New Year Greetings

Dear Friends

Time either seems to stand still for me when I am unaware of it, which is mostly the case, or fly away when things appear which requir action. The calendar indicates that it is January 2009, but it's hard for me to actually feel that it's been 10 months since leaving Boulder - feels more like a surprise moment! Being unwired from all TV or radio news, and having infrequent internet access all play a part.

Living high on a mountain ridge with vast views stretched out to the Himalayas gives a sense of the mythical Shangra-La. Days are mostly spent in quiet awe combined with noisy awe, in those times when I go to the busy bazaar..... yet it all appears upon a Stillness which is much more real than the world displayed upon It.

Remembering that calendars mark time and that January begins a new year, I am reminded of the "Happy New Year" greetings which are given during this season.

I want to share with you my sincere wish for a new year filled with all you need to be happy, the grace to recognize gifts of love given and received and each and every pointer to Self discovery.

Peace Be with you,
Jyoti
