At ease, men (and women, and Mark May I be the first to welcome you back, Harsha. From my semi-lurking perspective, the feeling around here over the past couple of weeks was much like a school class that was temporarily missing a teacher (there were no spitball fights, but likely only because that would be a hard trick to pull off on-line). Rest assured, however, that order was maintained by our other fearless leaders. Take care, all, and namasté- Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2001 Report Share Posted January 13, 2001 Hello Everyone. Much love to you all. I just came back to town this afternoon. Hope your holiday were filled with the joys of family (and arguments were kept to a minimum!) and that you had a wonderful new year as well. I very much enjoyed the three weeks that I was gone and had many laughs as well. School begins in a week or so for me. The third millennium has truly started. A new age always brings with it certain hopes and dreams and the energy and enthusiasm to pursue them and live them. I would wish for all of you success in attaining your true love in work and life. January 1, 2001 was the second anniversary of this list and we are all grateful to the people, too many to mention, who have enriched us with their presence, insights, sharing of heart felt experiences, beautiful poetry, stunning pictures, fascinating stories, and good natured humor. Recently Gloria and Amanda have actively helped in coordinating and moderating the activities of the list and that is deeply appreciated. Internet is a unique technology and one of the pivotal developments of our times. It has redefined the nature of relationships, how they are built, and how communities form. It used to be that once you moved away from a town, a city, a state, or even a neighborhood, you lost touch with people. With this technology, you have the chance to find those who share your interests and aspirations and remain part of and contribute to that Satsang community regardless of where you are in the world. There seems to be incredible beauty and vitality in that continuity. We are about to come out with the first issue of the HS Website and Magazine. Our dear friends and contributors to the list, Greg Goode and David Hodges have been working on the Web page and Gloria Lee in her role as the coordinator and editor has been soliciting and organizing materials. We have had help from TG, Linda, Holly, Robert, Mace, Jan, Jerrysan Rinpoche, Pham, Frank, Michael, Amanda, and many others. You will enjoy the quality of their insights and depth of wisdom in their writing. These contributors and editors are from all walks of life. They are counselors, astrologers, yogis, real estate agents, artists, scientists, poets, psychologists, lawyers, gardeners, teachers, students, and even brick layers (OK, maybe I made up the last one). But they have one thing in common and that is their joy of sharing their heart and life with us. For that we are grateful and humbled by their honest expressions. We will keep everyone informed as to when the site will be available. I did not check my @home e-mail for the last three weeks and due to mailbox becoming full, messages over the last 5 days or so have bounced. I will be catching up with everything later tonight. Again, the best wishes to you for the new year and the third millennium. Love to all Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was much fun and kindness here as always. A warm welcome back, Harsha. Thank you for the beautiful and generous holiday / I'm back greeting to us. And a happy belated two year b-day to . Love, Amanda. Thanks Mike and Amanda. By the way Mike, hopefully I am not like a stern school teacher. I am more like Sahajman! Sahajman! :-). It seems like everyone here was having a good time and there were some great posts. I am glad that Amanda stopped the discussion between Wim and Judi about Judi's list. That seemed to be going no where fast. Just catching up and thinking ahead about what has to be done over the next few days. First job, grocery shopping!

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2001 Report Share Posted January 14, 2001 Dear Harsha, You are back!! Glad to hear you had a good time. Jan has put us all to shame by making his website in 3 days, he's a boy wonder isn't he? You must see all his beautiful pictures. Well, first things first, get groceries. But how did you know I was a brick layer? Well, for a few days I was anyway, I made my own sidewalks and a patio. Sahajman! Sahajman! may have been in telepathic communication with you, but we lesser mortals miss the warmth of your smiling presence. Love, Gloria PS You know me, I would have thrown a wild party for the anniversary, but Amanda made us behave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2001 Report Share Posted January 14, 2001 Thanks, Mike... I'm always at ease when I scratch it. Love, Mark oops.. forgot Harsha was back. I'd better behave.

Judi feels so much happier at "the end of the rope... ranch." ________________ \ | \ | >O}(-~~~~~~~~~\| It felt like a game of hangman :-) Sorry... humor (?) can get pretty stabby... sorry!!! Thanks again, Amanda for stopping it. But that little bit of discussion that was there, gave me some deeper insight into the difference between enlightenment and realization. Ah, humor, yeah, Sahajman is quite somebody and I take his humor quite seriously (in a humorous way). I think the S-man has something up his sleeve that we really want to see pop out. I'm looking forward to a magazine article by him on "the main principles of the doctrine of Primal Noncentrality and the story of how I tried to teach it to Buddha."
