I love music and like music from various genres depending on my mood and the necessary intent. My favorite kind of music has yet to be invented -- but it's coming soon... 2/26/07: In response to those who have asked me to elaborate on the music of the future: It sounds like it's coming from another planet and yet paradoxically, like you've been familiar with it since the beginning of time... It draws on the best rhythms and melodies from all continents and cultures through out history bringing them together in a stew yet to be tasted, and new spices are added as well... It is holistic and integral, touching you in all 7 chakras, from the crown chakra all the way to the root chakra, bringing about a profound degree of transformation and transcendence... It transports you somewhere else beyond this earthly dimension and when you return you are different then when you left... never quite the same again... It reminds you who you really are... It touches your spirit and you begin to recognize yourself in every sound, every note in the universe... Universe means one song...It's healing... Righteous...It opens you up... Seeps in to your pores... Reminds you of the importance of LOVE... The Heart... The journey of life... and the Peace of the SoulThe beginning is not really the beginning and the end is not really the end... Just ongoing chapters and verses that float through the sky like clouds....There is always a level of spontaneity and improv to this music and yet a familiar rhythm whose roots run deep in our collective tribal DNA... It reaches for the sky but is rooted in the earth...It embraces all parts of ourselves... The spiritual... And the primal...The Past... The Present... And summons in to Being the rhythms and cultural movements yet to come...You know that magic state of consciousness right before you fall asleep? Sometimes you can hear it there... I'm getting sleepy... Sing me a lullaby

MOST IMPORTANT -THE BOOK OF LIFE, The True Teacher
...And with all objectivity I must say this is a book I highly recommend...:)
I draw a lot of inspiration from children and also from Elders, in particular my wonderful and beautiful 6 year old son- Gio
As well as some great friends
I draw great inspiration from the natural world -- Trees - Oceans - Mountains, Stars and Moons and Planets spinning in space - Animals and insects..
I get far more inspiration from these sources than from a politician or Hollywood celebrity.
