Om Om
IFIf you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you But make allowance for their doubting too, If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream--and not make dreams your master, If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools: If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son! --Rudyard Kipling

NAMASTE
Sanskrit nama? means "bow, obeisance, reverential salutation, adoration". te is the dative of the personal pronoun tvam, "you". A literal translation of nama? te is thus "reverential salutation to you".
It is commonly accompanied by a slight bow made with the hands pressed together, palms touching, in front of the chest.
In a religious context this word can be taken to mean any of these:
* The Spirit in me meets the same Spirit in you
* I greet that place where you and I are one.
* I salute the divine in you
* I salute the Light of God in you.
* I bring together my body and soul, focusing my divine potential, and bow to the same potential within you.
* I bow to the divine in you.
* I recognize that within each of us is a place where Divinity dwells, and when we are in that place, we are One.
In other words, it recognizes the equality of all, and pays honor to the sacredness and interconnection of all, as well as to the source of that interconnection.
Namaskar is the term for such greetings, but is not used as a greeting itself.
Namaste can also mean "Here we are" from the Greek "?a ?µaste".
Origins
"Namaste" is sometimes used in the context of practicing Yoga as a greeting or goodbye, generally taken as an expression of good will. Namaste is sometimes misinterpreted as a greeting associated with Yoga only, but it is much more widely used than that in South Asia, particularly in greeting elders. Moreover, it is used throughout Asia, especially in the context of Buddhism or Buddhist cultures, even though it is known by different names in some languages.
Namaste is a Hindi word, and hence has widespread use in North India where Hindi and its dialects are the languages spoken. Gassho is the term used in Japanese contexts for the hand-gesture, and for the wider bowing, as a whole. In Thailand, the gesture is known as wai (pronounced "why" with a rising tone).

Brian Lucas aka Chef BeLive Light, has been creating gourmet live cuisine for 10 years. He originally was "turned on" to live cuisine in 1996 by his children's mother, Lee Whitney McKinney, who had been into raw foods since 1986. They co-owned Organica: The Living Cuisine with in San Francisco 1999-2000 after buying the restaurant from Juliano Brotman, the author of Raw: The Uncook Book.

Jeremy co-wrote The Raw Truth: The Art of Loving Foods with Renee and he wrote The Raw Truth: The Art of Preparing Living Foods and The Raw Foods Resource Guide.

I'm a high energy person, utilizing it to work productively on projects I love and party consciously! It's awesome because they coincide together often. I am a naturalist and was given an exceptional gift and taste for raw living vegan cuisine in 1998. I sing, play saxophone and the guitar and love music with all of my heart. I practice Quantum Touch and have also channeled a hands on and off healing modality of energy/body work that was downloaded by the Divine Energy Source/God. I am driven by health, wellness, love, light and the arts. I am a song/screenwriter, musician, writer and producer. I have a bunch of erotic art tattoos derived from many different time periods, countries and cultures, I love them. For exercise I enjoy doing Power Yoga, Skateboarding, Snowboarding, Surfing, tennis and racketball. More aspects of my life I LIVE FOR are my practices of meditation, kundalini yoga and tantric yoga. I am a reverend of my own faith which is the "COME TOGETHER ALL AS ONE THROUGH LOVE". If I was asked what religion or denomination that I was a part of, I would start by saying that there is good and bad everywhere.. In every family, community, government, religion, tribe, etc. I have met good loving-heart felt individuals in almost every walk that I've personally found, even Republicans and Witches. I am a light bearer of all Dimensions and Universes from God and I am here with a cosmic diplomatic immunity to be one of the beings to change in a positive manner and I have NO FEAR in doing so. I'm very in touch with a lot of my past lives and couldn't have come to any of these realizations and awareness without them. I have cut all cords, ties and connections to any of them at this point to truly live in the NOW moving forward. I wear as much organic cotton and environment friendly fashionable clothes as possible. There ARE fashionable conscious clothes. I am a very serious music/film lover as you might already assume. The most precious beings in my life are two of the most amazing, energetic, wonderful, hilarious and open minded children that I could possibly ask for and Adore'. I love them all so much and luckily they love me equally as well. I am very thankful for them and have learned so much from them. I have manifested the woman of my dreams and we are in perfect alignment with where we are going. I am blessed to have connected with her. I co-created a cleanse with my friend Howard that is a raw version of the Master Cleanser called The Light Cleanse, you can find it on my website www.belivelight.com and in my new book Orgasm of the Taste Buds. I am always up for meeting new people that are of high integrity, loving, sweet or more simply put "REAL"! I shed many blessings upon you and send much love from my heart to yours for your soul's well being! PLEASE practice creating good Karma for yourself by doing unto others they way you would expect to be treated and by having compassion for all brothers and sisters!
