Whilst we experience, the decolonization of normalcy.
Stop selling me shit and pretending you have the key to satisfaction. Idiot happiness is not a real thing. Living a joyful life, is an everyday and attainable goal.
This is the time of change, but more importantly it is really a time of transformation. You might say they are the same phenomena, but transformation is an alchemical process. Where you change into something different, not a shift from one form of energy to another.
This is a big difference between the elements in Chinese medicine and the Spirits. The Spirits are concerned with the ephemeral, the not concrete stuff. This is the year of the Wood Snake, shed the skin and become something new.
I think there are many elements and stages to transformation, as I see it, you know yourself and be yourself first. Then you can move towards a transformative state. There has to be some kind of consistent practice, there is a price to pay for the transformation of the pedester.
Stay Light and Stay Bright.
When most of the conditioning around us is trying to dim your light, this is easier said than done. The brightest ones are usually targeted somehow, the people that have the darkness in them want to kill the brightness.
We are fundamentally afraid of change, terrified of transformation. We would rather stay stuck in a rut of violence and chaos than willingly adapt our ways.
The younger generations are going to be better at this than us old people.
My mind always turns to tasks and the solutions.
Dark and the light, the themes.
I have come to a couple concrete thoughts, the love is definitely the way through, if that is possible, to staying loving while everything around you is functioning from a hateful place.
In all of history it seems that love was conquered by hate over and again, but love prevails anyway and always. That means it can stand the test of time and the hate just burns out in violence.
A project of love that is what i am going to take from Teresa’s death. carry the light, make love the project. I do not have to be ashamed. I think once the love can be stronger than the shame, that is where the shift occurs. The false narrative, the spell that was cast by the authoritarian, disintegrates.
We see it happening in real time, now on the public stage.
You can do anything with your life, in your death process you will have to face your choices. I think about that a lot. Which side of history to I want to be on, what is the total sum of my life going to represent?
I think this is the plan that will win in the end. It will come sooner if we all work towards a common goal.
Bernie had a mystical experience on the river Yamuna in India when he was probably 27 years old. I found a letter that he had written to my aunt around that time that describes a spiritual awakening he had.
“dark then light, then dark then light.” B.K
When I was born, Bernie wanted to give me the name Yamuna. It was bestowed as my middle name, thankfully.
Jipala was Hilda’s idea.
A weird name, that no one can say or remember, I was raised in a sea of Jennifers, Amys and Marys.
Not a name that has grown in popularity over the years, just my strange name.
Jipala Yamuna, freak, odd one, stranger.
As I get older, I feel that my clarity is heightening, I have learned so much about people and their patterns. I can comfortably say the enactment of Normal is a false cage, that only people of a certain financial bracket can pretend to have.
Everyone else, is pretty much just struggling to keep their head a float. For them, there are not enough resources left, to allot to maintaining normalcy. A lot of people just fake it for other’s sake, or exist in a state of disassociation and shame.
I would like everyone to know that most people are totally fucked up and that is what we might spend our time normalizing. Once we can see that , we can work from there to build a healthy community. You can’t even begin to create health if there is not accountability for owning and accepting difference,
I used to think that if i was a good enough person and did the right thing. I would get noticed as such and given accolades. I know now that the opposite is true. People want other people to be good so they can take advantage and they want them to stay small so selfishly they do not have to do any work on themselves. It is a win for them, and a great loss for the other people involved.
As the small become strong and use their presence in the act of love, the liars that are pretending to have the power will fall apart.
It is the spiritual crisis of our time. If we can support the negentropy of normalcy with a loving rhetoric then seeds will grow healthier and faster. If we stand around letting this happen in some kind of dumb shock then it will happen more slowly, if we resist entirely then the vessel will implode.
