I have been looking for a Guru for over a year now. I am finding it hard to make that connection and it is slightly frustrating though I believe that it will happen when it is supposed to happen. In the process I came across this truly wonderful website and though I would pass it on.

5 Keys to Thrive-Tony Robbins
Dec 19th, 2009 by sublingua
To be human
to deny the need
to surpass our supercilious expectations
and revel in the organic purpose of our breed
how to smell the earth
praise the sky
get dirty and get exhausted
while our senses still survive
breathe deep like Zen Masters
breathe shallow in pants and gasps
run full out crawl on your knees
feel being human
while you can

D.H Lawrence
This is an excerpt from the poem…
Give, and it shall be given unto you
is still the truth about life.
But giving life is not so easy.
It doesn’t mean handing it out to some mean fool, or letting the living dead eat you up.
It means kindling the life-quality where it was not,
even if it’s only in the whiteness of a washed pocket-handkerchief.
D.H. Lawrence
Finding Nature Where You Are
Sep 29th, 2009 by didier
When I first arrived in Los Angeles in 1996 from a 2 year sabbatical traveling the world, I was struck by the madness that is living in a big city. It was particularly overwhelming as I had spent considerable time in extreme wilderness situations where I had educated my eye to appreciate the beauty of Mother Nature. However and as a consequence, living here I had blunted my perception of her finesses in this newly discovered city life.
I could not see and I struggled daily with my perceived absence of her – the concrete, the noise, the acrid smells of car fumes and chemicals, the shabby, the dirt and the forgotten left on the sidewalk like unwanted trash. Furthermore, with what seemed like so much anger all around me and artificial time eroding the spaces between life’s articulation, I thought Nature had obviously abandoned me in this lost cause that is the City of Angels. My life felt empty without her seductive display enfolding me. As I started to despair, a chance encounter, as so often happens, sent me a message from Socrates reminding me that walking was the natural pace of thought.
So I started to walk and a whole new world of possibilities emerged – I began to hear the sing-song chatter of migrating birds, from the parrot to the humming bird, I noticed the tropical greens and exotic colors of the flowers in every landscaped garden, the rich abundance of wildlife from skunks, raccoons and possums to coyotes, mountain lions and deer. I was simply stunned by the rich diversity of life around me, accomplices to nature’s design living invisibly in every oasis across this expansive concrete desert. It was a truly remarkable revelation. I shrugged off my despair as I returned to her delight.
