Life has not been the same for me since this trip. Light is part of many of our spiritual traditions. Barbara Brennan has written a book on the Hands of Light . Energy concepts are everywhere- Charismatic Christianity to Chakra work. There is sound therapy, aromatherapy, and in a recent periodical, Mickey Hart speaks of the soulfulness of drumming.
Animals are part of the Native American and other traditions.
We are well advised to learn from our animal nature, our animal collective knowledge, and to see the power of our instinctive intuition. This is not an act of self-indulgence as some would have us believe. These are not acts to overthrow our culture of consumerism and acquisition. The mystery is that these acts, if they occur in transcendental form, have no attached outcome. However, these acts come in the nature of identifying our wounds and being healing.
