Das Wattenmeer ist für das Bewusstsein ein Mantra des Sehens, Lauschens, des Fühlen und Ahnens. Die Weite bleibt kein rein äusseres Phänomen, sie öffnet das Innen.
Entweder man gestattet, sich selber auszuweiten, bis es kein beziehendes Denken mehr gibt, nur noch wahrnehmende, bewusste Freiheit, oder man schrumpft zum Sandkorn in der Unermesslichkeit. Das ist der Preis, welchen man zahlen muss, um ein Selbst zu sein.
Die andere Seite, welche nach und nach das Äussere und das Inneres durchdringt, ist der Tod. Die Weite ist der Tod und die Weite bewusst aufzunehmen, ist ein Überlebenskampf für das Bewusstsein, denn es muss lernen, im Unbedingten bewusst zu bleiben.
Diese Erfahrung erschliesst sich erst in vollem Umfang, wenn man nicht nur ruhend oder entspannt in vollen Zügen aufnimmt, sondern aktiv im Watt unterwegs ist. Dann birgt die Weite, Ebbe und Flut, Nacht und Nebel, tückischen Treibsand, Zeitenge, Sinnestäuschungen und Verhaltensstörungen. Die Weite ist kein Pappenstiel; unser Bewusstsein ist es nicht gewöhnt, mit dem Nichts umzugehen. Manche Leute werden euphorisch, als wären sie in einem Traum oder auf einen Tripp, andere erstarren vor Angst, wagen nicht mehr einen Schritt vor den anderen. Das ist gefährlich im Wattenmeer, Lebensgefährlich!
Aber wenn das Bewusstsein stabil bleibt: Welche Wonne, aufzugehen in Klang und Weite, sich widerstandslos durchdringen lassen, bis nichts mehr übrig ist, ausser dem, was da ist, ..... das ist Vollkommenheit

The Wadden Sea is a mantra of seeing, eavesdropping, the feeling and presentiment of consciousness. The width remains not a purely external phenomenon, it opens the interior.
Either you allowed to extend itself until there is no more of relational thinking, only perceiving, conscious freedom, or to shrink to a grain of sand in the vastness. That is the price, which you have to pay to be a self.
The other side, which permeates gradually the exterior and interior, is death. The width is death and accommodate the width aware is a struggle for survival for awareness, because it needs to learn to stay aware of the unconditioned.
This experience is only revealed in full when you receive not just resting or relaxing in the fullest, but is actively go in watts. Then, the width, the tides, Night and Fog, treacherous quicksand, time frames, hallucinations and behavioral disorders harbors. The width is not chicken feed; our consciousness, it is not used with the deal Nothing. Some people are euphoric, as if they were in a dream or on a trip, another freeze in fear, no longer dare one step ahead of the others. This is dangerous in the Wadden Sea, very dangerous!
But if awareness remains stable: What bliss to be absorbed in sound and space, can penetrate without resistance, until there is nothing left, except what is there ..... this is perfection
4/2022 - Watts, OK
KCS 5015 north by the grain silos at Watts. I heard the horn in the distance and since I as set up for a southbound, I had to rush to find a good spot to shoot a northbound. This is the result. Not too bad.

The tv is on the 6 o clock news and the channels are full color lies. The people of Watts are rioting over the injustices committed against them at the hands of the LAPD. The Governor of California has compared the riots to an anti-insurgency campaign against the Viet Cong. The streets look like a combat zone in a foreign country. National Guard and cops in riot gear patrol the streets and the rooftops. 3,438 people will be arrested, and 34 will die. The events in Watts will be mirrored across major cities across the country as African Americans are tired of being beaten down by a system meant to harm them. A system meant to treat them as less than human. A system still problematic today.
Statue of Boulton, Watt and Murdoch, nicknamed 'The Golden Boys' or 'The Carpet Salesmen'. in Birmingham, England.
The larger than life size figures are in bronze, with a gold finish, on a pedestal of Portland stone and are depicted discussing engine plans.
It is the work of William Bloye, formerly head of sculpture at Birmingham School of Art and was unveiled in 1956.
These three men pioneered the industrial revolution in late 18th century England. James Watt's improvements to the steam engine and William Murdoch's invention of gas lighting made them famous throughout the world. Matthew Boulton, entrepreneur and industrialist, harnessed their talents in a company that made everything from tableware and copper coinage to steam engines.
I was looking for a windmill to shoot while I was driving through the foothills and came upon this one. I was hoping to find one that was a little older and more weathered but I didn't have any luck on this drive. I did really like the lines with the fence and I thought it would make a decent image. So here it is.
