Kathmandu Nepal 1.dogs

Today my visa expired, and I got an extension...in the flow here....begining to know how to navigate the arteries of shop lined streets...I feellike when i was 12 and would wander around Cannal street...window gazing...feeling like it was possible to create anything...and here are the places that sell such specific raw materials.... of course now its changed, but these streets of Kathmandu inspire me (on comming trafic to keep your awareness on the present, and shrines tucked down every alley way for inspiration)... I have some little projects starting to simmer....no rush to return to India, plus I found my dance floor past-life.... going to local clubs and cutting it up to the most amazing (or at least novel and fresh crisp feeling experience generating) scene.... The english translation of the name of the genre of music is "Teasing". There are girls on one stage with mics, and boys on the other, and its like an improve jam free style where one sex makes fun of the other.... where hip hop is fast, this syle is sing song slower, but each sex makes word plays on the same word (as its been explained to me screamed in in broken english during a performance)...every song is atleast 30 minutes long, with harmonium, flute, tablas and drum machine as rhythm providers.... there are also girls who just come out and do these dances behind the singers, which is joyful (in a chinese princess breakin' in the 1300's sorta way...).... Nepali people are so open and friendly to begin with, and when they see me at the club they get so psyched, and drag me up to dance if I'm sitting, and hug me, and can't stop smiling....and its all smiles.... been practicing some chi gong moves in the morning that Kori showed me, and reading Chogyam Trungpa during meals, so in one way I'm putting awareness into moving energy with my body, aswell as understanding buddhism and non-duality in a new way, which is liberating... feeling very open... and of the moment....
