was an experience the author
had about age eight or nine that reflected an ability that he
assumed everyone had. It is the power to focus one’s attention and
awareness to observe and to know things about a situation and what
lies behind the surface. The ability first consciously surfaced as a
result of a 1950's Television show. While watching an episode of The
Lone Ranger, he was intrigued by the tracking ability of Tonto, the
Native American partner of the Lone Ranger. Tonto and the Lone
Ranger were trying to catch an outlaw. Tonto got down off his horse
and examined the hoof prints of the outlaws horse. He then looked up
at the Lone Ranger and said it was so many days ago that the tracks
were made. As a young child, the author was both fascinated and
puzzled how such information could be known.
Several days later, the author was walking to school and crossed a
railroad crossing that had two sets of rails. One set of rails were
bright and shinny reflecting daily use of the rails. The other set
of rails was a passing track and rarely used. They were very rusty
and covered with a thick dark orange iron oxide - except in one part
that had a bright orange oxide. It was clear a train passed over
those rarely used rails quite recently. Maybe as recently as two or
three days earlier.
In a flash the author understood weathering and how by simple
observation of conditions one can determine that passage of time
since an event happened. He know how Tonto did what he did and he
knew he knew how to do it in any situation. There was a deep and
profound awareness about time and how things change in time. It was
years before he could explain what he knew and how he knew it. It
was years before he had the life experiences that give rise to
explaining what he knew. Yet, he knew, and he knew he knew how to
use it. He knew if he asked a question he could see into things to
get the answer even when he had no understanding what so ever as to
where to look or go to get the understanding. He knew he would be
drawn to the understanding. It was a talent he always had.
This ability became quite useful as an inspector. It was also
responsible for some very powerful insights in the situation
described in the discussion “The
Unfolding Flower - A Perspective on Health and Healing.” Yet,
this ability is available to each of us and is the basis of the
detached witness which we all are capable of learning to become.
