The main concern within this piece as a whole, has been an attempt from the get-go to illustrate humankind’s inner search to locate its own source, and source of suffering, and the ending of that suffering –  by the search and rescue itself; every human standing as the the whole of humanity: To create a sort-of talisman of this necessary spiritual process – all in a work in progress.

     The world is in turmoil. We’re spiritually on fire, flooded within whirlwinds of desire. Nearly overwhelming waves of change are moving through us; As we attempt to adjust these and to these incoming-outgoing currents, we succeed the changes to a better level of experience in every conscious action taken, by  and through selfless compassion; and fail each and every time by self absorption – forgetting about the suffering of others – the outward manifestation of which is causing enormous disruption in Earth’s entire ecosystem – resulting effects in an extreme extinction event of many, many plant and animal species. Human activities are suppressing and replacing all ecosystems of Earth. No place we can see is left untouched by the manipulation of humankind, altered by our work and our wars – our industrial- capitalist- urban expansion which sequesters all materials for its purposes – which are…?. 

All things good and bad come to their natural end, while there is always a new change on the horizon. As time goes on space changes. History as we know it is the playing field of this extreme transition, and to realize a safe passage through this, we’re in need of a concerted world gathering which has never before been attained, yet only by the individual has it, and by nearly every thinking, feeling individual, has been wished for –  a world civilization residing and sharing in peace. Because we can even consider this (if we dare) means that it can be attained. 

With our great, monstrous modern civilizations, we have become planetary transformers, we have been doing so since the whole of History. Once localized and isolated happenings have been occurring for long duration, yet in this ‘historical’ time a dramatic sequence of events, has sped up exponentially to a planet wide occurrence. All agglomerating into one. All of us together gathered in one ring of power. With our invented technologies, evoked, invoked, by the extractive methods to attain them, and the slavery necessary to produce, use, and dispose of these, we’ve entered into a quickened state of social-environmental emergency by this single conglomerated one-world happening. We are mainly in denial as to what we could/should do to alleviate the many crises experienced by many once seemingly disparate peoples, now forged to one world-wide crisis, for all people, with an eventual relearning – to be known as one. As from One thing came all things which are still that one thing. The realization means everything.

      All occurrences are of Nature. Nature itself having gifted/ granted/ given – the human capacity for an intellect extreme; and we having induced this current calamity through the many byways of this endowment – the thinking and those manifested actions, through time, which is now facing the transition of its time, has to be seen as a natural occurrence.  The “Environment” is all that which surrounds , and while-as we’ve all the native capacity to ascertain this community collective experience, are mostly so self involved that there’s failure to come close to comprehending the unity we’re embedded within – are that unity –  is the first postulate of conscious ecological awareness. Yet the environmental havoc we’ve wrought is symptomatic of that which is within us, as a whole, and individually; having been introduced, as it were, to this newfound rational capacity to intellectualize all this, slowly, surely unable to perceive its arising through us, as us, in evolution: an outward sign of a symbolical process; a spiritual-physical transformation both and neither good-bad, reflected through our innate human creativity, seen in all we do. Of all the various species experience which make up the totality, we’re the choice-makers of this Earth organism.

The natural balanced reciprocity of evolution is its involution; what goes out must come back in. Its happening all the time. In the living temple of nature, in the geometric foundation of its structure, As time is to space, is as matter is to energy, is a giving to take, is all in play; a dreaming yet unawake.  A complete definitive description of space/time eradicates the existence of both. As when all is in motion, there is no motion. As negentropy negates entropy; as levity is to gravity. Why fight. This living temple of torsion, spirals all matter into being, round a calm center of infinite egoic being; the “I” in you is as that in I: is the all in all.                                                                                                                               Thought may lead the way but must be abandoned at a point.

       Traditionally – spiritually, thoughts are considered living entities, or better, nearer what we are in our spirit, but yet not actually who we are at all; Like there are so many individuals on the planet, there so many thoughts, yet all these are quite simply one being, one great Self. Individual thoughts may be possessing-controlling,  may be confusing or clear, argumentative or agreeable, positive or negative, beneficent or malignant; they may be like an angel or a demon – helpful or hurtful, or somewhere deep in between – usually. We may pray with thought or we might curse. Thoughts are with us; there is the rare person who isn’t swayed by, reactant to them: typically called Saints, Sages, who are few, who have met with and live daily as that true Self, unified amongst all beings, as them, and quite for them as well.                                                                             Yet, but, and however, all people do have moments of clarity beyond thought, in a spectrum of experience as great as the entire human population; and this is where our greatest personal moments are, when we reconnect, as it were, with the whole. Imagine living with no dominance from it, no opposites, no this or that, no decision, confusion, no troubles. In times of clarity we have in life, where we sort-of, sink-in and are immersed within experience, whatever it may be, are when there is no thinking involved; we trust in nature then and things take their course proper. The best works of any genre of art, craft, skill, friendship, speaking, language, creative activity of any kind, come from this sort-of freedom. We can, by inherent human capacity, learn to adhere to a practice which can open a way of life – towards this clarity, which would take us easily out of the troubles we’ve caused, by not trying to get out of them – accepting them as not them or something other than who we are, which may allow nature to fill in and fulfill itself, we thereby prove what we are. We must do this individually, it can only be partially aided from outside influences. By this we rediscover a peace long sought. Art – in its primal essence, of whatever kind, is to initiate into this clear, free from thought, free from suffering experience. It might require great work to suffer one’s way out, away and free, or it may not.

       Certainly there is a purpose to suffering, all things experience it. It seems quite inevitable doesn’t it? Who has gotten out of it, the race, the rush, who is free, from fear, flight and fight?; are only those special people mentioned, and they have kept open a path to our birthright freedom. They, whether bodily alive or not, reside within the spaces between thought, as upholding the infinite structure, beyond time and space.

But what of all this and that, this building up of these great cities which inevitably fall down; why suffer these, why bother with that?. Civilizations wax and wane; we know this; it is asked: what are we reaching for within this?  What can we learn from all the travail of work and toil?  At the end of this question is found much our modern accomplishments are processional of Earth, itself needs to work these out, within its cosmic environs.  We reside in a cusp period,, called Apocalypse. We are seeing it every day. This is what it looks like, feels like and thinks like. We have entered in to a period where the great revelation of what we are, resides presently, and those whom have eyes to see and ears to hear, do just this, and work for the good of others to do the same. The term Pandemonium can describe this state; where all spirits meet, the Gods of all peoples are, all genius’ coalesce, all angels – all angles converge; if only for a time being, for all people, yet only some may know that, so it seems. Now is the time for this greatness of Being. May we meet That. This implied responsibility, to act in accordance with its ways, sacrifice, by giving all talents to assume that Spirit in Earth, as our self, one Self, thus no self alone, or at all. This gateway to ascending from self-delusion, arising from the illusion that Physical existence has, is amongst us. Believe it or not.

“Apocalypse”, is means, to discover, uncover, reveal, unmask – to show, disclose something once veiled and now needing open to view. There may be something coming on the Horizon, and it may be a surprise. This happens in the micro and macrocosm, for the individual and the collective. It usually requires much work.  Apocalypse never meant, in its original meaning, complete violent utter destruction. There are some who put that quite different connotation into it and spread this false doctrine all around the globe; and we are seeing some of the results of this belief system which is causing so much confusion. Certain authorities, perhaps unknowingly as they do, or perhaps not unknowingly, have utilized this end of times fear to control the minds of many. Time doesn’t end, until one goes deep within, beyond spacial constraints and those of thought. There, and on the way there, one finds peace. The fact that war does happen proves however of its requirement – until the lesson is clearly learnt. True Revelation, actual Revolution is non-violent, something different, new, fresh – that which will bring happiness and light – not more  the same recursive patterns of our shared dark violent history. If we’re to learn from history, and our ancestors, our past deeds, we are to live quite different lives.

 With this particular work was tried a purposeful going into into the issues our world is undergoing; to watch, listen, observe the thoughts, the chaos of modernity, the wars, violence, pollution, and so much fear – was the preparation and practice. The same light held, by so many others, in going on this inward journey, into these dark spaces of ignorance,  shifts the inner energies themselves, by the attempt to see into that darkness of unknowing,  Nature helps nature. This ancient homeopathic principle; when there is a sickness, one takes a little bit of that particular sickness in order to overcome the disease in general.  To take a portion of the poison present in modern life, under certain conditions, in context of entering into states of vulnerability – with music, color, aroma, as guide, through a journey, into a darkened inner landscape, of ignorance, places of not-knowing -one may learn bravery by facing and eventually healing the issue at hand; oneself is the only issue at hand. By ignoring the current calamities and going right along with contemporary ways – the changing fads and fashions, economic calls to war, one is, in a sense, used by these-those, gets taken over and in the same sense – controlled – creator moved about by its creation.  This drawing is created in that archaic purging light, the one that eradicates fear of the crises, by facing, going into and clearing them up. I think of it as a journey book in pictures. This is one of excitation, of churning up that which is latent yet dreaming its way into our daily lives; and one that may require deep commitment, to get at its inner meaning, resulting in, once the work is done and the fire of engagement is passed through, a feeling of peace, self-assurance, and self-knowledge, is to be achieved. However brief is better than before. This required much, much thought which I  was so bound up within for some 18 years. Working on it when emotional catastrophe called – personal and political. All in hopes this little macrocosm of imagery would ripple effects to the world, albeit metaphysically at least.

Any so-called evil in the world begins with ignorance,  a mal-alignment of vision. An angle of incidence in, of one’s conscience aims one towards the actually non-existent extremes of “good” or “evil”, right or wrong. See this – that Angel and Angle have the same root source meaning. One’s personal Angel relates to one’s personal Genius, or individual message, special angle if incidence, our personality, we’ve to bring to and re-gift the world.   And ones personal environmental awareness may consider the environment to be “out there” yet  may fail to see that everyone else’s “out there”, is everything in their surroundings, which is everyone else.  We must never forget each individual is a reflection and reiteration of the whole. All the infinite variety of mirrored images compose the whole world. So, what one does, in a real sense, the whole world does. The mission of discovering mindfulness is to become non-ignorant concerning this particular question of: how to free the world of ignorance which is the same as, how to free oneself, how to become clear minded; mine was to learn how to encapsulate this personal process into a drawing.

The symbology of this piece, composed of many signs, coalescing into one great symbol, is the entire piece itself. The focus here is bottom central panel. To be read, or gone through as a mandala, created out of a longing to devise a teaching device of sorts – mainly a mnemonic tool for myself. 

   The drawing is made from 10 separate 19×24”panels (totaling 72×57”) joined together to form a story. I see it as occurring on and works in three levels; 1. The top level; standing;  the physical body, the average height of a grown adult, looking toward the horizon, fight and or flight, superficial understanding, the modern world with it dominant capitalist culture, industrial paradigm; the powers ,intelligence’s that have seemingly taken over, surging from below, within the underworld to form a nightmare world which is confused , polluted, hurried to fulfill base sensual desires. 2. The middle level; sitting in a chair; the mental faculties, history, psychology, thinking and tracing the problems inward deeper and going to their common source. 3. Lowest level; sitting on the ground, meditation into the great illusory division of spirit body, the inner world of the mind and its faculties which create our physical world, a spiraling tube torus and the temple of the universal mind, a reflection of what is below is like that which is above, equal yet opposite.

     The contents of this third level  is what I wanted to share in the following diagrams, as I feel I have come into a significant and notable series of correspondences that have been discovered in certain geometric figures all the while, how they interrelate. This here is greatly reduced and truncated to a bare minimum. Sacred geometry was and is an essential study tool to look into this important work, as has always been in both spiritual and physical sciences. The environmental crisis we face with all its concurrent social troubles all are due to, it is found, to the seeming sense of division between humans and nature. Of course, not all humans are burdened with this feeling as much as others might be. I wanted to trace out the problem to its source, for those who are – as I believe that the final manifestation of our seeming dis-unity begins with disassociation of our mental environment with our physical environment, resulting in a degraded natural world; to the degree where it will become of such emergency that the human species will be forced to unite peacefully, or perhaps perish, almost entirely. For this physical realm holds lessons for the soul better learnt through a healthy body.

The geometric drawings below are included alongside brief explanations, and the final outcome thus far where this study has taken me. To understand what will be gone into one would be helped by possessing a basic knowledge of the traditional symbology of each  geometric figure. At the same time know that many years of study went into this, so there is much foundation behind it all. The entirety of the rest of the drawing also has geometric symbols which interrelate with others throughout and which lead to what we will be going straight into now.

It’s said that the universe divided itself sacredly; adhering to this, seeking to find just how and why, and to synthesize the division pictorially – through the three sacred prime mathematical/geometric roots 2, 3 and 5, or how they coincide; showing their purposes and differences and put this into a diagram or figure. I believe by this I could come to know the why and how we are in the predicament we’re in; and, by doing so this would convey the knowledge needed to help alleviate some of the suffering. For it is only through love of labor shall we be released from the toil of it.

     If this interests you enough, I am asking for some aid with the “proof”. I am definitely not a mathematician, nor a superb geometer. I would love find those whom may be interested enough and proficient at sacred geometry to see if what I have come up with is geometrically true, I feel strongly that symbolically it is true. I realize that the drawings seem hastily done and could use some refinement. This may come in time.

It may not be apparent what my question actually is, so please ask!

 I hope this will be entertaining and interesting if you have decided to go on.
