Our 33rd Year with New Art Offerings, and Our Upcoming Tour
Greetings World Peace Diet friends, and apologies this is going out one day late…
Madeleine and I appreciate your efforts on behalf of compassion for animals and for harmony, health, and freedom on this beautiful Earth.
For us, this day, November 11, is a remarkable and memorable day that we celebrate every year, because it was on 11/11/92, 33 years ago today, that Madeleine and I came together in San Francisco, and we have been together ever since, united in our mission to share as best we can the inspiring message of compassion for all living beings. I had met Madeleine about 18 months earlier when I traveled through her native Switzerland as part of a concert tour and she had bought one of my cassette tapes of original piano music, Lost Islands, and we had corresponded about how she, as an artist, could perhaps create the cover art for my new first-ever CD album.
It has been the most absolutely fabulous 33 years any human could ask for as I have been privileged to live together with and be continually inspired by Madeleine’s loving example of dedication to spiritual practice, and to appreciating the beauty that is all around us in nature, and in animals and each other. Our goal together is to do our best to embody truth and kindness in our hearts and help ignite these in our human world, based on the understanding that one Life lives through us all.
In this spirit of celebrating today our 33 years together, we like to let you know that Madeleine’s beautiful original paintings of animals and nature are available not only as museum-quality prints, but now also in a vast array of practical and uplifting applications for your home, wardrobe, office, or as gifts.
Working with the San Francisco-based online art platform RedBubble, we have just now facilitated Madeleine’s art being available directly to you as, for example:
- T-shirts and Sweatshirts
- Mouse Pads & Phone Cases
- Blankets and Pillows
- Hats, Dresses, and Tops
- Stickers & Coasters
- Laptop Cases and Jigsaw Puzzles
- Art Prints and Cards
- Tapestries and Duvet Covers
- Clocks, Mugs, and Aprons
- Bath Mats and Shower Curtains
- Tote Bags & Shopping Bags
And lots more…
It’s very easy to view the possibilities and to order directly if you feel so inclined, as you will see. Please check out the options; we think you will be glad that you did, and let us know what you think, and if you have any questions or further suggestions – thanks!
In just ten days, November 21, we will be departing our beloved Karuna Food Forest sanctuary and home temple here in northern California and heading out in our micro-camper van on our Health and Harmony For All Tour, named after the subtitle of our most recent book, The World Peace Way.
On the first leg of our tour, heading south and east, we’ll be presenting an evening talk at the Vegetarian House restaurant in San Jose, and more events in Arroyo Grande in southern California, and speaking for the vegan Thanks-Living dinner in Phoenix, and heading on to subsequent events that are arranged in New Mexico, Texas, Georgia, and then into Florida for more presentations over the next several months, returning west in March. All details are available on our ever-updated schedule of Upcoming Events, and we look forward to seeing you or perhaps folks you know in these areas along the way.
Thanks for caring, and heartfelt wishes from us both for a terrific Thanks-Living in a couple of weeks.
May you thrive in every way, and may we continue to work together to reveal the many ways we can bring healing to ourselves, animals, and our world.
PS – We have scholarships available for our online World Peace Diet course.
