Welcome to my world at this point in time- managing a Sri Chinmoy enterprise, running a marathon a month and generally endeavouring to follow a path navigated with the aid of more heart than mind.

Kate Smiling This is me in my most typical habitat, The Rainbow-Silence-Heart vegetarian eatery, Melbourne Australia.

Mine is a story of what in Australia has been coined 'a sea-change'. For me it has been a slow transition, moving from corporate life to enterprise life- from suit to sari, and I love it.

Working in an enterprise is definitely not without its challenges but when all involved are dealing with issues that arise in and around them through the same philosophical prism, it is very different. The only reason we are here is to serve the public and our own spiritual lives.

The next most frequented habitat is my house, something of a sanctuary after the fully-peopled time at The Rainbow-Silence-Heart. It is made especially so by the presence  of Sri Chinmoy's Jharna-Kala and works by some of his artistically inspired students.

The most recent is the Tree of Life (see below), painted as a mural on a 3 x 5mtr wall by Pranavanta. Tree of Life
