Tat Tvam Asi {That Thou Art}
I have experienced what it is like to feel passionately about something --
being immersed in absolute measures to dedication, devotion and
perfection; thus emerging a performer, creator, actor, and a teacher/master all rolled into one.
This includes dance, nature and the performing, literary, linguistic & musical Arts; besides following classical yoga as a way of life.
Despite the gravity carried in the above words, my inner core retains a childlike (and not childish) nature, that embraces spontaneity. Laughter is very much the elixir of life. I'm always 'acting the goat', being a total goofball, with a quirky sense of humor :-)
I have lost interest in the outer material world, and it is the inner world that captivates me; which I seek to discover, explore and perfect. My end goal is to progress on the path of yoga, and get as close to self-realisation as is possible within this lifetime.
Naturally, my life revolves around the primary interests of organic farming, self-sustainable existence, and a wholistic development/upbringing for children.
