shaman's thoughts

SALA'M(Peace) children! About 5 am today as I lay awake in my bed the most beautiful feeling of gratitude hit my heart and held me captive for hours. I am so eternally grateful for my life! I live in an old Mobile home that at best can bring 6-to 7 thousand dollars in the home market. It is a good home, sturdy, clean, every thing works and I even have a wood stove which keeps the place romantically warm! The home is in this working class neighborhood, good hard working folks with all that goes with it. They drink their beers, have the usual weekend loudness, but they are HAPPY! Content with their lives, you hear laughter and kids run around on their bikes and off roads, go to school and always say "hi" to me (the old odd medicine-man with his plants). I also know a family(well, many families) in the nicer part of our world (Sedona,AZ.). A mother, a daughter, a somewhat slow witted son and an old aunt who live in this million dollar home! The home is always dimly lit, hard

THERE ARE MANY LINKS IN THIS POST PLEASE FOLLOW THEM, FOR LOVE'S SAKE come back and read part 2 , this one is the longest post for understanding! First thank you Guy Finley for being a blessed wordsmith! If I-mage is your crafted/gifted word then let me spread the word. DO READ PART-2 PLEASE! My beloved children; There is a part of you that feeds on anxiety, depression, low self esteem, negativity ! And its meals of choice are fear, anger, hate, greed, and doubt(even in the face of positive proof!). No matter how you try to reason with this I-MAGE (that is what we'll call that part of you, OK?) it cannot and will not on and of its own accord stop looking for those things I mentioned above. Look my love, that is what it feeds on! If it cannot find anything in the here time of your head, it will go deeper into the back windmills of your mind, your old fears and concerns (what is it for you? The one thing, the one thought you just can't shake loose for all your life, is

We must learn my good children to be, act as if, pretend if needed that which, we wish to produce and see. Every occasion is a possible pool of how to be that which we aspire to. May this day find you all looking in the mirror of GRACE and PEACE even as you are faced with pity matters around you or having a pain of life with its fang at the ready to dig even deeper. Remember my love, where there is only GOD, all is purposeful and perfect as it appears (though it never is as it appears). Namaste' (I bow to the place within you that is GOD). ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY

THE HOUSE OF THE FRIEND It was predawn Or somewhere in between the two lights The rider on destiny’s horse asked “Where is the house of the friend?” Skies paused a moment; As the passerby answered thusly Whilst giving the spark of light upon his lips to the darkness. Pointing to the source of the white light dawning He said; “Just before you reach that tree Look for a narrow garden way greener than God’s dreams Where love is the color of the feathers upon the bird of truth and sincerity. Go further yet to the end of that garden walk It comes out on the other side of maturity. Turn then to the flower of loneliness just ahead. Two steps before you reach that flower There with its majesty is the fountain of the wisdom of all ages. A clear and colorless fear overtakes you then And in the innocent grace of that moment in space You will hear a crackling sound Turn and you will see a child Who has climbed the highest pine tree there To rea

How do we know about our progress in spiritual matters? How do we know about keeping peaceful disposition unless we are tested by circumstances? Indeed my children, we must accept all occasions of our lives as dear guests in our homes who have much to teach us about "who we are"! A frustrating situation at work, an issue with my landlord, a loud neighbor, the policeman who just stopped me and seems to have a bad day, my children not respecting my wishes, my government's lack of common sense, the drunks and the child molesters~~~~~~ These are all occasions where we are tested and given chances to display a harmonious peaceful front that says "God bless this occasion, let there be a peaceful way to work through this for all concerned" No ego trips or offense taking attitude will result in higher spiritual growth or harmony on our precious planet Earth, nor do solutions come that way! Learn then my children as I am, to welcome occasions of joy and sorrow, hardship

I am working with a colleague, a brilliant mind who is going through some issues of her own even as she is helping others deal with theirs. Our main subject; "what is addiction?" So I decided to make my point here to share with all you wonderful children of our addictive ways. Let us first and foremost agree on the definition. "ADDICTION IS THAT WHICH YOU CANNOT SEEMINGLY DO WITHOUT OR THINK IT HARD TO LET GO OF" To that end my love as we understand our brains better we see that for nearly every thought/emotion there is a corresponding PEPTIDE created by the brain which then goes into the blood stream same as any external substance we may take/ingest/inhale/inject. Pay attention now my beautiful ones, If I have to have my dose of the bad news about the world daily(news junkies) as an intelligent human I need to know what it is that I "have to have" about receiving the news that makes me say "oh it'll be hard to not do this"? What peptide(

I had a dream, a vision maybe of how to put words onto pages of history. The hands of the beloved at work, where does the man begin where God is not? Simmering stews of all manners of wholesome ingredients given to me to add the seasoning and to deliver the final healing food to the masses~~~~~~~~~ My daughter too, had a dream of my humble mobile home having become a home with a corridor that had no end and as she walked the corridor she saw all manners of animals, birds, ferrets(new born ones!) all being cared for in their individual room like cages that had only curtains for doors . The Healing Center where all were serene and healing. "The living room was a big fish tank dad!" She said, and there were fish in it with us! We have mastered "matter" in human form, this most seemingly ordinary fact just brought to me the realization of a life time. If I were GOD, seeing my creation mastering matter and form (and to some degree energies), how would I declare that whic

The beloved is as close as the skin which covers your flesh! Yet why is it my children that we look for PEACE out side our selves? You should not have to pay an arm and a leg to hear God's words or learn about enlightenment. You will not find it in better jobs, more money, prestige, bigger home, longer titles, or, or, or, or...by blaming others for your lack of serenity and peace. Listen my precious ones, where there is only GOD the rest is illusive details; If you know somewhere deep inside you that there is a higher power, then know this clearly my love "YOU NEED ONLY SIT QUIETLY LONG ENOUGH TO FEEL THE LOVE AND PEACE" Even if you do not know how to sit quietly, sit and yell at the face of creation, talk to this higher power and demand your serenity! You see my children, what matters most is that you take the time and sit with the SOURCE OF ALL LIFE KNOWING THAT YOU CAN MAKE A CONNECTION(you'll quiet down soon enough)! Then watch the mystery unfold... ONLY GOD ALWAY

I hold an image of peaceful living in my mind's eye. I practice the ways of those who did so before me. I write about it, I print out the words of my peaceful intentions and hang them around my home. VOILA! I am a peacful man to all who know me. May this be the journey for every single one of you my wonderful children. Let this living example of a man you know be a guiding light to help you achieve the same in your own lives. Because I guarantee this my love, that, whatever you think about the most, you'll bring about the most of. WHAT DO YOU WANT? Give the universe the order, and worry not about the how. Just keep the dream and the image constant, let no other thought to the contrary sway your attention and intentions. YOU ARE A PIECE OF THE CREATIVE DIVINE, WHY NOT HAVE ABUNDANT FULFILLMENT? Let that creative divine power show all possibilities to you. As you believe and sow, so shall you reap and grow! This power made you and all the universe, and it says

The conversation was on God and Heaven and Hell(energies moving). We had started from a mutual place, a quote from the Bible (Had ye faith the size of a mustard seed, ye could move mountains). We were working on a detailed computer imaging software gone haywire. Now imagine my absolute delight when my friend says "do you believe in heaven and hell?" "oh..don't get me started on this" I said. 4 hours later, here we are..... If and where there is only ONE SOURCE OF ALL THINGS, if dark and light are the two sides of ONE IMAGE, then how can we not see that separating the two as if one came from an elsewhere in ANOTHER SOURCE is the main reason we have the warped notions of heaven and hell, and human sufferings? WHERE THERE IS ONLY GOD, WHERE IS THIS PLACE? WHERE IT IS ALL GOD , WHAT IS THIS AND THAT? GOOD AND EVIL? SIN? The very notion of a sin, heaven, and hell has only been around for about 2-4 thousand years, how did we lose all we knew for nearly 3000

A book is being written accompanied by a lotion for ages 44 and over which, will come out when it is due(I am pushing the limits here, never assuming). It will guide beautiful men and women over 44(you) to let go of what hinders the experience of life when most of the moisture has gone out of the skin and the courage to be bold is hard to come by. It will ease the transition from scared to love again, to why not now, if not now when? Exploring through experiments all we need to be whole again and find elasticity~~~~~Forget the sex, feel first! The lotion is already made(totally organic Aloe/Rose,made by this humbled shaman; Took him 11 years to perfect it.) and tested by many 44's and over(most 55 and over), clearly waiting for its mate the book to come out so that the sharing may begin internationally. The book however, can only manifest once the mates have joined forces. A how to be in love again manual~~~~ May this day find all of you over 44, in a blissful way, not accepting th

Dance, as though no one is watching, Love, as though you've never been hurt before, LET THE PAST GO! Sing, as though no one can hear you, Work, as though you don't need the money, Live, as though heaven is on earth. ~Rumi~ ONLY GOD ALWAYS GOD ALL GOD ALONE GOD ONLY
