yet on days like today when it’s time for a final farewell to the OM-sounds from chairlifts
servicing such puja as these sacred snows?
it’s all Go(o)d baby…
it’s all God…
get out and do…
the Bardo comes quicker than we think…
and what a precious Plane(t)
we have to immerse within…
Conscious Parenting…
1) Let Go Of Everything (you want)
2) Drop Into Everything (she wants)
3) Know that you are burning off selfish Karma by losing money, losing sense of (egoic) self, losing your mind, losing every-thing, while gaining that which is most imperative: another Soul’s nurturing by your devoted Presence…no matter what…
so, when the chronic crush of negativity, aggression, and turbulent emotions arise in what my ego self calls, “the mediocrity of Fatherhood,” ilg HAS TO use Mindfulness as my go-to Protector for not creating more black karma
Any being who aspires to Rise Higher…
and stays steadfast, determined, and focused
shall attain the siddhis..the yogic powers which bring individuated inSight
calibrated by the Divine
to keep our Awakening and our Enlightenment potentiation on track…
“But Daaaaady…I NEED to take a picture of the Full Worm Moon, too you know…puh LEASE!!!?!”
i glanced at Amma in the short-handed visual eye communication which new parents use to circumvent the treasured milliseconds which are needed to make critical decisions ranging in everything from allowing our chi-ld to interrupt mealtime to take a picture of a beautiful moonrise to whether or not we should buy a new car (true story)…
i dunno… at this Blessed Point in my current incarnation? finishing Silver Medalist to Travis Brown, Olympic Mountain Biking and Nordic Champion is just a little waaaaay too much for feeble broken back, former paralytic ilg to even connect the Dots…let alone the fact that my new Daddy Duties and lingering 80% head congestion has completely destroyed any type of optimal prep for the brutally delicious 10k nordic slugfest today at the 9,000′ Durango Nordic venue…chalk it up to…
ilg admits; it’s been the steepest headwall i’ve ever attempted to climb
yet, thanks to my Practice begotten from my Teachers…your Teachers..our Teachers…of this
amazing Precious Path of WF?
my Essential Nature of Mind is only intensifying through the difficulty…not diminishing…
how doth the saying go?
“The interruptions ARE the Practice!”
Being threatened to vaccinate your child? Besides being a cOMplete lack of Divine Faith, succumbing your chi-ld to the pressures of vaccination rips through the physiologic vulnerability of your chi-ld’s cells (which parents are supposed to protect) causing a rampage of endocrine, immune, and God knows what other wholesale manslaughter upon the psycho/spiritual Level.
Even in the hippie-influenced, progressive, and open-minded bubbles like Flagstaff and Durango where our still-unvaccinated and surreally-healthly Dewa has spent her 4 years thus far, Ananda and i can only imagine what it must be like for some of you Conscious Parents when you want to take a stand and stop the insane influx of multiple toxic chemicals and their karmic/samskaric reverberations shot into your Precious, Pure and Wholistically Healthy infant and toddler and pre-schooler…
So, take a look at this…
