The Bodhi Tree Enlightenment Camp
- Mid October day, A vigilant 6 year old boy was walking the sage brush hillside trails of Conejo Valley.
- Despite being weighed down by a deep isolation from society, with having severe austism and an expressive language barrier, he continued to naturally allow his young fearless spirit to lead him to search, find and create gifts to share along the way. As his strong sense of curiosity directs his steady footsteps down a long lone path, he naturally learns he connects with many people and things around him. Captivated by the flickering leaf landscape, he takes his steady time soaking up the beat of the warm sun, feeling the breeze, as he squints up, he looks for a glimpse of insight, he suddenly feels the land pulling for his attention. Stopping in his tracks, he gets down on his knees and focuses on a small wild seed's fresh sprout peaking out of the native nutrient dense soil. Enlightened by his newly founded support tree he then feels his heart tell him that he should carry it back to his local community. With a burst of excitement, he safely puts it in his pocket, and keeps climbing his mountain.
- His current life's success is having discovered a brand new outlook for his future. Bodhi noticed something so small and delicate, and saw its importance to be shared. He picked up on a small fragile & rare opportunity to make a big change that most wouldve missed.
