| Hello I'm Oliver - I chose Englishman as a name because I tried lods of others but they were all taken and somehow I ended up with that. I am 35 by the way and I go to a group in Hitchin UK which is nice because I am the youngest by far so they listen to my jokes. However there may be 2 new recruits who may change that.... Best wishes to you all. |

hi,
i just found the little nudge to introduce myself.
I am Sjahari. I already posted a poem here, called "Discovery Island" and there is a radio program too which i think will be repeated by Esaias.
Besides writing and reading poetry, my next best and biggest passion, in fact the first actually, is a modern improvisational dance practise I am intensely involved in called "Contact Improvisation". Anyone else here do this? This is a beautiful community that I have and have connections everywhere in the world through it. In some ways very much like the subud community. I dance 6 to 8 hours a week. sometimes more. would dance all day everyday if I could.
I also have to make a living, and to do that I am a Medical Doctor. Traditional, straight and narrow, and dont talk to me about anything wonky please. I eat organic food and brown rice and lentils sometimes, but only at my Contact retreats. I also pretend i am an alternative guy when I am there. Well. When I am there I am. Totally. It is a total other thing. anyway. Specialist in Internal medicine. Work in the ICU and hospital sort of thing. Dont eat lentil soup in the hospital. Also do office specialty in Rheumatology.
I also have another designation. Many people know me as "Lavinia's Dad" and in Subud circles that is often how I am introduced. It bugs me a little not having an identity of my own. but there it is.
so thats a little about me but not everything. My next radio poetry reading is going to be called "After the Touch" and it will be poetry I have written related to my dance practise. |

Hi all
If you dont know who I am by now...
Well take a sneaky peak at the information pages under Subud Radio, yes that's right - SUBUD RADIO - wow! What a great idea, Radio for Subud!
anyway take a look at the info pages on the left and you'll see stuff about me.
My favourite film is Meet Joe Black, but it's been nearly a year since I hit the cinema...

Hello : I am Susilowati, from Chile.
I was opened in 1969. I have made my life in Subud. Married to a Subud helper and 5 kids in Subud.
I want to say that I have gone through a loooong process in Subud.
It has been full of surprises and good advice for my life. There have been lots of tests too, which have been always good lessons. This spiritual path, changed my destiny. I am glad I had enough patience until I could see some fruits of the latihan. |

I'm Valencia... I'm 29 years old, have three kids (11, 10 and 8 years old), I currently live in Durham, North Carolina, USA, but I'm originally from London. I am half Irish, and half Colombian and my parents are in Subud.
I enjoy good music, photography, being silly, making fun of myself, painting & drawing (I'm not that good, but in my head I am so awesome), a bit of intelligent, sarcastic humor (check out: www.xkcd.com), dancing, and lots of things... in the hope people will realize I am weird.
My dream is to become a ninja and randomly drop from ceilings. I haven't tested this, I'm not sure if it's my talent, but I see all the ninjas you guys can't.
Esias: I'm emailing you right now with a radioshow I made a while back, and another one which is more of a compilation of music I love. |

Hi everybody... my name's Bucho, and I'm very new to the world of Subud. In fact, I haven't even been opened yet - that's not going to take place until January sometime. I'm not a terribly spiritual person, but it is something that I do have a lot of interest in, and so I decided to give it a go, and see what kind of experiences I have.
About me... I'm a network engineer by day and aspiring author by night. Also... I'm a post junkie... this will be the third message board that I post on. Anyways, that's about all for now. You'll probably be reading a lot of my posts in the future. |

Ok, I finaly did it. My hart is racing from excitment. I feel like being on the stage under a spot light except there is no spotlight here in this room in this night and the lamp on the table shines down ...I'm safe
My name is Neven, I was born and grew up in Croatia now living in Andaluzia, Spain in a town of Orgiva. It was here that I was open only a 2-3 months ago and been a happy Latihan doer ever since
I live an unstable life but one that does not lack dinamic and excitment. I'm a juggler and a jewellery maker (making things out of silver plated wire). My pasions are writeing (just starting), filmakeing (...well...v'got me self a half decent dv camera), philosophy, and from a year ago healthy way of living. I've made my self into an experiment as to how vibrant can my life become through "proper" nutrients and feeling good. Results are promising
I'm 28 and I just love the see. Don't swim so good though, but it's something that I'll have plesure to work on next summer...and I'm an optimist.
In thruth I'd love to blab away on all kind of diferent subjects and I guess I will on some other thread.
I'm happy to find this site, thank you. many hugs and good luck.
Intent on loving you all )

hi, my name is Arthur aka Tuur or a door.....
sometimes I am open and sometimes I slam in your face.
It has nothing to do with being violent, more with my blunt honesty.
I did subud for 20 years, quit for a year and lately it seems, that it is coming on my path again.
I do miss the energy I feel in the latihan. I don't miss the liars who pretend to do latihan.
Or those people who are nice in my face and laugh in my back.
huh, look at me.....after a year I AM STILL MAD!
I live in full commitmend which in my case means; I have no work for 3 years now(do work sometimes as a handyman/painter/frisbeeteacher/whatever needed...)
and have no money,most of the time, but my beliefs are so strong that I am not worried about food or bills.
This last month, I had no money to pay the rent or the elektrobill or to buy food.
and what happend was, i think it is cool, but i lost my appetite for food.
I ate very little this last month.
And when I was hungry, i got money to buy some food.....
And that always happens...
When there is a need,there is providence
So I don't have to worry...
Ofcourse my story goes on but you can pm me for more info.
Later,
Arthur |

Alright?
I'm Matt, a subud member since exactly one while ago and a member of the group in sheffield.
I'm:
a musician and singer of questionable quality
an "erratic" dancer
dangerous with fire poi
a service engineer for a company that fixes fume extractors (yawn... i know)
paid too much for what i do but not complaining
currently teaching myself Francais et/y Espanyol (see what i did there) with varying sucess
a good climber
and a fearless snowboarder, with ambitions to teach sometime
Signed up to this because i feel i should and long sundays leave me with little to do! (i joke - i want to meet more people who share the same gift i've been lucky enough to find in this life)
especially french or spanish people so i can practice what i've learnt (or is that learned? i'm never sure)
Anyway i have a job that takes me around the country and i'm not afraid of ruthlessly using the directory to get to different groups!
so expect a vist in the future
lotas love and kisses where appropriate
Matt (for now...)
P.s
Love the radio Esiais but Meet Joe Black is the worst film ever made ever. |

Sorry to hear you don't like that film chap, I guess I'm just into that other worldly death type thing. Oh and by the way people, Matt's a self-confessed fan of Eminem, so need I say more...?
Obviously never attended TUNIVERSITY!
Later dude, glad you're finding your feet with Subud, oh and if you wanna try your hand at broadcasting sometime, let me know and I'll set it up.
Strictly no Eminem - I really will boot you off the broadcast for that kind of violation.
Esaias (The Godfather (of Subud Radio that is)). |
