Philosophy of a Tibetan Mandala.
“The Tibetan monks make
mandalas out of dyed sand laid out into big, beautiful designs.
And when they’re done, after days or weeks of work, they wipe it all away. They let it all go,
no pain, no regrets. That is happiness. That is bliss. The euphoria of Nirvana. We live for
that. Just for the experience. We paint a picture and we erase it. ”
― Thisuri Wanniarachchi, The Terrorist's Daughter

Lyrics
Vladmir Putin sings Blueberry hill
I found my thrill
On Blueberry Hill
On Blueberry Hill
When I found you
On Blueberry Hill
On Blueberry Hill
When I found you
The moon stood still
On Blueberry Hill
And lingered until
My dream came true
On Blueberry Hill
And lingered until
My dream came true
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Though we're apart
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Though we're apart
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill
You're part of me still
For you were my thrill
On Blueberry Hill

Judy Garland - Somewhere over the rainbow.

Mike Reed plays "Somewhere, over the
Rainbow" on the Hammond Organ
https://youtu.be/yxI65F48frs
"Over
the Rainbow" (often referred to as "Somewhere Over the Rainbow")
is a classic Academy Award-winning ballad, with music by Harold Arlen and
lyrics by E.Y. Harburg.[1] It was written for the 1939 movie The Wizard of
Oz, and was sung by actress Judy Garland in
her starring role as Dorothy Gale.[1] It soon became her signature song, and one of the most enduring
standards of the 20th century. About five minutes into the film, Dorothy sings
the song after failing to get her aunt and uncle to listen to her relate an
unpleasant incident involving her dog, Toto, and the town spinster, Miss Gulch.
Dorothy's Aunt Em tells
her to "find yourself a place where you won't get into any trouble."
This prompts Dorothy to walk off by herself, musing to Toto, "'Some place
where there isn't any trouble.' Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto?
There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat, or a train. It's far,
far away. Behind the moon, beyond the rain..." at which point she begins
singing.
Judy Garland (1922–1969)
One of the brightest, most tragic movie stars of Hollywood's
Golden Era, Judy Garland was
a much-loved character whose warmth and spirit, along with her rich and
exuberant voice, kept theatre-goers entertained with an array of delightful
musicals. She was born Frances Ethel Gumm on 10 June 1922 in Minnesota, the
youngest daughter of vaudevillians ... See full bio »
Lyrics
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream,
Really do come true.
There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream,
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

How Microbes Keep Us Healthy
The gut houses trillions of
microbes. Here's what they do
Feb 17, 2015
The gut houses trillions of microbes. They eat what you eat. Many
specialize in fermenting the soluble fiber in legumes, grains, fruits and
vegetables. Certain microbial species are adept at colonizing the mucous layer
of the gut. Mucus contains antimicrobial substances that keep the microbiota at
a slight distance. But it also contains sugars such as those found in breast
milk. Some microbes, often the same ones that specialize in fermenting fiber,
can use these sugars as sustenance when other food is not available. The
by-products of fiber fermentation nourish cells lining the colon. Some
by-products pass into the circulation and may calibrate our immune system in a
way that prevents inflammatory disorders such as asthma and Crohn's disease.

at Work: Fiber Fermenters Keep Us Healthy."
