AHIMSA

I tried my best to practice ahimsa before I was aware of this word/concept

Impossible in a culture that believes only humans have a soul and only money matters

As a child I got a bashing for not wanting to eat meat:

The same meal served to me for breakfast lunch and tea until I ate it:

And my mother threatened to have me put in a mental institution

I believe everything that exists has a consciousness and I respect and give thanks to everything I use

And of course I talk to  plants

I wish I was still living in my house by the sea with trees and wildlife— it was a sanctuary of life

we were recently informed that pest control were putting out baits (in this retirement village) to kill rats — to keeps snakes away

Rats have every right to be here

And speaking from personal experience snakes move away from us

Would those of you who realize other life forms have a right to be here

Please send (or pray for) protection for all creatures that most humans label as vermin or kill to keep away from crops

This  includes birds, kangaroos, snails, mice, rats. beetles, insects etc.

INTENTION IS WHAT MATTERS AND EMOTION EMPOWERS

I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago when the human population was only 7.4 billion:

(1st published 4th April 2017)

It is now mor than 8 billion.

Our cultural norms and the Protestant Ethic are causing the extinction of all life.

I wrote this as social satire and sympathetic magic

I wanted to put my idea that humans are not indigenous to the planet

The idea that we were genetically engineered is from Mayan writings plus my belief that humans are not indigenous to the planet

The concept of translocation was once a practice pre Roman Empire and apparently still is in some so called primitive cultures

The idea that humans were livestock for the gods is mine but am sure others have thought this

I chose Ophiuchus because I was I was drawn to this constellation

I chose Kunapipi because I respect and admire the wisdom and spirituality of indigenous Australians

The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece

but a true story.

I don’t know the meaning of life:

nor understand the nature of reality:

I do know physical death is not the end.

And there are so many amazing stories omitted so as not to break client confidentiality.

The second part I wrote as therapy and had not intended to include.

It wasn’t included in the original l publication

( I started shaking when I tried to write about the abuse so it is badly written and a great deal omitted)
