DEDICATION
& AKNOWLEGMENTS
DEDICATION
This web site is dedicated to my meditation teacher Dr. Ramamurti
S. Mishra (Shri Brahmananda Saraswati) and Dr. A. L. Mehta and Dr.
Aruna Mehta, my spiritual guides. They generously taught me about
my soul and about the Chakras and about the true joy of art/life.
I also want to thank the Roman Catholic Church for welcoming me
home. Dr. Mishra's wish was that all of his students feel the truth,
according to our definition of truth and our religious upbringing.
That is my journey and my art is my vehicle. I wish the same for
all of you.
AKNOWLEDGMENTS

to Robert J. Shiffler for his support as a collector, and the Robert
J. Shiffler Foundation staff, Peter Huttinger, Barry Rosenberg and
