forrest craver ALTARS OF THE HOLY ONE

ALTARS OF THE HOLY ONE Milky breath of the buffalo On starry plains Fireflies dance in the night A woman groans with birth pangs Of transformation Tree people crucified Yet still they stand Flowers sing silent hallelujahs Kaleidoscopes of color and scent Tall grass prairie of our mother Whispers her lullabies Monarch butterflies traverse continents Going home, gathering in one tree An old nun kneels on earth Kisses a dying Calcutta slum child Mother Teresa sees Jesus looking back IntoContinue

forrest craver INVOCATION

INVOCATION

A miracle is the wholehearted invocation of the Divine, combined with suspension of all disbelief Allowing the Other World to Shatter and reconstitute this world. Through Invocation, the dead are raised and the blind see again. Invocation is how the multitudes of the hungry are fed and all good deeds come to full fruit. BrotContinue

Judith Taylor A Ball I dropped

I learnt today that I dropped a ball which should have been taken up by everyone. Instead only Anthony Turton and Mariette Liefferink dealt with it. Within the next few years, we are going to have water provided from plants being set up to recycle Acid Mine Water for drinking! A petition against this was signed by only 100 people. I was aware of the EIA, which in fact was only for the building of the pipelines and the plants, but not of the intended use for the product or that there was a petit… Continue

Aragorn Eloff The Declaration of Evolution - a piece by Timothy Leary

I found this great piece online the other day and thought it spoke volumes, even though it was written 40 years ago. I edited it a bit to make it more contemporary...here it is. "When in the course of organic evolution it becomes obvious that a mutational process is inevitably dissolving the physical and neurological bonds which connect the members of one generation to the past and inevitably directing them to assume among the species of Earth the separate and equal station to which the Laws… Continue

Aragorn Eloff Want to *really* make a difference? Go vegan!

What is veganism? Although almost all of us know what vegetarianism is, veganism remains far less well understood. In fact, the majority of people have trouble distinguishing between these two terms and even some self-professed vegetarians are unsure of the distinction! Once you start going into more detail, it gets even worse - there are lacto-vegetarians ('lacto' means 'milk', or more generally, 'dairy'), lacto-ovo-vegetarians (ovo means 'eggs'), 'strict' vegetarians, 'pure' vegetaria… Continue

Aragorn Eloff It ain't easy being green

Introduction Although the warnings of impending environmental catastrophe were hotly contended a few years ago (most tellingly by high-paid corporate lobby groups), few people now deny that many of the essential natural systems that sustain all life on Earth are threatened by human activity. Among countless other horrors, vast expanses of richly biodiverse Amazon rainforest have been decimated to make way for crops planted for biofuel and livestock feed, use of non-renewable energy reso… Continue

Roy de Vos New discovery of enzyme which controls memory

As an EFT practitioner I was fascinated to hear Dr Chris Smith of The Naked Scientists talk on Redi Direko's show on Cape Talk radio about a discovery which has been able to show that an enzyme (PKMzeta) controls the way we access memory. Basically, when we form an impression or memory, it is structured through the interlinking of neural synapses in the brain. These pathways are cemented by this enzyme, which will enable the brain to re-produce the impression when we wish to recall it. This app… Continue
