what inspires me
barefootdoctor ………
my teacher, mentor, healer, muse
virtual Taoist wizard
and first class ally on the Way …
his site barefootdoctorglobal.com/ is still ridiculously good value
and he’s recently launched a blog superchargedtaoist.com/
where he’s giving away loads of his very best stuff
both are really MOST highly recommended ………
and wherethehellismatt.com/ is allWays guarunteed to raise a smile …
Matt gave up designing violent video games
wrote his own job description
and is now said to be doing rather well …
one of my lovely sisters supplied me with this translation
of the Bengali backing track to Matt’s sweet dance :
The Song Of Life.
The same stream of life that runs through my life night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It’s the same life that shoots in joy
through the dust of the earth innumerable blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean cradle
of life and death
of ebb and flow.
I feel my limbs made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride is from the life throb of all ages
dancing in my blood this moment ………
i am learning this by heart
and repeating it to myself
and to creation
as a mantra
it inspires me deeply
and i suspect it may do the same for you …
try reading it out loud a few times over
whilst addressing yourself to the infinite
then observe your change of mood !
