I have always turned to Quanah and Neishte when confronted with such philosophical cunundrums after all it is the true religion of my homeland!

Kiowa Sun Dance Prayer

O Dom-oye-alm-k' hee, Creater of the earth,
Bless my prayer and heal our land,
Increase our food, the buffalo power,
Multiply my people, prolong their lives on earth,
Protect us from troubles and sickness,
That happiness and joy may be ours in life,
That life we live is so uncertain,
Consider my supplications with kindness,
For I talk to you as yet living for my people.

Statement on the use of Peyote in Religious Observance

Ancient Spiritual tenets are to heal the body and spirit. Further, to teach impeccability, correct 'seeing', and power of Beingness. Peyote is not used to obtain 'visions' but to open portals to Reality. Always seeking centeredness within this existence. Peyote is the road back to the true Self. This should suffice in order to allow personal compreshension of this Sacrament
There is much more to the 'Church' - 'Kiva' than just the Sacrament but, all things flow from the existential awareness of Being Here. This "Diazine" leads to the second, and a most powerful teaching perception. Which is to maintain the integrity of this Existential Beingness in the environment in which one finds their self manifested (Weltanschauung). There is energy to affectively change, from searching to understanding.
Let me give you an example of a couple of self-realizations that can allow you to become mere harmonically in tune with the Relativity surrounding you. For each of us gravitate to the freedom knowledge brings with it.
Truth is like the Air we breathe; We cannot live without It. Many things present themselves to fragment each one of us away from Truth
Within the 'Church-Kiva' we are ourselves. Feeling and emotion of each other make the relative space harmonic or, off centered (fragmented). Outside the 'Church-Kiva' we have learned that in order to exist in that environment, we have to strategically hide behind our 'Images'.
While this can be said to be universal behavior, the difference is in the "psychological defenses" of our objective self. When a person is ego-centered in the image, the psychological strategies come into play automatically. This movement is Conserve the projected image at all costs! Loss of this Image could be dangerous to the well-being of the person. These complex psychic interactions cause problems-cause problems-cause problems.
These situations, when encountered on the outside, are only IMAGE conflicts and it means that there has to be a Reality check on our INTENT and DIRECTION.
If you heal the Spirit, you heal the body, and to Be yourself is a step in the right direction. Furthermore, there is a discipline and a structure to everything that surrounds us. To vibrate harmoniously with these things is definitely healing. (feels good too)
The learning of 'Human things' and the knowing of relationships opens portals of existence which are the Spiritual Legacy of each one of us. This is the rightful place of man-kind as we step into the future second by second.

This is a remarkable dream. It takes place in psb's head the night before New Year's Eve, and woven into it are the fundamental messages of Christmas, Epiphany ( the magi), the new Covenant ( Abraham) and the Good News. And to make it just that much more interesting, you threw New Year Eve (drinking.) It seems you have your brain trained to entertain you even while you are asleep...

Viva la difference!

sorry, looks like a technicality.

I have been thinking about Dylan tunes and the juxtaposition of this Peter, Paul and Mary tune today, about contrasting this with the sounds of the teens today. I want to undermine them. I want to say you don't know. But if I did , I would be denying the very essence of the music revolution of the late 60's.

don't know why, I just thought I would put this here!

well the kid has come and gone, headin on out to get it while she can. The funny thing is, she took that book that had prompted me to post tomorrow is a long time! who would have thought (well I guess I could have figured),

I was wondering why Bukowski
did not like stars
I guess he thought it to easy
to use stars
there is no underlying chaos
to use stars
I suppose he does not
like the moon either

I don't really care?

here is some avante guitar back at you Agnes!

I guess everybody gets a little homesick once they move away from where they are from? or maybe it is just me? It is that sentimental type crying emotional memories about where you come from. I mean, I would love to drive through Gotebo right now! There aint a god domn thing there but it reminds me of my youth and it is the land where I come from. Down through Blanchard and Colgate and over to Beavers Bend or up to Weber's Falls! Or just go down to Dirty Bird or Carl Blackwell! The Salt lick or Antelope Hills or Roman Nose or Red Rock Canyon or even just the old bridge on the Canadian!

Maybe it is just the time of year?

I have read Bukowski and watched him speak, and I would think he would appreciate the Big Dipper at least......he needed a vessel of that magnitude to contain his beverages......!

The ladies were mighty fond of him:
