Still Alice, With Love

Still Alice, With Love
Still Alice is a moving and beautifully acted
(by Julianne Moore and Kristen Stuart) film and
it keeps reverberating around my brainpan. It
reminded me of my old grannie who in her 90s
seemed to live almost totally in the Now.
Fortunately, Gram had the care she seemed to need
and want, and a pretty good end.

Still Alice also calls to mind other fine films
about the individual and familial terrors and
travails, breakthroughs and breakdowns of
Alzheimers Disease, like Leaving Iris, A
Separation, and Away from Her. Anyone
interested in this all too ubiquitous human
condition would do well to ponder these artful
and informative stories, as well as consider what
possible prophylactic measures and medications,
or alternative modalities and supplements, might
help relieve the onset of memory-loss and
associated symptomology. May I dare to wonder
if learning to live entirely in the moment, in a
mind-full and centered, focused way, could help
people approaching such challenging
endof-lucidity conditions? This is something I
think Im going to look into, from the
attention-training and mental-cultivation, mental
health and wellness point of view. I have found
that what we call in (Tibetan) nowness-awareness
is the ultimate form of therapy, freeing me from
past and future conditioning and self-stories,
somewhat similar to memory-loss but more akin to
egolessness and transparent openness and inner
luminosity. Whether this would be a bane, curse,
both, or neitheronly time and Knowledge can
tell. Article Source - http//lamasuryadas.skyro
