Greetings all and everyone! A few weeks ago, I went to Grass Valley, CA, to visit the Institute for the Development of the Harmonious Human Being, (IDHHB). While there, Lee and Glenn Perry of the Samadhi Tank Company made available their tank for my use. I was very excited to try it, and what you [...] Read more »

Today, I could not resist digging back into my handy-dandy brain-expansion kit, the Just Because Club: From this text, I have plucked many experiments. Today, the one I plucked suggested that I take a walk downtown, and whenever I approach an intersection, to roll a 6-sided-die. (you know, the square ones?) 1 or 6= go [...] Read more »

Tonight, I walked to the local coffee shop and did another Just Because Club experiment. The exercise directed me to wave my hands at a much slower pace than that at which I walked. For every 5-10 steps, the arms would complete one cycle. As I began walking, the exercise seemed like a slight anomaly, [...] Read more »

Thanks for joining me for another installment of my Just Because Club memory adventure! I do not know exactly just how this “Captured Moments” activity has jostled and messed with my brain just yet.

Oh yeah. Check it! After a startling series of wake-up calls, revelations, and dodging the spider in the middle of Indra’s Net, all set off by an unassuming workshop about body movements and breathing, I got home to Eugene and decided I was a model.

The story behind the people in these photos amazes me far more than the photos themselves, but perhaps the photos speak more than I ever could, in linear terms, of how this modeling session came together.

Let me just say that it blew my mind so far out that I cried at the underlying beauty and wildness that hides in plain view behind all the movements of my life. You’ll have to ask me for an in-depth version of the story someday. That’s another book entirely.

For now, you can see the fruits of awakening. Naked and Read more »
