Physical Basis for Chinese Acupuncture Meridians Found over 40 years ago, Resurface

A Korean researcher discovered a strong candidate for the physical basis for Chinese Meridian Theory and practice. Kim Bonghan of North Korea found practically transparent tubules that run, "inside of blood and lymphatic vessels and they also form networks that overlay internal organs" (acupuncturetoday.com)





Amazing!

How wonderful to continue the discovery of the rich and abundantly awesome beauty and elegance of our human bodies!

"Bonghan channels are also being compared to fiber-optic channels in the body. These channels may be able to carry an extremely high density of information far beyond the limited, one-way signals of the nervous system or the diffusive information carried by hormones in the blood stream. A 2004 paper describes how biophotons, produced by animal tissues, may be emitted by DNA molecules to produce a laser-like coherent light capable of carrying an enormous volume of information through the Bonghan channels. The idea that acupuncture channels conduct light has already been substantiated by Russian research published as early as 1991. They found that the light-conducting ability of the human body exists only along the meridians, and can enter and exit only along the acupuncture points. This finding has been confirmed by a 1992 study in the Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine and a 2005 study in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine where moxibustion and infrared thermography were used to trace meridian pathways."

The implications of this discovery and further research brings us ever deeper into a new paradigm of self-understanding. We are capable of so much more than we ever conceived and it is our blessed gift and opportunity to remain open to the possibility that we are rich with the mystery of the Universe. This is a truly significant discovery for a more accurate understanding of all medicine and alternative healing methods.

In the Circle We Are Free

Soup of Life

Miso Soup

Simple and sumptuous

Simmering in a pot

whatever we have

is whatever we've got

so we bless it and cut it

and stick in the pot!

boil it and boil it

till it's boiling hot!

Soup is so simple

and yet

it's not

we might eat it every day

for years and years

because thats what it is

and it's what we've got

More Than Inside

From within
and to beyond
the song sings
her faces before me


interlaces liquid-states of mind
we find one another
in harmonious nests
of moment to moment;

only occasionally a few fall out



how we are is where we are
and when we go
we know to be and free ourselves from nothing more
than where we wander to


nothing to hold
but holding
and histories
haunting harmonic
patterns that form
my nervous systems

tyrannical mind flogging of supernatural study!

San Jiao channel of the Hand Shaoyang!

Beyond time and space I belong to the future and the past
and cast spells of time-wave in all directions
from now
until now
and for now
like walking in a forest of visions and vacant mind-spaces
to find circular havens for heavenly rising and earthly opening

it is me!
it is you!
what to be and how to do
but free to see and sore on through

ALOHA

The Blessed Gift of Water

Q. Water appears to be an important element this coming year. Can you speak about its properties?

Water is a most interesting element in that it has two transition points fairly close together that transform it into a solid and a gas. These transition points are edges and edges are collectors of power, both dangerous and productive. Water as a solid can tear apart almost anything and water as a gas can be terrifically powerful and dangerously explosive. Both can be greatly beneficial when harnessed for human use. When water is in its fluid form it can wear away almost anything but it will also go around its obstacles finding a way that is effortless and relentless. When one flows with water it is an excellent source of transportation both physically and metaphorically but woe to anyone trying to swim upstream or trying to hold onto something midstream but not moving with it. Water is a medium that when prayed into carries the frequency of prayer to wherever you intend it to go. This includes healing prayers, purification thoughts, and intentions for peace and love.

Water with sun is the alchemy of life and in full flood stage can be the bringer of death. To make the most of water this next year, think of its adaptive qualities, its flexibility when fluid, its ability to go through or around anything to get to its destination, and its ability to carry intent. Think of water as a friend, an ally, and a poderio, something that fills your body and helps you to live. Think of it as a spirit that is an expression of the Source, something deserving the utmost respect and proper treatment like an honored guest. When one approaches water this way they will never have to experience its negative effects nor be a victim of destructive flooding. You will always find fresh water to drink. Be a friend to water and it will always be your friend.

(copied from Shamanic Q&A of Jose and Lena Stevens of the Power Path)

Where the Sidewalk Bends

"... in the blood of man there is a tide, an old sea-current rather, that is somehow akin to the twilight, which brings him rumors of beauty from however far away, as driftwood is found at sea from islands not yet discovered: and this spring-tide of current that visits the blood of man comes from the fabulous quarter of his lineage, from the legendary, the old; it takes him out to the woodlands, out to the hills; he listens to ancient song."

- Lord Dunsany

from the beyond the beyond

just made a perfume and drank some roots

inhaling more
and seeing through
the semi-permeable membranes
of thought geometry

i am a mere human
with a clear soul
just tasting the days
and wasting the nights
on tired songs
or cold tea

there is no more than popping
and floating
of the sleep sounds
