First I needed Yogo
:   Brooklyn, 1962 – Filipino Sensei Visitacion’s harsh and unrealistic training injuries forced me to quit martial arts.  At Princeton I was literally handicapped by  candidiosis.  At Woodstock Nation, 1969, I was enervated, emotionally freaked-out, in constant pain, trapped in I AM consciousness, no proprioception – healing was not imaginable.  Yoga provided static postures, dozing (not flowing meditation) and self-injuries.  I invented Yogo by blending soothing asanas with invigorating kungfu, introspective kinesthesia and physical therapies in a base of Ahimsa (harmlessness) and vegetarian food.  Yet I yearned to meditate-in-motion.

 

Pre-vGong Fortunately my reclusive Princeton buddy, Matt Myers, introduced me to ‘Lift Chi Up – Pour Chi Down’ Master Luke Chan’s 20 minute audiotape – 7 years and 3,000 repetitions later my frozen hip, disconnected feet and twisted spine commenced healing.  For once I could maintain the basic 45 degree tai chi stance.  I studied various yoga forms, received hundreds of massages and chiropractice adjustments.  In 2005-2006 I suffered 2 car wrecks, a slip and fall and a spinal fracture while landscaping.   Dr.  Marvin’s Rx was perhaps the first scrip recognized by Medical Insurance.  In Master Moy’s Taoist Tai Chi Health Recovery, I was mentored by Bill ‘Randy’ Slichter up to Beginner Instructor.  I left The Society when I was called to balance-heal-meditate on my own.

Lao Tzu I hear you
by VegPoet J. VeganMan Tucker

Luxuriate in mortality
Ignore common morality
Procreate ethics
Revel in morals.

Float your boat on civility
Be all-caring while carefree
Surprise those awaiting your demise
Close your outer eyes.

No paddling between leap years
Straddle the light and dark fears
Suffer yourself to laugh loudly
Turn inward for warmth.

Avoid not the void
Lest you void its surprises
The devil’s in the re-tales
Hell exists in Mind’s I.

Hunger nourishes
Cravings motivate
Crying liberates
Sighing soothes.

Chorus:
Destiny played out yesterday
Today’s your time to shine & dine
Begging bowl is empty when pockets are full
Empty begging bowl beats full pockets.

Mortality beats fatality
Peace is up to you
Sacrilege amusing
Crazy a point of view.

Chaos is wholesale
Others are off set
You settle in it
Being safe as You.

Poet knows silence
Plants rhyme in darkness
Waters with whispers
Sprinkles shiny rays.

Pay a premium for sanity
You’re not special just unique
Strangeness is boundless
When friends speak.

Assimilate symbols
Digest memories
Distill prose
And so it goes…

Repeat Chorus
END

150 minute Senior Practice  for three years I led a group of elderly Spanish-speakers at The Claude and Mildred Pepper Senior Activities Center in Sweetwater, FL, with gentle but demanding movements, including walking-circle meditation.  Well-received by the Mayor and officials and I enjoyed impacting health-challenged individuals in their 70’s to 90’s, including the Mayor’s grandmother.
