You can often get the feeling that the world is very small. Everything is right at your fingertips and there is not much that is left which is unknown to us.
But, there are still things that are unknown, and dare I say that it should stay unknown and be dearly guarded from our inability to let things be.
In Peru there are some 15 tribes that are unknown to the public. These tribes are made up from nomadic, small family groups that move around frequently, with the common denominator that they all shun outsiders. Perhaps the faith of thousands of tribesmen in the past have not gone unnoticed to these last tribes on the earth..?
Just last October Indians were spotted from a plane in the south-eastern region of the Amazon rainforest.
“During the plane’s second pass, one of the Indian women, carrying arrows and accompanied by a small boy, gestured aggressively, whilst the rest of the group sought refuge in the undergrowth.” [source]
We should ask ourselves, why do they shun us so much?
Perhaps they simply know that contact with us will inevitable lead to their own extinction?
It is estimated that there are over 100 tribes around the world that choose to reject contact with the civilized world. Everyday they face dangers from logging companies trying to take their land, environmental pollution and diseases from which they have no natural immune defense. And not to mention the overwhelming culture clash from the apparent dangers of trying to be apart-of the civilized world.
As human beings we have a responsibility to them and ourselves to do what we can to help. We must because there are no one else that can. Many people understand that this is an age where there just isn’t much more room for mistakes.
These are the last true guardians of the Earth
and when they are gone - we are gone.
Such a beautiful song I came across, with both excellent lyrics and an amazing video to make it complete.
The band is called Kwoon and the song is called “I lived on the moon”.
Even though the music is very good, I wouldn’t have posted it if it wasn’t for the great lyrics. It’s pure poetry; the words express with such sincerity and heartiness the human desire to reach for the stars and to be true to ones dreams.
Lyrics:
Dear little lad
Here’s the story of my life
I lived on the moon (repeat)
Grey flying snakes along
Mountains of destiny while
The three tailed monkeys
Were drawing the stars
Light from the Sun and I
Hide myself on the dark side, alone
I’ve run so far
To find my way
Then I dream again.. alone
Dear little boy, listen
To voices of your soul
It showed you the way of
Silence and peace
Follow your thought and fly
Choosing all the things that you desire
Giant waves, fireflies..
Your dream will be your only shell
Your secrets, your hiding place, my son
Don’t let them try
To crush your brain
Let you go far
..my son
I’m thinking of broadening the areas I write about here. The problems with writing is that the form in which the text it is written in, in this case I mean this blog, slowly starts to dictate what you feel you can write about and what not to write about..
Isn’t that funny and strange at the same time? I think it is school psychology in it’s most basic form, and I don’t like it.
You see, the normal circumstances in which I feel at home talking about various subjects such as spirituality and everyday events is with you looking at you. This particular settings certainly takes a bit of time to get used to and it also takes time until you start to understand what it is that you are suppose to do with it.
Well, the warrior in me is starting to awake and is up for the challenge. To constantly tear down your own barriers and change thought processes is one of my favorite subjects. And it seems it is time for yours truly to live as he learns, as they say.
This is also a fundamental basics in living a spiritual life. You can’t grow if you feel you need to exclude parts of your being from yourself or everyone else. You are just the being you are, and your actions very much dictates your spiritual growth. You should never underestimate the power of doing.
