The Fire Dragon 
On March 20, 1999 this photo was taken of what those present described as a Fire Dragon dancing with us in the fire. The photo was shot by photographer Gabe Farkas with an Olympus IS-10 35mm camera set at 125th of a second using a built in flash. What you are actually seeing is freeze frame photograph of a whirling energy form which resembles, in an uncanny way, many of the artistic renderings of Fire Dragons.
The Fire Dragon has visited us many times. It first revealed itself to our F.I.R.E. Master J. Maisel in Floral City, Florida when an ABC television crew captured it on video tape while covering one of our Firewalks at Gail Baiman's Universal Remembrance University.

The Fire is always our teacher.
When we learn this lesson and live our lives in harmony with all the elemental
forces and nature, then we find true peace and power within ourselves. And
when anyone finds true peace and power within themselves they have no need to
prove how powerful they are to anyone else. This is a simple, yet profound
truth.
