Ode to Flaco- magical, mystical citizen of NYCPartial Transcript-Flaco, the Eurasian eagle-owl, beloved citizen of NYC died sometime early Friday morning, on Feb 23rd.The snow moon has just risen in the eerie early morning. The researchers from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation traced two unique lunar communication behaviors of the Eurasian Eagle Owl during each of the major phase of the moon: vocal communication and visual communication. During the full moon the Eurasian Eagle Owl is turned on by moonlight. The brighter the moon, the more frequent the calls. But along with the owls' vocalizations is the moon’s affect on the owls’ visual communication.The study is one of the few that have looked at intraspecies communication of nocturnal birds and the findings provide further evidence lunar cycles affect the behaviors of animal species.I choose to think that this celibate, monk-like bird was responding to his palpitating heart for his beloved owl mate. eagle owls communicate similarly at dusk and at dawn to when the moon is full, and suggest that this is because the amount of ambient light at dusk and dawn are about the same as a moonlit night.... shedding the aura of romantic hues this majestic creature was longing for the company of his mate. Eagle owls have white patches of soft feathers under their beaks that they show only when vocalizing. So, as the moon gets brighter, and the eagle owls are calling to their mates more frequently, so do these owls climb to higher perches where they can be more easily spotted. A grand freedom year to date, the Moon brilliantly relecting in the high perches of glass windows, Flaco obeying his avian instinct must have flown into his own reflection made bright by the vision of moon. He reached not the open skies, nor the enbrace of his beloved girl-owl but a crushing barbarism, crashing to his death. His spirit released, he is soaring in the high ethers alongside his proud ancestors, and perhaps there his spirit has already enjoined his beloved mate.His radical journey from captivity at the Central Part Zoo - from the time he was a fledgeling 13 years ago, to his absolute freedom on the historic day of Feb 2, 2023 when his cage was cut open, demands our reverential awe. Falco took his maiden flight to freedom and was never captured again until he laid down, body vanquished, spirit risen on the cold concrete slab at 89St on CPW. Flaco's momentous act of freedom has split open each one of our hearts. Owls are known to never follow the herd, they live independently, cherishing their own company, the ooutlier of the avian species.The freedom seeker, Flaco is a magical, mystical New York story. He is helping every disciples to reveal our own back story. Like every act of martyrdom in deeply troubled times, Flaco's plunge to certain death instills a reverence for the lifeforce, diminishing the fears we carry around toxic urban disease, death and dying. My own story swelled up inside my throat. I grew up in Greenwich Village; left the city to build my non profit school in the wilderness of North Carolina, acres of Cherokee forest where I could seed my Ayurveda gardens. But I kept returning to the city, to that imperishable creative vortex force where the spirit of its citizens is held in abeyance. After twenty years, the tide of harmony had turned in my forest. Barbarism against my person, as spiritual person, a woman of colour, a successful woman, a woman of Hindu origins, a woman of robes, escalated, targeted as I were by the brutal network of the  many tentacled patriarchs. So just a few months ago I decided to close my operations in NC and returned to my home base in the city, largely because I heard and empatized wiSupport the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

To parrot Frederich Nietzche, when we stare into the abyss for too long, the abyss stares back at us. I have found myself staring into the abyss,  perambulating its event horizon until my feet fell out, and my mind became blurred. The abyss staring back at me. Anger is necessary, it is a helpful way to vent, shout and scream out our rgae, discomfort, and tear out the injustice of it all. But anger has two faces; positive and negative. When we hang onto it, righeously or otherwise,  for too long, it boomerangs with the same force of its output.  Be aware. Never, never allow anger to fester for too long. Allow it to change and morph by shedding light to it,  "my persceptive may be askew"; "I am not able to see the whole truth of it", " I am tired and need to step back from it.".... many lanterns are there to help shed awareness. And this gives the neccessary repreive to dissolve the intensity and one pointed dagger of anger. As you may know from my work of Honoring Ancestors,  evert angry, wrathful, violent thought and/or negative response we have ever issued can be traced to the cellular memories we carry within our genetic composition which had been sculpted by familial bloodlines.  Ancestral memories mold our relationship to the world and can control our responses and behavior unless we bring awareness to them. The ancestors can be both the source of the hardship and the remedy.  Each time we allow a challenge to push our buttons, we push deeper into the murk of ancestral chasm.With ancestral awareness, and contInually bringing light to our angst, rage, worry, discomfort, we tend to make a more humane choice when faced with challenges. In this way, we transcend the ancestral ground of negative angst. We we grow, we morph into our humanity, always an uncomftable terrain. But, in so doing, we can elevate both ourselves and the ancestral spirits.  Peace Be Your Journey!Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

This illusive, sought after thing is not an illusion. It is tge ever flowing vibration beneath the grime, crime, and slime of living. It is immutable energy always present always accessible, if we learn how to stay open to it. Happiness is not what we think it is.  It is not to be found in the state of the mind. It is not a goal to be pursued. Like desires, it arises from the depth of our past impressions stored within the cognition over many rebirths. We can no more control desires than we can control happiness. It is ever-flowing, generated by the unconditional desire to be happy.  Happiness  blossoms when we understand our nature is happiness. Amid the dankness and chaos of our individual world and the world at large, we find ourselves hard-pressed to eke out the space and time necessary to pause, to breathe into the inner sanctum where the immortal happiness lives. But, this we must do- day after day, regardless and because of.  Our primordial nature is happiness, our nature is the pure desire for freedom, liberation form the endless cycles . Ultimately, it is the character of our happiness that forges the way to freedom and consciousness.  Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

Maya explores the way Sanskrit chants,  pilgrimages and other awe-inspiring practices of Nature heighten the natural scalar waves responsible for cohesion and wellness in the body. The way science views the pilgrim’s experience can be said, as follows:  Scalar waves generated in the body provide an energetic communication system that connects all cells. This energy contains the power of the universe and has unlimited potential.  All pilgrimages heighten our inner resource of positive vibrations within the body.  Positive mental attitude is communicated through the scalar field generated by thousands of möbius coils at the cellular level and can effect the cell’s mode of growth or protection. Scientists have created scalar wave generators for therapeutic purposes and have confirmed that a scalar field can create a twenty-fold stimulation of cell growth in human immune system cells.This heightened vibration was evident as my colleague and I journeyed along the magnificent southern plains flowing in tandem with the Kauveri River, a few years ago. I noticed how faithfully the river led, guided, and blessed us as we crisscrossed her boundaries. On this seamless serpentine route, rural women soaked fully clad in her abundance; they washed clothing by beating them on rock surfaces whilst children playing, splashed about in the water; white egrets stood on royal guard in tall grasses of the bordering marshland - protecting the sublime energy of wholeness in these raw, bare-chested villages. The scalar waves' energy was naturally heightened during this pilgrimage North and South in India. The feeling of awesome wellness pervaded.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

Today, I received the shocking news about an old friend.  She is an elderly mother who was evicted from her home by her one and only son and daughter-in-law.  At  every turn of life, we can come face to face with bitter  lessons, and the hearless actions of those who facilitate them.  During these times, it seems equally heartless to console the aggrevieved with words like, " remember the good days you shared, remember to keep your heart consoled by being grateful for the multitude of good things in your life, and not focus exclusiviley on the bitterness of the day." This too may seem like cruel advice given the tired moment while despairing. But....the way to healing all suffering  is through remembering gratitude. It is easy to be grateful for the kindness shown to us, for gifts of friends and joyful occasions.  But in the most important juncture of our lives, when the darkness of despair can shroud  hearts and souls, or during the lonely hours of despair, disillusionment, and/or disease when hope wanes, and support appears to be non-existent, and kindness cannot be felt, all is not lost: We have the way of gratitude to turn to, a conduit that for millions of years have been the proven way to recapture inner space, to stretch open the amity of our innate awareness, to lighten the burdens of the heart and to simply connect back to a universe that can never forsake us........a beautiful exposition by the one and only, Maya Tiwari, on the power of gratitude during the darkest of days. Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

A worthy rerun of this awesome episode: Although we may strive for hapiness in our lives, it often appears illusive.... but happiness is not a chase or a hunt, it is a primoridial longing in tge very cell and memory of our vital tissues. It is to be seized from moment to moment. Becuae it is generally wrapped in the mundane , in routines, in events we take for granted. Listen to the melody of the winds brushing against space, or the drops of water filtering into a pond, or the beauty of a grazing herd of deer, or meeting and reveling in the company of old friendships. Mother Nature provides us endless excursions of happiness if we listen to and feel her song, and most importantly, cherish it. Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

We are formed from the universal cosmic sound. The Vedic seers refer to this Sound as "OM".  This sounds incorporates all sounds. There are trillions of sounds which are endemic to our cosmos that heals. Every cell, memory and tissue is formed from the cosmic sound. Sound Medicine is our natural inner medicine, free and abundantly available in nature. Indeed, sound is central to the very act of creation. Vedic lore tells us that Goddess Durga rode her lion, carried her damaru (a small, double-headed drum whose sound is associated with the element of space), and drummed the world into existence. Sound, as healing force, is a cornerstone of all the great spirit traditions. Consider the idea that life itself emanates from sound, for what is sound but audible breath, the rhythm and melody of the One spirit that dwells within all things? Sound vibration is a manifestation of life energy, and that life energy, or prana, is the basis for self-healing.Listen In~Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

At this pivotal time in human consciousness evolution, at the third year milestone of COVID-19, the most important practice we can do is neither physical/emotional, or financial. It is the selfless practice of prayer – spiritual service that helps to restore ancestral memory so that we may heal the long ignored rift with the spirit world. In this way we can begin to heal ourselves and Mother Nature.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

We are forever healing. We heal into life. We heal into living and into death. We feel divided not because of our differences but because we do not support or allow each other the powerful diversity that manifests within each one of us. Our gender and biological sex is a potent example of this view. Gender differences is but one minute factor in the quintillion variety of nature’s  majestic realm mirrored within the  human person. To heal and reclaim wholeness, it is critical that we embrace the reality of Shiva-Shakti - and note the brilliant multiplicity of  energy which courses within and through each and every human person. This primeval force goes way beyond gender binary to the infinite.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

At every moment we can be rejuvenated by nature's sunds, music, the whistling of the wind, the plopping sound of the rains, the gushing waters, the hushed leaves of the autumn.  In my years as a Vedic monk, chanting the Sanskrit mantras on a daily basis kept my vibratory field high and illumined. During those years, I lived in a large pristine forest, chanted with cows, meditated with deer  and basked in the gift of Nature's inner medicine sound healing. Years later, I was to face the profound  experience of being targeted with violence and abuse that relentlessly escorted my life for more than a decade. In this episode I speak to my own expereinces of  fears, its impact of devastating gravitational pull to the lower vortex of darkness and loss and the phenomenal healing journey of  high vibrational sound that reawakened me to life.  May we always remember our blessings even through the dark gravitational pull of fear.  Listen In~Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

Awareness thrives when we are able to create and recreate space within ourselves; Especially during arduous, violent and brutal circumstances when living appears to close us down, we tend to shrink our joy, and sense of purpose. Maya unfolds the power of awareness through her own profound personal experiences.  She informs that awareness is the innate intelligence that is imbued in each and every person. She reminds us that the key to healing is in the preservation of inner space- that we must continually safeguard our inner space in such a way that at the end of every day we evict all unwelcome thoughts, absurdies, vile intrusions and simply breathe ourselves back into Being. Sit for brief periods of time in your eternal, every generating light of awareness. A reminder for this Intent:"I Am Aware. Awareness is my nature. I create and recreate space within me." Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

Through her tireless work with her charitable organization, the Mother Om Mission, Maya reminds us that at any time of the year when challenges arise  that first we take pause and then do the surprising healing action of opening palm to the outer world in a posture that awakens the memory of giving, the sentiency of our human heart. Dana Mudra, the open-handed state of awareness we must remember to keep alive so as to bond with each other , and keep humanity in kindness.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com

The time has come to rid the false belief system that keeps us mired in a "race" conflict. Maya elucidated the knowledge that we are all formed from an ancient genetic weave that interlaces our blood lines. The taboo of racial divide, racial hatred, bigotry has been paying out for centuries and we have bought into it. Humanity has endured countless invasions, terrorism, violence amongst empires and nations based primarily on "racial divide and varying ideologies. In fact, there has never been a time  when wars, invasions or violence were non-existent.There is burgeoning new evidence from genomic science that is inadvertently proving that we all have indelible blood ties to each other. What if I were to tell you that you are a composition of several genomic factors, and that there is no such thing as as the ethnicity such as being a person who is pure white, black, brown, yellow or red race? Our cultural genealogy is adapted and formed from the various interactions of states' invasions and occupations, trading among nations, vacation tourism, sexual tourism, inter cultural marriages.Did you know that Africa is not only the cradle of humanity but ancient African genes  may well be imprinted upon at least 2/3 of the world’s population?   Isn't it high time, we set aside our racial differences, embrace our myriad diversity and connect to each other simply as a person of the same humanity?Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com
