Hiya,

I seem very talkative today.
Just feel it is neccisary to state that everything I write are momentary lapses of now.
Which hold no power in the past or future.. So in essence you can disregard it completely.
Because by the time you read them they no longer are.

Stories of imagined life's. Tales of unexpected happenings. Figments of imagination even.
Concepts and idea's. Even the breath you are breathing now holds more truth than anything I can think of.

Works for me. Keep it coming. You have the start of a thoughtful thread going here.

In order to get to a karma, or specific event that is in the past.
Say the start of a friendship which feels it has spanned lifetimes, back in the day where I held on to a different outlook on life where these things were inside my paradigm I would use the following technique.

I sit down with my pendulum and several charts.
usually an world-map. a collection of random words chosen from the language of one or a Tarot deck and a thesaurus.
I would pendulum for a timeline, places on the map and a bunch of words after which i'd let it stew.
All through the day i'd think and feel into it.
Noting impressions and random thoughts which I would quickly muscle test for their relevance.

Somehow within hours to days in the shower or the bathtub a narrative would form.
Pictures would emerge telling the story and I would accept that (if muscle testing concurred) as truth.

Inanna was the Queen of Heaven who journey into the darkness of the underworld to visit her sister/shadow aspect of herself. At each of the 7 gates on her path downward she was asked to give up something of meaning; her jewels, her robes, her crown until she was naked and vulnerable; stripped of everything that she thought defined her.

When she met with her sister/shadow self, she was bare. Angry at her presence, her shadow sister Ereshkigal kills her and hangs her corpse on a hook. She is brought back to life 3 Days later with the help of her loyal priestess and returns to rule more wise and powerful before.

The lesson of Inanna and her descant into the underworld is one of stripping bare all the parts we believe define us and in this vulnerable and naked place merging with your own darkness to rebirth yourself as One. It is a deep well to dive into and one that awakens you and rebirths you into your truth

About

The first day of autumn
returning from alms round
I set down my bowl by the temple
to go play with the children.
Last year: a foolish monk.
This year: no change.

It's sad that most human beings are unable to grasp the concept of not knowing something.
The idea that someone elses experience may hold idea's, experiences and points of view so totaly opposite of our own inner life we cannot find the decensy to acknowledge the other person for what they believe or hold as truth.

I am as much most human being here as anyone else and confronted with conflicting ideas I too go through denail, oppositional behaviour..

But thats just because I am usualy right.

So who or what is God.

Is there a being conscious of every little thing?
Is there a being that knows all?

Or is it the flow of life. A spark igniting creational forces?
Or is (s)he just as much a figment of an imagined nation as the next..

Speaking for myself, I don't always know that I don't know. Sometimes I think I do know when I don't know and then I think I don't know when I do know . . .
Gotcha . . .

Here I was thinking i had lost touch with it.

Well not anymore...

Much like the Pagan sabbat Beltane and the more secular May Day, Flower Moon observations revolve around the bounty and beauty of nature this time of year (hence the moon's name). If you wish, you can absolutely spend this lunar phase celebrating nature and keep it as simple as that — after all, just taking a walk can be a full moon ritual. That said, this is also a great time to focus on the changes going on in your personal life, rather than the outside world.
