I also worked with Swami for several years and when I heard he was seriously ill my heart sank. I considered him a friend. Besides LiveCode, we talked of many things. He was kind and generous, and he loved LC, his life and his mission. HIs smile was contagious and sometimes when he laughed he seemed to almost visibly shine. We first connected when he said he sang to his cow and that she cried when he did it. He said he used to spend hours lying with his head on her neck, singing to her. He sent me a link so I could hear him singing and he had a lovely gentle voice. You have to love someone who sings to cows.

I miss you Swami. I should sing to cows.

Dear LiveCoders,

Many of you here remember Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami (some of you met him as Sannyasin Sivakatirswami many years ago). Swami has always been a champion for LiveCode and together with other other monks in Kaua’i Hindu Monastery built what is probably the largest LiveCode-backed website available on the net. He’s been a constant fixture here on the list for many years and many here been at some time or another worked with him on various projects. I’m sad to say that Brahmanathaswami passed away this week on Hawaii. His life has been full of joy among his beloved monks in a paradise Island full of love and sunshine.

I’ve worked with him there on and off for the best part of maybe 18 years (we’re not exactly sure when I started), he’s been a great friend and together we built many wondrous things with LiveCode. I’ll forever cherish those years, and I hope you all remember him fondly today as well.

Kind regards
Andre
