Dice Living

[TheSongsofDistantEarth]

Anyone ever try this? There was a novel, a kind of a cult-book in the 70's called 'The Dice Man',

followed up by a book called 'The Book of the Die', both by Luke Rhineheart that described a way

of living using a roll of the dice to decide between six different possible courses of action that you have

predetermined. Whatever the dice comes up with, you must do. They are all things one would possibly do, but it's especially desirable if there are some possibilities that one has been wanting to do but is afraid of. Would definitely take you out of the usual habit-patterns and decision-making that create ruts in behavior and in life possibilities.

 

I haven't done it (yet). It would make a really fascinating journal for someone to post online. The psycho-spiritual implications are obvious. It seems very Taoist to me.

 

Here' a link that explains more:
