Dear Timeless Spirit readers,

It has been my joy to share these past few months with you. Timeless Spirit is a gift and it has been my pleasure to give back in the form of the Breathe Wisdom column. As most people on this planet my life has been greatly affected by the economic situation. Most of my time has been spent in service and now it is time for me to go out into the world of commerce. I have had to let go of a number of projects I love to give my time to and writing this column is one of these projects. I wish you all the very best. May you continue to grow and open your hearts and minds. I'm sure Timeless Spirit will continue to inspire and support you in this.

Many blessings,
Jacqueline Kramer

To learn more about Jacqueline and the Hearth Foundation please read her interview in the November 2007 issue of Timeless Spirit Magazine.

Jacqueline Kramer is the director of the Hearth Foundation. She has been studying and practicing Theravadin Buddhism for 30 years, is a Religious Science Practitioner and student of the world's wisdom traditions. Her root teacher was Annagarika Dhamma Dinna who taught in the Sri Lankan tradition. She also studied with Ven. Ananda Maitreya, Achan Sobin Namto, Ven. Punnaji Mahathera and Ayya Khema.

Her work with mothering and homemaking came out of an insight she had one afternoon while out in her back yard. As she looked into the eyes of the neighbour's cow she had an experience of unity and love for the planet and the desire to help protect the planet for her newborn daughter and all other beings. She realized this was her life's purpose. Jacqueline writes a weekly newsletter, books on mothering as a spiritual practice, and has created online lay Buddhist practice classes which she offers, as is the Buddhist tradition, at no cost. She is a mother, grandmother, daughter, sister and friend.
