Shamanic origins of modern traits become more clear than ever as we trace coinciding trails of mushrooms and humans throughout more and less recent times of our common past.

Apart from understanding how the crossing paths of mushrooms and humans may increasingly likely have spawned religions and traditions, giving rise to mystical tales of mythical figures left and right, research the Opisthokonta eukaryotic sub-domain to learn about the mutual ancestors of all fungal and animal life.

Think And Let Think ☉ Io Brunalia

☉
2017 AO, December 21 - Think And Let Think! Io Brunalia!

At the peak of Brumalia*
- during the December Solstice -
the annual Brunalia festivities commence ...

This commemorative cerebralation of the birth of Giordano Bruno, symbolizing the annual return of the Light, encompassing the Northern Winter Solstice, invites us to embrace Free Thinking and Peace on Earth.

Without idealizing and idolizing a historical figure to mythical heights, without submitting to a hierarchy of worship or prostrating ourselves before others, we revere Giordano "Il Nolano" Bruno, not as a saviour of souls, but as a martyr, as a symbol of our free-thinking spirit, a symptom of the free-thinking Mind at large.

As elucidated before**, now once again:
a symbol, not an icon.

May we never take any of our models as gospel!
May we never accept a belief system as dogma!

Live Lovely! Love Lively!
Think and Let Think!

Io Brunalia!

The Art Of Peace - 十一

☉

The Art of Peace - 十一

Consider the ebb and flow of the tide. When waves come
to strike the shore, they crest and fall, creating a sound.
Your breath should follow the same pattern,
absorbing the entire universe in your belly
with each inhalation.
Know that we all have access to four treasures:
the energy of the sun and moon,
the breath of heaven,
the breath of earth,
and the ebb and flow of the tide.

- Ueshiba Morihei,
O Sensei, Tsunemori
from The Art Of Peace
by John Stevens
Shambhala
1992
