From Childhood to Adulthood

Psychic powers — Boys and girls floating in air

Not just in dreams, but in the material world, sometimes

Levitation — Moving objects with one’s mind — Force

Of will — Influencing others’ thoughts and emotions

Their parents also have this gift, but they choose not

To practice it — Which causes anger and resentment

But over time both the parents and the children compromise

The play of life continues onwards, and the new overtakes the old

While retaining the best of the old order — Patterns of eternity

Changes

Looking out my window at the treeline, from past to future

What once was diminished by imbalance and progress

Now lives free and true, a century of uninhibited growth

And flowering — All of the people I loved are gone

Taken by time and circumstance and the promise

Of a better life far away, in the Mega Cities and even beyond Earth

The mistakes of the 20th century have been fixed

Balance between humanity and nature has been restored

My home is a paradise on Earth, and most every change has been good

Yet I can’t help but wish that I could see some of my old friends

Earth Family — Soul mates, especially the ones I dream about

Alan Watts - Living in the present (boat analogy) (by joeybenn)

Insight

Patterns of eternity in pools of water

Nautical shapes and spirals illustrating wisdom

And I heard a voice within my head

I only wanted to find the signs of ancient

Presence in each drop of the rivers and oceans

I dropped the ancient leaf of some long forgotten tree

And watched the patterns of water rearrange

But always there was the same spiral toward infinity

No matter how hard I tried to break or change it

The pattern always found a way to reform again

I only wanted to find out how many could see

The unbounded territory of life — Nature’s design

I bowed before the water and trees and laughed

What we see is not limited to one time or space

We are everything which we have ever seen or done

I saw a serpent slither across the ancient leaf and turn

From within the drops of water it was now outside

And I was inside where it had formerly been

But I was not afraid of my new perception

As part of the living whole which is always present

And now it was night and the serpent returned

Effortlessly trading places with me once again

Now ready to spread this knowledge

Far and wide and deep into the core of our being

Do not fear that which has yet to pass in awakening

Like a beautiful lotus new things undreamed of by philosophy

Open and bloom upon the foreheads of our successors

We will have time to enjoy the fruits of our learning and yearning

Meeting always again in a new form when we are ready

To see each other again after a long time’s absence

Or only a few moments — Drinking the waters of life

Wisdom of the Future Age — Eternal Life, Love, Light

Dwelling always in Peace, inside and outside — Beyond the stars

Lavender Violet Love Flying Fish Time Travel

World Forest Paradise Future Home

The community house has been being built over many generations

Centuries old gardens grow food and medicine for body and soul

Many people live close by — Friends, family, and neighbors

Many beautiful women — Lovers, mothers, scholars, artists

Yet it is not easy — Only a few are soul mates — Those

Without which there is nothing — The meaning of life

Or part of the secret at least — Inspiration for helping others

Making the Longhouse a haven for those seeking refuge

A base of operations for heroes and heroines

The Patriarch’s gardens draw weary souls from the cities

At first a small group of seekers and artists

Trying to help the human spirit evolve

Dedicated to peace, love, and understanding above all

A kind of mythology to bring order in the flux of time

Passing from the old to the new — Humans exploring space

Within and without — The Milky Way galaxy of billions of stars

Calling to us — Changing how we live and work on this beautiful

Earth — Home to humanity and the beginning of language

The words and images we use to create, preserve, and change reality

Forest Approaching Dream Magic Mirror

Organization of Chaos: Journey from Darkness to Light (Version 1.1)

One — Falling from a great height, on purpose, for fun — With or without a parachute

People can survive — Humanity is always evolving — Magic has become science

We have the ability to fly and fall very slowly — Almost nothing is impossible

As it always was — Yet more people now have access to knowledge than ever before

Two — Four levels, four worlds, four dimensions — The expanse of time and the source

It is possible to go back and forth between — Both inside and outside our synthetic universe

Levels of consciousness, worlds of experience — The many ways of living in the cosmos

Song, mantra, storytelling — Old methods of rising to higher levels of awareness — Existence

Of the many aspects of the Multiverse beyond yet intricately linked and containing

The physical world we live in — The stars and galaxies we see every night in the sky

Above us always — It is not wise to anger the powerful here or elsewhere without reason

Especially the gods — There are many doorways from outside of our universe within

Care should be taken to choose the right doorway, the right pathway into our spacetime

Anyplace and anytime is available — But you want to be in the right place at the right time

The worlds and dimensions above and below the physical plane of existence connected

To the Source of chaos and order — The Twin Metaverses overlapping with our own universe

To form the Multiverse of all possibilities, all dimensions, all worlds, all forms of existence

From the cosmic interplay of Chaos and Order, our physical universe and world is formed

Three — I help build a forest sanctuary safe from beasts of men, animals, demons, gods

Those who would wish my community harm — A great house in the middle of the mountains

For friends and family to live and gather together, to stay and make plans, eat and laugh

To share what we know and feel, to make a better future away from the megacities, though

Not completely separate — Connected enough to make a positive influence in the development

Of Humanity — A new Culture — Beyond the limitations of fundamentalism and dogma

Four — Uniting to churn the ocean of chaos in a great undertaking of creation and order

Leviathans and other terrible horrors of the deep abyss exiled outside the boundaries of light

The temple of ancient secrets on earth — Home to the records of these heroic deeds of the past

The beginning of the universe — We wait here for millennia for good and true friends to arrive

The council of gods and demons must arbitrate the eternal dispute between the old and new

The forces of change and the forces of regression — Fundamentalism and progressivism

The ancient temple at the top of the hidden city of doorways must not fall into wrong hands

Guarded by the chosen ones of the Elder Races, gods and demons, and the Wizards of Light

The company of heroes and immortals for the benefit of humanity, as guardians and guides

The Perennial Philosophy — Helpers on the path of human evolution and initiation into

Mysteries of the cosmos — To fight against the influence of the chaos demons and Leviathans

The cosmic abyss outside our universe — To keep the balance between the Metaverses

Between higher and lower dimensions surrounding and encompassing our physical universe

And the planet Earth — Keeping us safe from those who wish us harm from beyond the abyss

Five — The council of gods and demons decide to leave the city of doorways, the temple

One of the many crossroads portals to other dimensions, worlds, times, planets from Earth

The Elder Ones leave behind the Wizards of Light to help humanity focus on evolution

To find higher realms of knowledge and wisdom — A few gods and demons also stay behind

To act as guides — Figures from the various great mythologies and religions of humanity

Keepers of the Perennial Philosophy of balance, order out of chaos, becoming amidst being

Six — I plant seeds in wooden containers behind my house — Sophia helps with the garden

Her beauty is a great comfort and adds to the pleasure of planting — She smiles sweetly

She is wearing a white shirt, yet the dirt seems not to stick no matter how much she digs

Her blue floral skirt blows in the cool early spring wind, and I am thankful for her presence

An integral part of of my efforts, not just in the garden but also in the new community

Her help in all things makes me very happy, and I cannot think of anyone I would rather

Have with me right now — Even if only for a short time, since she will have to leave soon

There is much work to be done in the megacities as well as in the mountain forest paradise

Our new home — And she will return I hope — For my home is her home, if she wants it

To be — Whenever she would like to visit or stay — Creating and growing the new Culture

Seven — Plan for the new community — Filling the vacuum left by the exodus of older people

Repurposed school buses for public transportation to the larger cities in every direction

A new library at the center of town — A new town hall where tourist attractions once were

Where weekly meetings of the young people decide the best course of action for the future

Outside the borders of the mountain forest community, humanity spreads out past the sun

The megacities provide all comforts and conveniences with the advent of a new golden age

Free, plentiful, and clean energy — An end to poverty, hunger, and inequality — Paradise

Of a sorts — Yet the old forest areas are even more necessary to preserve for the future

The national parks, now global parks, expand to include the border towns that once depended

On tourism to those areas — And the town of Hope, renamed, is one of the key places

Where a kind of utopia has and will continue to develop, in balance with the great Culture

A way for people who want adventure to spend time away from the bosom of the megacities

Not many people know of the existence of the secret temple and the hidden city of doorways

Nor that this is the location of the last few Elder Ones and the Wizards of Light on Earth

They are using this new community now within the boundaries of the global forest preserve

To help make a positive influence on the evolution of humanity through the young people

A place where the old magic of nature and balance can be kept as an example for the cities

Through the efforts of the Wizards and their followers — Guardians — Keepers of wisdom

Organization Pattern of Chaos

Forgive yourself for past mistakes and bad judgments you have made

Look to the future — Positivity is essential for the continuation of life

Without hope, how can any human being continue to live and learn?

Even if only a faint glimmer of light, almost completely hidden under

A veil of regrets, despair, sorrow — But it can be lifted, if only

For a little while, and life continues ever onwards — We are all stars

Players in our own games of love and life — Games that are not games

And the game of life that we all play together, whether we like it or not

Finding joy and happiness wherever and whenever we can, with who we can

Serving others in order to find what we are looking for — The meaning of life

Some kind of god or deity of the earth and sky and the universe of stars

Traveling and making new homes on faraway planets, in our dreams

One day we will look back on this time and see our old home earth

Still there, still here, for us, all of us no matter how low or high we may seem

No matter our mistakes and our triumphs — We will be glad to have known

This the first of many worlds, home planet for humanity, mother of us all

A work of art has value only if tremors of the future run through it. . -Andre Breton

‘As the president noted: “When middle-class families can no longer afford to buy the goods and services that businesses are selling, it drags down the entire economy from top to bottom. … that’s why a CEO like Henry Ford made it his mission to pay his workers enough so they could buy the cars they made.”

There are many other connections besides the demand case the president makes: a strong middle class is a prerequisite for robust entrepreneurship and innovation, a source of trust that makes business transactions more efficient, a bulwark against credit booms and busts, and a progenitor of virtuous, forward-looking behaviors, such as valuing education.’
