About Me

Despite being a verb, Wiki 's still-frame of me as Ramón Sender Barayón is more or less current.
From the back cover of my collected short essays/articles/stories:
“The purpose/job/whatever-it-is that I’m here to demonstrate is that you can do it all in one lifetime – survive war, bombs, mother’s murder, loss of family, abandonment, change of cultures, a weird but privileged childhood, go Bohemian, go Beat, go Zen, go radical Christian cult, screw up as a young adult, experience hand-to-mouth poverty, flounder around ruining relationships, go animist, go hippy, go shaman, go crazy, and still emerge from it all like a pooch staggering out of a tsunami, shaking off all accrued karmic crud and find a joy-filled life with a wonderful wife and three great sons, all of whom allow me the freedom to pursue solar consciousness, not on any particularly defined path but by dancing my own dance across the sunlit meadows of Mt. Meru. Amazing!”

I'm passionate about

Raising the bliss tolerance level globally with easy-to-do (self-arising) body-focused events
that raise the bliss tolerance levels..

An idea worth spreading

"That which is not present in deep dreamless sleep is not real."
Ramana Maharshi
"The resonant, sounding breath is the self-arising (relaxed) manifestation of deep, dreamless sleep. Relax into the resonant breath while awake and -- guess what happens?
Your cat will think that you’ve mastered feline felicity at last!"
RS
