NEW LYRIC CORNER: LUNA - L98 (Supernatural Friends) By NDR



 LUNA- L98 (Supernatural Friends) by N.D. Rodriguez 11.26.13 Written/Arrangements.
Inspired by “THE WHALE” 2012 Documentary & Bob Dylan Lyric story telling.

V1
Luna, the Orca, just a Big Kid.
Charming ocean child…Wanting to play, make contact
Find family, just be friends…No fear of anyone or thing.
Left behind by chance, destiny or timely evolution…
To open hearts of many…timely evolution.
1st Nation People knew…The Spirit of his Mission’s truth.

(Native drumming begins w/ rock or folk guitar)

CHORUS:
Luna swim, dance… Free the spirit of man
Breach, soar out from water to air
Break chained minds, stone hearts
So spirit can grow…Clear above and beyond
What blinds their Sight and Soul.
Spirit Dance of Ancient Orcas…1st Nations Sing
Teaching what cannot be seen.
This Thing we call Friendship, Is Bigger than we know.
So much bigger than we know.
(native drums w/Rock guitar solo)

V2
1st Nation traditions of Nutkah Sound,
Chief Ambrose foretold his arrival before dying.
Little Orca L98, born in 1999.
Alone with his Mother, an unsual way
Millions of years, humans & Orcas yet to meet.
Only recent desire to connect,
By accident or timely evolution? Accident or evolution?

BRIDGE
Play, pet, speak to me…Open your heart to me.
I’m your Friend, Brother of the Sea
Never in the wild have I hurt you,
Only come to you for company & friendship.
1st Nations know me, 1000s of years here.
Across the greatness of time
Because of what we shared
I crossed that wall divide
Both needing family and friends,
In solitude we are incomplete
When you look into my eyes, you see my intent…
Of a fully conscious life. Looking into time,
Edge of the unknown.

Music/ Drum interlude

V3
Across the greatness of time, He crossed that wall divide.
Millions of years apart, this chance meeting,
Our shared neuron of the brain connects…
as they fight over what to do w/you
This Thing we call Friendship…is bigger than we know.

Still you trust them as they let you suffer
Just because you are trying to be their friend…
In the end, as Luna taught us, just by who he was.
This thing we call friendship, Is bigger than we know.
Supernatural Friendships, so much bigger than we know.

REPEAT CHORUS to end

WORD ART CORNER: Lost by NDR

LOST by N.D. Rodriguez *Copyrights 10/19/12

Lost herself for a while,
not by accident, for survival.
Didn’t know how lost
how long it would take.
To find herself again, though safe…
but hidden half alive
in the shadows of herself and others.

But The Others were looking out for her
as much as is seemed to her
she was alone or knew what she was doing.
There were signs to guide & light the way.
Not knowing why, so long…
how long, so alone she would stay.
Stuck between inherited and genetic history
of oppression and liberation.

Lifetimes ago…
Persecuted, tortured & burnt
for inner higher knowing.
Speaking out, healing, giving
sharing Higher Knowing.

Church Fathers and their crusading inquisitions
tormented, hunted & killed
Enlightened Innocents, with no need of middlemen
between self and God… so went the struggle.
Oh the deceptive corruptive power
of long ugly arms and hearts in the name of God.

Across time and space, if we let it,
It will still seep into idle hands and apathetic minds.
Fearful, hateful minds.

As is staying lost, another way of hiding…
Not so unappealing…
For what awaits awakened enlightenment precepts.
The Gentle Minds, Warm Heart Compassion Warriors.
Direct line to God, the Buddha Mind, Holy Spirit, Angels
and Eternal Truths…
Not to fight right or wrong
Or Shame you to Hell...


But to say we are the same deep down…
In Forgiveness and Healing the space between hatred & fear
With Warm Hearts and Gentle minds.
Staying Lost is no longer her option.
Namaste'

WORD ART CORNER: Golden Silence ny NDR

GOLDEN SILENCE by N.D. Rodriguez
Copyrights 10/9/11 (in honor of an eternal friendship)

Her answers are so gentle silent.
On a frequency only I can hear.
The wave of knowing
Reaches my inner eye
The smile of recognition
Understanding wisdom beyond years
A language only our souls can hear.

So easy and gentle to hold this balance
A God sent closeness meant for healing only.
Though scared and scarred, hard to face the mirror
The struggle and fear released will lead to healing.
Being in this place of knowing…
Safe and sound, gentle trusting souls.

At times what binds us to another…
Cannot be fully described or defined…
As made up of many true & confused feelings
Past, present, future entwine.
Rich woven complex emotional textures
That make a heart and soul align…

Was it a parents passing away
A sadness in their souls…
A history shared of survivors
Or passion for art, music, spirit work, 

nature things & children (of flesh & fur)...
 

 So much mutual context, compassion.
Foundation of unspoken understandings.
That gently, joyfully, spiritually bind these souls.
Golden Silent Beings, meant for healing.

God sent...Namaste'.
Made whole <3

NEW LYRICS CORNER: Guardians of the Sea

Guardians of the Sea by N.D. Rodriguez (in honor of T.V.)
Copyrights 10/16/10

V1:
She was born on land but she loved the sea.
And more than she loved the sea
She loved Blue Giants. Gentle, illusive, rarely seen.
Up and down the Pacific Coast
Fall into Winter then back down in Spring.
Ancient migration of phenomenal Beings.

V2
Enchanted by their size and intelligent eyes
Warm blood, need for air
Mating, birthing ritual, long lives
Not so different from our ways.
Thousands of years, across space & time
She loved them more than the sea.

Bridge:
Wondrous Giants of the sea
Dance and play to our delight.
Tiny Krill schools, oh feeding frenzies
Blue Giant’s fortified cuisine

Sweep and swirl and churn the teams
Breach the percolating waters
UP UP UP…cavernous chasm mega-gulp!
Slam!!! Waves shudder! Ripple tide...
Stunned awe and wonder
Force of nature, immense grace...
Touch the power, a momentary glimpse
Into ancient mysteries of time space.

CHORUS:
How do you speak to our souls?
How can we not listen?
Reminding us the sea’s health is in our hands…
Oh Great One, please guide us…
Help us get it right, help us get it right.
No more time to waste
We must, we have to for all our sakes.

We cannot fail you, please forgive our past trespasses
Must make it right now…
Gentle Giants, your fate is in our hands.

End Verse:
She was born on land but she loved the see.
And more than she loved the sea
She loved Blue Giants. Gentle Giants.
Enchanted by their size and intelligent eyes
Warm blood, need for air.
Mating, birthing ritual, long lives
Not so different from our ways.
Thousands of years, across space & time…
We cannot dismiss this eternal love that binds. (Repeat)

HEART & SOUL NOURISHMENT: On Forgivenss

IF OUR Hearts are closed (with unforgiveness, hate, any hardness)
We will not be able to receive the Miraculous New Possibility that the Universe is bringing. (to take the place of that hardness) Yet, it is held in trust for us by the Holy Spirit (or whatever name resonates) until we are ready to receive that love (in whatever form meant to be received)...
* interpreted from Marianne Williamson - A Course In Miracles

9/11/13 - The Humanity of Kindness...

Practicing the Presence through Mind and Meditation's photo.
May Peace be with You.......Namaste !
Peace & Hope in a time of fear, hate, uncertainty...can be hard. Letting a healing light ray of higher love pierce that dark place...even harder. The inequities, despair & pure inhumanity that fuel war, innocent human destruction & terrorism...unbearable. 

Still...the Human Spirit rises again & again. A Kind hand extended, a warm smile & a friendly word... strangers pass it on. Sobering moments bringing Family & Friends closer. The Humanity of Kindness...spreads the ripples of Higher Love further than the eye can see. What the Soul knows...& Heals ♥ ***NDR - 9/11/13

CLINICAL PASTORAL SPIRITUAL CORNER: In honor of Rosh Hashanah

L'Shana Tova ( A sweet & good new year)
Prayers for Healing (and candle lighting for Rosh Hashanah Eve)

"May the Eternal One who blesses all life, bless & strengthen all of us who struggle against illness.

May we, whose lives are touched by illness be blessed with faith, courage, loving & caring. May we experience the support & sustenance of family, friends, companions & community.

May we be granted restful nights & days of comfort. We pray for refu 'ah sh' lemah - precious moments of healing - & sense of wholeness in body & soul.

May those who care for the sick with their hands, their voices & their hearts be blessed with courage & stamina.

May those who pursue healing through medical skill & knowledge be blessed with insight, patience & compassion

May all of us, the sick & the well together find courage & hope. And let us say: Amen"

(for our Beloved Mrs. Fisher An Angel now, you are free from bodily suffering. In sadness, we mourn you. But in life, We will smile & sparkle with you eternally, grateful for the creative wings you helped us discover. And to all your lovely devoted caregivers & your family. It was so lovely to spend time with you this Sunday; singing, holding your hand, bringing you well wishes & love from others. Wishing you could've stayed with us a little while longer...)

Mary Magdalene's Gospels - "Lord, I see you now in this vision." And the Lord answered: "You are blessed, for the sight of me does not disturb you"  (Mary 10:12-15)

"It is in this intermediary imaginal realm that Miriam has her meeting with the resurrected Christ. As with the ancient prophets, God activates the necessary visionary, imaginal forms in her, so as to bring her to the Divine. It is only in this sense that Christianity can indeed be said to be born from the imagination of a woman."  excerpt from "The Gospel of Mary Magdalene" by Jean-Yves Leloup

SOUL THOUGHTS - Come near to Mother/Father God and Mother/Father God will come near to you.  - JAMES 4:1-10 (slightly revised respectfully for modern times... : )

SOUL THOUGHTS...

The deeper, more genuinely, intimately, connected we grow each day in walking, talking, living, breathing & Being our Truths; our gifts, our purpose, being there for others in Life...
The more False things; words, actions, past history, people in Life reveal themselves, heal themselves, shed away...
Not to hate or blame. Maybe a little saddness, disappointment even humor. Then forgiveness...

Of these old beliefs, of others... & self. Making room for more love <3  Rev. Norma D.

Eternal Mother Love - A Healing Dream Gift

In Mexico, there is a long tradition that equally values one's dream life. Lessons & adventures there just as necessary & important.

About a year or so ago, since our Mother passed away in 2000... she came to me in my dream... holding my adult-self close, as a Mother lovingly holds her precious child, looking into my eyes, Soul to Soul... w/out words, she said " I love you, for all you truly uniquely are..." w/pure unfiltered Love & Acceptance.

In Spirit now, she understands what she couldn't in body. Our life's struggle & work together, complete. Enlightened, Eternal Mother Love. Forgiveness, Acceptance, Joy & Liberation of Souls.

The Original Founder of Christianity: Mary Magdalene & her Gospels

Only in 1969, did the Catholic Church officially repeal Pope Gregory's labeling of Mary as a whore, a few thousand years later admitting their error. French scholar, Jean-Yves Leloup's "The Gospel of Mary Magdalene" (2002): From the beginning, considered to be the "Apostle of Apostles", Mary was the 1st to see Jesus resurrected & he divulges words to her that were unknown to the other disciples...including their mission before his final departure..."Christianity born from the *imagination of a woman" (* the intermediate realm btwn God & humans)
