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.

Reflections on Psychedlics from an Elder

Pigs Gettin' Fattened for the Slaughter

Remember what you created...

Remember what you give away when you take something...

Remember where your food and your inspiration comes from....

"He asked, ‘ Do you know how to catch wild pigs?’ The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. ‘You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how To forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity." (blog)

initiated by the sun,

the 4 gates and the angels,

I give birth to Light.

initiated by the moon,

the stars and the earth,

I give birth to Darkness.

I give thanks and praise

and big heart to laugh as I cry,

learning that to live

is always to die

to dying

and the journey of flying freedom

through this dream

as two

as one

as none

but the way,

the way of changing lines

and sacred angles

into the voices of angels

and the colors of stars

in orgasmic silence

what This is

in all eternality
there is a stretching of time
and this is not
nothing but
what you are -
stretching of eternity
through a streaming of consciousness
and blood-flowing DNA strings

Understanding Illness

illness - according to Daimista (in Groisman & Sell) - 1. ‘. . an opportunity for a ‘study’. I wouldn’t say that it is bad; it is a study. Any illness that I experience is a study that I must conduct.’ 2. ‘Illness is a discipline which comes to a person in order to correct a certain thing that is wrong. Thus for me illness is a disequillibrium in a person’s physical body, in his apparatus . . . It begins in another plane, in another more subtle body. We have various bodies. And finally it comes to present itself in the physical body, through a bad thought or a bad feeling had in this time or in another . . many times a person is purging a previous karma.’ 3. ‘To be sick is to resist the changes that your conscience asks of you, for you to change.’ 4. ‘A psychic knot formed during past lives (karma), in the current life thru transgression of the cosmic order, or in the relations between the spiritual world and other human beings. In this sense the knot would be a psychic, mental, or physical record of the transgression.’ – all according to Daimista (in Groisman & Sell) 5. . . when a counter frequency sets in and some body part begins to vibrate out of ease or harmony. - Jonathan Goldman. 6. When we become ill, the ecology of our bodies shifts. Healthy bacteria are depressed in numbers and the bad bacteria flourish. - Stephen Buhner 7) (in Andean Quechua culture) illness is manifested as a shattering of the unity of body and spirit - Alderette 8) is essentially a social disorder 9) ‘what makes us sick is not our relationships per se but our energetic and psychological reactions to these relationships.’ – Barabara Brennan 10) you often become ill by either putting storms in your field, or by refusing to change – Pleiadians 11) I think that we keep solidifying the illness by over-identifying with everything as form, whereas if you can get into a spiritual space and see that everything is energy, and everything is perfection, it allows transmutation to begin, and miracles to happen. – S. Ingerman 12) illness, because it is a way of transformation, requires us to meet it in its entirety. - Deena Metzger 13) Since we have lost many of the ways to spirit, we often must do the hard one, the default choice - the path of illness.

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

Laura Archera Huxley Passes Into

The partner and psychedelic promoter, Laura Huxley has pass into the other fields. She died on the 14th of December in the year of 2007.

Her obituary:

In 1948 Laura met Aldous Huxley and then wife, Maria and a wonderful friendship blossomed. In 1956, a year after Maria’s death, Aldous and Laura were married. During that time Aldous wrote Island and Laura wrote You Are Not The Target, which became national bestsellers and huge successes. The “recipes for living and loving” contained in Laura’s fabulous self-help book ask you to imagine attending your own funeral, visualize your favourite flower, jump in another person’s position, dance naked with music In later years she also wrote Let’s Die Healthy, available online for free.

The Huxleys became prominent representatives of the Psychedelic Movement, always advocating the use of psychedelics in a controlled environment and for personal enrichment and always warning against the dangers of the mindless and indiscriminate use of drugs.

Aldous Huxley died on November 22, 1963. Laura wrote about their life together, and Aldous’s death, in the her touching book This Timeless Moment. A favourite quote of Aldous’ words is: “One never loves enough.”

In 1978 she started OUI (Our Ultimate Investment), later to become COUI – Children: Our Ultimate Investment. This Foundation is dedicated to the best development of the “possible human” from before conception to the first years of life, with particular attention given to unwanted teenage pregnancy.
