    I’ve not gotten to the Philo yet; I’m intrigued! Completely enjoyed the first bit of the Runes of Flight … But he’s so cute, I need to plant a tree! I have to read the rest and get to the philosophy. I’m thrilled!

      Ah, okay. Yeah, Runes is my baby. Agnes has been knocking around in my head for years at this point, and I hope to do her justice one day and write an actual, real novel.

      Fair warning on the philosophy stuff, I’m batterscained, and it’s a bit rambly. If you like nondualism, Hinduism, Vivekananda, etc, it might be interesting. I need to post more. :/

        Long live Agnes!

        Yes, I’m a bit scattered, myself. I am not familiar with Vivekananda, but look forward to your introduction at your blog. I’m a bit familiar with Kalima, Shiva and a few others. It’s been a long time but I was a bit familiar with Zen, Dzogchen, philosophical taoism , Tiibetan Buddhism… It would take a lifetime of immersion to become intimately familiar, I feel, but I think I get the general gist. I look forward to learning with you! Thanks so much for engaging conversation.

          Anytime!

          And I’m sure there are much better introductions, but Vivekananda is a downright gas to learn about. Either the first or second (I forget) blog post was an introduction to the Swamiji and his address at the world’s parliament of religion. I hope you enjoy. :)
