Fukushima - One Hell of a Mirror for Humanity

It is quite fascinating that all what is taking place is happening in the year of wooden horse. What is interesting about it is that element wood which represents tree with all the different characteristics and phases of the growth and life of the tree. It represents beginning, maturation and action. It represents the whole interdependence of the trunk, branches, leaves, seeds and roots. The life of tree is in the unseen roots. The leaves never dies. It is only the shallow shell that falls when the essence of the leaf returns to the roots so that it can emerge once again after the winter.

Growth is action but when understood negatively it represents anger and force. But as Taoists explained us, the growth of the tree is Wu-Wei, effortless/non-force such like every action that is in harmony with nature.

What is even more interesting is that it is said that Shakyamuni Buddha was born in the year of horse. Horse is very important in Tibetan and in fact in all mythology. The Tibetan player flags are called as lungta, windhorse. It is said that windhorse is the messenger that takes the prayers throughout the whole creation to benefit all beings.

2014 is a year of great potential and new beginnings. But growth is know of its pains. Perhaps it is the year 2014 when the birth pains begins. Just like a chick has to break through the Eastern egg, we have to break through the bubbles we have created.

The Hopi elders predicted the sea turning to black and it seems that this is really happening. There is no hope and frankly speaking there has never been such thing. Hope is something to be abandoned since it is clinging to something external. We do not need hope. It just blurs our clear sight.

People need to start to trust their instincts and intuition once again. The Sanskrit word *Upajna is translated as instinct, intuition. It is a inherent intelligent that we all have but which we are all suppressing by trying to rationalize everything. With intuition and clear wakefulness, one cuts through all the deceptions the thinking mind is offering to us. We do not need politics but actions, or should one say non-actions.

It is quite clear that the Fukushima is going to have a tremendous impact on the life on earth and that can not be revered. Instead of being depressed one can notice the inspiration and energy it is creating for us. Inspiration to finally dig deep within our own sense of being and start observe what actually is taking place. We have to face our fears. There is no other way. In fact it is the avoiding of the feeling of the fear what actually is fear. Just because fear is an awkward feeling, it does not mean it is bad or good. It is what it is just like everything else.

In order to be free, one has to abandon the ground one is protecting. Hope is obviously attached to some ground, just like fear is. And matter in fact it is hope that brings up the fear in us. The only way to become fearless is to remain totally groundless. Not even a little piece of that ground can be remained because there is no such thing as partial free. There is only imprisonment and freedom. But freedom is only a concept just like imprisonment is, but still when one contemplates on it, it is quite obvious that once there is nothing to be protected and sustained, the fear loses its meaning.

We all are groundless whether we like or not. We can not deny our true nature that is empty and without any ground what so ever. If we do not accept our hopelessness and groundlessness, it is not possible to be fearless and dispassionate. Even though term compassion is often used in translated Buddhism, it really has nothing to do with the sense of pity as we Westerners might think. In order to understand the real meaning of compassion one should study, contemplate and meditate upon it. True compassion is fearless and ruthless and has nothing to do with rational conceptualizing. The compassion of mother earth is an example of true compassion. It cuts through the bullshit quite ruthlessly and seemingly effortlessly. Wu-wei, non-force does not mean non-violence. It means not forcing or rejecting what is. It means effortlessness of growing and that is what all is doing. Growing effortlessly through the different phases of growth. It is just we who are unwilling to grow. I do not mean to growing to become something. More of growing to be what one already is. Growing to be empty.

Thanks a lot for the information from around the world.

While watching these videos I feel very upset about what is happening around us and the power of those people who doesn't want to inform the people about what is really going on. But also, the feeling of the unimportance of personal "little problems" grows up inside of me.I'm not afraid of what's coming up to all of us.But from time to time some kind of hopelessness fills me up more and more. I feel deeply inside that it is the "right way" to transform these feelings inside of me, but sometimes it's really hard not to feel the inner distortion. Isn't it our duty to inform people to question everything critical? Not as a preacher,but by being an exemplary role. It makes me really sad how inconsiderate people deal with people and the world. I want to do my own part, as I don't want to live my life in an unconscious way anymore.
The first step was to switch my food completely into vegan. Ironically, by a personal circumstance in my life where I've fallen into an unconscious state. Finally, it is always the experience that we make that lead us on a new path, isn't it?
Thank you for helping to find the path of consciousness with your indefatigable support so that people cannot longer close their eyes.

Hugs and love

I find it so weird that we can manipulate the elements to the point of splitting the atom; but using it to fuel our homes is like making a fire inside a wooden shack to heat yourself...
