Women's Power to Heal Mother Earth!

Prana- The power of breath, supported by many thousands of conduits from the cosmos. At this powerful time of human isolation, let us remember one of our most potent inner medicines which we may simply call upon to heal and be stronger, the power of breath.  Prana controls the breath of the planetary heart.  The fantastic rise of heart-related diseases and other health impairments are due, in part, to the dysfunction of bodily prana.  When breath suffers, sadness prevails.  This eternal breath moves the entire universe.  Imagine the earth spinning in her galactic dance with other planets in the cosmos.  What a gorgeous feat it is to observe prana.  The breath of the planet is the source of vitalization and renewal.  When this layer of energy is sickened, the earth and her inhabitants exude fear, pain, tremors, and spasms.

Pranayama, the practice of breathing in harmony with universal rhythms was handed down by the world’s oldest known cosmic physicists, scientists - the Vedic seers of the Hindu Tradition. This knowledge of prana, along with numerous breath practices can help us to seal health and keep us in harmony with our universe.

Go ahead...breathe consciously and leisurely, spend the next few minutes feeling the harmonic resonance you are creating wihin and without.

In this time of the divisive otherness when wars, hatred, violence and disasters erupt around the world, we are reminded that demonstrating kindness is the most effective path to healing rift, grievances, and despair. During these times, when we are overpowered by these conditions which may appear omni-present in our personal world, we are called to remember our nature of kindness. . Kindness is an innate part of human nature. We do not have to reach deep to find it. It is ever-generating, ever present.   Kindness and Love are not emotions, these are attributes which are deeply configured into the DNA of our tissues and memory.   These innate elements are always in the undercurrent of our lives waiting to rise to our rescue. Often, we suppress this nature through fears, preoccupation or distractions stemming from painful, difficult and disruptive occasions that are unfolding in our lives.

A Guru. The simple, pure form of the soul born to selfless search  and service of the "I", The Self that is "Tat Tvam Asi" = "I am that illimitable consciousness".   Across the vast swatch of nature, we are surrounded by the bliss of the Guru each and every moment.  Each and every part of nature is a Guru, Mother Earth is a humungous Guru, each tree a teacher, each drop of water a devotee saint, every breath of air, a refreshing master. Nature's seed sovereignty is a ruling Guru without whose sacrificial participation we starve to death. 

Did you know that every vulgar, vile, violent experience is a “Saturnal “ Guru, learning by the lash of the whip. However, arduous and bitter the lessons are these experiences remain our teaching curves. Our perennial Gurus.  When first I wrote these words, my lessons from the vicious experience of being targeted by well-organized hate- driven bullies were still maneagable. It is twelve years later and myprivacy and human freedom are still at the mercy of unimagineable 
intrusions, and violence against my physical beingness and work. Yet, these words of wisdom rise to serve me, to keep me sentient, to remind me that love is inscribed as a cellular memory in each and everyone of us, including the haters and misinformed. And it is this memory that we must lean on to carry us through to the light.  When in  evolution a human Guru takes birth, their paths are often riddled with sharpness, surrounded by the ignorance of the world, by biases, jealousies of those they serve, marginalization, ridicule and , in many cases, castration by violence and other vile acts against them. 

In the popular world culture we are continually striving to seek the wisdom of the ancients, but we have to be sufficiently reconciled to our self-worth to be prepared to seek Self-knowledge.    We want to learn from the master, the Guru but, for many, because we are so spiritually starved from the loss of self-sovereignty, we continually find ways to undermine the elder, disavow the lessons thrown in our path, oftentimes because we forget that the greatest Guru is the inner Guru.

During this time of global chaos, dysfunction, political, emotinal and planetary struggles each one of us may be challenged to find a dynamic sense of balance. Maya points to the Vedic way of understanding to show how brilliant our human anatomy truly is: that we have hidden treasures that we need to mine in order to arouse stamina, and reach our core strengths. She recommends the simple practice of Nitya Karma ~ the attitude of self-surrendering. Maya explores the simple, brilliant process of  this surrender~ Listen In

We live in a country where there are more guns than citizens. 433 million registered guns in the USA. The culture of violence has become the norm. 
The false values of corruption, Competion, rivalry, unkindness,  ignornace  and inhumanity are on the rise. The only way we can turn this tide around is through shifting our individual sense of value and esteem to Ahimsa- the timeless value of being a human being.   Choosing to live in Ahimsa means choosing non violence, non-injury, and doing the work to cultivating inner harmony. Exposing or revealing dark thoughts, dark words, violent actions we give ourselves permission to open to healing our inner angst when we use these dark moments to shift our thinking, belief system away from the Otherness the binary, the duality is us/them that creates so much pain. For thirty five years Maya Tiwari has been teaching the inviolate  work of awareness through the way of Ahimsa.   Maya  has personally helped thousands to heal, and continue with her own courageous journey as she muses about "ahimsa" from a very personal point of view. Through the Peace Mandala World Tours she has guided more than one million people in the Vow of  Ahimsa. We invite you to listen, learn, share and, most of all, join us in the way of Ahimsa.

Mother Earth blesses us with a trillion  natural medicines. in the ongoing reality of viruses, and contaminations, and environmental diseases, despair, and disasters it is high time we take back our human authority and integrity from the pharmaceutical agglomerates and their power driven race to profit from human disease and despair in the last century.   This is our golden opportunity to take back our rightful reigns in reclaiming indigenous, native systems of medicine- so that, once again, we can heal, nourish ourselves, each other and Mother Nature.

To parrot Frederich Nietzche, when we stare into the abyss for too long, the abyss stares back at us. I have found myself staring into the abyss,  perambulating its event horizon until my feet fell out, and my mind became blurred. The abyss staring back at me. Anger is necessary, it is a helpful way to vent, shout and scream out our rgae, discomfort, and tear out the injustice of it all. But anger has two faces; positive and negative. When we hang onto it, righeously or otherwise,  for too long, it boomerangs with the same force of its output.  Be aware. Never, never allow anger to fester for too long. Allow it to change and morph by shedding light to it,  "my persceptive may be askew"; "I am not able to see the whole truth of it", " I am tired and need to step back from it.".... many lanterns are there to help shed awareness. And this gives the neccessary repreive to dissolve the intensity and one pointed dagger of anger.

 As you may know from my work of Honoring Ancestors,  evert angry, wrathful, violent thought and/or negative response we have ever issued can be traced to the cellular memories we carry within our genetic composition which had been sculpted by familial bloodlines.  Ancestral memories mold our relationship to the world and can control our responses and behavior unless we bring awareness to them. The ancestors can be both the source of the hardship and the remedy.  Each time we allow a challenge to push our buttons, we push deeper into the murk of ancestral chasm.

With ancestral awareness, and contInually bringing light to our angst, rage, worry, discomfort, we tend to make a more humane choice when faced with challenges. In this way, we transcend the ancestral ground of negative angst. We we grow, we morph into our humanity, always an uncomftable terrain. But, in so doing, we can elevate both ourselves and the ancestral spirits.  Peace Be Your Journey!

This illusive, sought after thing is not an illusion. It is tge ever flowing vibration beneath the grime, crime, and slime of living. It is immutable energy always present always accessible, if we learn how to stay open to it. Happiness is not what we think it is.  It is not to be found in the state of the mind. It is not a goal to be pursued. 
Like desires, it arises from the depth of our past impressions stored within the cognition over many rebirths. We can no more control desires than we can control happiness. It is ever-flowing, generated by the unconditional desire to be happy.  Happiness  blossoms when we understand our nature is happiness. 

Amid the dankness and chaos of our individual world and the world at large, we find ourselves hard-pressed to eke out the space and time necessary to pause, to breathe into the inner sanctum where the immortal happiness lives. But, this we must do- day after day, regardless and because of.  Our primordial nature is happiness, our nature is the pure desire for freedom, liberation form the endless cycles . Ultimately, it is the character of our happiness that forges the way to freedom and consciousness.

Ode to Flaco- magical, mystical citizen of NYC

Partial Transcript-

Flaco, the Eurasian eagle-owl, beloved citizen of NYC died sometime early Friday morning, on Feb 23rd.
The snow moon has just risen in the eerie early morning. The researchers from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation traced two unique lunar communication behaviors of the Eurasian Eagle Owl during each of the major phase of the moon: vocal communication and visual communication. During the full moon the Eurasian Eagle Owl is turned on by moonlight. The brighter the moon, the more frequent the calls. But along with the owls' vocalizations is the moon’s affect on the owls’ visual communication.The study is one of the few that have looked at intraspecies communication of nocturnal birds and the findings provide further evidence lunar cycles affect the behaviors of animal species.

I choose to think that this celibate, monk-like bird was responding to his palpitating heart for his beloved owl mate. eagle owls communicate similarly at dusk and at dawn to when the moon is full, and suggest that this is because the amount of ambient light at dusk and dawn are about the same as a moonlit night.... shedding the aura of romantic hues this majestic creature was longing for the company of his mate. Eagle owls have white patches of soft feathers under their beaks that they show only when vocalizing. So, as the moon gets brighter, and the eagle owls are calling to their mates more frequently, so do these owls climb to higher perches where they can be more easily spotted. A grand freedom year to date, the Moon brilliantly relecting in the high perches of glass windows, Flaco obeying his avian instinct must have flown into his own reflection made bright by the vision of moon. He reached not the open skies, nor the enbrace of his beloved girl-owl but a crushing barbarism, crashing to his death. His spirit released, he is soaring in the high ethers alongside his proud ancestors, and perhaps there his spirit has already enjoined his beloved mate.

His radical journey from captivity at the Central Part Zoo - from the time he was a fledgeling 13 years ago, to his absolute freedom on the historic day of Feb 2, 2023 when his cage was cut open, demands our reverential awe. Falco took his maiden flight to freedom and was never captured again until he laid down, body vanquished, spirit risen on the cold concrete slab at 89St on CPW. Flaco's momentous act of freedom has split open each one of our hearts. Owls are known to never follow the herd, they live independently, cherishing their own company, the ooutlier of the avian species.

The freedom seeker, Flaco is a magical, mystical New York story. He is helping every disciples to reveal our own back story. Like every act of martyrdom in deeply troubled times, Flaco's plunge to certain death instills a reverence for the lifeforce, diminishing the fears we carry around toxic urban disease, death and dying. My own story swelled up inside my throat. I grew up in Greenwich Village; left the city to build my non profit school in the wilderness of North Carolina, acres of Cherokee forest where I could seed my Ayurveda gardens. But I kept returning to the city, to that imperishable creative vortex force where the spirit of its citizens is held in abeyance. After twenty years, the tide of harmony had turned in my forest. Barbarism against my person, as spiritual person, a woman of colour, a successful woman, a woman of Hindu origins, a woman of robes, escalated, targeted as I were by the brutal network of the  many tentacled patriarchs. So just a few months ago I decided to close my operations in NC and returned to my home base in the city, largely because I heard and empatized wi

Maya explores the way Sanskrit chants,  pilgrimages and other awe-inspiring practices of Nature heighten the natural scalar waves responsible for cohesion and wellness in the body. The way science views the pilgrim’s experience can be said, as follows:  Scalar waves generated in the body provide an energetic communication system that connects all cells. This energy contains the power of the universe and has unlimited potential.  All pilgrimages heighten our inner resource of positive vibrations within the body.  Positive mental attitude is communicated through the scalar field generated by thousands of möbius coils at the cellular level and can effect the cell’s mode of growth or protection. Scientists have created scalar wave generators for therapeutic purposes and have confirmed that a scalar field can create a twenty-fold stimulation of cell growth in human immune system cells.

This heightened vibration was evident as my colleague and I journeyed along the magnificent southern plains flowing in tandem with the Kauveri River, a few years ago. I noticed how faithfully the river led, guided, and blessed us as we crisscrossed her boundaries. On this seamless serpentine route, rural women soaked fully clad in her abundance; they washed clothing by beating them on rock surfaces whilst children playing, splashed about in the water; white egrets stood on royal guard in tall grasses of the bordering marshland - protecting the sublime energy of wholeness in these raw, bare-chested villages. The scalar waves' energy was naturally heightened during this pilgrimage North and South in India. The feeling of awesome wellness pervaded.
