“Do not travel far to other dusty lands, forsaking your own sitting place;
if you cannot find the truth where you are now, you will never find it.”
- Dogen

Here's some of my favorite places to spend a bit of free time.  I try to keep my list short, and include comments for each link so you know what each is about, under the assumption that an endless list of anonymous links isn’t too useful to you.  

Inspirational Personal Sites:

Nataraj’s Stage

Nataraj’s Stage is an “exercise in self-expression”.  This is a collection of works by a person I’m honored to call friend.  I directly credit him with inspiring my passion for the Doumbek, and I’ve used his “Doumbek for Drummies” workbook for years as my primary reference material.

Darkstar - In the Mist

The beautiful personal home of Darkstar, Hostess extra ordinaire of the Wicca, Witchcraft, & Paganism Forum with prose, poetry, photos, and lots of food for the soul.

Red Cedars - A Journey

An absolutely wonderful site, documenting a personal journey of spiritual exploration with original prose and photography.

Mama Rose’s Kitchen

Rose hasn’t updated her site since 1998, and her pages have gone 404, but thanks to WebArchive.org, her pages have not been lost, and they still contains lots of wonderful information organized in a very tidy manner. Bravo, WebArchive.org! (If anyone finds out where Rose and her site have gone, please write and let me know! I would love to see the updates!)

Whitehorse Dreams

This site went 404 between April and August 2005. But all is not lost. Click the link and be taken Wayback to April 4, 2005 and this beautiful, informative site, which says:  “The purpose of this website is to offer you information and resources to help you understand the wonderful landscape of your dreams.”
