The Symposium of Plato
In this colloquium on the nature of companionship, Plato proposed a theory of the origin of humanity in which Zeus created three genders: men, women and androgynes. The androgynes were split into two and since then each half has been searching for the other. This is actually not an unusual creation story.

Chakras

Chakras

Chakra means Wheel in Sanskrit.
Consciousness and energy move from one
frequency to another in spiraling fashion.

The body has energy centers that look like
spinning wheels and are called Chakras.
They allow energy to flow from
one part of the body to another.

As with all things in our reality,
they are linked to sound, light and color.

To heal, is to bring the chakras into alignment and balance

then understand the nature of creation and your purpose in it.

It's all in motion in the alchemy of time.

BAMBOO and 3 Simple Life Lessons

Bamboo & You:

Three Simple Solutions to Any Life Problem

June 20, 2011 By greensky

Lessons from Bamboo..

I believe all of nature speaks loudly the lessons we most need to know, but the unique attributes of beautiful Bamboo resonate especially clear the life lessons we most need to hear to live a happy life.

Widely know as a symbol of good luck, a Bamboo plant with “three stalks is considered good for happiness, five for health, two for love, eight for wealth, nine stalks for overall goodness and prosperity in the owner’s life.” Not so widely known is the fact Bamboo is one of the strongest and fastest growing plants on Earth. Bamboo is used in a wide variety of venues such as; food, medicine, construction, paper, fabric, furniture and even music. Want to get solutions to your problems? 

Be like Bamboo and live a happy life. Here’s why…

1. Be Open to Be Strong

Don’t let the hollow tubing in Bamboo deceive you.
What you think may appear weak, is actually strong.
The open cylinders characteristic of bamboo are solid vehicles to transport water
in irrigation systems, surviving tough winters and the hottest of summers.

To receive a new of thinking, being, and doing, we have to be open to receive
like the hollow channels characteristic in bamboo.

Only when we are open to receive, can we be a channel to transport wisdom,
knowledge and love. In the the openness of bamboo, there is also strength.

2. Be Flexible in Storms

Bamboo is often the only thing left in tact even after the highest winds of a typhoon.
The tall stalks move with the wind, not against it. The bamboo trunk will sway
and bend with the wind, while its roots remain firmly rooted in the ground.
It bends, but does not break.
When storms come towards you in life, and they always will,
lean with the process, not against it.
“What can I learn from this problem, discomfort or difficultly?”
There is always something good which can come out of something bad
if we stay firmly rooted in the solid values which give purpose to our unique existence.

 

 

3. Be an Instrument of Healing

While the Bamboo flute is known to make some of the most lovely music, it is rarely recognized for its medicinal properties in healing the ills of the body or mind. Bamboo as a medicine “is especially used for the disorder of hot phlegm that coatsor obstructs the “orifices of the heart,” affecting the brain functions.Thus, it is used for epilepsy, fainting and loss of consciousness in feverish diseases,and a variety of mental disorders.”

Unsuspecting, Bamboo is a source for successful solutions to a wide variety of problems and needs.
There is no part of the Bamboo which is wasted, it is all good.

“The bamboo in its simplicity expresses its usefulness. Man should do the same.”
Aikido master Kensho Furuya
