there’s a common theme amongst many of my friends, girlfriends in particular, of reaching out for life help or guidance in myriad sources.
experimentally seeking answers to life’s questions in many different forms.

had dinner with one such dear friend while she was in ny last weekend. she spent a couple of weeks at the humaniversity in the netherlands a few months ago. her experience was similar to that of other friends’ experiments. take yourself out of your comfort zone for an extended period, have a group or an individual press you past breaking point and take in all the frustrations, disappointments and unfulfilled desires that come gushing out. other friends have turned to hypnosis therapy, past life and in-utero regressions, meditation and more)

i am quite excited about trying all of these tools myself over the coming years.

amusingly, much of our dinner conversation last weekend revolved around my friend’s quest to get married or more specifically to have babies (another common theme amongst my friends). the philosophical underpinning of the humaniversity is based on melding eastern osho thought with western physicality (at least that was my understanding based on our sake-doused dinner chat). and then a few days later she emails me this really great osho interview.

obviously this dude is my hero of the week.

    If there was ever evidence that one shouldn't pay any attention to charisma and presence, it is this vid. The man's ideas are a waste of space and yet his pregnant pauses, his thoughtful earnestness, his dignity, his clothing, all imply otherwise.

    Your hero for only this week, not forever, I hope.
