Didn't know McKelle used to be a McElhatten. Although now that I say it out loud, I think McKelle sounds like a better version of her longer last name. One last thing, I also saw this link where a UPenn-based group (UPenn Counterparts) is doing an "All I want" but not sure if its Joni's. http://www.rarb.org/reviews/381.html Bob.Muller@Fluor.com a icrit : Joseph, Upon closer examination, the cover of "Twisted" is already in our database and collection. Robin must have changed her name from McElhatten to McKelle. If you look at the CD cover it still says 'Robin McElhatten'. This recording appeared on our Volume 15, compiled by Simon.

Feite" Subject: Non-Dual Joni Greetings: This is my first post here, I'd like to share a recent experience. I was just doing some research for a one hour radio special I did with radical Zen priest Kobutsu Malone here in Maine. Kobutsu, in addition to being trained as a traditional Zen priest, was also a line-holder from radical beat generation, 60's generation guru, Chogyam Trungpa's lineage. I remembered an old reference I had read in an interview about Joni's song "Refuge of the Road": "He was the bad boy of Zen. I wrote a song about a visit I made to him called "Refuge of the Road." I consider him one of my great teachers, even though I saw him only three times. Once I had a fifteen-minute audience with him in which we argued. He told me to quit analyzing. I told him I couldn't - I'm an artist, you know. Then he induced into me a temporary state where the concept of "I" was absent, which lasted for three days. [Later], at the very end of Trungpa's life I went to visit him. I wanted to thank him. He was not well. He was green and his eyes had no spirit in them at all, which sort of stunned me, because the previous times I'd seen him he was quite merry and puckish - you know, saying "shit" a lot. I leaned over and looked into his eyes, and I said, "How is it in there? What do you see in there? And this voice came, like, out of a void, and it said, "Nothing." So, I want over and whispered in his ear, "I just came to tell you that when I left you that time, I had three whole days without self consciousness, and I wanted to thank you for the experience." And he looked up at me, and all the light came back into his face and he goes, "Really?" And then he sank back into this black void again." Listening to it anew was a revelation. It was immediately clear to me what she was sharing here. Her last moments with one of the most radical spiritual masters of our time and a rare transmission. If you're trained in dharma, one word is immediately going to grab you, and that word is "refuge". Every Buddhist takes "refuge" in the awakening school when they begin the path, but *ultimate refuge* is refuge in ones own enlightened, ever-present Buddha-nature. Until the first Non-Dual Buddhist masters began coming the the US in the last 30 years, there were few who were capable of directly introducing students to this state of pure knowledge. It's called, in Tibetan "rigpa tsel wang": the transmission of the energy of the Non-Dual State. Most students wait many years to receive this opportunity. But in some cases, the state is very stable, and rather than being a momentary glimpse, it can last days. Everything appears as a manifestation of ones own interdependent arising, our own enlightenment energy. It's a state of Unity Consciousness and is naturally blissful once you grok how everything is, truly, interdependent and connected. Once one is certain about this non-dual state, one could take *refuge* in *anything*. Traditionally it would be the path, the road to enlightenment. But when one resides in the non-dual state, one could take *anything* as the path, even traveling on the open road. After all, "it's all *you*." I shared this with some friends, one who knows Joni from visits to a famous Mexican Brujo. When I contacted him, he was living in the south of France and his comments were to the effect 'I'm glad she had that experience (of the non-dual state), because when I met her in Mexico she clearly had a hard time not over-thinking things.' And the direct experience of our own nature is certainly one way to see beyond our own cage of thinking. Now we always have this precious gift of song to remind us of this most precious of human experiences. What a perfect setting, the spacious open tunings and voicings of Joni's acoustic guitar and song-craft Thanks Joni for reminding me of my own teacher. May all sentient beings be capable of taking refuge in their own nature in this way!

Forgive me, and let me know if this is inappropriate BUT It seems that religion is destroying our planet. The bible says so, the koran says so. America is in danger of becoming a religious state! In my opinion, religious indocrination leads people into a way of thinking and behaving that is not based in reality, or respect for humanity or the earth. This is insanity, and the behaviors of the religious that follow the dictates of violent, narcissistic gods that see humans as evil and in need if saving, send billions of people to unending toture in hell, kill people for small offenses, pour wrath on people who don't do it his way AND their children and children's children, etc and yet insist they are loving and demand worship, leads to insane, prejudiced, us-and-them, discompassionate, and irresponsible living. After all, "god will make it all better someday, all we have to do is believe at wait for him to put all the bad people in hell and then show all us believers his love in eternal bliss". This bullshit is killing the hearts, minds and bodies of the human race. All I can say is: STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alice XLSecurity02 wrote: JR wrote: Well, maybe they should have thought longer and harder back in 1948 about where the diaspora should be put. It seems that they couldn't have picked a stupider place than Palestine. They HAD to have known the hatred and animosity that could ensue, esp. considering the continued occupation of Arab lands. What a mistake THAT was. It just seems to me to be an untenable provocation to put them where they are and them arm them and back them with $300B+ every year just for the sake of a base in the area from which we can maintain a watch over "our" energy resources. How pitifully shortsighted. And this is not bashing of the Jewish people by any means (as I haven't a shred of anti-Semitism), any more than my contempt for the policies of this country is some kind of bashing of the American people (well, that doesn't count neoconservatives). Hi, I am simply appalled by all this talk for several reasons: First you think of Israel as a "stupid place to give the jews". What are they? A peon people that the U.S. or the UN could choose to locate anywhere? Second, you open the door to the idea that the existence of Israel itself is a debatable topic and I find it unacceptable. Israel was not created by the U.S. Zionism originated in Germany at the turn of the 20th century and its goal was to allow the jewish people to establish a state in their religious homeland, from which they were forced into exile 2000 years ago and have been praying to return ever since. There was always a jewish presence in the area, and very few arabs lived there. As jews began to immigrate in the first 3 decades of the century, they bought the land from local arab landowners, and arab labor force came into the area attracted by economic opportunities. So much for the supposed "arab land" and the attachment of "Palestinians" to the land of their ancestors, I mean the ties are 2-3 generations old. Several options were suggested by international organizations where to "put" the jews: Ouganda and some remote Russian territory. Jews had no religious ties with those areas, and even if they did you could bet that some local ougandan or central asian would be angry. After all, where do you "put" a people that nobody wanted for 2000 years? Simply nowhere, it's easier to kill them and not offend any local population who might get displaced. However it's OK when the jews get expelled from an (arab among others) country with only their shirt on. I am not sure about which occupation of arab land you are referring to. Anyway the whole Middle East area was shaped into totally artificial states by the British, the French. If you are referring to the territories occupied since 67. I find the current arab claim preposterous. For instance, the very day of Israel's independence, all surrounding coutries attacked the young state for the purpose of destroying it. Same thing happened in 67. At the time Israel was occupying neither the West Bank nor Jerusalem (Jordan did). Gaza and the Sinai were Egyptian. So what were the arabs trying to "liberate" then? Tel Aviv? Back in the early pre-1948 days, the jews themselves realized that their presence in the middle of arab countries would never be accepted as the old progrom and massacres took place regularly. But "Palestine" was the only land mentioned in the Bible (Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Koran) and so no other territory was acceptable. Finally, let me assure you that the Israelis are totally aware that political alliances never last forever (i.e the USSR supported Israel at first) and they have thought of a way to survive should the U.S. turn around. I would like to add a comment to Mack's reply to Marianne's post about killing of civilians. The Hezbollah has deliberately chosen the clever media strategy of hiding rockets behind human shields. Israel has warned that any area from which a rocket is launched is a legitimate target. That is precisely what the Hezbollah wants to win public opinion support and they succeed. Also note that Israel was hit with 600 rockets before beginning its military campaign! How long would NYC stand still? And where else do you see a country send tracts to warn civilians before a bombing? I am sorry I cannot spend more time to elaborate on all these issues. . Being on holiday I have limited internet access so I may not reply right away.

I think it is the ACTION/BEHAVIOR of a person or group that is not to like. Dear Marianne, Thank you for asking a very relevant question. There are many books written on anti-Semitism so my reply will only scratch the surface. I think the root of anti-Semitism dates to the early Christians. Their efforts to convert Jews were not very successful and therefore they chose the path to show that G-d's election was no longer in favour of the Jews but in favour of the "new Israel" i.e the Christians. Also very early on the Jews were accused of deicide by the Church and it was essential for the development of Christianity that the Jews were a criminally guilty people. We all know it was the Romans (except Mel Gibson), but even if it were the Jews, would that be enough of a reason to make an entire people responsible, centuries later? As you can see, there is no logic here unless you look for hidden motives. Another example that comes to mind is the Jews were forbidden to own land and one of the few professions that was allowed was money lending. When the kings or other creditors couldn't pay, it was easy to accuse the Jews of whatever and kill or expel them so they didn't need to pay them back. The world has always needed as scapegoat. Even today when anything goes wrong somebody gets the blame so people don't need to analyze the true reasons of their failure from the inside. Back in the middle ages, Jews were accused of poisoning wells and spreading the plague. Perhaps the rituals of washing hands and of food hygiene in Judaism kept the diseases lower among the jewish population. That was enough for a "logical" deduction that it was the Jews' fault. Please check history books for more info. Likewise regarding arabs, it is easier for dictators to blame the Great Satan and Israel for all their economic woes. The masses don't look any further, or inside their own ruler's bank accounts, since they have a scapegoat that is readily available. Today, I firmly believe that Israel's main crime is to exist. I have a book written by a French political journalist called: Israel: the Crime to Exist and it is a brilliant demonstration. I already referred to it in the on-list discussions following 9/11. Unfortunately I don't have it with me right now but at home. Later..

Hi Air Sign Mind, Yes, I think this is true, but the original conflict goes further back to Jacob and Esau... a very interesting piece of history recorded in the bible. I remember the story beginning with Abraham, you know "Father Abraham," and his wife Sarah. Sarah was barren and she and Abraham were very elderly yet God promised Abraham he would be the father of many nations. Abraham didn't think this was possible, but they conceived a son they called Isaac which means "God's laughter" or something to that effect because it was almost a joke they got pregnant being so elderly, etc. Isaac married Rebekah and they had twin sons. The oldest by minutes was Esau (which means "hairy"), and the younger was Jacob (which means "one who supplants"). Jacob got Esau's birthright by coercing Esau to give it to him in exchange for food when Esau was starving. However, there was still a blessing from Isaac to be inherited by Esau. Rebekah favored Jacob, but Esau as the oldest son was the one who was in line to receive the blessing from Isaac. So when Isaac became elderly and blind, and was going to give Esau the blessing, Rebekah told Jacob, and together with Jacob they fooled Isaac into thinking he was Esau. They did this by dressing Jacob in Esau's clothes and using hair from animals to cover up his smooth hands and neck so when Isaac smelled and felt Jacob, he thought he was Esau. So Jacob supplanted both the material and the spiritual inheritance that was to be Esau's. Esau is the ancestor of the modern-day Arabs. Jacob was renamed "Israel" by God which describes who his line is today. Later in bible history, Esau forgave Jacob, and Jacob grew to love and respect his brother and they were reconciled. So, hopefully someday there will be a similar reconciliation between the modern day Arabs and Israelites.

(njc) I spoke with my friend and luthier, Mark Richard, the other day about having him build me a guitar and he told me he probably wouldn't be able to start right away as he is in the process of making six mandolins. They are being made out of walnut though I think there might be some maple in them...I can't remember. Anyway, his instruments are the most beautiful I have ever seen and definately give Taylor, Martin, and Larivee a run for their money. If anyone is looking for a really good mandolin let me know and I will let him know. His instruments not only look beautiful but have a gorgeous tone as well and they usually have their own case made from the same wood, designed to give them a perfect fit. I am not sure of how much they will run but I know it would be at least a grand, perhaps 1500. Also, if anyone wants a custom made guitar holler as well but you'll have to get inline behind me...lol I'll be seeing him at the 18th Labor day Boogie and Georgia Reunion, the festival I went to for several years before taking a couple of years off for jonifest.

Well, not really. I'm writing more to share thoughts after revisiting a 'Zagats' guide giving us a clue as to the top 1000 'albums of all time'. I picked this up as a hoot several years back (c. 2003) and just rescued it from my car, where I used to read it in traffic jams. This guide tries really hard to cover the bases from pop to folk to rock to roots to jazz to Broadway to classical to film scores and probably more. I own a bunch of these albums, have heard and would buy many others, and haven't a clue about the remainder. Each album is rated in 4 categories, with an overall rating on a scale of 30. The categories are song writing, musicianship, and production. (The only album to receive a straight 30 is 'Kind of Blue'.) There are 38 albums rated at 29, including 'Blue'. To give you an idea how that works, "Blue gets its 29 rating from category ratings of 29 (songwriting), 27 (musicanship) and 26 (production). Based on most of the other inclusions, I would tend to consider that pretty right on. But it's also clearly not an average of the three categories, but allows room for intangibles and maybe cheekbones. There are 3 Joni's in all.... Blue, Court and Spark (a 28) and Hejira (a 27). Inclusions of note: Beatles: 6, all 29's and 28's Miles Davis: 5 Stones: 4 Bonnie Raitt: 2 Otis Redding: 1 Smokey Robinson :1 Radiohead: 2 Ramones: 2 Velvet Underground: 1 Zappa: 1 Zevon:1 James Brown: 2 J.S. Bach: 4 Chopin: 1 XTC: 1 This is all a hoot, with some value hidden in there, if for example, you were in solitary confinement during the latter half of the 20th Century, or have dropped in from another dimension entirely, and wish to pass for a local.

I can't explain why I just do not trust this guy. . . XO Marianne < Trust your intuition... because (in the words of another genius songwriter)... he's an ugly man - ----- Yes, Joni Sisters. I am so furious about his bolting the party to run in his own "Connecticut for Lieberman" party. HA! Why doesn't he call it the "Lieberman for Lieberman" party, or just join the Republican party where he belongs? They all love him. NPIMH: "We've already said Goodbye Since you gotta go, oh you'd better Go now go now, go now (Go now) Before you see me cry I don't want you to tell me just what you intend to do now...." Cheney said this just proves what a mess the Democratic party is. I wish Joe would just bow out. The country is divided enough, and now the party? I wish he'd find a river he could skate away on. According to yesterday's Hartford Courant, when asked who could dissuade him from running, he replied: "No earthly messenger." UH OH! Sound like someone else we know? Yikes! "Are you there, God? It's me, Patricia Margaret. Will you please tell Joseph not to run? Will you please tell him that the people have spoken, and that we want peace? Would you please tell him that killing people will never achieve peace? That you don't like that? That war is not the answer? Maybe you could remind him of the 5th commandment, the one that says: "Thou shalt not kill." And more from the newspaper: "He denied being selfish by continuing after Democrats rejectect his candidacy. 'I must tell you if I was being selfish and listened to my wife, I would accept the results of yesterday's primary, finish my term and go out and make a lot of money,' Lieberman said." Go for it, Joe! Go out and make a lot of money, and quit this crazy scene! Hmmm, though. It sounds like his wife isn't too thrilled about this. Maybe she can talk some sense into him. This is so upsetting. So many people worked so hard in this primary, and we won. The turnout was record-breaking for a primary. I think it was about 43 percent, unheard of in a summer primary, and nearly 30,000 switched from Ind. to Dem. When is a win not a win? Who does he think he is? He's going to muck up (or use another consonant on that verb....LOL!) the whole thing. I'm not a poltical scientist, but it seems it would be a cakewalk for Ned in November, running against some no-name Republican w/ an alleged gambling problem. I expressed these feelings in an email to our district's campaign coordinator (in which I also thanked her for her tireless efforts in this campaign) and this is what she wrote back: "hey miss patti- thanks for all your help in this - actually it would be great if you could send a letter to the editor of you local paper advocating lieberman drop out - it is not helping the party and we need to be strong to turn the country around - if you could do that it would be a great start to the second race! and again thanks for all your help with this it was great to win but we have a lot of work ahead of us." I never mentioned writing a letter in my email to her, but now at her suggestion, I have one germinating and growing and swirling in my head (bars in her head). This will be hard to do, because I need to get the right tone. I can't be mean about it -- that's not at all the spirit that's inside of me. I think it will be an open letter to Joe Lieberman -- respectful, but at the same time assertive. Maybe something like "to everything there is a season...." and sorry, but I think yours is over. Another challenge will be keeping Joni lyrics out of it! Then again, I hate to go back out onto the battlefield and get bruised up again. Maybe it's paranoia, maybe it's sensitivity, but some of his friends protect him and scrutinize me. I have stories of how mean and *nasty* some people were. I was never pushy at all or nasty..."you be polite!" Then again, who do I think I am, Kitty Wells? That one little letter from me will do diddly squat? Then again, what did Margaret Mead say? "Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." What would Joni do? She'd write a song or paint a picture. But I can't do those things. What would Cindy do? Why, she'd camp out on the land and try and set our souls free! What would John and Yoko do? They'd sing: "War is over, if you want it..." I want it, I want it..... And Bonnie? She says: "Woman be wise. Keep your mouth shut. Don't advertise your man." No, wait. She's talking about a lover there. Now, she has joined the "Troops Home Fast" sponsored by Cindy and Codepink. Bonnie's working. Lots of people are working, but we need more. So I can write a little letter. Maybe I can have the Head of Journalism edit it for me, and Smurf. Smurf's a great writer. Smurf will help me, I know it! You know two heads are better than one. Sorry for the long post. I've got a head full of quandry, and mighty mighty thirst for peace.
