Whisperswords

But they didn't want to hear my word..... They wanted to hear my whispers as I stumbled lone pilgrim down this path of devotion.

On Rats and Ahimsa

So the other night I woke up to noise coming from down stairs.  I got up, went downstairs and crept through the living room.  I could hear rustling behind some boxes (we are moving) in the dining room.  I grabbed a broom, and went over to the boxes.  The noise stopped.  Using the broom I pushed the boxes to the side when suddenly a rat jumped out and ran right at me.  I hit it with the broom twice, and it ran off to the the side.  Somehow I had ended up in the kitchen defending the rat hole with the broom.  The rat tried to run into the kitchen but I again landed the broom on it.  It flew off to the side and ducked behind the stove.  I pulled the stove away from the wall, but the rat wasn't there.  I looked under the stove, but it wasn't there... Then I heard it.  the rat had crawled up inside the stove.  I pulled the bottom drawer out of the stove and low and behold I could see the rats tail hanging
down.  "Scissors" I though, but luckily I couldn't find any.  I found a kitchen knife though.  With out

McDunalds Chocolate Shake Recipe... (Sort of)

Wow I am really excited to share this elixir I've been making.  It has a texture and consistency that can only be described as like a McDonald's Chocolate shake.  Here is the catch though... It is warm and has no chocolate in it.  It may be one of those things that other people won't fully appreciate, but I am so enamored that I thought I'd break down the recipe.

McDunalds "Chocolate" Shake (for trademark reasons of coarse I had to change the name to Mcdunalds)
 


ingredients:
4 cups warm Tea:
  • Reishi (Ganoderma Lucidum)
  • Birch Tinder Polypore (Fomes Fomentarius)
  • Artists Conch (Ganoderma Apalatum)
  • Chaga (Inonotus Obliqus)
  • False Turkey Tail (Stereum Ostrea),
  • He Shu Wu (Polygonum Multiflorum)
  • Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
1 or 2 bananas (depending on how sweet you want it)
1/2 cup brazil nuts
1 bunch chicory (enough so that the perimeter of the stems together is about the size of a 50 cent piece)
3 tablespoons maca
1 tablespoon chlorella
1 tablespoon kelp
1 teaspoon zeoforce

directions:
I prepare the tea the night before and leave to simmer in a crock pot.  The drink ca be ade with hot tea, although I prefer to let it cool a bit before I blend it up.

In a high power blender combine everything but the chicory and blend.  Stop the blender add the chicory (at this point I find that a tamper is useful) and bring the speed back up on the blender.  Blend until smooth.  I know that it is perfect if it is steaming ever so slightly.


Pour into a glass and enjoy with a glass straw.

The 100 Percent

In the infinite stillness of now, I accept This.

Everything is constantly changing when we overstand the past.  When we consider the future, we can understand that everything and everybody is becoming.  But if we release the past and future, there is only This.  In the infinite now I am.  Unchanging, divinely perfect, I am This.  There is no that.  This is all that there is.  Anything I say about this is mind.  This is where Purusha resides.  This is I am.  To dwell in This is to be immortal, unscathed and complete.  Ferociously Divine, I am all that I experience unseparate.

The Third Eye is about to Crack open.


Drinking the Essence of the Goddess

The infinite can be glimpsed through multiple levels of meaning.   What is in the water you Drink?  Chemically, Electrically, Emotionally, Energetically? 

Moving back to Minneapolis after 2 years in the Mountains of Western North Carolina, one of my biggest concerns is drinking water.  It may sound strange, but Drinking pure wild mountain spring water, free of fluoride, has been a Yogic Initiation.  One reason I can explain, a vein which is comprehensible... is that I finally experiential have understood that water comes from the earth.  While I intellectually knew this, my water still came from a tap through a filter.  Drinking water directly from the earth is something very intimate, you could call it Drinking the Essence of the Goddess if you want to be Poetic.  Less comprehensible perhaps is that drinking wild water is
