The End of An Era: Bon Voyage to

THE BODHI TREE by Sharon Hall

n a quiet street in West Hollywood, three former Aerospace engineers from Douglas Aircraft in Santa Monica, Stan Madsen, Phil Thompson, and Dan Morris opened a small, metaphysical bookstore. It was the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. Phil and Stan met at Douglas in the 1960’s. Both were interested in the mind, ideas and books. On the day he started at Douglas, Phil met another engineer starting that day, Bernie Glassman. He was into Zen and meditation. Soon other like-minded seekers became the nucleus of a group who’d meet to discuss ideas and books by people like Alan Watts, J. Krishnamurti, and D.T. Suzuki. Stan and Phil also became initiated into Transcendental Meditation during this time: “There was a group of maybe 10 or 15 of us at Douglas who’d get together. We’d have lunch at the luncheonette, or meet after work to talk...All these teachers and ideas that were coming from the East were sort of revolutionary. Between TM and Zen and the teachers, everybody started looking for answers — what was it all about; why are we here, and maybe there’s something better for us to do.” The future Roshi Glassman began to study with Maizumi Roshi in L.A., and Phil went with him on occasion: “Bernie was real serious about it. I love the fact he told his mother when he was in college, “One day I’m going to be a Zen monk!” Stan and Phil left the aerospace industry, and purchased the original property on Melrose Avenue in 1978. According to the owners, that time period saw a real interest in metaphysicals and

“I think the Bodhi Tree’s impact has been immeasurable, and at the center of it all were these two really great guys. If anyone in the world has good karma, it’s Phil and Stan.” — Marianne Williamson

spiritual development. Bookstores were a place where people of like minds could gather; they were a place where spiritual communities formed and strengthened. Now, after 40 years as proprietors of what may be the best known metaphysical bookstore in the country, the owners are retiring. The beloved Bodhi Tree is moving on to its next incarnation. The spot is surrounded by noise and high-end retail; traffic whizzes by, and it’s hard to find on-street parking. The original location, with its expansions and re-models over the years, has certainly changed from being a small store on a quiet, shady street. But in the back, the giant ficus religiosa, also known as a Bodhi tree, has grown 40 feet or more. Phil says that it came to them in a little pot from a neighbor, who’d grown it from seed. Now the girth of the trunk is bigger than two men. They don’t know what will happen to it, he says; the new owners may decide to chop it down. When asked about the future of the bookstore, the philosophical Phil and Stan are both likely to say the same thing: Everything changes. The two have no plans to open another, having recognized a long time back that such a project needs a certain critical mass of community to support a store like this. They are trying to sell their entire inventory; the location was sold over a year ago. Stan says they are in fairly strong negotiations with two or three groups: “It seems highly probable that it — the store — will go on in some form. We’d just prefer an actual space rather than just a virtual one.” I asked the two what their favorite time period was; did they have a sense when they were in the right place, doing the right thing? For Phil, it was from the middle 70’s on: “That’s when Swami Muktananda for example was getting a thousand people at Santa Monica Auditorium. People were sincere then; they were interested in serious things.” Stan added that it has been a lot of fun, and noted the right livelihood aspect of the experience: “Many people look for that. I kind of tripped into this by accident and it has all the elements of right livelihood. I enjoyed doing it, it created energy, and the social interaction was very exciting. We were fellow travelers; we felt that what we were doing, was worthwhile.” In the early 80’s, the business, according to Stan and Phil, was doing quite well. They were running out of space for their ever-increasing inventory and had a choice to either move or remodel: “We loved the location — it was ideal in those days; the whole neighborhood was open for parking.” They chose to remodel, more than doubling their original size. At that point, everyone thought the expansion was complete. But, as they have described on their website, a small event occurred that was to have huge consequences: “On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1983, actress Shirley MacLaine wandered into the Bodhi Tree Bookstore and embarked on a journey that changed her life, the life of the bookstore, and the spiritual life of mainstream America.”* MacLaine had come to the Bodhi Tree on the recommendation of her mentor. According to Stan, “She came here to find the books because, in the early days if you were interested in this material, you couldn’t just go into any bookstore to find it. We had a monopoly in the Los Angeles area. We were the only game in town, initially.” An explosion of metaphysical bookstores sprouted up, triggered by the tremendous energy that was generated as celebrities began talking about these spiritual issues: “Carol Burnett was another celebrity visitor in the 80’s. She talked about reading the book, ‘The Initiate’, by Cyril Scott. Within 24 hours, every copy in the U.S was sold out.” They started having book signings with an amazing assortment of authors and (continued on page 40)

An Interview with Marianne Williamson:

A Course in Miracle Weight Loss by Tree Bernstein

“...Our deepest fear is not that we his passage, often attributed to Nelson Mandela’s inaugural address, actually comes from A Return to Love, by Marianne are inadequate. Our deepest fear Williamson, published in 1992. Williams is quite gracious about the misattributed quote. “As honored as I would be had President is that we are powerful beyond Mandela quoted my words, indeed he did not. I have no idea where that story came from, but I am gratified that the paragraph measure. It is our light, not our has come to mean so much to so many people.” Perhaps for Williamson, offering it up is just part of the ongoing A Course in darkness, that most frightens us. Miracles. Since the mid-seventies, Marianne Williamson has taught and We ask ourselves, who am I to be talked and written about A Course in Miracles.

Despite some theological detractors, ACIM continues to thrive in spiritual communities around the fabulous? Actually, who are you world.

more, when they get to lesson ten in the book, they can set-up a free teleconference with me. Some of the material is quite deep.

People may have questions. It makes me happy to think I can support the process. WP: In your new book, A Course in Weight Loss, you say you want to show how to understand the intersection between spirituality and weight loss. What is the connection? MW: My book is not written for the person who wants to lose 5 or 10 pounds. This book addresses the issue of seriously compulsive behavior. What happens when a person has a serious compulsion is that the compulsion overrides the self-discipline and rationality of that person, it overrides the brain circuitry of self-discipline, even self-will. However, while the compulsion overrides the brain circuitry of self-discipline, God overrides the compulsion. It takes a spiritual connection to get to recovery. When I was first writing the book, there was discussion that perhaps the book should just be about compulsive and addictive behavior. But I felt that while culturally there tends to be mainstream understanding while dealing with alcoholism or drug addiction that a spiritual experience is somehow called for. As a society we tend to view food compulsion — obesity — as simply a lack of will. I am disappointed by the lack of compassion. I felt that it would be helpful to move the conversation to spiritual, emotional, and psychological blocks to unwise eating patterns. WP: Why is forgiveness so important and why is it the path to inner peace? MW: From a spiritual perspective, there is only one of us here. There really is no place where your mind stops and mine starts. When I have attack thoughts, unforgiving thoughts towards another person, I’m really attacking myself. For the compulsive eater unwise eating is an act of violence towards oneself, it is an act of betrayal. Something happens in the brain circuitry that interprets overeating as comforting when it is actually self-destructive. At the deepest level this represents a place of lack of love towards the self, for whatever reason it has become an entrenched emotional pattern. Forgiving oneself and others becomes a profound component in dismantling these thoughts and behaviors of violence towards oneself. WP:Then how does the seeker of peace, or of love, or even of weight loss reconcile the high ideals and philosophy of spiritual practice versus everyday life? MW: Real spirituality is eminently practical. In A Course in Miracles, we say that at their peak religion and psychotherapy are the same. Nothing could be more practical than being released from compulsive cravings. What could be more practical than dismantling these blocks? Tree Bernstein, a.k.a. Ms. Metaphor (AskMsMetaphor.com), is a graduate of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University, where she learned her peas and cues and a MFA in Writing & Poetics.

Williamson will be teaching A Return to Love Workshop Practicing the Principles of A Course in Miracles, at the Los Angeles Airport Marriott Hotel in L.A. July 1-3. The website marianne. com has the details.

MSIA teaches Soul Transcendence, which is becoming aware of yourself as a Soul and as one with God, not as a theory but as a living reality. The Soul is who you truly are; it is more than your body, your thoughts or your feelings. It is the highest aspect of your Self, where you and God are one. MSIA provides tools and techniques that allow you to experience your Soul and, therefore, your own divinity.

“All that you want to be, you already are. All you have to do is move your awareness there and recognize the reality of your own Soul.”

MSIA presents an approach that focuses on how to incorporate spirituality into your everyday living. We call it “practical spirituality”. Visit www.msia.org for more information on events and classes in your area.

How I Healed from Bipolar Disorder, Thyroid Disease & Became a Healer 13 Years ago, I was being treated for Bipolar Disorder and Thyroid Disease, taking 5 medica�ons a day. I kept hearing that I was here to help people heal their lives. Hearing this over and over for months, ﬁnally I said, “God, if you want me to be a healer, show me the White Light.” A friend of mine was taking photos of me. When we downloaded the photos, there was the White Light hi�ng me in the heart area. I became a hypnotherapist and was teaching classes on how to talk to your Angels. On December 3, 2004, I was $1,000.00 short on my rent and no money for Xmas. I said, “GOD, you want me to be a healer, then pay my rent.” Within an hour, one of my clients knocked on my door and handed me a check for $1,500.00, saying, Spirit told her boyfriend to give this to me. I a�ended a DNA ac�va�on workshop, and during this workshop I requested that I be healed. Within 30 days I was oﬀ all Bipolar medica�on. I went to school to become a Master in (NLP) Neuro-linguis�c-programing, then on to Thetahealing®. Within a few months of my ThetaHealing® Training, I healed myself of Thyroid Disease. Now I take no Medica�ons. Since then I have healed from Hemorrhoids and a Herniated Disc. I also healed my belief that if you work for GOD you’re broke. ..and MANY OTHER BELIEFS!! I am so thankful that I get to help many people heal their lives.

(Bodhi Tree continued from page 5) spiritual leaders: “Some of these people were really popular they would fill the place. It was very high energy. At one time, we had about 100 people on staff. We were open from 10am to 11pm.”** Stan: “We were like a small super-store.” Phil: “When the first story came up about us closing, we started getting so many letters and emails. How their parents first brought them here when they were 10 and 11, and now they’re parents and grandparents...so many changes. Not to namedrop, but when Jerry Brown was governor the first time, he used to come here by himself or with his girlfriend. Nobody would bat an eye. He was an ex-Jesuit and he’d buy all these great books....and he read all them.” Here you were doing your own thing, and you’ve got this place, and it just began to touch more and more people. You saw that as the energy started to come back to you; how it was effecting so many people, in so many ways. Stan: “People would come by and say, “You don’t remember me, do you? I used to work here!”

I read you were closing. I am happy this is profitable, but I would like to let you know how powerful your energy is (or your store). I used to be a straight ticket Republican from the Northeast. The Bodhi Tree introduced me to other religions, vegetarian foods, meditation, and wonderful tea that is free. Whenever I had a bad day I would go to the Bodhi Tree, sip on some tea, and pick up the latest self-help book. I also picked up some Oracle cards and a fabulous string of Mantra Beads that I get comments on still when I pull them out. I always tell everyone who asks to go to the Bodhi Tree. This is truly sad. — A Fan of the dilemma.” Stan: “The problem is that we have been watching our part of this market deteriorating for a long time; maybe a few percent per year for 10 years. When the economy went sour in 2008, all of a sudden sales dropped —18% the first year; another 18% the next year, etc. We’re doing almost 50% less business than we were 10 years ago. Phil and I are in our late 70’s. We’re old time book

I am SO sad to hear that you are closing after so many years of such wonderful and special service to our community of readers. Just last night I was talking to a friend about picking up a book on building ‘dreaming skills’ and I said, “Where am I going to go for these books if the Bodhi Tree goes away?” It made me sad and hopeful that someone can come along and carry on the unique traditions that the Bodhi Tree started for so many of us. I’m grateful for you who planted this spiritual landmark in LA and I hope retirement treats you all well - you certainly earned it. — A Fan Phil: “It would be interesting to even track our ex-employees; where they went, what they are doing now.” One past employee was Leslie Snyder, the original owner and publisher of The Whole Person Calendar of Events in Southern California. Ms. Snyder started the magazine as a way to let the spiritual community of Southern California know more about the events in and around the area — including the events and happenings at the Bodhi Tree. And now? Phil: “Well, the area has turned into a really high end retail space. So, that’s part

people — we’re primarily interested in books. What is needed now are people to whom books are important, but who are interested in the social contacts, social media, the events — the nonbook activities. It needs new energy.” Changes in the book business have affected them as it has every retail book outlet, and the industry as a whole. We talked about how, as of this week, Amazon reported that its E Books had outsold books in print. But, we all agreed — we love the feel of books — and bookstores. Phil: “If you’re in a bookstore, and you

want to talk to someone, you can. Or not. That’s always a good feeling. People used to tell us the store was their little cathedral, their safe haven. I used to think that was kind of presumptuous, but now, I realize we don’t have many of those; we’re losing them. And other things — just the social interaction. People getting together, before the Internet. This has always been considered one of the 10 most romantic places to meet someone in Los Angeles; it was safe, it wasn’t just a singles bar. Things change. There’s the possibility that new energy will take it in new directions — positive energy. There’s such a change in the world these days with the Internet and communications...even the New Age isn’t the new age anymore. If you believe like I do, that evolution is on an upward path — it’s hard to see sometimes — but things do progressively get better.” I asked about the social gatherings— the events and book-signings that have contributed so much to the sense of creating community at the Bodhi Tree. Are they going to continue? Stan and Phil: “We hope so. People still need the “soul” of it; the social interaction. Humans are social animals. We can’t do it all online.” Stan said he feels like Phil, “Change is important and it’s inevitable. It would be nice if things went on forever, but they don’t. Certain good things are disappearing, or changing into something else. But, what is out there is also quite exciting and new.” What about the need for community, for places to gather and share ideas with others face to face? The two agree that’s important, but noted that these days cities have become difficult to get around in. Phil: “Thirty years ago it was a lot easier. People used to come every weekend from

40 or 50 miles away; it wasn’t hard and they would come to go book shopping. Nowadays it’s hard for them to come from 5 miles away.” Stan: “The fabric not only of the cities but also of countries and how they interact with each other — has really changed. For example, when a group meditates together, it’s very different then sitting alone; it’s an amplification. People will eventually understand that there’s something about “a shared presence” that’s vital to our consciousness. Without that shared presence, we are not going to evolve properly. Were in a funny, materialistic state right now, but there are people aware of this and making changes. If it doesn’t happen, then I think our civilization will fail. The computer doesn’t seem able to do it. It’s the electromagnetic presence that we share that does it.” Phil: “We have to feel that we are not alone. People need connection that’s more than a face on a screen. We need family — husbands and wives and children — we need the basic structure of the tribe. One of the most gratifying things is that people have come back and say things like, ‘you saved my life.’ Our staff tells this still happens.” After our talk, I took a few moments to walk around the property. The store was crowded; people were coming from everywhere to visit the bookstore one more time. Like the bustling days of the 1980s, the place was full of life and energy. The pictures on the wall — of Gandhi, of the Buddha and Christ, and other well-known spiritual teachers past and present — gazed benevolently down from the walls as I browsed the shelves. There was a special feeling in the sunlit

rooms, and a sense of peace. Tea is still offered, and one can still spend the entire day there, just reading. For the time being, events and book-signings will still take place where teachers and seekers can meet to share information and good vibrations. If you get a chance, roll on down to 8585 Melrose Ave. and say hello to Stan, Phil and the staff of the Bodhi Tree. Grab a cup of tea, and browse the many shelves filled with esoteric and practical magic, and the world’s perennial wisdom. Be sure to visit the giant ficus religiosa in the back parking lot whose wide branches reach out — for the moment — beneath the LA sun. As Phil and Stan are fond of saying, everything changes. But it’s all still here for now.
