TRACKING A WOLVERINE AND OTHER STRANGENESS
*When you track a wolverine, he`s been know to circle around behind you and track you.
When he`s eaten his fill, he will bury the food but first he will piss all over it....and
is scent is almost as bad as that of a skunks. When he fights a bear, he goes right
for the balls. Since he`s faster and lower than a bear, he will often chase a bear
away from it`s kill. He`l break into a solitary trapper`s cabin, eat all his food
and ruin the rest and decimate the place, tearing everything up. You
get back to your cabin and your pillows are torn up; your long underwear is
in shreds, your blankets and your winter coat are torn
in half. And the place reeks... from the friendly fellow pissing everywhere.
Dangerous as the wolverine can be, he`s never been known
to laugh out loud at human folly. As far as I know, also, he`s never been
known to hide in your bed and jump you penetrate you when
you show up.
BUT these are stories about the bush. And myths are born in the
wilds, because strange things happen there. I`ve seen stranger stuff
than a the king weasel having sex with a human
I won`t tell you these things all at once, because you`ll think
I`m crazy. So I`ll slip these singular events into my stories one
by one, so you don`t write me off.
ALSO, this is a story about the bush, like a campfire
story, or a fishing story. Exaggeration has been known to
enter into these kinds of stories all the time.
STILL it`s good to remember that we live in the
midst of inexplicable Mystery all the time.
We live on a rock that`s travelling something like
eighteen thousand miles a second through space.
The sub-atomic world is a not just different than
we imagined it to be; it`s perhaps stranger than we CAN imagine
It`s a seething whirl of infinitesimal particles and
charges that now is appearing at times
to be conscious!
Consciousness can be encountered in
places
I have encountered consciousness
in places school and science insisted
consciousness could not be.
Let me ask you a question. If
there mysteriously appears to be consciousnerss
in the microcasm, is it not possible
there is consciousness in the macrocasm, also?
If you spend long enough in the bush
watching the water, and watching the birds
(as they watch you), and watching the skies...
And if you have no radio, phone or T.V.,
you will be surprised at what you may see.
For one thing, your telepathic
abilities increase dramatically.
You know when someone is going
to visit you, long before they appear.
And other forms of consciousness
may well approach you.
One of my favourite mystics
we talk about in the School For Mystics
is Meister Eckhart
He said:
"THE EYE WITH WHICH I SEE GOD IS THE SAME EYE
WITH WHICH GOD SEES ME."
This is what I`m getting at... this is what you might
start seeing in the bush.
