First, before my trip there was so much interest expressed from friends and acquaintances about the spiritual aspect of the journey. There seems to be a general thirst toward Eastern inward reflection.
Secondly, it became apparent half way through my journey that things were falling into place with incredible synchronicity. The deck seemed stacked in my favor. That continued until I returned home. I felt blessed and privileged by this and from that came a sense of responsibility to share what I had experienced and learned. (less)

Mark Kacik's Blog: Caves, Huts, and Monasteries

Mind, Body, Soul Expo

This past weekend I offered "Caves, Huts, and Monasteries" at the Cleveland Mind, Body, Soul expo. There was a wonderful and diverse crowd there and I must say I learned a lot from my neighboring spiritual seekers.
I also gave a short talk on 'Spirituality in Asia' with a display of photos. I really enjoyed talking to the engaged audience.
