Celebrating Life in Bali!

The New Year has exploded in life. It all started with the destruction of evil in the Ogoh-Ogoh parade, followed by Nyepi, the silent day.

Worldwide Common Creation Myths? Dragons, Snakes, Gods, Virgins, Tree of Life?

Why do creation stories somehow match across the globe? How can distant cultures share the same myth of dragons, snakes, giant Gods, virgins, and the tree of life?

Homage to Rudi on his Birthday

The day I met Rudi, he was standing quietly in the kitchen doorway. There was something different about this man. His eyes twinkled with intense energy, as if it wasn’t quite contained in his small, rotund body. We approached the door, and I remember clinging to the corner elbow of my husband’s jacket out of fear to meet someone so expansive, yet so humble. He was bigger than life, standing right before my eyes. He just said hello politely and invited us into the class. I was 23 years old. It was 1972. After the meditation class we had dinner…

AVOID: Top 3 Foods of Inflammation & Heart Disease

Let your slurry sit in a warm place for a few hours. It will harden into the most perfect rubbery superglue.
