I agree with Lynn. In the end it is so stunningly ........... that it can't EVEN be shared verbally. We come very close to saying it....but, thank goodness.....it can't be verbalized, or catagorized. Glad to know that there are others out there on the journey walking the Path. :-) A Friend. <strong>Robin Replies</strong> Dear "Friend", Oh, this is such a beautiful comment. It comes from one who "knows". This did me so much good to hear this. It's exactly how I felt. I think the deepest knowing and truth have no words. In fact, I think words desecrate these deep intimate places. I too am glad there is another on the great journey. Thank you SO much. Robin...a friend. :) Thank you for sharing yourself in your Grand Adventure. I agree with Lynn. In the end it is so stunningly ……….. that it can’t EVEN be shared verbally.

Reading your words, "I am no longer the same" makes me long for an awareness-enhancing episode like that. The fact that you could not tell us more tells us everything. The last photo here looks like a Raven-Person. If that is you.......if that is you on this vision quest, well it stands to reason that you of course are no longer the same. Just look at your shadow!

I was in the middle of writing a comment here a few minutes ago and then the power went out. I was able to restore what I wrote and realized, I still am not sure that I have anything to offer here but a hug. My experiences of the last week are insisting on my being Patient and not letting the obstacles tossed in my path be anything more than an attempt to get my attention. Hopefully, soon, I'll figure out what it exactly was that my attention was required for... :-) Enjoy the process... and take care of yourself! Robin;

You had an experience and I just LOVE what you said about seeing the perfection - it is there, in every single situation!!! And you chose to see it. I just recently came back from my own trip at the cottage. It was glorious too and peaceful, rained almost everyday, and there were still some black flies lingering around so didn't get to do as much hiking as I would have liked but, there is a reason for all. I came back rejuvenated but have to tell you I want to go back so much, after 2 weeks I feel like I was just beginning to open up to what I really wanted - I guess as much nature as we get in the city it still is not the same as being surrounded by nothing except for water and trees. Anyhow, again I am thrilled all went well - and I know I can use that word because it did :) Robin

I envy your spirit, Robin, and always enjoy your enthusiasm for life and adventure. I am thrilled your trip changed your life, as long as it only enhanced what already is a wonderful one. peace, mike livelife365 This sounds like a spirit walk, where you put yourself into a secluded place and then let nature, and the gods, take over.

I remember once, I was on a cave expedition in the Yorkshire Dales. I had been underground for around 6 hours, in confined spaces that suddenly opened out into amazing underground caverns and then again returned to narrow letterbox tunnels that had been cut out from the limestone by water erosion. I was mostly immersed in water, but I was loving it...then gradually I became aware that I was losing control of my legs and was going into exposure conditions. This was a bit of a problem as I was around half a mile underground at the time and although I was on the return journey, it took a long time and the help of a companion, to drag me slowly along with him. For days after, whenever I closed my eyes, I saw the interior of the cave. I felt so small. I was grateful to my friend and in no doubt that I had come into the presence of nature in all it's power. The natural god was not compassionate, nor vindictive, nor judgemental - and I found something, utterly more sacred and profound than I had found within a church or cathedral. Your experience and ability is so much more than mine Robin, but your account has made me remember the first time I really comprehended my God. love henry Hi Robin ~ It seems you have had a very opening experience.

You will find the true treasure of your experience, and I bet you will spend it wisely. Robin,

I am just SO blown away by all the insights, ideas, caring, sharing, depth, beauty, love, brilliance, wisdom and more in these EXTRAORDINARY comments, both on this post and my last one, Alone, But Not Lonely. I've wanted to answer every single comment here and have felt frustrated not being able to. Work and few other unexpected occurrences have kept me away from my desk. Your comments here have been some of the most exciting I've ever received. You each are FILLED with compassion and insight. Your comments have actually helped me better clarify my vision quest, and not just my quest, but all challenging experiences or life-journeys. I hope to at some point do a post from many of the ideas and insights you sparked in me. You guys are just great! The absolute best. I've fallen in love with you all and am just soooo amazed that I have the privilege of sharing with and learning from such an astute and caring group of souls. Each of you radiates your own unique intelligence, power and creativity and collectively you're indomitable, a highly positive force. There really is something so amazing that happens when positive souls gather. Next post I hope to be able to respond to your comments. Thank you for bearing with me and for all the help, encouragement and love you shared through this Journey of Soul. I will always treasure it. Always. Love, Robin You are amazing souls!!

Here are a few legal things that may help you next time. Ginseng and Siberian Ginseng: Eleutherococcus senticosus Commonly named Siberian Ginseng, this plant is not of the Ginseng family. This member of the Araliaceae family was first discovered by a Russian physician (Grorovoy) who observed wild deer eating a "spikey"shrub during harsh winter conditions. Pharmacologist I.I. Brekhman experimented with swimming mice, who were able to swim 30% longer and further than controls. The "true ginseng" has been prescribed for heart disease in China for many centuries. If you're climbing to a height of more than 6,000 feet and you experience headache, fatigue, or nausea, you may be suffering from high-altitude sickness. To prevent an episode or speed recovery, try taking ginger. According to herbalist Christopher Hobbs, ginger is "good for both mild altitude sickness and exposure to the cold." Put fifteen to twenty drops of ginger tincture in half a cup of water and drink. Take care my good friend. Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) I have to confess that I have been in love with the Ginkgo Tree ever since I lay under the first one I ever saw at Tanglewood, a gift from China. Little did I know that Ginkgo has such an amazing effect on the microcirulation of the brain, eyes and lungs. It is perfect for high altitude sickness, asthma, macular degeneration, dementia and any condition of tissue starvation. It also seems to be a strong inflammatory mediator, particularly in asthma and we have used it at ISIS for vertigo, tinnitis, and to protect the integrity of newly-formed blood vessels. This is the standard choice for increasing the blood flow to the brain. http://www.theherbaladvisor.com/The_Herb_Garden_32/The_Herbal_Apothecary_F-N.shtml People in Peru have long used coca tea or coca leaves to prevent altitude sickness, but since coca leaves are the source for cocaine it is not legal to use in most parts of the world.
