Got back from my September trip a week ago: home to Bristol for Penny Brohm cancer care course & to see my old friend Jonny
(with friend Jonny from Uni - weather was amazing!) |
Good to be back on terra firma proper (though the ground is not far away from my badass (ironic) car-cum-stapler (thanks Jonny!). hell of a lot of miles covered with all my gear in the back but a very positive trip (I almost wrote 'tour' - force of habit!). Got into some pretty esoteric stuff at the ashram ('reality is a circle whose centre is everywhere & circumference is nowwhere' - nice!), as well as a mini drama ('there is NO fish at the ashram'! honest mistake but o, foolish me) and some very positive yoga and chanting (reminds me of singing hymns at school except the words are so much more profound, oh and I actually enjoy it now!) and of course some so-called selfless work. I cook every day now at home (sometimes twice or thrice a day) so was fun to help out in the ashram kitchen putting together my indian spice mix's etc. Always a pleasure to be in Rama the gardener's place of work too admiring the rainbow chard 'forest' amongst others! A greens-addict paradise in the polytunnels at this time of year to perfectly compliment the moss paradise it is inside & around the surrounding area of the ashram. From my day down by the river...

Other news, am still having an awful lot of trouble with my digestion ... keep smoking people. You might get colon cancer then you can have a botched op which then leads to your having to go to the toilet over 10 times a day for god knows how long! 6 months plus after my colostomy reversal but still ... uuugh... so tired of this shit (sorry to be so literal).
Recommendation from thehighly recommended Peter Hinde. See how we go with these...
Pretty interesting reading. They say discovering this stuff pretty much wiped out counytwide Dysentary from the UK.
