I would like to pose a series of questions to those of you who might read this book. Imagine what it might be like to go alone to a different country, stay in a rustic one-room cabin in the woods near the sea, and become disengaged from the phone, e-mail, the Internet, and even the TV and to do this for an extended period of time. What might you do? What might happen to you? This is the story of such an experience.
I went north to Canada in an open-hearted spirit of seeking. I carried with me a meditation practice, a spiritual mind-set, the knowledge of sixty-some years of living and little else. I desired to live a basically simple and simply basic life for several weeks during three separate seasons.
For the first time in my life, I learned how it feels and what it means to stop. Little Dipper is a memoir of that experience and of some of the surprises that occurred when I let go into the present moment.
