About Me:
All too often people come to meditation in the hope of extraordinary results, like visions, lights, or some supernatural miracle. When no such thing occurs, they feel extremely disappointed. But the real miracle of meditation is more ordinary and much more useful… .

I happen to love my job - which is so freak'n amazing - what a great way to live! It would be off the hook to be put out of work though, to not be needed in my field (I am the Director of Education and Prevention for Maui AIDS Foundation). Here's to the cure.
Remember when HIV and AIDS was a gay disease? Now it's an African disease. Will we ever embrace this enough to stop making it a “them” disease? (My guess is probably, it willl take the women to shout it out - since women who think they are in a monogomous relationship are the growing population getting infected. Our mothers, sisters and daughters)
Aloha to all who are reading
Feel free to drop me a line, I have loved meeting all of you on the journey. So many amazing people, huh!
“The great and rare mystics of the past (from Buddha to Christ, from al-Hallaj to Lady Tsogyal, from Hui-neng to Hildegard) were, in fact, ahead of their time, and are still ahead of ours. In other words, they are not figures of the past. They are figures of the future.”
– Sex, Ecology, Spirituality , p. 253 Ken Wilber
A man's excellence is like that of water; It benefits all things without striving; It takes to the low places shunned by men. Water is akin to Tao… . In all the earth nothing weaker than water, Yet in attacking the hard, nothing superior, Nothing so certain in wearing down strength: There is no way to resist it. Note then: The weak conquer the strong, The yielding outlast the aggressors.
