Obaitori

We had a 'mixed bag' this weekend. With over fifty percent of people unwell in the house I think we all did the best we could.

When it came time to paint this lovely old cane children's rocker, I decided it definitely had to be sunshine yellow. It reminded me of a story from Amsterdam in the 1960's. There used to be these white bicycles around the city. They were 'free' for people to use whenever & wherever they wanted to ride. They would ride & leave them along side the path when they were finished. Bicycles of peace.

The lovely Olivia, cousin extraordinaire, came up for a visit. Oli loves chocolate, baking & the children. The children love baking, chocolate & Oli.

It wasn't all smiles here this long Anzac weekend but I'm glad I captured these ones.

Welcome

Hello, my name is Katie Jane Hinshelwood. Here you will find a little bit of my story; our family’s journey on the spiritual path. I have a deep yearning of understanding & nurturing the spiritual development of the family.I facilitate a spiritual mother's group called Obaitori. It is an all embracing collective of women who support each other in 'sharing the struggle' belonging together and not living in 'isolated perfection'.

I hope to share a ray of yogic light on spiritual mothering & caretaking of children. I am also a learner and earnestly seek your opinion and want to ask what works for you?

I live with my two children, partner Dazla & our cat, Yogi.

I am an aspirant, searching deep within, to uncover true peace, Love & joy. I'm also known as Yogachakra, my spiritual name, given by my blessed sri guru Swami Niranjan Saraswati.

I’m really happy you are here. Please feel free to wander around & have a look.

You are very welcome.

Inspiration

Be soft in your practice. Think of the method as a fine silvery stream, not a raging waterfall. Follow the stream, have faith in its course. It will go its own way, meandering here, trickling there. It will find the grooves, the cracks, the crevices. Just follow it. Never let it out of your sight. It will take you. ~ Sheng-yen ~
Simplify your life, purify your heart. Slay egoism & pride, cultivate cosmic LOVE, practise SELF DISCIPLINE. Serve ALL. LOVE ALL. Hear, reflect, meditate. Enquire & know YOURSELF. Live the Eternal. There is only one language the language of the heart. There is only one law, the law of cause & effect. There is only one religion the religion of LOVE. ~ Swami Sivananda Saraswati ~
