Embodied Awakening

エンボディド・アウェイクニング（EA）とは、あなたのエッセンスをフルに体現する生き方です。それはしっかりと地に足が付き，喜びに満ちあふれ，思いやり深く，他の誰でもない，真実のあなた自身を生きる、ということです。アウェイクニングとは，本当のあなたに目覚めることです。重要なことは、アウェイクニングは体現する必要があるということです。EAは、今ここでの現実で起こる、アウェイクニングです。それは、何となくではなく、手に取るようにしっかりと知覚できます。スピリチュアルな哲学ではありません。あなたの身体で感じることが出来ます。

昨年の11月、ファミリー・コンステレーションのエキスパートでもあり，私とルミの友人でもある、ベルツ・テルプストラ＆森岡ひさ子夫妻と、久しぶりに東京で会うチャンスがありました。私たちと同じように、トランスフォーメーションの分野で活躍する仲間たちと共に過ごす時間は、新しい発見に満ちていて、いつもとても楽しいです。

A couple of months ago, when in Tokyo. Rumi and I got to catch up with friends Bert and Hisako, who are experts in Family Constellations. Always a fun time and interesting to talk with fellow professionals.

Meditation is about learning to recognize our basic goodness in the immediacy of the present moment, and then nurturing this recognition until it seeps into the very core of our being.
— Mingyur Rinpoche

Ho! Mesmerized by the sheer variety of perceptions, which are like the illusory reflections of the moon in water,

Beings wander endlessly astray in samsara’s vicious cycle.

In order that they may find comfort and ease in the luminosity and all-pervading space of the true nature of their minds,

I generate the immeasurable love, compassion, joy and equanimity of the awakened mind, the heart of Bodhicitta.

Here's some classic (but tame) bioenergetics. Brilliant, and yet somehow primitive in the forcing of emotion. Don't think the bowtie approach would work for me.

“One thing I know with absolute certainty is that healing and teaching must be approached with love, humility, courage and power if they are to be effective. Healing and teaching must be done in the clear light of the deeper spiritual truths. Whenever a patient comes to me in need of healing, I am aware that the deepest need any person has is to find his or her way home, to the real self, the divine within. It doesn’t matter what the presenting complaint is. The deeper inner need is always the same. In opening the way into the real self, the divine within, patients heal themselves.”

- Dr. Barbara Brennan, Light Emerging, p. 53

Took a day trip up to Pacifica Graduate Institute in Montecito to see an exhibition of the artwork from Carl Jung's 'Red Book'. In this book Jung recorded his inner visions, dreams and waking fantasies in calligraphy and striking visual images. It is a catalog of his own inner transformations, which formed the basis for his published work. The Red Book was locked away in a vault in Switzerland for decades. It is only just recently that the Jung family decided to allow this masterwork to become public.

Having been influenced by Jung's writings from a young age, I was very excited to see these works, and they did not disappoint. Though essentially untrained as an artist, the power of Jung's inner life leapt off the pages. Each painting seemed as though a doorway to an another dimension.

In this image the ego prostrates itself before the God of Fire, in all it's purifying, destructive, creative and healing power.

I think it's time for me to dive into my own vortex of fire and creativity for a while.
