A crisis in consciousness is what Krishnamurti called it.
Venturing past the village gates
I see megaphones and pedestals
And little compassion
so I return to the place I love
and have not forgotten what it is to smile

People want their immortality.

It is simple.

Step Into Forever

Each of us has it in our grasp, it is a simple point of realization.

A change in perspective. Always.

Oh wow. A Krishnamurti meme. Yay


Yes, the change can be instantaneous
At the core, I am and always will be
There is no beginning or ending of awareness
Only attachment and ego
Clinging to shapes of things.....
I thank you for reminding me

Don't stop

So I make it over another steep hill on the highway and hit morre gridlock -we're at a standstill and I am sitting there looking around. And I turn into a sphere of light; then I look out and everyone in their cars turns into light. Then this thick white light comes piercing through from above and all of the cars and everything turns into white energy light -no form. Through it all I pulled over and fumbled for the radio; turned it on and started to sing. After a moment or a while -I don't know how long....the light zeroed out....and everything came back into form. The songs -almost consecutively were old rock and roll songs that a lot of the villagers play here....I sang, screamed and cried for another 150 miles until I got home. I am now sitting with my cats by the warm fire.

Love

Nora

Mountains, California weather, rock n roll, warm fire and cats

California traffic ... negatory

Cats? Warm? FIRE? R'n'R?

What a treat for me! Just now found this in incredible quality - compared to my age old mono tape of that awesome show...
very young Setzer/Drucker/Phantom, scorching [literally! Speediest ever versions of their songs] thru their set, with a punk attitude.
Too bad i wasn't there.
Here's the full concert, should someone want more...

Hello to all of my fellow Villagers. Weather in NY has been excellent, if you like mild Winters. I prefer no Winter but the NE comes with them. It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature, but asking for things works. For whatever reason the snows are deep and the day is dark within the structure of my ego. Like any night it will pass, it always does.

I love the Sombrero Galaxy.

A dream before awakening of Russian Connections...riding on a train there passing around a format on paper of a project to create together with Indigenous Folks I had just met...English/Russian translations were just happening in the flow of matters, smiles of acknowledgement and understanding passed back and forth...feelings of creating a new haven of new ways "together"
Interesting because I have never had Rusian themed dreams before : )

While reading this I felt that the light you brought down there and spread like sweet jam all over the lucky crowd who were allowed to be in the vicinity will have a massive impact over the entire hemisphere, and eventually the whole planet.
There will be no disaster.

Stay warm by that fire Nora. Love you.

Modwiz I dreamt you were teaching me to swim last night. Then I found myself baking a chocolate cake with chilli. Woke up this morning, opened a magazine and there was a recipe for choc/chilli pudding. Ive never had choc/chilli cake or pudding before.

Lisa, your new avatar reminds me of Nora's old one. I hope neither one of you minds if in future I will get you two mixed up.
Maybe we are all being blended like ingredients in a cake. I think the love excercise had something to do with it.
Last night I was too tired to chop some jalapeno into tiny pieces and blend it properly,
so the last mouthful hit my insides like a bazooka...
I can see now blending is good if one wants the cake to taste like cake.

More blending dreams. Will the new meal be a Russian Borscht, or Mexican Rosca?

I'm committing Carmody's words to memory....

"People want their immortality
It is simple"

I want mine, and I want the Villagers to have theirs, so that we can all meet up in eternity.
And next week I will be with my grandchildren in their Smurf village, and start teaching them about village life.
I could not see any of Cottage Rose's posts, as there were no links provided. My iPad draws a blank.
ViralSpiral, may I ask you to continue with your mushiness just one more day?
Most endearing, I find.

A dark synchronicity, oh the things we made, the things we endured, under the new brand of mechanized, modern warfare, oh the death and destruction that has left it's indelible stamp upon the psyche of this planet.

"I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Now you can taste it in the wind, the war is over
And I listen to the clicking of the train wheels as we cross the border
And they ask me of the time when I was caught behind the line and taken prisoner
They only held me for a day, a lucky break, I say
They turn and listen closer
I'll never know, I'll never know
Why I was taken from the line with all the others
To board a special train and journey deep into the heart of Holy Russia
And it's cold and damp in the transit camp, and the air is still and sullen
And the pale sun of October whispers the snow will soon be coming
And I wonder when I'll be home again and the morning answers Never
And the evening sighs and the steely Russian skies go on forever"

Hmmm, been contemplating that. Not convinced that's what I want, in this here and now, 3D herky-jerky. A light being on a sombrero thread maybe
Need more inquiry into that - without attachment. This instantaneous "simple" is playing hard to get...
