It's Friday ... Shamanism and Mystical



Whence comes the love? I caressed
other loops
And I have known
lips darker than yours.

The stars lit up and died
(Hence comes the love?)
And eyes lit up and died
Immersed in my eyes.

I heard other songs
the night dark and black
(Hence comes the love?) -
head on the singer's heart.

Whence comes the love?
And what can I do with teenage
Malicious vagabond singer,
For longer lashes that long?

Marina Tsvetaeva, February 18, 1916.

Is There A Fogger To Get Rid Of Mise

cry


I thought all the harm possible Kounen, because of the reputation of Dobermann (that of a movie 'mode', violence and gratuitous aesthetic) that I had not even seen. I vaguely knew, because of a feature film later, Blueberry (not seen), his personal journey had gone through shamanism. I had no idea he had done during one year, repeated experiments of altered states of consciousness, guided by a shaman Shipibo, Questembetsa, Peru.
other worlds the film he shot this year is less a documentary about the shamanistic practices (as such, it would be disappointing) that the story of an intimate experience, extreme and founder - narrative whose sincerity touched me deeply (through this experience, including Kounen said, "I realized that I had never lived in my body and I was never out of childhood "I quoting from memory, and those who know me know how this sentence could question me! He also speaks through the looking glass and experience closeness with death).
Ayahuasca hallucinogenic properties, has allowed the director to explore new territories inland to confront his fears, to shatter its old landmarks, its false certainties, and restructure a new way: Event of beauty and violence similar to those of a new birth.

One of those interviewed in the documentary Kounen highlights how Western rationalist denigrates these magical practices. We must recognize that, in many ways, I myself am extremely Western, rationalist (but I treat myself): Nothing makes me more afraid that people deserted by reason (it is "the Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters "by Goya), and I am also afraid when I feel myself to spend" wing of madness! But this fear is cohabiting with me (I believe it) with a strong curiosity about the unseen, a taste for monsters, and the undeniable temptation sinkholes.
The same speaker (I think it's the same) also emphasizes how to organize itself over time, the churches, they also moved away from such practices "magic". Indeed, with regard to Christianity, when we consider the origins of mystical experiences or those of the Middle Ages (all these cries, swoons, these spasms, these ecstasies, these tears, the agony!), One wonders how we could arrive at demonstrations of faith as warm and civilized than today (this reflection does not come to me by random: it is that I'm re-reading old notes devoted to the "mystic art" in the Middle Ages, but I will come back here, no doubt) ...

Suicide Texting Hotlines

Taste Other Festivals of


Since this blog is becoming customary Yaw extra-literary, as make me happy here and have a nice initiative of my friend Nathan: Nathan is a volunteer for years in an association that helps migrants, all migrants, regardless of their status administration.
long time, she thought of a project that would allow him to reconcile this activity with his taste and talent for Kitchen: This project has come into being, it's called Taste of the Other.
This is a monthly meeting around a meal prepared with four hands, between migrants and "French" rare encounter, sometimes impossible, between people who live side by side but not together. At each meal, "Chef" offers a menu of his country of origin, and Nathalie using the stove. The meal is a complimentary room lent by the municipality of the 4th arrondissement of Paris.
It seems important to support initiatives of this kind, because I do not see how we can collectively improve the human life on this planet if we remain stuck in our certainties, bundled up in our fears and barricaded across our borders (if anyone has seen anything good come out of such political and social choices, he notes, I'm interested!).
And here's the link to discover the blog of Taste of the Other, the very first pictures of the meals and what to do if you want to participate.

Milena Velba Milk Bags-nadine Jansen

secret


From Grand Meaulnes I kept strangely, since my teens, the memories of a sub-soaked wood, a path strewn straight dead leaves: the arbitrariness of memory! This is when what should I keep it, of course, the incomparable atmosphere of the festival which Meaulnes witnessing illegal, expensive blend of madness and deprivation, childlike joy and the sadness of things that end up .
This theme of the secret party, where there is a candid visitor (one who does not know the codes and advances in intruder, stomach, fear of being exposed among the masks), I find him in a movie that me made a strong impression, Eyes Wide Shut, Kubrick : of course, daydreaming of love Meaulnes around the person of Yvonne and fantasies that haunt Bill Harford, starring Tom Cruise, have little to do. However, love in the one and desire in the other take their whole force, I think he's fascinating and dangerous as they offer these festivals one and the other extremely codified (Meaulnes confronted with unexpected rules borrowed from childhood games, Harford to pseudo-religious rituals diverted for erotic). In talking with Mr.
, I realized that the posture of "candid" may cause discomfort similar to the anguish she could not look Eyes Wide Shut to completion. Home, the anxiety is there, but fun too, these celebrations with my mind a strangely distanced representation of my desires and my fears, in equal proportion.

How Do I Cover The Pipesbehind A Pedestal Sink

Times change ...


And as hope seemed to move away from the world, The United States, which we expected much more, give us a hell of a lesson.
The policy of Obama, is quite breathtaking in its mixture of idealism and realism, will perhaps not radically different from that which would have taken another Democrat, but the symbol the message that this country sends to the world by electing this man, with its color and history, is already changing the game.
Come, now ...

Rome still


I promised myself not to speak here of literature, and I do not want. But I have no regrets: in truth, anything that makes me vibrate feeds that I am, what I write, and is therefore a rightful place here.
So I no longer resist the temptation to say a word Rome, the series in two seasons (unfortunately no more) produced by HBO and that evokes the late Republic and early Empire. There among the Anglo-Saxon an amazing relaxation from Roman history and this series, which borrows without hiding to Shakespeare and Mankiewicz, is another testimony.
As often when constructing a fiction based on historical events, the writers of Rome reflect the clash between Pompey and Caesar, Mark Anthony and Octavian, without departing from the version commonly accepted facts of the great, and it is in the gaps of history, exploring the area of the intimate and the world of little people, they deploy all their fantasy fiction, shamelessly and to our pleasure.
But what is for me the most surprising success Rome that between the fictional characters (Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo, fabricated to help the viewer to enter the lambda History) and historical figures, it is paradoxically the seconds seemed to me the weakest and the most moving: I was literally fascinated by Ciaran Hinds in the role of Caesar, Tobias Menzies made me aware of humanity of Brutus; about James Purefoy, who plays Marc Antony, his charisma has nothing to envy that of Brando.
