  • Wake Up Democrats (Part 1)

  • Yoga in Practice: Bhakti Yoga
    If Yoga were like fine wine, Hatha Yoga would surely be the wine for export. It could be said that Raja Yoga and Kundalini Yoga got a fairly strong foothold outside India, as well.

  • Why Are We Still in Iraq? (Part 1)

  • Live for the Moment and Put Worry on Hold - Part 2
    For once, I am going to endorse procrastination. When it comes to worrying, you should put it off. Do everything you like to avoid worrying. Worries don't help us; and in fact, they make many bad situations worse. On top of that, most of what we worry about never comes to pass.

  • The Day the Music Died - 911
    The rest of the world is puzzled by this sudden "about face" in the care for human rights. The terrorists and our former allies should get a copy of an American history book.
