Dear Beloved Friends Far and Wide: As fate would have it, my path to follow what Spirit and Life has had to teach me in ...

Dear Beloved Friends Far and Wide:

As fate would have it, my path to follow what Spirit and Life has had to teach me in these last two years has been to leave my Marin community after 53 years after the death of my amazing Jewish Momma Pearl, so I could learn what it feels like to feel at HOME inside myself wherever Life takes me.

That has required me to let go of being physically with all my California friends, my Marin community, my familiar world… for what is becoming years of quiet inner living, not just months, including missing out on being with you all as our country and the entire world goes through a metamorphosis, a death/birth, a time of deep reckoning of our country’s karma with Native American genocide, forced African slavery, and empire building of fast food capitalism proliferating around the planet…amidst all the amazing culture, music, and Greater Good beauty we all participate in co-creating endlessly in our efforts to Rise as beings of Light and Love amidst the obsessions of greed, war and power.

As someone who knows in every marrow of my being that we humans are made to best metabolize grief in the context of a tribe or community, and I who deeply loves my friends and community with my whole heart, it’s not been easy to leave everything and everyone I am close to!

With my father Irving and my sister Alexis and my Mother Pearl all no longer living in this realm- and my older brother Steve now struggling with a new serious cancer diagnosis in Tucson with so little support to navigate those turbulent waters- , I’m being obviously guided to trust that all of our parted beloveds might have left us in this 3D realm- ..but, truly THEY’RE STILL HERE…they’re really still here.

So…while I’m still living in a kind of limbo in my rebound flat thanks to my amazing friends and colleagues, Hope Fitzgerald and Jim Sexton who are among the few whom I know here, after being spit out from Hurricane Helene in Asheville last late September to Pioneer Valley MA, …and then, after having my 15 year beautiful Wisdom of the World website completely destroyed three months ago by cyber hackers, I’m learning how to experience what it really means that “Life Happens FOR me not TO ME”…while learning how to truly experience a sense of belonging and HOME in my body, my heart, my soul, and my spirit….in a location with such a wildly different culture… where I know so few people- at a time when my inner life has been given the gift of having to be so much richer …so I can learn the fundamental truth… that I AM HERE. HE NAY NI, as it is said in Hebrew. Here I am-

AND yes, I miss YOU, my friends, my community, my many families around the world of such deep intimacy and resonance- SO MUCH!- but we are all here, always interconnected, always ONE, as my Holomovement community so eloquently shares.

As my beloved late awakened soul-friend Neal Rogin called it- my “prisonality” -so badly wants to see you all “in the flesh”, but it’s just not going to be possible, sadly. Loving and accepting what is: easier said than done!

So I must remember WE ARE HERE, TOGETHER,always and in all ways.

I guess that’s what Source wants me to remember, know and feel.

So…

For any of you who are going to Burning Man, (I’m crossing off that off my Bucket List this year (and I’m alternately terrified and exhilarated at the thought of doing this crazy thing at my age!)), please reach out to me if you’re attending.

Or reach out to me at any time, if your inner voice guides you to want to connect so we can remind one another that we are always a part of one another .

Know that I am always with you.

Wherever and whenever we shared loving smiles and laughter and resonance at any point of our lives, we will always be here, in this realm,, together, ONE.

And since I so rarely share like this on FB, it would be remiss of me if I didn’t share what is occupying my heart mind body and soul most of all is this Oneness. A project to affirm our unity.

So in the 3D world…I invite you to learn about and participate in this project that came to me as a download for me to do MY part during these crazy-ass consequential times that we have all prepared for- -

WE RISE AS ONE!
A CELEBRATION OF CONNECTION, COMPASSION AND HOPE.

SOUL FIRE TOMORROW NIGHT!
Unity in Marin 7:30 PM
ATTENTION: No One Turned Away for Lack of Funds!
It was brought to my attention by a beloved community member that the price of the upcoming musical gathering tomorrow night was priced too high for some people. Therefore, I wish to share that if really want to be there, please just come and pay what you can afford. Please do not be embarrassed to ask for a discount. Pay what you can. It's more important to let anyone who wishes to share this experience be able to attend.
But it bears mentioning that these events have consistently been priced at @ $20-25 for more than 30 years! Everything else has inflated, but never the cost of a musical evening!
Since streaming services have essentially destroyed the income for music creators by reducing the itunes per track fee from .30 cents to .003 cents per stream, there simply needs to be more consciousness concerning how much we all value those of us who create music for a living - and how untenable it is for music creators and performers to be adequately remunerated.
That being said, I'm rarely here in the area these days, and a 'unifying meeting of the community' is more important than money. But please, all of you, think about what you value - and the value of a $20-25 ticket in today's inflated times comes out to be worth much closer to about $10 dollars a ticket. Is that an expression of how much these events mean to you?
Please, do come, no matter what you can pay. We all want us to be together for this event!
Also, keep in mind, I've gotten a commitment from some surprising cameo guests- Swami Beyondananda will open the night; Kim Rosen will offer some poems insterspersed around our chants; Mika Scott will be adding his percussion; And Miranda Macpherson and I will be joined by the stellar musician/producer Ben Leinbach. How's that for providing value to the evening? Please do come...we are excited to see you! Love, Gary.
Ps Go to the UnityinMarin website to find out the streaming link that they should provide on the event page for this event! It hasn't been provided yet, but apparently will be posted soon. https://unityinmarin.churchcenter.com/regi.../events/2890478
