circumstance is do what you love


what i love is herbs and touch and movement and juicing and smoothies and salads and veganism and raw foodism and ketogenic and yogi and ayurvedic world view and peace and justice and i'm not competing, not trying to flex muscles on mine bigger than yours not tryna be theeee boss, you keep that, not tryna be right or wrong, just...

...just trying to recall the wisdom from the Recitation that i came across recently - avoid placing yourself in the role of idol, instead place One before you in all that you do - how are you placing One before you? how are you forwarding the work of the One, being an abd'ullah? fidel castro (r.i.p king - i see You, even through the hunters controlled slandering of what we saw heard and read thought about you). something like that...

what it made me think of is yeah, of course. get past yourself, get past your drive to be a personality, a mark, a known, because this passes - skin has already changed, eyes, hair, all of me is not 19 or 22. and 22 and 19 were puzzling and not 15 and 16 and at 15 16 i couldn't wait to be out of the jailhouse of school and grow some facial hair...

a sham...this frequency of always in want...advertisers, marketers study this. it is a science to get you perpetually dissatisfied with everything. for this reason the richest, prettiest by babylon standards, are on pharmatropics, doing lines of zoloft and coke...strumming bass in the plane in front of flight attendants that eye me for being that brown - not dark enough to be not a threat, but that lighter shade of dark that gets glossed over in binary convo and race and class and prisons, the kind that inhabits much of upstate and torture rooms, water-boarded and being questioned on what the words i whispered in prostration before eating meant... peace i say. reverence...

so herbs...herb classes not for me to prove what i know, but if it is truly in worship to One, to get you and i to get deeper with the Creation - the plants, leaves, pinnate and bicipital, and nitrogen and all praise is due-ing...reverence, scientific knowledge for reverence, energetic knowledge for reverence...not to prove a point but to Connect...this class will explore 3 classes of herbs from an integrative yogic perspective - meaning - ayurvedic science, western herbal science and yogic energetics.

start with this...incorporate meditation, asana that supports the properties of the herbs, i.e. adaptogens, breathing techniques...nutritional goodies that could be made with these herbs...writings on these herbs...drawings/sketches - where science and art come together

classes support community, grow/create community, are positive frequency spaces to grow deeper in a subject, with a subject matter...

i want to take the teachings of the One to serve the One, by promoting peace, humility, nutrition, community...love communities...

the circumstance is to build on what u have - to promote and build community...
