"Om Mani Padme Hum" (#9)

This week I am trying to cultivate the Buddhist in me. After the traumatic week I had with technology last week, I knew that I had to get a grip on things and refocus. To assist me in my “spiritual” quest, I utilized a meditation mediagraphy compiled by one of our classmates, Travis Davis. It is appropriately titled, The Silent Mind: http://thesilentmind.weebly.com/ It’s a great source that provides CD Audio, Podcasts, DVD, Online Video, and Software resources about meditation. One of my favorite sources is a guided Reiki meditation based on Chakra colors, and hosted on YouTube:

If your wiki project has you feeling stressed or "under the gun," then I would highly recommend you give this one a try.

Oh, and if you hear “Om Mani Padme Hum” coming over the VICland microphone tonight, you are not going crazy, it’s just me trying to get some R&R.

Michael, your postings really make me laugh. I could really relate to your Over the Edge one. After many years of using a PDA I am back to a paper calendar. I had an iPaq with Outlook and could never get the syncing right. I would cross time zones each week and it would reset my appointment times. Maddening. Meditation sounds like another good way to fight back.
