The tarnish is on the old ways. The new ways are starting, put your best prompt forward and see the :generative wisdom coming forth.
Just finished “Chit Chat AI Handbook.” Written and prompted to put some perspective on the next wave to hit the digital world. Look it up on Amazon, versions both paperback and kindle are ready..
Its been over a year since my last post. No guilt here, just busy trying to put out fires and make since of the changes we are presented with our modern lives,
My youngest daughter trying to follow in my footsteps is in North Japanese Alps for some hiking and renewing our connection with our mountain friends in the natural splendor along the Azusa River.
It feels there. Yeah, I know. Easy to get distracted by tastes.
i didnt post for over two years. Covid life. and so far didn’t catch it, we are comming back.
My latest book, Annapurna Blues, is being published in Kathmandu by Vajra Press of Thamel. I’m pleased that my book is included in their selection of dharma titles.
The Postal service in Nepal is closed from Covid and advance copies are being sent via DHL direct from Kathmandu to Ft. Bragg, California. This book has been slow in coming and delayed due to the pandemic.
May the Annapurna Blues serve as an escape from the restrictions of this time, may some of the ancient wisdom that is so clumsily shared by me and hidden in the pages be a balm to the reader’s being.
Take a trip closer to the earth and closer to the people of the lost valleys of the Himalaya of Nepal. In 1978 the modern world had yet to touch the highlands. Everest had been climbed in 1952 but Nepal was slow to open and the old ways still held sway. The modern era and ancient knowledge rubbed shoulders.
Nepal as part of my life
The single strongest influence in my life was the time of my life when I worked as a trekking guide in Nepal.
I am too old for serious trekking now memories will have to suffice. The treks, the clients,, the times after the treks, working behind the scenes , the dinners, the powerful landscape and ubiquitous religions of Hinduism and Buddhism combined for a powerful effect.
I’m excited to imagine holding a finished copy in my hands, it has been a long time coming, twenty years collecting stories and another twenty writing and re-writing the book. For now the only way to get a copy is to order one directly from me at [email protected]
The brilliance of Mervin
Just another blog
How many blogs are written and abandoned? Almost all of them.
I hope this one makes it.
We look for the date and don’t bother to read if was in the past (for the most part). We want something from our Pandemic and political world that’s fresh and new, not yesterday’s headlines.
Check the date!
