Tenzin Lama Sherpa sipped a cup of Chai tea from his native Nepal and explained the history of the herbal drink in connection with meditation.Long ago, a teacher of the practice noticed his students falling asleep as they relaxed so deeply, explained Sherpa, a Tibetan Buddhist monk. The holy man finished the story with a laugh and smile, noting that the tea merely kept the students awake.Sherpa brings positive energy and a love for life with him to his month-long visit to NaMestoy Farm, a retreat and meditation nonprofit center in northwestern Forsyth.He will also perform reiki healing sessions by appointment, a popular offering during his first visit to Forsyth County last June.The healing practice transmits reiki, or “universal life force energy,” to a problem area in the body, said Sherpa, who is in the same lineage as the Dalai Lama.He acts as a channel for the energy, detoxifying the body by taking away negative energy and replacing it with positive.“We are part of the entire universe, so therefore we all have reiki energy … This energy we are receiving and throwing from our body,” Sherpa said. “The more we have peace, the more we absorb that energy.”He finds that peace through meditation, which he enjoys doing on the porch at NaMestoy Farm.
