Be silent, for this tongue of yours is the enemy of the soul. Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation. In silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.

This is the Sri Yantra, one of the oldest and most powerful symbols in human history. It’s the Hindu symbol for Creativity & Enlightenment. It is conceived as a place of spiritual pilgrimage. It is a representation of the cosmos at the macrocosmic level and of the human body at the microcosmic level (each of the circuits correspond to a chakra of the body).
getting the triagles of the Sri Yantra on Monday, because I met an amazing artist who is wise with age and upon meeting meeting filled with me all sorts of information ranging from the aging of tattoos to the history of the Fallen Angels. He had this on his wall, waiting for someone he could use as his canvas. I told him I was looking to do a Sacred Geometry peice before I knew he had already had this image in mind..
Becca! That’s rad
United Visual Artists - Vanishing Point, Berlin (2013)
Vanishing Point employs perspective as both tool and visual outcome to reshape, redefine and represent a space. Inspired by sketches of Leon Battista Alberti, Leonardo DaVinci and Albrecht Dürer, UVA sends lines into space from an arbitrary vanishing point, creating different volumes, divisions and rooms to be explored by the audience.

Mandalas and Jung.
Mandalas and Jung.
Jung compared the mandala with the human eye in a morfologic and a spiritual way.
The human eye is like a mandala because it represents the see, the light and the conciousness. It contemplates the universe, absorbs cosmic energy and show it to the spirit. It´s the union between you and the cosmos.
The circles of the mandala represents the ocular iris, and the presence of a lot of circles was the interpretation of the unconciousness as a multiple conciousness.
Rumi (via cosmofilius)
"Remembering your true nature is all about tapping into your divine imagination. As spoken of previously, there is an essence within you which is called “the inner child" and as mentioned this part of your self is in full charge of your imagination and is the part of yourself which is the most connected with the Higher Self. The inner child is the most connected to the Higher Self because it does not place limitations on things as much - as it is the most un-influenced part of the self in regards to its concept of reality. The inner child is the most in touch with all twelve of the human perceptions. This is why it is vital to nourish your inner child and work through your shadow issues so that you may liberate it further. Your Higher Self exists in a state beyond linear time or dimensional restrictions. These two concepts apply only to those who are playing a role within the lower densities which humans are also a part of - as it is a necessary for the experience of your soul upon your planet. The concept of time’s illusion is hard to express to beings who are trapped within it. One must understand that past, future, and a perception of the present based upon these two are all illusions. Time, like parallel realities, is much like an ocean which ripples in different ways based upon how you touch it. Those ripples effect your concept of now. Your concept of now helps you wield the manifestation of the future. The great paradox for you is that time can only be effected with being within the now moment, but to manifest the now you must tap into the future and past. This is why the energetic nest is crucial as a home base. One aligns themselves with their Higher Self when one begins to redefine themselves through pulling on the resources of parallel selves of other realities within the present and integrating these aspects of self into a whole sense of self based on how you wish to define yourself. One integrates desirable traits of their parallel lives by working with the timelines of the ‘past’ to define the present. When the present is defined and desirable then the future becomes malleable. This is the art of self-creation in its fullest and of stepping into your personal power by not allowing anything else to have power over you. When one aligns with their Higher Self they begin the process of ascension through density, as the Higher Self is the first major anchor point of this path. This is done through time travel balanced with planetary consciousness. Time travel is only possible with the use of the divine imagination. All parallel selves have different pasts which effect different outcomes in the concept of the ‘now’. The past defines a person in a positive or negative manner based upon how they react to situations and how they’ve allowed situations to mold them. This doesn’t mean to be ignorant or in denial of the past but rather to re-explore it to change how these experiences have effected you in regards to your present beliefs and definition of self and then integrating these new sets of traits by aligning with parallel versions of your self that exist in different realities and by visiting desirable outcomes of self and world. By acquiring the desirable pieces of self you begin to effect your other parallel selves in a positive way. However, if the desire is not set on navigating the timelines with a desire to heal your heart for the purpose of self-growth and the raising of others you will reap what you sow and this will direct the outcome of the future’s manifestation. The focus upon personal success and worldly desires will lock you into a very limited reality. The inner self is a child and children can tend to be short-sighted about consequences. If your intention is for personal achievement and not for uplifting the greater whole then ascension will not be achieved - as this furthers you from global consciousness which is the next evolutionary leap in your path of ascension. The personal dream should be focused upon as well as the collective dream - as they are two components of a whole. This is why teachings regarding “the law of attraction” and manifestation are often a tool of Archons presenting themselves as spiritual teachers to keep you focused solely on yourself through material and emotional gain and ignoring anything of the collective that makes you feel uneasy. Do you see this trap in regards to ascension? This ideology keeps your consciousness isolated instead of united. Your energetic ascension is paralleled with how you much you begin to align with your higher chakras and get them into a healthy balance. The Higher Self is accessed through your solar chakra, but it cannot be fully accessed until you have balanced your lunar chakra dealing with parallel selves and concepts and navigation of time. And this cannot outweigh your soul-star chakra of planetary consciousness. All the chakras are needed to work in balance to keep the spiral of ascension open and each chakra is elevated based upon the frequency of the chakra below it. As always the higher heart is your compass and should always be used to guide your path.” - Noctua 10/12/13

Cyan and electric blue! IN THE SAME PLACE!
That is gorgeous.
On a related note, what people are capable of making is amazing. Seriously, have you ever walked by a skyscraper and looked at it, and looked at your hands, and then at it again, and then at your hands again, and realized that the whole giant building was made by a group of people who only differed from you within a relatively small range of human differentiation?
(Ok, maybe that’s just me, but still: People make incredible stuff.)
Singing Sand Dunes
But there is a marvellous thing related of this Desert, which is that when travellers are on the move by night, and one of them chances to lag behind or to fall asleep or the like, when he tries to gain his company again he will hear spirits talking, and will suppose them to be his comrades. Sometimes the spirits will call him by name; and thus shall a traveller ofttimes be led astray so that he never finds his party. And in this way many have perished. [Sometimes the stray travellers will hear as it were the tramp and hum of a great cavalcade of people away from the real line of road, and taking this to be their own company they will follow the sound; and when day breaks they find that a cheat has been put on them and that they are in an ill plight. Even in the day-time one hears those spirits talking. And sometimes you shall hear the sound of a variety of musical instruments, and still more commonly the sound of drums.
The Travels of Marco Polo
Travellers in the desert have long known that shifting sand can make an eerie noise, ranging from a bass boom to a baritone bark and a soprano whistle. The sound occurs when the ridge of a sand dune builds up and eventually topples. This shear effect causes a mini-avalanche of sand in which millions of grains rub against each other as they fall. But different materials and different conditions make different songs.
Lab experiments show that synchronicity plays a vital role. Put simply, enough grains have to be flowing at the same rate in order to create and amplify the oscillation. In turn, the factors behind synchronicity are wind speed, humidity, the size of the sand grain and the smoothness of its coating, too.
Much of the scientific fascination surrounding booming dunes stems from the fact that their properties are so hard to pin down. Booming doesn’t occur on all desert dunes. And on those that do boom, the phenomenon doesn’t occur throughout the entire year or everywhere across the dune. The frequency can vary too – from roughly 65 to 120 Hertz – while the volume can reach 110 decibels — just 20 dB short of the pain threshold.
The sound is not related to the type of dune or its location. And while it’s mostly at a pitch akin to the drone of a low-flying aeroplane, its timbre ranges from a rough brass-like clamour of Oman’s dunes, on the Arabian Peninsula, to the pure vocal sound of Morocco’s. Scientists agree that the noise only arises from a dune’s upper slip face (the leeward side), never from the shallow, windward face. What’s more, booming only happens when conditions are hot and dry and when the sand grains are clean, round and polished.
Despite these clues, the most fundamental question remains: what does make the dunes sing?
Here is your mind blown for the day:) As we know, the sun is a star. In our galaxy alone, there are estimated to be over 100 billion stars. How many earth-like planets orbit these stars? An estimated 17 billion. “Almost all sun-like stars have a planetary system,” said Francois Fressin, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
Also, there is estimated to be around 100 billion galaxies in the universe. So if each galaxy has millions or billions of earthlike planets, and there are hundreds of billions of galaxies, does it make sense to think that we are the only form of intelligent life in the Universe? But it goes even further.
At the center of each galaxy lies a black hole. Equations show that within the black hole of each galaxy lies ANOTHER whole universe. “Like part of a cosmic Russian doll, our universe may be nested inside a black hole that is itself part of a larger universe. In turn, all the black holes found so far in our universe—from the microscopic to the supermassive—may be doorways into alternate realities.”
According to the new equations, the matter black holes absorb and seemingly destroy is actually expelled and becomes the building blocks for galaxies, stars, and planets in another reality. Essentially, every black hole contains a smaller alternate universe. And our universe might just exist inside a black hole of a galaxy in a much larger universe.
So within the 100 billion galaxies in our known universe lies 100 billion universes in the galactic black holes of our universe, with 100 billion more galaxies each containing another universe with more galaxies, and so on infinitely. What a Creation we live in.
