Self Hood

All living beings have Self-hood

trees, plants, animals, humans

but only humans question where this

sense of Self came from

the rest of Nature dances in the bliss of Self

while only humans are ignorant of the deep Self

that is the same Self in all Beings,

That’s why nature gives us plants that can open our minds, our inner vision

to the erotic dance of infinity throbbing in creation

and the ecstatic bliss of existence…

and why nature gives us the body which through pleasure, and pain,

through love, and intoxication, through dance, exercise and sex

can reveal its inner treasures, can open us to the next

level of human evolution

the birth of the cosmic Self,

at One with the world around us

no longer driven to fight and fuss and cuss

aware of the Oneness as are the animals

and the Wholeness of the body and mind –

the birth of multidimensional human kind.

IN US LIES A DEEPER KNOWING

THAN OUR MINDS CAN EVER FULLY GRASP

WHEN WE SURRENDER TO THE DIVINE WITHIN

WE CAN NOW TRUE PEACE AT LAST.

But the path to peace is not direct

nor is it straight and narrow

it dives and ducks, enthralls us

and fucks us up

it breaks our chains

and can seem to drive us insane

BUT THIS IS THE NATURE OF THE GAME.

We need to anchor ourselves in a sense of spiritual unity

in nature and in community

find meaning in our lives

and learn the lessons from our strife

celebrate and respect all life.

Life is a unity of spirit and matter

of mind and emotion,

of self-hood and transcendent Self:

through the destruction of our illusions

the Cosmic Age of Aquarius is born.

i am shokti, lovestar of the eurofaeries, aka marco queer magician of london town. i explore the links between our sexual-physical nature and our spirits, running gatherings, rituals and Queer Spirit Festival. i woke up to my part in the accelerating awakening of light love and awareness on planet earth during a shamanic death-and-rebirth process lasting from January 1995 to the year 2000, and offer here my insights and observations on the ongoing transformation of human consciousness, how to navigate the waves of change, and especially focusing on the role of queer people at this time.
