Concentration Camp Harbin Hot Springs California 2010
Note: This is a rather intense piece due to content and characters. I have many personal connections to concentration camps and have been clearing energy from those times. As a little girl, I remember tracing my great-uncle's Auschewitz tattoo with my finger tips. To this day, I feel those days clearly. I appreciate the insights of White Buffalo Calf Woman. I express deep gratitude for the insights being shared with me.
Part I – Source
I lie naked on my back in the hot sauna Which always reminds me of a gas chamber When Source suggests that I think of Life As a concentration camp
“Please expand,” I ask I’ve been given many lessons Lately In concentrated doses About unconditional love And non-attachment I’ve been asking for more Illustrations
“You can conceptualize Your entire existence as a human As an exercise In surviving a concentration camp There is pain all around you There is suffering all around you There are those murdering others With their actions or words There are those allowing themselves To be murdered With other’s actions or words Many choose to do both Murder and be murdered
You stand above this at times Like a taller plant among the shorter grasses Yet you too can’t avoid Getting caught up in games That feel so unnecessary to your soul
You enjoyed that film Life is Beautiful That illustrated the power Of perception
You have endless personal connections To concentration camps You even gave yourself a taste of life In a refugee camp You have tasted the desperation of humans Without anything left To believe in And you have also after sitting in those spaces Found the strength To create a world worth fighting for
After your time in the refugee camp You dropped yourself into the luxury Of excess And what did you become fascinated with? Utopias Remember how you read all about them? You toyed with the idea of how To create a utopia When all you saw Was pain Well done, love
Each day You come closer
You asked us to give you insight about non-attachment You’ve been reconnecting With more and more of your soul And star family members You taste them often before you meet them Some of them dream of you before you come into their life You fall into their arms and recognize their scent And yet you continue to walk a solo path So you ask us How to find strength to do so
Remember that you are all In a concentration camp together You may be killed at any moment All may end at any moment All you have Is this moment So in this moment In every moment In every sacred moment Give all of you to the moment Love with all of you Laugh with all of you Cry with all of you Each moment is sacred Sacred.”
I walk out of the hot sauna Allowing that to filter in If I were in a concentration camp It’d be easier to not feel attachment To the beautiful warrior-kings that come As part of this star family of mine I accept the filter on this existence I allow myself to view this life As another form of a Concentration camp
Part II – White Buffalo Calf Woman
I lie gently awake in the green tent Chatting with insects that visit In the space above My lover is still in dream space Wrapped in his black Jedi cloak
My eyes scan shadows of plants Drawn to a particular shape That reminds me of a buffalo face “I am a buffalo,” he says “The White Buffalo Calf Woman would like to speak with you.” He announces I usually invite in beings So this request to be spoken with is new
I flip onto my back Move gently away from my lover’s body And invite in Buffalo Calf Woman More formally than I normally speak I hear her laughing “Not necessary.We’re sisters. But thank you.”
She thanks me for how I had Firmly stood for the sacredness of lodge In the last ceremony When some of the new participants Had not grasped its difference from that Of a sauna
Then she continues with the theme Of a concentration camp
“What do you think of when I say ‘camp’?” She asks “Fun,” I reply Although camp was far more fun When I was an adult Than a child Yet I still associate it with fun “Good.”
“Now what do you associate with concentration?” She asks “To me, it’s the focusing of energy it’s intense thinking it’s focus on a task.” “Excellent,” she replies.
“So let’s return to this theme Of life on your planet now As a concentration camp That Source introduced to you A few days ago.
You made the assumption That a concentration camp Is really simply a death camp Like that of WWII days And countless other days When human cruelty plays out In ways unimaginable to a being Like you
Yet feel into the deeper meaning Of a concentration camp Yes The world you live in Could be seen as a concentration camp With all of its suffering and death Yet if any one being Really concentrates On awakening from the dream Then it becomes a camp It becomes fun.”
My breath catches a bit A new metaphor emerges I look around the green tent My Jedi-cloaked lover continues his sleep
“Thank you White Buffalo Calf Woman.” And I head out into sunshine To start my morning With a Go Go Green rice shake.
