- FREE GUIDED RELAXATION MEDITATION TRACK
Due to the fact that there was a kind mention of my guided meditation CDs by the lovely Eugenie Kelly in Harper’s Bazaar this month I have kept this link up so you can download a free meditation if you wish. It is called Quick Relax, gives you an idea how the Relax Guided meditation CD sounds.
The way to use this track is as follows – There is a chime at 10, 15 and 20 Minutes. Use this track by stopping when you hear the chime you want to stop at. I designed this audio in response to request from “Time Poor” people who want to know how long they are mediating for with out opening their eyes and looking at a clock. So you can choose to do a super quick 10 min meda or roll on to do a more comprehensive 20 mins. There is only 3 mins of instruction in the beginning then music.
Quick Relax:

RE-GIFTING – Your Gifts.
When I was a monk I lived with a very old special Lama who was often visited by western students baring gifts. As it is a custom in Tibetan Buddhism to give a traditional white silk scarf (Katak) and a gift of some description when visiting a Lama. Then usually the Lama offers a gift at the end of the meeting in return and a blessing.
I would often see one person walk in with a gift like say – a statue of a Buddha and then later that day see someone else walking around on cloud 9 holding the same statue telling their friends how the Lama had given it to them.
On some occasions I would be accosted by the upset / disturbed original temporary owner of the gift asking why the Lama had given away their present. I would simply point out that it was impossible for the Lama to keep every gift as his rooms were always overflowing with the amount of things offered to him on such a regular basis. This would appeal to their sense of the sprit of “giving a gift that was originally given”.
So in the sprit of passing on this gift please by all means download, burn, email and transfer this guided relaxation track to whom ever you wish with my blessing and joy.
I hope it brings you and whom ever you give it to peace and joy.

The Oneness of being.
You are a powerful being.
You may be a great thinker, you may be a big feeler but at your depth you are an immensely powerful Being.
In this vast ocean of existence there are many individual waves the arise for a time.
Some are big and some are small, ultimately as they arise they dissolve again.
If you follow any individual wave down to its depths you will find the one ocean, the source of all waves.
With out the depths the ocean would be but a desert.
You are the wave, you are the ocean.
For as sure there are waves they are supported by the very depths they arise from.
So too, As you Go Deeper following your own awareness down to its depths you will find the oneness of being.
This state of being is you and yet it is greater than you, for your are all things and yet you are no thing.
Be the wave, Be the depths. Hold these two truths united in your heart mind and let the games begin.
There is no bigger game to play.

Every Quarter I co host a one day forum called Go Deeper in Sydney and one day in New Castle called Being Within. They are both ontological forums where we choose to stop doing stuff and just be together. There is no higher purpose for human existence.
As part of the 1 day workshops you will be guided in Meditation, supported around being more at peace in the world and given the opportunity to take a well earned break.
If you want to know more just email using the contact on this site,
I also have a wed night at my place in bondi for crew in their 20’s and early 30’s called agents of change. It is the same principle we enjoy meditation, qi gong, live music and take the opportunity to show up in the room and be seen by others.
Again if you interested just send me an email.

Search for Purpose.
They say that a Tourist doesn’t know where they have been and a traveler doesn’t know where they are going. For me I felt like I was slowly making the transition between being a tourist and a traveler. Where was I going… I didn’t know. All I had was my intention and a sense of purpose. I was on a mission to find my Teacher and I was prepared to go anywhere and do anything. My purpose was to learn so that I may share that wisdom with others and perhaps if I learnt well enough and through dedication and hard work, tireless effort I may make such an impact on them that they may go on to teach others and so on and so on, a some what idealistic dream but it was all that I wanted to do. My soul purpose you might say.
So I had interviews with Abbots of Monasteries and Lamas of various Traditions. I was looking for the most qualified Teacher I could find and at the same time I knew nothing of what I was looking for. I had no way to tell a good teacher from a not so good teacher. No way to know a fake or phony, Perhaps if they had light shining from there eyes or could tell me who I was in my former life and what I was looking for… but no, none of that was likely to happen.
Here I was the blind leading myself along a road at night trying to find my way.
Reminds me of Shantideva a great India Yogi and Scholar that I was to learn about later in my studies, He had a most marvelous saying, the kind of thing you need to hear at time like this.
He would say something along the lines of:
It is like your walking through the hills in the middle of the night, lost trying to find your way. And then a flash of lightening lights up the nights sky and it all becomes clear just for a few moments so that you can get your bearings once again and continue upon your way.
I think in moments when I have been looking for an answer or for a reason to go on I am lucky cause I know that lightening comes, sooner or later if you just stay put and wait it will come.

The Rainstorm
There is something to be learnt from a rainstorm.
When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road.
But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet.
When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed though you still get the same soaking.
This understanding extends to everything…..........HAGAKURE (taken from the book of the samurai-Yamamoto Tsunetomo)
