I live the mountains around Yosemite, where there is limited community around me. It remains to be seen how I can help people spiritually.

When I was followed Swami Muktananda, there was always hundreds or thousands of others present at the same time. One thing I loved about my time with Poonja Ji and Baba Amarnath was the opportunity to spend extended personal time with them, one on one, or in very small groups. I imagine that for the next couple years, that opportunity will be available for those who feel I have something to share with them.

I would love to have the time to do this spiritual work full time with a minimum of commercialization or fixed fees. I will have to balance that desire with the fact that I’m living with little financial resources and the need to earn something regularly to stay afloat.

I have been doing so by guiding rock-climbing and wilderness experiences, and selling landscape photography, both on a sliding scale basis. I may also be selling hand-loomed Himalayan Wool shawls on this site, to help support my teaching work and the simple weavers in the Ganges watershed of the Himalaya. The shawls will also be sold via sliding scale according to your means.

I’m open to travel to give Satsangs or workshops where I am invited if I am able. Thanks to those who attended my
workshop at Lightning in a Bottle this year. I'll be doing a few at the Sacred Spaces Camp at Burning Man 2010.

I am also open to sincere persons when they are in the Yosemite area. I do personalized one on one and small group retreats. Email me for more info. Your awakening is part of the poetry of your life and doesn't have to be by the numbers. Come commune with nature, and have a spiritual adventure.

Until my direction in teaching takes shape, just contact me with your proposal. Get on my email list for updates.

Peace and love

Baba
