Have You Read This?

Buddha In Redface

By: Eduardo Duran Ph. D

A true story. You wouldn’t believe it. Some folks actually won’t believe it because they’re just not ready for it yet. This book bridges the two cultures I look towards for guidance in the most storytelling way possible. It started with the dreamtime. What is the dream time you might ask?

I share this quote of thew dream time in the second picture:

It took me a while to get it. I read it over and over. Soon the dream became aware of itself. Hahahahaha! This is an ancient secret as far as time goes. They use to communicate through the dreamtime. Send messages of prophecies and pass down what we know as history.

“When the Iron birds fly in the sky and when the iron horse moves across the land, the Buddha will be in the land of Redface”

A story that tells about the interconnected karma we live in. A hard thing to hear: that all the suffering and pain multiple generations have gone thru and are still going thru is all for a greater purpose. It is a price our ancestors agreed to pay in order to restore karmic harmony. “Suffering is scared and has a lot of energy. It is not wasted as it would appear on the surface. Right within the pain is the medicine.” This was all a reminder to myself that nature is always in balance. It is our awareness that sometimes gets out of balance and then we must go through the natural process to get back into harmony with nature. (Duran, 111).

Sidenote: There’s a man on TikTok recording himself around Los Angeles telling people to evacuate the state of California because there is a big earthquake/tsunami approaching. He ask other individuals who have been having the same collective dream of running away from rushing waters, skyscrapers and cars being overrun by the waves. Some say they have dreams of surviving and taking care of their families. He even has a t-shirt that says “evacuate the state”. Thinking of how we’re in a number 8 year and heading to a number 9 year, I reflect back on what it means - mastery of ones self and endings of old ways - it could be happening. I definitely think it’s peculiar that people are having the same dreams all over. You always just gotta be prepared is what I’m saying hahaha!

Back to this book: If you think you’re ready to listen, I’d definitely read it. You’re going to hate Carl in the beginning and be very suspicious of him, but you’ll come to understand him at the end. S/O to my old man Tarrence. He’s been an elder to many of us. I hope his spirit is doing well.
