I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
One of the most notable dynamics and patterns of nature, consciousness, evolution, and our own human experience, is that of often long periods of stasis, or stability, punctuated by periodic massive leaps to something often quite different. Yes, gradual or incremental adaptive changes do occur within each stasis phase, however the primary pattern remains intact. This is precisely what I have experienced in my own life over the course of years, especially when viewed from hindsight.
I've gone through many radical leaps in my life, and all were preceded by a time when not much seemed to be happening on the surface, yet with much building and shifting behind the scenes, and then once a certain threshold or trigger was reached, very rapid and often huge changes and shifts followed. This stasis-leap dynamic appears to be inherent in consciousness in general, and in its multitudinous manifestations in life and nature.
The main catalysts for such momentous evolutionary leaps seems to be some version of stressors, or distress (negative stress, as opposed to eustress, which is positive stress), that make it so that the prior stable pattern cannot continue. Once the point of maximum distress is reached, it's make or break; either disintegration and destruction, or a profound jump to some other way of being, ensues.
Aside from a few rather rare, anomalous blips of very different, next-level experiences, I've been in a fairly long stasis period in my life, though I can indeed feel the inner preceding shifts gaining momentum. A similar process has been occurring in the collective of humanity, which is coming to a head very soon, with a gigantic and unprecedented shift about to unfold.
While we can get some idea of what the next shift entails, both individually and collectively, through intuitive glimpses, inner insights, and prophecies from many times and cultures, in large part we won't know how things will really be until we actually make the leap, which requires a solid leap of faith, because for the new to be born, the old must fall away. Remaining calm, peaceful, centered, and focused as the world that I, and that we have known collapses, is our primary task now. Godspeed to us all.
Yesterday, Tuesday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, a little after 2PM, focusing first on straining and blending kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao) in the Landing, as the sun was not very cooperative for photography. Ano enlisted my help to put up a new inner tarp on the Beduoin, which took a fair bit longer than hoped. I finally peeled away, when I was no longer needed, to get to my other tasks, which were going to Tutu's to do the dry-goods order, and collecting a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible foliage (mostly Melochia leaves) for the next day's cow-milking food. I did get a few photos taken, at various points, for these posts, though not as many as I would have liked, which means that I need to get a few extra today. After I finished with cow food, I took a shower, then made myself some food (eggs, ground beef, onions, tomatoes, and sea salt) in the Landing, then I headed back to the Flow House around dark, to get into my evening round of Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done on Hive by a little after 11:30PM, and after some token management, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed just a little after 12:30AM, a bit later than I had intended. I woke up just after 7AM, still feeling like I needed some more sleep, doing another round of token management, starting on this post, catching up more on my notifications, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee, and to milk the cow with Jo. As soon as I finished with milking, I returned to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just after 12:30PM, so a great time to end this post, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to first focus on photography for these posts, and for my entry in the Shadow Hunters Contest, to collect cow food for tomorrow morning, and then to walk over to Lea's to help her with some clearing and pruning work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's expression of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2024 Life Goals
1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do.
2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness.
3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others.
4.) Dance regularly again.
5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process again.
6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.
7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.
9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth, care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships.
10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice.
11.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
