Living Wisely, Living Well

If you must be in crowds, imagine yourself haloed by an aura of light. Consciously emanate vibrations of love and joy all around you. One evening, years ago, I was obliged to enter the nightclub district of San Francisco. As I went, I silently chanted, “Sri Ram, jai Ram, jai jai Ram.” I was aware of tentacles of negativity reaching out to grab me, but they slipped by without even touching me.
