Yesterday night I attended a Landmark Forum session at St Joseph’s school. The usual forces were at play - buzzing Landmark graduates, no coffee/food, disoriented and generally happy or confused guests, more buzzing Advanced Course graduates, and Gopal Rao, the charismatic Landmark Forum patriarch, who has been doing this work in India for 19 years now. Gopal is a bit less physically charismatic than Praveen Puri, but both are quite powerful individuals.
One line by Gopal stayed in my head - “Life is a series of conversations….”. For some reason, i was reminded of reading J. Krishnamurthy, who i’ve always considered some sort of a Nietzschean shaman.

“Life is a series of conversations….”.
Nice thought! Gives a different perspective on interaction, networking and communication and how it can relate to ‘life’!

A series of conversations, well intentioned or otherwise. Gopal was my Landmark Forum leader in Perth, 2002, and the experience was literally transforming. I plan to thank him personally for this one day :o)
