I cloistered myself in an American yoga ashram (monastery), where I began the formal training of my spiritual learning. After having learned simple but cosmic truths that I could not have learned in the society at large, I left the ashram to learn more simple but cosmic truths that I could not have learned in the ashram. I was fortunate to get a job as a resident host in a beautiful YMCA camp at the very lake where the lightning had struck my tent seven years earlier. I followed my path as a music teacher, trumpet player, and composer, and while conducting a symphonic work of mine, met my future wife, who was a clarinetist; we married eleven months later. I was hired to teach music and yoga at a school for emotionally disturbed children a few miles from the YMCA camp, and began to teach evening yoga and meditation classes there as well.  My adult yoga students and I then established The American Yoga Conservatory in order to teach yoga on a deeper level without the external Indian cultural trappings. In December of 1984, my wife and I learned that we were with child, the Conservatory lost its lease, and I had my first channeled reading by the entity Hemetro, who later would reveal himself as one of my three principal guides. I was made aware of mistakes in the structure of my teaching vehicle (the Conservatory), and immediately began the process of releasing that from my life. I traveled to the Soviet Union in May of 1985 with 80 other yogis, artists, teachers, actors, authors, and clergy, in order to establish grassroots contact with Russian counterparts. Upon returning home, I secured a job as a music teacher in the New York City suburb of Mahwah, New Jersey.   Our first child was born that August, and a new chapter of my life - that of a father - began in earnest, all the while, attempting to serve humanity through music and my love of children. It has not been easy. Sometimes humanity does not wish to be served. ** WE ARE ALSO ON AUDIO AUDIO “Conversations with Calvin; WE the SpecIEs” ANCHOR https://lnkd.in/g4jcUPq SPOTIFY https://lnkd.in/ghuMFeC APPLE PODCASTS BREAKER https://lnkd.in/g62StzJ GOOGLE PODCASTS https://lnkd.in/gpd3XfM POCKET CASTS https://pca.st/bmjmzait RADIO PUBLIC https://lnkd.in/gxueFZw edits by Claudine Smith- Email: [email protected]
