Where are we as Subud in the world?
In early 2008, Matthew Clark suggested that during my travels to develop The World, the Search & Subud, I might record visits to Subud members in the form of photo journals.
Perhaps these photo visits to people, groups & regions will help our awareness of being interconnected with other members in the world, or will help us feel closer together in some nebulous way.
As we know, we are nothing special ourselves. What is special is the contact with the Power of God we all receive & how it effects our lives.
These photo journals suggest that beyond a basic similarity, our outer lives are generally quite different, while our great similarity is beyond our ability to express.
Despite our current capability to communicate easily & instantly via voice or email, we live in vastly different & widely separated locations over the world.
Regardless of our involvement or lack of involvement in local Subud groups, I believe most all of us are today following the receiving in our individual lives.
2008 - 2010 : Visits to groups & members in most of the USA & Canada. (Since 2009 accompanied by partner Henrietta McCormack.)
Altogether our travels, always by car, have covered about 50,000 miles & 14,000 photos, edited to about 1,600 image screens. With split screens, there's about 2,500 pictures. Cost is about $20,000 in film & gas. Donations welcome. Thank you. - Simn (February 2011)
