Like many others, I have been stuffy & itchy-eyed here, and quite especially today. I think perhaps it is from the last of the autumn pollen anticipating this feeling of a rain that is probably not coming. It hurts my back and lower abs to cough - ugh.
But, I made simple and tasty broth/soup last night and today that both eases the hayfever symptoms greatly as well as brings a cozy self-centering comfort.
Ingredients and directions are as follows:
* 3 cups water near boil then turn off then add:
* 1/2 cup dried seaweed like wakame or arame
* 4 large cloves fresh crushed garlic
* 2 teaspoons fresh crushed/squeezed ginger + juices
* 1 tablespoon good organic soy sauce (tamari or nama shoyu)
* Few dashes of cayenne pepper (1/2 teaspoon if low heat pepper like 30,000)
* 2 teaspoons olive oil
Serve in a rustic, wheel-thrown ceramic mug that fits cozily in your hands.
With the massive amount of chemtrail spraying lately, it is good to consume lots of cayenne or other hot peppers to keep mucosa production going as your first line of defense...

UPS came and hauled-off the 14 boxes, including my bicycle and gear broken-down into the two 50-pound suitcases. Now counting-down 30 hours until I fly out of here to Fort Smith, Arkansas. Super-boosting my health and immunity for the trip, I have been on triple juice duty using the sixty dollars worth of great bulk produce I got at Wild Thyme Whole Food Market the other on Friday.
Here is a little window on today's juice and other raw culinary delights.

Here is a little window on today's juice and other raw culinary delights.
At the grocery today after a pleasant hike in the local nature preserve with my roomate Tito, I spied some dried, locally harvested, wild tripe fungi (Auricularia mesenterica) in the mushroom section. Excitedly I brought them home and re-hydrated them for a late lunch. Mmmmm what an incredibly wild taste and texture. This, indeed was a treat. The mushrooms were recently dried and they reconstituted nicely soaking in warm water for about 20 minutes. By the time I made the sauce and cleaned everything-up, they were ready.
Today's Juice
Today's 3-meal juice: apple, kale, cilantro, beet, carrot, cucumber, fennel, and ginger. All organically grown of course, and I soaked the ingredients in fresh cold water for 2 hours before juicing.
In the Bowl
In the bowl is the wild tripe (Auricularia mesenterica) mushroom, splashed with organic namashoyu tamari, topped with sweet pea sprouts, a teaspoon of turmeric-habanero sauce, chopped cilantro, local bee pollen.On the Side

Served on the side of the plate is half a ripe avocado with a dash of ume plum vinegar and a little fresh ground black pepper. I also placed one gorgeous wild tripe mushroom (Auricularia mesenterica) specimen there for you to have a clearer look. This all just turned-out to be a smashing taste and texture sensation, enjoyed with slow and reverent chewing.
The sauce was prepared at high-speed in a regular blender using:
1) quarter-cup of olive oil
2) two fine red habanero peppers
3) bit of ginger
4) four large cloves garlic
5) tablespoon of umeboshi plum vinegar
6) tablespoon of fresh powdered turmeric
7) teaspoon of local honey (sweeten to taste)
8) quarter-cup near boiling water
* I only drizzled one teaspoon piquant sauce on the tripe dish.
Health and Natural Medicine
Health and Natural Medicine
Everything I have been reading on how to best defend yourself against airborn chemtrail fallout and other particulate/pathogenic sources, include the daily consumption of hot pepper to keep the mucous production up, your first line of internal defense against unwanted inhalants. The mucous is your body's way of saying "Let's get this stuff out before it gets in any deeper!" Stay well hydrated with natural spring water from its natural source.
Capsicum from hot peppers as well as turmeric are proven natural cancer remedies. Additionally, in my bit of research on the tripe fungi I discovered that the UK has long recognized the Auricularia mesenterica, tripe mushroom species as a cancer-curing food.

Article written by Jahrun Chilam Balam 2010.04.16
Plants and fungi contain unique signatures that affect and influence our bioelectrochemical organism. Some species contain keys to opening doors of higher dimensional perception, realms exceeding those 3 or 4 that we are conditioned to limitedly perceive.
Most people are not even truly conscious of 3-dimensional space, wherein which we can experience creative opportunity, in other words, the forth dimension. The realm of infinite creative potential is also greatly misconstrued by nearly everyone through years of early dogmatic training as being nothing more than "linear time". Do you remember this hypnopedic brainwashing?
So... do you even know what the names of the Gregorian (i.e. the patriarchal post Roman Empire Catholic Church) months mean? Do you know what the names of the seven days in your week signify? Why are there 24 hours in a day? 60 minutes in an hour? 60 seconds in a minute? 60 alternating electric cycles per second in your household electricity?
If you accept and live this model of time, you will not have access to forth dimensional perception, and you will remain asleep, you will continue to be controlled by a mechanistic and false 12:60 frequency harmonic ratio that is designed to keep you out of celestial harmony, and you are as far from nature as your masters intend, even if you're juicing twice a day. Did you ever try to remember a song when another song is blaring on the radio? Being out of celestial harmony puts you out of touch with your shaman. To feel natural time, you must unplug and get away from the noise, lose track of the Gregorian day of the week and the Gregorian month of the year. Do women naturally menstruate every 30 or 31 days? Do you know that the moon orbits the Earth in just over 28 days and so it orbits the earth 13 times in one solar year? Did it ever occur to you that the word "month" is really meant to be "moonth"?
According to the ancient Maya, the primary frequency harmonic to feel in order to "be in the now" and expand your dimensional perception is 13:20. Your sense-numbing Gregorian conditioning to 12:60 keeps you a slave who is sick and compliant. To reach full experience of the fourth dimension, you must let go of your current concept of patriarchally mechanized time.

"Thirty days has September, April, June and November... all the rest have thirty-one except for February which has twenty-eight and sometimes twenty-nine."Do you remember sitting in elementary school and feeling that this was just wrong? I know I did. Do you remember staring at the world map hanging up front on the blackboard and thinking to yourself that it looked like the continent pieces should fit together? I know I did. Were you taught that the whole Earth is an organism? I know I wasn't. It was not even in dimensional perception of our "teachers" to think this way, let alone show us how to use our chi, or to heal or to grow.

"Man is like a clock with a face showing twelve o'clock, but which strikes the time of six. A mechanical clock cannot see its contradiction, and neither can man see his self-division while living from mechanical thought. A clock cannot heal its self-contradiction, but man can do so by conscious thought."Most people will have a very difficult ride on the way to this Singularity.

Psychoactive plants mentioned in this film:
~ Sat nam.
"I use my mind as analchemical vessel for carrying out observations on the union of spirit - my spirit, my personality and matter, the physical matter of the substance I am ingesting. Nothing in human experience is as much like The Singularity as a psychedelic experience. In a way it's a microcosmic anticipation of this macrocosmic event in history. When we take psychedelics, we undergo a mini apocolypse, a mini revelation, and it positions us then for these larger events in the historical timespan."
The Internet is only a set of training wheels. There are natural inter-nets, natural neural network systems that already provide the dimensional fabric for knowing, listening and speaking. Personally, I do not agree with the narrator's opening statement about preparing for a future life uploaded in computers. Mckenna never alludes to this trajectory. Though I, myself, have done a lot of work intentionally in this direction (with the Immortal Host project and even this BLOG as examples). I can let this go. It is only what I have to offer to you the reader to assist you in knowing other possibilities. Within the next three years, I plan on creating a more feral and shamanic "lifestyle", unplugging from computers and the Internet.

Article and compilations by Jahrun Chilam Balam 2010.04.15
Over the last several years, I have awakened to the miracle of water and have been boisterous in sharing my understandings all along. Two nights ago, I was gifted with a real "treat" that has been downloaded into my cerebral cortex computer.
The Natural News daily news letter has been synchronic and instrumental in connecting me with the tools I have needed to raft the whitewater challenges and transitions that have been ongoing in my life these last three years. In less than one minute, you too can connect with the Natural News daily newsletter, and if nothing else, something will catch your eye from time to time that will help you and others you know. Why don't you do that now and then come back to this article?
Without further delay, now I will share this "treat" as part of a compilation of profound highlights to contemplate regarding water. The treat includes a podcast audio interview with Daniel Vitalis by host Mike Adams. After listening intently to this program, I was compelled to learn more about Daniel. I found a series of videos that I list below as "Must Experience".
Those of you who know me, know that many of these things I have already been speaking of these last years. But Daniel Vitalis has presented the concepts in a way that has congealed and permanently affected me. I am fortified, encouraged and committed to my migration toward a feral life.

Nestled in the spice and herb cabinet here in the house I am staying are mysterious relic jars and containers left behind by previous tenants. Last week I discovered one relatively large glass jar half full of a colorful medley of seeds, and on the lid was written Panch Puran. India leaped out as I opened the lid. The aromas stirred my child's culinary curiosities and excitements. In an instant, a fireworks shower of creative visions appeared of how this fantastic assembly of seeds would become an intimate part of my foodie ways.
Panch Phoron Ingredients:
1 part nigella (Kalonji or black onion) seeds
1 part black mustard seeds
1 part fenugreek seeds
1 part fennel seeds
1 part cumin seeds
Preparation: Combine all spices in a jar, store away from heat and light.
The Epicentre Encyclopedia of Spices describes Panch Phoron as follows:
The distinct aroma of Bengali cuisine is mostly due to the blend of spices known as panch phoron, or perhaps some other variation on this name (see below). Panch means "five" and phoron is "flavour" or "spice", hence the common translation Bengali Five-Spice". Panch phoron is a colourful blend of flavourful seeds: the green of fennel seed, black mustard seeds, nigella seeds, golden fenugreek seeds and buff-coloured cumin seeds. Some variations may substitute anise for the fennel seeds or wild mustard for cumin, radhuni seed for mustard, and possibly black cumin for nigella. Generally the ingredients are added in equal proportions, though this can vary according to taste.
Panch phoron is usually fried in oil or ghee before adding anything else to the pot, flavouring the oil and releasing the aroma of the oils in the seeds and causing them to pop in the pan. Other ingredients are added at this point, the mixture adding sweetness and bringing forward the flavours of vegetables, fish or lentils.Raw Cuisine Ideas
There are many recipies out there on the Internet that use this seed mix in the traditional way of quick frying them in oil in a hot wok. However good this may taste, it does not appeal to my increasing shift to eating raw foods. In fact, I believe that the traditional way of frying these seeds until they pop is a sure way to destroy the nutritive and medicinal values. Worse yet, as with any food, subjecting these seeds to a high heat will certainly transmute otherwise healthy substances into nasty carcinogens - i.e. cancer causing substances. Notice below in the Ponch Phoran and Health section the mention of omega-6 and volatile oils... Do you really want to over-heat these and destroy their molecular form, and hence their benefits?
Now I want to take a moment to emphasize that being a raw foodist does not mean that all your food must be cold! Throughout my postings, I will re-emphasize this point over and over to encourage people who are considering becoming vegan raw foodists, so that they are not discouraged by thinking everything "raw" must be served cold. This just simply is not the case.
As a raw foodist, I have discovered that it is relatively simple to achieve a more potent use of spices and herbs simply through grinding and pulverizing them just before adding them to a dish. Using a $20 Krups Fast Touch pulverizing grinder, one that you dedicate for seeds, grains, herbs and spices, does a great job. The added technique of rapidly pulsing and gently shaking the grinder will result in a fluffy and evenly ground mixture. With a little practice, you will intuitively produce mixtures as course or fine as you wish. Let me continue by sharing some of my applications over the last several days.Imagine using your grinder to pulverize some panch phoron seed mix along with raw sesame seeds, flax seeds, and coarse celtic sea salt. Put the mixture in a little sauce pan and add a little water, raw unrefined organic oil, maybe some umeboshi plum vinegar and then briefly warm the mixture to be no hotter than 104 Fahrenheit (40 Celsius)... warm to the touch... still raw. Yet you still get the benefit of encouraging the release of the nutritive medicines from the seeds into the liquid through a slow, gentle and short-lived heat.
This tasty nutritive sauce can now be added to your raw soup, or ladled over finely slivered raw veggies or salads, sprouts, sprouted grains, beans or quinoa, or even fresh slices of tropical fruit, like a ripe mango! Also, if you're like me, you do embark on some cooked foods as a base from time to time like organic whole-grain rice or organic pasta made from rice, artichoke or buckwheat, or some other low gluten seed or grain. Top your cooked grain or pasta with a sauce, and sprinkle a bit of freshly powdered panch phoron on top.
I have been increasingly enjoying experiments with curries, masalas, and am now delighted to have discovered yet another treat from the East India, Bangladesh region of ancient medicinal and culinary wisdom.
Panch Phoran and Health
The five types of spices used in panch phoran have significant health benefits too.
Cumin Seeds:
- Cumin seeds have a beneficial effect on the digestive system.
- Research in animals has indicated that cumin may stimulate the secretion of pancreatic enzymes, important factors in proper digestion and nutrient assimilation. As with other carminative spices, cumin's digestive stimulating effects are due to its volatile oils.
- Cumin seeds may also have anticancer properties.
- Cumin has shown to enhance liver's detoxification enzymes.
- See also: http://www.herbreference.com/cumin.html
- Mustard is a good source of selenium and magnesium. Selenium helps people with asthma and rheumatoid arthritis while magnesium lowers high blood pressure, reduces migraines and also prevents heart attack.
- Mustard seeds are also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids as well as iron, calcium, zinc, manganese, magnesium, protein, niacin and dietary fiber.
- The essential oil Tocopherols present in mustard inhibits growth of certain yeasts, molds, and bacteria, enabling mustard to function as a natural preservative.

- The seeds of the fenugreek plant are known to be great cleansers of the system.
- They are have a beneficial impact on the digestive tract, stomach, respiratory infections, blood sugar and diabetes.
- It also reduces cholesterol.
- Traditional Chinese Medicine recommends fenugreek for treating arthritis and asthma.
- When looking for this, it may be labeled as Methi.
