Power is the capacity to shape reality. To make reality. To Be reality. To dance as God, with God, inside of God.

It melts the illusion of individuation.

Its chaos through and through. The storm passes through and batters down everything that has not the strength to stand. Kali, like mere anarchy, is unleashed, and meets the blood-dimmed tides of ignorance with new innocence, the forge of destruction transforming like alchemy the shards of the old into the seeds of tomorrow.

Things are falling apart. And only so can the new center emerge.

I have to laughingly admit that "quite soon" from my last post appears to have been particularly relative. Perhaps even relativistic.

In the time since my last post, a great deal has happened. Existence has been proceeding at what feels like light speeds. Experience and realization seem to be manifesting far faster than the "normal" frame of space-time would allow.

I have not yet, in the course of this blog, discussed to any great detail the nature of my own metaphysical practice. And a recent event and my response to it has given my impetus to share more about that with you, as a way of offering (hopefully) helpful perspective in your own metaphysical practices.

Death - letting go. Participating in an end, sometimes The End.

What does it mean to die your thousandth death?

Perhaps even one thousand in a single lifetime. I feel as though I have just left my own four digit death scene, leaving behind a someone whom I no longer could be - becoming as I am, continuing to Be by letting go of what no longer Could Be.

The Sacred on this world stems from the Power, the Medicine, of Nature. Nature's Power flows from Life. Life is the Sacred Dance that the flame, the spark of Consciousness, flickers for.

What is this Destruction you speak of?

I was asked this question by an beautiful soul regarding my last writing. And in receiving that question, I understood the need to clarify and explore it in greater depth. And so I have striven do so here.

Let us speak of needs.

Pulling away an old way to allow a new one is full of pain, shock and the failure of the means of the provision of needs. Food, medicine, water, shelter, natural systems - all of these enter states of risk when an entire Paradigm undergoes metamorphosis.
