Happy Easter !!!!

Nepali travel diary 2

I’m sitting here, at the hotel, with the laptop in front of me, listening to Tchaikovsky’s symphonies and preparing myself to say a nice good bye to Nepal; I’m leaving in about an hour with destination Thailand; so, in the time I have left I'll try to indulge you with some ingenious words …

last Sunday there was a nice strike which blocked all the traffic in Kathmandu; and so I had the opportunity to walk for about half an hour along the most crowded road in the city and to watch the Nepalese who were walking slowly, every each way; here there is a terrible fight between communists and “imperialists”, the former supported by Chinese and the latter by Indians and others; anyway, it is preferred this type of confrontation instead of the civil war they went through until some years ago

my Nuad lessons had a good evolution; I respond extremely well to Rahul’s style; Friday was a special day for me; my Austrian colleague had the practical test and asked me to be the patient; soon after that, Rahul tells me that I also have to take the test on Thursday, even if I had just done it in the previous week; I complied with his decision and both of us gave a 1.5 hours massage to our colleagues; when the massage was done, Rahul made some comments and observations, starting with my colleague; and after that … he tells me calmly that I’m doing it well and that … I can without any problem teach the base lecture (first level) in Romania … you know how it is with surprises, especially when you’re not expecting them … I was amazed, I said a thank you ... and that’s it… now I can show the others this special style, which I love so much …

ah, not to forget, I managed to eat every day, almost, one of their dishes which has a Chinese origin – Momo; this is a kind of small boiled dumplings (sometimes fried), filled with vegetables or meat, hot served with hot sauce; I admit I like them very much and I recommend it to anybody comes here

well, I prepare myself to leave behind the memory of Nepalese nights with three blankets on me and the mornings with huge efforts for getting off the bed… and to move to one of the last stages of my trainings – a Tai Chi lecture with a Chinese master in Tao Garden …

Nepali Travel Diary

a title a little bit changed, another country …

it’s already two weeks since I’ve been in Kathmandu for Nuad classes, with Rahul, my first instructor; the location is nice and quiet, Rahul is as charming as always and his technique is fascinating through elegance and refinement; from what I’ve learnt by now, Rahul’s part is the most harmonious

he gave a very big importance to the choreographic aspect of the movements and transitions between movements, all these resulting in a splendid ballet in two; the movements are very similar to those from other schools in Thailand, the difference being in the choreography…

the Nepal capital is a mixture, not very successful, of Western civilization and local specific features – the same traffic with no rules (but surprisingly this doesn’t generate almost any accident), only one traffic lights in the entire city, the crossing of the street being a great adventure in the busy streets, all kinds of shops, bagmen selling their goods directly on the pavement, etc.

of course, there are many interesting places, especially the temples, different from what I’ve seen by far; they have an architecture in a Tibetan style; in fact most of the monks are Tibetans, refugees from their country

here I did some things, it was a first for me, namely I took part in two volunteer actions organized by Rahul:

in one of them beds, clothes and food were given to some Nepalese with no shelter; what can I say, these people are very impressing, when you see their joy you start thinking that maybe sometimes , you have everything and still not happy when keeping on demanding…;

the other one was instructive and tiresome and nice and interesting and etc; we went by car for about six hours in a village taking a “real” road; there clothes, school supplies, etc were distributed to the children in some schools in the village and also to the poor old people; we were welcome like in the movies, with applause and flower garlands, we played with the children, I made soap balloons to the great joy of the little Nepalese…; I saw the big mountains in the distance, covered by snow… and then another six hours back to the capital.

Beliefs ....

"Everything in the universe is light, beauty and love"

 "Love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous, love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish; it does not take offense, and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people’s sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end"

and

in my case, I felt the deep truth of the above words through the practice of the Thai Massage ( Nuad Phaen Bo Rarn), sacred art that ....

Malaysia in short

it sounds pretty interesting, isn’t it? this is only 2 hours distance from Chiang Mai (airplane), so you’re there very quickly

the thing is that Thailand visa system is a little bit tricky and I had to leave the country and then come back in order to get another visa; among Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and the others, Malaysia was the closest and most accessible, as  Romanians don’t need visas for this country.

 First of all, they have lots of palm trees everywhere, similar to our Christmas trees forests; secondly their capital Kuala Lumpur it’s like an Asian copy of the New York city. All over the center part, called the golden triangle, you can see huge tours, and among them, the two twin tours, as far as I know the tallest in the world (I’m not very sure) .

 these twin tours are really impressing, it’s such a shame I lacked the curiosity of climbing up there…, I was very proud to see live the place where Sean Connery played in Entrapment, a movie I liked

 all in all I was not too culturally impressed; varied people, mostly Muslims, their shopping centers are crowded and everybody buys a lot…; women respecting the Muslim tradition, some of them covered entirely in black, except for the eyes, others in jeans and only with the head covered; men are not submitted to tradition, they wear either t-shirts or shirts, without any restriction; “poor” them!

anyway some things may have diminished in their moral code as well, because I saw enough of them holding hands; it was very interesting to see a woman dressed completely in black and a guy in casual clothes walking hand in hand …

 well, I’ll stop here with my short Malaysian trip, I doubt I’ll repeat it soon … I’ll come back soon with some more Thai …

Happy county girl

She is so happy and so proud about her beauty. Being young is a real gift …. (painting of Nicolae Grigorescu, Romanian artist)

welcome to the dreams

I just wanted to say a warm welcome to our dreams. They are so close to become reality, just a few steps distance and …. miracle ….

Eveniment major :-)

Asadar, dupa zile si zile si zile de testari am reusit sa pun comunitatea virtuala pe picioare.

Comunitatea este deplin functionala, dar vor mai aparea, probabil, mici probleme inerente oricarui inceput.

Dati un click pe butonul "Community" sau pe linkul acesta: Friendship Energy

Cei mai experimentati va puteti deja inscrie. Simbata, la antrenament, voi veni cu detalii ....

In concluzie, la ora actuala comunitatea noastra este cam ca in poza de mai jos:

adica isteata si mititica. Dar cu ajutorul "mamicilor" virtuale va deveni, zic eu, mare si voinica!!!

definitie Nuad

o splendida defintie a Nuadului; sper sa va placa:

Nuad Bo Rarn is "pure music and energy"

practica periodica + alte terapii

este in regula, vom incerca sa organizam un gen de intilniri periodice pentru cei ce au absolvit unul sau ambele nivele, de preferinta la locatia unde se tine cursul; intr-adevar ar fi un binevenit schimb de informatii, prilej de antrenament etc.

in privinta altor terapii, am avut de la inceput ideea aceasta; usurel, usurel, cu ajutorul vostru o vom pune in practica!
