    Graveyard Meditation

    “You have to go to Kassim to meditate. Now. Alone.” AM blurted this out around midnight while we were at the beach meditating. I am like WWWWWWHHHHHHAAAAATTTTTTT??? KASSIM IS A FREAKIN’ GRAVEYARD! Kubur Kassim to be exact. Nestled in an idyllic private housing estate. The graveyard? Not so idyllic. It’s one of those scary Muslim burial sites with overgrown shrubs, fallen trees and those scary willowy trees with hanging roots. Like the banyan tree. This graveyard is said to date back to beyond the 1800s. Some older members of the community have mentioned that people have been burying over the older graves which date back hundreds of years.

    A New Beginning

    February 2017. The month that changed my life. The month I rekindled my connection to my guide, myself and ultimately, to consciousness. I journeyed back into finding myself. Into finding truth. It was tough initially. Trying to feel from within, rather than allowing the external to control the internal. Ok, that probably just sounded like goobledygook lol. Well, the key to connecting spiritually to just about anything, involves looking on the inside as opposed to finding it from outside. You can’t find yourself or connect with anything through information sourced from books, other people, or the internet (or blogs like mine! ). Over the course of my next couple of posts,…
