I chose to call this offering Hollow Reed Sanctuary because all of these threads and practices center around the vibratory column that connects us from Earth to Sky through the central channel of the body. When we play the shakuhachi, recite mantra, circulate the internal energy of the body, direct the imagination joined with the breath, or even simply sit in open awareness with an upright spine, we can activate and enliven the prana, or chi, or magic energy within our body/mind. This brings well being, energy and direct experience of awareness, and can cultivate the wisdom of direct experience of emptiness. For this reason I want to share what I have learned, so that you may self initiate into your innate healthy sense of well being, enlightenment, and union.
I have been fortunate to have received many years of training and experience in Western and Eastern traditions including meditation, mantra, magic, internal arts, shakuhachi and yoga. In gratitude of the treasures I have received, I offer my experience to be helpful to others.
If you landed here it is likely we have already met and already have a connection, use this site to get added to my contact list so can stay in touch. Soon I will be introducing some practice sessions and class opportunities.
Since I am now retired I am also setting up a Patreon where you can make a monthly donation. This doesn’t create any special classes or features, think of it as a tip jar.

The body has no essence, just like a hollow bamboo reed.
Mind, like open space, transcends the realm of thought.
Release your mind within this state, neither confining nor allowing it to roam. – Tilopa
