Sustaining Life


Life has its own self-sustaining mechanisms built into place to ensure its very survival.  

That's what seeds are.  

That's why we are paying so much attention to the Earth, and the environment, and our own survival as a human species suddenly...  You can see it in the stories emerging today.  Go see Wall-E.  It's a beautiful, artistic, poetic seed.

What we are actually doing is recycling our consciousness.  Recycling:  a material returning to a previous stage in a cyclic process.  We are going back to the beginning of the story.  Some primal instinct of survival in us takes just a fragment of our collective awareness back to the beginning when there was no separation between earth and man.  No separation between God and man.  Thus, we are once again returning to the point at which we cared a little bit more about our home.  "Home" a symbol representing the place where there is no separation ...of anything... from anything else... and everything is whole.  Home, Mother and Earth are synonymous.  All of these are symbols, or metaphors for a lack of separation, and the peace found within those moments that feel like "our home, Mother Earth" that we all long for.
