questions

am i "not good enough to be famous" or "not famous enough to be good?"

does everything always have to "have a point" or would we hurt others less without such weapons?

how much risk and danger is involved in creating a truely "safe place"?

can our thinking and resulting life change the world or is the world dominated by a global elite and we can't do anything about it?

are "either or" questions even fair?

how much do you think about the universe and the earth community in particular as multi dimensional?

the scriptures speak of the "7th heaven", how many have you experienced?

where does love come from, and can we create more of it?

how key are these three things in how things work in this current vibrational manifestation:

fear?
guilt?
shame?

If the global elite and all the various secret societies and governments had less people living under fear, guilt and shame could there be a shift of power away from them and their "new world order"?

have you ever looked at the world and recognized that most of us are in a disconnected sort of trance?

have you sensed any shift in human consciousness in the past 10 years?

have you had any shifts in your awareness in the past 10 seconds?

if we continue to hold to a "they" mentality can we ever break free?

where is the love?

what percent of the planet has awakened to the spirit?

can music and art flow from the spirit realm and bring to this dimension a greater reality?

one filled with light, life and laughter?

if not through me and you then through who?

what are we waiting for?

why keep searching for the answers

why keep searching for the answers
when the question moves you so?

why start waiting for the morning
when the moon's in magic flow

why act so forsaken?
like you're all alone?
like there's no way, no way home?

Why keep telling same old stories?
all been done it stays the same
while we're looking through those glasses
never guess how much the skyline's changed

it used to be so easy
just follow all the rules

but there are some things we cannot see
with the microscpoe or telescope or any other kind of scope that
we might learn to build for ourselves so we can feel in control

why keep searching for the answers
when the question moves you so?

why start waiting for the morning
when the moon's in magic flow?

Thoughts on the way to the Fort

light aircraft, tilts and circles round oil land
scattered textured clouds give human eye sense of distance round this sphere

two swallows bounce and glide
through dust smudged passenger window

why not join them for a while?

seven eights afternoon moon
is it waxing? waning? watching? waiting?

Can you picture the presence of the wireless cage like net we've drawn?
So what? so 5 tp 10 % of us can be "entertained" while riding a bike or shitting down the toilet?

I pod, you pod we all scream for *$&^#ING ICE CREAM...god!!

We've achieved the speed of light but it's not through savagely consuming fossil fuel
Do you really need to blast through our precious, gracious blue with an obscene orgy of carbon emission?
Man I touch the moon every night - It's really not that far you know.

7/8 afternoon moon
is it waxing? waning? watching? waiting?

So much awareness now and less and less room for pleading ignorance.
Is it all just another way of "having fun"
or could we really get it done?

7/8 afternoon moon
waxing, waning, watching, waiting, wanting, wishing...

Doctrine set straight

Ah, someone finally managed to set my doctrine straight. some reading this may REJOICE.

When me, Terry, Mathew and Harold had our first practice for last Sunday's morning gathering
I wasn't sure what would happen except that I would have the great honor of playing the drum with my brothers.

I was handed a CD by Michael Jacobs. "They Come Dancing"

I scanned the CD package and noticed a name, Roy Salmond, cool. Also I noticed a track entitled

"The End of The World"

So here I am, in an FCE church being handed a CD by a well known gospel producer. My immediate reaction was to dig into the lyrics to discover michael's view on eschatology. You gotta understand the last couple Western Canadian Christian CD's were like brimstone in leather tights and lights.

What an absolute change of context when I read the lyric and see it's a song about an eastern boy being on the West Coast looking out onto the "end of the world". WOW

So then Terry goes over his vision of the morning, smudge, sweet grass, songs, the 4 directions thingy, the snake dance etc. AND Terry's talk on the importance of having "Right Doctrine" and that right thinking leads to right actions etc.


I thought to myself "What the hell? THAT's what you want to speak on?" What about the incredible energy to be released, the gathering in, I'm thinking of all the deep mysteries and significance of this syncronicity" ?????

So I was thoroughly pumped about participating but from that point on I was carrying something with me. What doctrine is he gonna focus on? All those neo post evangelical fears start rising up. I'm thinking what if some of my theories about the coming of Christ seap back into the conversation? yikes!

So i called Terry on his cell Saturday night just to find out what time he wanted me there in the morning. There was so much I wanted to say, so many others in my circle and in my consciousness who are somehow also already connected to what's being grown here....but the call went kind of like this.

Hello Terry here,

Hi Terry, paul here I called home and got your cell,

ya,

hey what time do you want me there in the morning?

8 o'clock

OK see ya at eight

bye


Well I have to say hearing Terry's talk on Sunday was equally and further surprising and full of epiphanies as Michael' song.

So after all this time. all the theologies and doctrines and interpretations. After all the christian culture of very particular laws and commonly held "views" of reality, I've finally found a doctrinal statement I can believe in. But it's not something from a book. It's already written on the hearts of humankind. Intuition, creativity, syncronicity, peace, love, respect, trust, humility, honesty and courage.

Hey i should add a few links here this Michael's site SACRED NATION

And where I'm gonna go from now on to keep my doctine straight TIPI TALES


for now...
