The steps were wet, the marble cold,

Held the vibrations, which hung in the air.
We climbed to the top while the music played
As my withering mind gave…

Winter Solstice Sadhana, Nineteen Seventy-One,
We went to Florida to enjoy the sun
At the ashram of Baba Siri Chand,
Under the green trees, beside the pond.
We set the camp and pitched our tents
To enjoy, together, that great event.
It was a beautiful day in the Sunshine State
To construct the camp and…

An excerpt from my book, Original Light, pg 26

This course hasn’t been one of those supernatural spiritual experiences that sometimes occur, with rare blessings. It hasn’t been totally new or foreign feeling. I guess it has been like growing into some shoes that I bought a few years too early. From the very first moment of seeing my turbaned image reflected in the…
