Open to sky open to earth
when its (two) meet together, it can be infinitely a living radiation
like the sleeping-number 8
infinitely all directions
Marga = way
Pura = Temple
The way to the temple, a way to a temple, my way to my own inner temple, may all find their way to their temple of eternal present.
oOMm Awignam astu nama siddhi buddhi buddhayam.
May all be in honorable way of health of the 3 worlds of human essential elements, in the way of magic power of survival, to serve a creative harmonious commune creation, for celebration in natural harmony. Open to the sky, open to the earth, way from ancestor to earth is a life time cultivation, a life time agriculture in this very dearest field that we carry in our body. This body of human, animal, vegetal, mineral contain energy, energy can become spirit, spirit animated matter. What the matter?! Is it matter or not. It doesn't matter. Yes it is a matter of fact, of real "thing", mysteriously the word already play in us, that we pretend to articulate word, mastering word that borrow a way through your brain to be pro-nounced by mouth, your mouth as if my mouth, the mouth of word's spirit, word's atomic energy is a chain reaction with unlimited link....if our awareness, knowledge, consciousness is also unlimited.
Opening a way together and walk in together, opening a field and work together, what grain to cultivate? One's own grain, that what one carry. Two grain meet and married and produced. There are grain that can not produced whet they meet together. Then possibility is limitless: war, discussion, concert, dance and sing together....let put a word / a name on this happening: "celebration".
Ah sorry please don't go to celebrity. Let the word celebration be offered for a temple, here I offer you a piece of my Balinese tradition, as I try to remember temple celebration Hindu Bali Animist temple of my ancestor temple, pura Penambangan Badung, Puri Pemecutan, Denpasar Bali. Please klick here to see video PEMELASPAS ALIT CANDI IBU of ceremony /celebration of my ancestor temple in Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia; (IBU=mother). In this video, made by Made Wijaya (Michael White, Australian garden designer settle in Bali) and he is doing comment too.
A ceremony, a celebration in Bali contain: offering made in a beautiful symbolic way with natural element but now nature has grows to artificial, music, movement/dance, trance, sacred text (mantra, pray), clean-sacred dress so it look beautiful for human eyes, even statue is being dressed, that will awaken in us an interpretation: actors, creative actor of life awaken spirit that sleep in "dead matter" /(dead body). After the ceremony, you see the King speak giving "his essence of reflection". He speak high Balinese and Indonesia, the essence what he says (I translate some of them), the King said: "You may take anything you want, you may eat what you want with mouth, eyes, ears, perceive with five senses all around you and please do take care not consider/take a peanut that you see far away as a mountain" He is the actual King now in palace Pemecutan with name: IDA COKORDA PEMECUTAN XI / A.A. NGURAH MANIK PARASARA, SH.
He was in the same classe with me in elementary school in the 1950's at Pemecutan Denpasar Bali Indonesia. Now I realize that memory is need to be updated in other to joint, to link with life correctly.
He speak also about celebration with OGOH OGOH for NYEPI, Balinese New Year, Year Caka, NYEPI (in silence). 5 march 2011 = 1933 Balinese year Caka. In that celebration, there are preliminary celebration with ogoh ogoh, all possible manifestation of your inner "demon" in statue to be carried in precession. Modern eyes see may be a giant nude human statue with erected sex organ as pornography, terrible face of a demoniac expression, figure from Mahabharata or Ramayana, and other dirty image is allowed to be manifested and celebrated that day. Awaken good interpretation in mind! For the next day will be "silence". Silence will link with immobility, no activity, and for that day little island of Bali no car traffic in the street, no fire being lit, so no cooking, food is prepared the day before. Further information about Nyepi is here, to klick.
So to celebrate Nyepi in Bali, to be in silence and immobile on physical movement, like in Japanese ZA ZEN. This habit, this tradition tell us to start a creation, is being prepared with, cleaning, purification so let all the dirty bad things from inner flow out. Passing your life time in pose, no action yet in action, that is the mystery of departing a creative process.
So to joint this Marga Pura, what do we need to prepare before coming and be in the way , just for 3 days. The deeper you prepare before day of "work-share" (instead of "workshop", to prevent the mind doing shopping and go away, its done), the deeper you will gain the fruits of your work that can last longer, awaken divine(scientific) intelligent and it can transform you, your daily action, habit, character, destiny. So here we see the path of our logic way, in mind way, that destiny must start from a right spirit, right mind, right thought, ...rolls and flows to action, habit, character, destiny. It is along way, one life is not enough.
immobility in silence is all.
so
make it so
and LET US make it ssSSOooo.
The silence and the immobility of a river is flowing. The bridge flow, the river stagnate/stop.
Retreat Tribuana in the way of Marga Pura (way to one own temple) is a work on your way of life, your own characteristic expression, way to your own nature to express in words/ in mind, in energy of life/emotion, in movement/body.

- thought/words/text.
Expressivity can be in words, design, picture, object composition, percussion, rhythm, games, work with object, .... etc.
Tribuana propose 27 fields to explore, it can be theatrical or just normal life expression.

In movement, it can be done with or without music;
The first period, first third time of workshop ill be working on preparation to know others a bit, to know the menu of the work to do,. The goal for this first third period of time is to be at ease with others, the space and time table to be programmed together, the chosen 27 Tribuana fields.

Any difficulties you encounter during the work, Tapa Sudana as a "guide and servant" will be with you. But don't take my words as it is as a dead hint, words is growing when it is spread, especially in spring time with the spirit of resurrection. ! !!!
Ritual is daily meal.
Introduction into "to be in vegetal way of behavior".
It is important also to consider the food we eat. Being vegetarian for the period of retreat, even start few days, few moths, few ... before.
In the awareness of the food and energy and mind to be consumed, will lead us to a style of vegetal life. What does it means, What is the realization of this vegetal way of life?
Tree will inspired and teach us.
We will have many time to speak and explore it together. The magic of food, the magic of sound, the magic of words, the magic of images enter through eyes ........ sound into ears stereo listening and see twice from in and out, to speak at least once by one mouth.
Speak to a person human with language, "speak" to animal, to tree, to object (then object become living spirit) merit to be treated as .... ? ???
Tapa try to accompany you as far as you open yourself in work, in expression to share a possible solution of what you find as difficulties.
Tapa is not offering you a guaranty in solving problem, we try to find it together step by step; there are work on parameter to find, for a possible solution;
Please do see Master and student consideration Tribuana.
To understand what is "that" or "thing" or "some one":
- examining the means, the instrument
- how does it work.
- what is the aim
- what is the criteria of right or wrong, good or bad, satisfaction references.
How to continue the work after the workshop?
Yes that is to find out during the workshop. What you wish to continue, ask Tapa how to develop it alone. Anyway, there will be a continuity of link in mail, skype (my skype name: tapasudana from Montreuil), or any other internet chat possible. Tapa is open till post time workshop / work-share;
A questionnaire Tribuana will help to prepare better running of the work, of your personal work that you want to explore during the retreat Marga Pura. So do send your quest to organizer and to me directly. In the quest Tribuana there are :
- expression of your wish, what you want to be in the future, ideally; important to express even if you think that you may not get it in future reality, but worth to honor in mind, in your imagination.
- Your present activities, work, daily important work, determinant element.
- Your past, as much as you open to "the tribuana quest", is your mirror of opening to others, that will be the mirror of what you will gain: openness = entrance. Knowing more/less, gaining more/less.
Judging is not what we deal with, during the retreat; All established value is being in question, being interrogated, to be adjusted. Do take care, whoever hold on preference will stuck in their way or in their spot. Spot >>> stop.
Pondering, wondering, wandering, yes. Doing and experimenting is the action, the work to do. Sharing is a direction and important aim to consider in action. Sharing is like making music together in a joy of celebration, celebration to enjoy;
Ritual is doing "exercise, action regularly, daily with the a sense of sacred, deal with spirit of "thing" you do.
