Books
Books are my passion (perhaps even obsession)...yet, as Schopenhauer said, we carry our books in a bag thrown over our shoulder as we try to climb the ladder; at some point you have to let the bag drop before you can go any higher.
Heroes
Joseph Campbell...without doubt at the top of my list...
The list goes on.... Ramakrishna, Bhagavan Das, Schopenhauer, Ken Wilber, Peter Singer, Krishnamurti, Aurobindo, P.D. Ouspensky, Maurice Nicoll, Lama Anagarika Govinda, Alan Watts, Ludwig Wittgenstein, W.V.O. Quine, all the religious pluralists who came before me (such as William James, Gandhi, and John Hicks) and let's not forget Ram Das...see him discus LSD, society, and unity...

Some Personal History:
After completing my studies in philosopy, concentrating on ethics and religious pluralism, at California State, Long Beach, I began teaching. I found the most meaningful message I could deliver to my students was about bliss...as Joseph Campbell offers so eloquently:
Hello my friend how are you doing? well i am sorry for not write you you for very long time.... hope you dont mind, the truth is that i got some of my own problem and thats why i am not on the mood to talk to any one... anyway i am ok now... well i just wanna say hello to you and wish you a good day... talk to you soon. regards Tashi PS if you have facebook, you can add me there with this email address tashi.d.tsering@gmail.com i use facebook for personal stuff no political....
Hope your New Year is off to a delightful start. Namaste.
Bev Doolittle's 'Season of the Eagle'
"You are me and I am you. It is obvious that we are inter-are. You cultivate the flower in yourself so that I will be beautiful. I transform the garbage in myself so that you do not have to suffer. I support you you support me. I am here to bring you peace you are here to bring me joy." - Thich Naht Hahn
All is in the breath - and now that I can do this deeply I can appreciate the complexity of layers of each experience - Hey! did you know I love this life and having you back in it!!!
