The Primordial Forest
Within each of us is a primordial forest that can lead us to what is real. We can access this pathway through: dreams, artwork, listening to life, listening to nature, listening to each other, meditation, contemplation, sacred words, listening to animals and nature and reading sacred texts, of course, nurturing out families and children.
Eventually, hopefully, we arrive at a place of light, where we can see with the eye of the heart. Although this work is individual, it must be supported by friends, groups, guides, angels and animal spirits; as our biggest modern misconception is that we are alone. No one is alone, although one can experience periods of desolation in traveling from "the alone to the alone" in search for what is real. But this is different than being "alone.” This is a delicate, but necessary work, as it provides us our link to the infinite and to the future. Often this work begins to happen spontaneously, such as after trauma, or even while painting, or deep in prayer. It can be something which we hear faintly, like a call from afar…then we must listen!Artwork: Annick Baud
