This was another one from the other day and the inner-city abandoned'. I tried some new things on this one.
I had another feature today. Art magazine from Brazil, Art Scoop, posted this today.
A pair of EYMS double-deckers roll up King Street towards the Cottingham Green stop. Heading the parade is then-new 670 (YY52LCK), a Volvo B7TL with low-height Plaxton President bodywork. The bus moved to MP Travel, North West England after sale by EYMS.
The Millennial Clock was a new feature in this once-familiar spot when I was a Cottingham resident between 1969-72. In the best East Riding tradition, we skipped using the last two syllables, simply calling the place “Cott”, as per Brid, Bev, Driff and Pock.
Behind, the well-known Hull grocers Wm. Jackson & Son was still family-owned. Sainsbury’s took them over shortly afterwards. The stores were for a while rebranded as Sainsbury’s at Jackson’s, before the local identity was finally eliminated.

Built approximately 6500 years ago, Issis Elb’ien is the spiritual core of K’al Yne and visual center to which most city views project towards. Its location was determined by virtue of the intersection of two powerful energy lines within the planetary field. This unique intersection has greatly contributed to K’al Yne’s success.
Issis Elb’ien is a symbolic marker of this holy spot and serves as a monastery for the specialized division of Seers known as the Garden Keepers. The Garden Keepers reside in this beautiful sanctuary and connect directly with the consciousness of Odan. Here, through prayer and meditation, they communicate with the spirit of Odan* and all plant life. This provides healing energy to help sustain the lush planet Odan. Additionally, their efforts add to the abundance of food that can be harvested by other types of Seers. The sanctuary garden is dominated by the massive Issi’acian Trees from which spiritually energized mellons are harvested. While found all throughout the region, the trees on this spot produce the most potent fruits.
The devotion that the Garden Keepers have shown over the millennia manifested one of the few Trees of Life on Odan. The massive tree structure has grown to around 100 stories next to the quiet banks of the lake. This Tree of Life offers the city permanent water purification. Spiritually, the tree brings wisdom and focus to all who meditate on it. The 14 Trees of Life throughout Odan work together to focus the planet’s energy, which generates a powerful healing force.
While much of Issis Elb’ien is off limits, the garden sanctuary surrounding it is a beautiful getaway for anyone searching for moments of beauty and relaxation. The air in the immediate area is sweet with the perfumes of the Sara flower, also known as the flower of life. (Sara is an off world flower seeded on countless planets – one distant variation being our Lotus flower.)
*Those in Odan have found that all of the universe is infused with consciousness and all matter contains spirit. Humanoids have humanoid spirit. Animals have animal spirit. Plants and rocks have plant and rock spirit. Even celestial bodies have celestial body spirit. All spirits are connected in consciousness and can communicate with each other telepathically, given the spiritual level of the particular entities involved. Eventually, all spirits are released through bodily decay where they will travel dimensionally to work toward their next reincarnation. It is this connected consciousness that the Seers tap into. Through lifetimes of training, they gain the capacity to communicate with all consciousness – whatever the form – and work to pass thought and energy to all in need.

I came across this scene while walking Dweezil this morning. What were the neighbors thinking when they bought that old clunker? I know it’s supposed to be user friendly and all…. (I’m really just jealous that I didn’t get to it first.)
Anyway…May the fourth.. err.. force be with all of us.
Millennials, and the generations that follow, are shaping technology. This generation has grown up with computing in the palm of their hands. They are more socially and globally connected through mobile Internet devices than any prior generation. And they don't question; they just learn.

For over 5200 years, Tel Enan has graced the low cliffs above the southern bay. At the time of its construction, this untouched area near K’Al Yne served as a place of meditation for many of the great Seers of the Mid Era. Fond descriptions of Tel Enan can be found in the early writings of Seran whose influence throughout Odan and neighboring planetary spiritual centers brought in a steady stream of visitors.
By the time of Seran’s twelfth and final incarnation in K’Al Yne, Tel Enan was no longer the quiet retreat it once had been. Schools, visitor centers and general urban growth took over the once remote area. To meet the needs of this growing city, a series of new meditation towers were built far along the coast and deep under the lake.* Shortly after Seran’s twelfth passing, Tel Enan began its transition to a teaching monastery and later a museum to preserve the many artifacts of Mid Era monastic life. Seran’s room remains as it was. Here, one could see the worn floor where his feet and toes – placed precisely in the same spot for centuries – had created deep indentations.
Now, once again, Tel Enan serves partially as a working monastery for the increasingly varied roles of the Seers. With the exception of the Garden Keepers (who can be found in Issis Elb’ien – the great sanctuary gate), all manner of Seers participate here. Most importantly, Tel Enan serves as a retreat for all members of K’Al Yne and special dignitaries who visit. The order of Seers known as the Facilitators, guide visitors into extended trances where they can astrally project** to the great spiritual centers throughout the galaxy. In this way, visitors may participate in the spiritual life of millions of races throughout the span of time and space.
*One such center can be seen in the image poking out of the lake near the Tree of Life, where a transport vehicle is leaving.
**Astral projection is an experience gained through meditation where one can split their consciousness and leave the body – much like a ghost. Depending on the level of the trance, one can travel through space and time to witness (relive) events past, present and future (possibilities). Here on earth, this practice has extended from the earliest recorded cultures, early European, Mayan, Aboriginal, Native American and eastern cultures. This practice is once again entering the consciousness of western culture.

Applying for summer internships is always so stressful. It makes me feel inadequate and completely unprepared for starting a career right after college.
WEEK 33 – Toys “R” Us Outlet, Southaven
Panning slightly to the right, here's another look from within the middle area of the store. Although it is possible for me to describe the store as existing in three parts like that, don't be fooled: it certainly wasn't all that big! As a result, I had some trouble figuring out what to take pictures of here, since there really weren't too many angles for me to capture, what with the lack of square footage here (not to mention the moderately-sized crowd of children and their parents shopping on this Saturday afternoon). That said, I did my best, and came out with 20 pics altogether, which isn't too shabby I don't think!
I was also impressed with how well-stocked this store was. That is to say, Toys “R” Us fit a pretty large amount of merchandise in this space! With this being an outlet store, I was expecting more along the lines of out-of-season toys from a few select departments. Instead, even though I can't claim to be a modern-day toy expert, much of what I saw here seemed to be fresh, new merchandise, and from a multitude of departments as well: for example, in this pic alone, preschool toys are sharing the frame with Nickelodeon collectibles (which are marked “preschool” on that liquidation sale “10% off” sign but, let's be honest, were totally manufactured solely with nostalgic 90s kids in mind XD )

This massive 62 story building contains art collections and exhibitions found from tens of thousands of worlds within the local galaxy cluster. It has been said that it can take a full year of visitations to get through the entire museum(s). Built in Si 10302 of the Tandor Dynasty (approximately 3400 years ago), the museum has been expanded 21 times. The architecture remains true to the original build which was based on the ancient Siamay Temples. The museum is comprised of one physical building and 4 others (not part of this model) found in different dimensions – according to the level the art was created in.
Works can be viewed physically, in spirit form and through Akasha* links. Physical pieces cover works of art made in the physical realm. Other works of art made by civilizations from higher dimensions are located in the four sister museums – connected to the physical one – but not part of the physical dimension. Visitors can quickly be induced into spirit consciousness to enter these museum extensions. Finally, link jumps can be found throughout the museum to specific points in the Akasha*. Here, visitors will be transported in spirit form to the place and past points of time to witness the creation and utilization of the works of art. Given that moving through the Akasha allows for the feelings and thoughts of the time to be experienced, it is an excellent opportunity to literally get inside the head of the artist at the moment of creation.
Y’des eb Sirth translates to “Eye of the Spirit.” It specializes in art which captures spiritual development, rituals and rites. The museum is divided into clusters that represent the relative spiritual development of the worlds that works come from. This is a broad spectrum covering the low vibrational worlds like Earth, up to the high vibrational worlds in which the inhabitants are near angelic in evolution.
*Akasha is an ancient Vedic word that means “primordial essence.” It is a dimension of reality on which every deed, thought, feeling and event is imprinted throughout time. Meditation to expanded consciousness is needed to access this. Once accessed, one can visit (in spirit form) any place in any point of time – past, present or future possibilities. Here, the viewer can not only view the experience, but also feel the feelings and hear the thoughts surrounding an event. Cultures from around Earth have accessed Akasha from ancient times on. This is also known as “The Book of Life” in the Bible where individuals’ records are accessed in the “life review.” The aboriginals call this Dream Time.

I created this composite from three layers. The background is simply a black fill layer on which I brushed in some dust particles. The comet is a real photo I took of the "Green Comet" (C/2022 E3 ZTF), which passed by planet earth January 27, 2023. This was the first time in a thousand years the comet crossed paths with earth. The foreground layer is of an elbow bend from a CPAP machine. All photos used in this composite are my own.

Standing at 120 stories, the 1450 year old Sa Ameen is one of the larger freestanding structures of K’al Yne. Four towers connect at a central hub. Here, shafts penetrate the foundation where the Seer’s meditation ‘dark chambers’ are located. Each tower comfortably houses around 150,000 members of the ancient Sari clan.
The Sari clan is the second largest of the 18 clans in K’al Yne and serve as K’al Yne’s primary spiritual force. All spiritual leaders, known as Seers, come from the Sari. The Sari are further divided into 12 separate “houses”, which represent the various ancient family lines. Each house serves a unique specialty within the community. For example, one house focuses on administration activities, another on general spiritual needs, another on more specialized spiritual activites – like meditation-based food production. Being born into a particular house in a clan is predetermined before birth when in the spirit form. Generally speaking, most family members have reincarnated into the same house hundreds or thousands of times. In this way, their talents carry through instinctively to support an increasingly specialized society.
As with most buildings on Odan, windows are kept to a minimum to maintain the pristine night sky. Advanced fiber optics turn walls into virtual solid windows which provide the light, the views, the sounds and the fresh air from outside.
The Sari prefer to spend time with large extended families rather than stay tight within individual family units. To this end, apartments tend to have but a few rooms for sleep, meditation and hygene. More space is dedicated to open play and community activities such as meals, worship, schooling, work and entertainment. In addition, approximately 15 floors have been reserved for gardens, waterfalls and plant life. Here, enough food is provided for the entire Sari with surplus that is shared among some of the other clans. These green areas generally lie directly outside apartments and serve as a barrier between public and private spaces.
As all Seers are raised within Sa Ameen, deep meditation quarters have been created to facilitate their habitat and spiritual growth. Located between the four towers are special dark chambers, devoid of any light or sound. These unique areas provide the necessary extended meditation they will need to focus their third eyes. With the care of loved ones, Seers begin their monastic life at the age of 14, here in Sa Amee. As an adult, they will retreat to various monasteries and sanctuaries throughout K’al Yne.
