About Randy
"I have watched Condors soar
over the sacred mountains in Peru. Back at home
in Bangladesh I have danced the dance of the
Condor and seen heights I've never seen before.
In Ireland I have placed my hands on the earth
and felt Mother Earth cry because of the scars
on the sacred site of Tara. In Germany, with my
fellow shamans, I have danced in the fire and
suffered no burns. In a hut in the Amazon I
found myself paralyzed, fighting every demon I
ever had all night long, only to survive and
become a different and better person. Don't tell
me the path of the shaman is not a true path."

wholeness inherent in every person or group
or circumstance that comes for healing and
to honor whatever form in which its pain is
presented to me.

I pledge to be mindful of
speech, thought, and action and their impact
on building relationships both in the
present and through time into future and
past.
-
I pledge to be respectful of
others, even in their differences.

compassion and non-judgment.

myself in public relations and advertising.

appropriate fees.

In service to others, I
pledge to keep my own life and personhood in
balance to the best of my ability.
