Integrity

Ahn-Druid — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 05:56:46 GMT

It's the small things in life thats count. There was a time in my life where integrity was a long lost concept. and the innocence of the child plays and dances with in the fields. Intentions are pure, and life is full. In the past i have been in this place, as i moved through out my life in awe and wonder within the world. My brilliance illuminated those around me. when i was there with you, with you all. knowing you where feeling me feeling you receiving my kindness and joy of being. And in the midst of this great dance, was a forgetfulness,, a subtle rythem in my life. " oh i will be there i say, to take care of your house" "oh i will be there i say, to check in when i'm traveling" "oh i will be there i say, to phone and let you know i love you" "oh i will be back on tuesday, and i wont be late for work" and the majik of life continues, as i frolic in life's gifts and get lost in awe of there moment. and when i come back i say.... "I'm sorry, it was not my intention, i meant to come by and take care of your house like i said i would.... I just had the most incredible time, met these beautiful people and i would not have changed a thing" "I'm sorry, i meant to check in, let you know i was okay.. but you know how traveling is...? dont you?" "I'm sorry, i know i said i would phone.. but i was just too busy.. far to busy" "I'm sorry, please dont take this personally, I really did intend to be back on Tuesday, and to not be late for work i hope you understand" This has been my dance. Beautiful, gracefull, and in the moment. and there is something missing in the midst of my dance. a responsibility for my actions., and in turn hurting other's with out intending to do so. I allways seem to turn to the story, turn to my head and elaborate on my excuses. of why i didn't do these small things that i said i would. one time... i almost burned down one of my most dearest friends house. -WE ARE POWERFUL BEINGS! AND WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY- As of late, i have been noticing these patterns with in my self, and have made the choice to change my life around, to be accountable, and to be in integrity with my actions: what i say and what i do line up. I Now see how great of an impact these small, and subtle actions can have, and how much they can hurt some ones els. for how much they are hurting me.

Manjrushri's Sword

Ahn-Druid — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 19:55:42 GMT

Cut through the bullshit and love god in devotion, as the expression of the moment This dance... the dance that reveals the moment. and you might say.... "what moment do you speaking of? " And i reply "not the vague interpretations muddle by fancy word or glamorous imagination." I mean the raw, straight up truth of now. My ego, of which i hold so dearly to my heart (it seems) dose not like the idea that i could be wrong in each moment. and so it filters my vision, to reveal a image of my fancy............ And so the shaman Waves his feather. And the flame dances so i speak with "spirit".. and i bow and i chant and i let this feeling fill me. in that moment thats all that i am. And so i hold on to this moment soo tightly, i don't release my grip. i don't let this moment escape my memory's, in fear that the next moment might not look as glamorous. and it doesn't. and so again the filter.. continues to filter of what i want to see.. and this is the "i" that i wish to release from. Authenticity in the moment is often not what i would expect of it. And so I step back, i pick up Manjruishri's sword and i cut those strings to the supernatural sugar coated, sage coated, crystal coated, channeled information coated reality i steep my self inn and i cut through the bull shit And love god in devotion, as an expression of this moment.

Burning Man - Thinning of the veils

Ahn-Druid — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 22:23:14 GMT

Journeys Along the path, After just landing back in Vancouver from the dream berry farm studios.. fully inspired to create, and manifest a world of powerful intention, via studio space and consciouses creation of divine archetypes, through leather work passed down through Copper Chris, Eye igniting the flame of spirit Journeying as guided presence. Micheal dear Micheal just happened to be stretching in the park. as i was on my way to finding a ride back to Calgary to pack up and move out of my house. with only a week left.. i could feel the strings of stress slowing getting taught. With in 2 hours of the myth makers bus leaving on the journey to the playa, A sudden impromptu decision of joining the journey Giving my land lady little to no time to accept my offer of staying untill the 15th of the next month.. When finding out later on the playa, some one was to be moving into my space on the first. I suppose i had my priority's straight.. Upon arriving on the Playa with a bus filled with beautiful people of divine grace.. was a semi friendly welcome with hints of crude humor, in preparation for what lye ahead. 10 of the 13 of us were virgins to the burn, including myself.. as you probably assumed from the style of this writing. I ask my self, Is there any way you can over exaggerate of magnitude of this event? as the faeries of the sunshine coast would say.. Epic. All walks of life, gather on the Playa, A terrain that is not forgiving by any means.. The winds, the Playa dust , and the Energy's that pulls and uproot all those hidden issues that need to be secured, It exposes that brilliance and exposes the depth of shadow that one try's to hide. Metaphors teaching us to tie loose ends.. cause if you dont...they get blown into the endless Playa of the life we create, just as some bridges get burnt. We gather to burning man as a testing ground of inner most strength and fear. If we cannot learn to commune together, in the environment of party, prayer, fear, and consciousness that is offered upon the playa, then how can we learn to commune in our every day life, where these sames elements are functioning... The playa is an archetype of infinite possibility. on such a grand scale, up to 45,thousand people gather to explore the creativity and push it to the limits.. at least many upon the 45thousand do.. I felt as though all of the lights, explosions.. and dazzeling creations where destractions, decoys as a challenge to learn how to communicate in new and profound ways, offering opportunity's of the rarest kind with in those moments. The Temple was burning, the temple as an archetype of the sacred within us. Many have expectations. and from my experience at the burn of the temple i found many people where having there expectation shattered as this giant wave of cheering came crashing out of the ethers. Many were offended from the supposed "lack" of prayer displayed during and after the temple burn. Though through my eyes i witnessed something so profound and beautiful. The masses.. thousands of people gathered for this burn, and although it was not presented in silence as it once has.. I felt something just as profound and just as powerful. as i was holding space with sacred tones,, when this giant vortexing wave of sound was spinning around in a clock wise fashion. around the temple... this wave of cheering. 11 or more times creating one of the most powerful vortexes i've personally been involved in. i soon realized with in my toning,... that not every one is at a place in there evolution where they can get down with the "Aum" This cheering was a vibration that every single person at this event could resonate with. and they where cheering in honor of this temple burning. creating a super-luminal vortex of power, and honor. I was then guided to a smaller sacred circle of dear friends, rooting our self in truth. in light and in love. Through out this hole event, up until these last nights of the burn i participated in prayer. prayer in collective settings, and by my self... though i was allways taken aback for all i felt was this pretentious motive behind my actions which i'm sure i was projection up others. a sens of.. i've been there and done that. yet just when i lest expected it... with in this sacred circle after the temple burn, i felt these hands. composed of the most gentle love. that of a dear... rest gracefully, cupping the back of my head.. i resisted at first trying to shake this feeling.. soon to realize this is what i've been looking for. the thinning the the veils.. a true sence of honor, and true sence of prayer with out any pretentious motives. as i surrender to the love this being has to offer, i start to speak, Kodoish, Kodoish, Kodoish, Adonai Elohim Tsebayoth! Holy Holy Holy lord god of hosts. This subtle joy slowly starts to fill my being until the subtleness was an oceance, as we all speak these words in grace and in harmony. Grandmother moon in her full brilliance..the eclipse of the fish, and the gentle stream that allways seems to knock me on my ass. I give thanks for my journey, i give thanks for spirit offering me the time and space for these experiences that help us all remember our essence self. and reminds us to trust.. and i will be in the arms of love, embracing all reflection of this divine life that i've been put here to live. In Honor And Service I love you all. Andreas Photo Posted On Tribe By: Les I

strange karmic paths, with hits of humor.

Ahn-Druid — Sun, 15 Jul 2007 19:16:00 GMT

Well here i was yesterday.. jolly ol beautiful day, i was riding my friends bycikle.. i just got out of the bank. with a booster juice in my hand. I was on the left hand side walk.. and i look onto the road where cars are supposed to be.. and i see this "thing" rolling down the road (this is downtown Calgary) well okay Kensington... i thought it was a hallucination.. but this thing turned its coars and smashed into me and my bike, know my juice all over my body and of course i fell..... this thing hit my foot.. it cut my shoe right up, as well as my foot.. it hammerd and crunched cement into my foot and some bone. (my foot is not broken though) what this thing was??? well it just happened to be a 3.5 foot in diameter diamond edged concrete saw blade that was 140pounds rooling down the street the exact second i happened to be there this blade fell off a construction company's truck as they turned the corner a few yards up the road.. So from an odd set of karmic patterns i'm out of commission sitting at home, healing my foot Any Way.. take it as you will hahaha.. SLOW DOWN.. the universe says

Lets talk about OM

Ahn-Druid — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 01:35:27 GMT

This was my little walk home from work Sooo back to the basics. ...... So OM They say that if we were to take every sound (Vibration) with in this reality/ existence, the vibration of which we would here would be OM The heart beat of the one.. the Sacred Om or Aum Soo Now lets take a look at our nervous system: In One moment our nervous system is being triggered by thousands if not millions of subtle and not so subtle sensations. (i'm including Metaphysical sensations) These experiences can range from a slight tickle coming from seemingly no-where under the arc of your foot..to your ears becoming frozen from cold weather... Now We seem to be "unconsciously selective" to what we bring to our attention.. Out of a HUGE number of sensation we only focus on a select few.. We then take these few select sensations and do that following: we label them and put into a nice little box With This way we think we are in "control" and thus give's an illusion of power. .,.,..... Lets take a moment to pause.. Pause. Lets bring your attention back to OM Now dont think about this just remember that i started off writing about OM. Now lets just breathe... .. . . . In.... .......Out ..............in ....................Out .............................In ...................................Out ......................................................... Okay lets begin again, remember OM.... and what i have said about the nervous system and our experiences as a part of the nervous system .......................................................... So now lets say What would happen if we were to NOT select a few sensations to experience, lets say we were to feel ALL of what is happening with-in our nervous system. One "MAY" think that it would be very confusing... very much just a jumble of feeling, and very chaotic... maybe even some what uncomfortable.. Ofcourse its not, this is all very present in each of our lifes and we know this knowlegde very well. So when i give my self the chance to experience all of what my nervous system is experiencing, then it would be infact the very opposite of confusing.... it would be like taking in all of the sounds(vibrations) of the universe at once It would be the sound of OM the heart beat of the divine... I am all that i am in this place. Soooo i though i'd write about my experience because i realized that it is very left brained, it's a very all most scientific "male" way of looking at things.. So i suppose i offer this for balace... looking at Om with in our physical body's and experience this with in this 3D Reality Have fun Love Andreas

Creation station in progress

Ahn-Druid — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 01:30:28 GMT

Well, here it is. Manifesting studio space for Sacred Expressions As i dive deeper into the inner workings of sacred Geometry, and Art as spiritual expansion, and wisdom. Eye recognize the power and etheric communication of our surroundings, and of course what we wear on our body's. how this affects our patterning and integration process of life .. my intention is creating images, using the medium of leather, stones, wood and bone. to create "Sacred Expressions" Sacred Expressions that are designed to open specific doors into our body: for healing, spiritual practice, personal empowerment, and straight up fun, beautiful & sacred body wear. I just got some recent photos up.. Enjoy :) To live in the present, is to live in the light of love. Andreas

Light Body Activation.

Ahn-Druid — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 04:37:20 GMT

Soo aligning our energy grids and meridians with that of the earth and the universal mind, “which is composed of universal love (Unconditional love)” The primary forces that are presented to awaken and align our light body is: Love, Light and Life. The foundation of our essence self and a extension of all of our body’s. Now Aligning the pillar of light & invocation of Christ consciousness, divine guardians and archangels, for assisting and protecting us along our journeys into the inner planes and higher realms. So what are we looking at with in the focus of this light energy work? And the various meditations that can possibly come about. Sacred ceremony, (individually, and collectively) for healing of our self and the planet Simply aligning and being that of which we truly are. The mastery of the physical, active channels and focusing of prima universal energy’s… Focusing working with Parana: (cosmic) Masculine primal life-force, and Shakti Kundilini: (Earthly) Feminine Primal life force.. thus forth creating channels and/or vortex’s into the earths core, for the communication necessary for sending Healing, Prayers, Consciousness and giving thanks to our mother, and telepathic communication with inter dimensional beings that work for the good of the universal Christ consciousness, and or universal love. Accenstion. Okay I’m just rambling, its more for my personal study and referencing than education/remembering of information we already know. Heheh thanks for listening

Missing the West coast vibes

Ahn-Druid — Sat, 25 Nov 2006 06:18:57 GMT

Soo i guess this is an update of my journey's.... Lately life has been very intense, sooo many wonderful experiences, soo many challenges. There has been so much affirmation of truth an light. Finding people who i can communicate with on such a profound level, exploring new gateways and finding abundant unconditional love. My Juki (Industrial sewing machine) was supposed to arrive last Tuesday, none the less its on its way traveling through many hands to arrive in my space. Oh! and how i welcome it with open arms!! This is a major step in the manifestation, an expansion of my art. Though its been quite a challenge living here in Calgary, Another step along spirits path.. I feel as though Victoria for me was much about cultivating inner wisdom and pulling it right up and to the surface! Exploring physical expression and communication of many gifts in a profound out-spoken way. While being nurtured by community and given that safe space to explore.. I Missing the West coast vibrations, and as i am pulling and shedding that energy with me upon Calgary. i still struggle to shine my fullest with out that support, of my dearest Victoria family. Now it is time for me to step into a very humble place of being & stillness, yet find that balance to communicate spirits breath, and live in my full light.. OHH an look at that! its 11:11 I Send so much love to Victoria! i hold all of you so close to my heart, after all we are all family, I have booked time off between the 26th & the 4th to go to Intention. Which i hope is still going to me moveing forward, how interesting the karmic pattern would be, if as a collective we had no space to hole such a retreat. Lets tap into our natural state of being and Send our Intentions out for such a piece of land to hole this event. None the less i feel i need to travel to the west coast and reconnect, In which case i should be coming down to share my love. Many many blessing Love & Light Andre's

Steping Still Motion

Click. Click. Each moment gone with the wind, Constant change is all we know ...coming into presence being conscious of the seeds we sow Rooting with the tree's Ancient wisdom that glow Remember. Stillness is a flowing gateway, Do not resist the waters of all that is For we are written in the stars And manifest, that we might Give our trust to truth and light sometimes this path is illuminated my shadow reflections for me to see the beauty S.u.r.r.e.n.d.e.r. A.c.c.e.p.t. All that is..... Is.

Ahn-Druid — Tue, 26 Sep 2006 02:35:05 GMT

Holding the key within her eye's Deep seeded remembrance sacred womb I awaken, flying still We are As OhNEy is Breaking the barriers of my limits Rising the waters of my conciseness Through this reflection i am god Walk along the path Dirt within toe's as colors shed from the trees Walk along the path Bare foot to feel the earth deep inside you to feel the creator as you look unto the eyes of the one She is as complex, As stillness is As vast as unity manifested Step unto thy portal Transcend unto the language of light We dance as one kindled spirit caressing the Rhythm of three I do not question why me We are the emerging element Masters of our destiny human Beamings As two steps become one Listen You are home Photo By: Ryan Schmidt.. www.Photoryan.com

4th Dimentional Collective dream-time intentional Gatherings

Ahn-Druid — Fri, 25 Aug 2006 05:15:34 GMT

OKAY.. So last night or this morning i became lucid in my dream time, now how did this happen..... like so: I was at a party. it was at this giant house with multiple pools and water slides. at this gathering there were many many close friends Jazzlin, Stephen, Christopher(many of them hehe) Coco, Terron.. and list goes on. while i was talking to Naomi, I said to her "This place is great what a wonderful gathering" So what did she say to me? she said " well you know.. this gathering is a collective 4th dimensional dream time party, where we all chose to come here at this time" i became lucid at that point. as a trigger, it made me think of the lucid dreaming work shop at on of the oracle gatherings i went to. in this work shop the brother was talking about a collective dream time party that is always going, and different ways of activating your body to reach this place. So i thought about our community creating a similar gathering, that we can connect at though the 4th dimension/ and or dreamtime. So what do you think? could we make it a reality? or was I actually experiencing the real thing last night, fill me inn let me know if any similar things happened to you.. remember it was a new moon bringing in a charged energy field. Much love. Andre's
