“Winning Handshake: Steve Ilg gets a good-luck handshake from Joy Kilpatrick before leaving for the snowshoe/ski transition area on top of Mt. Taylor via bus Saturday morning before the 2006 Mt. Taylor Winter Quadrathalon. Ilg’s team, Team Mountain Yogis, won the team class with a time of 3:48:14. See how local racers fared on Page 1 of today’s Sports section. [Photo by John A.

You know…
sometimes the creative artistry of Brahman is just sooooo beautifully…well, exquisite.

by sheer ‘accident’ a series of events from within our Sangha led Joy (Ananda) to come across this precious gem on the internet of which we had no idea…

i have had the dubious honor of being on the cover or featured in several books and magazines as the NY Times, LA Times, OUTSIDE, MENS JOURNAL, MEN’S FITNESS, WRITERS DIGEST, blah, blah, blah…
yet,
you know what Tribal Brothers and Sisters?
i have more of a smile within my HeartSpace by this beautiful photo of Joy and i in the Gallup, New Mexico newspaper than anything else…i Love the care and accuracy of the text (see above text beneath photo) and just the Zen of the photo…

call me sappy, however,
heck,
this is precisely why
it is sooooooo important to just
get yourself to Toe That Start Line…
cuz when you do;
Magic, Mystery, and the Divine arises!

my Life Mission is now complete; i’ve made the NY Times, the LA Times, and….(drum roll…)…the Gallup Independent!

now, i can turn my Senses inward to complete my SamYogic training…
what?
no?
not yet?
oh…okay…
i will hang onto my ‘public life’ until age 50 as the Ancient Ones and my Teachers told me to…

May Your Practice Be Strong and Sincere Today,
thanks for reading,
thanks for Being Here Now to inJoy the Ride…

OM SO TI,
coach ilg
