Holy dog crap, K-list, you were busy last night!
Reading all these messages it seems to me that many people are beginning to
take on Christopher's writing style. Now, what do you all have to say about
THAT? /grin/ You -will- be assimilated.
Mystress: No kidding about the moon. When I started feeling the content of
these 75 posts, I immediately thought, we are not our own. :) Butting heads
and hearts in the moonlight, how romantic...
Noisy Catalin wrote: "In Silence one find Joy. What else do you need?" I
need to eat, get medical care when I need it, take care of family members
that can't pay their own way... the list goes on. Life isn't silent, why
shut it out? I appreciate your response, though, and tempted by that
silence (have been there before)... but being required to live in the world
I live in precludes it.
Christopher: Thanks for sharing, you roast, you. /smile/ What is your
native language?
Cat: You put mirrors on the front of your house. I have been fantasizing
about putting mirrors throughout the inside of my house. Not just the
little octagonal Feng Shui ones Mystress wrote of. I mean: lining every
surface. Fun house style. And to think I don't get into looking at my own
image in a live mirror. Is this some sort of attempt at self torture? You
mentioned standing between two mirrors... I imagine my home would be like
standing inside a mirror. Infinity in all directions. Given what houses
often represent in dreams, I wonder what our urges have to say about our
states. :)
Missy Chicken: Glad to have you here. Is that your real name?
Paul: Kisses on the Wind, indeed... beautiful post, dear.
Susan, our Divine Goddess: Nice to see your posts... have missed you. I,
however, am afraid to hear of Christopher's mad scientist experiments...
perhaps they would mirror my own, or perhaps they involved small animals
(which I really can't bear to read about)... or perhaps I'm just
projecting. /big silly grin/
Angelique wrote: "There is similar argument about Mary pictured standing on
a snake. Christians see it as Her trampling Satan, Kundalites see it as Her
springing from the K serpent. Kundalini provides the visions of the
Mother." I took an art history course a while back that traced a this split
(JudeoChristian / Earth Cult) in western art. A very powerful course... a
very dynamic professor. We all sat transfixed during his lectures... or
perhaps that was just this person sitting transfixed to the exclusion of
all else. My favorite lecture? The one that took us on an exploration of
landscape: from the sublime paintings depicting the fury and enormity of
nature (compared to you, the speck of dust) through impressionism through
post-impressionism and into the 20c... as the professor's fury and speed
increased, the paintings reduced, becoming less, becoming simpler, honing
in on essence. 2 hours into a 1 hour 15 minute class, he finally reached
the climax. Throwing one of Rothko's paintings up on the screen (Earth and
Green, or, was it an even quieter one?), he spoke of it in the most
sensually loving terms, proclaimed IT the END OF ART, turned off the
projector, and, leaving us all dumbfounded in the dark, left the room. In
the end, it isn't about a trampled satan or a life giving serpent...
Froggy: What a wonderful exercise! I have been doing similar things for a
while now... though from a different direction. My bones came first,
specifically, my vertebra... then the wiring around my spine and extending
into my belly and then other centers. This is not a linear process, it
takes care of itself... right now the process is glued to my pelvic bone
and sacrum... and still somewhat to the base of my skull and the muscles on
the upper left side of my neck. :) It comes to me that this could be
hypochondria if I were reacting to it...
Christopher, again: "If you can look on the other with compassion and see
that's just the way the other is .. without any reaction on your
part, then this aspect of the mirror does not necessarily apply."
Interesting... I find that when I am truly engaged in the process of
sharing "someone else's" state, that my mouth is not my own, it tends to
blurt things out. Is this a reaction? Perhaps an untrained awareness
expressing itself. Example: sitting in the first session I had with a
particular therapist, we were approaching the end of the introduction chat
when I noticed that her left eye socket was turning purple and her eye was
receding into her head. Meanwhile, my left eye, the bones above it, and the
space behind it felt as though a dagger had been plunged in and the whole
area was being wrung out. She asked me if I had any questions and my mouth
blurted: "No! But do -you- need to take a break?!" She asked me how I knew
(very quick of her, I was impressed... she caught me)... my response to
that was equally automatic. Reaction or automatic response?
Ok, have a great day, all... I really must get ready for work!
peace and health,
Nina
