About Me

I wouldnt normally post this stuff...but its pretty dead on...
You Are an Old Soul
You are an experienced soul who appreciates tradition.
Mellow and wise, you like to be with others but also to be alone.
Down to earth, you are sensible and impatient.
A creature of habit, it takes you a while to warm up to new people.
You hate injustice, and you're very protective of family and friends
A bit demanding, you expect proper behavior from others.
Extremely independent you don't mind living or being alone.
But when you find love, you tend to want marriage right away.
Souls you are most compatible with: Warrior Soul and Visionary Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?
Your Dosha is Pitta
You have a quick mind, a gift for persuasion, and a sharp sense of humor.
You have both the drive and people skills to be a very successful leader.
Argumentative and a bit stubborn, you have been known to be a little too set in your ways.
But while you may be biased toward your own point of view, you are always honest, fair, and ethical.
With friends: You are outgoing and open to anyone who might want to talk to you
In love: You are picky but passionate
To achieve more balance: Be less judgmental of those around you, and take cool walks in the moonlight. What's Your Dosha?RACHMAN ben RACHMANIM (a compassionate descendant of compassionate ancestors)"Some people say I'm a dreamer...but I'm not the only one." I am religious, or if that word scares you, "spiritual." I am idealistic in general, though practical too, looking to the future by turning to the past, to simpler times, when people were more in tune with the earth, the cycles of nature, and were more perceptive to the voice of the divine. For religious, ethical and health reasons I do not drink alcohol and abide by a vegetarian diet (see the blog). If the body is healthy and clean, the mind sharp, then the soul is happy and we are more open to, and in touch with, the divinity all around us, and we proceed more easily towards a state of enlightenment. I see relationships as sacred and am extremely devoted as I hold them to the highest ideals. I cannot live without music, particularly Jazz, Gypsy and roots music...I love nuance in all things...love fine teas, and the smell of sandalwood, healthy food, farmer's markets and yoga....ultimately I want little more than to live my life righteously, with peace, to learn, laugh, and love, raise wise and righteous children, make some beautiful music, praise the Most High and see the world and leave it in a better state than that in which I found it...Tho not necessarily in that order...Blessings...
