My faith deepened.  I was pushed so far out of my comfort zone that the only thing I could do was surrender.  This was 2020.  A year when metaphorically we were meant to see clearer, instead we were left to investigate our lives in an entirely different manner.  All things that no longer served us were meant to melt away—or burn away for that matter—only to return to be delivered as our destiny. For me, my career in comedy came to an abrupt halt.  Leading in to 2020 I traveled around the world a few times a month to either […]

Planting the Seed

8 Comments / Blog, The Adventures of Adi and David, The Elegant Universe / By /

Would you plant the seed of a tree even if you knew that you would never get to enjoy the shade?” In the silence of meditation, the most remarkable messages come flooding through when we reach a state that the Yogi’s call, “shuniya”.  Shuniya is that space where the mind stops calculating and simply witnesses all that is occurring without judgement or the need to change whatever is occurring.  Some call it the state of “zero” or “no-thing.”  This state is achieved when we use yogic asanas, mudras, chants and meditations that physically challenge and tire the body in order

I was amazed to witness it.  And by witness it, I mean watch for nearly two hours on YouTube the slow crumbling and breaking away of a pier at 61st street in Galveston.  Tropical Storm Beta (for only the second time in history we have reached the Greek alphabet to name storms) hadn’t even hit Galveston with her full impact and already her presence was being felt.  As waves churned in the Gulf the Fishing Pier took a very slow deliberate beating and eventually fell at about 10:05 pm local time.

Worn-Out Garment

“Death is nothing more than the casting-off of a worn-out garment.” Adi and I witnessed a traumatic event last evening.  The night started off innocently enough.  After a beautiful Sunday of relaxing around the house we decided to grab an evening snack at the Spot on the Seawall in Galveston.  Spending time by the water is healing.  The prana that the ocean offers us is the very energic source that gives our bodies vitality.  An evening snack by the water seemed to be a very fitting way to end a rather serene day.

Galveston Ghost Story

I never expected to be in this situation—living in Galveston and incidentally right next door to Adi’s parents.  I have settled into this odd reality where I am living equal parts Everybody Loves Raymond with a healthy dose of The Addams Family thrown in to make it feel a little less conventional.  Adi and I live in the Carriage House which many years ago was the servant’s quarters/horse stable that was in service to the Big House (the family calls it the Big House) right next door to it.  The Big House is a large Victorian home that has a
