"just because you feel it, dosen't mean it's there" - thom yorke in "there, there"

"those who look outside are dreaming, those who look inside awakens" - jung


although i'm an ecstatic optimist and not-thus-though-still an utopianist myself, i just keep feeling the need to repeat the obvious of how internal dynamics dramatize themselves through ones perceptual pattern-recognitions, and how the overarching narrative, worth, scope, moralé and significance of *IT ALL* can often do a polar-shuffle depending on simply, weather or not you yourself have money in your pocket.

that said, when entertaining the idea that a "global perspective/imaginary observer" type of trip is anything but a disempowering disease of the spirit, there's simply no other way to go, than to say that the best is yet ahead!

fat-cat king-pins of the "actually applied freemarket theory" will still insist that time stands still for no man and that heaven is, indeed, a place on earth. (most likely thinking about their new-hampshire summer homes :rolleyes: )

the beginning is near
the beginning is here!
from my point of view
the beginning was the year
of 2000 you’ll see,
when you look back to a time
when we all sailed away
and every thing changed
and changed once again
and continued to change
from beginning to end
and beginning end beginning
end beginning and again
and once and for all
end for each, slightly different
according to your idea
of the biggest surprise

lately I wonder
perhaps its these planets
for whom a year
is a day in disguise

The beginning is birth. Birth hurts. There is no way around that. We
have to break open from the inside out. Like the life coming out of an
egg or seed pod. It is no different than that. Everything in our world
now is in that husk which is splitting wide open. Think really basic
archetypes here: That will help. Breaking open the head is only the
first peek, the initial crack.

So, we must hold our focus thru this self-immolation and into the
new state of being even though we cannot know comprehensively
nor in detail what that being will be like, nor the world it inhabits. We
can only project full will into and thru this process. It is going to get
very 'hot' for many here very soon. And long before 2012. We need
to find our saddle and hold on for dear life. We can do this!

The birth of polytheism. [I was going to write polyamory, but the word
is off in some way, and there are too many humanistic concerns associated
with the emergence of that practice].

The end of monogamy. Well monogamy wasn't really monogamy anyway.
Whatever it was, it was a crude stepping stone. I was monogamous
for the past 8 years, up until one week ago. In the blink of an eye and
with a dog sitting on my foot, my entire previous 50 years of solidified
personage and sexuality folded in and was pushed thru itself. This
happened over a couple of days, but there was a definite moment when
I was no long what I had been. I now have a polyamoric clan that has
formed instantly - I mean instantly - consisting so far of two males and
five females. This is what immediately formed. I do not know what this
will morph into. It certainly feels like there is no choice in the matter.
Something inside each of us has pushed thru us and pushed us together.
Two of the women and one of the men are tantric oriented; the rest of
us aren't (including myself). One of these women is my 'soul mate', and
she is not the one I am living with.

This is a very powerful configuration that has broken thru the shells of
our old and obsolete hominid paradigm. It is so very different and so
very intense that I can hardly even begin to describe what it is like.
Hell, I do not even know what this 'is'. But one thing is for certain,
Daniel has been on the mark with all of this. It was him and his Q book
that lead me here, out of the other places I'd been, and set the
trap for what I have fallen into. I never never saw this coming. I'd read
his book and laughed at his conclusion about monogamy.

So, there.

I got the word I really wanted!

CONSTELLATION

We are forming constellations. That is it! It fits perfectly.




1.Astronomy. a.any of various groups of stars to which definite names have been given, as Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, Boötes, Cancer, Orion. b.the section of the heavens occupied by such a group. 2.Astrology. a.the grouping or relative position of the stars as supposed to influence events, esp. at a person's birth. b.Obsolete. character as presumed to be determined by the stars. 3.a group or configuration of ideas, feelings, characteristics, objects, etc., that are related in some way: a constellation of qualities that made her particularly suited to the job. 4.any brilliant, outstanding group or assemblage: a constellation of great scientists.





And hence 'constellational' or 'constellatory'.

Here is a thought for everyone.

You know how a planetarium projects the stars upward. What if......
What if what we cognize as stars and constellations are in actuality
a reverse-planetarium. And that we are the stars, and we are projecting
downward onto the 'world'. Wouldn't that be an interesting turn-around.

Constellational!

Okay. I am going to print here a letter I just wrote to
a an intimate of mine, so that perhaps I can convey
just a little bit better what appears to be emerging
here. It'll be a start anyway.



Dearest M,

You know you are connected within the others
to one degree or another, because you are connecting
within me. When you connect within me you get
K and L and E by default. E has since this afternoon
fallen completely into this constellation that is rising
into form. It is completely irrisistable once you go
thru your humanity and then feel the magnetism
which underlays physical reality. What choice is
there then? The attraction is just too great;
it pulls you out of your hominid and into Love.
Resistance is futile. Just have to get close
enough to the edge, and then Infinity will grab you
and pull you up into your next species. The next
species is clearly constellational in nature. There
is still form, as in bodies, but the bodies are kind
of light, slim, tall, and......kind of like that special fx
in the film Predator that the alien used as camo-
flauge.....and very morphogenic. We can alter
our form easily because we are not our forms.

Here is what I discovered with K after my
meltdown, and which cinched for me the nature
of my post-hominid relations. I was brushing my
hair Friday morning a week ago, and my mind
drifted to the thought of K. I went into that
thought, because I was perhaps too relaxed or
too far gone, and found myself inside of karyn. I
went from soul-to-soul to soul-in-soul. I was one
soul in two bodies, brushing two heads of hair.
It was just like when you wake up in a dream -
become lucid - everything snaps into vivid focus,
you are filled with an exhilarating energy, everything
you do is filled with tactile significance. You are
suddenly inside of reality in magnified form. It is
the internal equivalent of doing a minds eye
(stereogram) exercise. It is a very 'of course'
feeling inside of that. Needless to say now is that
my relationship in K became instantly a done deal.

From the inside-out; soul-in-soul. It will strip you
of all your preconceptions about what our relation-
ships are with 'others'. The relations form of them-
selves. The constellation chooses you. And it is
worth it. It has transported me out of what I had
always been, and I can tell you I am very glad to
be out of that guy!

You are - of course - free to come and go as you
please. You are pulled in some way and I am glad
to have you in our neck of the woods - anytime.

E and I went down to a beach on an Island here
that happens to be one of the largest munitions
reservations in the world, and did a 'burning of the
past' ritual. Made up on the spot as all of these
things are with us. [All the nudie shots went in there;]
We released the hominid and embraced the
constellational. It was gray and forbidding there
today. The beach looked like carnage. The water
was still. Near the end of the burning however,
I suddenly noticed that waves were crashing at my
toes...small insistent tidal waves were rolling in
quickly. I looked out into the sound....not a boat in
sight.

Isaiah,

You had addressed those to Cap. You want me to read those? Okay. Gee,
I don't have a bible. This should be interesting.....

JOHN
14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

15:26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me.

16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

MATTHEW
24:26 So, if they say to you, ‘Look, he is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look, he is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.

Yes. It comes around our frontal consciousness, sneaks into the heart
and comes out from there. I have had many years of painful misadventures
with this incorporation. This Autumn takes the cake. But it was much less
life-threatening than other times at least. Thanks for the pointers, and as
you know I can only say so much right now.

anyone who takes this 'seriously' remaining in any large city.]

Isaiah,

In case you were also asking me what 'become passersby' meant to me,
here it is. It is the only scripture in the entire bible that means anything
- really - to me personally. It means that we are all gods - not humans -
and that we are moving through bodies and through worlds. That is what
gods do. It is a mobility of consciousness. And it comes from the inside-
out. That quote is a reminder of that and of our purpose - to move thru
life and world. Not to take up residence. It is a gypsy rogue planet
approach. Boy, that last sentence really stunk. Maybe Agent Smith is
right!

no no, i'm here in copenhagen, all buzz-bothered by the latest outpouring from our famous cartoon industry: this time it was the youthgroup fraction of our rightest-wing political party 'danish folksparty' (dig that vibe!) who got taped at some weekend-camp, having a drunken drawing contest as to who could come up with the most offensive rendering of muhammed (bless him!) showing the usual poetic fantasy of this particular righteous and rigorously non-hypocritical part of our modern youth, sporting pictures of a camelized drinking and pissing, and otherwise nuke-bombing prophet. and then one of the coordinating members said, as he was awarding the winner, that "the losers should be dressed in burka's, since that is a fitting attire for losers". bless all those truly truly courageous freedom fighting, enlightened entrepreneurs of the free and elated mindscape!

did you hear about this over at your 'at's'?

and my bible is all danish, and although those passages are more or less identical, i can't but help noticing that slight difference there is between 'the helper' as it says in your english one, and what in my version directly translates as 'the spokesperson'. well, it's not that much of a difference...

Lord Cap,
Just read small article in today's paper-Monday-about the bs over there.
Personally I don't think I would want to either bow down to or make anger a "mad" man.
The headlines here are all about how our prisons are full.
Oklahoma has always been sort of a enigma.You know they moved almost a hundred different tribes here and now then the powers that be have built several new prisons to hold people-for a small fee-from other states.So now we are seeing the local economy of several small communities depend upon people being put in prison.
The thing that stands out in my mind is how after the white man lays down the rules and the Indians beat them at it.
NYK mentions something about not staying in "the big apple" if you don't have to and I think that advice is sound.
Really though,the thing you have to fear is the anarchy that you find yourself surrounded by in jails and prisons.
Thus it becomes even more important that we moral and ethical and truthful people ruling US.

Thanks for that lovely picture of that man with his girl. I know it's Daniel but it doesn't matter really. Then comes that whale. Heartbreaking, surreal. We are so small. Love is transformative, period.

Yesterday I read the article about how we are driving elephants crazy. Not just them whales too. And is this a revelation? It shouldn't be.

I have a wild cat who is roaming my yard bringing round her kittens chasing my birds away. Three weeks ago I started feeding her. Two days after the first time I left food, she left two chipmunks on my doorstep. Sure she was saying, "thanks" but in addition she was saying," Look, I'm good at my job so good I've got two I can spare for you." She knows it's no contest. I wonder everyday that she passes my windows what else she is here to tell me. I suspect nothing more then "we are sharing space".

We humans are bad at sharing. It could be our undoing.

Tree-

I was the whale and the man in that pic.

Humans are the extremists of nature. The difficulty that they have is
because of how fragmented they have become - extreme objectification.
That is both the uniqueness and the challenge of being human. I do not
think there was any other choice than to push this to the brink.

I'm going to say something that will probably make very little sense, but
here it is. Man is too unselfish. He is empty in the heart. His strengths
and his dreams are diluted - spread out into objective reality and the
matrix of other humans. His attempts at being loving outwardly to others
and the planet come from a vacuous core. He has nothing to give.

What if a human were to subjectify everything in his experience...all
of his feelings and sensations and hopes and loves, even his most import-
ant relationships....such as the other called a wife or husband? What if
the human were to completely internalize everything...to the extent
that all dualities were self-contained? Such a being would contain the
condensation of everything in this 'world', and in a form that is reconciled.
Now, following that, what would come out of such a being....out of its
mouth and hands and mind? The groping emptiness of the former homind?
Or something else? What would that being's relationship to the matrix
be now?

Something to ponder.

10-09-2006, 01:05 PM
nyk, be careful that you don't confuse the mythic image of the global situation with modern man's then-necessary inner nature. man is still free, as he has always been. it is the stripping away of that false sense of identity as it is mirrored down on a personal level from the concluding apperence of the worldwide tragedy, (if you do think that is what it is, which i for instance don't) that will enlighten you rather than escape into disintergrated solipsism, where everything would be great because nobody would be hurt. plus it sounds like a total violation of natural need-to-be's such as a set of dualisms.
all i think is required is a sense of the mutual dependancy of the dualities as they categorize in ourselves, which isn't a very hard task to forefill at all. but as existence and manifestation goes, it's gonna have to work with against's.

Purple robe? Are you craaazy, man? I don't know where come critics in
this board get their imagery from, but I have to say that is just plain
tacky.

You want a better image? Think don Genaro. Think of a child building a
sand castle. Think of the wormhole in DS9. Think of a flower opening
in accerated playback. Think of throwing back a mead and going ahhhhh.
Anything but robes and haloes or whatever.

And your warning is a wee bit late. I stepped over this line seven and
one half years ago. All I'm doing right now is tieing up loose ends. I don't
know about anyone else exactly, but I do know that for myself it had
to be a somewhat reckless dive into the unknown. At the rate I had
been sneaking up on the 'other side' I would have died of old age long
before I got to the door.

Light and Dark. You are talking polarities man. This is inside of light AND
dark. This is digging down into source. It is not marshmellow metaphysics.
It is soul level chi kung (sorry I like the old transliteration).

How can we ever hope to transmute the species - the shift, as some
call it - when we keep operating in the old way, the old relationship
between self and reality, and consciousness and energy. A complete
reversal seems entirely appropriate. Anything less just won't work. It
hasn't worked.

BTW, the purple robe is an allusion to the costume of the Greek tragic hero, originally embodied in the God Dionysus:

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTIONS OF DIONYSOS
"He [Dionysos] appeared on a jutting headland by the shore of the fruitless sea, seeming like a stripling in the first flush of manhood: his rich, dark hair was waving about him, and on his strong shoulders he wore a purple robe." - Homeric Hymn 7 to Dionysus 1

Generally speaking, it's a symbol of power and hubris, the donning of which is typically a precedent to a tragic fall, the fate that awaits all men who fancy themselves to be gods, who can transcend dualities, and their humanness.

TOUCH THE SOUND

Yesterday afternoon I called up my cohort Erka and said I wanted to
do another 'burning'. This is something we used to do a lot of in the
old days....go somewhere, perform an impromptu ritual and burn
something, with the intent of folding in and out - releasing - some
aspect of our existence that we felt was immobile and encumbering.

I have been one of those long-suffering artist/musicians that everyone
knows of. 2006 marked my full return to photography (after seven years)
and music (after thirteen). This has been a very good year for both.
So, I am not complaining. My music, however, feels rudimentary in the
sense that I know I have only barely scraped the surface of something
which is much larger or deeper than my current engagement. And I also
know that to dig deeper - in this as well as in everything - I have to
change something in myself to do so. Often I don't know what that is
right away. Sometimes it is like a letting go and sinking. Sometimes it
is as though I rotate inside of myself. After recent events, however,
I have acquired an extemely tacit and powerful awareness of the
central mechanism for everything I want to be and do.

I have, several times in the past decade, had the urge to just throw
away any and all music references that I had accumulated, and just
be a spontaneous person....if I hear something when I am out and about,
then that is my music experience. Period. Simple. I never stayed with
that very long. But then I also wasn't doing my own music either. I don't
really like all that much music in the world, but what I do like I like a lot.
So, yesterday this whole affair arose again into my consciousness, and
I knew I was ready to leap off another cliff.

We went to the north shore. I brought one significant album with me and
a can of coleman fuel. When we raised pipes to invoke this intent, the
words that came to me were, "releasing the music of the heart". I set
fire to the album and pushed it out to sea on a drift plank.

Leaving there, I said to Erka that I did not feel like going to the big box
(Safeway) tonight, but instead go 'uptown' for fun. Uptown is one and
a half blocks with a theater, market, and not much else. We haven't
been over there much in last few years. This was a rather refreshing
change. We went to the little video shop; there was some Beowolf
film I'd seen the cover of, that I thought I'd check out. I was standing
in the back trying to figure out what's what. There was one other person
there - a lady; sixty-something. I asked her if this was still the 'new
release' section. She said that it is though it's kind of hard to tell what's
going on in it. I'm skimming the mess for awhile, and then I casually ask
if she's seen the Beowolf one while she has been browsing. She replied
that she had just dropped that one off a few minutes before on the way
in. So, I said great and started to turn and leave. The woman then
thrust a dvd at me right then and said, "this one was really excellent".
It was titled TOUCH THE SOUND, and I'd never heard of it (shopping in
Safeway all the time; no surprise). I felt the cover, read a bit of the back,
and decided what the hey and took it. As I am exiting the store Erka
said that was rather fortuitous or something like that after the burning.
And I am like, oh yeah that's right. My mind was on what I was going
to be cooking and had already forgotten that.

TOUCH THE SOUND is amaaaaaazing. Evelyn Glennie is a deaf percussionist
out of Scotland. I am watching this film last night, and my jaw is practically
falling off.

Okay, I am ready to really begin playing now.

So, craazyman, that was just one example of what my life is like now. I
have altered my position within self and world. In my world everyone
is a shaman, and every thing whispers magic. Before the burning I went
to the local bookshop to sell of a bunch of books. I ran into the one
you see below. The title caught my eye right away. The description on
the back was ambiguous to me, so I decided to pick a random chapter
within and read the first sentence or two to feel it out. I opened to page
117 and read this:

"Tzutujil Mayan shamans understand that every individual human being
carries the entire Earth within their skins."

That cinched it for me. That sentence describes exactly my signature
experience and realization that has been unfolding relentlessly the last
eleven days.

For anyone who happens to be reading this thread, and perhaps wants
to understand what I have really been endeavoring to convey in some
163 posts so far, consider the following, if you will.

Get a hold of TOUCH THE SOUND and sit with it. I am actually spacing it
out over 2 nights for prolonged absorption. I would describe this film
as the cinematic/sensory equivalent of taking Joseph Cambell and stripping
away all of the words. What you are left with is a conscious tactile
awareness which stretches all of the way thru ones environment and
experiences....and almost out the otherside. So deep that you are
touching to Void. And there you are also moving in and altering the Void.
As well.

This film will teach you something that is resonate or analogous to nyk's
(and those of my ilk's) expression. This is not for everybody.....but it
might be for some.

Craazyman - my difficulty has been how to best translate my experience
into syntax. It seems like it should be easy, but isn't at all.

Nyk i'm definitely doing to check out that video, at this point I feel as if I am completely alone going through the void myself. The warm, earthy integrity of regular interactions alludes me as I cope with resounding my own spiritual strength with the lack around me. Translating my words to syntax is itself the expression of my truth. I've been thinking about how I can have the tendancy to defer to others what I know to be true in myself...I feel like i'm in line, waiting for everyone to join me so that we may make the final leap together. as a team. however all me immediate feelings right now are of separation, a will to selfstriving that eliminates the possibility of togetherness. you said to me that this is an individualistic revolution, how does it work that people can pursue their pursuits in such vile fashion while not having the decency to be nice to each other? at the same time as i write this, i'm trying to relate the point of honesty with compassion. to be in your truth while opening yourself up to others. my only guess at this point is that the beginning is now, and that now is a descent into chaos and disorder,,,so that anything which remains after the bubbling up of all this repressed rage and human deceit remains one for the ages.

This will be my last post. I am going to have to write a book...afterall.
No choice now. I cannot be lazy or stupid with my syntaxification anymore
either. Yes, Ragnarok has arrived upon the world. It doesn't take a myth-
ologist to see that. But what is Ragnarok, personally? And what is the
world, really? My proposal is that this is all a birth process, literally -
for each of us and all of us, and every speck of everything else in this
sphere. Yes, it is a rough time. But we are in labor. Birth is never easy.
But I cannot do this subject justice in this medium, for a variety of
reasons.

I'll endeavor to deliver a good one (book), one that is tactile rather
than heady. Bookmark the word "veridian".

Well good luck, another would be author sets off for the Promised Land.

For me I am happy to write here. I have feedback from those who spend the time to read, and I have my share of bad reviews and slander.

The best part is no book tours!
