“Zen says:  Think of all the great words and great teachings as your deadly enemy.  Avoid them, because you have to find your own source. You have to not be a follower, an imitator.  You have to be an original individual;  you have to find your innermost core on your own, with no guide, no guiding scriptures.  It is a dark night, but with the intense fire of inquiry you are bound to come to the sunrise."

-Osho (controversial spiritual teacher)

I find his writings (the little I’ve been exposed to) to be pretty stimulating,  he is a “crazy wisdom” master, pushing boundaries and can be easily misunderstood;  he seems to use shock as part of his teaching.

I pulled cards today and part of the reading included these cards from the [amazon_link id=”0312117337″ target=”_blank” ]Osho Zen Deck[/amazon_link]:  Pele/Intensity, the second card is meant to help deepen the interpretation of the first card.

Pele: means “Divine Passion”  Listen to your dream, follow your hearts true desire for it will propel and invigorate and excite you. Pele is a Hawaiian volcano goddess.  The Intensity card’s explanation is the quote first paragraph above.  This card is similar to the knight of wands in tarot.   But here specific meaning is, “the opinions of others matter little, nothing can hold you back right now.  You move with an intensity that will uplift & refresh some and cause others to feel threatened and annoyed!” You can see how the two cards support each other.  Other cards in the six  card draw said, work with others to achieve more than any of  you could alone.  And reiterating the two cards above I got Eireen “peace” and below that a card called “burden,” meaning drop the burden of outside expectations and ideas it shows a tired man carrying a very proud man with a rooster-on his shoulders.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

I’m revamping this blog, widening it, it will probably be more interesting for you and ideas are just flooding my mind.   I’m very excited about it and will write more on it tomorrow.  I also got another card that says “you are clinging to the past, and it’s keeping you poor and restricted, as you are missing what’s available now.” 

Are you listening to your inner PELE?

Or are you allowing the burdens/expectations of others and of the past to hold you back?  How do you discover your inner passion that is uniquely your expression?  Watch for signs, be attentive.  For me my days now-have become a series of signs-the magazines I pick up, the songs that may be playing, things that seem “accidental,” are meaningful.  They literally will have a theme.  As energy shifts on this planet our faculties are awakening– be open to that. This is made much easier-if you put a spiritual practice into place see Mindfulness Meditation or 5 Reasons Meditation Is Better Than Sex. Or any regular sadhana of your choice-that is a disipline of a spiritual nature done regularly with committment. Meditation is highly recommended as it allows us to clear out a lot of the mental and emotional baggage and go beyond our ordinary mind.  We see how “muddy,” our ordinary mind is by getting incredible clarity (with practice.)
