I love how it's CENTERED yet OFF-CENTER at the same time!
just like ME and my crazy life
but i wouldn't have it any other way!
every day a whacky CHALLENGE...
but a BLESSING too
Like the most-spiritual drummers say and practice:
"every stroke -- EVERY stroke -- is a prayer"
it doesn't matter how many million million times...
they've played that same stroke
EVERY stroke a prayer...
a HEARTBEAT in fact
a life-gift from the universe
you can tell...
listening...
if they're playing this way...
LIVING this way
CONNECTED this way
you really can!
check out the CONGA PLAYING on this great song
covered by Brazilian singer/pianist/composer/producer -- Elaine Elias
"Light My Fire" -- created by the Doors -- recorded in 1966
while the USA was still fighting in Vietnam...
and before the USA started doing so in Afghanistan
(leaving Saigon was a bitch
leaving Kabul -- the same thing
the worst of war!
always the same shitty old game)
fighting -- fighting -- fighting...
what a fucking waste!
i'd MUCH rather make love than fight!
and i MUCH prefer a LOVE-FIRE -- a HEART-FIRE -- to the other kinda fire

NOW FOR THE YOGA!
sorry -- i can never resist a good Teaching/Learning Diversion
(EVERY time I teach a little...
I LEARN a lot more)

ALAN FINGER
the yoga teacher who REALLY got me going!
LOTS of good getting-started-with-yoga info here...
and ALSO magical things...
like an intro to the CHAKRAS --
VERY deep subjects...
that are well worth a lifetimes' STUDY, PRACTICING and SHARING of!
Alan has created MANY "smash" yoga programs...
like the Yoga Zone series...
and still practices...
and evolves his magic at:
ISHTA Yoga in NYC
http://ishtayoga.com/staff/alan-finger/
HERE ARE MY BASIC YOGA VIDEOS from Alan...
plus RELATED INFO...
like supporting CHAKRA info...
and an amazing 1991 documentary from MADONNA -- "Truth or Dare"
(also known internationally as "In Bed With Madonna"
she was 32 when this documentary was made)
Madonna lives ALL seven Chakras in this documentary
see if you can spot her shifting from one Chakra to the other!
ALL OF US CAN -- AND SHOULD -- DO THE SAME
why live less than the FULL life we've been gifted-with?
you've got 7 CHAKRAS to explore...
to live...
to intertwine with others
go for it!
time's a wasting!
