I remember Uncle Norman and his ghost stories he used to tell us. He had such a peaceful , calm mannerism about him. Sorry to say I didn’t keep in touch with him as an adult but he did give me some cherished memories of my childhood.

A little over a year has passed since the passing of our friend and teacher norman. May god bless him and may god bless all of us to remember his quiet suggestions, unobtrusive words of guidance and non dramatic devotion. Always alive in memory and soul.

What a great man. Norman used to look after me when I was was no more than 4 or 5 wandering the aisles of the health food store, the yoga center, and the boutique. He taught me about eating healthy even back then. On occasion he would split a piece of raw sugar cane with me, which to me, is such a great memory. He will always be in my thoughts.

Thank you, Norman, for the gift of your life, a life of love and compassion. Have heard it said that a death in the material world is a birth in the spiritual world. Enjoy your journey through the realms of light.

NORMAN a true GOLDEN SAGE!
I give much gratitude to you for sharing your esoteric knowledge, wisdom and guidence along side with Magana in keeping on the TRUE MASTER PATH throughout these years…
I thank you for all the gifts of “mana” you have bestowed on me. Endless boxes of 10 year old ginsing. Many do not know this, he held several degrees. One was in botany. Norman was indeed a botanist…
I thank you for sharing with me your “golden” transition. I am honored…
Norman's selflessness, sincere effortless effort, tireless dedication, and AMAZING austerity culminating in supremely enlightened wisdom and all-embracing compassion throughout the years…
We all thank you…
As “GuruDev” would say,“Practice, Practice, Practice, Lo Behold the Goal”…
Norman would say after each class,
“Please, don't forget to take all of your bodies with you.”…
NORMAN a true GOLDEN SAGE!

Norman was the go-to person for questions that one did not want to bother Walt or Magana with. He was a teacher to the end, he will be missed. Rest in Peace.
