About me: These days, I'm writing my dissertation, teaching several courses at the university, and volunteering for the Isha Foundation. Elena and I maintain an Isha group on MySpacehttp://groups.myspace.com/IshaYoga. Then again, the official Isha sitewww.ishafoundation.org is very nice. Taking a new step, we've decided to move from Germany to Ukraine at the end of July, stay for a couple months, and then move to India for a semester. All's well with us, and although I'm sure we'll miss Heidelberg and its people, we're looking forward to the year ahead. After India, we plan to move to settle down in the States. Whew! but it's amazing stuff.

Who I'd like to meet: Oh, I'd still like to meet Eckhart Tolle and my half-sister Keri.
Our lives have been very busy lately. We've lost touch. How are you? Are you now teaching at the Isha Home School? I sometimes really miss it. Other times... lol... But it's all good. Such an amazing experience to get to live there, though.
No matter which direction we choose or the many steps we take, as we walk here side by side, hand within hand, soaring surely into the future: there is no way the day will fail us.

Even though we are miles apart and will most likely never meet, I want you to know how remarkable it
is to able to communcicate with you in such way and at such a time. I value you and your words!
Shine on! The world needs you! Love, faeryfay xoxo
Yes, I'm happy about finally getting the slideshows up. : ) And I'll check out how to do the rotation on iphoto later on. (I wish I'd asked some more people before I did all the slides! lol...) As B. commented, "Wow, India really IS on the other side of the world." lol... Thanks~ e
I had read this poem by Sadhjuru about a year ago, but after BSP I jsut really get it now, check it out, its on my page too..... me and ME...... The implish me, And the absolute ME....... Many think is a contradiction, but I prefer complement..... my love, my joy, my laughter and my play, but a facade to cover the absolute stillness that I am........ my words and songs, my smiles and my mirth are but a ploy to entrap you in my limitless void........ Both men and Gods were made in this void...O'Beloved if you dare, come Dissolve...... Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, Isha Yoga
Nice to hear from you. I've been in CA these past weeks... Beautiful out there. As per your question - I do enjoy teaching here in the states. The children always know when I've just finished shoonya. I've noticed they come up and want hugs if I've just meditated! But I do love my kids here as I did the ones in India. I'd like to get an internet conference between the kids in India and my kids here at one of my schools. We did that with some school children in Australia. It was really cool. I'm not at all technologically inclined, but maybe you could help set this up when you get there (and after you've gotten adjusted!) School's out for summer here now, though.

Thanks for the request and for supporting Ms. Roy!
"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy
Most High Almighty Good Lord, Yours are praise, glory, honor and all blessings; To You alone! Most High, do they belong, and no man is worthy of speaking Your Name!
Be praised, Lord, with all Your creatures, and above all our Brother Sun, who gives us the day by which You light our way, and who is beautiful, radiant and with his great splendor is a symbol to us of You, O Most High!
And be praised, Lord, for our Sister Moon and the Stars. You created them in the heavens bright, precious and beautiful!
And be praised, Lord, for our Brother the Wind and for the air and the clouds and for fair weather and for all other through which You sustain Your creatures.
And be praised, Lord, for our Sister Water, so useful, and humble, and chaste!
And be praised, my Lord, for our Brother Fire, through whom You light up the night and who is handsome, joyful, robust, and strong!
And be praised, my Lord, for our Sister, Mother Earth, who supports and carries us and produces the diverse fruits and colorful flowers and trees!
Praise and bless the Lord and give thanks to Him and serve Him with great humility!
Be praised, my Lord, for our Sister, bodily Death from whom no living man can escape!
Woe only to those who die in mortal sin; but blessed are those who have done Your most holy will; for the second death can cause them no harm!
