this offering is devoted to the Fish Beings…

looking north over El Vado Reservoir in northern New Mexico…a scant 1.50 hours from Durango, Colorado.
Should one sincerely undertake (take-under) the Teachings of all the great spiritual paths of the world? It would become quickly apparent that there is within us an ocean of resolve, of power, of wisdom and compassion…

Evening Brahmamuhurti over El Vado.

The power of what CHrIst called the Kingdom of Heaven is the search for Enlightenment. Remember Noble Yogin; Enlightenment is not about OUR endless Joy….it is about transforming not only ourselves but the world around us.

my dad.
6:00 am outside our fishing lodge last Saturday.
a chain-smoking, one-fingered yogi of the endless Stalwart Warrior since he was 14; his Message lies not in his addictive self, rather in his immutable love for his family and the natural world…

finally, my Dad caught more fish than both of his sons and found his Chi once again here, closing in on 80 years old, up in these sacred pinon-studded, water infested high mountain lands of Northern New Mexico.
my dad still stands on his feet Serving at Wal-Mart garden shop in Rio Rancho, New Mexico from 5 am to 4 pm.
5-6 days per week.

Brazos cliffs (great moderate free climbing!) and Heron Lake in the foreground all within virga.
Little wonder why Yogi Christ was a fisherman.
Has there ever been a time when the clear use of this sacred power was more essential or more urgent?

the Ilg Clan men from L-R; me, my dad, and my younger brother, Craig.
we set the new season record at Heron Lake with 13 kokanee taken before 12 noon.
i had visualized success for my Dad especially, this trip was hugely important for him
to bond with his two sons.

Brahman smiled and Graced us with a bounty exceeding even
my visualizations. we ate our catch and these Precious Fish Beings which offered us their Give Away
were absolutely delicious…5 star delicious…and the POWER within their precious flesh was
AMAZING!

the state record for Lake Trout was taken here at Heron Lake; 34lbs!
Lake Trout in New Mexico! can you believe it?
for the best guide: Don Wofley

Has there ever been a time when it was more vital to understand the nature of this pure power and how to channel it and how to use it for the sake of the world?
i spent the rest of my day with my niece; Ella and nephew; Alazar. here, they show off the fossils which we found along the shores of this amazingly beautiful slice of New Mexico…
shots of an Anasazi replica pueblo my brother and Ella and Alazar made…like Chaco Canyon, the replica pueblo centered around Grandfather Sun’s appearance to the Brazos Cliffs. Craig is an architect in Albuquerque; thus the beautiful precision of the stonework…
