My primary influences, in no particular order, include the early theosophists, Alice Bailey, Krishnamurti, Yogananda, Ramana Maharshi, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Stephen Levine, Ram Dass, the eastern philosophies (Taoism, Buddhism, Hinduism etc.), many western transpersonal therapies, Reiki and a collection of vibrational (energy and sound) healing therapists and metaphysical teachers, Bob Dylan, John Prine, John Lennon and quite a few other musicians, artists and poets. In another lifetime I might have become a rock drummer or the like. Instead I pursued writing, picked up a journalism degree in the late 60's, went instead into private retail business for a few years, before tiring of all that, studying energy healing and metaphysics and basically devoting the rest of my life and writings to the pursuit of self-knowledge. Inspired by Ramana and the rest, all I can say today is "I am that". I hope you find something beneficial here.
Accomplishments: waking up - the only worthy accomplishment
