living is a kind of a mystery journey...

namaste

I honour the place in you where the entire universe resides.

I honour the place in you of love, of light, of truth, of peace.

I bow to your divine spirit, to your inherent buddhahood,

to the great ball of sunshine that radiates from your heart.

 Timothy Burgain (www.yogabasics.com)

 

if you have a photo that can illustrate these feelings, please show us!

4th chakra pseudo-group

 Caroline Myss (www.myss.com/) states in her book called 'Anatomy of the Spirit', [Harmony Books, 1996] referring the seven chakras that the harmony and balance in this points are utterly important to our health. Every philosophy no matter what religion sustain have a common approach to these fundamental points in our body and surly this subject overcomes every physic boundaries. Every culture has understood the elementary significance of our equilibrium as a whole and body reacts when our spirit is troubled.
 
The 4th chakra, which is mainly related with the heart and the diaphragm, is responsible for the feelings as love, hate, resentment, bitterness, disappointment, anger, egocentrism, loneliness, commitment, forgiveness, compassion, hope and trust.
 
To reach the sense of balance between all those feelings we have to listening every signs and most illness come from disturb and exhausted minds and spirits...
 
So in this pseudo-group I propose that we share our photos giving the most of us to picture the feelings of 4th chakra... as searching for harmony between heart and body.
 
Lets get our pictures and make a chain of what we feel everyday [4th chakra].
 
If it is possible add a short text, a feeling, a though, a poem, a quote.
 

Thank you.

wander and tea

 

In my wandering walks occasionally it’s nice to find a different shop. I’m not too much keen on consuming philosophy, but it’s nice to visit now and then enjoyable places…especially old shops. A few days ago I discovered a pleasant teashop, maybe is a common concept where you live, but in Portugal is totally new.
The Portuguese Catherine of Braganza (pt.:Catarina de Bragança), who was married with Charles II of England, introduced tea ritual in English royal court. Since then English have started to consume tea. Although the only European tea plantation is located in Azores, Portuguese are not so keen on tea as English, but we are starting to appreciate it. We produce there the Gorreana Tea (a green tea).
 
I’m not intend to make explicit publicity, but I wish to share with you a peaceful and insightful moment. This shop is called first flush (o espírito do chá) and it is running by a calm and polite women called Ana Rita. There is also a beautiful website, only in Portuguese :-( but is worthy to visit it, even if you don’t understand the language, you can see marvellous pictures from plantations around the world. First flush is located in a centre of Lisbon in a quiet street and sells teas from every corner of the world, it’s an elegant shop and you can also buy interesting tea accessories such as tea pots, cups, etc. In my opinion to appreciate tea is necessary to have a proper atmosphere, when we buy it and when we taste it.

If one day you will come to Portugal, and for luck you pass by Lisbon, I strongly advice a visit to this place. You will enjoy it; there are special scents there. This is a shop for tea lovers!

welcome to my ipernity journey

Artist: Cocorosie
Album: The Adventures of Ghosthorse and Stillborn
Year: 2007
Title: Animals


Now that I'm alone I feel the lonely brokenness
Of all the wicked avenues I've ever sold my love on
All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided
I'm the outright abandon of this orphan child
Home is on the highway living on soft bread and solace
I guess I'm waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse
And to wake up half empty
Only to be filled again with mourning
He's my evil shadow dove
My black Palamito
Can't break him like a diamond skull
I can't seem to do so
Can't just rob him out like the
Mob used to do so
Like memories of porno and tearstains
And tobacco O it's a mini disastro
Bigger than the ice age don't know if baby dinosaurs
Maybe could live through it, like Indians and butterflies
What's crushed is my spirit, Oh I fear it is too fragile
Like fall leaves burn like paper

I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
No one would understand me
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
Spend all my time amongst the animals
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals

Oh I'm just a fill leaf something simple and shy lie that
That's how my heart lies down beside the sidewalk
Like an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloons
I sit and entertain the bisarro ghosts of my soul
His name still lingers maybe lactates on my tongue
Perhaps I'm just teething for a foreign fallen destiny
Miserable but mine, I look like his mother
Or Sophia Loren in an old fashioned movie
Slow motion I cling to my child desperate for love
One day soon my brother died, made me remember all the
Subordinate feelings I cast aside
Maybe I had lied when I said I was ok
Just getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say
"Wild willow, windy winter won't you blow through me
My whole eternity"
