the great work

"Alchemy is the making of supernature from the human effect in the natural world"  |~ John Lamb Lash
http://gaiaspora.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Nav-Briefing-113-Addendum-The-Great-Work-02-March-2014.mp3
In this audio John talks about the Holy Grail and how it has come to be confused with the chalice cup of Christianity.  The Holy Grail is a mystical experience which is potentially available to all humans who truly seek it.

the global brain

Peter Russell's documentary postulates that through information technology, wisdom can build up much more swiftly amongst the populace than in ancient times, spearheading a shift in consciousness, the awareness that we are part of something greater and of our individual potential for expanding the frontiers of our minds.



Whether there is actually global brain or not, there is for sure an individual consciousness awareness  of the living planet that humans can potentially communicate with.  And although the industrial revolution removed us from close connection with the land it paved the way for the information revolution through the technology that came out of it.  Although humans have latent telepathic and other extraordinary abilities, we lost full access to these faculties long before then and information technology has been a useful crutch.  However much we despair of wifi and other electromagnetic radiation, there's no doubt that the internet is being used to disseminate deep and new insights into the human condition and make them available to all those who have ears to hear it, and this in itself could help facilitate a profound shift in the human state.

swan deva

Nairatmya, otherwise known as Swan Deva  'whose body is the sky' , the union of desire and emptiness, correlates to the constellation of the Fishes.  The first appearance of the sunrise crescent of the moon this month was in this part of the sky.


I have been remembering about investing every aspect of our lives in the dream, Her dream of humanity, rather than human behaviour as we see it now.  In feeling 'right' or 'on course' rather than being in a conceptual state of righteousness.  Righteousness, the idea that there is a right way of doing things, that we or others are wrong in the way we feel is anti-human, because feelings are our guidance system.  

How things 'should be' or how others 'should behave' is a made up reality, maybe the first virtual reality, subtly different to a vision of how beautiful things could become. It is so easy see the failings of other humans because we are all so vulnerable and, in the grand scheme of things, far from our true potential.  Easy, but possibly not  the most enjoyable or productive activity we can be filling our time with and possibly not fulfilling our highest desires. Attacking other humans indiscriminatingly  hurts our own feelings and damages our own lives because energetically we are so connected.  There are so many positive things we can do to improve our sense of well-being that we can share with each other too without even having to engage with the concept of 'should'. And we can protect from the negative impact of the forces that are truly against humanity as a whole more effectively from a sober standpoint where we are making allowances for other humans we are involved in because we understand the situation that faces us all. The real enemies, the forces that are getting in the way of humanity and our happiness are unfeeling, anti-feeling, these are the things that need to be moved out of the way so that we can engage with a story, a narrative that is favour of the life force and that feeling.  


barefoot on the tor


 And we did see the sunrise crescent!, unexpectedly on the way home, I love these unexpected views that we get when the sky clears in these cloudy islands. Occurred to me that so much of Celtic divination is plant and tree based because star divination became less of an option as the Celtic peoples who were deeply established in the mysteries moved into these parts of the world. The Celestics course can be found at http://www.metahistory.org/SkyLore/celesticsintro.php. You probably would probably want to familiarise yourself with much else on John Lash's www.metahistory.org website if you were pursuing this study as it would enrich the experience. We made this video on 3rd March.

kefir grains will travel



I just had this lovely message from  a lady who ordered our dehydrated kefir grains to go to Auroville in India:

'I thought that I would give you an update of the Kefir Grains that you
sent me.

"Well they have been so popular in the Ashram and Auroville. They are growing so fast in that environment - doubling every 2 or 3 days. Anyway as they do get a lot of visitors, the grains have reached Africa America and various parts of India. I found this quite incredible and i thought i might let you know. So Thank you from many people who have seen the benefits." '

Of course I was so happy and grateful to hear this.  And also very relieved to hear how well the dehydrated kefir grains travel and rejuvenate at their destination.  There is magic at work with this living culture.  Living culture is global, it's of the Earth and longing to propagate.

tropical fruits and a surreal day

We had a delivery from www.thaifoodshop.co.uk , young coconuts, mangosteen and longans.  Yummy and very fresh!  They also do durian and a host of other fruits and vegetables.  We are using the mangosteen rinds to make a new potion - so we had to eat the middles today :).  Eating this fruit is so evocative, feel wafted back to my soul's home.  A funny, slightly random, happy and upbeat day with surreal happenings and interesting chats.
Toucan Fruit also do a range of delicious and unusual exotic fruits, you can visit them here: www.toucanfruit.com/

our fermentation fetish workshop



making chocolate kefir cheesecake...
the final touch...
Our workshop went so well yesterday, we always get very appreciative feedback and this was a particularly fun day.  Here is what Chris Paradox, Vandita and Alan had to say afterwards, they really capture the mood of the event.




We feel this is a new generation of raw food, by fermenting gourmet raw food or using fermented foods to make the dishes, it is brought to life and becomes infinitely more digestible.

Next one is 22nd March.  Click here to find out more.
