Lesotho & Wartrail
Another road deeper into our beautiful country, with twists and turns we eventually arrived at the South-Western border between South Africa and Lesotho. Some of the most unspoilt nature and pristine mountain ranges dominate this region along the Southern Drakensberg.
Life is rural here, untouched and immersed in a raw beauty unlike any other part of SA, a recommended stop on the travel list for those looking to experience a difference in their adventure travels.
With an average of 1500m above sea level, reaching a peak of 2161m at its highest point, the folds of the mountains tower over each other in a colossal battle of height domination. Our journey took us into the heart of Wartrail, an area deeply rich in open spaces and remarkable history. Open lands as far as the eye can see, natural water sources and kind hearted souls.
Time has no meaning here, civilization is a distant echo on the mountain side as the age of the surrounding beauty reminds the onlooker that Earth has been around long before us and shall be long after our brief experience of this life.
I shared in a brief encounter with a Basotho shepard, our conversation stradling four languages in order for us to communicate, a mix of Xhosa, Sotho, Afrikaans and English allowed us to engage and discover more about each other.
The shepard was attending his flock, and I was happily shooting away. We discussed matters of images on the camera (with absolute shock and awe), what Port Elizabeth is, his very basic understanding of Afrikaans and where we had come from.
An encounter which I will always remember, a moment that reminded me that the old world is not lost to modernity, life that exists beyond the societal veil is very strong and that we are just brief flickers of light in the greater scheme of things.
We hope you enjoy the production.
As always, thank you for watching.

    The core purpose and intention of the video and subsequent discussion is not to discuss individuals or to impose any personal ideals, findings or wishes on people but to heal/free the brain from the conditioning of thought/time so that the brain is free to function as a whole muscle healthily in the relationship with the consciousness (the immeasurable, uncontainable, the absolute). Healing in the sense that inwardly I have a perception that my brain has been conditioned to a pattern and this pattern prevents the brain from functioning healthily with the consciousness. When the brain is not conditioned the brain and consciousness can function healthily, without barriers, from moment to moment without the interference of thought projecting itself. In this state of functioning (state of mind) order comes about naturally, not the self-imposed order of thought/time that provides the pattern to be orderly. This is not a self-imposed responsibility it’s a responsibility that comes about naturally where the observer is the observed, the thinker is the thought, and the experiencer is the experience, and dualism within the mind has come to an end where love, peace, compassion and joy are a product of intelligence (a product of humanity), not the intelligence of thought/time. Let’s do what has to be done to be that generation to end this perpetuating society of violence and stress (as seen in wars, political and religious control, socio-economic control, and my lack of understanding that thought is always limited and added to from moment to moment, etc.).

    That's the common human nature to being selfish. However, if we look into the opposite point of view, NO you are not!. The nature of the human being is pure. Just sense it, uncover it, discover it in you. It is such a beautiful creation in you. No one can find it for you but only you. You are You! Feel it! Experience it. Just be responsible for your human mind!

      There is a seriousness required by the individual when looking into the consciousness of man (the individual is attentive to the whole of consciousness without a direction - looking without the movement of time (thought)) this differs to concentration where thought is used to perform every day activities outwardly. What prevents direct observation into the consciousness of man? You cannot come to the unknown (the living) through the known (something dead, past) - the known only recognizes that what it knows. Therefore the known is a projection of thought in whatever form or idea. The known being your particular idiosyncrasy, your opinions and conclusions, your beliefs, etc. Where there is no separation between the observer and observed there is direct observation into the consciousness without the movement of the known i.e. learning and experiencing in the present not learning and experiencing in the past through the present into a fanciful state of purity, love and truth in the future. Dualism in the mind implies choice and lack of clarity and certainty of what is. Perception is not personal or something you perceive one day and reinvented the next day - perception is not tinged by thought. In perception thought does not exist, therefore our emotions are not tinged by thought, e.g. killing for a country or a flag, kneeling and saluting things and people, self centeredness, etc.

    With Me... but at the same time I cannot comprehend saying this... it seems extra ordinary though it is obvious that we share this consciousness and one person does not have more of the consciousness than another, its not a commodity... but in society it unfolds very differently with our social structure that is deeply entrenched and upheld by me...

    • @alchemistsoul888
      @alchemistsoul888 10 місяців тому

      Yes indeed! With that being said consciousness has equal quantity to each and everyone of us. However, consciousness has no limit. It's unmeasurable. You cannot define it but you can feel and sense it.

      When people die or are born into this consciousness it does not add or take away from the consciousness, as with air and water. It is there irrelevant of man

    Society as we know and experience it is a reflection of the consciousness of man. Individually we make up the consciousness of man. Individually we are the rest of humanity, we share (not own) this consciousness. It is common to every human being and we born into this consciousness of many years gone by. If the individual is really concerned and therefore serious about ending selfishness, like greed, aggression, etc. where would be the logical, rational and sane place to start?

  • @alfredtewaternaude4702
    @alfredtewaternaude4702 10 місяців тому

    Why is the individual that is born into and shares ( not owns) the consciousness of man, irrelevant of physical appearance and social stature, incapable of looking inwardly without the interference of the outer World?

      The idea that we can put into action. To unite into one because you are me! All the things and sensations you experience or feel, are all the same as me.

      @alfredtewaternaude4702 10 місяців тому

      We share that consciousness that is common to every human being - can the individual have a perception that thought is a limited instrument and always insufficient and has no place in direct perception of what we are...
