My first spiritual song

 

I created my first spiritual song with Suno, inspired by a poem I wrote in 2021.

Right now

Right now I Am…

   soaring high on outstretched wings

   opening my petals to the morning sun

   scurrying through a termite cathedral

  spinning an intricate web of silk

   trumpeting through an upturned trunk

   laying eggs in a little pond

   picking nits from my lover’s fur

   probing the damp soil with my spindly roots

   singing a duet through a twittering beak

   galloping along on mud-spattered hooves

   surfing waves with gleeful squeaks

   gazing out meditatively with large, luminous eyes

   stretching my branches up and out into the vast, open sky

   smelling for truffles with my sensitive, pink snout

   probing a hole in the rocks with a nimble tentacle

   paddling along a stream with powerful kicks

   hungrily sucking warm milk from my mother’s teat

   searching the ocean bed in search of a larger shell to call home

   charging headlong into the horns of another with a mighty clash

   licking my paws with a raspy tongue

   wriggling this way and that to shed my scaly skin

   breathing in air through my damp, permeable membrane

   bobbing up and down in an intricate dance with my life-long mate

   cutting the water with my dorsal fin

   rising up on thrusting haunches in orgasmic release

   stalking stealthily in pursuit of unsuspecting prey

   enclosing my young one in a protective embrace of flippers and feet

   staring patiently at the water with my rapier like bill ready to strike

   wagging my tail in unrestrained welcome

   sharing a belly-laugh with a beloved friend

   staring in wonder at a crimson sunset

   shedding grief-stricken tears at an untimely loss

   typing this poem with clumsy fingers and an open heart

All these things I, the Cosmic Mind,  experience in the timeless Now

and a quintillion quintillion more things

across countless different worlds and dimensions.

All experiences past, present, and future

exploding forth as pure perception from the Singularity I Am,

the Infinite Awareness I Am,

in a great, exultant cosmic bang,

creating the ultimate immersive, experiential work of art,

wondrous and beautiful,

epic and profound,

beyond all imagination.

And now for something entirely different!

 Also based on a poem I wrote a while ago.

My beloved Buddha statues

I've been collecting Buddha statues for several years.  I love them. They make me feel so peaceful.

 

AI Podcast about Life Trove

I've just discovered the wonders of Notebook LM, an AI resource powered by Google's Gemini.

I gave it the URL of Life Trove and it created a wonderful, interactive podcast that provides some profound reflections on it. It's so wonderful, it had me close to tears at times. 

I particularly liked how it described my life as a combination of external adventure and internal introspection and how these two activities can create a virtuous circle. I'd never thought of it that way before but it resonates as beautifully true.

New Buddha

 I've added a new Buddha to my collection. I light its candle as a ritual when I meditate.  I love Buddha statues so much.  I have about 12 in my room and on the balcony.

Favourite spiritual music

Whirling Dervishes with Shushann and Xenia

Bamboo Buddha with Xenia for lunch and sound healing meditation

A very peaceful spiritual retreat on The Central Coast, 1.5 hours outside Sydney. Lovely, healthy food (a juicy rack of over-roasted veggies), lounging in the beautiful garden on comfy chairs and an amazing sound healing meditation session to end it all off.  

Yoga day with Sharon and Elwin

 

Hypnotherapy with Nic

To thank me for the site I helped him create for his hypnotherapy practice, Nic did a hypnotherapy session with me.  Here is the audio from the session.

Deva, Miten, Manose and The Temple Band in Mullimbimby

A blissful time with the best of friends listening to sublime music, meeting beautiful people and swimming in the rain.
