We can bring

lunar wisdom back we can bring these things that were cut away to allow the western ego to have its day and it can come back in from all kinds of places and the only way it can come in is through the people alive at a time and some of them are us and our little job is to be the best vessel we can be and then all of a sudden we're connected to something that's giving us a vitality

and purpose and meaning and a connection to beauty.

And you can put up with a lot of crap if you have some connection to those things.

Some of the African musicians and healers I got connected to would have this saying, that is what you're saying from a different angle.

They would say, nature is spirit with a green garment on.

And what they were saying is when you go to nature, you're going to spirit.

That's exactly how they understood it.

And the birds are in a certain level are spirit, literally them because they're flying.

But also the plants that you were talking about are like a part of spirit.

I know they're part of, you know, you can measure it and there's all kinds of science about it.

And some of that stuff's really valuable, but they are also more than that.

A tree is a sacred thing as well as a rooted thing.

And the same thing happens, of course, people can feel the spirit of animals and birds and all.

That's all natural.

And when we lose those natural connections,

It's also a sign that we've lost our own connections to the way spirit comes through us.

And so when we get more connected to our own spirit, we become more available to the presence of spirit around us.

And as you've said several times, that's a joyous thing.

And in the midst of the Kali Yuga dark times, we need joyous things as well as the capacity to change.
