ENTRELACS

From the essential experiences:
blueberries, forgotten corners of rooms, dust in sunbeams, liminal states, sleepless nights, sitting still, insight meditation , breathing, the smell of wet earth in a dark forest, forgetting any concept of culture, remembering before i was born, thinking about existence without humans, old and overlooked places...

From the paradoxical human and media sources:
soundtracks of tarkowsky and jodorowsky that each in their own way 'seeded' my will to create, that elusive feeling of a good song (such as from bert jansch, clive palmer, anne briggs, roy harper, sandy denny, simon finn, vashti bunyan, scott walker, and so many others), the more 'stoned' minimalists, music that CREATES experiences, watching black and white movie on a small old tv late at night, long conversations after coincidental meetings, the sounds of a scratchy radio in remote places...

Current Items of contemplation:
see my blog for Adi Shankarachya and some small view at Shri Nisgardatta Maharaj - for more info see: www.advaita.org

trying to conceive of how I might get back to the GURUKUL school I was accepted in see: dhrupad.org - and digesting the 10 days I spent with the Gundecha Brothers and the other resident students - a whole new ear at harmonic rations is growing...

where can one end up in this world - when one is living in the in-between - perhaps i stop looking?

a kind word about what i do
