My baba was very determined to visit the oldest temple in #Bali. It’s known as the mother temple, #Besakih. As much as it’s an ancient site, it’s also a living shrine with villagers from all over #Bali shattering its solemn reserve with boisterous good cheer and engaging in rituals. A cremation ceremony was in progress while we were there and I’ve yet to see such a happy group of mourners. Do they know something about the nature of life and death we have missed? Something secret yet in full view of those who are seeking? I need to spend more time in stillness in #Bali to understand.

Avantgardens. The origin of the term “Tree hugger”
The first tree huggers were 294 men and 69 women belonging to the Bishnois branch of Hinduism, who, in 1730, died while trying to protect the trees in their village from being turned into the raw material for building a palace. They literally clung to the trees, while being slaughtered by the foresters. But their action led to a royal decree prohibiting the cutting of trees in any Bishnoi village. And now those villages are virtual wooded oases amidst an otherwise desert landscape.
Not only that, the Bishnois inspired the Chipko movement (chipko means “to cling” in Hindi) that started in the 1970s, when a group of peasant women in the Himalayan hills of northern India threw their arms around trees designated to be cut down. Within a few years, this tactic, also known as tree satyagraha, had spread across India, ultimately forcing reforms in forestry and a moratorium on tree felling in Himalayan regions.

Important in life to grow into quietness. To invest more into doing fewer things, with greater depth.

Been reflecting on my recent trip to The Department of Cosmetics and Perfumery at V.G. Vaze College in Mumbai with #SheetalDesai of @cplaromas where I had the very moving opportunity to present #LisaRayJasmineofIndia to the extraordinary students of COFVI, the College of Fragrance for the Visually Impaired. I have been wanting to visit ever since my wonderful partner @the7virtues met the students and told me about this programme which our fragrance #JasmineofIndia – and which YOU as a #retailactivist – supports every time a bottle is purchased.
COFVI is a unique education initiative in Mumbai, spear headed by our aroma partners @cplaromas which trains the visually impaired to become experts in the perfume industry.
Check out COFVI online for more on this inspiring program and how you can help. ‘What might be considered a disability by some, actually offers substantial expertise in a specialist area’
Thanks @the7virtues for partnering with me and opening this world to all my senses.

Here is an excerpt from a piece in #Vue magazine which encapsulates my view on the power and potential our digital alter egos offer: ‘People who are interested in transgressing against the constraints people suffer under in post-industrial society shouldn’t seek to reverse or halt technology: rather they should put it to a new, unwanted, unexpected, ironic use. The Machine need not crush spirituality, vitality, spontaneity — but in order to do so, like the Terminator, we need to get a hold of it and reprogram it. Along the way it might even get to understand our point of view.’ Thanks @simakumar for posting
