[Jitendra Hydonus]

I consider myself blessed to live in environments all my adult life that were conducive to meditation. And it appears that I am today as well. It seems to me that just the practice of meditation daily has led me to live near large parks, forests, lakes, the ocean as well as near or in temples, churches, and monasteries.

Although i see billionaires in control of our country today, I find that I feel much more blessed then they are, because I have the good fortune of great gurus in my life who have shown me the importance of being around places where I could meditate for hours with others and places where nature was so wonderful that it helped me calm my body and mind so that I had meaningful meditations and at times exhilarating moments. And even more important I have had the opportunity to be around Masters and saintly people all my life.
