Well, I have had some major glitches on my Events page- for example the payment link for my May workshop is not working which is definitely unacceptable. As a result I am rethinking the whole format and platform for my blog and associated pages and about to embark on a big old learning curve. Fortunately I know that there are some really user-friendly web building platforms out there. It seems like every time I have hired other people to build a website for me it has fallen through the cracks so this time it is on me. Bombs away!!!

I call on Ganesha to remove all obstacles to my progress and the
power of Lord Shiva to destroy what is old and no longer needed and transform it from ashes into something new and beautiful!!!

Tonight I am exhausted but I wanted to do a quick post before I go to bed. I know there is something that wants to be said.

When I was in my early teens I used to "try" to meditate. The big distraction was my breath! If only I could breath totally silently then I was sure I'd be able to meditate. When I got older I learned an amazing mediation technique. Meditate on the sound and the movement of the breath. What a revelation! The one constant as long as I am alive- I am breathing. It was like some major secret had just been revealed to me.

Tomorrow I do a kirtan. Tonight I came up with a very sweet and simple melody for a chant to Lord Shiva. I am looking forward to sharing it. I am grateful that each day I am getting more response to my work up here. It feels good.
