water is life

welcome, well come to day 52 of a season of peace which synchronisticly falls on world water day calling me to totally be a body of water of life… let’s all take this moment, this breath to reset and to celebrate ourselves as bodies of water = we are the eternal radiance, astonishing lights of beingness made to flow into impermanence, uncertainty and the unknown as (w)hol(l)y seaworthy vessels…

UN World Water Day is a part of a worldwide mission to ensure everyone has access to safe drinking water with many in the world not having access to one of our most valuable natural resources…

in many areas around the world, taps, pipes and wells simply don’t exist and if they do they’re not affordable for many people which means drinking dirty water is the only option with dirty water being responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths each year…

we, like all other bodies of water, can change course and follow a sustainable direction by first believing we can and next acting on the belief with action by loving our waters for they are our mother, our ancestors and are the web weaving all our relatives into an amazing tapestry… we have a duty of care to protect and nurture our grandmothers and grandfathers and mothers and fathers and children who give us life…

let us all in this moment of eternity to breathe deeply together, yes, conspire and envision and answer the urgent call to action for a world where everyone drinks freely and safely of our life giving relative, water, instead of the present figure of only .01% of water being potable… here’s a first step whenever using this sacred elixir…

 Prayer When Drinking Water

“As I receive this water and it flows through me,
May it become medicine dispelling all ills,
May it become medicine revealing the wisdom within and through out.
I offer apology for any harm done through wrong speech & action

As this water flows through me and becomes vapor,
May it purify the atmosphere
May it nourish the wisdom potential in the people
I offer apology for any harm done through wrong speech & action

As this water flows through me, and returns to the water table
May it remove the impurities of chemicals placed within the water
May the water be made new again
May this water become medicine for all beings in this and all worlds

Poetic Peace Pilgrimage – Year 8 – Day 96 – 3/22/2021

welcome, welcome to day 52 of a season of peace and to World water day, when we celebrate a day of honoring and blessing water all the while knowing everyday is truly a blessing water day, water is the innernet connecting us all, the more blessings of peace, love and harmony we pour into water, the more peaceful, loving and harmonious life is… for this moment of eternity, our rainbow serpent transmutes into a rainbow devotee chanting…

thousandfold thanks for our joining hands across the cosmos in sacred honoring… thousandfold thanks, water, for giving us life and blessing our earth walks… standing before you, we re-member we are water, we are the ocean in a drop… may our one heart be purified more than ever before for the benefit of all as we drink you into our being and as water reciprocates in the next breath by blessing us and generously bestowing pure water spirits throughout the web of life… water is a mirror for us as well as perfectly mirroring us… water responds in perfect harmony to the messages we send; the more beautiful our transmission, the more beautifully water creates all that is..

In Praise of Water

Let us bless the grace of water:

The imagination of the primeval ocean
Where the first forms of life stirred
And emerged to dress the vacant earth
With warm quilts of color.

The well whose liquid root worked
Through the long night of clay,
Trusting ahead of itself openings
That would yet yield to its yearning
Until at last it arises in the desire of light
To discover the pure quiver of itself
Flowing crystal clear and free
Through delighted emptiness.

The courage of a river to continue belief
In the slow fall of ground,
Always falling farther
Toward the unseen ocean.

The river does what words would love,
Keeping its appearance
By insisting on disappearance;
Its only life surrendered
To the event of pilgrimage,
Carrying the origin to the end,

Seldom pushing or straining,
Keeping itself to itself
Everywhere all along its flow,
All at one with its sinuous mind,
An utter rhythm, never awkward,
It continues to swirl
Through all unlikeness,
With elegance:
A ceaseless traverse of presence
Soothing on each side
The stilled fields,
Sounding out its journey,
Raising up a buried music
Where the silence of time
Becomes almost audible.

Tides stirred by the eros of the moon
Draw from that permanent restlessness
Perfect waves that languidly rise
And pleat in gradual forms of aquamarine
To offer every last tear of delight
At the altar of stillness inland.

And the rain in the night, driven
By the loneliness of the wind
To perforate the darkness,
As though some air pocket might open
To release the perfume of the lost day
And salvage some memory
From its forsaken turbulence

And drop its weight of longing
Into the earth, and anchor.

Let us bless the humility of water,
Always willing to take the shape
Of whatever otherness holds it,

The buoyancy of water
Stronger than the deadening,
Downward drag of gravity,
The innocence of water,
Flowing forth, without thought
Of what awaits it,
The refreshment of water,
Dissolving the crystals of thirst.

Water: voice of grief,
Cry of love,
In the flowing tear.

Water: vehicle and idiom
Of all the inner voyaging
That keeps us alive.

Blessed be water,
Our first mother.

Poetic PEACE Pilgrimage – Year 6 – Day 96 – 3/22/2019

Named Magical March 22 World Water Day

welcome, welcome to day 52 of a season of peace which synchronisticly falls on world water day and even more synchronisticly, the day source calls me to re-treat into the stillpoint of creation and swim in the timeless zone’s waters of life womb… as i take a break in the 11th hour to leap out of the deep waters, let’s take this moment, this breath to celebrate water…

UN World Water Day on March 22 is a part of a worldwide mission to ensure everyone has access to safe drinking water. Right now, many of the world’s poorest do not have access to one of our most valuable natural resources.

In many areas around the world taps, pipes and wells simply don’t exist and if they do they’re not affordable for many people. It means drinking dirty water is the only option with dirty water being responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths each year.

We, like all other bodies of water, can change course and follow a sustainable direction by first believing we can and next acting on the belief with action by loving our waters for they are our mother, our ancestors and are the web weaving all our relatives into an amazing tapestry. We have a duty of care to protect and nurture our grandmothers and grandfathers and mothers and fathers who give us life.

May we all envision and answer the urgent call to action for a world where everyone drinks safe water instead of the present figure of only.01% is potable. Here’s a first step whenever using this sacred elixir…

 Prayer When Drinking Water

As I receive this water and it flows through me,
May it become medicine dispelling all ills,
May it become medicine revealing the wisdom within and through out.

As this water flows through me and becomes vapor,
May it purify the atmosphere
May it nourish the wisdom potential in the people
I offer apology for any harm done through wrong speech & action

As this water flows through me, and returns to the water table
May it remove the impurities of chemicals placed within the water
May the water be made new again
May this water become medicine for all beings in this and all worlds
