My
Journey
I
was the last one in my family to learn meditation. My younger sister had just studied with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. After
she taught my parents to meditate, she persuaded me to learn. I told myself
it was to release stress, for I was reluctant to admit that I needed help,
and I was resistant to anything spiritual. After all, I had an advanced
history degree, spoke Japanese fluently, and had served in the U.S. Foreign
Service. I was above such stuff. I felt that meditation
was a fringe phenomenon.
As
the benefits of meditating began to accrue, however, my skepticism was
challenged. Sure, I was losing stress and becoming filled with childlike
wonder, but where would this lead? One day I was rereading The Analects
of Confucius, a book I had studied for my degree, when suddenly certain
phrases appeared in bold. The text was not actually written that way,
but some unseen force was putting some of it into bold format as I turned
the pages. I also knew that these enlivened words were Absolute Truth.
All doubts started falling away, and from that day forward I began to
accept that we are spiritual beings, and that God exists.
I
became a meditation instructor, and devoted the next 15 years to both
my academic work and my spiritual work. But, a day came when I needed
personal help for a deep crisis, and my world was shattered again. Yogananda,
in his book Autobiography of a Yogi, suggests that when we need
help to call upon Babaji, a famous Indian avatar. Within twenty seconds
Babaji was at my side showering me with love and energy. At the time I
could not understand how he traveled so rapidly from India to Tokyo. In
any case, he was in the room and I was crying. Later, I came to realize
that he had been by my side for lifetimes, and that I was only beginning
to comprehend this.
From
that point forward my academic work dropped away. I began to focus on
spiritual teaching, counseling and healing others. Before, because I had
been needy, my serving others was half-hearted. Now I had found my calling,
and the joy of serving was primary.
Since
1987 I have been carefully instructed in the unique attributes of human
souls, their origins in the universe, their history on this planet, their
archetypes, their talents, their shadows. I have been given the ability
to direct lost souls to the light, to communicate with spirits, and to
facilitate the evolution of depressed souls. Those that I have served
have rewarded me with their gratitude.

In
Memory of Emma (July 23rd, 2003 - February 24th, 2007)

What's the use of carrot tops, or even carrots?
What's the use of broccoli leaves, or corn cobs stripped of
kernels?
What's the use of melon rinds?
What's the
use of newsprint on the floor?
What's the use of roses past their prime?
What's the use of my face
without your licks?
What's the use of silence without your soul
to fill it?
What's the use?
