The Descent Into Illumination

Hey there traveler, hope your doing well. Have you ever wanted to get loaded and ride a whale? How about take some acid and play pachinko with a Tuatara? Getting obliterated and wasted on substances isn’t just unique to humans but found across the natural world. In this meditation Jordyn and Tal discuss their top 5 “who do you want to drink with”. Thank you for stopping by, all music credited to B...

Hey there Traveler thanks for stopping by for another story on the Descent. Today Jordan argues that in the near future it is more likely for the octopus to become terrestrial where as Tal argue the Hogs retire the aquatic kingdom. What comes first the Octopoda’s new conquest, or the Merhogs rein of terror? Music: ⁠BAMF

Hey there traveler, this week Jordan and Tal speculate on the next super organism to colonize the world if humans just disappear. It won’t be the apes and it might be the raccoons but one thing is for certain. The hogs will have their era, and run wild across much of the world’s ecosystems. Hell they might evolve back into the ocean as the latest fish to return to the sea. Music: BAMF

Jump off the Turtle, Be here now, when the prophets’ songs are no longer sung, when the dharma finally dies, and when starlight vanishes from the sky take the chance jump off the turtle. You are the inheritor of a scared lineage who brough form and shape to emptiness. That spark you carry is a light carried forward by the universe’s deconstruction experienced here now. Always Traveler you are love...

One part of the human experience is a chronic uniqueness. Not just in that humans are special in any different way than a kappa or a fish but that every moment is something new. So no matter how deep you dive into the cave or soar in the heavens while we experience time we experience change from one breath to the next. So Traveler where’s your breath at?

It’s honestly a wonder how we have ever agreed on a collective truth. In all the times humanity has organized have we ever actually organized around what reality actually is? Or do the shadow masters in the cave keep building new fires?

A special thanks to the Traveler who inspired this ramble and breath. In a time and place where the speed of life is inhumane taking the time to stop and comeback back to the present moment to figure out and process the challenges in life’s story, getting to have these moments of connection to create expressive spaces for one another is what it’s a gift the Krystal Ball could have never predicted.

Stop and disconnect, take a moment to come back to your breath and deconstruct yourself out of artificial time and come back to natural rhythms of life.

Everyone says organize, show up, do this, be the change and fulfill the prophecy of being the main character. Okay well how do you be this shinning protagonist? How about making a friend and helping someone do some chores? Sounds like a good start.

When dealing with the existential, what do you do? When you have limited agency and can only take on so much risk, what do you do? When you are just living your life and you stumble upon new information, what do you do? Well to be honest it really depends on the context but in any of those context, you respond!
