Burke and Wills Tree in Recovery

The Burke & Wills
Moreton Bay Fig
is recorded to be
30 metres high and 44 metres wide!

Swan Hill is home to the biggest Moreton Bay Fig Tree in the Southern Hemisphere! Apparently planted around the time of the Burke and Wills visit through the town in the late 1800's. Unfortunately the Tree has been suffering for quite a few years now from a combination of an over crowded root system to a severe lack of water due to the ongoing drought.
According to experts, the great Tree is on its way back to life.
'Experts are confident the Southern Hemisphere's biggest Moreton Bay Fig tree is on the road to recovery.'

30.11.08 The new moon is approaching Venus and Jupiter.
The Sahasrara (Moon) which is the strongest,
approaches the Anahat (Venus),
then the Nabhi (Jupiter) in the sky
it's the closest they'll be together for a while...!
[The Sahasrara bringing the Heart and the Nabhi together!]

I think, I believe, I love....

...there are thoughts that resonate and lead us to love, and there are thoughts that disturb us; if we want peace, then it is up to us to distinguish the difference between the two....but how to do this?

There are many methods, which we explore and test out as we go along, and then there is an easy way, but do we take the easy path? Often not, the easy way is not so easy to accept for some of us, but more of that later....in the meantime, if you want to jump straight into the deep end, to the core of a Divine connection then go straight to: www.sahajayoga.org and 'experience it now'

Jai Shri Mataji!!!

Click to donate for FREE!!!

A favour to ask, it only takes a minute....

Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site needs people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman.
It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammograms in exchange for advertising.

Pass it along to people you know and tweet it on twitter!

Intro to Drawing - Scrunched Paper Exercise

This started off as an art blog, while I was studying Visual Arts @ Curtin, and this was one of my first exercises - Draw a 'scrunched up' bit of paper. I quickly started another Blog esp. for my art exercises and you can see that here:
