| The importance of family and ethnicity/culture in my life: |
While I value and am thankful for the
physical family through which i took
birth in this incarnation, I place much
more importance on the global family
of humanity, the sangha, and the
interconnectedness of all living
beings, of all spirit souls having a
human experience. In terms of
ethnicity and culture, I believe that all
peoples/tribes/groups of the Earth
have something unqiue and special
to give to the planet, and it is through
these gifts that we learn
understanding and how to revel in
the bliss of diversity. |

|
| How I first got started with Buddhism: |
It was through the New Orleans Zen
Temple, where I met some monks
who taught me about Zazen practice
back in 1995. Also, through the
movie Kundun, which inspired my
most recent pilgrimage to India,
where I was hosted by a friend who
acted on that movie. |

Universal Door Sutra, Rabindranath Tagore "Gitanjali", Lynn Andrews "Windhorse Woman" |

~Parameshvara (Sweet Woman who
took me under her wing back in 1994
at the New Orleans Krishna Temple)
~Sri Haidakhan Babaji of North India
~Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami
(Gurudeva-from Hawaii Temple) |
|
| Music that touches me: |
My favorite Singer of All Time: Jeff
Buckley 1966-1997 (ecclectic,
soulful, esoteric, passionate,
humanitarian, poetic, angelic being
whose spirit flew to Shamballa way
too soon. )

metal, blues, and 60's. Here are a
few:
Tim Buckley 1947-1975 (Jeff's Dad)

| The meaning of existence in five words: |
Unconditional Love Towards All Beings |
|
| Personal qualities I'd like to develop or work on: |
Deepening The Meditation
Experience, Transcending
Mundanity, and Attaining Inner
Peace/ Spiritual Balance |
|
| Why you should get to know me: |
If you're interested in Polyandry, it's
like that Monkees song "You Just
May be The One!" Let's drink decaf
ice coffee or herbal tea at the
coffehouse, run carefree in the rain,
make some art sculptures, play
guitar (I used to take lessons, which
I'm hoping to start again!), sing
shamelessly to what's on the cd
player, be light & happy, watch the
Twilight Zone marathons, and enjoy
learning from life's experiences! |
|
| More about who I'm looking for: |
Someone whose path runs into mine
through karmic destiny, like a
butterfly blown into a garden by the
gentle winds of fate. Someone with
whom I can grow in the Dharma,
exchange ideas, lavish with affection,
meditate with, laugh with,
philosophize with, spend time in
nature with, and evolve together by
loving understanding and mutual
rapport. |

| My favorite quote: |
"Your Love Tastes Like Chocolate
Melting on the Tongue of God"~
