I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
One of the most significant and potent practices that I've discovered in my life has been exploring multitudes of diverse perspectives, following them to their roots, and then reconciling them all with each other. This brings me to new levels of accuracy, coherence, and wholeness in my own perspective over time, as I move through my life and experiences, which allows me to make choices more decisively and effectively.
In truth, this has always seemingly come natural for me, because I've done it since I was a child. It's part of my relationship with 'otherness' I'd say, a deep fascination with that which is different, new, and as-of-yet unknown. It's also part of my nature to live on the edge, in between domains, to work and play in the intersection point between worlds, where alchemy and magic happen. I've also always had a deep need to know the truth, and what is real. So to me, taking innumerable and contrasting perspectives, and them reconciling them back to a point of integral, coherent wholeness, is just how I flow in the world.
It's always a deeply fun and engaging experience to encounter others who also practice this multi-perspective reconciliation, or have a proclivity for it, though I must say that it is not common, as it seems that not many people tend to do this. Time utterly evaporates in conversations with those that do, and I treasure those experiences, especially because they are indeed so rare.
Once you realize that no perspective is complete, or entirely accurate, our own included, then the fire to know what is real and true is sparked, and a long process of exploration, confusion, clarity, and bridging worlds begins. You could describe this as awakening to an ever-more whole and real world, in periodic leaps of comprehension. This process never ends.
Exploring and reconciling contrasting perspectives is a healing at its core. Even the words 'heal' and 'whole' originate from the same linguistic root. Healing is returning, reintegrating, back to wholeness. It all starts with being open and willing to explore and go to the roots of other, different, contrasting perspectives, and a desire to know the truth, which will fuel the task of bridging and integrating diverse worldviews into greater wholeness, clarity, comprehension, coherence, and accuracy. Sounds fun to me, what about you?
Yesterday, I left the Flow House, once I had finished up my Hive tasks, just before 1:30PM, putting my attention first on doing the dry-goods order in Tutu's, since the sun was not cooperating for photography. With that done, I got my machete and collected a wheelbarrow full of assorted edible foliage for cow-milking food. Thankfully the sun did come out a bit more later in the afternoon, so I was able to get a good batch of photos. I was originally planning to go over to Lea's after finishing my tasks at GaiaYoga, but we had to reschedule for Friday, so I didn't end up going. I did end up making myself some food (ground beef, eggs, onions, tomatoes, sea salt, and pepper jack cheese) in the Landing, however. It was already getting somewhat late by this point, so I collected my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and with that and food in hand, I headed back to the Flow House, to get into my evening round of Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done on Hive by around 12:15AM, and after some token management, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed around 12:30AM. I did thankfully sleep well (4 days in a row!), waking up just after 8AM, doing a round of token management, and then getting out of bed to go make my superfood fire coffee, and to milk the cow with Jo. I did also start on this post just before I went to milk. As soon as milking was done, I made my way back to the Flow House to write this post. It's now just before 1PM, so a very good time to end this post, so that I my get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to first take more photos for these posts, strain and blend kefir (kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao), and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's edition of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
