my ways to the core of change
  
GETTING TO THE CORE OF IT ~ my personal keys
"Always remember that when you started working, that there was something inside yourself that you felt, that if you could manifest it in some way, you would understand more about yourself, how you co-exist with the rest of society" 
~ David Bowie
 
I mirror myself in these words and the spirit behind. Every time an emerging experience of my core (maybe showing as an image, a parable, a personal myth) has landed in me, it immediately made me feel equally part of the everyday life of a human race, so apparently alike and yet diversely designed.
 
The words also inspired me to listen into my own essential drive. 
This was what came through..

"my optimal experience is to touch that power that hits the note you didn't know you had in you. that erases time and age and ego and keep you knowing the force is real. more real than this reality"
 
 
One of the things I love the most is to stand in the circle, let the words and energies from the subtleties in and beyond me, flow through my body and heart into the expression ~ creating me, creating the moment, creating something that wouldn't otherwise come into being
~ feeling it uplifting, expanding my field of clarity ~ envisioning it mingle with the shared field of today's constellation of people and the dimensions beyond.
It is a flow through words, vocal sound, movement of my body parts, dancing with the energies available.
With my inherited and inherent intention, I trust that what emerges is in accordance with the purpose that is within me, in this skin, on this planet, at this time.
 
 
ENERGY is my vehicle..
How I perceive and sense 'meaning' is when I sense it in my energy field as doing something 'right' to me ~ to the situation I'm in, to the greater fields of existence.
When expressed through me, it comes from embodying the feelings, the stories of my process, or what's in the air at this moment. Intuition being fed by what others bring to the circle. 
 
Having a history within the performing grassroot arts (poetic/cosmic clowning, vocal sound and body energyflow), I still feel for expressions in that field, but also feel a pull towards the forming arts and their radiance ~ searching into the heart of matter, without the ambition of the artist, with the surrendering, non-performing energy of the magician.
 
In my creative expression I've always been engaged in the synergy between therapy (my own thoughts and feelings being processed) ~ energy awareness (healing and transforming powers) ~ and their influence on the outcome ~ the artistic outcome (sometimes that is cooking a meal, it could be some kind of energetic/spiritual articism through a happening or a street performance)
 
These three elements (mainly the first two), too are central to the space I here call you to.
 
 
My eyes towards other beings
Heading towards Elderhood I'm getting more and more fascinated by the paths of other creatures 'true to themselves' - in whatever way it shows itself. This includes the neighbours cat and the tree I pass on my walk. There is so much to learn and be inspired by from those I, at first glance, don't feel familiar with, and so many traps when I think I do.
That leaves me now more open to rediscover myself and any relation with new eyes - from where true intuition has a chance to work its ways.

All in all it leaves me really curious in any focused, intentional setting and leaves me hopeful that there is so much dancing with the universe, on this earth, still waiting to be embodied, in service of what I like to think of as ~ a greater will of good.

It is obvious to me that the human race do not possess the ruling principle on this earth ~ but I do beleive we hold a great influence as individuals or community within a greater realm of laws we may not fully understand.
What we may call evolution of biology, of nature, of human consciousness, what we may call God and the divine, the galaxies, the universe, the mystery ~ if it is different layers of the same wholeness, why can't we just respect that each of us focus - and may be designed differently and thus find their wisdom in different areas and ways!
For myself that involves close attention to the wisdom of my body, as it holds my passion, pain and pressure ~ my empathy, guts and heart. It is my intuitive guarantor ~ my lie'n'truth detector ~ my receiver station as a channellig instrument ~ the temple of my soul.
I feel a need to embrace oppositions and all levels of life and different dimensions of the more-than-human. It includes my fears of life and death and my duty to deal with wounds and deamons, to unfold love and kindness in a way that promotes clarity, aliveness, uplifted spirit and commitment.
 
 
A STATEMENT ~ one heart amongst many
 
In the center of my being there is a force that holds me.
From where I shine my light ~ from where that unfolds which is still not revealed.
I need a field 'n space to grow into standing persistently in that core
and unfold my potential in interaction with spirit, with people and the planet.
 
I subtlety/actively wish and intend to relate to 'that which is' 
~ in this moment ~ in this place ~ on this beautiful earth.
I aim to stand strong ~ 
wisely, trustingly, truthfully, lovingly ~ guided by spirit
~ for the sake of the present ~ as a seed of the future.

Looking back - finding lasting relevance..
The album; 'Elden är lös' by Mikael Wiehe & Kabaréorkestern (1979) is vigorous, visionairy music. It has been living in my transmutative revolutionary blood since my youth. Recently rediscovered it, I realized that it holds so much relevance in today's transmutative world - also in the eyes of the energetical/spiritual activist I am today.
 
The east-west-genre-fusioning and the global, human action-oriented mindset, still touches my core and my spark.
My vision has always been one of subtle activism - an inner knowing that change IS HAPPENING in our consiousness. And that IT IS here, regardless of the dramas and apocalyptic narratives, so easily influencing our feelings, causing fear and reactions.
 
Even though it speaks from a slightly other level, this music makes me feel I'm not alone in the world.
And it revitalises my trust in the magic undercurrent, that I perceive as building a new energetic and physical foundation for life on earth ~ in so many ways flowing through people, through the tiny and the grand, around the planet.
 
 
Lyrics in Swedish and my English translation
(with one addition in brackets)
 
 
Där viljan hos dom många blir till handling
Där genomgår världen en våldsam förvanling
Att hoppas och tro verkar inte längre löjligt
Inget er givet, men allting är möjligt
 
Where the will of the many turns into action
The world goes through a drastic change
To hope and to believe, no longer seems weird or ridiculous
Nothing is a given, but everything is possible
 
 
Från öknarna och djunglerna och bergen
Sprider sig exemplet över världen
Som tusen eldar flammar det i natten
Elden är lös, vem ska ta fatt den
 
From deserts and jungles and mountains
The instance spreads across the world
Like a thousand fires, it blazes in the night
The fire is loose, who will catch it
 
 
Fanor och flagger smattrar i vinden
Sångarna stiger som ballonger mot himlen
Fängelsernas dörrar och fönster står öppna
Nu dansar dom, arbetets söner och döttrar 
 
Banners and flags flutter in the wind
The songs rise like balloons to the sky
The doors and windows of the prisons stand open
Now they dance, those sons and daughters of labor
(these children of the effort that came before us)
