About Me

I AM
"The love for all living creatures is the most noble
attribute of man."
Charles Darwin
"Humanity's true moral test, its fundamental test, consists
of its attitude toward those who are at its mercy:
animals. And in this respect, human kind has suffered a
fundamental debacle, a debacle so fundamental that all
others stem from it. "
Milan Kundera, (The Unbearable Lightness of Being)
"Let none think to fly the danger for
soon or late love is his own avenger."
Lord Byron
"One grand great life throbs through earth's giant heart,
And mighty waves of single Being roll
From nerve-less germ to man, for we are part
Of every rock and bird and beast and hill,
One with the things that prey on us, and one with what we kill."
Oscar Wilde
"Nature does nothing uselessly."
Aristotle
"What we are doing to the forests of the world is
but a mirror reflection of what we are doing
to ourselves and to one another."
Mahatma Gandhi
"I recognise that to view the Earth as if it were alive is just a convenient,
but different, way of organising the facts of the Earth.
I am of course prejudiced in favour of Gaia and have filled my life for the
past twenty-five years with the thought that Earth may be alive:
not as the ancients saw her—a sentient Goddess with a purpose and foresight—
but alive like a tree. A tree that quietly exists, never moving except to sway
in the wind, yet endlessly conversing with the sunlight and the soil.
Using sunlight and water and nutrient minerals to grow and change.
But all done so imperceptibly, that to me the old oak tree on the green
is the same as it was when I was a child."
James Lovelock
"Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water.
If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle.
You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot.
Now, water can flow or it can crash.
Be water my friend."
Bruce Lee

My Interests


Ashes and Snow-- Gregory Colbert

"A lover asked his beloved, Do you love yourself more than you love me?
Beloved replied, I have died to myself and I live for you.
I've disappeared from myself and my attributes,
I am present only for you.
I've forgotten all my learnings,
but from knowing you I've become a scholar.
I've lost all my strength, but from your power I am able.
I love myself...I love you.
I love you...I love myself."

From the "A Gift of Love" CD
Deepak Chopra-Music inspired by
The love poems of Rumi

I sent my Soul through the Invisible,
Some letter of that After-life to spell,
And by and by my Soul returned to me,
And answered "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell."
Omar Khayyam

"Be kind and merciful. Let no one ever come
to you without coming away better and happier.
Be the living expression of God's kindness:
kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes,
kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
In the slums we are the light of God's kindness to the poor.
To children, to the poor, to all who suffer
and are lonely, give always a happy smile -
Give them not only your care, but also your heart."
Mother Teresa

"Teach this triple truth to all:
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life
of service and compassion are the things
which renew humanity."
Buddha

Keep your heart always lit..

"How long wilt thou dwell on words and superficialities?
A burning heart is what I want; consort with burning!
Kindle in thy heart the flame of love,
And burn up utterly thoughts and fine expressions.
O Moses! The lovers of fair rites are one class,
They whose hearts and souls burn with love are another."
Rumi

"All things come out of the One
and the One out of all things."
Heraclitus

Spirituality, Art, Litterature, Photography, Dance, Music, Martial Arts, and much more..I am open to learn and see new things. I have no special preferences. I listen to all sorts of music..like all sorts of styles in art, dance and read just about any good book I can get my hands on.

"What spirit is so empty and blind,
that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot
is more noble than the shoe, and skin more beautiful
than the garment with which it is clothed?"
Michelangelo
