'What we are to our inward vision, and what man appears to be sub specie aeternitatis, can only be expressed by way of myth. Myth is more individual and expresses life more precisely than does science. Science works with concepts of averages which are far too general to do justice to the subjective variety of an individual life.

We are a psychic process which we do not control, or only partly direct. Consequently, we can not have any final judgement about ourselves or our lives. If we had, we would know everything, but at most that is only a pretense. At bottom we never know how it has all come about. The story of a life begins somewhere, at some particular point we happen to remember; and even then it was already highly complex. We do not know how life is going to turn out. Therefore the story has no beginning, and the end can only be vaguely hinted at.

Life has always seemed to me like a plant that lives on its rhizome. Its true life is invisible, hidden in the rhizome. The part that appears above ground lasts only a single summer. Then it withers away - an ephemeral apparition. When we think of the unending growth and decay of life and civilisations, we cannot escape the impression of absolute nullity. Yet i have never lost a sense of something that lives and endures underneath the eternal flux. What we see is the blossom, which passes. The rhizome remains".

-Carl Jung

Drinking wine all alone in my room, i forget how to pray. I hope that the Passionflowers that I keep leaving at the foot of the Sacred Mother are enough to keep us both above ground.

Smokey the Bear Sutra; by Gary Snyder

Once in the Jurassic about 150 million years ago,
the Great Sun Buddha in this corner of the Infinite
Void gave a Discourse to all the assembled elements
and energies: to the standing beings, the walking beings,
the flying beings, and the sitting beings — even grasses,
to the number of thirteen billion, each one born from a
seed, assembled there: a Discourse concerning
Enlightenment on the planet Earth.

“In some future time, there will be a continent called
America. It will have great centers of power called
such as Pyramid Lake, Walden Pond, Mt. Rainier, Big Sur,
Everglades, and so forth; and powerful nerves and channels
such as Columbia River, Mississippi River, and Grand Canyon
The human race in that era will get into troubles all over
its head, and practically wreck everything in spite of
its own strong intelligent Buddha-nature.”

“The twisting strata of the great mountains and the pulsings
of volcanoes are my love burning deep in the earth.
My obstinate compassion is schist and basalt and
granite, to be mountains, to bring down the rain. In that
future American Era I shall enter a new form; to cure
the world of loveless knowledge that seeks with blind hunger:
and mindless rage eating food that will not fill it.”

And he showed himself in his true form of

SMOKEY THE BEAR

• A handsome smokey-colored brown bear standing on his hind legs, showing that he is aroused and
  watchful.
  
• Bearing in his right paw the Shovel that digs to the truth beneath appearances; cuts the roots of useless
  attachments, and flings damp sand on the fires of greed and war;
  
• His left paw in the Mudra of Comradely Display — indicating that all creatures have the full right to live to their limits and that deer, rabbits, chipmunks, snakes, dandelions, and lizards all grow in the realm of the Dharma;
  
• Wearing the blue work overalls symbolic of slaves and laborers, the countless men oppressed by a
  civilization that claims to save but often destroys;
  
• Wearing the broad-brimmed hat of the West, symbolic of the forces that guard the Wilderness, which is the Natural State of the Dharma and the True Path of man on earth: all true paths lead through mountains —
  
• With a halo of smoke and flame behind, the forest fires of the kali-yuga, fires caused by the stupidity of
  those who think things can be gained and lost whereas in truth all is contained vast and free in the Blue Sky and Green Earth of One Mind;
  
• Round-bellied to show his kind nature and that the great earth has food enough for everyone who loves her and trusts her;
  
• Trampling underfoot wasteful freeways and needless suburbs; smashing the worms of capitalism and
  totalitarianism;
  
• Indicating the Task: his followers, becoming free of cars, houses, canned foods, universities, and shoes;
  master the Three Mysteries of their own Body, Speech, and Mind; and fearlessly chop down the rotten
  trees and prune out the sick limbs of this country America and then burn the leftover trash.
  

Wrathful but Calm. Austere but Comic. Smokey the Bear will
Illuminate those who would help him; but for those who would hinder or
slander him,

HE WILL PUT THEM OUT.

Thus his great Mantra:

Namah samanta vajranam chanda maharoshana
Sphataya hum traka ham nam

“I DEDICATE MYSELF TO THE UNIVERSAL DIAMOND
BE THIS RAGING FURY DESTROYED”

And he will protect those who love woods and rivers,
Gods and animals, hobos and madmen, prisoners and sick
people, musicians, playful women, and hopeful children:

And if anyone is threatened by advertising, air pollution, television,
or the police, they should chant SMOKEY THE BEAR’S WAR SPELL:

DROWN THEIR BUTTS
CRUSH THEIR BUTTS
DROWN THEIR BUTTS
CRUSH THEIR BUTTS

And SMOKEY THE BEAR will surely appear to put the enemy out
with his vajra-shovel.
Now those who recite this Sutra and then try to put it in practice will accumulate merit as countless as the sands of Arizona and Nevada.
Will help save the planet Earth from total oil slick.
Will enter the age of harmony of man and nature.
Will win the tender love and caresses of men, women, and beasts.
Will always have ripe blackberries to eat and a sunny spot under a pine tree to sit at.
AND IN THE END WILL WIN HIGHEST PERFECT ENLIGHTENMENT.

thus have we heard.

“Semen dried into the silence of rock and mineral. The words we did not shout, the tears unshed, the curse we swallowed, the phrase we shortened, the love we killed, turned into magnetic iron ore, into tourmaline, into pyrate agate, blood congealed into cinnabar, blood 

calcinated, leadened into galena, oxidized, aluminized, sulphated, calcinated, the mineral glow of dead meteors and exhausted suns in the forest of dead trees and dead desires.”

House of Incest, Anaïs Nin

                          blooming, I’m becoming hazy and disappearing like rotten flowers.

To communicate with Mars, converse with spirits,
To report the behaviour of the sea monster,
Describe the horoscope, haruspicate or scry,
Observe disease in signatures, evoke
Biography from the wrinkles of the palm
And tragedy from fingers; release omens
By sortilege, or tea leaves, riddle the inevitable
With playing cards, fiddle with pentagrams
Or barbituric acids, or dissect.

-T.S. Eliot 'Four Quartets'

“Well, the world’s a swirl of particles, isn’t it? Atoms, molecules temporarily vibrating and dancing to a certain frequency, which we are conditioned to perceive as solid forms, as “reality.” These forms, of course, are really vectors and vortexes of energy, conjurations, “charmed particles,” if you will, temporarily assuming shapes before being dispersed and dematerialized. On that level, certai

nly everything can and will be dematerialized, since the fate of the earth is eventual immolation by the sun, which will one day explode, dispersing everything that exists back to its original elements. The Tibetan Buddhists, the Navajo, the aborigines of Australia and many other cultures have made literal diagrams of this dispersal, which is the fate of all forms. And of course we humans are staring dematerialization in the face all the time, aren’t we? We hover on the edge of it. Life is a ghost-show, after all; we’re frail phantoms fluttering in the winds of time, soon to vanish.”
— Andrew Noren

“Had I not created my whole world, I would certainly have died in other people’s.” — Anaïs Nin

:Penebranca:

“It has been only two generations since artificial light became so widespread that we moved into artificially lighted environments. Now, most of the light we ingest through our skin and eyes is artificial. We are starved from the natural light spectra and we have overdosed on those spectra that come from artificial light; incandescent, fluorescent, mercury, vapor, sodium, television, and many others which are detrimental to our natural development of our eyesight and perception.” — Jerry Mander

Before Heaven and Earth

There was something

nebulous....

Tranquil....effortless

Permeating universally

Never tiring

Revolving Soundless

Fusion without mate

It may be regarded as the mother

of all organic forms

Its name is not known nor its language

But it is called the name TAO

The ancient sages to the best of their ability

inventing a description called it "great"

The great TAO

"Great" means-in harmony

In harmony means-tuned in

Tuned in means....going far

Going far means....return

To the harmony

Thus-there are four greatnesses....

The TAO is great The coil of life is great The body is great And man is also designed in this image to be great

There are in existence four great notes

And man is made to be one thereof

Man places himself in harmony with his body

His body tunes itself to the slow unfolding of life

Life flows in harmony with the TAO

Out here you will know that it

all proceeds at the natural tempo

In tune

“The intermediate manifestation of the divine presence which we call the DNA code has spent the last two billion years making this planet a Garden of Eden. An intricate web has been woven, a delicate fabric of chemical-electrical-seed-tissue-organism-species. A dancing, joyous harmony of energy transaction is rooted in the 12 inches of topsoil which covers the rock/mineral/fire core of this planet.”

—	Timothy Leary

This metabolic cosmos
is fertile with galactronic sexuality
and novas of eye.
So let’s do this jigsaw of sound,
these mischievous jokes,
those space and light conundrums,
these relative paths,
those time-warping vehicles,
these resonant mantras,
those archetypal attractors,
these invisible interfaces,
those spiral dynamics,
these flexible forms,
the enticing chaos,
the implicate order.

Interdimensional devices; levitating, spinning, crawling and sliding.
Linking, dividing, harmonizing and synergizing
qualities, forms, waves and realities.
Trans-technological singularities of temporal matrices,
hyper-functional crystalline mathematic fractal baby gizmos of
light, color and sound,

busy, busy, busy.

“A torrid sun moves stiffly in my head like a magic lantern slide. A fragment of blue sky follows; after a few jolts it becomes motionless. I am all golden within.”

Scientists claim that we are made of stardust, nondescript dust mites, but together saying something spectacular and meaningful.

The stars are in motion. We are all part of a singular piece of poetry, rhyme, rhythm, one secular heartbeat. All combining and mixing, tangoing, playing tic-tac-toe with one another. All pieces of
one uni-verse.

Whether we are made of stardust and the rhythms of spheres or of skins stretched across frames to make drums or of quivering flesh and bones, we are all singing.

The ancient Hindu Scriptures of India tell of the generation of the material universe out of the 'full void,' an emptiness of infinite intelligence that makes everything out of silences and sounds, the fundamental energetic vibrations of divine thought.

3-2-1

Today's date is the countdown to disillusionment
that all your realizations were nothing more than illusions
by way of dilated pupils, energy channels, spirals & ripples
they sprinted out of your mouth as juxtapositions
a myriad of intertwined visions
even from your birth mother
Earth Mother
gave
Birth.

If your limbs begin dissolving
in the waters that you tread
look towards the sun a risin
to keep yourself ahead.
All the surroundings are evolving
in the s p a c e s of your head.

Declarations from the jungle
from the people of the maize
Forgotten actors with no lines
in the wings of the world stage
Their country raped and delegated
to the outskirts of mankind
Refusing to fade into obscurity
Their purpose to remind
And to reclaim a voice
for those forced into silence
Fighting with pride and dignity
against the corruption and the violence
Whilst people with the luxury of debate
just sat around and talked
These fearless ones fight back against
the oppression that has stalked
their people now for centuries,
Funneling wealth to the hands of the rich
A monopoly by the minority
This orgy of theft at fever pitch
Faceless revolutionaries
A black framed sea of eyes
Anonymity fighting celebrity
A safeguard not a disguise
Bringing La Realidad
to a world that lives without
And know that all around the globe
there’s echoes of your shout
I stand in solidarity
with clenched fist in the air
And i’ll battle along side you
against this world that doesn’t care
Countless voices raised as one
will tremble the castle’s walls
Countless hands working as one
will re-build once it falls
Thank you for the beacons light
you shine to all with love
And thank you for the heart you’ve shown
in fighting those above
