Bodhisattva, Karmic Shepard, part 2

[Tomas De Minos]

Unifying the East and the West, we acknowledge an underlying reality that
is a collective consciousness--itself an illusion, a compartmentalization
of electrons, and ether. Death is no more of a phase shift, psychologically
speaking, than dipping in and out of the waters that comprise our dreams.
Ancient Greeks speak of these as the River Styx. More recently, a
Christian, a Kerouac, Herbert, Lorca all declare it that ancient song that
is the water of life. Iranianis framed it as a sacred fire that the king
and his queen tended and wielded. Isis and Osiris are a pair of mating
serpents wrapped around our eye balls, judging all the souls of the living,
all for the sake of a cosmic order-- Ma'at/Ayashuasca/Asha/Tiamat/Python.
Themistokles symbolizes a Titan hidden among mortals, living by glory of
Themis.
