Cheers Raj for your crisp and constructive comments;- ) Tommy

Perhaps 'worlds' have the power to shape 'words' too, when you think about it.

re "Inductive and deductive Logic tutorials." aaaaaaaaagh! (runs out of the room) 😉

Ta Raj on 'Sin'. Your comment is most welcome. Tommy

Hello Raj, thanks for the comment on Mushroom Picking. The mushrooms were huge, bigger than in any shop. Thanks again. Keith

Thank you for your comment on 'happy tears'. And definitely it opens the door as you put it for more. 😃

Hi Raj thankyou for your comments it's taken a long time but after a lifetime of being quiet seeing sleaze and listening to it i have found my voice at last . Regards Wendy .

you are a very fine man.

Such a positive hopeful poem...thanks

I sensed Zen Hazel. I feel connected. Namaste.

Only yesterday I finished a little book on Mindfulness by Anna Black -- filled with beautiful, bite-sized practices.

I have watched Tara Brach before. I feel drawn towards her and her belief in radical acceptance is rather endearing.
When she mentions the 'awakening heart' my mind delves deep into my earlier classes on kundalini yoga where we worked on the awakening of the sleeping serpent within us (mula badha).

My journey continues Hazel and I'm in the final stages of completing my first book on managing smoking addiction through staying in the "now" and watching the cravings come and go. Wonderful.

I'm keen to know more about your mental health charity, MBSR and MBCT.

Love&Light
Raj

Hi Raj, I've been doing some kind of meditation with different degrees of commitment since I was 16. Then I lived in Nepal for a couple of years working as a volunteer and was surrounded by functioning Buddhist monasteries. I did a vipassana retreat and that started my mindfulness practice. When I came home I became involved with the Mindfulness Association at Samye Ling in Scotland and did the MBSR at Bangor University. I'm addicted to Tara Brach podcasts and videos. I am part of a local buddhist sangha but don't consider myself to be a practising buddhist. I'm lucky enough to teach secular mindfulness as part of my job with a mental health charity - so that anchors me at work and helps to wake me out of the trance. The difficult colleague in my poem was from a previous job - I still think of her with a mixture of love, amusement and sheer fear!

thanks for commenting on 'Olive' Raj

Thanks for taking time to read my stuff. I know some of it is extremely adult orientated, but the more serious stuff seems to appeal...keep posting your work Raj & take care...Jeff....

Thank you Andy.
I write to share, to nourish and generate energy. Feed
back like yours inspires me to reach out even wider.

We are after all one universal tribe.

Be Blessed!

RAj,
I like your sample work and I am looking forward to seeing more. The subject of human interaction is close to my heart and something I have tried to cover in my own work. Let you I have only just decided to share it on here. Good luck! Andy

This sounds nice... It makes sense! Just write what is in your mind. Let your thoughts tour you into the world of poetry. Use your imagination. your emotions, visualization and write every thoughts in your mind.
