    <description>Somewhere deep inside, you know what your gift, purpose, and mission are.  Boyd Varty, a lion tracker and life coach, reveals how the wisdom from the ancient art of tracking can teach you how to recognize these essential ingredients in a meaningful life.  Know how to navigate, don’t worry about the destination, and stay alert. These are just a few of the strategies that contribute to both successful lion tracking and a life of fulfillment.   Trackers learn how to use all of their senses to read the environment and enter into a state of “greater aliveness.” When we learn to find and follow our inner tracks, we learn to see what is deeply important to us.

  <description>Modem life is built on a truth and a lie. 
Excerpt from Braiding Sweet Grass, a beautiful book about indigenous wisdom, scientific knowledge and the teaching of plant.  The land is the real teacher all we need is mindfulness. 
It is surprising to me how much time giraffes spend down by the river.  Like an artist I’m trying to see things differently.  I look beyond them walking to a geometry.
The trick to transformational processes is how to interrupt and shape patterns, in order to do this you must look at the spaces between things.  How everything is touching everything else in relation.
Down in the river the leopards continue their passions.  I have not felt compelled to go and find them.
To go and seek them out now seems kind of impolite.
I’m developing a theory on why mystics went to nature.  Imagine you are two people: a fanatic city dweller and a wild person.  When the mystic goes to nature they find that wild person who knows a different rhythm.  The one that gets attention becomes abiding.
Today my body was tired and I ebbed into a lower level of frequency.
In my masculine excitement I’m drawn to activity, but right now its the meditation that is calling me.
A side note on tracking.  Right now it seems that all four of the prides of lions that frequent the Londolozi are on neighboring properties.  There is an air of excitement about this at it means that they will be sure to return in a couple of days.
Learning to See:  A many called Ken Tinley once tuaght my father how to see a tree.  There is a difference between how something works and what it means.
“When you look at a tree, see the soil that holds it.  Understand that soil feeds it and the tree also enriches the soil.  It’s shade invites shade grass and its stem alkalizes fruit which bring in monkeys which cause leave to fall which cause antelope to browse below.
Wouldn’t it be interesting iff we all spent some time looking at nature this way.  Or at your relationships or garden.
In native culture, ceremonies are a time to remember what we remember.
How something works and what it means are different things.
