🕉 Meditating daily since 1993. The road is long, and sometimes empty, but it leads to places that are beyond imagination. Fortunate to find a teacher, although in truth the teacher found me. What little I’ve learned — and unlearned — was taught in silence, and I continue to learn in silence still.
☸️☯️♎️🔮🗿🛸🪐🤨 Woo-woo is great if it can be grounded with aggressive common-sense. Or to quote Vivekananda, “It is wrong to believe blindly. You must exercise your own reason and judgment”
