St. Jamestown, Toronto

Getting Around

A lot of love has been flowing my way. Birthday and post-birthday messages find their way through the cyber space network. Such gratitude I don’t deserve in the heaps that are coming. In any event, thank yous generate a good mood of optimism, so I can appreciate the happy triggers. 

Going for a physical checkup was one prime function of the day. Blood and urine samples were left with “Life Lab” on Bloor St. and, hence, I had the opportunity to venture there on foot. Whenever there’s a chance to go somewhere I say “Do it by foot.” I guess you could say that is the beauty of being downtown. Services and needs are accessible unlike the burbs of urban sprawl. 

Our Thursday Zoom group still hover around on the stupendous chapter thirteen, which delves into the theme of paramatma, Supersoul. We are finding the credentials of this feature of the Absolute to be quite intriguing. For instance, verse eighteen informs us that “He is the source of light in all luminous objects. He is beyond the darkness of matter and is unmanifested. He is knowledgeable, He is the object of knowledge and He is the goal of knowledge. He is situated in everyone’s heart.”

There are admin rolls to play, even for a swami, and so the evening saw me sitting in at istaghosti, a review and reflection session on how our ashram monastery is running. Also very exciting was a discussion on the project for Huntsville, where fourteen units will be available as apartments for seniors to reside. There will be a restaurant and temple in the complex. More on this as time unfolds. 

May the Source be with you!
