Burning Man Arises in the Hearts of HUMANs

Tea Party

I wish to detail the plans for a truly epic tea party;

Of course, this tea party requires the perfect location, i.e. space-time and while I sit and explore the views, I can imagine success on a secluded beach, in an old opium den, in an attic, in a large Bedouin tent, on a stone slab projecting out over a glacier-lined lake...



















In any case, the tea party would have all the right guests in all their best clothes. we would sip three teas - a Chinese tea, a flavored tea, and an herbal drink, all spiked with the drops of liquid sunshine and spilling over with potent qi.

tiny cups
tiny sips
of life
that burn away the edges
and make light
of the dream
as it has become too real
for even laughter
and for really
all there is,
is laughter

you are free, so
smile into the sun
and know that it is done
without even sipping the tea

Albert Hoffman Releases Himself

Albert Hoffman has died.
Bless him and his discovery.
Bless the medicine and the mind.
Bless us all, that we may awaken to the beauty and love and joyous cooperation that ALL IS.

ALOHA

I too am not a bit tamed — I too am
untranslatable;
I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the
world.

The last scud of day holds back for me;
It flings my likeness after the rest, and true
as any, on the shadow’d wilds;
It coaxes me to the vapor and the dusk.

I depart as air—I shake my white locks at the
runaway sun;
I effuse my flesh in eddies, and drift it in
lacy jags.

I bequeath myself to the dirt, to grow from the
grass I love;
If you want me again, look for me under your
boot-soles.

You will hardly know who I am, or what I mean;
But I shall be good health to you nevertheless,
And filter and fiber your blood.

Failing to fetch me at first, keep encouraged;

Missing me one place, search another;
I stop somewhere, waiting for you.

Everything In it's Right Place

"They are virtuous who close their senses, put away their apsirations and intentions, cast off their intellectual brilliance, and return to a vastness where there is no conscious knowing, meander beyond the dust and dirt, roam in the realm where there is nothing of concern, drink in darkness and spew out light, and harmonize with all beings and all things." (Further Teachings of Lao Tzu, Cleary, p.23)










"Kun is the power of Earth/Space. It is the Primordial Yin that returns each autumn (harvest/nourishment) and flourishes in the dark of winter (stillness). It is a solitary mare roaming in the wilderness (freedom) and then bridled and ornamented to be given as a sacrificial offering (submission). It is also the natural confluence of six rivers. It is associated with the way Nature supports, defines, and nourishes all things without ostentatious gesture. It is the constancy of our primordial mother." (Zhou I - Liu Ming's version, p19)

"The power of Primordial Yin (Great Mother spirit) cannot be grasped, it is like cosmic soup." (Zhou I - Liu Ming's version, p18)

Earth Mother generates an abundance out of the natural goodness and joy of being. There is never a need for lack or deficiency - all deficiency is a miscalculation and presumption of disconnect from the eternal source - supply. Let us simply celebrate the abundance in joy, gratitude and generosity!








"Feng is the prosperity and abundance of a kind that is hard to imagine and even harder to aquire and maintain. when abundance like this occurs we can not pretend that it is the outcome of our personal talents or effort. Feng is, in that sense, mysterious; but we cannot stand still (mourn) in awe. Instead, we should celebrate with a truly open heart (king makes offerings) and be generous (sun at midday).

It expresses the mysterious and fertile generosity of nature. The mention of astronomical and astrological influences in several lines indicates that success is a matter of fate - synchronicity with the cycles of time. Do not waste time feeling unworthy or claim the success if your. Honor all co-factors and reward all co-workers. Celebration and generosity express abundance." (Zhou I - Liu Ming's version, p125)


Entering into a time and space of naturalness and flow (the Way of Earth and the Great Mother of ALL THAT IS), we discover ourselves surrounded by and endless and unimaginable abundance - CELEBRATE IT!

Celebrate it in gratitude and by sharing it (throwing a party) and in acknowledging the unity of all things the flow is furthered and is allowed to live on and through us all.

Entering a space of naturalness, we discover the natural abundance that we are, that ALL is.

Awaken Yourself and Join Light

Buddha - Scorpio Moon [doubled]

This is shared by a friend; I am totally in and invite you to join:

You are invited to join in a magical ritual.....

The last time this happened, the Egyptians were
building the pyramids......

Now it is our turn....

This next month, starting tonight, is astrologically
EXTREMELY special, as the full moon will appear twice
in a row in Scorpio, an event that happens about once
every few thousand years, and even rarer in this
sign.

In some traditions, this moon is called the Buddha
Moon, and we get to experience it twice!

Once in April, once in May.

In honor of the Earth's enlightenment.......

First, the astronomy part:

Every month, the full moon comes along and sits in the
zodiac sign that is opposite where the sun is. So if
the sun is in Taurus, like it is now, the moon is in
Scorpio. If the sun were in Cancer, the moon would be
in Capricorn, etc.

So every month, the sun changes zodiac signs, and the
moon goes along with it.

But not this month. This lunar cycle takes place in
Scorpio for the next 2 full moons in a row!

WOW!

Ok, but what does that mean?

Well, if you are willing to get a little witchy with
me here, Scorpio is the zodiac sign that stands at
the doorway to the unseen. That is why it is the sign
of magic (and sex too in many traditions), and mystery
traditions.

So essentially, if you want to ride on the
astrological bandwagon, there is an INCREDIBLE window
open for manifestation and transmutation of energy,
since scorpio moves between realms, and can transmute
poison to nectar.

Tonight is the first full moon of the pair, and the
next one is in 28 days.

So I am inviting all my friends (and your friends) to
do a daily candlelight evening meditation to manifest
our dreams, and the kind of planet we want to be
living on globally, locally, and personally. Let's
use this window right!

The commitment, if you are in, is a 10 minute seated
meditation before bed each night. In honor of the
lunar energy, we can sit each night and call upon the
kind of world we want to see for the next 28 days till
the 2nd Scorpio moon.

The idea is:

Use the time to love the Earth and bless her (Isn't it
wonderful Earth Day falls in the midst of this
window?)

And visualize peace in the war torn places, and the
environment recovering. Literally SEE it. Visualize
lots of happy green plants!

And see our government turning around in any way you
feel called.

And also see the kind of joy and love and fulfillment
you would like in your own life.

And take a moment to connect with the amazing Scorpio
full moon, the Buddha full moon of enlightenment.

This is an incredible time to work through any old
patterns that are holding us back personally and
collectively. Remember the hundredth monkey? We can
do it now....

Open to the divine light, in yourself, and in this
glorious moonlight.

Honor the moths, that you might notice are everywhere
right now. The moths are the creatures of intuition
and feminine radiance. Honoring the feminine, we are
nurtured, and loved by the Goddess.

Let's invoke the Goddess together!

Any other rituals you feel inspired to create are so
welcome, and so needed at this time. Make up your
own! Invite friends!

**

Please pass this along to anyone you would like to
invite into the meditation train. The more of us that
participate, the stronger the energy is of what we are
manifesting.

Breathe love in...... Breathe love out.....

Your friend,
Kaia

For Heaven - For Earth - For Eternal Birth

Sweet spring pie!
with an eye and and eye
to see the slowly sailing sun
move without reasons
and filling the sky
for four full seasons
of life around the ring.

mux you
