Griffin | The One Who Wraps Himself
“…As the bearded griffin,
the Humay, lives on Mt. Qaf because he’s native to it,
so you should live most naturally out in public
and be a communal teacher of souls.”
Theodore Roosevelt | Inaugural Speech
For those who won’t stand on the curb of life,
nor watch the parade pass by,
who instead, chose to join the muse,
and brashly walk the line!
“It’s not the critic who counts;
nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done better.
The Art of Seeing with the Eyes of Buddha
By Linda Johnson, SGI-USA WD Leader Nov 2003 (Abridged) Edited by Adrian Mollica April 6th 2004 I think the ability to hear ourselves, and the ability to see everything from the viewpoint of Nichiren Daishonin’s Buddhism, means to be able to view all of life from the standpoint of the law of causality.

Taj Mahal, India
Stars, sparkling, mystical in your eyes,
Hopes, high, flung up to the sky.

Frozen Beach
I raise my left foot to tip my toes in. Instantly, marionetted, I am yanked up, draped up, dragged up from above, suspended in time; floating, just grazing, never breaking, the aquamarine still. The uproarious laughter of an old Latin man surges up around me. I can’t see him but sense deeply, his knowing, the taunting in his sound. I’m horrified of being dunked into the gaping depths beneath my dangling feet.
4 | Come Together
A quick vid from the audience – posted on YouTube – another beautiful Civello @ Aveda Congress escapade was developed to fit into the Aveda Congress’ overall theme of “Pow Wow” – a gathering of peoples/tribes/cultures from all corners, coming together as one.
It was titled “4” to reflect on the First Nations lore that we are of four spirits; east, west, north and south – or alternatively: red, yellow, white and black. With this as our foundation and inspiration, we told the story of how these four peoples, who co-existed harmoniously in the beginning, came ultimately to find that we are indeed much better as one.
The gift of this show was that we had a massive screen for stellar graphics created by the brilliant Travis North. The images were amazing, challenging the audience, many a times to separate the real form the surreal.
Brilliant and beautiful, and thankfully, tech-glitch-free. We received a standing ovation. It’s always good when it works.
