“Daddy? I’m Ganesha…”
“You are?”
“Yes, because Ganesha removes ‘obstickles’ and he lives inside my heart.”
Less than a month ago…the Plastic Surgeon said it would require several weeks of dubious recovery to see if Dewa’s lip and mouth would structurally heal correctly after her sledding incident……within one week of WF Nutrition? Dewa’s lip and mouth self healed at Godspeed (aka; The Speed of Enlightenment). we crushed up the MAP Amino Acids for her, she suckled at SUNRIDER’s Sunbars, and we doused her lip/mouth and skull with the Sacred Water of Asea…
…and today…even with significant psycho/spiritual trauma?
Dewa and i skied from Top To Bottom, Chapman Ski Hill without falling…
OM NAMAHA, NAMA MAHAYOGI JESUS!
OM NAMAHA, NAMA MAHAYOGI SANTA!
from our Clan to yours…enjoy, sweat through, and appreciate the Holidays!!!

only difference with WF?
we don’t just Sit…we SWEAT…c’mon…
after two weeks of snowshoe training here at Ski Hesperus, my tracks – both old and new – appear to ilg as Tibetan Prayer Banners; for each one was made with the Sacred Mantra as background to my heaving cardio efforts…
we skied hard, crashed hard, and when we got back home? Dewa took her first nap in over 3 months!

My Tibetan spiritual teachers first taught me about “beyuls”…spiritual vortices which exist on Mother Earth but “can’t be found on maps.”… Beyuls, you see, are not just imaginary lofty realms; they are earth chakras which reveal themselves to be a type of Shangra-La to those yogis whose Vibrational Fitness allows them to slip beneath the “Velvet Ropes” to access a secret, hidden land which ‘vibes’ at various Levels according to the meditative fitness of the yogi exploring them. Well, today, this feeble mountain yogi known as ilg discovered another level of Beyul within my Sacred Chi-ldhood h(om)e peaks of the La Plata during a 3-mile uphill skate ski and a rather dangerous descent….c’mon, i’ve got some great pics and teachings to share…
still walking the talk…you can tell it’s ilg’s season! i just get fired up in Autumn and my training stats and sadhana reflects it! NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT to replicate my physical training stats and low caloric intake…
