When I write it is often personal. This is where I gain inspiration and it is like I have to be honest and true to my spirit... To get started with writing it is for me in conversation with either myself or others or God...... The other being a mirror of my own self. It is like in martial arts. Your learn to know yourself through your sparring partner who shows you your strenghts and weaknesses where you then can grow with the experience. So a lot of my writing has been through emails and different social medias. What happens when I write is that it just explodes...it flows down and through my fingers. After learning to touch type it flows even faster. The word is down quick as a thought....I hardly write with pen anymore....

On a personal note, please allow me to share in loving memory an exchange I had with a great soul that passed on one year ago after a 'short' periode of illness .......

Dear Brother. I cannot imagine how it is for you going through this. It has been tough for me also but manifested differently. There were times I felt so strong that nothing could affect me,  but I was wrong. I just bow my head and try to evolve through this episode and try to accept my destiny. I wish for you to have a best possible day with enjoyment of the little little things and the autumn colors..............

Brother; 

........   your wish is to the point and very practical because this is pretty much what's left to enjoy. No great projects and no seeing beyond a few days. I am not sure how it is to go through this . In a sense it is unreal, as it is happening to someone else than me, as if it is a sort of story I am reading but I am not really in it ....and on the other hand I am very much in it, constrained and limited by my poor body which does not either understand what happens. It is in many respects weird, interesting also and a bit a discovery which also entails approaching death, a thing so totally unfamiliar  and this again is paradoxical as we know it is unavoidable ...  But if there is room of maneuver for negotiating timing, well,we seat at the negotiating table and we' ll tell Shri Yama: " look my lord, it is your job, I understand, but just check first with the highest sphere". It is good that you seize the full extent of the trauma and pain you are going through because, all the while and all the same,you remain a yogini and for a yogini seeing is liberating as it opens the Sakshi swarup that brings us closer to atma consciousness...
