Angela Farmer and Victor van Kooten

We had a great time in the cool British weather, a welcome relief after a long hot time in Eftalou.
At the moment it looks like the wall of Luke and Satya's living room is coming out of my throat,
but I just ate some turmeric roots for health reasons. We had a great workshop in Ashburton and
we thank Satya for organizing this course and hope to come back next year...

I know. There is a fear for visiting official holiday resorts and places in the warmer countries, since there were many attacks on tourists lately. Now that the Greek islands became places where humanitarian aid is practiced on a daily basis, instead of the endless talks within the EU of how to deal with this "problem" based upon economic calculations and keep the refugees out, we see that tourist agencies have cancelled flights! Is this the results of the breaking news? Breaking lives? Breaking holidays?

It is unbelievable to see so many people in Molyvos during the winter and upto now... I know there are fears in Lesvos that during the coming season the usual tourism will not show up and many charter flights has already been cancelled, but look at nature, look at the sea! It is all there, as if nothing has been written about the arrival of people risking their lives looking for a chance to find some peace! All the work that is done to make them feel welcome as they reach the shores of Greece, has been made into a disaster by the attitude of the EU

What more can we do? Besides working into our own deep cellars to clean them out of all our misconceptions about: religion, science, countries and borders...Borders...Separations.....This belongs to this and that belongs to that....and yet all we tried to find is a reason of why we are here in this wonder of creation: the WORLD...still inseparable. There where science meets religion, politics and poetry, diving down into nothing and coming up again: our living mythology: life.
Have a wonderful New Year.
