La FRANCE et l’ESPAGNE, 2019
Ma compréhension et mon expérience sont que lorsque nous vivons en communion plutôt que dans le déni de nos corps, nous pouvons accéder non seulement aux vastes domaines de l’information dans nos formes physiques, mais nous sommes aussi en contact … Continue reading
Why Meat? Why Now?!
Yet another inveterate vegetarian confided to me the other day that she has been having such strong cravings for meat lately that she ended up ‘giving in’. Not at McDo’s, mind you – she made sure it was organic and … Continue reading

File under “Dilemmas of Consciousness” 😉 In the last little while, I’ve found myself speaking with a lot of people about the difference between adrenaline-based and nesting sexuality. The passion of the first is fueled by the perception of danger, … Continue reading
WORDS and WOMEN

ART and (R)EVOLUTION
This was written in May, 2013, and appeared in The Heretic Magazine, Volume 4 (http://www.amazon.ca/The-Heretic-Magazine-Volume-4-ebook/dp/B00ELOHY9Q). Recent conversations and attending a performance of Tom Stoppard’s Travesties have provoked this re-publication. ‘Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life’ … Continue reading
DEEP RESISTANCE…TENDING PEACE (on Gian & Charlie)
” You claim an anticlerical tradition, but but feign ignorance of how it differs fundamentally from Islamophobia: the first was built during a hard, long and bitter fight against a Catholic clergy of formidable power, which had – and still … Continue reading
