sometimes I wake up after smoking ganja and discover a newly formed rock shrine, these are good days.

David Lynch: Transcendental Meditation, Consciousness and Creativity

"He whose happiness is within, whose contentment is within, whose light is all within, that yogi, being one with brahman attains eternal freedom in pure consciousness"

--The Bhagavad Gita--

Below is a link to download David Lynch's Catching the Big Fish on Audio book. He discusses his experience with transcendental meditation which he began in July 1973 at the T.M center in LA.

"It seemed so familiar, but also so new and powerful... it takes you to an ocean of pure consciousness, pure knowingness, but it's familiar, it's you, and right away a sense of happiness emerges, not a goofball happiness, but a thick beauty"

 If you're interested in tapping into your inner artist and further unlocking certain elements of creativity you may be unaware of, then I suggest you download this little piece of golden insight.

(At 101 minutes he starts talking about the perspective of the tortured artist and says despite popular belief,  the torture and pain that many believe to be their bloodline to inspiration, in fact DOES NOT HELP CREATIVITY, ultimate consciousness does)

Chakra basics....

Chakra or energy center is a term used in Pranic healing, an ancient Hindu system of energy healing. “Prana” means life energy. “Aura” is another terminology traced to Pranic healing. Aura is a non-physical body that consists of energy, which exists along with our physical body. 

The aura that covers our body is said to have seven layers pertaining to the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of an individual as manifested by energy. Studying the color and thickness of auras can be an indication on the state of health of individuals. Seven colors are associated with aura and interpreted into seven personalities. These colors are all present in an individual but one or two are more pronounced.

Dimethyltryptamine DMT

]
\'Saturday 7 am.

I’m sitting alone on a skate ramp in the back of the heaven house watching the dew and mist enveloping the green valley below. 

I just smoked DMT.

At first I hit it and Jordan told me to hold it in so I did, and then I hit it again and at that I fell the fuck back…. 

In the beginning I saw all these little rows of shapes outlined in white coming at me against a purplish primarily pink backdrop; triangles, circles, stick like thing’s, too many to process. I fell on the bed,

Amazing weekend..

Sound healing

If we look back into several Eastern schools of spiritual thought, one will find the appearance of sound healing in almost all of them. In my yoga classes we always end and begin with an Om session, it's amazing the ring I feel through my body, the connection and energy it brings to the entire room is so refreshing, as if it rejuvenated us into a state where we can go out into the chaos of the world again clean, able to take on new challenges without being so easily overwhelmed. Below are some interesting sound practices used by the Tao which can be helpful as well.

Lung/Large Intestine - Metal - Autumn - White - Pungent - Sadness to Joy, Courage - Sound is SSSSSSS. . . (tongue behind teeth).

Kidney/Urinary Bladder - Water - Winter - Dark Blue - Salty - Fear to Peace, Gentleness - Sound is WOOOOOO. . . (lips as when blowing out a candle).

Liver/Gall Bladder - Wood - Green - Sour - Anger to Tolerance, Kindness. The Sound is SHHHHHH. . . (tongue near palate).

Heart/Small Intestine - Fire - Red - Bitter - Hate, Impatience to Love, Compassion. The Sound is HAAAAAA. . . (mouth wide open).

Spleen/Pancreas/Stomach - Earth - Harvest time - Yellow - Sweet or Bland - Worry to Fairness, Singing. the Sound is WHOOOOO. . . (from throat, guttural).

Pericardium/Triple Warmer - Fire - All Seasons. The Sound is HEEEEEE. . .
P/TW correspond to the fire element, but the sound is usually done as the sixth, since TW's function is to balance, especially the temperature of the upper, middle and the lower burner of the body.

The Practice.

Lung/LI: Look up and breathe in as you raise the arms and turn the palms upwards. On SSSSSS. . . sound let your arms float slowly back to their original position. Breathe normally.

Kidney/UB: Breathe in as you bend your back and bring your hands to lock around your knees. Your neck straight to avoid unnecessary tension, push the abdominal muscles against the kidneys with a WOOOOO. . sound until the air in your lungs is spent. Breathing normally let the arms float back to rest on your lap.

Liver/GB: Breathe in as you make a large circle with your arms to lock the thumbs above your head and lean slightly to your left. On SHHHHHHH. . sound let the arms float back along the circle back to your lap.

Heart/SI: Breathe in as you make a large circle with your arms to lock the thumbs above your head and lean slightly to your right. On HAAAAAA. . sound let the arms float back along the circle back to your lap.

Spleen/ST: Breathe in as you make a circle with your arms and bring your fingertips under the left ribcage (stomach area). Breathe out on WHOOOOOO. . sound as you press as deep as feels comfortable to you. Breathe normally as you float your arms along the circle back to your lap.

PC/TW: Lean back in your chair keeping the neck straight but relaxed. Or lie on your back. Breathe in as you spread the arms and bring your hands above the head. On HEEEEEEE. . sound glide your hands just above the body to rest on your lap.(This sound, done with movements at bedtime can help you to have a deep sleep).
