Everything Auspicious


Paraphrasing Donovan--and with respect to His Holiness the Dalai Lama:

Everything runs in a circular motion
Thought is like a little boat upon the sea.
Everybody is a part of everything anyway,
You can have everything if you let yourself be.

On my circumnavigation around the world, I have been contemplating the meaning of interdependence and circularity. Safe at home (and jet lagged!), I am preparing to go to my birthplace, the Isle of Hope, where I will see my parents and various other relatives. What goes around comes around: while driving there with Sean, I will be meditating on everything auspicious from this grand journey of life.
The entrance to Meditators Compound on the path above Dharamsala.
