I had recently changed my name on 'Openhand" from Leela to my given name Deborah. I did this as i reflected I may be hiding my 'identity' and felt to be frank and open.

The name Leela originated (in my awareness at the time; two young boys?) from the cartoon Futurama; a trailer tent i owned back then had a round window which reminded me of the cartoon character hence she was so named. The name and the identity of the cartoon character (strong one eyed female) has stayed with me through the years using it in various manner.

Today I was drawn to finish watching (at last) a Gaia video regarding Samadhi;

@~17minutes into the video "" Awakening is not about getting rid of the mind or the matrix, on the contrary when your not identified with it then you can experience the play of life more fully enjoying the show. In ancient teachings this was called the divine game of Leela; the game of playing in duality....then the video goes to a picture of the energy spiral of which recently has been repeating to me constantly.

So to update; my spiritual path as now evolved from cartoon character substance to ancient teachings and can now feel thoroughly at home with my choice of pseudonym ; Leela?
