Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

......maybe it was that statue of the Buddha sitting crosslegged on mom & dad's coffee table that instilled the wonder in me from since forever. Turned onto Alan Watts & Jack Kerouac in let's call em the Hippie daze, I've had a hunger for the poetry and thought of the East, from Ryokan to Rumi and Dogen to Sri Aurobindo, it's
been a steadfast search, a train that's hard to catch......

I gotta add 'crazy clouds,' paramahansa yogananda, and paul reps... we've traveled many of the same roads, amigo, and our souls are not for the worse.

orient-related objects at home when I was a kid...let´s see: seven little statues of chinese men, Herman Hesse´s Siddharta, Lin Yutang´s "Una hoja en la tormenta" and Lobsang Rampa´s books.

Lobsang Rampa! I read several of those when I was a teenager... I sure liked those. Thx for the reminder...
