The book was lost someway along way and the visit to the farm is a distant memory however I still feel a kinship to the understanding and the "juice" within an unconditional love and caring for one another that I read in the storied words from that beautiful, memorable green volume and the ilumination within the center of the covers mandala, the light that is never lost or fades in meditation... Its great to see the good honest wholegrain talk and conversation on this site continue. Stephen, thanks for still speaking the "hippie" universal truth so often suppressed and overshadowed in this world herenow. Thanks, and Peace to All this season and the next!!

Tnx Ina Mae, good job! She is a beauty and a joy, 39 years later.

In the same town, I was just about to enter my final semester to graduate from the University of Missouri at Columbia with a B.A. in Graphic Design. Stephen made more sense to me about life, truth, vibes, and all things holy brought down to earth where we could understand simply and clearly. I actually got high from just listening to the man, with no other stimulants other than his heart, mind and voice. Stephen was the first real teacher I had ever met, in the spiritual sense of the word. I left school a week later, bounced around the countryside a bit, and then went to the Farm in Tennessee to live there and help build it. Although I physically left the Farm and Stephen a few years later, they never left me, and have always lived in my heart and mind. I urge anyone who may be reading this who is not familiar with Stephen, to visit the Farm if possible, or at least read his words and listen to him on youtube. He changed my life forever for the good, and he may change yours. If you are interested in hearing both eternal and empirical truth unvarnished but intelligently and wittily presented to touch your most cynical nerve and tickle it, then I urge you to pay attention to Stephen Gaskin. This is my story and I am sticking to it. In January 1971, the Caravan came through and Stephen had a gig in Columbia, MO.
