It is important to understand, no matter how much you may […]

Anyone who has ever met Adi knows that she can convince almost anyone to try something unconventional.  I call her Lucy after Lucy Ricardo on I Love Lucy.  Lucy always convinced Ricky of doing things that he wasn’t particularly fond of doing; this is where I come in.  I am Ricky to Adi’s Lucy.  Whenever she says, “I have an idea” I know I’m in for trouble (in a good way).  Adi informed me a couple of weeks back

The experiences prompted him to pursue understanding how and why the changes occurred and how his discoveries may assist humankind to “address the causes of the endless stream of spiritual distress and

The following is an excerpt from my new book:   Memoirs of a Rennaissance Man: Purifying the Mind, Body, and Spirit…and the 40 Days That Follow… An Aspirant’s Account The Grace of Shuniya The crisp Texas weather continues.  During my practice today I consciously brought my awareness to the state of Shuniya (shoo-nee- yuh).  In essence, this is where we bring our mind to a place of “zero”.  In Kundalini Yoga, the goal of Shuniya is to assist you in improving your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being and health, enhancing your self-esteem and self-confidence and enabling you to develop healthy
