    Ray's Interests
GeneralI have a very strong interest in religion. I consider myself a Buddhist, but I also enjoy attending a Unitarian Universalist Church. I love directing plays and musicals. My best experience has been directing You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown. The cast was so awesome! I love movies (all types), reading, writing, hanging out with friends, and going to the Theatre. I'm currently writing a script for a short film, The Holy Rug. Here's a skit with a friend of mine, Natalia. It's done by a group, ITTV, out of New York. The skit is, "The Facts of Life". Check it out. ..

   Ray's Blurbs
About me:
Well, what can I say about myself? I am a Vajrayana Buddhist practitioner of the Drikung Kagyu lineage. I took refuge on Sunday, April 23, 2006. My refuge master is Traga Rinpoche, a highly realized Tibetan Buddhist lama.Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting October 19th, 2007, was a very special day. I received my root master. His name is Drupon Thinley Ningpo Rinpoche. Here is a brief bio. From an early age, Drupon Thinley Ningpo natural inclination towards religion developed into a determination to pursue higher spiritual studies. With his father's encouragement, Drupon Thinley entered Brong-ngur Monastery, and became a student of the eminent Buddhist scholar, Lama Kedrub Siddhi Rinpoche. While studying at Brong-ngur, he met the great yogi and scholar, Drubwang Pachung Rinpoche in Drikung Thil, the sublime seat of Drikung Kagyü Order. As a result, he had the great fortune to receive the profound essence instructions in the practice and mastery of the peerless Mahamudra. In 1988, Drupon Ningpo went on a pilgrimage to the sacred places of Western Tibet and took advantage of a fortuitous opportunity to escape to India through an arduous and perilous two-month journey on foot across the Himalayas. Once in India, he proceeded to the Drikung Kagyü Monastery and entered into the institute for higher education. After completing his course of study, he was appointed dean of the institute, where he served with distinction for 6 years. Over the ensuing years, he engaged in spiritual retreats involving practices of Five-fold Mahamudra and the Six Yogas of Naropa. In the year 2000, Drupon Ningpo participated in the Drikung Kagyu Snake Year teaching and received the entire body of Drikung Kagyu empowerments, transmissions, and instructions for advanced practice. In this body of Drikung Kagyu lineage, he earned the exalted title of Drupon, "master of spiritual attainment." With this well-deserved distinction, he has now traveled to America and is responding to the sincere prayers of many people for authentic guidance in Buddhist practice. Today, Drupon Ningpo tirelessly serves the dharma community from his home at the Tibetan Meditation Center in Frederick, Maryland. Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket I attend the Gar Drolma Buddhist Center. I work at a public access TV station in Ohio. I've written and directed a movie titled, "Zombie: A Musical, Romantic Comedy". The title says it all. I love to read, hang out with friends and watch movies. I'm a romantic at heart. I love the theatre! I LOVE directing!
Who I'd like to meet:
I am looking for a man that's honest, down to Earth, and open-minded. I'm looking for a guy that I can cuddle with, to share things with. Someone that will love me for who I am and not expect me to change. I seem to be attracted to guys who are artistic. I would love to meet a guy that has both feet on the ground and sure of who he is. Okay, maybe I'm asking for too much. :-) I'd also like to meet some pretty cool friends. People I could just hang out with and laugh a lot.

hay ray day say pay lay! so, if your sister wants the cat, let me know. its very, very sweet, and i think he'd do well with a family. i really want to keep it, but i have to keep him in my room all the time due to my roommates cat's aggressiveness, and he's not too happy about that, he seems bored. let me know if she's interested. she could even meet the cat first before making any decisions! thanks dude!

Hey I know you've probably recieved a bunch of comments and videos from me in the past few days and I'm sorry if I'm clogging up your comment section. But I have a project called "Addicted to Bad Movies" I'm working on and was wondering if you'd take a look at this trailer. I'm still fine tuning the pilot but if your interested in doing some voice over work lemme know okay? Also, if you still volunteer at the MVCC I'd like to know if you'd be interesting in Executive Producing this so it could get on air (I haven't been to the MVCC inna while so I'm rusty on the process of getting stuff on air).

healing THE WORLD is a simple task
it is done in four steps one at a time

first: heal YOURSELF by loving yourself

second: heal YOUR FAMILY by loving your family

third: heal YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD by loving your neighbors

fourth: make the first step

YOUR SELF - YOUR FAMILY - YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
these three are THE WORLD for YOU

YOUR primary task is to heal YOUR WORLD
YOU don't need to worry about ANOTHER WORLD
because ANOTHER YOURSELF is taking care of it
