It has to come like a snake.

The title is a description of the late Harish Johari, an Indian teacher whose summer seminars in Belgium I have attended for years.
I remember one of those Belgian students of him telling me that the fact that Johari started out with teaching about food and even about emptying the bowels, was for him reason enough to trust him.
For me it was especially the fact, that the man allowed me to just be there, me not following any of his advises. (Rising before the sun was one of them). For me it was a total joy to eat the by him prepared food. And all this for my mind too complex systems (numerology, astrology, etc, etc.) went in the proverbial ear and left thru the other one.
There is still a huge website out there, related to his books and teachings:

I was reminded of all this while writing the following:
Since less than a week the bowels are kind of getting a grip again on how to handle the new food situation. Slowly, slowly the endproduct of the food is getting something like a solid texture. The since arrival in India produced ‘oersoep’, with just enough substantiality to not have to run for the bathroom, but at the same time not allowing much space for practical postponement of letting go of it, slowly slowly is kind of doing what creation does: It is One to begin with, but by some badly understood miracle the One Shows up as many. And thru something called ignorance the different Turds seem to forget who they are and think they are shit.

So far my improvised introduction on the classic advaita vedanta.
More on that later.
