The Humming is a Gift

 The humming is a gift even if it is at 3 am and it is accompanied by uncomfortable body sensations=pain.  The practice is to become the vibration, and sit with the pain.  Go back to sleep with the pain.  Let it become a lucid dream.  Feel the humming vibrations like a pulse, perhaps not your pulse, but an outside pulse that you can harmonize with.  Indeed, maybe that's the whole point of the uncomfortable nature of the humming, because my old body vibrations cannot accommodate or are out of synch with this new pulse which I imagine to be a pulse of ascension.  

The new pulse is like a heart beat.  Encouraging my body to reach up to the sun (or the moon if its at 3 am):-).  

And in the morning, when I listen to the podcast from a random zen center of person with a serious mien vibration reading Dogen or some other dead talking head and striving to follow his words, I can't help feeling like the student is becoming like sold earth.  That is the vibration.  The vibration of solidity.  And what she is describing becomes its own new sold form.

And no, Jon Anderson, music doesn't come from the Pleiades, and I'm not even sure that question makes any sense. For music has always existed, and is everything, and everything is in vibration, so the question of where something that is everything at all-times comes from is non-sensical.  But why not start the day with a non-sensical question/  It will get you out of the rut to be sure.

Space

 Space is a powerful mediation.  I mean, sure, as a container, the body meat-suit is fine.  It can hold a bunch of stuff.  Sometimes it feels me up to overflowing.  

But the body can also expand out to the room.  To the sky, to the earth.  And hold and come in contact with so many more goodies.   And when that happens the energy of the stuff that had been overflowing in the meat suit seems to pale in comparison to this larger self.  A larger container can hold more stuff, right?  More goodies.

Then it gets all blurry whether the expanded body is really part of the original body or not.  Whether the original body existed at all? Or whether the so called expanded body is really just the original body? Or whether neither of them really exist?  

Its kind of interesting to imagine images, especially nice friendly ones while you are doing all this inner/outer space exploring.  If you create nice images that vibrate all nicely, you can feel you whole body vibrate nicely.  You can tell yourself you are falling asleep.  You can tell yourself that the center of the universe is really behind the back of your head.  

Its all a really good time:-).
