243 Avenue Rd., Toronto

 

Today

 

Zoom-ing began at 11 a.m., when the sun became very strong; lighting up the room with the arched window. It was Cleveland that was on the other end of my call and I was at their end. It was good connecting with them again.

 

We dwelt on the verse 7.29 from The Gita, a beautiful verse which establishes our real self. No need for identity crisis in the face of this text. We are clearly brahman, spirit, and not the body.

 

I recall, when I walked through Cleveland in the spring of 2016, the big game was on that night. One of the playoffs, between Cleveland and guess who else? Yes, Toronto. The home team one, to my recollection.

 

In the afternoon, six hours later, I actually delivered a class for those in Toronto. Topic? Hero of Commitment. Indeed, Shiva demonstrated his absolute love for his consort, Sati, as she did for him. In fact, while defending him, Sati sacrificed her life. The two were not only heroes but yogis of the highest calibre.

 

They reside on Mount Kailash, and own practically nothing. Very renounced. Very cool, calm and collected.

 

A final class was to be an actual combing through of the Gita with a young man from Hamilton. It has been one-on-one with him for months now. It is going well. We are both enjoying thoroughly.

 

May the Source be with you!
