Doylinski. Anachronistic - one from a former age that is incongruous with the present. Yet not a true believer in transmigration of the soul. Quite pragmatic. And dogmatic only about not being dogmatic.

In-situ Salutations and Greetings invivo

Hello Friends and Strangers and Curious types,

What gives with the title?

One, I am singular, alone (mostly and hopefully, not infused with loneliness). I have in the first statement created the duality. The first sentence and the first paradox. As in one with everything. (no, not how you order your hotdog) . If I am one with everything then I am part of everything and the quality of oneness is non-sensical and no longer an appropriate descriptive attribute.

Two. Paradox. One needs two "things" to create the conflict inherent in paradox. I have gained much experience in the healing arts. Perhaps fifty thousand times over the last fifteen odd years I have asked, "Hello, I'm Dr. Doyle, how can I help you?". Performing (as) healing artist, indeed, one on one, soul to soul. And yet, I find myself as one slightly frayed cog in a giant self-aggrandizing/absorbed/perpetuating machine known by some and felt by many as the "medical-pharmaceutical-insurance-industrial-complex". Ergo a pair of doctors - me the artist, me the cog yes-man.

Script: now and here is a place for my oft conflicted musings, non-sequiters, etc.
Dispense: as much as you and I can take
Sig: take with a huge grain of salt, tongue firmly planted in cheek and perhaps on an empty stomach.

"The art of living is letting paradox be" - Richard Freeman, Astanga Persona Extra-ordinaire, in some yoga workshop somewhere at sometime.
