Ego La La la

Years ago, near Santa Cruz, California, a member of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang started a fight with a tourist that turned into a melee. Asked what had happened to trigger his wrath, the biker declared, "He touched my bike. Man, you touch my bike, you touch me." This may seem like an extreme example of what the yogic texts call identifying the self with its limiting adjuncts, but it's not so different from what we so-called rational people do.

What do you identify yourself with?

Buddhist and Vedantic teachers are fond of saying that the ego is like the blue of the sky, or the apparent puddle in the middle of a desert-dry highway. It's an optical illusion, a simple mistake in the way we identify ourselves. That's why fighting your ego is like boxing with your reflection in the mirror, or trying to rid yourself of something you don't have. Now that neurobiologists seem to have reduced the sense of I-ness to a couple of brain chemicals, the ego looks more than ever to be a kind of involuntary mechanism, something beyond our personal control, just like the reflex that makes us go on breathing when we sleep.

So what are we fighting for?

Or is the problem that our egos isn´t big enough to stand above it all?
Ahamkara-love. 4 real!

Time to set new goals!

At this moment I´ve reached every mountaintop I´ve aimed for.
That´s kind of a wierd feeling...
At the beginning of 2010 I got a textmessage from my mom saying that she´s opened a special account for me with 365 happy days for me to spend during this year. Only having 31 of those left I want to mention a handfull of extraordinary people that peptalked me, pushed me and sometimes carried me so that I could get where I am 2day.
There are my 2 sisters of choice. I`ll see you weirdheads this weekend, it´s going to be legen... wait for it... dary!!
My brasilian breath of fresh air. You´re awesome!
And that cherublooking fellow... thanks for all your patience.
Never forgotten, there for me at all times; my family.

Keep it real!

One of those for everybody!

"The glory of friendship is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else belive in him and is willing to trust him."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

I wish for everyone to have an Elaine in their lives.

You lift me up girl!

Back on the f---ing program!

I feel a little bit like an old car who doesn´t really want to start when it´s cold. I´m not even sure I can start and keep on going in this cold. Brrrrr. (Thats mine engine sound.)

After working non-stop teaching and performing for 40 days without a brake - thats no brakes at all, not a single day off - my body and mind was a little bit like an old piece of clothing. Colors worn out, fabric worn out, not really in it´s original shape and form. Having the luxury to be taken care of by someone else than myself I´m up again flying. Aiming higher than ever!

So many things are about to happen!
I have this yogathing you can read about to the right. Come, show your support to the kids and their families, give away a small amount of money and get som yoga!
Friday 19/11 is a AcroME night. Come to WinWin at 3:e Långgatan in Gothenburg to see and meet me and Elaine and tons of other beautiful artists.
...and whats with december the 2ond?! Two different chrismasparties and one restaurantshow want me to perform... heard anything new about cloning? Tell me all about it!

Keep it real.
L.O.V.E.

Got this in my inbox:

Don't be afraid to go where you've never gone and do what you've never done, Milla, because both are necessary to have what you've never had and be who you've never been.
