Sensual Immersion—Peering, Sitting in Silence and Creative Imagining

The Earthfolk analysis, evaluation and interpretation of the creative vision and range of heartfelt actions imagined by a Big Story are grounded in the practice of sensual immersion. This is a creatively imaginative discipline wherein Big Story information gathered from the five senses is immersed in the deeply embedded personal emotions experienced by the individual Seer as he opens to the melding and melting of mind with heart through the stimulation and activation of every distinct human sense.

A Big Story's narrative is read and heard. Its rituals enacted and/or participated in. Songs are sung.
Bells rung. Honored pennons saluted. Icons respected. Incense smelled.
Meditation. Contemplation. Exhortations. Dancing and required movements.
Its special food is consumed: eaten, drunk or absorbed by the skin.
In all, sacred and profane elements are equally valued.

Note:   It is critical for you to understand the practice of sensual immersion. It describes how we Earthfolk came to both our breakdown and breakthrough moments with the three Big Stories. More importantly, you are challenged to practice sensual immersion when you explore (analyze, evaluate, criticize, interpret, etc.) our Earthfolk Big Story. While you might come to reject the Earthfolk Big Story, an honest and sincere exploration requires sensual immersion.

At the least, you need to walk Pathways A & C. Our vision is of the mind and the heart, so we challenge you to engage in a heartfelt ritual or two.

Consider sensual immersion through the Ritual of Skin.
