It was his father (and his) who was/were my lifelong teachers. I'm hearing great things about Zia, though! I believe my email address is in the "about me" thing on the side of this page, but it's Eklutna@gmail.com. My name is Amidha, so named after that particular Buddha by Pir Vilayat. Please write anytime! Best wishes, Amidha Hello, Kyri–

(?) I am an student of Pir Vilayat, and initiate, per the Grace and Presence of Pir Zia near Thanksgiving 2007. I bumped onto this site this morning. As I am just now observing the site I am not sure that some of what I want to share or say is always best served on a public forum. Please advise me of a more direct way to be in touch with you, and your exact preferred name. Thank you so much for what I have read and observed this morning, and for what it indicates: a gem in the wash of tides. I will re-read as much as I can in the interim. all the best~ Very sincerely yours, kyri~ Good morning, Eklutna…… (?)

After nearly 40 years of practice, I am only beginning to truly "get" all this... Must be hope for us all, eh? Yes and yes.

Just this morning I was reviewing Stephen Levine's Healing into Life & Death - reflecting on the meaning of true healing. He says that that he can no longer pray that someone’s suffering ceases – only that they find whatever deep healing is available to them. I find that the prayer that suffering be relieved is fundamental. Later he writes about Black Elk’s admonition that we walk in a sacred manner. He interprets this to mean that “we make art of life, to attend to each moment as though it were the last, to take each step as if it were the first. To breathe love and awareness into this tiny body, entering the greater body we all share . . . each step must be taken lightly not with force, not creating more self, becoming more of a doer, more of a separate identity which draws suffering upon itself. . . . When we walk in a sacred manner nothing throws us off balance for nothing is identified with as self, as the walker . . . instead all is experienced as sacred the process unfolding as divine moment provided for our healing . . . “ I believe that your ending metta invocation breathes love, awareness and opens us to the greater body we all share. Thank you for sharing this Eklutna.

I also wonder, sometimes, if our environment has become so toxic that it cannot "get through"... but still would try it before resorting to surgery or any allopathic treatment.
