"Samsara" Definition: n.
1. Hinduism, the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth. 2.
Buddhism, the transmigration or rebirth of a person. 2. Buddhism, the
transmigration or rebirth of a person. [Sanskrit, literally: a passing
through, from sam altogether + sarati it runs]
Samsara was completed shortly following the birth of our daughter Samsara
Cheyenne Boots, on October 21, 2000. Our midwife was a staunch
advocate for breastfeeding and a print from this graphite pencil drawing now
hangs in the midwives office. For anyone considering making a baby, I highly
recommend the midwife natural method, and if possible, make it a homebirth.
Giving birth is not a sickness and as far as I'm concerned should not be
treated as such. If you live in the Peterborough Ontario area here is a link

Stefanie pictured here in
the process of feeding our child, wholeheartedly concurs with this
sentiment.
Samsara, our daughter's name, came through having read the Herman Hesse novel
Siddhartha the story of Buddha.
