in the sky,

and angels.
dark like earth
light as sky,
with suns and moons
and stars.
in volcanoes
crystals and fire
rising from ashes
flying phoenix
through clouds,
emersing herself
in wetness of orchids

I endure in order to nurture
Transcending being
I seal the input of birth
With the cosmic tone of presence
I am guided by the power of life force

I am protective, receptive & nurturing primordial mother.
I operate from original source, initiating strong creative force.

your attributes, your perfect imperfections, your attitude, your style, your abilities, your heart, your willingness to learn and evolve, your fear & your willingness to transform, your capacity to accept, acknowledge and love every reflection mirrored back to you.

Don't let your mind get weary and confused
Your will be still, don't try
Don't let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there's a strength that lies

Don't let your soul get lonely child
It's only time, it will go by
Don't look for love in faces, places
It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
Don't lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don't put your trust in walls
'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now

Dream inside the volcano of the ancients
whose bittersweet tears of lava melt the rigid mountains of your mind

Let go of the beliefs and habits that help define who you think you are
and undergo the liquifying process of transformation

Your faith, the raw material that once held together the edifice of your distorted reflection,
now rests in the palm of your hand

Sculpt a beautiful new dream and send it into the heart of infinity

With every weightless breath, nurture your molten desire and embrace everything you ever were, are and will ever be

- Aaron Landman

I see you draped in a white cloth of safety and pure love
Knowing where you have been, knowing where you are going (even if it is the unknown).
You are anchored and yet winged
Your blood is the blood of orchids: juicy and deep colored, rich in iron and grace.
You dance inside the flowers, as you are their creator, a goddess...a nypmh, the lover of God himself.
You are destined for brightness
Because you are the light itself
The light does not see itself
It just knows that it is.
And so you are.
~Light~

The Yangtze river dolphin is today declared extinct. It is the first large animal to be wiped from the planet for 50 years, and only the fourth entire mammal family to disappear in 500 years. And it was driven to its death by mankind ...
After more than 20 million years on the planet, the Yangtze river dolphin is today officially declared extinct, the first species of cetacean (whale, dolphin or porpoise) to be driven from this planet by human activity.
An intensive six-week search by an international team of marine biologists involving two boats that ploughed up and down the world's busiest river last December failed to find a single specimen.
Today, the scientific report of that expedition, published in the peer-reviewed journal of the Royal Society, Biology Letters, confirms the dolphin known as the baiji or white-fin in Chinese and celebrated for its pale skin and distinctive long snout, has disappeared.
To blame for its demise is the increasing number of container ships that use the Yangtze, as well as the fishermen whose nets became an inadvertent hazard.

This is no ordinary extinction of the kind that occurs frequently in a world of millions of still-evolving species. The Yangtze freshwater dolphin was a remarkable creature that separated from all other species so many millions of years ago, and had become so distinct, that it qualified as a mammal family in its own right. It is the first large vertebrate to have become extinct for 50 years and only the fourth entire mammal family to disappear since the time of Columbus, when Europeans began their colonisation of the world.

The three previous mammal families gone from the face of the Earth are the giant lemurs of Madagascar, which were eliminated in the 17th century, the island shrews of the West Indies, probably wiped out by the rats that accompanied Colombus on his voyage, and the Tasmanian tiger, the last known specimen of which died in captivity in 1936. (The most famous creature to have become extinct in the past 500 years, the Dodo, was a bird.)

Sam Turvey, conservation biologist at the Zoological Society of London, who led the expedition to find the Yangtze dolphin and is chief author of the paper, said: "The loss of such a unique and charismatic species is a shocking tragedy. This extinction represents the disappearance of a complete branch of the evolutionary tree of life and emphasises we have yet to take full responsibility in our role as guardians of the planet."

Several other species are "just hanging on" in the Yangtze and could disappear within a few years unless action is taken now, Dr Turvey warned. They include the Chinese alligator, the finless porpoise and the Chinese paddlefish, which grows up to 7m long but has not been seen since 2003.

"There is a lot of interest now in the baiji - but it has come too late. Why does no one pay attention to a species until there are none left? We really have to use the baiji as a wake-up call to act immediately to prevent it happening again."

"What is poignant is that the Yangtze is a fast river system with a unique range of endemic species. Once they are lost there, they are lost everywhere," he said.

The object of last December's expedition was to rescue any baiji found and remove them to a 21km-long oxbow lake in the nature reserve of Tian'ezhou for an intensive breeding programme. Each of the two boats operated independently with scientists scanning the water with binoculars - dolphins have to surface to breathe - and listening with hydrophones for the distinctive whistles. Despite the technology, they found nothing.

"We used a very intensive survey technique. Both of the boats counted the same number of porpoises - we saw everything that was there. We didn't see a single dolphin," Dr Turvey said.

The cause of the freshwater dolphin's demise was instead all too plain to the investigators. It had become a victim of the world's most populous country's race to get richer. One tenth of the world's population live in the Yangtze river basin. During the expedition, scientists counted 19,830 ships on the 1,669km of the river they surveyed - one large freight vessel every 800m.
The Yangtze dolphin navigated by sonar - its eyes are useless in the murky water - but in a motorway jammed with container ships, coal barges and speed boats, its sonar was deafened and it ran a high risk of being hit or torn by propellers.
An even greater threat came from the nets and 1,000m lines of hooks used by fishermen.
Although they did not intend to catch dolphins, the creatures became entangled in the nets or lacerated by the bare hooks - almost half of all dead baiji found in the past few decades have died in this way. In addition, pollution had fouled their natural habitat and completion of the Three Gorges Dam worsened the decline in smaller fish on which the baiji fed.

However far away you think you are from living your grandest dreams, Sivitri, you're closer. Infinitely closer.

It's just your reliance upon the rational mind that blinds you to the true mechanics of every manifestation. You are not years, months, or even days away, you're just a little new thinking away. You are not miles, mountains, and continents away, but a few steps away. And you are not meant to sweat the "hows," but to open yourself to all possibilities as you move with the end in mind.

Trust me, Sivitri, if it were any easier, you wouldn't have bothered. I know you.

You are so-o-o-o close,
The Universe

The more you become a connoisseur of gratitude,
the less you are a victim of resentment, depression, and despair.
Gratitude will act as an elixir that will gradually dissolve the hard shell of your ego,
your need to possess and control and transform you into a generous being.
The sense of gratitude produces true spiritual alchemy, makes us magnanimous, large souled.

have you taken a really deep breath today...yes, even those of you in los angeles?

Friends,

This is insanity...

Please take a moment of your time and sign the petition referred in the link below to help stop the slaughter of thousands of dolphins annually in Japan. The dolphins are corralled into bays using underwater sonar equipment which confuses them and leads them into a trapped pen where they are speared and hoisted into the air, then stabbed being left to bleed and suffocate. It is a cruel and inhumane practice and it must be stopped. I must say the content is horrendous and unbelievable. Please, take a moment to sign the petition and watch the video if you need to see for yourself.

Also take a moment to visualize, pray and send light to surround and protect these beautiful beings.

Thank you

carpe diem

Enjoy the present and don't worry about the future, as in It's a beautiful day, so forget tomorrow's test
carpe diem! Latin for "seize the day," an aphorism found in the Roman writer Horace's Odes, this phrase has been used in English since the early 1800s.

Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore not by book
nor from tongue.
If knowledge of mysteries come after emptiness of mind, that is
illumination of heart.

One breath away from mother Oceanía
Your nimble feet make prints in my sand
You have done good for yourselves
Since you left my wet embrace
And crawled ashore
Every boy, is a snake, is a lily
Every pearl is a lynx, is a girl
Sweet like harmony made into flesh
You dance by my side
Children sublime
You show me continents
I see your islands
You count the centuries
I blink my eyes
Hawks and sparrows race in my waters
Stingrays are floating
Across the sky
Little ones, my sons and my daughters
Your sweat is salty
I am why
Your sweat is salty
I am why
I am why
I am why
