Practice Center - BPAC

People like a show. Don't try to tell them, as no amount of linear-thought in words may reach all but the most gifted. Instead, put on a stage show, a fight, a performance. The dance, the forms, the katas, the hand motions, the speed, the correct postures.

Foundation

By comprehensive dissemination of mind-altering information and education, in order that the mass consciousness of humankind may be nudged in a positive direction, thus altering the course of events, and thereby 'saving the world' from the misguided roads and highway of error, self aggrandizement, discompassion for other beings, personal greed, poor choices, lack of education, inconsideration of the negatie and sure consqequences of lower and worse, outright evil nature. Thehre is scant time remaining, with wars out-breaking, corruption penetrating the highest levels of governance, and material pursuits overwhelming the still, small voice of enlightened progress.

RENTING

Rent a place with large roof-area that accommodates a few people in the sunny mornings, and nice windows, to work with natural lighting. Large rooms with wood flooring for video, can install wall mirrors. good to practice fitness, yoga, singing, counseling groups. If rent home with land, or townhouse with roof or large balcony, can hang double-size mosquito netting, or build simple structure and screen it. Parking, with a gate. English-speaking university students. Further, if unfortunate circumstances arise, would be trapped in the location, or like our land, own but not be living there.

Expect the first days and even weeks, months to be lonely, and a challenge. Always compare with homeless (which is also lonely), and with no money. Anticipate the difficulties of starting fresh, to meet the requirements of successful transition. Treat ourselves to good food, and easy living at first. Balance the loss of routine, ease, and familiarity, with the potential for improvement.

Hire secretary, translator, massage, exercise, write jobthai ad. Write up full list of duties. Lease space, new hire can help me look. Hire only after a trial period.
