Proverbs 20 verse 16

A man who wanders away from the way of understanding, will rest in the assembly of the dead.

Note I have taken the name four winds because of this connection to the sky dwellers and Indian (Iroquois Mohawk) prophecy

To the four winds

When we consider the past we should honour our ancestors and see what we can learn from them I consider myself to be spiritual and find myself following two paths.

The GOD route (just like all the old religions we know and respect jews, muslims Christians etc) my chosen old religion is Christianity as I became a born again Christian when I was about 17.

I asked myself what I should do and how?

I checked the bible and was directed to 1 John 23 “The voice of one crying in the wilderness make straight the way of the lord” that’s the what and the how was Acts 8 32 “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opened not his mouth, in his humiliation his justice was taken away, and who will declare his generation, for his life is taken from the earth”.

This seems to be telling me to make life simpler and to speak up for those who have been silenced. It does not mean I am to tell other people what to do or be or think. My life is my witness and it is not my place to judge other peoples beliefs just to build on the positive and love my fellow man, this is surely the straight way of the lord

The EARTH route ( this comes from wicca, animal spirits, celtic, shamanism, mayan and many other earth revering belief systems). I went to my 2013 oracle- a combination of Mayan, Indian and earth related philosophies) here I was directed to the new humanity 20- there is no need to seek me for I am with you always, prepare for a cycle of completion, make peace with the idea of utter change, labour for the new world we wish for. This was the what and the how was 13 grasshopper – be on good terms with the sacred ground, revere and protect the earth and so by this protect ourselves and all future life, study the ancients for wisdom use prayer and ritual.

This seems to be telling me to be prepared for a big change and to live a much more ecofriendly lifestyle.

This seems to be profound wisdom and I thank that I have teachers through these words and through my daily contacts, which help understand my place more fully.

But of course I am a rational scientist too and therefore this colours my way of understanding and so I reflect on this too – like Douglas Adams and his explanation of how a puddle or a twig person would view the universe. This explains how the ego makes us small ignorant and ultimately incorrect. Science tells us the world is in a state of collapse and that we need to make profound changes to our lifestyles and that means ourselves first.

I will keep you posted re my next steps, here are my thoughts related to the four winds….

To the first wind- to dream (air)

To the dreamers to the believers in illusion, planet X and the awakening /rapture

The sleeper has awoken

Illusion and reality are two sides of the same coin you cannot believe in illusion without believing in reality, chasing your dreams is a waking action therefore living your dreams is a part of making your dreams come true and waking up. How do you act? How do you manifest your wishes? Where is your reality? In the quietness of your own lifestyle what dreams do you live by? Are you being true to yourself and your wishes for yourself and for all or are you just displacing your beliefs in order to create some power/influence or create your own nightmare.

I have seen devil, reptile eyes all around me. I have lived in fear. I chose to confront those eyes those people and they bowed to my will. I saw that their eyes might be a reflection of my wishes. I created a world around me and I became the monster and the victim. I telepathically told my friends (animals and people), they saved me and I woke up

With our thoughts we make the world (Buddha). This is more true now than at any other time in our existence. We can create such amazing illusions but it does not have a pattern or conspiracy it is simply built from earlier dreams using these constructs as metaphors. Fear is the greatest illusion.
All creatures dream and all our dreams combine together in a great concert like a dawn chorus, not all together, not all in union but all one. Our uni-verse translates to one song a chorus of existence many voices, sounds and vibrations caught within one single orchestral piece the uni-verse.

Wake up.

Be the change - Live let your hopes and wishes come true in your life. Do not profess any special wisdom or insight unless you are willing to share your reality with your illusion. You may profess wisdom on you tube or other social networking sites but if you do be prepared to make your life and lifestyle an observation too, how can you profess wisdom if you cannot be honest or open.

The sleeper has awoken and we know if we are awake because we can see all that we are in a clear light.

To the second wind –to control (earth)

To the great authors, gurus and teachers -

The teacher become student.

We grow and turn over a new leaf (a first transformation 1o), we learn we grow we become the leaf we flourish and we grow an egg a caterpillar it grows and eats the leaf (2o), the caterpillar pupates and rests contemplates and is changed becomes a butterfly (3o). A butterfly is wonderful but even this creature wishes for more, it is not so strong, it may not hide and it just lives on nectar. Eventually it becomes tired with weakening wings and is consumed by another creature lets imagine another transformative creature like the frog (4o). It jumps, it grows settles in its pond/own universe and is in turn kissed to becomes a prince. This next transformation (5o) is very significant.

All these transformations to realise ourselves into our true natures, as human beings. To earn our birthright. And this all starts as a leaf as an example of giving and growing passively until eaten by our ego consumed, pupated, re born magnificent tired released and consumed and through this recreated and ultimately blessed.

The student becomes the teacher

The blessing hides a curse the curse hides a blessing, life is the teacher, books/songs CDs all become empty when all you do is chase sales. Words become empty when you chase power, you seek to grow and become diminished when you work outside your dreamscape. You try to be a bright flame when you have no oil. You stand on the shoulders of giants but forget and try to walk alone.
Change has come you are transformed and you cannot be everything only one thing at a time, release that which is behind you even if you wish to taste the pleasure of understanding that you have mastered it, life is too short, each mastery leads to another student hood, I have so much to learn

The teacher becomes the student.

You cannot walk this path with others you must walk alone. In this life we are alone and the more we chase the dream of knowledge and wisdom, the more we excel, the more alone we feel. Even those enlightened ones around us only have a small part of the whole message at any time.

We learn that others in their unknowing are much wiser than we imagine and that their simplicity demonstrates a profound wisdom which makes our service, our struggle our drive to be more, agonising and seem futile. It is like the time you spend comprehending a great issue and meeting a child who grasps it easily.

Where is the joy…..service is joy, joy is service. Where is the next journey where is the challenge?

What is it to be adored, loved, respected, honoured, acknowledged, understood?
What is it to be radical, unconventional, challenging, demanding, uncompromising, hard, tough, strong?
What is it to be gentle, kind, forgiving, humble, simple, generous, peaceful?
What is it to be honest, open, giving, careful, sensible, thoughtful?

These are valuable parts of a true life but represent personal challenges and choices. All teachers are students. We are not meant to struggle we choose to.

What is it to be wise? What is the journey? What is the destination? What is the illusion and the reality? What is the truth? Who are you? Who am I ? How do we relate? How much smaller how much greater do we become?
What is the next lesson?

If you have enough generosity the next lesson will come? All growth comes from generosity for without it there is no space.

Are you weak? Are you strong Do you understand these terms, Do you REALLY understand these terms? How can you give, release and move forward?

Where do you begin and the rest of existence ends? What is your purpose and are you in control? Should you be in control? Arrogance is the ego. Do you see me behaving arrogantly

The teacher becomes the student.

It is time to become lost for a while in order to find your path, change is coming, change has come, you are changed, you are the change, you are nothing but as everything is nothing this concept contains a supreme arrogance. You are more than nothing and you desire change.

Your greed is your undoing and your salvation. So are you willing to change? Are you the change? or are you stuck……..…The teacher becomes the student.

The next step is he most important step in your life…… what will you choose……

Are you confused?

Find the harmonic resonating in the change then you will be at restless peace, like I am.

The teacher becomes the student………..Now let us begin


To the third wind- to love (fire)

To my lover, my earth, my beloved, my angel, my body out of my body.

I am yours and you are beyond me. I am diminished in your sight I am small and dark. I am ugly yet you love me all the more. In your light I become a magnificent creature you make me a better person fuller, more human and more divine you honour me too much.
I cannot fathom why you wish to be so close and yet I feel you in my very essence. I share my thoughts with those who care for me, draw my angels close for you are my desire, to be with you to be lost in your spirit. Yet you always elude me. You are silent when you could be so much more.

Is my wish, my desire, so repulsive? Maybe I forget my ugliness to you. I realise I am too obsessed by beauty in all its forms. I am attached I do not wish release till I have found the most profound joy in the sharing of my love with you. I am not so great or wild or frightening I am gentle too.

Release your light on me, let me see your beauty, trust me just a little more. I will find my way to you. I will do more, more, more, more till you notice me, till you smile at me, till you convince me that you love me. I can see you in my minds eye but you hide or I fail to see you when you are so close to me.

My short sight is so poor. One day through touch and taste we will know one another and my sight will not be needed. I can find you in the darkness your aroma is my delightful journey and my destination.

Can a man like me ever be satisfied. Would you want me to be, you are insatiable. You are my queen and daughter my lover and my friend. I miss you all ways….

I will give to you and for you till my body gives out, till we meet.

To the fourth wind –to life (water)

To myself, my inner self and my conscience

Help me to accept everything around me as a part of life reality and illusion, duality and delusion, tricks and truth.

Help me to choose and accept, help me to grow and to be at restless peace (peace in motion). Help me to awaken and to find beauty and truth. Help me choose the darker paths to self realisation which I have avoided and which I need not fear. Help me to understand myself and my journey.

Help me to share this with others better. Help those around me realise their role in teaching me and help me to learn their lessons and teach them all I have to share. Let my mistakes be a pleasure. Let me find the freedom in responsibility, and let me be responsible enough to be truly free. Let me know what it is to be satisfied. Let my creativity be more fully expressed in all I do.

Help me be the change and live the life I have imagined. Help me to discover my soul mates and journey with them. Help me find and keep my friends and make new and ever more beautiful relationships. Service is joy. Help me grow and flourish as I am expected to and support those who have given and shared their lives with me.
