MAGIC OF MYTHOLOGY Edith Hamilton's insight into the ancient tablets of Human thought forged a body of work from her artistry. The adventure and discovery of Creation undertaken by many kindred spirits inspired her to bring us to a conscious perspective of 'HOW THE WORLD AND MANKIND WERE CREATED... 
"MYTHOLOGY - must draw from widely different sources" as stated in the forward of her book, "Mythology" with illustrations by Steele Savage, 1942. We continue at CCPI to celebrate the pulse of creativity in "The Evolutionary Expressionism of Life Energy." The emergence of timeless Human Beings throughout the creative processes of life's evolutionary expressions manifests tremendous energy from within our universal nature. The infinity of the one essence of Life, characterized in the Mythology of the Humans sojourn is a master stroke with genius as it's center focus. We are constantly demonstrating variations of the Life's universal theme to quest beyond the quest for new answers to old thoughts and yet the master is masterful when one keeps learning and applying what one has learned in order to be masterful at being a master at 'Living Life Eternal' here and now as the gods and goddesses of the UNIVERSE! So we delve into the Mythology of our Being Human only to find that we are the story we are telling and creating new potentiality of our Human consciousness in this miraculous Universe. 
Greek and Egyptian God Images CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY BY EDITH HAMILTON OF OLD THE HELLENIC RACE WAS MARKED OFF FRO THE BARBARION AS MORE KEEN-WITTED AND MOREFREE FROM NONSENSE. HERODOTUS I: 60. Greek and Roman mythology is quite generally supposed to show us the way the human race thought and felt untold ages ago. Through it, according to this view, we can retrace the path from civilized man who lives so far from nature, to man who lived in close companionship with nature; and the real interest of the myths is that they lead us back to a stime when the world was oung and people had a connection with the earth, with trees and seas and flowers and hills, unlike anything we ourselves can feel. When the stories were being shapd, we are given to understand, little distinction had as yet been made between the real and th unreal. The imagination was vividly alive and not checked by the reason, so that anyone in the woods might see through the tress a fleeding nymph, or bending over a clear pool to drink behold in the depths a naiad's face.  Zeus The prospect of traveling back to this delightful state of things is held out by nearly every writer who touches upon classical mythology, above all by the poets. In that infinitely remote time primitive man could Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea; Or hear old Triton blow his wreathèd horn. And we for a moment can catch, through the myths he made, a glimpse of that strangely and beautifully animated world. But a very brief consideration of the ways of uncivilized peoples everywhere and in all ages is enough to prick that romantic bubble. Nothing is clearer than the fact that primitive man, whether in New Guinea today or eons ago in the prehistoric wilderness, is not and never has been a creature who peoples his world with bright fancies and lovely visions. Horrors lurked in the primeval forest, not nymphs and naiads. Terror live there, with is close attendant, Magic, and its most common defense, Human Sacrifice. Mankind's chief hope of escaping the wrath of whatever divinities were then abroad lay in some magical right, senseless but powerful, or in some offering made at the cost of pain and grief.  Pandora's Box THE MYTHOLOGY OF THE GREEKS This dark picture is worlds apart from the stories of classical mythology. The study of the stories of classical mythology. The study of the way early man looked at his surroundings does not get much help from the Greeks. How briefly the anthropologists treat the Greek myths is noteworthy. Of course the Greeks too had their roots in the primeval slime. Of course they too once lived a savage life, ugly and brutal. but what the myths show is how high they had risen above the ancient filth and fierceness by the time we have any knowledge of them. Only a few traces of that time are to be found in the stories. We do not know when these stories were first told in their present shape; but whenever it was, primitive life had been left far behind. The myths as we have them are the creation of great poets. The first written record of Greece is the Iliad. Greek mythology begins with Homer, generally believed to be not earlier than a thousand years before Christ. The Iliad is, or contains, the oldest Greek literature; and it is written in a rich and subtle and beautiful language which must have had behind it centuries when men were striving to express themelves with clarity and beauty, an indisputable proof of civilization. The tales of Greek mythology do not throw any clear light upon what early man was like. They do throw an abundance of light upon what early Greeks were like a matter, it would seem, of more importance to us, who are their descendants intellectually, artistically, and politically, too. Nothing we learn about them is alien to ourselves.  Bellerophon, Pegasus & the Chimaera People often speak of "the Greek miracle." What the phrase tries to expess is the newbirth of the world with the awakening of Greece. "Old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new." Something like that happened in Greece. Why it happened, or when, we have no idea at all. We know only that in the earliest Greek poets a new point of view dawned, never dreamed of in the world before them, but never to leave the world after them. With the coming forward of Greece, mankind become the center of the universe, the most important thing in it. This was a revolution in thought. Human beings had counted for little heretofore. In Greece man first realized what mankind was. The Greeks made their gods in their own image. That had not entered the mind of man before. Until then, gods had had no semblance of reality. They were unlike all living things. In Egypt, a towering colossus, immobile, beyond the power of the imagination to endow with movement, as fixed in the stone as teh tremendous temple columns, a representation of the human shape deliberately made unhuman. Or a rigid figure, a woman with a cat's head suggesting inflexible, inhuman cruelty. Or a monstorous mysterious sphinx, aloof from all that lives. In Mesopotamia, bas-reliefs of bestial shapes unlike any beast ever known, men with birds's heads and lions with bulls' heads and both with eagles' wings, creations of artists who were intent upon producing something never seen except in their own minds, the very consummation of unreality.  Perseus holding Medusa's Head These and their like were what the pre-Greek world worshiped. One need only place beside them in imagination any Greek stature of a god, so normal and natural with all its beauty, to perceive what a new idea had come into the world. With its coming, the universe became rational. Saint Paul said the invisible must be understood by the visible. That was not a Hebrew idea, it was Greek. In Greece alone in the ancient world people were preoccupied with the visible; they were finding the satisfaction of their desires in what was actually in the world around them. The sculptor watched the athletes contending in the games and he felt that nothing he could imagine would be as beautiful as those strong young bodies. So he made his stature of Apollo. The storyteller found Hermes among the people he passed in the street. He saw the god "like a young man at that age when youth is loveliest," as Homer says. Greek artists and poets realized how splendid a man could be, straight and swift and strong. He was the fulfillment of their search for beauty. They had no wish to create some fantasy shaped in their own minds. All the art and all the thought of Greece centered in human beings.  Hercules carrying Cerberus Human gods naturally made heaven a pleasantly familiar place. The Greeks felt at home in it. They knew just what the divine inhabitants did there, what they ate and drank and where they banqueted and how they amused themselves. Of course they were to be feared; they were very powerful and very dangerous when angry. Still, with proper care a man could be quite fairly at ease with them. He was even perfectly free to laugh at them. Zeus, trying to hide his love affairs from his wife and invariably shown up, was a capital figure of fun. The Greeks enjoyed him and liked him all the better for it. Hera was that stock character of comedy, the typical jealous wife, and her ingenious tricks to discomfit her husband and punish her rival, far from displeasing the Greeks, entertained them as much as Hera's modern counterpart does us today. Such stories made for a friendly feeling. Laughter in the presence of an Egyptian sphinx or an Assyrian bird-beast was inconceivable; but it was perfectly natural in Olympus, and it made the gods companionable. On earth, too, the deities were exceedingly and humanly attractive. In the form of lovely youths and maidens they peopled the woodland, the forest, the rivers, the sea, in harmony with fair earth and the bright waters.  The Minotaur in the Labyrinth That is the miracle of Greek mythology a humanized world, men freed from the paralyzing fear of an omnipotent Unknown. The terrifying incomprehensibilities which were worshiped elsewhere, and the fearsome spirits with which earth, air and sea swarmed, were banned from Greece. It may seem odd to say that the men who made the myths disliked the irrational and had a love for facts; but it is true, no matter how wildly fantastic some of the stories are. Anyone who reads them with attention discovers that even the most nonsensical take place in a world which is essentially rational and matter-of-fact. Hercules, whose life was one long combat against preposterous monsters, is always said to have had his home in the city of Thebes. The exact spot where Aphrodite was born of the foam could be visited by any ancient tourist; it was just offshore from the island of Cythera. the winged steed Pegasus, after shimming the air all day, went every night to a comfortable stable in Corinth. A familiar local habitation gave reality to all the mythical beings. If the mixture seems childish, consider how reassuring and how sensible the solid background is as compared with the Genie who comes from nowhere when Aladdin rubs he lamp and, his task accomplished, returns to nowhere.  Atalanta and the golden apples The terrifying irrational has no place in classical mythology. Magic, so powerful in the world before and after Greece, is almost nonexistent. There are no men and only two women with dreadful, supernatural powers. The demoniac wizards and the hideous old witches who haunted Europe and America, too, up to quite recent years, play no part at all in the stories. Circe and Medea are the only witches and they are young and of surpassing beauty delightful, not horrible. Astrology, which has flourished from the days of ancient Babylon down to today, is completely absent from classical Greece. There are many stories about the stars, but not a trace of the idea that they influence men's lives. Astronomy is what the Greek mind finally made out of the stars. Not a single story has a magical priest who is terribly to be feared because he knows ways of winning over the gods or alienating them. The priest is rarely seen and is never of mportance. In the Odyssey when a priest and a poet fall on their knees before Odysseus, praying him to spare their lives, the hero kills the priest without a thought, but saves the poet. Homer says that he felt awe to slay a man who had been taught his divine art by the gods. Not the priest, but the poet, had influence with heaven and no one was ever afraid of a poet. Ghosts, too, which have played so large and so fearsome a part in other lands, never appear on earth in any Greek story. The Greeks were not afraid of the dead 'the piteous dead," the Odyssey calls them.  Aeneas & the Sibyl enter Charon's boat The world of Greek mythology was not a place of terror for the human spirit. It is true that the gods were disconcertingly incalculable. One could never tell where Zeus's thunderbolt would strike. Nevertheless, the whole divine company, with a very few and for the most part not important exceptions, were entrancingly beautiful with a human beauty, and nothing humanly beautiful is really terrifying. The early Greek mythologists transformed a world full of fear into a world full of beauty. This bright picture has its dark spots. The change came about slowly and was never quite completed. The gods become-human were for a long time a very slight improvement upon their worshipers. They were incomparably lovelier and more powerful, and they were of course immortal; but they often acted in a way no decent man or woman would. In the Iliad Hector is nobler by far than any of the heavenly beings, and Andromache infinitely to be preferred to Athena or Aphrodite. Hera from first to last is a goddess on a very low level of humanity. Almost every one of the radiant divinities could act cruelly or contemptibly. A very limited sense of right and wrong prevailed in Homer's heaven, and for a long time after.  Oedipus and the Sphinx Other dark spots too stand out. There are traces of a time when there were beast-gods. The satyrs are goat-men and the centaurs are half man, half horse. Hera is often called "cow-faced," as if the adjective had somehow stuck to her through all her changes from a divine cow to the very human queen of heaven. There are also stories which point back clearly to a time when there was human sacrifice. But what is astonishing is not that bits of savage belief were left here and there. The strange thing is that they are so few. Of course the mythical monster is present in any number of shapes,
Gorgons and hydras and chimaeras dire,
but they are there only to give the hero his meed of glory. What could a hero do in a world without them? They are always overcome by him. The great hero of mythology, Hercules, might be an allegory of Greece herself. He fought the monsters and freed the earth from them just as Greece freed the earth from the monstrous idea of the unhuman supreme over the human.Greek mythology is largely made up of stories about gods and goddesses, but it must not be read as a kind of Greek Bible, an account of the Greek religion. According to the most modern idea, a real myth has nothing to do with religion. It is an explanation of something in nature; how, for instance, any and everything in the universe came into existence: men, animals, this or that tree or flower, the sun, the moon, the stars, storms, eruptions, earthquakes, all that is and all that happens. Thunder and lightning are caused when Zeus hurls his thunderbolt. A volcano erupts because a terrible creature is imprisoned in the mountain and every now and then struggles to get free. The dipper, the constellation called also the Great Bear, does not set below the horizon because a goddess once was angry at it and decreed that it should never sink into the sea. Myths are early science, the result of men's first trying to explain what they saw around them. But there are many so-called myths which explain nothing at all. These tales are pure entertainment, the sort of thing people would tell each other on a long winter's evening. The story of Pygmalion and Galatea is an example; it has no conceivable connection with any event in nature. Neither has the Quest of the Golden Fleece, nor Orpheus and Eurydice, not many another. This fact is now generally accepted; and we do not have to try to find in every mythological heroine the moon or the dawn and in every hero's life a sun myth. The stories are early literature as well as early science.  Glaucus and Scylla But religion is there, too. In the background, to be sure, but nevertheless plain to see. From Homer through the tragedians and even later, there is a deepening realization of what human beings need and what they must have in their gods. Zeus the Thunderer was, it seems certain, once a rain-god. He was supreme even over the sun, because rocky Greece needed rain more than sunshine and the God of Gods would be the one who could give the precious water of life to his worshipers. But Homer's Zeus is not a fact of nature. He is a person living in a world where civilization has made an entry, and of course he has a standard of right and wrong. It is not very high, certainly, and seems chiefly applicable to others, not to himself; but he does punish men who lie and break their oaths; he is angered by any ill treatment of the dead; and he pities and helps old Priam when he goes as a suppliant to Achilles. In the Odyssey, he has reached a higher level. The swineherd there says that the needy and the stranger are from Zeus and he who fails to help them sins against Zeus himself. Hesiod, not much later than the Odyssey if at all, says of a man who does evil to the suppliant and the stranger, or who wrongs orphan children, "with that man Zeus is angry." Then Justice became Zeus's companion. That was a new idea. The buccaneering chieftains in the Iliad did not want justice. They wanted to be able to take whatever they chose because they were strong and they wanted a god who was on the side of the strong. But Hesiod, who was a peasant living in a poor man's world, knew that the poor must have a just god. He wrote, "Fishes and beasts and fowls fo the air devour one another. But to man, Zeus has given justice. Beside Zeus on his throne Justice has her seat." These passages show that the great and bitter needs of the helpless were reaching up to heaven and changing the god of the strong into the protector of the weak.  Sigurd riding through the fire to Brynhild So, back of the stories of an amorous Zeus and a cowardly Zeus coming into being, as men grew continually more conscious of what life demanded of them and what human beings needed in the god they worshiped. Gradually this Zeus displaced the others, until he occupied the whole scene. At last he became, in the words of Dio Chrysostom, who wrote duirng the second century A.D.: "Our Zeus, the giver of every good gift, the common father and saviour and guardian of mankind." The Odyssey speaks of "the divine for which all men long," and hundreds of years later Aristotle wrote, "Excellence, much labored for by the race of mortals." The Greeks from the earliest mythologists on had a perception of the divine and the excellent. Their longing for them was great enough to make them never give up laboring to see them clearly, until at last the thunder and lightning were changed into the Universal Father. -con't: HOW THE WORLD & MANKIND WERE CREATED Evolutionary Expression

When looking around the world of Human Beings and seeing the multitudes of those who have since left the planet, on the planet and coming to the planet with an understanding that the Universe is Life, we can't help but celebrate 'The Evolutionary Expressionism of Life Energy'. Everything in Life is good beyond good and evil. The Yang/Yin is all encompassed by the whole. It is the perfection of the great 'Artists' within that constantly and consistently achieves through the infinite manifestations at play during this cosmic dance of phenomenal existence. Creativity is an essential process of Life's unfoldment.
NEW BEGINNINGS
"Resentments are the blocks that hold us back from loving ourselves and others. Resentments do not punish the other person they punish us. They become barriers to feeling good and enjoying life. They prevent us from being in harmony with the world. Resentments are hardened chucks of anger. They loosen up and dissolve with forgiveness and letting good and enjoying life. They prevent us from being in harmony with the world. Resentments are hardened chunks of anger. Letting go of resentments does not mean we allow the other person to do anything to us that he or she wants. It means we accept what happened in the past, and we set boundaries for the future. We can let go of resentments and still have boundaries! We try to see the good in the person, or the good that ultimately evolved from whatever incident we feel resentful about. We try to see our past. Then we put the incident to rest. Praying for those we resent helps. Asking God to take our resentments fro us helps too. What better way to begin a new year than by cleaning the slade of the past, and entering this one free of resentments. Higher Power, help me become ready to let go of my resentments. Bring any resentments that are hidden within me, and blocking me, to the surface. Show me what I need to do to take care of myself by letting go of resentments, and then help me do that." - Melody Beattie
It is a New Year, 2004... as the Millennium reveals its century's seedling as grains of sand on the universal beach or a rain drop in the cosmic ocean! What we do within it is the continued process of Human growth, cultivation and development. It is perspective that many things that we've learned and/or learning are rendered to some extent useless, meaningless and unnecessary unless we establish a truth purpose to keep on going. We keep on going because until we have completely mastered all of the inherent qualities ordained to be a Human Being without destroying the genius within our species of ordination; born into the world to emulate the Creative - Divine- Being of the Human; life demands us to be here and now!
Thereby with everything we are by nature, until we totally discover that we haven't any excuses to maintain psychological, emotion and physical dilemmas, past, present and/or future concepts which impels pain and suffering upon one another, we must go on... We haven't any rationale, logic and/or reasons to apologize for being miracles when we are Being a Miracle in peace, loving-kindness, generosity and compassion for all living things.
"Let us not be confused
With kaleidoscopic reality.
Using wisdom and courage to act,
Let us not add to the confusion.
The world is a storm of myriad realities, yet we cannot allow ourselves to be swept into the vortex. To do so is to be lost and to lose the true center where all understanding will come. We must act, but in the right way. Action must be guided by both intellect and experience. We learn from teachers, elders, and others. But we must also test what we learn in the world. It is not enough to simply meditate, and it is not enough just to have theoretical knowledge. We need both in order to be wise. Only when wisdom, courage, timing and perseverance are combined can one have a sound basis for initiative. The action must be complete. It must burn clean; it cannot leave any bad ramifications or lingering traces. An act that leaves destruction, resentment, or untidiness in its wake is a poor one. Then initiative is insufficient, and Tao has not been attained." - Ming Deng-DaoWith kaleidoscopic reality.
Using wisdom and courage to act,
Let us not add to the confusion.
We can turn in the membership card to the 'I AM SORRY CLUB' because we have stopped doing all the things that keeps us paying dues for misery. The "I'm sorry" crowd of the mind is conditioned to say "I'm sorry" for no apparent reason then just to be "I'm sorry" for Being Human. The opening is vast and cannot be continued by mortal structures in denial that "I AM" is an aspect of the greater whole. We 'Artist' reverse the trend of working so hard to BECOME by allowing ourselves to BE.
The gong of time has rung its sounding vibrations throughout the Universal Kingdom and evokes the Clash of Titans on high to mandate the 'I AM EMPOWERED CLUB'.
When observating the historic Hermits of Assisi where a kindred spirit Francis once lived and demonstrated the immaculate conception of the Human Being as divine origin, as well as many others throughout the ages calling upon the celebration of creative genius in the Human species to embrace life totally in peace and harmony as a blessing supreme! One of infinite examples of what is it to Be and Live Free. Francis of Assisi affirms that everything surrounding us reminds us that everything we are here and now as the 'Artist' within the playing field of dreams is Universal. We are the manifestations of life in motion...
The 'Artists' responsibility is to continue to show how we as Human Beings can live in this incredible world of duality without becoming of the world's deluded concepts of reality. It seems that none of us want to hear the inner voice and/or what another has to say, however, the way is very clear, precise and direct to accomplish the task of living in the world without becoming consumed by it. There is the one voice within every Human Being whispering LIVE, LIVE, LIVE! The truth is the truth no matter what interpretation we give it. We are unknown to ourselves and therefore we are determined to know ourselves. The same questions driving the Human spirit for eons to ask the same questions with all the answers provided within the questions asked is the phenomenon of existence.
The 'Artists' motivation through the infinite experiences during the process of Human evolution is to meet the greatest of challenges as the 'Artist', which is being done through determined actions and deeds that by design exemplifies the essential creativity for the conscious awakening of the whole of Humankind to its true nature. As we continue to observe the intricacies of the Human sojourn upon this planet earth, it is amazing to see the newly revitalized and brilliant light of the 'Artist' penetrating through the veils of delusions, deceptions and destruction within the nexus of physiological acrobatics without compromise. The strength of artistic character is being tested. Do we completely unveil the sublime truth of Human nature or do we shy away from this opportunity because of inherited fears? Year upon year we affirm the genius of the 'Artists' capacity to reveal the truth, honesty and integrity of Human nature beyond the visual distractions displayed by our own devices to confuse and conflict the clarity of the mind, body, soul and spirit of our species.
So how does one live in the world without being devoured by all of the stuff it seems to be regurgitating century after century? Very simply, stop doing all the things that keep one from one's total freedom! This ancient wisdom is true. The pain, sorrows and sufferings are detrimental to the Human Being when held onto as the only purpose, reason, rationale and logic to existence via turmoil and trepidation. The truth is that we want freedom from all of the lies, negatives, attachments and their affects upon our Being Human. The unbearable burdens are bearable in life's book of how to burden the unbearable book with its black sea of raindrop tears written on ink soiled paper and wasted wisdom for the lack of insight and taste in this unbearable place where creative properties surmount psychiatric profiles of Human existence.
It is the alabaster of the Human spirit yearning to be free which indicates that freedom is enslaved within constructs of a Medusa's capacity to turn life into stone. However, a master 'Artist' Micheangelo as a sculptor accomplished the mission to free the life from within the granite stone, whereby the breath of life also demonstrated on the living ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome free the spirit from Human Bondage. The 'Artists' must never have any contempt for the world for the world has contempt for itself. When the earth quakes and lives are consumed by its grasp, we are reminded that all things must return from whence it came, therefore to do ones work while in this world is essential. The 'Artist' must do the work that is to be done regardless of consequences, circumstances and/or situations conducive to the destruction of all of life. We marvel the genius produced throughout creation's centuries of Human existence in the Arts, the evolutionary expressionism of life energy is the motivating force encountered as stated previously through the process of Human cultivation, growth and development here and now.
We must experience peak moments in the process of Human transformation otherwise we live without ever having lived through the valleys and shadows of death with ease and grace! When we look into the highly emotionally charged environments which standardizes conflict as a means to collapse the integrity of the Human Being, we assert a power of inner freedom that neutralizes the disruption of the natural flow of loving-kindness, peace and goodwill toward all things created. While we intersperse, rotate and juggle the concepts of existence for shear entertainment, it is prevalent to do this with a great deal of detachment in order to appreciate the perfection of the unknown reality revealing its known reality.
Creativity is transformative and belongs to nothing but that which it creates through the continuation of discovery, exploration and investigation of life. The deeper we go into the unknown the further we expand into dimensions of consciousness which provokes the utmost highest qualities of Human nature to prevail whether we see it or not; where neither the quill or sword are mightier than silence within the artistic expressions of life; where mortal battles cease and desist; and where the raging storms of Human existence fade into oblivion.
When we squeeze the nobility of the Human soul, its the peasant of the Human spirit that feels the pinch and this the 'Artist' attempts to immolate by creative means; to show the integration point of the whole is to encompass all of the halves. We are the one regardless of how many aspects of ourselves we see as separate. The truly high moments of life are never captured, taped or photographed they are lived, experienced here and now in the creative exchanges during 'the evolutionary expressionism of life energy'. Although discussions lead to debates regarding individual as well as collective approaches, methods, and techniques to control the direction the Human species is headed, freedom of the Human spirit is strengthened by applying what is learned to function effectively in a relatively dysfunctional world of peopled thought societies. The total and complete abandonment of fixated, hypnotic and influential manipulations to deaden the Human spirit must be accomplished through the 'Artists' at work if we are to transcend survival mode tactics as a species into a state of bliss while living upon earth.
Everything we are doing, being and having is what it is and continues to be, do and have what it is! The distractions are deterrents to prevent the direct experience of life in its fullness of Being, However...
WE ARE ALL LEARNING
"Let us not deny anybody just because he or she follows a certain path or doesn't follow a certain path. Ultimately we are all learning. If anyone is interested in knowing what practices you are doing, talk about it; explain how you have benefited, but don't try to persuade another to do the same thing.
That is what is meant by the Biblical saying, "Ask and it shall be given." You don't have to go and teach anyone. If someone asks, simply share what you know. If that person wants to follow another path, that's fine too. With such an attitude you will learn to love everyone, respect everyone, and there will be harmony in your life." - Sri Swami Satchidananda
We can let go of post dramatic stress syndromes conceptualized and orchestrated to keep the Human species lethargic. Observations must be keener and actions more specific that will further uncover the plausible deniability of governmental statues that destroy the joy of living freely. The 'Artist' must always be prepared to counterbalance the natural and superficial devastation experienced by Human Beings of this world constantly. We write and read 'How To Books' by the millions and yet they are all insignificant if the principles therein provided are not applied to the maximum that truly guides, points and/or directs any individual to undertake the inherited Freedom to Be an authentic Human Being instead of a clone or carbon copy. What isn't happening is happening and we just don't see it. We are getting what we concentrate upon through the efforts put forth during the daily grind 365 days, including leap year, otherwise we would not be here right where we are in this very moment of fleeting time. The Human Being 'I AM EMPOWERED CLUB' is exponential.

SEASONAL GREETINGS!
"Someone who is about to admonish another must realize within himself five qualities before doing so [that he may be able to say], thus:
"In due season will I speak, not out of season. In truth will I speak, not in falsehood. Gently will I speak, not harshly. To his profit will I speak, not to his loss. With kindly intent will I speak, not in anger."
(from the Vyana a Pitaka, translated by F. S. Woodward)

Poetry #197
ALWAYS THE SAME MIRACLE
Golden trim mountain
Sun breaks it's apex
Glow fills the sky
Rose dramatically
A joy to do meditation
The time spent full
The work to be done.
Happy, relaxed various
Images, approaches,
Comments of the society
Snow boarding nirvana.
Near complete routine process,
Not product,
Is always invisible and
Becomes visible - recognized
In myriad world affairs
Mundane events!
Directed actions,
The range of potentials explored
The medium both
Artist and materials viewed.
The development, skills and
Capacity merge according
To the frequency of the fields
Manifesting abilities natural
Fleeting of physical time.
The activities clock measured
Time relative to product in terms
One may want to accomplish.
The multiple interwoven consciousness
That concurrently happen
Sounds, sights, movements
In the environs' bang!
The simple steps
The old frame,
Cell position disappears
The new is formed
The magic
The movement
Let alone
The complexity orchestrated
As slow motion.
Media shows, street scenes, flower's
Insects visit and depart
Integrated planes with precision
Life in the midst of wondrous
Incredible feat of consciousness.
The filtering senses layer creation
Normally as reality is truly
Amazing to contemplate
Even remotely being possible,
Yet, automatically taking place
As one enters it's frame.
To imagine going beyond it,
Be able to function at all within it,
Without seeming to lose being
So fragmented and blown apart
At even the concept of it.
Then an hour into the session journey
Awakening within the dream,
Whatever that point of eternity
In the now is perceived to be
Dimensions simultaneously at once.
The source compressed time
To mind
To accomplish task in short
Amounts of clock images
To output and script too.
