I am here for Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

Ware Soku Kami Nari. (I am a Divine Being)
Jinrui Soku Kami Nari. (Everyone is a Divine Being)
I play violin - I can play many, many kinds of music on the violin. I enjoy creating with others but I primarily am playing Mexican mariachi as I have for the last 14 years, because that what my band plays: www.mariachilosamigos.com
I haven't experimented with other musicians since 2000 when I moved back to Washington, DC. I miss the openess and freedom of spirit I found in people in California. I think that the culture (more than the climate) of the east coast makes people hide themselves.
I completed Tasks For Divine Beings (Shinjin) , an activity of The Byakko Shinko Kai.
I was attuned to Usui Reiki I in February 2005, Reiki II in February 2006, and Reiki III in June 2007. I seek to receive and give spiritual energy through compassion toward other souls in our troubled world.

I'd like to meet:

I DO NOT WISH TO MEET ANYONE IN PERSON WHO IS UNDER 21. I DO NOT WISH TO MEET ANYONE OF ANY AGE UNLESS WE HAVE ESTABLISHED THAT WE HAVE MUTUAL INTERESTS AND PLAN TO GET TOGETHER SAFELY.

I'D LOVE TO COMMUNICATE WITH ANYONE OF ANY AGE, ESPECIALLY --

People searching for peace and harmony in life, musicians and other creative artists, long board surfers, skateboarders, spiritually awake people with a mission to awaken others, Women who conduct ritual, people who attune to the Goddess, People who have consciously redefined themselves. People who like digital video making and editing who can teach me techniques. Massage and Reiki practitioners and those who practice other froms of healing - especially those who want to help servicemen returning from Iraq and victims of all wars, violence, and cruelty.

What is important is LOVE.

Mariachi, Chase Frank, Lili De La Mora, New Age, and just about everthing else produced by humanity... .. .."425" height="350" ..

Movies:

"Aftermath" by U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Jack Lewis,
"In 2004, the NEA created Operation Homecoming to help U.S. troops and their families write about their wartime experiences. Through this program, some of America's most distinguished writers conducted workshops at military installations and contributed to educational resources to help the troops and their families share their stories. In addition to those works published in the anthology, all of the writing submitted by the troops will be preserved in an open, national government archive."
