“Thought subsides when you pet your dog or you have a purring cat on your chest. Even just watching an animal can take you out of your mind. It is more deeply connected with the source of life than most humans, and that rootedness in Being transmits itself to you. Millions of people who otherwise would be completely lost in the conceptual reality of their mind are kept sane by living with an animal.”

~Eckhart Tolle

“All human beings are descendants of tribal people who were spiritually alive, intimately in love with the natural world, children of Mother Earth. When we were tribal people, we knew who we were, we knew where we were, and we knew our purpose. This sacred perception of reality remains alive and well in our genetic memory. We carry it inside of us, usually in a dusty box in the mind’s attic, but it is accessible.”

-John Trudell

As it is in the cosmos, so it is in any animal or human but also in the life of any civilization. And this civilization has come to an end. The movement has stopped. The energy behind its momentum is over, spent….

This is another silence.

It’s the silence of everything coming to an end, just like that…. It’s not because of corruption, or because the wrong people got into power, or to make way
