Connecting the Dots...

So it's August 1st 2009 and I'm in China at the Nine Dragons temple on Mt Wutai. Rare stone entrance arch. In the main shrine, there is a monk who smiles and after a moment; gestures that I should hit the brass bowl before me. After my modest tap' he gestures "Whack that sucker!" Wonderful Sound!
I locate Susan, give her a few yen for the red box, and tell her go ring the bell. Same monk, but another cleaning in the background. Susan gives the bell a whack but, then the second monk is gently, but; persistently pushing her down for the mandatory three bows. The first monk, is waving his hands No! No! and tries to back him off. Susan is fine, and we wander off.

We are outside, looking around, when the first monk approaches us and begins to speak to us in Mandarin. We had hired a car and guide for the day and at this point, she catches up and begins translating what the monk is saying.

We hear that the shrine only holds idols, but that there were 18 living Buddhas; of monks seen in two places, how the temples founder was dead for three years before his body started to decay, that it takes an advanced soul longer to leave the body; and about auras of white light that surround people.

I feel three things : One deep fascination and interest in what is being said; at the same moment a expanded sense of awareness of my immediate surroundings; and a sudden desire to get out of dodge. I experience a flash of vision and see myself standing face to face to the monk with my right hand on the his shoulder, and his on mine. Our foreheads are touching.

In July 2005, we take our first trip outside North America to travel through Europe with our son Michael and his wife Annette and grandchild Elizabeth. We rent a farmhouse in Sours for the first week near the Chartres Cathedral; the first of many cathedrals we visit. A total hayseed, I am overwhelmed by the construction, stained glass, and history of the cathedrals we see, but have a growing sense of unease and discomfort over the amount of resources that went into these buildings over time.

This feeling comes to a head, in Rome in St. Peter's Basilica, standing before the Dove and thinking how the Catholic Church consumed so many resources that could have been put to better use when inside my head I hear a firm voice : No! You idiot! They are wealth generators.

The day after we return from our trip, I lose my job. In January 2006, I have a heart attack while swimming. Three days in intensive care in Campbell River, followed by a overnight stay in Victoria, during which two stents are placed in my heart.

I decide to find another job and work until Susan retires. I go to work for the City of Campbell River in an airless glass room filled with challenging interpersonal energies; and while I do not have many direct problems, day-after-day, over time the situation begins to wear.
In August 2007 I learn that a leg pain that was diagnosed in 2001 as a ruptured plantaris tendon is in fact a blockage in my fermoral artery, that I have PAD. Tensions held under control can no longer be contained. My emotions become very difficult to control. The events combine with memories of past challenges in my life creating a growing sense of Déjà Vu. I have a feeling that the obstacles are going to continue to grow until I get the message. I quit my job in late October. I surrender, and in doing so abundance; always present, begins to flow into my life.

If what you believe is not working, then you had better start believing in something else.

Over the course of 2008, everything changes. I start meditating, practicing T’ai Chi; my reading habits change completely, I start growing pot and magic mushrooms. I begin to feel the need to join with some group and after trying a couple others, join the group meditation at Diane’s.

In group meditation, I begin to visualize cathedrals. Archetypes. The understanding that cathedrals are wealth generators, machines for talking to god based on sacred geometry, begins to grow. Details emerge : images of upwelling's of energy from cathedrals located around the planet creating great circle energetic ley-lines. Air ships travel along these lines transporting pilgrims, cargo while generating surplus energy and maintaining the health of the planet's atmosphere. I have read Science Fiction about never-landing airships; but the cathedral seems totally impossible. A huge hollow floating sphere made of interlocking stone inlaid with runes with a interior filled with cascading falling water, pathways and moss gardens located on a small hill above a city water tank. Somehow energetically linked to Dubai, one of the seven political territories of the United Arab Emirates.

Information begins to flow into my life via the Internet. I become interested in Thought Forms; read Alice Baily "A Treatise on White Magic. I meditate in action, listening to information for hour after hour.

I re-read James Redfield, and begin to review events in my life from a different perspective. While woodworking, meditating in action; and listening to Deepak Chopra the following formula presents itself:

Visualization plus Intent times Duration times Energy brings about a transformation in the Field.

I begin to wonder if I have had a world vision.

In January 2009, angioplasty is used to remove the blockage in my leg. The effect is immediate and dramatic. In a matter of days I am able to walk without pain and by June, I have extended my walks to the point where I am able to hike to Circlet Lake in Strathcona Park, a distance of well over 20 km. I lose weight and feel 15 years younger.

After returning from China, I am hiking up a mountain near Whistler with my son when my leg goes again. I am totally bummed out. I have planned to go to hike in Utah and attend a retreat to >>> hear Daniel Pinchbeck speak about his book “2012 The Return of the Quetzalcoatl”. Graham Hancock and Lisa Renee are also scheduled to speak.
I arrive a day early and slowly make my way up the hill behind the main cabin. On the hilltop, I can see that I am on the center hill of three small hills forming two merging valley's. I begin to sense energy flowing down the valley's and felt that the hill I am standing on is strongly grounded. Caught up in the sensation I throw myself into a Vitruvian Man pose while visualizing the axis mundi and take dominion over the space. A energy field slams down over the entire property, within which I know that I am totally safe.

Pinchbeck has changed his schedule to speak at the opening of the 2012 Horror Doomsday Movie. I can’t go on group day hikes because of my leg and feel isolated. I begin to think about sacred geometry and invent symbols for energy transformations related to a realm of nothing and a realm of not nothing.
Hancock speaks about his exhaustive meticulous lifelong research into past civilizations, but with growing passion concerning his experiences with Ayahuasca. Lisa Renee is such an animated speaker that afterwards I approach her and ask her if she is projecting energy with her hands. Her fans; seem to cluster around her in a most unusual way. Pinchbeck arrives, and proves to be a incredibly well informed and reasoned correspondent of 2012 phenomena. Uncharacteristically, I stand and ask the group to consider what the world would be like; if the moment we were in; was the moment of transformation; and we, were the agents of transformation. It is as if a ripple goes through the room. Pinchbeck deflects the energy, and the moment passes.

On the last night of the retreat, after hours around a campfire, someone asks me for the second time: “I know, but why do they call it sacred geometry?” A light comes on. Just as my body is composed of cells that are aware of and respond to my needs and desires, I realize that my consciousness is built upon and supported by of a foundation of distinct mental archetypes symbolized by avatars of RA, Thoth, Set, Buddha; joined together in a geometric pattern.

So here I am tonight March 11, 2010 working on rebuilding my porch. The deck design incorporates sacred geometry and transcendental numbers. 6x6 cedar posts form the framework of the trellis supporting an existing White Wisteria representing the fractual nature of the universe, forming at the same time; a 8x8x8 cube of space, a rectangle based on the golden ratio, and a canopy of blue, green, and brown life.

Under the decking, copper wires will be laid out in the form of the Star of David, Mer-Ka-bah’s at the centre of which lies an axis of zinc with a heart of pure silver (I think) coins from China.

At one end of the deck, there will be a lean-to with partial walls topped with stained glass, covered by a glass roof. The light from the sunset will illuminate the panels from behind.

The stained glass panels are the current focus of my attention. Initially the panels were just part of the porch, with initial drafts designed on a computer; but the physical process of drafting the design brought different elements into focus as I meditated.

In the image below, there are five great circles, three in the foreground and two in the background. These can be said to exist at different energy levels. Ying / Yang symbols have been highlighted in the three great circles, which at the same time brings a frequency into focus running through the centre of the image. A slight shift in attention allows a larger frequency to come into focus which allows the eye to return to the centre, concentric circles and flowers of life. Finely notice how three petals appear to combine from the background into the foreground to form the large flower of life.

This pattern developed along the horizontal axis is in the static position.
Rotating the image or developing the pattern vertically develops the pattern dynamically and permits one to explore Metatron’s Cube. It is said the the five platonic solids may be drawn within this design.
While considering all this; what started out to be three panels became a series of five panels, two expressing the evolution of the horizontal pattern, two the evolution of the vertical pattern and a final panel integrating the two aspects.
The series of images built of stained glass, lead, copper foil, different textures and highlights and viewed orientated to capture the light of the setting sun will combine into a single image within in the mind of the beholder.
The plan is to send out each panel, after it spends some time as a part of my porch.
Visualize the axis mundi as a three dimensional grid with Absolute Zero being at the intersection of the three axis (0,0,0).
Mentally stand back from this image; Contemplate the framework picturing a bright point in the center. Imagine holding this framework and point of light within the palm of your hand.
Know that the object of your desire exists at a location within this framework. Enter absolute zero and seek the location of your desire creating a line of attraction to that location.
The story, you have just read, is the pre-requsite to how the dots might be connected to create a transformational process leading to a “reintregration at a higher state of consciousness” with the “soul of the earth”.
