Stranger things

[Nungali]

My 'friend' has returned to spend time here  ... flew down from New Guniea ... all that way .... 

 

to sit outside my window day and night ( sometimes at 4 am ! ) to constantly call  out in a rising panicked crescendo  for .... I dont know what ... and then fly all the way back home again .

A delightful young lady . 

 

I went down to the river beach yesterday . Nice and quiet and very beautiful ... especially after the festival throngs have gone .... had it all to myself ;   we finally got good rain, river is up and clear and fresh , new large pebble banks / beaches from the last flood  and a bright green shady rain forest surrounds .   But someone was there .   Oh !  its   'young Janis Joplin '   (as one of the elder indigenous referred to her at the festival  -  she borrowed a guitar down by the river  during the festival and belted out a song  ... to the stunned crowd ; a very strong and good voice for such a slight young woman ) .

 

She is my friend's young niece  that has moved here ' as a base' for a while .  She had  an art pad and was sketching a  human butterfly or an angel    as she was  sitting by the river bank under the shade of  cedar tree       ... ahhh to be young again . 

 

We left at the same time , her ;  ''Oh !  I forgot ! ''

 

''What did you forget ? '' 

 

'' I came down here to smoke a joint and I forgot to ''   

 

 

 

Me ; '' Well, there you go then . ''

 

'' What ? That I dont   even need a joint to be forgetful ?''

 

'' No . That  the place was so good and you are in such a good space that you didnt need it anyway . '' 

 

We went and had an indepth chat as she is very interested in magic, ritual, study,  yoga , astrology,  astronomy , religion  , cultivation, etc .  (its in the family tree .. Grandma was a CoMason and Auntie , my friend, is very into that stuff and has  being doing some sessions with her)  .    She drilled me with questions  and at the end ;  '' How can I find out about this stuff , how do you learn this stuff ? I want to do it .' How do I get where you are ?  ''

 

Me; '''  Its easy .  Just read , study,  practice,  incorporate, balance, and work with others  and  anything associated with it  ..... then keep doing that for 50 years  .''

 

  

 

God luv 'er .... she wanted to dedicate herself to it on the spot .  But, of course , she is running off with  a nice young fellow to the next festival in the state south of here ... so after that , but wait !  after that, there is one in the state north of here ... and after that  there is this big party coming up    .....   

 

Ahhhh .... the 'folly' of youth .   She is just like her Auntie ... and I was  , at that age .

.....    Hey Man .... we built this giant teepee thing

I like learning new words on occasion, not ordinary words but stranger words.  I wrote about anemoia on the previous page, and today I accidentally came across the lyrics of Bad Boys (it used to be the opening song of a TV show popular in the '90s) and learned idren.  It's a Rastafarian term made out of "I" and "brethren" (or "sistren" -- it's gender neutral) that means "me and my spiritual brothers and sisters," "me and all my people."  Interestingly, it sounds like one of those Chinese words where "ren" -- meaning "person" -- at the end forms a term of belonging to a group (e.g. Meiguoren -- American, Zhongguoren -- Chinese, and so on.. )    

 

The daobumren are strange.

Cats are also telepathic

 

 

 

 

I may have seen evidence cats can tell what I'm thinking.

 

They communicate through body language, etc. 

 

And are very good at reading posture and gestures, etc.

[Nungali]

and dogs ... and   pre vocal babies .  I find some babies VERY telepathic   - almost as if their internal spirit is still very close to 'the surface '  ... as they get older it gets buried in layers of   .....    'stuff'  . 

 

 

 

 

'' What ?  ... You didnt hear that ? Okay , I'll try harder  .......         bring  ..... food ...... now  ....... 

 

?  

 

I dont have to start that crying business again do I   ?  ''

I was probably a simple sailor who loved the sea,  thus without such secret knowledge,  if I had that  past life...

 

speaking of the sea here are some sea creatures being helped...incredible

looks like they had some special release agents/soaps besides the water sprays and several other tools to help loosen all those gobs of barnacle type  plants from the whales and other animals skin...

 

(yes, apparently the monk seal is almost extinct, except for this one !?)

Apparently even otters get barnacles   (  @ 8:10  )  

 

'' Giant otter compromised ! '''          (  love her uniform   )  

 

or at 8:48  where the scuba divers are blowing bubbles     in the air   before they dive in . 

 

Youse guys crack me up       

 

next giant sea otter gets a scrubby vac thing  ( one of the many gadgets on board   )    and then , for some reason , a hosing that comes out of the middle of  fan on a stand .  Then some more handroller vacs  ... then switch to a good hand scrub with soft sponges inside a medical facility with  people wearing  hospital 'scrubbs' ... then back outside on board for some rotary scrubbing  ( hospital gowns and gloves not needed for this bit ...   dont miss 14 :08 where now the  otter scrubbering gadgets have turned into backhoes with special attachments .

 

next up ... the roaming   animal scrubbing boat comes across an 'extinct seal'   ... no not a fossil .. a real   'extinct' animal    

 

guy pointing at it  '' the animal is extinct now '' ... not to worry its reported in to animal scrubbing HQ   @  16:16    and the rescue team runs down the corridor again  ... pauses , turns and a magc doorway was behind them all the time , they run through it 

 

dont miss  17:40  for the magical scuba dance and the way they enter the water ,   also the voice over seems stuck and keeps saying the same thing over and over again ... even different people keep saying it . 

 

the lift at  18:19 is spectacular  (  ly hilarious )  ... now its more scrubbing with machines,  corrosive chemicals , and stiff brushing while the animal calmly   basks  on the deck . 

 

Did whoever made this ( and whatever for ) did they really think it ANYONE would take it seriously  ?? 

 

and why  are the number of these postings  and 'sharings' ....     increasing  ?  

 

and why cant  some people detect such bad AI at first glance .... even from the title still frame    it was obvious . 

 

My guess is, if people see enough of this , and they are so dim and unaware that they cant tell the difference , then they will be flooded with them until that  replaces  'real footage ' for them  .... by the way 'real footage ' does not exist anymore , that s the conclusion we will have to come to . 

 

now .. stay tune for an interruption to daobums while we cut to a live broadcast  from the President   about the current immanent disaster , and what you will all  need to do ......

It was, which is why I didn't watch it.  (The reason I pressed the "like" button is, I sometimes do that in acknowledgement of someone's contribution to keeping alive a thread which I don't want to fall by the wayside.)

   

Why did you watch it?

Thanks for posting that. I did notice lots of odd things, but had not thought of AI; good to be reminded to think of it.

not to worry,  being that if or when the atomic bombs fall most of us and the natural world will be vaporized, thus our almighty intellects,  profound achievement's or "non-duality" sayings will not be enough to hold back the karma we have made.  Btw., and in that case the gods and masters won't be able to protect all of us or other life forms, including our families, friends and associates along with all the young kids in the world from horrific suffering,  granted some folks will be lifted up for long-time sojourns in nice astral worlds per their karma...  in the meantime after (?) who knows how many years the Earth will finally be purified and recovered and then spiritualized souls will finally be able to come back here.  A side note: the old time dictators like Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and a hundred others are "small fry" compared to demon of the 7th hell now at the gates.  "Fear not" still holds true but is a very long ways down the tunnel...Take care during this dark night until the morning sun shines.
