About
This blog is under the domain “the infinite living room” because that turn of phrase became a metaphor capturing many things for me and for my friends. It is as much my friends’ spacious and humorous room as it is mine.

Hello Simon,
I believe we have met and we have practiced together in Richmond Hill with Amin (Sensei Ula). I had newly arrived from Afghanistan. Please let me know if I am correct and let’s connect and talk about Sensei Ula and his journey to home.
Thanks,
Assad Sharifi

Hi Assad,
Yes, that was likely on my trip back to Germany, where I was living at the time, when I stopped in Toronto (with my then wife Eva) to see family and visit Amin and other friends. I recall attending one of his practice sessions there in Richmond Hill. I would be happy to connect to talk about Amin and his passing. Please feel free to use my gmail address to correspond (silexvi@gmail.com).
