Wow, just saw Kundun the scorcese flick about the Dalai lama as I pounded my first little bottle of rum in a while. the brand is "Old Monk Rum" from India. As it turns out I am not broke but my higher self had hidden my allowance in a place where my lower self couldn't find it.

Ive given myself to a new master for a period of ten days. A hindu Indian descendant of the warrior caste of these mountains. He is an artist gem collector painter and master wood carver. He's teaching me how to carve wood.

I've built a small temple in my room and pray there every night. Im writing a new book and getting a lot of video audio photo documentation.

Now I feel more intense about everything that is happening around me.

Funny how the monks here and the Dalai Lama remind me so much of the Jedi.

I have a new good guitar and am practicing for the tour in the motherland this summer. I welcome you all to join me.
