The Hidden History of the Human Race

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

A very interesting video about ancient pyramids, underwater structures and artefacts hinting at our mysterious past. Beautiful cosmic artworks from different South American countries.

An Angelic Voice

Tuesday, September 20th, 2011

I yesterday came across this video about a young woman playing harp and singing with an angelic voice. The person who put the video on the web wrote:

“I came across this beautiful girl in Strasbourg/France in August 2007. Sorry for the poor quality, but as I heard this clear, sad voice and the whispering of the harp all I could do was grab the camera and save as much as possible from this poetic scene. – In the meantime it has turned out that her artist name is Yasmeen.”

You find more songs of this pure voice on her website. Here is another street recording with her, and and one more. And a little longer one. Sublime.

Musical Rapture

Monday, September 19th, 2011

I just came across the beautiful video: “Musical Rapture…A Healing Gift for Humanity”, by Joao Cota-Robles. A free mp3 download of this sacred music is available on Frederic Delarue’s website: www.eraofpeace.org. The complete CD of Musical Rapture is 62 minutes long and can be downloaded at the website of the mother of the author: www.FredericDelarue.com

On the website you can read more about the background of the music, it starts:
“At the age of 13, a year after my first Near-Death Experience when I encountered Angels and Beings of Light in the tunnel reaching to the Bright Warm Light, I was guided to start playing people’s soul songs… On December 29, 2010 Joao Cota-Robles made his transition to the Light, from a sudden pneumonia. I did not know him personally but know his dad, Dick and his mother, Patricia Cota-Robles, whom invites me to perform my music each year to a big Spiritual Conference she organizes in places high in frequency, or ‘vortexes’.” Enjoy

Meeting in the Spirit of Synthesis

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011

From Friday 19th to Sunday 21st August we were at a group meeting in the spirit of synthesis at the seminar centre HPB in Ingolsheim, Alsace, France. A group of 19 persons – members of WTT – from Belgium, Germany and Switzerland assembled for a weekend of meditation, exchanges, and cooperation for further projects.
Beautiful sunshine enlightened the place, and also inwardly there was a lot of light around. We spoke about the present time, where there are intense transformation processes going on globally, and the impact of the energies on our lives and greater fields of Life.

Here are some pics from the place, as a little inspiration.


Master CVV, whose inspiration is beyond the group work


The entrance of the seminar centre


And by night


Ganesha welcoming us in the garden


Yes, there was also plenty of joy


Durga on the lion in an amethyst crystal – symbol of the month of Leo


And a greater amethyst – our friend is trading with crystals


Master EK, who brought the teachings of synthesis to the West – and some of the members present still knew him.


Buddha meditating in the night


And Krishna playing his flute on his birthday, last Sunday


While Quan Yin, the Chinese form of Maitreya, was blessing the meeting from a corner


Huge lingams centring the energy


Light striving upwards


And Buddha in another form also gives his silent blessings


A turtle family – the turtle being a symbol of creation


A beautiful smiling Durga, the guardian of the threshold


Riding on the Lion, the tamed animal nature


A shining labradorite in the colours of the energy of Aquarius

 

A Larva Ballerina

Sunday, July 31st, 2011

A video from an Arab TV shows the dance of a beautiful transparent eel larva ballerina (leptocephalus larva).

Wikipedia explains, “A leptocephalus (meaning “slim head”) is the flat and transparent larva of the eel,.. Leptocephali (more than one leptocephalus) all have laterally compressed bodies that contain transparent jelly-like substances on the inside of the body and a thin layer of muscle on the outside. Their body organs are small, and this combination of features results in them being very transparent when they are alive.”

Never seen such a creature – such a delicate, rhythmic movement full of of easiness. Enjoy.

Summer Solstice – Cancer and its Symbolism

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

Today is summer solstice and the beginning of the month of Cancer. In his booklet, “The Science of Symbolism“, Master EK writes about the symbolism of this sign:

“When the earth begins to tilt back from the highest point of the summer solstice, the Sun appears to travel sidewise from North to South. Hence it is described as a crab while passing through this sign. A branch of symbolism represents it as the beetle which can resurrect a worm into a butterfly. This marks the transformation of matter into mind, the passage to spirit.”

The picture of the month, “Cancer – The Crab, the Tortoise and the Beetle”, illustrates three aspects of the symbolism of this sign.

Paintings of Nicholas Roerich

Friday, June 17th, 2011

Today I found on French Wikimedia the page with many pictures of Nicholas Roerich, some of them quite unknown in the West. Great paintings.


Kalki Avatar – the divine incarnation which comes on a white horse to save the world


Extract of the painting Fiat Rex, by Nicholas Roerich. It seems to be inspired by the picture of Master Morya.


She who holds the World


Path to Kailash


Na Visotah Tummo – tummo is the technique with which Yogis withstand the influence of heat or cold.

A Giant Spider

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

This morning on the way to my office I saw the spider in front of the Swiss National Bank building (left) and the Government (right) – a work of art entitled “Maman”, by the New York artist Louise Bourgeois, it is there for 10 days…. Quite symbolic. The artist called her work “maman” because her mother was busily engaged in keeping the family together, like a spider.
