Marianne  Williamson




announcing  candidacy  for


President  of  the  United  States




My strategy isn't strategy.


My strategy is that I seek to speak as deeply, articulately and passionately as I can.


I'm not trying to figure out what to say to get people to vote for me.


I'm seeking to have the conversation that I believe we need to be having.


These are very serious times.


We need to be very serious, deep thinkers.


We need someone to articulate what's happening, the deeper levels of moral dysfunction.


I have had a 35-year career in naming and transforming those dynamics.


That's my qualification for the presidency at this time.

Spirit  Dancing





David Barnes   April 8, 2001  Sunrise Ranch



Mariya Kasow played the drum, accompanied by Arrow Flora on the didgeridoo, while David Barnes read a poem he wrote



David Barnes — We are going to share a poem with you called spirit dancing. It's about the Creator's Law, which we know is the law of giving and receiving in balance. It's about celebrating living the law around the cycles of the seasons—dancing the law—spirit dancing.


spirit dancing


the creator's Law bids us to dance

the solar pulse calls us to dance

the mother's heartbeat leads us to dance

the dance of the spirit draws us together

the creator's Law bids us to dance


we all are related in the dance of the Law

the Law is a gift

living is giving

dancing the gift

dancing the circle

dancing the cycle

round

seasons of plenty


dancing the cycle round seasons of plenty

dancing the seasons round cycles of giving

dancing to celebrate rhythms of living


we dance and we celebrate — living the Law

giving and receiving — being the Law

sowing and reaping — thankful for Law

the seed and the harvest — receiving the Law

ebbing and flowing — breathing the Law

the light and the dark — encircled by Law

the sun and the earth — oneness in Law

the rhythms of being — dancing the Law


dancing the Law brings a knowing in living

the Law brings us plenty

the Law brings us balance

the Law brings connection

the Law brings us power


a stranger arrived in the garden of glory

with ambitions and fears and demons and noise and obsessions

with

illusions of progress

convictions of sin

and they did their best

to stop

both the music and the dance

but the tide can't be turned

and the music plays on

and the heartbeat is heard

and the dance is forever


here

in this day

we join in the music and the dance of a joyous creation

woman and man — wakan and skan

dancing our love

for the

lord of the dance

dancing our love

for the

goddess of rhythm


the creator's Law bids us to dance

the solar pulse calls us to dance

the mother's heartbeat leads us to dance

the dance of the spirit draws us together

we all are related in the dance of the Law

the creator's Law bids us to dance

it's a good day to dance

it's a good day to dance

it's a good day to dance






I've been thinking about language, and the use of various languages to communicate. Some varied forms of language have already been used this morning — the language of the drum, and the language of the didgeridoo; the language of the spirit expressed through Mariya and Arrow. The language of the poetry, the words selected to clothe the rhythm, the information conveyed, the spirit of the words. I've been thinking of what could be called the one language, or the language of oneness — the language of love...
