“I believe in humanity, and I believe that we don't need countries, we don't need borders...We didn't do that after prison. We did that in the darkest of moments. We did that when it mattered most.”
~ Former Guantánamo detainee, Mohamedou Ould Salahi
Dear Friends,
India’s grand epic Mahabharata says that in the first age of man, the bull of dharma will stand on four legs. Each represents and is described in the Srimad Bhagavatam as a pillar of virtue: austerity, cleanliness, mercy, and truth. In the Hindu calendar’s Kali Yuga, the last age of man, the bull will be left standing on one leg representing truth.
In the uncertainty and strangeness of these times, the light that can guide our way is the beacon of truth. We can sense it if we attune ourselves to its vibration and glow. Truth has its own frequency and warmth. We know it when we experience it, whether it’s in the words, actions, or presence of another — or simply within ourselves. Its resonance is never forgotten. It is who we are.
We encourage you on the cusp of this new season to look for it within your days, in the people you meet, and in your own thoughts and being. It has an illuminating power that can guide the way forward on your unique and beautiful version of life’s journey. Your willingness to look it can inspire the same in others.
The Dandelion Effect
 With this, we offer the latest edition of “The Dandelion Effect” podcast — a profoundly inspiring conversation with Cho Cho Lwin, a dear friend of India, VJ
Supera, and the Feathered Pipe community. Cho Cho immigrated to Montana from Myanmar with family with a strong desire for a better life for her daughters and the freedom she had struggled for since childhood.
Cho Cho shares her experience of growing up in the male-dominated culture of her homeland, and of the fiery and indomitable spirit that found avenues forward amid roadblocks. She tells of how education and moving with love, hope, and laughter against all odds have brought her to living her life in her way, building educational facilities in Southeast Asia, specifically in remote regions of Myanmar. Join us for "A Woman's Journey to Love & Liberation."
We are also excited to offer another installment from the Feathered Pipe Kitchen. Heidi Goldman, who was one of the core members to the Feathered Pipe founding group, shares a fun “Classic Caesar Salad with a Twist” recipe. Enjoy and share with your friends. There are plenty more creative and delicious additions on the way!
Love & Light,
Feathered Pipe Foundation

Cho Cho Lwin: A Woman's Journey to Love & Liberation
Cho Cho has always been a revolutionary soul. Having grown up in a male-dominated culture and lived through several military government regimes, she rebelled against the traditional systems early on and paved her own life path.
Cho Cho’s life story is one of sass and stubbornness, courage and strength, mixed in with an endearing sense of humor that carries her through the hard times. We talk about her childhood heroes, the women who showed her it’s possible to rise above the stifling sexist rules, and taught her the importance of speaking up for herself and speaking out for what she believed will lead to a better world.

Classic Caesar Salad With A Twist – Heidi Goldman
In this recipe from the Feathered Pipe’s Kitchen, Heidi Goldman, one of co-founders of the Ranch, shares the ever-shifting way she makes a Caesar Salad. Her recipe, like a yoga practice, changes every time. Think of it as Caesar Salad meets Parvritta Trikonasana (Revolved Triangle Pose). It’s all about finding your balance. Play with your edge. Whisk in the moment..
