Alan Watts – Don’t Worry, Don’t Panic! None of This Really Matters Much

Alan Wilson Watts (6 January 1915 – 16 November 1973) was a British-born philosopher, writer, and speaker, best known as an interpreter and populariser of Eastern philosophy for a Western audience. Born in Chislehurst, England, he moved to the United States in 1938 and began Zen training in New York. Pursuing a career, he attended Seabury-Western Theological Seminary, where he received a master’s degree in theology. Watts became an Episcopal priest in 1945, then left the ministry in 1950 and moved to California, where he joined the faculty of the American Academy of Asian Studies.

Watts gained a large following in the San Francisco Bay Area while working as a volunteer programmer at KPFA, a Pacifica Radio station in Berkeley. Watts wrote more than 25 books and articles on subjects important to Eastern and Western religion, introducing the then-burgeoning youth culture to The Way of Zen (1957), one of the first bestselling books on Buddhism. In Psychotherapy East and West (1961), Watts proposed that Buddhism could be thought of as a form of psychotherapy and not a religion. He also explored human consciousness, in the essay “The New Alchemy” (1958), and in the book The Joyous Cosmology (1962).

Towards the end of his life, he divided his time between a houseboat in Sausalito and a cabin on Mount Tamalpais. His legacy has been kept alive by his son, Mark Watts, and many of his recorded talks and lectures are available on the Internet. According to the critic Erik Davis, his “writings and recorded talks still shimmer with a profound and galvanizing lucidity.”

Lakota Prayer

EVOKING

Great Mystery,
teach me how to trust
my heart,
my mind,
my intuition,
my inner knowing,
the senses of my body,
the blessings of my spirit.
Teach me to trust these things
so that I may enter my Sacred Space
and love beyond my fear,
and thus Walk in Balance
with the passing of each glorious Sun.

According to certain tribes, the Sacred Space is the space between exhalation and inhalation. To Walk in Balance is to have Heaven (spirituality) and Earth (physicality) in Harmony.

At the core of this timeless wisdom is the word “trust”. When did we stop trusting ourselves? When did we start giving that trust, that power, away?

In many ways the spirit path is a process of reestablishing that trust with the infinite that resides within us, just waiting to be activated.

AHO!

What’s Bubbling UP?
Scorpionic Pond Photo by Melanie, Nov 2015

You probably feel it deeply, and have been exposed to the Medicine that the SCO New Moon, in resonant connection (Water trine) with CHIRON retro in PI facilitates:

This is the time to dive deeper into the undercurrents of ‘what bothers us’, and lies like underwater dragons in our subconscious – often buried, suppressed material that we wouldn’t approach voluntarily (it’s usually our ego that is scared as hell).

What do we meet when we go into this ‘sticky underworld’? (Often old) feelings that hold us hostage and ‘in the dark’: jealousy, resentment, vengefulness – those feelings that turn against us and keep us separate, turn into shame and blame, and that we only covertly show to the world, while they fester and suck our energy. We beat ourselves up and go into self-sabotage.

You get the idea – we…

New Moon in Scorpio….. Diwali Festival of Lights

Julian Horack Jasomatinandan Das's avatarInsights

Wednesday 11 November marks the annual New Moon festival of Diwali, where Hindus around the world light lamps to show the way home for the returning King Rama and his entourage of Lady Sita, Prince Lakshmana and head of the troops Lieutenant Hanuman. With the dark moon night leaving the moon conspicuous by its absence, the lamps brightly allow us to invoke the light by dispelling the darkness in our lives.

Rama is of course our own Vishnu avatara, alternative incarnation of Krishna, appearing millions of years ago with a green comlexion and becoming known as the ieal king, ruler or leader or his people. From this dynasty we get the term “Rama Rajaya” – a time of perfected rulership and idyllic utopian society. We all pray that India’s BJP, Congress Party and others will introduce such an administarative rule once again, under Prime Minister Modi. More than that we…

ELEVEN ELEVEN

Christine DeLorey's avatarCREATIVE NUMEROLOGY ARCHIVE by Christine DeLorey

111111:11 has been constantly ‘appearing’ to people, all over the world, since the 1990s and the onset of the new millennium – and there is great meaning to this symbol. Our senses are opening to the central role that numbers play in our lives, and the further we move into the 2000s, the more our attention is drawn to the power of numeric energy. This, after all, is the ‘digital age’. And yet, despite all our number-based technology, we are only just beginning to understand the deeper meaning of “1 plus 1 equals 2”.

The 11th month of the year always increases our potential for personal and collective growth. 11 not only helps us to evolve, but actually symbolizes the step-by-step nature of evolution. (1+1=2 = moving forward).

11 occurs everywhere, all the time, but it is in the 11th month of any year that it becomes…

Don’t eat Dungeness crab, California health department warns – SFGate

The California Department of Public Health is warning that potentially deadly levels of domoic acid have been found in Dungeness crab and rock crab caught along the coastline between Oregon and the southern border of Santa Barbara County. “Delaying or closing the season is disappointing,” said Craig Shuman, marine regional manager of the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, which sets the dates for the season. On the mild side, toxic crabs can cause vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps and headache, according to public health officials who say the symptoms can persist for days. Short of that, the poisoning can also lead to permanent short-term memory loss, coma, seizures and other symptoms. The 600-boat commercial crabbing season is scheduled to begin Nov. 15, and crabbers have been pouring into the Bay Area from Alaska, Oregon and Washington hoping to earn half their annual income. “It’s going to be devastating” for the crabbers whose livelihood depends on this crucial time of the year, said Mike Dvorak, captain of the High Seas, a vessel big enough to collect 20,000 pounds of varied seafood in a single haul. Boat owners believe this summer’s warmer coastal water — 60-plus degrees on average, instead of the typical 54 degrees — is behind the toxic bloom. Health officials say symptoms of poisoning can appear up to 24 hours after someone has eaten toxic seafood, though no illnesses have been reported.
