Fair winds young man!
Dear Barrie,
Your teaching of The Self will be our guiding light
The White Eagle of the North,
A Moody Blues Song he loved .
He repeated the first lines of the Lyrics when calling a Friend.
His sense of Humour was unique and his connection to people
was elevated when starting his Journey via Yoga first and then
Vedanta.
Om Shanti

Barrie, we all know and Love the "character" that you are. You can be reverent,
in speaking of Spiritual Matters, caring and empathetic towards everyone and self effacing in speaking of yourself. Your humor, sometimes off the wall, along with your
strong opinions on everything, especially the price of Gas and the habits of politicians, encourages us all not to take ourselves too seriously.
You have encouraged all of us to look for the Spirit within and in this way you are remembered. Until we meet again, Chris
I met Barry in Uttarkashi, India. In 1983. We became friends, and he taught me one of the Vedanta scriptures, Atmabodh. I will always remember how dedicated he was. I was a student of yoga.
Later , in Canada, we reconnected and remained friends for all these years, meeting regularly for coffee, and he would join our family for dinner and discussions. We always discussed spiritual life, and the philosophy of Vedanta. My husband and my daughter Karuna always enjoyed his company. May his light continue to shine.
