Susan, if you go to the archives, click on April, 2010, go to April 15: Your Ancestral Diet and Digestive Harmony with Dr. Ananda Kramer. Thanks for asking.

You are a lovely writer and you so beautifully capture the soul and mystery of that special place. I wish we could go, but it doesn’t seem to be working out this time. It was great being with you in Fort Wayne last month and I look forward to your posts about your experience in Meherana.

Thank you, Susan – indeed this will be a time of enrichment, of being embraced by not only this beautiful place, human and wild, but their Source as well. As you say ‘stay open to whatever comes’ I have been taking that in in a deeper, more significant way, having gotten the inner nudge that it’s not necessary to plan everything to within an inch of my life. Rather, the journey and its intimacy reveal themselves more when I am present in the moment, receptive to its silent whisper instead of attached to my plans. I will take a different view of the rattlers and the bear that are in the vicinity, and other forms of wildlife, due to your beautiful, expansive example! You and Richard are in my heart.

May your time be blessed in many ways, not least by being embraced and enriched by the community of that beautiful place–human and wild. Travel well and stay open to whatever comes…

It’s on the AquaFria Creek. I’ve been to the Merced River and agree it’s very beautiful. Again, thanks for your good wishes. Look forward to more of your blog, one of the most informative.

Are you on or near the Merced River? That’s a beautiful spot in the Yosemite area. Have a wonderful time. And we’ll have a lot of new material posted here upon your return. K

Ahh, the mystery, Megan. The breath that is the Source of all breaths, within the breath. Like the ocean of which we are the bubbles. I love how you connect in this way. Thanks for your wishes – astute guidance? Nah. I’ve been lucky to have had amazing teachers and guides along the way; if I can share a smidgeon of what they shared I will be happy. Btw, it’s not exactly desert. There’s more greenery than a desert would support, but any area that doesn’t have some type of shrubbery, and pathways without gravel are extremely dusty. Thanks for the image of purifying winds. I like it better than nuisance winds!

Thanks for your good wishes, Kendra; may your wish come true, I love new breakthroughs! Not so much discussions or lectures. We will have a guest who gives talks, usually in the form of stories, once or twice most days. There’s a fairly set time for family-style dinner (everyone pitches in the prep and clean-up in an open-air kitchen.) That’s the extent of the structuring. There’s no meditation per se but rather meditation in action, i.e. one’s internal focus while living, as you say. But that is up to the individual. There is a very special cabin that is lovely for spending quiet meditative/contemplative time, as well as any of the paths, along the creek etc. It’s near Yosemite so very beautiful. On my return I look forward to reading more of your blog, Women’s Memoirs.

Mary, I wish you lots of new breakthroughs on your inner journey. The program sounds very interesting. I also agree with your concept that truth doesn’t know right or wrong. I hadn’t really thought about that before, but I can certainly accept its validity.

So do you have discussions, lectures, any sort of structured programs? Or is it all internal meditation and living?
