Please call! Hi Tiziana, wondering what's up with you! I am departing for Tahiti on May 16 and hope to see you before my departure. Hope you enjoyed the book & hope to get it back before I leave! Homa as usual Saturday night, perhaps you would like to join us.....warm regards from Rose
divine mother durga devi in kunjapuri had a bit of a struggle going up those endless steps to the top after having gone through an operative procedure on my heart a few months earlier. but what a joy to have reached the top in the blessed presence of the divine mother .i couldnt help but shed tears of happiness unashamedly.Her divine presence was so strong and I could feel it that it sent to another blissful level. I drank in the divine current so deeply that I can still feel it even now.
I sat and meditated on Her on one of the benches at the end of which I went into the inner sanctum once again to see my beloved Mother again. This being my first trip Rishikesh I made a vow to return to this holy site again and if possible to spend a night or two if permitted by those two wonderful priestesses in charge .To those who are going to Haridwar and Rishikesh purely on a pilgrimage I recommend making this temple a must on your iteriniary. you will not regret it if you are in the right frame of mind.
Cross half the world? Tiziana Stupia Great,There is no long distance about love, it always finds a way to bring hearts together no matter how many miles there are between them.
Welcome to Australia Hi....I am also a virtual friend of Sameer. I was living in India and he contacted me via my blog and we also started talking a fair bit although only through gmail chat. I like that guy a lot and he has told me all about you and you coming to Australia. Now I am back in India after 4 months in Spain. I am touring this time (I have a Royal Enfield motorbike in India) for 6 months. Then back to Australia and maybe if you are still there I will meet you and Sameer one day. Good luck and great blog by the way! Paul
Thank You Alanis Morisette come to mind:

A Brilliant Blog - GR8 to have you posting again.
You may be amused that I have taken inspiration from you. Not quite such a profound renunciation but I have just stepped down as a Team Leader at work & from January will be working just 3 days a week.
Not quite so dramatic but my journey has been and continues on a more inward path with little external change. It does offer me I hope a real chance to build on my woefully weak relationship with the divine and it does come from the promptings of spirit. That's me following my dream
I hope Advices and Queries still provides amusement.
Beautiful... I love the way your life is unfolding Tiziana! And I'm so delighted you blogged about it...I was curious about the Australia trip! I love oz, hope you have a superb time there. Lots of love, positive vibes and virtual hugs. Donna.xxx
Life on-board My daughter is coming state side after some terrifying experience flying to German. The Ilona is a world unto itself. The experience you describe comfort my mind to know that the voyage sound like a whole new world of sights, sounds and friends are at hand. Thanks for the images. The best traveling approach is: The plan is no plan. Everyday is a good day if there are no expectation.
free anand krishna Your Excellency Â
I am writing to you to petition for the release of interfaith spiritual activist Anand Krishna who has been on hunger strike since the time of his detention in prison in Indonesia on  March 9th.
Anand Krishna is on trial in Jakarta accused of sexually assaulting a former student, Tara Laksmi which is a claim that he denies and although he has been very cooperative in attending the court trials since August 2010 and suffers from permanent heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure, at a hearing on March 9th,2011 in the South Jakarta District Court, the Judge Panel chaired ordered he be detained in prison.
Anand Krishna's lawyer Darwin Aritonang SH has pointed out that this action clearly violates the law as a person could be arrested before final verdict due to three points of consideration,which are preventing the suspect from removing evidence,preventing the suspect's escape and preventing the suspect from repeating hi/her criminal action and he said "All of those premises are irrelevant in this case".
The human rights figure and lawyer Adnand Buyong Nasution has also expressed his doubts over this procedure saying "I have been practicing my occupation in the field of law for 50 years.This is the first time I saw something like this. There is a judge who already pronounced a defendant guilty before he delivers the official verdict of court."
Anand Krishna denies the charge that has been brought against him and claims it was devised by elements who oppose his multi-religious views.
These unfortunate events have come about at a time when it appears that a small but very powerful section of the religious community is striving for the implementation of religious-based law in Indonesia despite the heterogeneous nature of it's population.
Anand Krishna's refusal to eat is a protest at the court's decision to jail him when he had been appearing in court since the trial got under way last August and pointing to a "conspiracy behind this foul drama" he said he would not give up his strike until he is freed "My hunger strike therefore goes on until I'm released  from this unlawful arrest" he said.
Through his actions, Anand Krishna has been an advocate of peace and understanding among the people's of his country Indonesia.
He has spoken to millions through television shows,radio talks,in-house trainings,books,newspaper interviews and articles,as well as daily meetings and workshops held at Anand Ashram (affiliated with the United Nations),One Earth Retreat Center, Anand Krishna Center and Graha Indonesia which he established.
I am therefore writing to you in order to draw your attention to the unjust treatment that Anand Krishna has received through his detention in prison and in the hope that you may be able to help in ensuring he is released from prison and faces a fair trial.
Kind regards
Gerard Barrie

Above student's Narration of Day to Day Experience is exactly feelt by all who attend Meditation Courses and is very useful for New Students to make their mind up and prepare for what to expect. Well Done
I’ve always wanted to travel the world, ever since I was a little girl. I dreamt about adventures in strange lands, treasures that were to be uncovered and destinies that had to be followed. When I turned 35 years old, the time to live my dream had finally come. I sold my house, surrendered my responsibilities and gave away most of my possessions to follow the call of my soul.
My journey started in 2007 with an overland trip to Pakistan that was only supposed to last for a few months. I left my hometown of Leamington Spa in England for a train trip that took me through Germany, Czech Rep... full info
