a few years ago we met bill raines and his friends... this is an old photo from that time
bill was an inspirational teacher and guide to many.

bill_raines

this year, when we arrived in phoenix arizona bill was close to his transition.
sandy, bill's wife, gave us permission to share this precious moment with you, saying bill would have wanted it:

here’s deva saying good bye and chanting for him.
although bill wasn’t conscious, there was no doubt that he heard and received the mantras.

5 days after deva’s visit, bill passed peacefully, with sandy and close friend mika chanting the gayatri at his bedside.

go with god, bill.

denny, off minder duties, serenades us at deva’s birthday party.
