Meeting Baba-Kundi Ma`at-Shambhala

Last week, in the parking lot of the Whole Foods natural supermarket in my town, I met Baba-Kundi Ma`at-Shambhala. I was drawn to greet him after seeing the following on the back of his car: his name, a kokopelli image (shown above), the Om symbol, mention that he does home improvement work, and a North Carolina license plate.

This gentleman was very approachable and optimistic. When I asked about his home improvement services, he gave me a very attractive pamphlet, addressing home improvement as a way to harmonize our surroundings, and including his growing website (here is his home improvement link), which is entitled "Essence of Paradise". Several of his writings are here, most of which I have yet to read.  

I do not know enough about Baba-Kundi Ma`at-Shambhala to know how much I agree or not with his views and philosophies. I do know that I received very positive vibes from him, that helped recharge my own positive vibes.

Just as I believe in becoming a better trial lawyer from repeatedly being and getting on the road, I similarly believe in the importance of meeting and interacting with inspiring, truly optimistic and harmonious people. Baba-Kundi Ma`at-Shambhala seems to be one of them. Jon Katz.
