An Interesting Reading of my Aura

I was fortunate enough to come across an interesting individual who is capable of seeing the auras of other people. She found mine, in particular, to be a bit unusual for a variety of reasons.

The basic colors of the aura were: blue on the right side (which indicates introversion and a tenancy towards living in a sort of fantasy world of your own construction), yellow on the left side (which indicates a capacity for analytical thinking). Outside of the blue and yellow aura layer is a layer of aqua, which indicates magic worker.

When she was studying the outer aqua layer, she began to see past lives as a magician, alchemist, etc. One in particular was in Germany in 800 AD. She also said that I have a tenancy to be celibate, “as a means of staying in my own head.”

One of the first things she noted as out of the ordinary, was the white band of energy on the surface of the skin. The white band itself is not unusual in and of itself, but the thickness of it usually is 1/2 inch, whereas in my case this band was 5 inches thick. She believes that this is because there is a large amount of energy flowing through this mind/body/spirit complex.

Another unusual aspect that she noted was the solid line dividing the left and right halves of the aura. She said that she is accustomed to seeing a mixing of the two colors, and rarely has seen a solid line dividing them. Also included in the list of irregularities was a white V coming up from the crown of the head as well as a white “protective” shell surrounding the entire aura.

Interestingly, she also noted that I have had many lives on other planets, as higher vibrationally resonant beings, such as “blobs of energy” and whatnot. The purpose of this, she said, was to go to other realms to learn something and then return to earth to apply the lessons learned. So this would mean that the Earth is a sort of sandbox where beings can incarnate in order to test their selves in difficult circumstances, as the Earth inhabits a region of very low vibrational frequency.

Turning Garbage Into Flowers

Tonight’s Tai Chi Epiphany

I decided to break a long spell of misplaced intention tonight. As the season changes to winter, so too will the winter occur in the mind that you see expressed on these pages.

Winter is the time for the old ways to come to an end, so that we may remake our selves anew during subsequent cycles. It is quite often necessary for a winter to happen in our minds; this is natural, this is healthy, without it we become lost and a decaying spiral of stagnation ensues. With the changes, we may become more mindful of the world around us.

As we become more mindful of the world around us, we become aware of the actions that we are to take. When we set out on the path of mindfulness, the world takes on a completely different appearance; we begin to see that the enlightenment is actually right here, in this very moment.

Tonight, a wonderful series of interpersonal connections lead me, quite surrepititiously, to see the importance of physical self-improvement. I had a conversation about Tai Chi with my friend, we then watched the video of a Chinese Acupuncturist, who is capable of cultivating his Chi so well that he can project it, from his hands, into the bodies of other people. The video of this man is a testament to the vast powers that our bodies posses; powers which go far beyond the concepts of reality promoted by our societies today. Read the rest of this entry »

Don’t be Afraid, You Have Nothing to fwa-wa-wa-wa…

I dug up an old video, with music by a band called Shpongle. I’m so glad to have found this again. I remember listening to it several years ago, when I was first exploring the unconventional aspects of reality. Just watch and you will see why it is so powerful and trans-formative.

Music can do amazing things when the performers are this talented.

I’ve got no memory of anything at all…

Someone asked what I think the song “I don’t remember” by Peter Gabriel means, so I took some time to really think the song over, to see what it may mean. Read the rest of this entry »

Ayahuasca and The Dark Prince Archetype

Tori Amos is an artist who has, for many years, resonated very deeply with me on many levels. Ever since I found that there’s much more to her music than most of the other musicians, I’ve managed to learn a great deal from her work. Indeed, I discovered that many of our definitive experiences are strikingly simmilar and we share many of the same feelings towards certain aspects of life.

Today’s article isn’t about me or Tori, however; it is about the things that we are passionate about discovering in ourselves and those around us. It is about the exploration of the deepest darkest parts of the psyche that seldom see the light of day. It is about feeding our spirit the pure, raw, milk and honey that it has been craving, but never knew to ask for.

Excerpted from Piece by Piece by Tori Amos

During [Boys for] Pele I really started to explore the Dark Prince archetype. It’s one that a lot of men have been able to explore, from Jim Morrison on down to Trent Reznor, and I felt it was calling me. With my religious upbringing I felt I really needed to discover that. It was different from the Magdalene essence. I’d been studying her for a long time, and she was a muse. But I needed to access the Dark Prince in myself, instead of pulling in men who had access to it. But that was yet to come.

I was courting demon lovers at the time, but I didn’t know who the real Demon Lover was. I knew I needed to initiate myself. So I went to Hawaii by myself and began that quest. I worked with a woman, a shaman, who was reputed to know how to take you on a spiritual journey by uncovering things you were avoiding in your view of yourself. While I was in Hawaii, locals were talking about the goddess Pele in a way that I had heard of, but so distantly; it wasn’t something that was in my framework like the greek goddesses or the Norse or the Celts. Eventually I began to see, not a malevolence, but–through Pele, Kali, and Sekhmet, a few of the dark goddesses–I was really beginning to discover anger. I didn’t know how to contain it yet.

Opening to the Greater Reality

No man is an island, entire of itself
every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main
if a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were,
as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were
any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind
and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls
it tolls for thee. ~ John Donne

Our Collective Body

The great sage, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (founder of the Hari Krishna movement), once said “there is no love but self-love.” He certainly doesn’t mean “self-love” as the popular, ego-centered existence, would have you create. It is an entirely different notion of the “self,” one that regards all sentient beings as part of one’s self-hood.

Like many of the great thinkers throughout history, Srila Prabhupada realized that we are all intimately joined with a great body of energy that forms the basis all beings in the myriad of dimensions that make up our existence.

Indeed the thoughts that comprise the very fiber of our being are made of energy, not atoms and molecules. Still today, however, the scientists are mystified by the psychic world, as they have not yet devised a method by which psychic forces can be measured and understood with material instruments.

Sail the Spiral of our Divinity and Still be a Human

Brothers and Sisters,

Many of you are starting to better realize the true nature of our world. Many of you are able to see the great pervasiveness of our world’s corruption and you are coming to terms with this reality. I sense a great amount of fear in the air, however; it is the same kind of fear that I dealt with when I was first learning of these things.

There is nothing to fear, though, as things haven’t really changed; our understanding of them has changed, and that is a wonderful development because we are now much closer to healing. Ignoring the problem has allowed the problems to multiply to the extent which we simply can no longer ignore them, so we cannot go on ignoring them. Read the rest of this entry »

On the Impermanence of All Things

Recently I’ve been thinking on what needs to be done to prepare for the future.  With all of the disasters that seem to be right around the corner, preparation for these things is a daunting task.  It seems like we are about to witness some great changes worldwide as the snowballing economic, socio-political and spiritual problems are about to slap us in the face in a way that is more personal than we are accustomed to.

The deeper I think about it, the more I realize what true preparation is and what it is not.  For the last few years, I’d thought of preparation in the “survival” sense, sacrificing many other aspects of my life so that I’d be ready for the big event that was down the pike.

Survivalists will tell you that preparation is storing up supplies of non-perishable foods, weapons, ammunition, etc.  They want to be ready to “tough it out” when all hell breaks loose, but all of the supplies and equipment in the world won’t help you if you lose it, someone steals it or it is destroyed in a catastrophe.

The Taboo Against Liberated Self-hood

In the vast majority of interpersonal interactions, there is an unwritten maxim. One may only express the portion of their self-hood that fits into the generally agreed-upon spectrum of being. Since the spectrum in which most people inhabit is a tiny portion of what actually exists, it is impossible for an individual to express a truly liberated self-hood.

The best one can do to reveal their liberated self-hood, is to partially cloak it behind the veil of personality, giving only brief glimpses from time-to-time. In all but the most liberated exchanges between true thinkers, a true opening-up of the mind is one of the greatest taboos. Perhaps this taboo stems from the fear that many of us have of stepping outside of our comfortable little spectrum of certainty and simplicity.

If we are truly shielding all but an infinitesimal portion of our self-hood from the light of day, then an expose of any significant portion of our actual self will be overwhelming and may even be somewhat blinding to the beholders.

I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve had an exchange with another who seemed to be interested in stepping outside of the limitations, only to find that the intent was not actually genuine.

In order to be truly liberated, however, you cannot let these things discourage you. If you are truly interested in expressing the beauty of an unbridled mind, then you should do so whether or not the others wish it so. To do otherwise would be suicide.  Search deep within and find that which is the self, liberate it from your personality and let it out for all of the world to see.
