Page 107 - Dark Matter Women Witnessing

One of Kaiya’s first and most important teachings was about spiritual awareness in a physical

body. After one particularly intense day in the water with her, I was in my cabin on the boat

resting, when she gave me a strong and clear telepathic message: “Come with me.” She

invited me to shift my awareness, much in the way I’d learned to do as a child, and enter her

body, perceiving through her perspective and consciousness. As I did this, I felt her great

physical sensitivity, her awareness of the water, the earth beneath the ocean floor, her

connection to not only her immediate physical family and podmates, but others of her kind all

throughout the seas. I felt “my” cellular structure expanding, stretching out, touching the water

around me, the earth beneath me, and sinking deep into the ocean floor, through the center of

the earth, and out the other side into the cosmos.

Kaiya taught me how to connect to the earth and the universe beyond through my belly and

my breath, and how to feel the meridians and magnetic grid of the earth through my skin, my

cells, my breath, my own physical body. I learned that for the whales, there is no separation

between physical form and pure awareness...they are one and the same, and their physical

lives are never disconnected from this universal awareness.

As I learned to work with my breath through the example of the whales’ conscious breath, I

discovered how to drop my awareness down into the earth, to open through the perceived

edges of my physical form into something vast, deep, and universal. In doing this, I

discovered gateways in my own being that opened into other dimensions, other realities, and

ultimately into a numinous place of universal awareness.
