yes, brothers and sisters of the boundless sky sea
this new moon draws us down into deepest inquiry
for us to listen to whom we are to be
children of venus, of love eternally…
buoyantly floating in equanimity
painting peace across great mystery
listening to the ancestors’ wisdom
aligned with source tuned into the hum…
om shanti shanti shanti om
we are one being walking home
opening to live and let be
caged bird now set free…

take a moment to seed intentions in the open field of right relationship grounded in the first people’s precepts…
- Speak only words of truth.
- Speak only of the good qualities of others.
- Be a confidant and carry no tales.
- Turn aside the veil of anger to release the beauty inherent in all.
- Waste not the bounty, and want not.
- Honor the light in all. Compare nothing; see all for its suchness.
- Respect all life; cut away the ignorance from one’s own heart.
- Neither kill nor harbor thoughts of an angry nature, which destroy peace like an arrow.
- Do it now; if you see what needs doing, do it.
Ven. Dhyani Ywahoo, Voices of Our Ancestors, pp 20-21
may we put our ears to the earth to hear the song of rebirth filling every cell with mirth…
om shanti shanti om
