Macchu Picchu


Heart of Earth:
energy and love swirls
around the cone
of your aorta.

Unmistakeable, undeniable.
Here the power of your living love
is intense.

Flying, chirping with electricity.
Radiating from
and returning to
your open portal

'tween Haqpacha, Kaypacha and Ukhupacha.

The heavens,
mother earth and
the underworld.

Cradled in the vortex
created by the mountainous prism
of this holy trinity.

Both embelleshing tranquility
and screaming with the life
of songbirds,

there is an almost visible
edge of dimensions,
or worlds,
that collide here.

Circling like the condor
around the nautilus shell
of your heart of stone,
whereby rests the Temple of the Stars;

The sacred valley and river
circle your heart like a moat,
where heaven and earth meet.
Window to eternity
above and below.

The rich green forest
is your skin.
Cushioning
for the birth and death
of time.

And time's inhabitants.

Ruins of the past
hint to modern man
that this place is special,
that secrets lie here.

Few of man's relics can hope to survive
natures law of eternal birth and death.
Yet here lies an exception.

From your cup I
I drink the nectar of life.
But not as life in general.
Your cup is a unique flavour.
A special beauty
that exists only here.

Without complaint
you sacrifice your flesh
for the birth and aid of new civilisations.
And with the same ease, you eventually, quietly, reclaim your soil.

Blessed by the elemental forces,
the earth concealed its heart
for 450 years...

until man was ready to receive it,
once again.

For Inti

I bow my head to the morning sun
As it rises over Colca Canyon.

The warmth of my body & soul
is a fraction
of your warmth.

A grain of your star

Organic life
is given life
by your inorganic,
cosmic energy.

Your primal light gives life
to everything that it touches.

Transformation is your Word.
All things change
by the fire
of your being.

A miraculous catalyst
that grants living life.
And living life with spirit.

Your power is mythical,
Like Medusa´s gaze, or
the unseeable face of God.

Yet more than a myth,
everyday, everywhere,
you reveal yourself.
And life responds.

The flowers open and close for you.
The animals wake for you.
The trees breathe you.
The earth revolves around you.

The essence of Wiracocha
(supreme God, the totality)
burns brightly in you.
Surely you are one of his chief servants.

Smaller gods such as humans
evolve and sing praise
thanks to you.

The First Light
is a cosmic treasure
buried in you,
and lovingly offered unto Earth by you.

It glows in the red blood of animals,
the green blood of plants,
and the rainbow blood of spirit.

Your powerful arms gently push us,
gravitate us.
A loving relationship between brother and sister.
Inti and Gaia.

And the wild wilderness of our planet
is as it is
thanks to your warm embrace
of orbit.

Spirit of Earth



Earth you
wrapped me up last night,
curled up in your leaves,
breathing your love
like an embryo again.

I discovered
that I am born of you,
belonging to you,
absorbing your unconditional love
for me, and all of humanity.

I became a nature spirit in your arms,
and in our communion, all of me,
including the many forgotten parts,
were revealed.

You led me to the garden of my heart and mind.
Where everything is a delight.
Where internal love and beauty
(connection with source divinity)
reside.

I saw your magnaminoty
And truly
You are a Godess.

The sheer size of your presence
And the beauty of your
Emerald green essence and love
is striking
for a mortal to behold.

Now I understand
Why the Incas, and their millions of descendants,
Worship you as a Godess.

Because you truly are that.

I experienced your conscious being,
and for that I am grateful.
It is right to give thanks to you
Mother, Pacha Mama, Gaia.

Seeing you opened a door in me.
A door to the eternity and divinity within.
So many unconscious parts of myself
that all of a sudden
I became conscious of.

And now I know
That every person
Is broader,
brighter
and deeper
Than we are aware of.

There are so many other levels
of being, beauty and wisdom
beyond everyday human consciousness.

And now is the time
For reawakening.
