I Think Speech

To fear the wolf is to miss the opportunity to tap into its essence, which can be turned to the good. Many conservationists say reintroducing the wolf into the wild brings a better balance to the ecosystem. If we try to suppress these impulses they just come out sideways, & we get the wolf in sheep’s clothing, which in my thinking is much more lethal. How can we let the howl of the wolf alert us to the fact that the checks & balances are needing adjustment. How can the howl be heard, so that the call for freedom can be transformed from an unconscious selfish impulse, where the pack runs in for the kill; channeled instead into a call for a true freedom which serves the good of all.

Dear Friends, In the coming months, we will encounter events that require us to revise our understandings about the very nature of reality. Our imaginations will have to be ingenious & our hearts alert in order to keep up with the outlandish changes.

To locate truth amidst relentless waves of propaganda, we'll have to be fiercely disciplined & tenderly hate-free. Unclutched by fear. To avoid being infected by popular delusions, we'll have to cultivate compassionate lucidity, humble courage, & a determination to rouse our will.

We are primed to commune much more intimately with the hidden source of power that fuels life. We are close to meeting the requirements defined by visionary poet William Blake who wrote: "Unless the eye catch fire, God will not be seen. Unless the ear catch fire, God will not be heard. Unless the tongue catch fire, God will not be named. Unless the heart catch fire, God will not be loved. Unless the mind catch fire, God will not be known."

Let’s catch fire, to enkindle a passion to know god in all her forms. And to nurture our home fires that we must keep ever burning, as well as the communal fire that we must gather around & feed with our very breath.

today is the 15th January 2021, Martin Luther King Jr’s Birthday – he would have been 92. I want to dedicate this ‘I Think Speech’ podcast to the inspiring human being who works with us from the Spiritual world for Justice & peace.

We are the sleeping giant - The buried god - Wake up in the dream. Practice lucid tolerance to banish intolerance. Read between the lies. To question is to answer. Friends, there are no innocent by-standers. There is no us & them. The dragon & the frontlines are in us all. And truth is a triple-edged sword that we must fashion. From Equity, comes Solidarity, which forges Freedom.

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

“But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough can you see the stars.”

“Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.”

“There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.”

~hag, with you on the frontlines

"...Let us suppose that a great number of people, because of uncharitableness, had been impelled to absorb certain infectious germs, so that they succumbed to an epidemic. Let us further suppose we were in a position to protect them from this epidemic. We should in such a case preserve the physical body from the effects of uncharitableness, but we have not removed the inner tendency towards uncharitableness. If we want to bring a true healing, we must also undertake the duty of influencing the soul in such a way as to remove from it the tendency towards a lack of charity, or the disease will go deeper into the soul..." ~ Rudolf Steiner, Manifestations of Karma, LECTURE 8,

~The truth

Of what we call our knowing

Is both light & dark…

Humans are always dying & waking…

The rhythm between, we call life…

Some miracle is about

To happen…

~Behold the eye that holds you...

Without hands it made life...

You will be Her hands...

Sing & She will sing thru you...

Your work is Her will...if what you make,

Your body, your love, your peace - is good, it will endure...

When the eye opens wink back...

I am ever searching for the spiritual significance behind world events. I have been thinking about how the corona crisis has made us catch our breath – has literally stopped our breath & endangered our collective heart. And seeks to modify our very humanness by altering the RNA in our blood.

Finding the connections between ourselves & the world situation, let us breathe deep into our lungs knowing that with this & every breath we take in spiritual life forces that stimulate the warmth & life in our blood, enabling us to be, to think, to feel./ Then when we breathe out - into the world - we are filling the atmosphere with the concepts of our being, of our thoughts & feeling life. Are we sharing into the ethers enlivened life forces of light, love & warmth? - Or are we breathing out fearful death forces, cold hard unconscious darkness…?

Rudolf Steiner says “We think we see with our eyes, but we don't literally see with these outer organs. They are a kind of microscope, or telescope, or camera, a fairly dead body in us. We see by means of it, with etheric activity.” He explains that we perceive colors as the result of etheric activity. If we look at green & afterwards at a white sheet of paper, we see it’s reversal as red. (hmm the Christmas colors, go ahead after the call get out your crayons & give it a try) This seeing is due to the continuation of the etheric activity of the eye, which answers to the impressions of colors. We see a balance. We never see an actual color as it is, but always a balance. We produce complementary colors thru the etheric activity of our eye; & what we see - the final physical effect, is a balance, even if we are not consciously aware of it. But when we do make it our intention to be conscious, we became co-creators of this new etheric sight.

POD (Poem Of the Day)

~Today I invoke:

“For if it were impossible for man to sink into the abyss of evil, he would not have been able to attain what on the one hand we call love and on the other freedom; since to the occultist freedom is inseparably connected with the idea of love.

It would be impossible for man to develop either love or freedom without the possibility of sailing down into the abyss. A man unable, of his own free decision, to choose good or evil, would be a being who would only be led on a puppets-string to a good which must be attained of necessity and who had no power to choose the good of his own fully purified will, by the love which springs from freedom.

If it were impossible for man to follow in the trail of the monster with the two horns, it would also be impossible for him to follow God out of his own individual love.

It was in accordance with a wise Providence to give the possibility of freedom to the humanity which has been developing through our planetary system, and this possibility of freedom could be given on no other condition than that man himself has to make the free choice between good and evil.“ ~Rudolf Steiner, The Apocalypse of St. John, Lecture XII https://wn.rsarchive.org/GA/GA0104/19080630p01.html

In-Form

What wants to be in-formed on the Earth now, & how can we give it expression?

Friends, we will continue to experience upheaval until we decide to take up our true birth right as human beings, to envision & work for: unselfish Freedom, Equity & Solidary under the guidance of Columbia, the divine feminine quality of Peace, in collaboration with the Cosmopolitan Spirit of our Age, Michael, who asks us to transform our thinking into a Universal Will for Good.

Let the freedom dove fly. Shout unity to the sky. Let war & greed die. Claim justice on high.
