“…Slowly, what he respected before he now despises, and in this change he uses words as an implacable weapon. Human shall now mean not-animal, the female shall become a servant, belonging to man. Man shall be the entire species, of mother and father, only father shall rule, while the daughter shall not share in the [...]

Seeing life so clearly, outside my mindful self
Childhood and goodness, stored upon a shelf
Grown to be a member, within, but so without
Joining in mock laughter, leads to a silent shout
All, so very unimportant, all so very right
Flaring of emotion, leads to another fight
Life carries not the trouble, it is what i accept
True Love holds not [...]

“Mystic Meditations” a new book from Asanaro
Here is a very interesting study, discussing the relation between age and happiness. Apparently they found that happiness follows a ‘U’ shaped curve, starting out high and going down through the 20s, 30s, and 40s, before rising again when people are in their 50s and up! At the same time, people were most angry in [...]

It was actually 6:00 Am when I started my Boabom session at the [...]

“… and it feels so good…”
Boabom is hard

Assembling the wall.

Any student who enjoys Boabom, who tries to understand its peculiar Ways, especially Logak, will find this poem by Lao-Tzu enriched by the perspective of the Art.
Stretching a bow or filling a teacup, it is the same:
For best results, yield.
Over-harden a blade and it will soon break;
Stuff a house full of riches and it is not safe;
Define [...]
Solstice approaches.
Good friends, fresh air, lots of food.
Boabom outside!
Elegant Yuas
Phrased together as a class.
There is sweet music …
Paralyzed with Fear,
Gaunai Humiliation.
Student’s first logak.

Breathing through movement.
Barely can do this new move.
Samut: “Too easy.”
Balance improves, but…
Flailing arms and legs. Watch out!
Someone yells “Timber!”
Angry arrival.
Meditation in movement.
Why was I so mad?
– The Other Anonymous Student (Boabom North)

Stillness is the move.
It is time for my second Boabom Samae, and for a little reflection. I find myself wanting to express something … ephemeral. The feeling is one of transition. It is said that we find it difficult to notice real changes in our personalities because we are biased to perceive continuity. Yet I can almost hear [...]
