At the risk of completely violating a point I made only yesterday, I’d like to offer that the Christmas tree depicts the same thing as do concepts related to Kundalini energy rising through the body, as does the life and ministry of Jesus, especially his ascension to Golgotha – the place of the skull, and [...]

Living Borders
October 3, 2006 – 11:26 am
Another strange thing I have noticed thanks to my job: plants simply don’t recognize human borders. Plants will climb over or slip under fences, sneak their way around corners and up walls, and generally make a mess of nice clean edges.

Joseph Campbell’s New World Order

November 4, 2005 – 12:41 am
That recent news item I found about cargo cults has really sparked my imagination. If you’re not familiar with cargo cults, the term refers to indigenous Pacific island cultures which didn’t interact with Western civilization until fairly recently (the 1930’s, I think) . That article has a nice quick summation of the phenomenon:
Cargo cults believe [...]
