Yesterday
Jai and I communed with some beings of "spirit" who are eager to seek a relationship with us and help to guide the Village.
We have decided that every new moon we will hold a "spirit communion" with these entities which have given us some evidence to believe they are of divine origin.
Our method is to lay out the letters of the alphabet in a circle along with the words "yes" and "no", and place a cup in the middle turned upside down, we then place a little finger lightly on top of the cup each, and wait for the cup to move towards the letters or yes and no, spelling words, or answering direct "yes" or "No" questions.
The first time we tried we had limited success, but this time, we got lots of full sentences out.
We have noted it works more effective giving an offering in the middle of water of some kind, perhaps the first time we did it we offered peppermint tea which may of not been the best sort of beverage for offering so we got less coherent message.
I feel that it is best to not disclose publicly what the messages were, (they relate primarily to ourselves or to the Village) out of respect for the entities, but will reveal to other Villagers, the parts that are relevant to the Village if they want.
A general gist I can say is that certain sanskrit words are used often, and that it mostly seems to be about surrendering to the divine will in order to achieve the aims of the Village.

Some of the ideas Todd and I have been contemplating.
Contemplating transcendental numbers like Pi and Phi... and wondering if they can be symbolic for the "immortal" aspect of the multi-verse...the combination of 10 different numbers after decimal point, never repeating their pattern, (which is the impermanence) but the basic building blocks of the 10 numbers are the same. So perhaps there are 10 fundamental principals to come from that?
10 divided by two = five elements, water, earth, ether, air, and fire, the two times by five is the yin and the yang of each element.
The yin and yang = the one of undifferentiated unity.
2 is a sacred number of the ancients that see that relationship is paramount in the universe, the relationship of a being to the divine (great spirit) and that it is in some ways higher then focusing on a number like 1....
In the current times 1 is more popular with people putting themselves on par with God and the great spirit, and competing to be number 1, all the focus on the "self" - 1 is very "revered.
Perhaps it is the 0 that best represents the unity, the 0 relates to the womb or the void, of pure potentiality.
Ancients may of also revered the female above the male at some stage because of the female being associated with the "womb".
Once a being reaches the center of the divine consciousness, they then spiral out as the golden mean... traversing through those realms closer to the divine, and making their way out to the furthest out reaches.
The circumference of a circle is like samsara, or suffering, it can go on and endlessly and the only relief from it is to focus attention to the center, to travel the radius.
2 x Radius=Diameter
Traveling by the radius is to go to the center and then come back with the "divine message".
Notice the number "2"
If you travel through the diameter, with no "pause" as you are one unbrocken line, you fling yourself from one extreme to another, this is how aversion and attraction develops - with no centering or "middle path" being found.
Notice the number "1".
