Linda's Yoga Journey 
I love that poem, it invokes for me a sense of what I feel in meditation sometimes, when I think I kind of get a little closer to my own Essence Nature, god, whatever you want to call it.
I will die in Thailand, a crazy old yogini and be cremated there, with my ashes being spread over the land, giving back to that which has supported me.

I visited my maha astrologer last week and gave her my timeframe for my trip….the planets say very interesting things….;) we shall see….
svasti, I like the “crazy old yogini” part…for years I've had the same visions, so to speak, in meditation, of me years from now….what I'm wearing, where I'm sitting, what my hair is like….I know where I am in my vision, but I won't say….
we shall see….;)

I have become fascinated recently by influence of Yoga on writers, particularly the “American Trancendentalists”–Whitman, Emerson, and Thoreau. I was so surprised to seeing their references to the Gita and Upanishads in their writing. I just didn't notice that when I studied them as an English major.
Now here is Jack London, sounding like he just stepped out of an Upanishad himself. Now I have to go figure out whether he, to was steeped in Eastern wisdom, or is just an example of one of my personal favorite themes–the universality of Yoga philosophy?
Perhaps you already know the answer.
In any case, thanks for the enjoyable intellectual provocation.
