Holding the Dream of the World is one of the ways the ancient shamans kept the dream of the world alive, in good terms, in good order.

Namaste'
friday is Holy day here however it seems to be starting a few days early. this means lots of water with color in it.. it's a huge festival and i'll see about coming early to get in krishna's office for a safe space and take lots of pictures.. everyone gets soaked with water full of colors.. crazy.. while i'm sure i've heard the story.. it's left my mind and it probably wasn't too clear in there anyway.. but i'll get it and post it..
we had the wedding couple at the house for breakfast today. She wore this beautiful blue sari with sequince all her gold jewelery and looked so lovely and finally happy.. Kamala made these amazing foods like green jack fruit that tasted like artichokes and it i think they were poor man's orchids and the buds that they boil and use as part of a pickle salad..i love this food.. i doubt i'll be able to replicate it.. but i'm enjoying it..
the documentary is finished i hear and i'll go look at it tomorrow.. for those of you viewing it on youtube when it gets on.. that's my voice.. wild..
the webpage is getting better so you can check it out at www.achildslife-nepal.org
the days are growing short for my time here and while i'm longing for beaches and beautiful water to help me clear my poor lungs.. i'll miss my nepali family. krishna is coming out this summer and hopefully kamala will follow with a job in california being a nurse.
i'm studying with Aama Bombo and finding it challenging.. speaking nepali in what should be poetic sounding chants.. not great in this arena.. but i'll be practicing right after this.
she is wonderful and there are many shamans in this area lone.. turns out krishnas father is a shaman as well and has been healing children for many years.. he really doesn't want anyone to know..
having wild rides on the local mini-buses.. very close call the other day.. life in nepal
well got to go... take care,, it's summer here so the streets are littered with foreigners. is fun to see different faces..
much love,
shoshana
