May we exist like a lotus, at home in the muddy water ~ Thus we bow to life as it is.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Dalai Lama, Thich Nhat Hanh, Thai Forest Monks, Pema Chödrön. Would like to share a little time with some dharma teachers that I'm familiar with in the Bay area and Geri Larkin. Also would just love to meet Ellen Degeneres. And one-of-these-days.... and a long-time wish to get to Yoshi's and enjoy some good Jazz... one of these days!!!! * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ This video is so beautiful! (especially if you click the full-screen option)~ It includes some wonderful photographs of HH Dalai Lama and more. Please, sit back, relax, and enjoy! * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * Qigong - Health ~ Moving Chi ~ This 3 minute video (BELOW) is an excerpt from a wonderful DVD titled "Qigong Beginning Practice" with Francesco and Daisy Lee-Garripoli. It's a great 2-disk set with one being an in-depth documentary on the origins and scientific evidence of its power to heal, relieve and prevent common illnesses. The other disk is clear and beautiful instructions on the gentle flowing movements and deep breathing rhythms and visualization techniques enhancing the flow of qi (chi), the energy that fuels the body, mind and spirit. This is one of the best instructional videos I have come across and just thought I'd share this great find with others. Peace and Health to You! * *
