yellow-springs:
Student: The other day when I was beating the mokugyo,* a small spider crawled across the top of it. There was nothing I could do to avoid the spider. I veered a little off to the side to avoid him, but he went right into the striker. It was too powerful for him to escape.
Suzuki Roshi: You didn’t kill him.
Student: Something did! [Laughter.]
Suzuki Roshi: By mistake. It...

cosmosconfusion asked: how did you manifest so many followers on your tumblr blog?
A private dance party is a good way to explore the connection between passion, rhythm, love, bhakti, rock, swagger, soul, funk, spirit, and other wild world-shattering expressions of non-duality.

slycetheactivist asked: I've had raging mind issues within 6 years. I have felt uncomfortable within myself is because I felt that GOD wasn't with me. There were many moments where I felt he had left me for things that I did. Sometimes from negative things that I did. Other times it would be as simple as me stepping on a crack,or bumping into something. And If i didn't clear these things up, I would feel...

Does a flower have meaning? Or a tree? They have certain relationships with the environment, and are products of their environment. But their existence? Their Being? It is incomparable. To give it any sort of meaning would rob it of its divinely natural and spontaneous existence.
Life can’t have a meaning because that would make life a robot, a machine. Life is far more than words, let alone...

I'm incredibly attracted to meditation and yoga and all this wonderful-ness, and want to be immersed in all of it, but i find myself lost before i even attempt to. Do...

It’s thundering outside and the rain is dripping everywhere from dark ominous clouds. I’ve zapped around fifteen people with reiki already and now I’m waking up my altar.
Keep ‘em coming, I’m just getting warmed up. :P

Anonymous asked: How do I respond with love when I feel so bereft of it myself? How do I let go of a need to feel love enough to give it out without feeling like I should be getting it in return? How do I let go of the selfishness?

Anonymous asked: How do I refrain from fighting negativity with negativity? Whenever anyone says something mean or rude to me I feel the need to retaliate with something even more cruel of rude. But I know putting negativity out into the Universe is simply awful and it won'y solve anything. I also don't want to hurt someone else just because they hurt me. How do I combat hate with love?

allthereasonstobelieve asked: Hello yogi, how would you suggest would be the healthy way to deal with anger? Although most of the time, I don't let the little things get to me, occasionally those things build up and I kinda explode all the anger all at once :o. Can u tell me how i can prevent this from happening?
michaelmira-deactivated20120430 asked: Is it better to harness and control "negative" emotions such as anger, or is it more natural to accept it as part of my personality? Perhaps calm and serenity--peace within myself--is something that will come out naturally as I get older?
