SHOCKS & SURPRIZES of my Life - strait into

Aquarian freelove healing energy yoga

Intro - born into normal middle class family i rebelled from 10 on, alternating between being good & bad, unpredictably. My inner life was a secret mystery to me, i rarely shared with anyone till late teens, late at nite. Then after graduating from college, smoking pot, teaching school & Gestalt psychodrama encounter groups & sensitivity traianing life opened up deep possibilities i still hide from all. "Normal" plastic, cars, booze, red-meat, lust, smoking & faking real life made me tired & repeatedly sick. So i gladly gave them up slowly from '64 on, trying to succeed, conform & be good. The spirit of truth came thru Tim Leary, Rudolf Dreikurs, China, anti Vietnam

peace movement, Ralph Nader, Edgar Cayce, hippy acid rock, long hair freedoms & wild dancing helped my into trances of cosmic awareness, still too shocking to integrate into daily life, until Gwen left me alone in '71, sobbing out my need for family & opening to Yoga, R.D. Laing, spirit Willie Reich, Buck Fuller, cooperative parenting, freelove & Nature. From '71 on i enjoy doing free community service with people who like, love or need me in any natural way herenow growing together in simple trusting truth learning about how the universe works in nature & our bodymind.

UNIVERSING 77-9

‘76 - At the anual Renaissance Fair in Marin, Cali i met a young women, we became lovers & I stayed at their Polarity

therapy home center in Forestville, Sonoma doing some deep healing there. Once a angry husband hit me in the head while i was simply sitting with his wife, who was deep breathing into her fear. Of course i cried & we forgave each other, growing more trusting. We shared loving space into spring '77, as i traveled between SF & their country home meeting many souls into seeking truth, love &or alternatiave self healing.

'77 - In spring I attended big indoor newage convention helping at info booth where I met a loving masseuse who took me home for touching. Universing transformed into Unity Fair in June in SF civic center plaza with 100 service booths, music, art celebration

I returned to Oregon with a new lover to the Country Fair

where we joined a hippy super bus (with 10 others) to Rainbow gathering in NM Ghia national forest valley. In Death valley(CAli) we accidentally left her at a ‘rest stop’ in a daze of super hot desert. The bus engine burned up at east end of desert, 10 of us hitchiked to the ‘gathering’, where met many open souls, had 5 sexual lovers, assisted a group bioenergetic healing workshop & a psychodelic‘baby rosewood seed’ bliss- ball group of 100 tripers. I got depressed & diarea after the gathering & was struck by lightening while leaving during a sudden desert thunder storm in the parking field while standing in a pool of water. I screamed out the shock & breathed for hours, hitching to Albuquerce, stay a week & hitched to Flagstaff where I was busted for old probation violation(on the national cop crime computer data base) as I was found sleeping in a graveyard after seeing the Exorcist 2: the Heritic movie about Bishop Pike & pastlives. I was carried out & taken to jail for a week, extradited to Lane Co. jail, a month before a hearing to sentense me to OSPeitentuary for 3 years for being poor, radical & not paying child support, from conviction in 75.

In Ore. state pen & quickly adjusted to the culture shock by passing their battery of tests to ‘place’ me in a correction program.

I attended their ‘community college’ within prison; did weekly Kundalini yoga classes with a Swami in
