Julia in the Storm

Julia Butterfly Hill climbed a 2000 year old redwood in Northern California and lived in its branches for over 2 years to save it from the chainsaws of a logging company. Her first winer she was nearly killed as a terrible storm raged through her tiny perch. Julia describes the horror, and the life lessons, of those terrifying hours.

I am reminded of the contract one had to sign before being admitted to a Zen Monastry. It said: "When I die in the process, I agree". Yes, detachment goes all the way... until we find that there is no-thing to be attached to and no-one to be attached to that no-thing-ness. I love how she puts herself right in the midst of the direct experience. Great Woman! Rare indeed.
