“The detectors don’t induce the phenomenon of wave function collapse; conscious observation does. Consciousness is like this giant roving spotlight, collapsing reality wherever it shines—and what isn’t observed remains probability. And it’s not just photons or electrons. It is everything. All matter…A testable, repeatable fault in reality.”

The Kabbalah Tree of Life is a map of the soul/human journey and experience toward enlightened consciousness. It is a picture of how Nothing becomes Everything, which ultimately becomes physical matter; and vice versa, how physical matter ultimately becomes Everything which then becomes Nothing. In all of time... in the past, present and future... we are somewhere in the Tree, experiencing a moment, then moving to another moment in time to another place in the Tree. It is a personal journey, and yet also a universal journey. It is the journey to understand ourself, our relationships, our planet and the cosmos in relation to the Creator of the All-That-Is. It is a physical representation of the stepdown process through each Sephirah where a differentiated Spectrum appears. The stepdown of visible color begins with KETER. And so the Tree of Life is formed.Below is a brief definition of each Archangel and Shekinah within the Tree of Life.Metatron - The highest Archangel who presides over all the other Archangels. The tall Archangel. Guards the Divine Throne. The "Angel of Presence" who faces Divinity directly. Records good deeds and serves the Divine Merkabah (chariot). Assists in personal ascension. Twin brother of Archangel Sandalphon. Metatron lived as a human man, the prophet and scribe known as Enoch.
Raziel - Means "Secret of God". Reveals the secret Divine mysteries of mankind and the Universe. Brings intuition, insight and heightened awareness allowing deep understanding of esoteric spiritual ideas by opening the Third Eye chakra. Wrote the Book of Wisdom revealing all earthly and cosmic secrets, which Raziel gave to Adam as he left the Garden of Eden.
Tzaphqiel - Means "Knowledge of God". Tzaphqiel is the beholder of God. The Feminine aspect of Creation, emanating unconditional love, forgiveness, non-judgement and compassion. The Great Cosmic Mother.
Tzadkiel - Means "Righteouness or Justice of God". The Angel of Mercy. The Great Alchemist. Invokes the violet flame of purification and transmutation. Assists with the alchemical process. Brings joy, benevolence, justice, liberation and freedom. Brings ability to perceive many things at the same time. Helps in matters of prosperity and money.
Kamael - Means "He who sees God". Helps in all matters of the heart. Assists in the healing of the heart. Helps to develop our heart chakra and bring through the attributes of compassion, balanced love of Self and the unconditional extension of that Love for oneself to others. Assists with all mental activities. Brings concentration and focus resulting in breakthroughs in understanding. Assists with the healing of family relationships and friendships and reuniting twin flames. Helps you find missing items.
Michael - Means "He who is like God". The Great Teacher of humanity. Brings expansion, leadership, courage, protection, faith, power and strength. Cuts away what is discordant, unwanted or no longer needed using his sword. Also cuts psychic ties to another. Call on Michael before you go to sleep. Note: some Kabbalists place Michael in HOD.
Haniel - Means "Glory, Grace or Love of God". The Great Nurturer. Seals the love between humanity and God. Helps to enhance psychic powers and how to use crystals and natural healing remedies. Haniel is the master of the lessons of polarity and duality and of synchronicity, who brings together friends and lovers and then supports them in their relationships.
Raphael - Means "Healing of God". The Great Healer. Heals, balances and makes whole both humankind, animals and Mother Gaia. Assists with healing your soul of present difficulties or past traumas. Warns of dangers ahead. Encourages devotion to causes. Inspires musicians, singers and composers. Note: some Kabbalists place Raphael in TIPHARETH.

Helps children and an adult's inner child. The Great Messenger. Assists artists and those involved with communication, particularly writers.
Sandalphon - Means "Brother" referring to his twin brother Metatron. Metatron and Sandalphon are the only Archangels who had incarnations as human beings. Protects those in the physical world. Weaves garlands out of human prayers and sends them to Heaven where Metatron receives them and gives them to God.
Shekinah - Divine Presence or the presence of God whose voice is heard in Da'ath. The feminine indwelling presence of God that hovers in Malkuth. The presence of God in matter.
Shiva is pure consciousness. He is the Supreme Lord’s greatest bhakta as he is always meditating upon Narayana. Known as the Lord of Destruction, he stands for the dissolution of the mind, which is exactly what we need in order for pure Love to awaken inside the heart. Through his Grace, Shiva destroys our pride and ego so that bhakti can grow in our hearts and we can rise to attain the Lotus Feet of Lord Narayana.
Our Shivaratri celebrations were hosted live from Mauritius with Paramahamsa Vishwananda and Shree Peetha Nilaya - The Ashram. Festivities included several Shiva-lingam abhishekams, yajnas, and beautiful kirtan by Bhakti Marga's devoted and talented musicians.

the ability to choose and arrange the rainbow's spectrum can be transformed into an intellectual motif -- the rainbow of consciousness and the explosion of the individual within the whole.
all of us are born into this social contract of humanity. we don't have any choice about this. we are raised and reared within the boundaries of these social contracts.
currently, in this part of the world, there is a loosening of the moral and religious hold on sexuality and the range of the human heart's ability to be bigger than the limited and challenging gender roles of the past.
both sexes, men and women, are starting to understand themselves inside a much greater context and understanding than we think the past afforded.
it is just one of the outgrowths of a materialized capitalistic system of social contracting.
with moving imagery and invisible worlds now firmly entrenched across the country, the powerful syndrome of "the emperor who wore no clothes" can take full effect.
in the original tale, the narrative stops short on the exclamation of a small girl child who says, "but, mommy, he's not wearing any clothes!"
and of course, the moral right and the rigid uptight sexual judgers all come down on the period with their verdict -- which really is that the emperor has been cheated and defrauded in front of everyone.
but we already know of this lesson.
so perhaps we really should be asking where our true naked leaders are -- not the one who got cheated and defrauded and paraded in front of his subjects by clever tailors. we should be asking where our naked leaders of greatness and awesomeness and full human glory might be.
we really should be considering the idea that our leaders shouldn't need to be covered up in metaphorical or physical buffers and boundaries.
but our leaders are weapons manufacturers and drug dealers and pornographers.
our leaders spread disease and pestilence and cause wars in other countries.
our leaders are not rainbow warriors. they are gold and diamond collectors. they use time and drugs to rule and reign. they use entertainment and news to delight and bemuse.
we are the fire children.
we love our energy.
but we don't worship the sun like we used to in the alleged past.
we worship ourselves.
and this worship of the self is the exploding dahlia.
we are these dahlias floating through space. and each of us explode one day.

If countries take the route of limitation and separation, they will harm themselves and everyone else, which means they’ll harm themselves either way. The only chance they have of developing positively (instead of through suffering and war) is by taking all people, economies, and countries into consideration.

A little fire burns in my chest. Earlier, I yearned to express it, was ashamed of it. Today, I am afraid I may not be able to contain it. I put on my boxer shorts, a fresh t-shirt and slightly dirty shorts I have not washed for weeks.
I am about 30 pounds overweight and there is an ugly bulge of...

Perennial with the Earth, with Freedom, Law and Love,

Chair’d in the adamant of Time.

Oh La La TANGO
The Heavenly Story behind Oh La La Tango…
From the heavenly heights of beauty and consciousness, descending through the voluptuous clouds of the rooftop Yun Bar, appear the LALAs - 3 messengers and goddesses of femininity, briefly touching the Earth and our hearts through the graces of the Peninsula Hotel on Friday evening, August 29th 2014.
Flowing sensuously through the elegant spaces of this magnificent hotel, the LALAs come to rest, re-cycle and rejuvenate on the 4th floor in the MAUS Artist In Residence Studio suite, the earthly residence of the creator of the LALAs, painter, sculptress, performance artist Aima St-Hunon.
Re-emerging from her latest work celebrating eco-consciousness and creative, sustainable living, the Crystal Cocoon, the LALAs hear the passionate call of humanity..
Sirens of Heaven drawn by Sirens of Earth.
The LALA goddesses, hearing the earthy, seductive sounds of Bukapu below , become the Sirens of Heaven drawn by Sirens of Earth, down through the 3rd and 2nd gallery floors, dancing and interacting with Aima St-Hunon’s sensual paintings and sculptures among the over 60 works and installations by fellow MAUS Artist In Residence Bei Shui.
The LALA’s can smell earthly passion…
Following the sensual music from below, the LALAs descend the classic white bridge of the Peninsula, emerging from between the White Stone Polo Horses to get closer to the earthy, elegant sounds of Bukapu and the people in the luxurious main lobby.
Argentine Tango, the most passionate dance on earth.
Resembling scores of free butterflies attracted to the beauty and vital nectar of Bei Shui’s oversize flowers and freed of their own Crystal Cocoon, the LALAs discover and join the many friends of MAUS and aficionados of Argentine Tango filling the lobby with the most passionate dance on earth.
Bukaopu Concert Saloon - a most seductive, exciting, irreverent variety of entertainment
Delighted to share their expressions of femininity and the connection between Heaven, Earth and People, the LALAs enter the Bukaopu Concert Saloon, a new and exciting, seductive and irreverent variety of earthly entertainment. The heavenly LALAs are drawn to dance with Bukaopu, bringing Aima’s sculptures to life and evoking the spirits of passion, femininity, and the shameless celebration of the feminine form in both men and women.
Finally, having fanned the fires of passion and stimulated guests and visitors with their message of love and Lifestyle Of Health, Happiness And Sustainability, the LALAs ascend back among the heavenly clouds of the rooftop YUN Bar.

I choose to believe that we are eternal, we are light, we are created from star ignitions so that or light will never dim. That’s what I hope, anyways infinity and eternity – the 2 concepts that never cease to boggle the human mind. In the grand scheme of things it’s really not that hard to do. I cannot wrap my consciousness around the question of existence. From a brain cell to a galaxy to a casual thought, to a dark passion – all stemming from one tiny point somewhere in the cosmos. Space itself is but a luxury we can’t afford to take for granted. Somewhere out there, maybe God dwells – the masters of energies. The one that transcends space and time, the one that lit the fuse and it all began. But through our human limitations we can’t see beyond what is placed before us. When the answers we seek are beyond our comprehension. God lies somewhere in that beyond. I struggle to know what that means and I can’t come up with a satisfactory answer. I lose perspective every time I try. And for us, perspective defines our reality. We struggle to understand the forces that guide the universe, yet we can’t understand the forces that guide our own selves. So does true understanding happen on the inside or on the outside? I guess no one really knows, though many claim to via religion or science. But what we see and hear and calculate and formulate is only the tip of the iceberg. I think there is a place, a long ways off from our understanding, where science and religion meet and merge as allies, as on entity, as the ultimate God. A place where the order of all things coincide and reconcile. But maybe these things are kept hidden from us because we are not ready for the truth. History has shown that truth can stare us in the face but we won’t see it until we’re ready. The truth may even be here now, just waiting to be discovered. Events realized before they happen. I sit and think and worry that the existence of God is an illusion, when I could be breathing God every time I fill my lungs. God could be the love I feel when I stroke a cat or the fear I feel when I take to the air. The desire to avoid the unnatural and search for the truth. The pleasure. The guilt. The joy. The sadness. Defies logic and yet embraces it. Relativity at its best.
