the Sundays after a Gathering at the Well….everything is always So Clear, so clearly clear and then slowly, over days it gets a little lost and i have to find it again….seems to be a process that's recurring . This morning:
i drew this a few days ago. didn't have any idea why, what exactly i was drawing? but i remembered Shambhala.
"the inherent wisdom, compassion, and courage of all beings and even in our human society~our fundamental nature" even Google knows
Late last night, the phone with Kay, Kay Gould Caskey, me lamenting how all my life i'd thought there were so many possible Ways to uhhh, "believe" in, true Ways, knowing they were all really the Same, feeling like i could choose which Path to "learn Into", but that now, with how things are, how things seem to be going, how things are "turning out" in the world….the seeming rise in the thirst for war, the rise in the thirst for division and hate in the "political, sociological" landscape in this country….i feel like all those rugs have been pulled from beneath my feet… BUT …..somehow…..there remains some insistent belief that somehow….there IS A truth, that it IS offered from ……The Unknowable Brilliant Mind of The Universe….it remains…it remains
and as i am saying these things to her there came this, somewhere from nowhere, like a direct transmission: "It is important that you remain steadfast to Me" The Universe said. and I said….wait, wait, i need to write that down and i did
and in first light of This day, i looked to my left and there it was…this drawing….and i thought… it's the ticket. my ticket ! and i remembered Gelek Rinpoche of Jewel Heart Temple, Ann Arbor Michigan , the 70's? early 80's? saying:
"Practice like your hair's on fire."
and so.
i come away from this time at the Well
The Universe said: "it is important that you remain steadfast to Me" and
All the Teachings say, in their own way,
Practice like your hair's on fire
Ok. i am ready.
