The
Eagle represents the undifferentiated whole, the giver of Life,
the spawning ground for the pairs of
opposites that populate the world of material dualism.
goes beyond the conceptual
into the realm of dreaming and pure experience, where
the Eagle is the center of all the emanations of the Universe,
the consciousness
that bestows life and also snuffs out life at the end of the
road.
You have to
read between the lines to "get" that sort of stuff, y'hear? If
everyone "got" that sort of stuff, we'd all be one Big Happy Family,
like the mural on the side of the Native Drop-In Center suggests. But
since we don't "get" that stuff, we still go round and round in
circles and pretend to learn the lessons that we never learn.
But life does go on, doesn't it?
No matter where you live in the world, whether it be the Green
Fields of Langley, or the Brown Snow of Alberta, remember this:
you eat from your own garden.
