Music Made Visible
Piano notes look like crop circles when made visible. We really do live in a tonal multi-verse (many universes). The sounds we make, the words we speak do affect and create our realities.

On Practitioners
People who are not practitioners allow their
pain, sorrow and anguish to overwhelm them. We, who consider ourselves
to be practitioners, have the right to suffer like everyone else, but we
don’t have the right not to practice. It’s okay to suffer, but it’s not
okay to allow yourself to be flooded with suffering. We know that in
our bodies and consciousness there are positive elements that we can call on to protect ourselves and take good care of the negative things manifesting in us.
What we usually do is call on the seed of mindfulness to manifest also as a zone of energy. This energy has the capacity of recognizing, embracing, and relieving suffering, calming and also transforming. In every one of us the seed of mindfulness exists, but if we have not practiced the art of mindful living, then that seed may be very small.

The Cure
You suppose you are the trouble
But you are the cure
You suppose that you are the lock on the door
But you are the key that opens it
It’s too bad that you want to be someone else
You don’t see your own face, your own beauty
Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.
But you are the cure
You suppose that you are the lock on the door
But you are the key that opens it
It’s too bad that you want to be someone else
You don’t see your own face, your own beauty
Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.

Passing Through
This beautiful exploration of Teslas' work, 1893, brought tears to my eyes, because of the power of inspiration.

Your true home is in the here and the now. It is not limited by
time, space, nationality, or race. Your true home is not an abstract
idea. It is something you can touch and live in every moment. With
mindfulness and concentration, the energies of the Buddha, you can find
your true home in the full relaxation of your mind and body in the
present moment. No one can take it away from you. Other people can
occupy your country, they can even put you in prison, but they cannot
take away your true home and your freedom.
Thich Nhat Hanh
