Sacred

 


Shashoq is Aghast at The World.

Porcupine’s invitation “Will you come join us?”

is a wind that crashes through the canyon walls,

a gale that picks up all debris – feathers, leaves, dust… and trails off

The canyons reverberate with a full throated “No”,

The first and core Attachment - “to remain untouched” -

the World requires a binding that can only mean pain

 

  • Porcupine vibrates with Beaver and Stoat at a frequency that creates an expansive force called the Magnetosphere. No ill will here, but one that lacks any agency whatsoever. As an echo more than a tangible being, Shashoq reverberates as an ascendant presence to all.

    Meerkat learns with the help of Snow Leopard and Shrew to voice Shashoq’s one companion, The World. As Oscillator to their conversation, there are signs here of an approaching texture. A yes and no -ness that provides focus and direction. As loud as a storm while soft as a whisper – trailing off – both ahead and behind. “through here, through here, through here” calls the Oscillator.

    The Quest of the Alchemists’ Crucible is a performance this rudimentary tension.

    “Why be in Your Body?”

    “Why know what you know?”

    “Why say what You Say?”

    Question this until you do not question this.

Level two Quest of The crucible: Instincts Resolved

 

  “How I say No to The World.”

There is a hallowed place within that is resolved of all instinctual forces. A place of echoes falling away into a native nothingness. Focus on this pull toward the negation of Tels within. (Click on the View Tels link above for descriptions of the resolved Tels.)

Which Tel of the Gut can you hear in the tone of your voice as you express that feeling?

What postures and gestures are takin place, indicating the level of fear in your Head?

What does your resonance with your present environment convey about the Tels of your Heart?

Notice and empathize with the dissolution of TELs in and around you as you explore states of Contentment, Relief, and Realization.

 

  • Many seek the comforts of being in the flow of feeling; to harbor radical acceptance of the living instincts of an embodied existence. We wish to inhabit an open sensitivity of the heart, the purified desires of the gut, and a mind enticed fully in states of awe.

    Few recognize that such acceptance is but one part of an entire framework of stances to take with the feeling realm. And, at the base of the framework, lies a point of No Feeling, No sensation, No thought.

    The Quest of the Crucible reenacts a performance of this rudimentary tension - between the muchness of our reactions to this World, and the nothingness of the resolved state.

    “Why be in Your Body?”

    “Why know what you know?”

    “Why say what You Say?”

    Question this until you do not question this.
