The Dogs of Time

"The Dogs of Time are barking the Dawn of Hours, hours of endless waiting." ~ from a poem I wrote when I was 24, 20 years ago...

The Age of Aquarius, the Water-Bearer, is dawning. The astrological sign of my mother's birth. The dawning of a new age. Listening to Mata Mandir Singh's "Turn of the Age", with it's version of 'The Age of Aquarius' and also 'Humme Hum Brahm Hum' is the background as I read from Yogi Bhajan's "The Mind: Its Projections and Facets":

"But those who belittle you and try to bring you down are just dogs of the time. They have to bark. They are emotional creeps who cannot do anything but what they do. Love them anyway. Be confident of your own consciousness and let life be vast and creative as it is....

...Don't get hurt by trusting them. Do offer trust to life. When you cannot trust, then at least love. Hatred will go against you and kill you. Vengeance will ruin and cripple you. Anger will rend and cripple your body, and initiate every disease. Your mind may drop those angers and mistrusts, but they leave a scar in the body and wear it down, so live with lightness and patience." ~ p. 114

Hatred. Vengeance. Anger. I've been down this path before. It made me sick with CFS, mononucleosis, strep, asthma, eczema, chronic bronchitis, unexplained vomiting, IBS and other things. It isn't worth it. Let life teach those people...as it will.
