“We know who we are. We are the dispossessed, the outcasts, and the outsiders, rebels with a cause who have upturned the mulch of our dead lives and seeded those fertile fields with incendiary visions of our future selves. Having already subverted the norm, we renunciate dominator culture’s status quo of everything and drift happily disconnected ‒ babes in the abyss ‒ wavering in the ambiguity fog of dislocation. Free-floating between old worlds and new, guided only by the shining paths of mother evolution. We have passed over, we have passed the point of no-return and since there is no turning back, we celebrate the momentum lifting us on the wings of perception, grace, and whatever skills we have earned from surviving the inevitable catastrophe of self. Only when we are over, does our real life begin.” ~Antero Allli Posted on December 12, 2014 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, General, Quotes Leave a comment
“You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation…and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.” ~Hermann Hesse Posted on December 11, 2014 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, Quotes Leave a comment Art by Renee Nault Source~ Shamantube
“Everyone needs a practice which polishes them, to wear away at the obscuring mindstuff which settles like debris on one’s way of seeing. In our hearts, we know there is meaning to it all, an ordering nature to the chaos, but like a dream which slips away into forgetting, we have to practice at coming into its coherency. Without such a practice, we fall prey to the belief that the toxic fog of consensus culture is the real reality. When in fact, it is only the ‘not-beauty’ behind which beauty is hiding.” ~Dreamwork with Toko-pa Posted on December 9, 2014 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, Quotes Leave a comment

“Immerse yourself in the rapture of music, You know what you love. Go there. Tend to each note, each chord, Rising up from silence and dissolving again. Vibration draws us Into the spacious resonance of the heart. The body becomes light as the sky And you, one with the Great Musician, Who is even now singing us Into existence.” ~From the Radiance Sutras Posted on December 5, 2014 by underthebluedoor Posted in Art, Quotes Leave a comment
