A detailed look at Victorian Gingerbread Fretwork. I had my first industrial fretsaw near 25 years ago and took an instant liking to the Victorian patterns and designs. I've done a variety of woodworking including polishing, restoring and timber cutting. I make all sorts of things in wood, I'd call it art woodwork. Part of my interest is how can people, if they want to, elevate their woodwork to a level that one would call art. Maybe it's aresponse or a reaction to some exrtent because I don't like the term "hobby". I'm sure many prefer their woodwork to their job and they are often very precise carpenters. There are lots of patterns in here that I've made and sold over the years. Some of the most fun I have is when an artist wants me to make their designs for them. These joint ventures tend to produce the best artwork and there's several examples of this in the book.
In this rather dull period tai chi wise we'd practice sword forms, Choi Lee Fut (kung fu form), 2 man forms, push hands, technique sparring, touch sparring, wrestling and massage. The other guys and girls would sometimes also kit up in protective gear and batter each other in full contact sessions. After about four years tai chi is more interesting in itself at a stage called Man or awareness.
It's easy enough to write about this now but one does become aware of something tangible. From about 1992 I took an interest in both the local spiritualist church and a meditation called Knowledge taught by Prem Rawat (also known as Maharaji). As it turns out our local mediums had strong links with the Silver Birch book and post war mediumship in the UK.
For four years I was taught rather personally by Maharaji and his instructors. I'd stand up in front of thousands of people or in small rooms and ask questions. First time I saw him in Brighton I stood up and said give me Knowledge. He was nice to me even then now I think about it and just said don't stick it in a box. After lots of travelling around and many questions later I received the techniques of Knowledge at a plush Hotel in Gatwick Airport, conveniently situated for Maharaji to take off to some other part of the world.
No longer an aspirant for Knowledge but a Premie (trad. translates as divine lover) I turned my attention to studying with the Tibetan Lamas. Many are the heads of lineage such as H H Sakya Trizin, Dzogchen Rinpoche and Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche. More extensively with Tenzin Wanyal, and his teacher
I am particularly grateful to Khensur Lobsang Tenzin Rinpoche, Lama Doboon Tulka, His Eminance Luding Khen Rinpoche, Khenpo Tsulrim Rinpoche, His Eminance Rizong Rinpoche, Lama Khemsar, Lama Lekshey and Namkai Norbu and Ringu Tulka.
