An electronic diary sharing my spiritual path through observations/experiences, photos, videos, articles and more. It started with intensity at the end of January 2011 when I decided to go to South Africa and see the truth of animals living in the wild. Unsatisfied with the answers, I went to India looking for the truth of humans in an ancient civilization. Packing up my life as a dressage trainer in Southern California, I moved to Jaipur, India to follow a spiritual inquiry.

Horses for my Soul!
Took a little side trip to Cameo, CO to sit with the wild horses. Touching their lives and not what we are inflicting on them is important for anyone who wants to understand and work with horses. It was a version of the truth for horses. Gurudev encouraged me to continue with horses for as long as I am able and I realize that no matter how crazy the container is for the horse, my favorite thing to do on the planet is work with horse's intelligence, curiosity, willingness, and sensitivity. Merging with this energy while in a wake state is euphoric and joyful for me. It isn't about the experience of the horse, but the experience with the horse.

Walking in Dewey, AZ
Walking is walking and great to do in all types of environments. Spending time riding 7 horses, gym, working on next step. It is becoming clear that a group of us want to try developing a "spiritual/riding center" where horses and other animals are part of living the principles of a spiritual path.
Yes, we are all working on these principles in our daily lives, but looking at a shared environment of the practice. Suggested to find a word outside of sanctuary, retreat center, ashram etc. to identify the environment. The where is part of the current work. Interesting to talk to an astrocartographer and learn that I have visited and lived in most of my highlighted points on the global map.
Living such a simple life in a simple place, the separation between Jaipur and the West has the smallest gap to date. The time in the ashram this past visit really gave me a deeper sensing of belonging to something so vast it has no definition, so complete that it has no description, and so inclusive that it has only Oneness.
