Hi everyone — both my regular Imaginary Readers and those passers-by who find this blog for whatever reason–
I’m doing fine here, fast approaching my third month’s anniversary here at the ashram. Each day continues to be busy from end to end, such that by time bedtime arrives, I find myself surprised it’s so late so soon. No worries though — my health continues to be very good, and I even make sure I have downtime. The last few nights, I rewatched the director’s cut of the SF channel’s "Dune" miniseries on DVD; probably will start on "Children of Dune" tonight or tomorrow.
One thing I wanted to mention, so that it’s abundantly clear to all — I am in no way, shape, or form any official… well, anything with respect to Swami Kaleshwar or the Penukonda ashram. Not a spokesperson. Certainly not a certified teacher.
Anything I might say about my insights should be taken with a nice shakerload of salt, ‘kay? As well as recognition that they’re mine alone, a personal thing, and probably not terribly applicable to anybody else.
I’m just a student here — and a very new one at that. This is why, for example, I say very little about what exactly I’ve learned. Because I may either misrepresent it, or worse, actually not understand what I think I do.
If any of Kaleshwar’s teachings interest you, I strongly urge you check out the official ashram website, HERE. You can learn about the New Ancient Traditions, the Five Elements, Vaastu, and lots more — but most importantly of all, everything on that site is approved by Swami Kaleshwar himself.
Anything you’ve seen or read on this blog? All mine — including any errors, omissions, or other mistakes in representation or understanding. As I said, I’m just a peanut here, and every day come face to face with the sheer gulf of my ignorance.
But every day, with my tiny shovel, I dump a little more sand into that hole in the ground. Perhaps eventually, I’ll have filled it enough so that I can traverse the expanse and see what’s on the other side.
Hey.. do not be concerned.. we know it is a personal experience blog.
Are you reading on US Mid-term elections? Love to hear your thoughts.
Cheers :)

Beautifully and humbly written my friend.
peace.
Thanks, gents.
No, Racer, haven’t been following too closely. I know about the Lieberman mess, and the GOP candidates beginning to eat their own…but specifics, no.
Main worry is whether those elections will be free and fair — or if those eminently hackable Diebold machines will deliver an undeserved win to the Republicans again.
Your “69 wives” miss you! Please post more often, if you can. I would like to hear more about every day life on the ashram, what you are studying, what your Swami does and what he prescribes for you, etc… (I have visited the official website, and, no offense to you, it’s not a good read). cheers, clm
Aww, hello Carole!
Yes ma’am, I hear and I shall endeavor to obey. Not today though — I have a killer migraine from hell. But I’ll try to get more regular about posting again. Just haven’t been sure anybody was reading… plus things’ve been really busy of late.
My love to the “69 wives” — Stephy and I miss you all, too.

It’s so good to keep up with you via the blog! Is there somewhere I can send that check? :-/
big love,

Sweet ladies, I send love from around the world. I would love to hear more of the details of your day to day lives as well. We’re all frantically curious about what you could be doing, so far away from home and the 9 to 5.
PS Phil is making me watch all the Battlestar Galactica eps to get me ready for Season 3, and I’m glad he’s doing it. It’s awesome.
Yes, we’re here, and though I don’t get here often, will continue to stop in. I’ll be in Southern India around March ’07. Looking forward to a sail from Thailand to Sri Lanka then Cochin. Thinking of you and wishing you great learnings!
