IV

 

 

 Every culture of our planet

reflects a different facet

from the interior source of life.

The shape of beauty may change

as the chemical wasteland settles

into our marrow.

The Heart of Life shall continue to burn

through the variations of beauty,

for the Heart of Life knows no boundaries

when it comes to the forms of life.

 

*

 

Listen for the Rain-drop inside the cloud.

Listen for the Voice of the Rain-drop

within the shell of troposphere.

On another side of the measurement

of one Day into one after another,

is the music

of One Day alternating with One Night.

 

*

  

*

Having lived within the City, deep within the pit:

Having painted a picture on the wall of a room:

Through the picture, through the wall of the City,

Look to the time from where the City has come.

*

Life emerges from the Rock.

Life returns to the Rock.

We are the faces of Rapa Nui,

growing out of the Earth,

within the Ring of water over fire,

within the plant of fire eating water.

*

First Rock takes a shape.

Water grinds it to Sand,

and dissolves it to atoms,

before the heat of Sun-fire

begins the reaction

into our Chain-of-Life.

*

Our flesh has grown out of the Rock.

The seeds of recollection

are embedded within Rock.

Where we have come from is where we are going.

The Rock is Our destination.

 

*

 

*

Rock returns to the Fire.

Cloud-water returns to the Ocean.

Fire returns to the Water.

Another cycle of Life begins.

*

Rock grows into Tree-by-the-Lake.

Roots drink from the water table.

Breath of the leaf is extinguished

by Fire-in-the-Rain.

Tree burns away,

returning to Cloud and the Rock.

*

Sun fire continues to warm the Ocean

which breathes through fire in the water.

The fire within Rock burns within flesh.

When the Rock melts

and returns to the Twins

of fire and water,

The Wind may scatter

the seeds of recollection

to the Twin continents

of Ollin and Oceanus,

and to the Twin oceans:

the Indo-Pacific and the Arctic-Atlantic.

The seeds of recollection

may find a new path

for return into Life.

 

*

 

*

Draw the Line from the Pyramid and Sphinx of Giza,

to the Gates of Vairacoca at Lake Titicaca.

Continue this line across the water,

past the masks of Rapa Nui,

through the Gates of Tonga,

to Her-by-the-Lake at Harappa.

This Line is one division

of the globe into hemispheres.

There is a geometric poem

written round our sphere.

Our Words in Speech carry through Time

beyond the written word,

as the message is passed on.

Isotopes and additives rain into the story

told through the necklace ecliptic,

from the time of the first point of Aqua.

*

Through the precessional cycle of 26000 years,

each of the thirteen links of the necklace

describes a period of 2000 years.

*

Between the sky of Rainbow, Cloud, and Wind-VAYU,

and the sky of the story told

through the necklace ecliptic,

is the sky of the story told between Surya, Luna,

and their children the wanderers,

of whom I am One.

*

  

*

Many stories pass through speech,

telling the tales of the wanderers

through the necklace.

Over land and over water,

the signs which tell the story

of the necklace ecliptic

are written into Rock.

Follow the necklace

through the western horizon

and take a journey by land and sea

through the Circle of the Thirteen Knots.

The curtain of the necklace ecliptic

covers the window through the wall.

This is the place to where

all of the stories converge.

The path through the past to tomorrow

is through Speech and Listen.

 

*

 

*

The necklace ecliptic circles the globe

and her story is told

through the geometric language ,

between the sites of construction at Giza,

Titicaca,

Rapa Nui,

Tonga,

and Harappa-Mohenjo-Daro.

*

Horizon over mountain peak vanishes

into horizon at sea-level vanishing

into horizon through Wind-VAYU.

Horizon of Speech draws the Line of a Story

through the necklace ecliptic.

Listen for the Story, and look over Horizon

of necklace ecliptic.

The timing of eclipse of Surya,

and eclipse of Luna,

is measured by the geometry of rotation,

and the Story told through the necklace

is of the revolution as well as of the precession.

*

The line drawn across the land

and through the stars,

is a mark for the path across the water.

The theme between places is the Face in the Rock,

looking over Dawn's horizon

towards the source of speech

in the Story within the necklace ecliptic.

 

*

  

*

In Speech through Wind-VAYU,

One Voice speaks around a single theme,

the life of flesh and the source of mind

within our Heart.

Our voice is the bridge

across Night between Twice-a-Day-Dawn.

*

From the western shore of Ollin

to the Eastern shore of Oceanus,

the northern route is overland

following the mountain chain,

while the southern route is by wind over water

following the necklace ecliptic.

*

We wanderers who follow the Rock and the Star

through our Speech,

may find a time and place on occasion

to carve a Face into Rock,

to site a landmark on the route.

Her-by-the-Lake as a place for Gathering,

is a Temple of the necklace ecliptic

carved into Rock.

 

*

 

*

The Culture of the Rock and the Star

circles the globe with a story

told through the necklace ecliptic.

*

In the quartering of the Earth from Cuzco

one may follow the Star through the necklace ecliptic,

down the Western slope of the Andes,

through the Pacific archipelago,

across the southern rim of Himalaya,

through Giza,

across Sahara and Atlantic,

across Ollin-South,

returning to Cuzco.

*

One may follow the Rock, the Chain of Rock

from Tierra del Fuego, the point of the Horn

of Ollin-South, along the path of the Andes,

through the Isthmus of Maya and Aztec,

to the Chain of Rock of North-Ollin.

*

Between OLLIN and OCEANUS,

the Strait of Yuit-Kinugumiut

links the Arctic-Atlantic to the Indo-Pacific.

Follow then the Chain of Rock

through the range of Dzhugdzhur,

Past the East rim of Tibet,

to the Isthmus of Kra

and the Strait of Malacca. . . . .

 

*

*

 

Where the Chain of Rock spreads two arms,

*

One South and East, through the Java Sea

to the Coral Sea, to the Tasman Sea,

where the Indo-Australian archipelago

reaches into the West Wind Drift.

*

While the other reaches North and West

through Himalayan-Caucasus to the Alpine-Pyrennes

on the northern shore of our Mediterranean Basin.

*

The center of Oceanus is Giza.

The center of Ollin is Tikal.

*

The Culture of the Rock and the Star

tells a Story for whom-ever

would know this planet

through the nature of place where She is.

*

Within the timing of the calendar stone,

and the knots of the necklace ecliptic,

and the celestial river - MAYU, our Galaxy,

and between the twin turtles

of North-Ollin-South,

is one Source for our thought

through Twice-A-Day-Dawn.

* 

*

Between the Wind and the Rock,

to forge the Link between opposites,

in creation of our myth,

is to pass from one sphere to another

and to cross a wider stream.

 

*

 

From Gibralter through Crete,

the axis of the Mediterranean

extends in an arc through the Caspian,

the Aral, the Balkash and the Baikal,

to follow the curve of the Aleutian shelf

to the string of the five beads of water

on North-Ollin.

 

* 

*

The symbol of a symbol

is a symbol further removed.

The thunderbolt of penetrating wisdom

opens the door to the clear light.

*

This verse is from RoseViolet

through the Calendar Stone

to the Black-top pit.

 

*

  

*

Emerging from the ground

of North Turtle and South Turtle,

connected through the Isthmus of Maya

and the Caribbean archipelago,

One Voice alternates

between speech from yesterday

and speech into tomorrow.

The bridge is RoseViolet at Twice-a-Day-Dawn.

The point of departure and destination

is the necklace ecliptic

from Tree-by-the-Lake.

 

*

  

*

Surface of Sky covers the Dome.

Surface of grass covers the plain.

Surface of cloud covers the sky.

Surface of Sea covers the emptiness.

*

Twin turtles of Ollin are linked

through the Isthmus of Yucatan,

the Caribbean archipelago,

and the celestial river of stars, MAYU, our galaxy,

which crosses the necklace ecliptic.

*

Listen to the voice of several geese

flying through Dawn over OLLIN,

under the thick gray cloud

between Blue and the Lake.

*

The Ancestors of the calendar stone speak

through the Voice

between the flying goose and the turtle,

another version of the feathered serpent.

 

*

 

*

 

The dark waters at the bottom of the pool

are glossed over by the light on the surface.

The Rock is on Fire with invisible flame.

Wind carries the heat to all parts of our flesh.

All Movement is measured and balanced,

so as through the symbol of Tao,

so as through the symbol of Ollin,

The Twin Rectangles

at the Heart of the Aztec calendar stone.

 

*

The sphere of fire is covered by water,

and through the surface of interaction

emerges the Rock and the Sky.

The Earth is colored Blue

all the way around from the outside,

and the forest is a patch of moss

growing out of the Rock.

The spores of the lichen may cling to the Rock

and may eat the Rock.

From out of the Rock grows Tree-by-the-Lake.

Roots draw water to the Leaf,

where exchange occurs with the Sky.

 

*

  

*

The Rock and the Sky

are the children of Fire and Water.

Life is the breath between Rock and the Sky,

burning the fire of the Blue flame

within our Heart.

Rock is the silk between fire and water.

Rock comes alive through the touch

of whom through a chisel

sees the carved stone face.

The Voice through the Rock

is for We who Listen and Speak

around Rock given life through the chisel.

*

Of the Wind, the Rock, the Tree, and the Lake:

The Tree is a fire burning the Rock.

The Wind is the knife which cuts down the Tree.

The Lake is the pool into which the Rock falls.

The Sound is for We who know Listen and Speech.

Climb the cliff and listen to hawk soaring

through the valley over the Lake.

Hawk carries a message

from the room in the cliff on one side of the lake,

to the room in the cliff on the other side.

The light of Sun on feather of the hawk,

is Hawk Feather through the Wind,

the Sound of the Message.

 

*

  

*

Live with the Star of Peace,

the sphere of Blue Light

this planet is

in outer space,

the flash of Blue Light

between the Heart

and what is known to be True.

 

**

 

From one side of Our Globe to another,

Listen at Dawn, Twice a Day.

Listen in Blue and in Black

and through Dawn.

The path of Peace on Earth

is Now Follow Our Love.
