Dear Friend

This a great time to celebrate the freedom and spaciousness of one's highest nature. Keep company with that transforms the ordinary conditioned mind into into a mirror-like reflecting pool of the Self-luminous One.

 Freedom
 

Women in Prais of the Sacred


Water gains clarity when still,
how much more the mind!
Become like the sage
whose mind in repose
becomes the mirror of the universe.

Chuang Tzu, 3rd Century BCE


No prisons are more confining than the ones of which we are unaware.

Shakespeare, The Tempest

Thank you all for your notes of appreciation for our newsletter.

Everyone has the heart to be a true friend of the soul, an Anam Cara. By embodying that ideal ourselves we may serve to help another to find love and compassion within themselves.

Our highest nature is always manifest in relationship - to all other beings, to the environment, in relation to our own body and mind. Becoming mindful of the quality of our relationships allows us to learn where the light shines and where it needs to shine more. The ideal of Anam Cara is to continuously endeavor to expand the depth and the inclusiveness of the loving kindness we bring into every relationship, every moment, every breath.

If you have any suggestions, comments or sharings, for our newsletter please don't hesitate to e-mail me and I'll do my best to respond.

The Anam Cara Foundation is a 501 (C) 3, non-profit educational organization dedicated to teaching meditative practices. Our non- denominational programs are open to all. There are free meditation instructions and downloadable audio files of guided meditations on the meditation page of our
website.

Thank you for the many ways you have shown support for The Anam Cara Foundation. Because of your gifts we can offer free programs and instruction to thousands of people. If you would like to make a tax deductible donation please send it to address listed below or go to our website where you can make a secure online donation. Click HERE. That link will also bring you to our links with Sounds True and purchasing gifts and products from them will help support The Anam Cara Foundation.

I look forward to welcoming you in person to our programs once the back injury I've sustained allows me to travel and offer programs once again. I have been able to return to offering phone consultations and people have been making appointments to speak with me or use Skype for video calls. It's great seeing folks again!

With all my appreciation and love,
I thank you all.

May all beings realize complete freedom from suffering and may all our actions reflect only wisdom, compassion, patience and love.
