Another Peek for Peeps into Madness, Addiction and Love

tools for intuitive living

Saturday, April 22^th, 1972 began like any ordinary day.

Cold, snow up to our arse in  Stephenville. Home we used the British word for ass. 

I am overly excited; my  girlfriend from Corner Brook is visiting for the weekend. Valerie Snow, Karen  and my self have plans to go to a K 20 dance. The K 20 is an organization for  kids from the ages of 14-20 . It is an off shoot of the Kinsmen and Kinettes my parents were members of. 

 Valerie arrives at noon, we are in my bedroom  and she has a terrible headache. I give her a few aspirins. We want her in tiptop  form for the dance. Valerie is feeling better; we meet up with Karen at my  mothers dress shop, go to the Sun Luck for Chinese and arrive at the dance for  9:00pm. My parents are chaperones; I have no problem with that.

We are all  scattered on the dance floor when I am literally pulled off the floor by a  friend of my dad’s. His face is white as snow and I am in deep fear. What has  happened?  Am I going to be punished for  something I did , which I did not do? As usual my bladder goes weak, it always did  when I was in fear.   

I am brought into a room, my  parents are there, a few of their friends and I can tell by the look on Dad’s  face, yup, I did something again that I had not done. Fudge. Again , here we go.

“What drugs are you and your  friends on?”

As you read this I need you  to know that if I did drugs in my lifetime four or  five times that is an overstatement . Drugs  was not my gig, booze was.

I swear to them, no drugs.  Because my parents are chaperoning  we did not even bother to steal any of their  booze this night.

We were stone sober.

Valerie is stone dead.

I go weak,  pee myself , “what do you mean she has died?”

Yes, they tell me, while on the  dance floor, she collapsed  in a  heap. Lilly, Lilly , now is not the time to weep.

We are brought home, Karen  and I. We are in my room stunned, confused. We hear crying coming through the front door, it is Valerie’s mom. Her daughter, of 17yrs old, our beloved friend  has died of a brain aneurysm. A head ache , a dance, then out like a light. 

A few days later friends in  the K-20 and I take the drive to Corner B

Demystifying Mysticism

Do you feel you are seeking something, but are not sure what?

“We are the Mystics we have been waiting for.”

There seems to be a lot of confusion and misunderstandings surrounding “New Age” and all of its associated terms. Are you wondering what people are taking about when they refer to their “Highest Potential”? What about:
Mediums
Angel readings
The Mayan Code and all of this fear about the year 2012
Conscious evolution
Bio Energetic (shaking and laughter)
Dark night of the Soul
Archetypes
Fairies
Trinity Table
Yoga
Meditation

What are these things, how are they connected, and how can they help you to feel more fulfilled in your daily life?

Now is the time to explore. We invite you to attend DEMYSTIFYING MYSTICISM, an evening with Lilly White (Whitelight Retreat, Almonte) and seven other practitioners from the Almonte area, all there to help answer these questions.

There is no fee, though donations to cover the cost of the evening are welcome.

Almonte Town Hall
Wednesday, March 10, 6:30pm - 9:30pm
Chai tea, coffee, and snacks will be served.
Lilly will be giving spiritual readings of the audience, as well as hosting a question and answer period.

Come on out for an evening of fun, joy, and learning. Whether you believe in these things or not, it is sure to be interesting.

BIO Energy Meditation , Introduction to Shaking and Laughing at Whitelight Retreat, Sunda y, Feb 28th, 7:00pm. y, Feb

The Practice of Bio Energy Meditation, Shaking and Laughing.

My first experience with Shaking and Laughing was in Bali while I was with Ratu Baugus at his Arsham near the sacred and holy Mountain Augung. This simple practice changed me , my thoughts , my body, my emotions and I awakened with a desire to continue laughing at myself and not take myself so seriously. Plus, I lost any excess baggage called weight in five days. (lw)
The practice manifests as movement of the body to music.. Following the very high vibration of the energy we may feel the body shaking, or spontaneously moving or spinning which is both simple and powerful. Many practitioners report life changing results in a very short space of time.( from Ratu Bagus website)

When we tune into the connection with the energy, the body ‘remembers’ and the energy then begins to move us. This feels amazing, some describe it as feeling like heat in the body or a feeling of electricity or fire inside. Others say, it feels like connecting with their soul, the God inside, their original self.( As I have been teaching these last few years, we are JOY)

When we practice, we allow the energy into our bodies and trust that this intelligent energy will give us everything we need. This sacred fire will return us to our natural state of harmony, unity, peace, joy and radiant health. This gift is there for everyone, there's no age or ability that can't practise Bio Energy Meditation. Today, shake, laugh, pray and play. Energy is the power of Life...this picture is taken at ashram and are actual

POWER UP YOUR LIFE

I am awake, next to a lake

The arm of me, DEVINE

I give you the gift of CHINGINA, the fox of life, to be ya

You are that, I am that, all that is

I am asleep, into the deep

I travel down, look around

I AM, I AM, You are ME,

Let US Be, LET US BE

I am playing, I am staying

Into the music of this delight

I am Heaven; I am shaken into the realm of Height

Hold on with all your might.

I am joy, I am joy

I am Girl, I am Boy, and I am Child

I am Sage,

I have no name, I have no age.

I am holy, I am whole,

I am empty, SO I am told

I am filling, because I am willing

TO BE, TO BE, TO BE

I am rising, I am diving,

Into to mist of this bliss,

The stars above, the stars within,

The stars of the heart, the stars apart,

You are here, we are there,

Oh GOD, you are Me, We are Thee.

It is all a joke, we can laugh aloud,

We are shining, we are drowning

Into a dream, into a theme,

Into a story, into the holy

Into the depth of oneness.

I was a movie, was no one?

I was everyone, I was here,

I was there,

Oh you wise Fairy,

They think you are airy, they are unaware,

You do no care, but you know you are them

And they are content to know what is meant,

It is happening, it is evolving, and it is revolving,

The moment is NOW, take a breath and

BREATHE, BREATHE, BREATHE.

You have arrived HOME……..
