there are two Paths which lead up the steepest of all terrain toward the Highest of all possible summits (and ilg can speak here from direct experience): one is the renunciate/easier Path…
the other?
is the Householder Path…
take today, for instance…
upon returning home from my deeeeeeply rewarding and gratefully well-attended HP Yoga® Workshop on the Energetics Toward Enlightenment, ilg was graced by the sight of my two Beloved Ladies, already deeply immersed within the Dharana of pumpkin carving….a meditation into which i gleefully joined in…
here is what ilg had to put up with:
last shot: after i told Dewa that eating raw pumpkin ‘guts’ was filled with Beta-carotene, she immediately began prancing and singing to a self-composed tune:
‘i eat pumpkin guts,
cuz pumpkin guts are good for me,
they have carrot-TEEN!’
Ananda’s pumpkin carving skill set is ever elevating…
everything we are reflects in our pumpkin face carving…
upper L-R: Dewa’s (with daddy’s help), our family Unattached pumpkin
lower L-R: my Padmasambhava-inspired pumpkin, and Amma’s pumpkin
“How we do ANYthing is how we do EVERYthing…”
so, what does YOUR Pumpkin face look like?
