My Current Reading Stash

To get a better idea of what I am currently doing in my life, take a look at my present stack of books.

The study of macrobiotics and macrobiotic living has become a big part of my daily life because of an issue that I am having with severe eczema, exhaustion and fatigue. I'm using the recipes and the daily living suggestions to address my skin and internal condition. With one bowl for eating, and several small cooking vessels, I am able to prepare simple healthy meals.

While in my little hermitage, I am using the book, THE PRACTICES OF YOGA FOR THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM, for the study of yoga asana, breathwork and visualization and go deeper into my yogic practices. I read several passages from Swami Sivananda's JAPA YOGA, each night before going to sleep. I have a 90-minute Sanskrit mantra chanting practice in the morning. Sivananda's passages give me the light of intention for my 4 am practice of japa.

I also have two Ipsalu Tantra Kriya Yoga texts, so that I can refresh my knowledge and performance of individual practices, and be better prepared to work with the people who come to me for mentoring.

Of course, I have an Osho book among the mix. I like the classic, AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A SPIRITUALLY INCORRECT MYSTIC.

Most of these books are from Downtown Books, a used bookstore in Milwaukee, from the public library, some from my travel bag, and two returns from previous loans to friends.

I'm obviously deep into living a hermit yoga lifestyle. In addition to these practices, I am going to acupuncture, taking long walks along the river and going to yoga classes.

If you've read this far, thank you for your interest. I should also mention that I am currently not in a position to date or meet for coffee. I do, however, meet some friends for Monday Morning Tea.

Santa Fe Osho Satsang.

I did it! I officially started an Osho Group in Santa Fe. When I think of all the different things that I can do to share tools for the expansion of consciousness and liberation from the limited thinking, I feel that my best offering is to share Osho Active Meditations. This is one of my passions.

Starting in November, I will be hosting Osho Satsang at the house where I live with Michael. The space is beautiful. It is my intention to bring people together who are moving into the shifting frequencies that Osho and other visionaries mention. I expect that both Sannyasin and people new to Osho will attend. Osho had a vision of people creating many buddhafields around the planet. It is my intention to be of service to that vision.

I'm inspired by friends who currently hold tantra groups that include Osho meditation. It is their inspiration that is catalyst for my decision to create an Osho Satsang in Santa Fe, NM.

Santa Fe

This blog post is a response to ravenisclumsy. I do not know if he is aware that I'm following his blog as a female stalker. I'm harmless.

The natural lighting in Santa Fe is seductive. It continues to draw me back to the city, even though each time I depart, I think I set an intention to not return. Wherever I travel, I try to find the unique way the light refracts its own unique quality to the area. But somehow, Santa Fe's lighting seems to have entrained me.

Even though I think that I am more surrounded by community in Palm Springs or in Stevens Point, I continue to travel to New Mexico to be with Naked Michael. I made a decision to return to be his regular primary partner. That decision involves other levels of involvement in the area. Michael is vigorously working at creating a tantric community. I hope to enhance that by starting an Osho group.

I expect to start an Osho meditation and book group at Michael's house. We can use the basement area to perform active meditations, such as Dynamic Meditation, Kundalini Meditation, The Nadabrahma Meditations, No Dimensions (my personal favorite), and the Chakra Breathing. We can have book group discussions based on Osho discourse, or do a group study on The Book of Secrets. Since there are big screen televisions at the house, we can watch Osho DVDs and have discussion on topics related to the presentation.

Osho's vision is to create not only a buddafield, but to create meditations based on the new frequencies of inner science for an outer world. This group will be a way to connect with other Osho followers. We can continue the whirling of transformation. In this group, we can explore the science of breathwork in relation to our active meditations and our daily work lives.

""The real person needs no proof for God.
He comes to know God from the experience of inner power,
from his inner glow." ~Osho~

It is my intention to create a tantric group through the spirit of our beloved Osho. I know that the unique quality of light is responsible for seducing me to return to Santa Fe. But it is not just the daytime lighting that calls me. It is the night time light of the stars that entrain me to sleep with them. I return with a purpose, and to be nurtured by my Beloved Michael, the thin air, and the light of many stars

When stars wheel
Around the North Pole,
They are longing for our growing consciousness.
