sixsixsixties


Quite how a 3.5 legged feline chonk catches a non-nocturnal bird in the wee hours, is something "prudence only knows", but goodness did she try and tell all, in a multi-media show involving zebra and a towel. here is a short extract from act 3 entitled 'birdie on the ledge'.



Domino, Six years old this spring...




Psyches Playboy, sweet sixteen this spring...





Laguna, recently rescued from the old millponds in the valley. Peacock Angel!


Our oldest resident, Igor, getting some spring warmth in old bones...




Sixty this spring


The red double tetrahedron of dakini land with double serpents


Bo (mongolian) horse shaman sunwheel


Bon mandala / map of temple 
with four cardinal gates
(note well the heads and flayed corpses)

Translation




Reading 'dakini yoga' by the venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche (though these are an ordering of traditional revelations, not an invention) an unknown to me device appeared, as a herald of the dakini power presence; to whit: "a red double tetrahedron appears". Which it transpires, is a red hexagram, the dakini-power symbol, translated into three dimensions. So I made one of willow twigs:





this spring I have seen two 'meteorites' over the valley, the second time us both so could ask: what did you see? (sam saw blue, I saw green fire) space junk? silent ghostly fireworks? black iron from another star? each time I have felt a shiver, an immanence, have looked raptly and quickly at a quarter of the sky with no action, and each time, as if a fingernail from the other side has raked the firmament, a slow green rip of fire occurs and you feel airs resistace, always at an almost horizontal but falling arc.

cleaned blender. the universe taps your shoulder, sometimes in ways that defy notions of the spiritual continuum (or rather destroy your notions, rewire conciousness)





rewiring conciousness, very compeitive rates:
'Enquire Within...."



Likewise, a mandala, with its four gates, can be viewed as the floor plan, a map, of a possible/implied three dimensional temple.
