Subject: [K-list] Remembering Rick Puravs
From: Harshaimtm


On 1999/04/24 14:53, Harshaimtm posted thus to the K-list:

Harsha: I was saddened to hear of the death of Rick Puravs from Cher (his
significant other) on the K-List. I have heard he leaves behind a young son
of 10 years. My heart goes out to his loved ones and his family. Rick had
been part of the K-List for a long time and was also a member of
HarshaSatsangha. Although most of us never met Rick or knew him personally,
his beautiful personality came through his e-mails. Perhaps even in
cyberspace, there can be a feeling of community. Rick was a wise,
compassionate, often funny, and a deeply caring person. I remember how
sympathetic he was to Dharma on the K-List about a year ago, when she faced
some difficult times. That was very characteristic of Rick. His nature was
that of encouraging others. He was always moved by the suffering of others.
Recently, just a few days ago, Rick had posted a website for helping Kosovo
refugees. Rick and I never corresponded privately but (about a year ago)
there were many public exchanges on Gurus, Kundalini, Pranayama,
Enlightenment, etc., on the K-List. In many of the conversations Jan, Janpa,
David, Kurt, and others we know were active participants and there was a lot
of depth as well as humor. I liked Rick very much. Probably, he had a good
feeling for me also as he had Joined HarshaSatsangha. If Rick had ever
written to me, I am sure I would have said, "Love you Brother." Rick gave
people deep love and acceptance without making a big point of it as it was
simply his nature to do so. Such people find love and acceptance where ever
they go. Here is what Rick wrote on the K-List about a year ago.

know all living beings as your lover
remember the kindness of all your lovers
develop the wish to repay the kindness of all your lovers
develop affectionate love
develop great compassion

the bodies of one's self and others are not two

Mudita (boundless delight in the attainment of others),
Rick

 Love you Brother
