Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

I am delighted to start off the celebration of Albert Klamt's birthday. It has already dawned in Europe, where you were  born, and it's now mid morning where you live!

So, without further ado, Albert,

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Oh, Albert, Seine Geburtstag !!!! I hope it was a day of celebration exactly as you would have wished, and may the next powerful transformative year be EASIER for you !!!! We are honored and blessed and enriched and expanded by your participation in this community. I think most people here don't have a clue about the role you are playing in helping to uplift Germany, Europe, and the world. I barely glimpse all you are doing, and it's pretty damned impressive!!! You see things clearly and subtly, you have a vision for how things could be better, and you help people with connections. That much I do glimpse.

With profound appreciation,
OM Bastet

Happy Birthday,namaste,from roamer

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Roamer,

now the time has come to bring this change to the transformation of the mainstream, structures and systems. Keeping very real and down to earth with what needs to be done. However not in a bloodless idealistic way but with self expression too and celebrating all the differences too:)

Not fearing any failure too!

Best,
Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

In response to the above post by Albert 

Oh yes! Albert:

Now at last this transformation ” .  .  .  of the mainstream (that means me too) structures and systems .  .  .  ” is happening and felt.  (And I hear so from others also in the mainstream).   It is ”.  .  .  very real and down to earth .  .  .” 

The initiation can be dark, painful and confusing but if one believes in the process and holds on, that one is changed (transformed) and so is life. 

I had to say it. 

Now,  Happy Birthday and Congratulations.  It is also a Day of Thanksgiving for the light that you are  that all may see. 

Namaste  

Joyous Mary

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Dear Mary,

wonderful! May we both share lots of new discovery cycles in the times to come and never cease to be delighted, to be surprised, to laugh and to celebrate!

Enjo a great time,

Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Om!!

Thank you so much!

There will be a new cycle of work next year. its just in the take off. And there will be new alliances not imagined before. Its always easier then and as much new pathways and unexpected new expressions from the emerging consciousness find their way.

No doubt I appreciate what YoU are facilitating too. I enjoy profoundly going unchartered ways and breaking through the patina of social, poltical. spiritual and sexual correctness. We need a clear, transparent, lucid fluidum AND the powerful emantions from the instinctive , intuitive and energetic worlds in evolution.

The shocking, flickring flashes from the unfolding now. What Nietzsche, Whitman, Blake, Nin, Wolff, Arendt and other men and women saw and felt and expresed.

This is more alchemy and magma mastery than straightforward masterminding. Its a new integration of female/male polarity beyond all clichees and stereotypes. Combined however with perspectivic new perception at the various cutting edges..

Thank YOU, I enjoy learning and laughing with you and from you!

Ingebrita! Even a trip through the bonfires and hells of the world(s) could be juicy. Humor and a lighthearted attitude to it all will make it all happen!

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, lieber Albert!


You have become such a very dear friend. I always look forward to your insightful and thoughtprovoking posts in the God Pod and in the Multilingual Pod and your regular blogs. You have opened my world tremendously, given me a window on Integral Europe and into the heart of Germany.


Much love,


Nicole

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Danke, Nicole!

Europe and Germany are growing in thousands of ways. There is neither integral Europe nor Germany at this moment. However hundreds of most divese impulses are growing and converge to a certain degree.

The more our hearts and mind are provoked and nurtured the more can be opened.

The deeper emotions and souls can flow into life -beyond anything which is only interesting and making us curious - the more powerful and heartshaking it will become.

Blessings. light, laughter and thanks!
Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

I love that, Albert, heartshaking. Yes, yes! Ja, jawohl, danke schoen,

Liebe,

Nicole

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

God bless you, Jagadish! May the best of all worlds come to you too!

Namaste,
Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Albert - Om Bastet said about you, ”You see things clearly and subtly.”  Those words are a fine tribute.  May you enjoy the happiest of birthdays, on this, your 55th.

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Laurie,

thank you very much!

Now I will put more punching line and impact into my action and life. To make seeing of things a muscular force. To shape psychophysical reality in a very personal way. i will be happy to shift into this new modus:):)

Very best,
Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALBERT!!!

How I would love to possess the gift of writing such wonderful Birthday Blessings & Intentions as you wrote to me!  You are such a Blessing and were one of my first friends on Zaadz!  You have great insights and intuition and such an encouraging way of showing your support.  Your timing is impeccable!!!

As a fellow Scorpio you “get me” and that is a huge gift!!! LOL!

I understand that this past year has been a transformative year for you and congratulations for facing the challenges and embracing the Love!  The BEST IS YET TO COME!!!

I see that Phoenix rising and I thank you for choosing to incarnate here for such a time as this! 

May this year bring you many, many blessings, more Love, Light, JOY, Peace and Laughter!  May you surpass your goals and reach even higher ones!!!

I am grateful, Albert, to call you friend and appreciate you more than I can express. 

Much Love & Gratitude,
Starseed

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Albert, seeing that you like car racing here is my attempt at finding a birthday cake with a racing theme!!!  LOL!!!

Love, Light, Peace, Joy and Laughter,
Starseed

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Sparkling birthday wishes to you Albert - I had to reply specifically to this post in order to pick up on a couple of Starseed's words (oh, hi, by the way!)  Personally, if it were up to me, which thankfully it is not - from my less than even mid-forties perspective, I'd be wishing you a birthday cake with not a, “racing theme” but rather a “racey one!*!*” In the interests of not being too riske I resist the temptation to post my favourite Enigma track, the principles of lust.  Nudity here in former east Germany, as I'm sure you know anyway, barely gets a raised eyebrow since FKK is such a long, established tradition.  Still, as my German is my second language, suffice to say, “Ganz, ganz herzlichen Gluckwunsch” on your Special day.  I hope you are able to celebrate in style!  

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Dear Winterfruit,

I like it risky!

Here are Enigmas principles of lust:) Thanks. Albert

Lyrics:

Procedamus in pace
In nomine Christi, Amen…
Cum angelis et pueris, fideles inveniamur
Attollite portas, principes, vestras
et elevamini, portae aeternales
et introibit Rex Gloriae
Qius est iste Rex Glorie?
Sade, dit moi…
Sade, donne moi…
Procedamus in pace
In nomine Christi, Amen…
Sade dit moi qu'est ce que tu vas chercher ?
Le bien par le mal ?
La vertu par le vice ?
Sade dit moi pourquoi l'evangile du mal ?
Quelle est ta religion ou` sont tes fide`les ?
Si tu es contre Dieu, tu es contre l'homme.
Sade es-tu diabolique ou divin ?
(3x)
Sade, dit moi…
Hosanna…
Sade, donne moi…
Hosanna…
In nomine Christi, Amen…
B : Find Love
The principles of lust… Are easy to understand
Do what you feel… Feel until the end
The principles of lust… Are burnt in your mind
Do what you want… Do it until you find Love…
C : Sadeness (Reprise)
(3x)
Sade, dit moi…
Hosanna…
Sade, donne moi…
Hosanna…

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Phew…! I am wiping my brow as you breathe/speak ……  let the god's of profound connection be praised, 
Hosanna! Albert! ….thank you.

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Starseed.

having done car racing in some smaller circuits long ago, but having practiced martial arts for 3 decades in the most realistic settings I see parallels. The number one 1 hero in formula 1 car racing is Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher. However Ayrton was the one who could describe the inner landscapes and inner game of racing in mind and midbrain, in the guts and emotions, in drama and peak experiences best.

His bio written by Christopher Hilton gave me great insights. Ayrtons extreme passion and boldness when it comes to thrive under most complex conditions, his lucid obsession with the fast paced flow of time, his flashing perception in the midst of obstacles, his intuition bordering with telepathy and his radical committment to discipline and an iner world far beyond any status symbols and mere outer games:

All of this gives Ayrton a central role in my personal pantheon of genius.

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Yes, the best is yet to come! I can tell you that even the distinctions between so called higher and lower goals(values has collapsed for me. Its simply the unfolding now. To celebrate its emrgence and discover more and more the simultaneous manifestations, the living space between some of us is such a felt miracle.

I will shape a year totally expressing my own soulprint and inviting others to do so too. Within all the strong We fields I want to discover more unique, personal and subjective diversity. Voices, faces, gestures and forms of light, laughter and love and life.

Out of the silence and making visible what no one else could make vsibible.

Blessings and joy!

Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Happy birthday

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Albert,
you're a very reflective person
I am curious to know
do you reflect on your birthday?
and if so,
what kinds of thoughts do you entertain? :D

Happy birthday from South Africa!
My aspiration is that you continue reading from that alltime best seller….
the book of life
opening new chapters and exploring them to the fullest

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Gien,

yes. I am reflecting now for decades:):)Especially on times of B Day.

Just read my thoughts from last year.

More important for me however is making decisions and creating landing stripes for the future.

As my colleague Gary A. English, founder and CEO of International Colege of Media arts and Sciences said these days:

“Never allow your memories to be greater than your dreams.”

So every reading needs conversion into life and action. Especially Tibetan Buddhism (I was student of Lama Pema Dorje for 2 years 25 years ago)needs new perspectives for action.

Tto bring transformation to ones life and the world is the most complex endevor one can imagine. What i communicate here at Gaia is a small fraction (already very time consuming) of my unfolding  understanding in last 4 years.

I have always appreciated diversity in my life. Considering myself beeing a maverick. Consensus is however needed and to be understood in the culture one lives in.

What kindof thoughts do I entertain? Well, feelings too. I will sumarize it in the words of Karlfried Karl Duerkheim, whos teachings I follwed for a short time in the 80`s:

Karlfried Graf Duerkheim


The Way of Transformation

The man who, being really on the Way, falls upon hard times in the world will not, as a consequence, turn to that friend who offers him refuge and comfort and encourages his old self to survive.

Rather, he will seek out someone who will faithfully and inexorably help him to risk himself, so that he may endure the suffering and pass courageously through it, thus making of it a “raft that leads to the far shore.”

Only to the extent that man exposes himself over and over again to annihilation, can that which is indestructible arise within him. In this lies the dignity of daring. Thus, the aim of (spiritual) practice is not to develop an attitude which allows a man to acquire a state of harmony and peace wherein nothing can ever trouble him. On the contrary, practice should teach him to let himself be assaulted, perturbed, moved, insulted, broken and battered - that is to say, it should enable him to dare to let go his futile hankering after harmony, surcease from pain, and a comfortable life in order that he may discover, in doing battle with the forces that oppose him, that which awaits him beyond the world of opposites.

The first necessity is that we should have the courage to face life, and to encounter all that is most perilous in the world. When this is possible, meditation itself becomes the means by which we accept and welcome the demons which arise from the unconscious, a process very different from the practice of concentration on some object as a protection against such forces.

Only if we venture repeatedly through zones of annihilation can our contact with Divine Being, which is beyond annihilation, become firm and stable. The more a man learns whole-heartedly to confront the world that threatens him with isolation, the more are the depths of the Ground of Being revealed and the possibilities of New Life and Becoming opened.

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

The more we are able to confront our fears
the more we will be able to penetrate their illusory nature
seeing that we are the ones
who give them their power

So every reading needs conversion into life and action.

In this sense, Gaia is just one giant shared journal
a repository of shared wisdom
and what we take from it and bring into life and action
wisdom learned from everyone here
can serve us well

The more a man learns whole-heartedly to confront the world that threatens him with isolation, the more are the depths of the Ground of Being revealed and the possibilities of New Life and Becoming opened.

All possible dichotomies and dualisms
arise from the same unnamable source
and until we can look without fear
at that which we continually avert
we cannot possibly have a direct experience of the divine
Indeed, that continual aversion
is what keeps us continually separated

Happy B-day! :D

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Thanks Che!

When evry inch of the flame of individuality is visible and enacted life comes in surprising ways. Which cannot be stopped. The difference between the so called ordianry and extraordinary life collapses. The great health (Nietzsche) emerges.

This clip is wonderful piece of animation art.

Joy, life and laughter!

Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year

Dear Stephanie,

this yellow rose is a special joy for me!

The song was one of the very first songs in English language I heard as child-before I was 10 years old.

it even has a special smell and emotional taste for me.

Thanks from Berlin! I was born in the German Ruhr Area. (see my profile page) We have great sympathy for Texans:):)

Thank you!

Albert

Re: Celebrating with Albert - a powerful year
