please take a minute and pray that the test be successful.   if it works, it could really help to bring the idea of energy clothing to many people.   ZENsei started with the dream of bringing spirituality into the everydayness of life.  it started with the thought that what we wear can actually change how we feel.  that our clothes could help change us on a molecular level.  the fact that this concept and the design and feel of our clothes would touch people at neiman marcus makes me very happy.

clearly, i would love to see this work, but either way, i thank the buyers there for finding us and for giving us the chance to be really successful.  Neiman Marcus dedicates themselves to finding lines that are great, but unknown and making them known.  i stand in awe that they would feel this is possible for ZENsei .

i pray that all involved in this endeavor feel blessed and that good things happen for everyone.

what a huge gift she gave me that day.  i am humbled by her kindness and in awe of the goodness that exudes from her.  she will never know how much i appreciate the opportunity she has given me.   i walk into this without knowing where it will take me.  but simply know when we can just give of ourselves to help others, the world finds ways to help us. 

in my life, the only thing i have ever wanted is to help people.   to love and accept them just as they are.  in being able to share some parts of my life, i am hoping that the success i have had will inspire other to reach for that which they want and that the mistakes i have made will save others from walking into the same places.  for in reality, i think we are all so similar.  we may look different and do different things, but underneath it all, don’t we all want the same thing, to find happiness and avoid suffering.

i truly hope some of you will come to these lectures as i look forward to meeting you and getting the chance to share together with you.

i will introducing my new book of stories and sayings.  i wrote this book as much for myself as for you, for it contains some  of things i most need to remember.  in it’s open at random format, it makes these reminders very accessible.  the book is  called,

“ZEN LIFE”  – An open at random book of guidance

here is a quote from the book that seems so appropriate to me at this moment

“As the roots of a growing tree push up through the ground, the plants and bushes that were once nearby are pushed aside to make room.  Often the way of nature is the way of this world.  When we find our lives are being torn apart, look to see if the roots of a new beginning are growing within.  Make room for that which is coming.”

details are still being worked out as to when and where i will be speaking but i will keep you informed through the blog, by following me on twitter (dannylevin) or by becoming my friend on facebook (danny@zensei.com).

this will be a new and fun adventure and i am excited to see where it goes from here.  stay tuned for more details.

i wrote ZEN life as much for myself as i did for others.  i gathered the things i most needed to remember into this easily accessible “open at random book”.  Open ZEN life anywhere.  read it slowly, a page at a time, and see what if any feelings emerge.  if something comes to you from a story,  it is yours.  sit with it a few moments and simply watch the thoughts and feelings that emerge.  allow it to guide you, without judgment.

or you can use it as a talisman.  meditate and ask for its guidance.  it can help you to focus on a quality  to remember for the day.  hopefully, it will speak to you as it does to me.

ZEN life is available here through ZENsei or wherever fine books are sold.
