PRACTICE TWENTY-ONE


SP7Charcoal by Kimberly Donlon  




There is a way some people see other people with states of mind a psychologist may diagnose as a serious disorder needing prescription drugs. The same person seen by a spiritual healer, or medicine person may see into the depths and contrasts of the spirit of the face to interpret the spirit's condition to gauge the fragmentation of the soul, and the trajectory of its shattered pieces. There are terms for people who cannot distinguish faces the way most do. These people see the world of faces in variations that are difficult to explain, but with certain gifts of vision a few artists, and spiritual people can merge with these people and glimpse how the world looks to them. Other times there are musicians whose music is profound in the art of conjuring the images of another's view of the world with sound for others to glimpse the same.

I've seen people's face like this while others saw in the same face a handsome face, and I was left seeing the condition of a soul, a state of mind, or an emotional state forming into something troubled, dangerous, or crazed. Some times a life was saved seeing these things. To save a life at this level of being requires having a voice and practiced action in service to others. - Gregory E. Woods, Sirmiq Aattuq Wisdom Keeper 12.12.13
