These beautiful world class works of Himalayan Art from the Rubin Museum of Art are available to download and print for personal use on a shrine or wall, as desktop wallpaper on a computer or mobile device, and can be sent through email as gifts for friends. This gallery will surely grow as we collaborate with more museums, institutions, and collectors. More »

    Join us April 19th at the Tricycle Community Book Club when Allan Lokos will start discussing his new book, Pocket Peace: Effective Practices for Enlightened Living. Can't wait? Neither can we.

    Allan Lokos at the Tricycle Community Book Club Paid Member

    Posted by Sam Mowe on 06 Apr 2010
    Starting April 19th, Allan Lokos will be leading the Tricycle Community Book Club in a discussion of his new book, Pocket Peace: Effective Practices for Enlightened Living. Allan is the founder and guiding teacher of the Community Meditation Center in New York City. From the pages of Pocket Peace: It may seem surprising, but spiritual practice is not about becoming a better person. You are already whole and perfect as you are. Spiritual practice is about becoming present to that perfection. Mindfulness is the quality that opens the door to the presence of our true self. We become present to what is happening within us and around us as it is happening. More »
