“Hail Rahu”
What do the people want?
MORE!
…or less.
I am pulled in all directions,
from all directions
in a moment before I forget: God.
Whilst in my repeated contemplations of the Gita, I wonder how else I may meld its teachings into my soul.
On Monday, I was bent out of shape and trying to figure out why. In the afternoon, I turned back on the recording of this sacred text and was reminded by Lord Krishna, “You have a right to your actions, but never to your actions fruits.” Once again I had caused my own suffering through a desire and expectation!
How many disappointments have I experienced simply by my own expectations or perceptions? Is there anything that is not from the mind?
When I think about suffering and world-wide matters, I wonder what is within my pay grade? How can I bring balance to my own life and home? Is my own “house” in order? This is a major theme of The Metaphysics of Good Vibrations - turning within, not as a means of navel gazing but as a means to peel away perceptions and simply remember Who I Am.
Last week I realized, while floating in my mother’s pool and listening to the audio book of Autobiography of a Yogi that I was giving away my most valuable gift: my perception. As an ever-aspiring mystic, yogi, magician, what-have-you, my perception, concentration and focus is of the utmost importance for Divine Realization. I tried to find balance for 5 years, but all I was doing was...

I wrote The Metaphysics of Good Vibrations between 2020-2022 after completing the Rite of Abramelin, which is a special initiation that commits one’s life to a magical path of service. During this Rite, I received what is called, Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel, which is just as esoteric as it sounds. After completing the Rite, my life was turned upside down and the rug pulled out from under me. In this process, I wrote The Metaphysics of Good Vibrations.

The artificial flowers blow by
like dandelion seeds wished by a graveyard.
Hustle

Gd be with me
while I usher
herein the new world,
a crumbling pillar
while we change our gods
and lose our focus,
lose our anchor.
I recently did a tarot reading to inquire the intention of these particularly rough West Texas winds we’ve been experiencing over the past few months. Though the cotton blowing in my back door seems to have softened the landscape, what I found in the reading was particularly interesting: The winds were sweeping in to bring balance.

When asked recently why Easter is my third favorite holiday and Christmas my fourth, I replied, “It’s the vernal freshness, the physical exemplification of renewal.”
We say the sun is reborn on the solstice, slowly stretching a few extra rays of light in the darkest of nights until we behold: blossoms.
I started to notice petite purple flowers beginning to bloom as I walked my new deaf puppy Trixie in February. After the Pisces new moon on March 10th, the white flowers were apparent and the yellow too, as if they’d been there all along just waiting for me to notice.
