This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we join Whittney is learning new ways to pleasure your male's member.

Space is limited - Please RSVP here.

Do you love your Male's Member? Here's a way to show him. Bring your male, and his member, to learn new ways to stoke his... ego. The techniques you learn in this hands-on workshop are culled from a variety of teachings, relying heavily on Taoist techniques of male self pleasure (masturbation). Getting to the root of the matter, this class teaches physical techniques and breath work to get his whole body focused on what you are doing to him. 

Participants are encouraged to prearrange who they will be partnered with for the class.  Pairing up at the class is possible but not guaranteed.  Paired participants must have at least one functioning penis between them for the active partner to practice on.  Solo female attendees will be asked to find a partner or withdraw from the class.   Solo male attendees may find a partner at the class or participate in the class practicing on themselves.  (This class is hands on only - no voyeurs). This class is limited to 40 participants.

Please bring towels or mats to lay on for comfort and to help keep the space clean. Lots of massage oil (coconut oil) is used in this class so bring soap and a clean towel if you wish to wash up afterwards.

I heard this mantra at Winter Solstice at Harijiwan's class. It's called Jai Te Gung and is from the Dasam Granth, which was written by Guru Gobind Singh. It is used to cut through blocks to what you want to project or manifest in the world.


The complete mantra and translation from Mantra Pedia at www.spiritvoyage.com is below



Khag khand bihandan khal dal khandan at ran mandan bar bandan
Bhuj dandh akhandan tej parchandan jot amandan bhaan prabhan
Sukh santaa karnang durman darning kilbikh harnang as sarnang
Jai jai jag kaaran srist ubaaran mam pratipaaran jai tegang

Translation:


The sword breaks through and cuts down the demons of the mind and body. This beautiful and powerful weapon adorns the battlefield of life.
It is as an extension of the arm, unbreakable, terribly fast, it's awesome splendor overshadows even the sun.
It protects the peace and happiness of the saints and destroys any powerful negative energy. It has erased the negativity and guilt that I carry. I seek its refuge.
Praise, praise be to the great doer of the world, savior of the creation, my great protector, praise be to the sword!

You can download a short loop from Dharam Singh's  website here.

Want to have a "Golden Aura"? Then go to the Re Man meditation at the foot of the Himalayan Mountains in North India next to the holy Ganga river with Internationally renowned Healer and Yogi Guru Dev Singh Khalsa.

Every spring a large group gathers near Rishikesh to Chant the Re-Man for 7 days until until 11,000 repartitions have been completed.

This year my yoga teacher Darshan Kaur is going. I am interested in going another year.

I attended my first Network For a New Culture event last weekend in Arlington VA - I met lots of old friends and made lots of new ones. Organized by Michael Rios and Sarah Taub the weekend started with a Friday night opening circle and dinner - a chance to get to know people. On Saturday I taught a Getting Real workshop that was fun. Then came the ZEGG Forum - a signature NFNC event for expression, mirroring and growth. I did some deep expression with the help from several people. I also ended up teaching a Shamballa meditation and some Kundalini Yoga. The kind of community connection and open hearted people at NFNC reminds me in some ways of PDF and also Rainbow Gathering. If you are looking for some deep personal transformation in a supportive community then check out their Summer Camp East or West.

Sandboxer Millie Knox has a movie about her gender transition called Soulmates premiering at Avalon Theatre in DC on Sunday 2/21/10 8pm.

As many of you know, our good friend Millie, has lived an incredible life. And just one of the incredible things about her is the many courageous things she has done to reach her own gender integrity. An experienced producer learned about Millie’s journey and chose to make a full length film. It’s called “Soulmates” and it is premiering February 21st at 8:00 pm at the Avalon Theatre NW in DC, just below Chevy Chase Circle. (5612 Connecticut Ave NW Washington, DC 20015). Gail and David Hollies saw a rough cut of the film with Millie some time ago and were was very impressed. Many indie films are almost entertaining and almost engaging. This film really delivers and it’s about someone we already know and love. David and Gail have also decided to do what we can to make the evening special for Millie. Not only is a movie about your life a nerve wracking experience, but this movie deals with some shocking twists and turns that will “out” Millie in all kinds of ways. So she may well need some friends around her.

You can buy tickets and you can buy the DVD at soulmatesmovie.com     The pre-party will start Sunday  Feb 21^st at 4:00 at David and Gail's home in Annandale.

The GLBT bookstore Lambda Rising closed last month after 35 years. It was a Dupont Circle legend and also started the annual Gay Pride event in 1975. With GLBT books available easily at large chains and online the need for a specialist bookstore has declined in recent years. Read more of the story of the rise and setting of Lambda Rising here.

The Kundalini Yoga website gives some good tips and about 20 online lessons in Kundalini yoga.Also some nice charka information

[Kundalini Yoga's] power comes from the Kundalini, an enormous reserve of untapped potential within each of us. It is normally depicted as a coiled or sleeping serpent, located in an area towards the base of the spine.

By gradually and safely awakening this serpent and employing its power, you will benefit greatly from an elevation in consciousness, promotion of physical well-being and an expansion of awareness. You will feel more relaxed and at ease with yourself. Your life will be transformed into one which is happy, healthy & harmonious.
