Train Out of Cicero
This story takes you around the world, beginning in 1969 with my hopping a Train out of Cicero on the outskirts of Chicago, Illinois and an encounter with an angry hobo; to a tale about how to act in the face of aggression as told by Sri Ramakrishna, the great saint of Calcutta, India, telling of a snake and a sadhu and how to act in the face of aggression. Here are words, pictures and a recorded narration with music and sound effects. Every page holds a separate recording and at the end of the page, simply click to flip to the next one and the narration and music will continue. If you desire to listen to the story and wonderful music as a whole, without the breaks of the different pages, you will find on the very last page, the embed of the complete story and music: Train out of Cicero Music: Spann's Stomp, by Otis Spann, 1924-1970, the greatest Blues piano player of all time. The music on the final page music is from a live performance by: Anoushka Shankar, Bhairavi Raga

I watched a bunch <strong>of</strong> lovely moon-night country fly by, the fields<br />
all barren, white birds scattering in the fall moonlight, thinking<br />
the thoughts <strong>of</strong> an angel at war.<br />
