Life Changing

January 8, 2016/in Blog Snippets /by balisilent

Dear Bali Silent Retreat, I arrived here at Bali Silent Retreat in tears, and now 6 days later I depart with a smile on my face. This short time has been so very trans-formative, such that I found the tools I need to be satisfied in life; to be in the ‘here and now’; to […]

Canang (pronounced chanang) is the little orange box as well […]

This is simple message but so very deep. The name of this Balinese-Hindu tradition is ‘kain poleng’; Fabric Black and White. In […]

Creek and Waterfall of Truth

The Truth?

July 1, 2015/in Blog Snippets /by balisilent

We are forever seeking the truth on our never ending quest, reaching within and seeking without. What is the truth? We ask this at different times and levels of our passage through life. Is it a static offering of information that remains forever the same, always reliable and able to be called upon to offer […]

Dragonflies, Fireflies, and Lightning – does it count as a meditation experience?

June 6, 2015/in Blog Snippets /by balisilent

Banana

Bananas Rock!!!

May 5, 2015/in Blog Snippets /by balisilent

Whenever I bump into a banana I find my protective mechanisms kick in. Yes, Mr. Banana is the cute, comical and helpless little brother I never had. “If other chefs make fun of you again”, I whisper into their yellow ears, “I will kick their snobbish asparagus blanching butts”. Bananas deserve more respect! Time for […]
