Swami Candela Tells All
Swami Candela Dear Readers,

 

This holiday season,may you

cry for joy,

laugh at yourself,

make a silly face,

skip around the block,

find your lost car keys,

donate to a good cause,

pray for the less fortunate,

hear the music in your soul,

read between the lines of life,

reconnect with your inner child,

enjoy the company of a stranger,

love like you've never loved before,

dance to the beat of your turn signal,

make cookies for no one in particular,

meditate to the pounding of your heart,

make up a song and sing it very loudly,

paint a picture with brightly colored paint,

put on a shadow puppet show for children,

feel the vibration of your crystalized thoughts,

and light an inner flame that burns for an eternity.

  

Sincerely,

Swami Candela of the Third Millennium
