Namaste & Welcome

deZengo is about the "Art of Beautiful Living." Finding beauty in the strangest places and oddest objects. Being open to the most important discovery of our life--SELF DISCOVERY. It is my hope that as we heal our own pains, angers, fears, regrets...we can begin to heal the world.

As we continue to work independently and interdependently something wonderful takes place. Unity! Creation through collaboration. Life is not meant to be lived through the blinders of fear - step out of your comfort zone and into the NamaZone. Truly we care and our efforts to unite different cultures, backgrounds, genres, and yoga styles together is an enormous undertaking, but someone had to do it. We seek to create bridges between the different practices for those who seek truth and live love.

Pull up a cyber chair, sip some tea and enjoy a relaxing afternoon with Bonsai Yoga at their online hub or hang around here with the deZengo folks. We double down dog dare you!

Vanilla Oil: Solutions & Issues

The "good old boy" conventional vanilla oil buyers and their companies do not care for the ancient techniques, because time is money for them. For example, they buy average to low quality beans, mix them and percolate with alcohol to make vanilla extract in only one week. The traditional maceration, on the other hand, with alcohol takes over 3 months (up to a year is best) to produce aged vanilla extract. This can be done at home with a good vodka and cured quality beans placed in a warm place and shaken daily. Vanilla sugar used by our grandmothers can be made by chopping up 3 beans in one cm. pieces and placing in your sugar bowl. Keeping the beans covered continually with sugar will "sweeten" the sugar with vanilla aroma for years on end. 
The Massage Masters in the Namayoga circles are very clear about the right oils to rub into your body and have selected the best supplies to work with, and have also dedicated their practice to the Analog Foresty Movement!

To share in the process of making oils, to learn more about oils and how a truly green massage practice take all of these things into consideration, stay in contact, leave comments to let other people who find these blogs know that we are on the right track!

Get involved! Join the ladies for more sharing and medium/modality development....

News threads in Namasteelo 911 truth forums relate mostly to 
the paradigm shift that occurs with understanding information. 
That in formation in this case is analytical in nature relating to t

results that are meaningful in protection of our lives, our property,

The OFFICIAL story of the events of 9/11


http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/WorldTradeCenter911

Dot com message boards have aspects similar to private property 
and owners believe that free speech does not exist on their 
message boards. They are placing freedom of commercial
enterprise over the publics need to easily communicate and 
share information that is needed to preserve the republic and 
the democracy and believe that such use is Constitutionally protected. 
The undersigned understand that the Constitution would not protect 
an environment of speech that could not be used to protect the Constitution 
when there is no other easily and freely available to discuss issues honestly 
and openly on the scale needed and therefore make this 
request on that point of principle.

Namasteelo is Currently Bangin.....

WHAT IS EVERYONE CURRENTLY LISTENING TO---
WHAT'S IN YOUR WALKMAN, CAR STEREO, IPOD, CLOCK RADIO, 
ON YOUR TABLES, OR IN YOUR LAPTOP???

-

YAH SUPREME - "FULL CIRCLE" SINGLE

COMMON - "6 MINUTES TO SUNRISE" SINGLE

MR LIF - "SLEEPYHEADS" EP

PUBLIC ENEMY - "FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET"

GIL SCOTT HERON - "FREE WILL"

Deepthinka - "Label Mix Cd"

Dj Dday One - "Wait No More featuring Grand Puba"

Let us know what you are listening to over at the label guest book, 
or anywhere you can leave a comment that may help promote 
the artists & Culture......

But our guest book is a special place to do it, cuz its a 
kind of yoga practice & subculture bridging project.....

Part of the great solution

Namaspirit said, "we will lift from your hand like an eagle "...

You said, "It will be my love that opens your wings....

We said, "totally humble like a dolphin, we swim

all around by your feet"....

Hafiz said, "such glory for you"...

Music lovers in their brief delight gamble both worlds away…..

A centuries worth of work for one chance

to surrender, one chance to listen, one chance to share it.

Many slow growth stages build to quick bursts of blossom

1000 half-loves must be forsaken to take

one whole heart home..... to get one true

momentum of moving minds to happen.

In a dance with higher purpose - interdependently

and in unity, it will.

Raising sunlight on the inner-wall, love moves

toward humanity - the light changes as we unify,

grows warmer, stronger. More loving…

We need more grace than we thought to reverse &

calm this world situation, but grace is here.

How will you know the difficulties of being an artist,

if you cannot share their work for even one day or one hour?

Nature is a huge artistic process like whale-births

(now a time of endangered songs and unemployed dolphin)

We are here only to have our tongues ripped out in a

lustful bite of corporate killer-whale pleasure-seeking....

leaving the rest to worms....

The return journey should start while we are in the body! There is a
long migration home going on within the universe and we must be
careful –

most of our species are beaching themselves in a chaotic

miscommunication about the ocean of samsara.

Govt. disinfo is like toxic dumps across the planet.

The artists are not trying to be teachers who educate

unkind minds in efforts of pointing to beauty! They ARE beauty.

And still we can say, often there is more happening

than even the artists themselves are aware of.

This happening is constant creativity and part of our great solution.

Take one step towards that great solution with us.

Step into unity via tea, listen to some music, share some yoga

as prayer, and pick up some pottery or a weaver to uplift your guests,

your family, yourself, your-nonself, us.......

Connect, get involved, awaken and truth process

before we all become dust.

Athens hit by new protest rallies

Athens hit by new protest rallies 
Stop through the Break for news forum to see the video...
And we also invite you to share your feelings with us too, leave a comment about it, 
share your feeling with us at the 100th monkey project.

One writer put it this way, "The media, greek as 
well as international, reflecting i think the general 
feeling of "orderly" people worldwide, 
are under a state of shock. 

Especially the greek media change their "line" daily, 
sometimes even within a few minutes, 
trying to come up with a familiar, reassuring 
discourse, that would provide a feeling of 
safety in the face of events that 
they cannot understand and scare them 
to death. They try to fit what's 
happening in schemes they know 
(or think they know) and feel that they 
can control. But still, the "society of the orderly" 
was shocked last Monday 
when they saw thousands of organized 
pupils attacking police stations all 
over Greece. Where can one 
catalogue these images?"


Hundreds of people are staging fresh protest rallies in Athens, after 
days of rioting sparked by the killing of a teenager by police in Greece

Sixty per cent of those questioned by Greece's Kathimerini newspaper 
rejected the assertion that the disturbances have been merely a series of 
co-ordinated attacks by a small hard core of anarchists. 

Another poll, in the Ethnos newspaper, suggested that 83% of Greeks 
were unhappy with the government's response to the violence. 
Kathimerini put the disapproval rating at 68%.

Nama-International Drezengo

Create the fun!

We have a new bridging effort going on with people across the globe...


What keeps people from getting involved in good things?

We think its the collective human mind. What is that? 
We looked for a clue, cuz we know its not you! Right?

What could stop you from joy, and connection and sharing in meaningful ways?

Here is what a we dug up about collective mind. Its just a start, and we have a 
100th monkey research effort and book hunt going on to find more info. 
Share what you can, what you know or heard.

Indraneel Sen posted this message to: Yoga

Anastacia mentioned about toxic emotions. Some more on
this.

If a cup is cleansed with water and soap it is clean.
If it is used to drink a good tea the tea slowly
infuses into the cup and gives the cup a character
after some use. Another example is a flute or a violin
that matures and ages as it is played more and more by
a master musician.

The mind creates thoughts. What is the thought made out
of !

A thought is made out of vitality and is as real as a
physical action. The junction of the thought and the
body is an emotion. A thought that is in conflict to
the perfectness of the body creates what is called a
negative emotion. The vital energy carried by that
thought creates conflict with the body and the body
generates toxins to counterbalance the negative
thought. We call this "Poison killing Poison".

The poison thus generated by the body can be flushed
out by the lungs, kidneys and sweat glands. We
generally call that detoxification.

The poison created by the mind can be cleansed by
observing the mind. The trick is to recognize the
truth right away that it is not an individual mind but
the collective human mind that is out of balance. Thus
there is no one (including yourself) to blame. Once
mind is watched it gradually quietens and an
intelligence arises. This intelligence does not create
toxic thoughts.

This is the end of all detoxification.


Yo! Analog Forestry

Hello world, hey young world the world is yours!

Today I'd like to say that Namasteezy & friends are grateful, we are 
grateful for the new team on the scene. we are stoked and grateful
about Analog Forestry. Its time for the yoga community to go 
next level, we see that you need to awaken to this, and 
help spread the word. 

Grateful
Everyday is a blessing, and in each moment there are many things that we can be grateful for. 
The world opens up to us when we live in a space of gratitude. In essence, gratitude has a 
snowball effect. When we are appreciative and express that 
gratitude, the universe glows a bit brighter and showers us with even more blessings.

There is always something to be grateful for, even when life seems hard. 
When times are tough, whether we are having a bad day or stuck in what may 
feel like an endless rut, it can be difficult to take the time to feel grateful. Yet, 
that is when gratitude can be most important. If we can look at our lives, 
during periods of challenge, and find something to be grateful for, then we 
can transform our realities in an instant. There are blessings to be found everywhere. 
When we are focusing on what is negative, our abundance can be easy to miss. Instead, 
choosing to find what already exists in our lives that we can appreciate can 
change what we see in our world. We start to notice one blessing, and then another.

When we constantly choose to be grateful, we notice that every breath is a miracle
and each smile becomes a gift. We begin to understand that difficulties are 
also invaluable lessons. The sun is always shining for us when we are grateful, 
even if it is hidden behind clouds on a rainy day. A simple sandwich becomes a feast, 
and a trinket is transformed into a treasure. Living in a state of gratitude allows us to 
spread our abundance because that is the energy that we emanate from our beings. 
Because the world reflects back to us what we embody, the additional blessings that 
inevitably flow our way give us even more to be grateful for. The universe 
wants to shower us with blessings. The more we appreciate life, the more life 
appreciates and bestows us with more goodness. to appreciate life, we need to 
awaken to Analog Forestry and the community doing the most for the planet. 
Doing the most for the planet is doing the most for you, so lets all be healthy 
and happy and see how we are interconnected...... To each other 
and the planet. Maybe we can get some ongoing discussions going? 
Tea Anyone?

Analog Forestry is a land management system that entails significant
restrictions on the use of fertilizers and pesticides, which may have a
detrimental effect on the environment or result in the transmission of
residues or toxic secondary products to agricultural products. It also
requires the practitioner to encourage non-crop biodiversity and to design
the cropping system in a manner analogous to the mature, native
ecosystem.

The consequence of the practice of Analog Forestry is the establishment
of a Forest Garden. Grown with adherence to structural and functional
design; the products of which are termed Forest Garden Products (FGPs)
for the purposes of this standard.

A standard for FGPs differs from standards of other forestry produces in
that the design as well as production procedures are an intrinsic part of
the identification, labelling of, and claims for, such products.

The standard provides a framework for the industry covering production,
labeling and inspection and aims to encourage biodiversity friendly
silviculture by protecting consumers and ensuring conditions of fair
competition between producers of products so labeled.
 
The standard will provide a more distinctive market profile by ensuring
transparency at all stages of production and processing. Thereby
improving the credibility of these products in the eyes of consumers.

This standard will ensure that all workers in the production process are
treated fairly and obtain a benefit by participating in maintaining these
standards.

NamaRadio Coming Soon!

What happens when you mix yoga studios with artists & musicians? You get conscious truth seeking talent that has taken the first steps toward inner healing and self empowerment. In the process, LOVE has been created and as we know LOVE is a verb and requires action! So, with our creative intent & actions we are here to share the voice and sounds of the people with the PEOPLE. Our music is from the heart, but it speaks to the soul. Come join us and let's learn together how to bridge differences and create the world that we wish to see.

The Next Level :: View topic - The People Versus Corporate Scientology

TWO scientology videos disappeared!!!!
http://breakfornews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3924
There is an internet phenomenon which could 
very well be the first major 
mass case of the People using the communications 
power of the Internet 
to take on ruthless corporate power. For that is 
precisely what Scientology 
represents, stripped of all it's 
pretense of religion. 

It's a story which is inextricably 
bound up with Tom Cruise. 

Cruise is effectively the #2 in Scientology, 
and his demise is closely 
bound to the downfall of Scientology. It all 
started here with Cruise on 
Oprah talking about love at first publicity.... 

You are invited to a Tea & Fire dance discussion

How can we come together to create more 
opportunities to share our love for tea and fire?

Do you think people are open to bridging and 
exploring or are they closed off and afraid?

Why is it so hard to find handcrafted 
pottery in yoga studios?

Lets plan to get online at the same time, 
to develop research and ideas that serve our happenings.

Marshall, Music & the global village

There was a great report on www.kpfa.org yesterday mid day,
titled "Against the Grain" on media networking which you
would probably enjoy because it depicts a new social movement, 
one that Marshall McKluhen predicted in the late 60s.

Jeffrey Juris argues that network-based technologies have influenced the 
logic and values of radical social movements. And Dorothy Kidd 
describes the global movement to democratize communications.

Check out Marshall had to say, and share the truth process
with Namasteezy Records if you are feeling the views.... 
The Label shares art and projects that uplift & heal, 
all mediums are shared AS the message and were 
created in the inspiration of what Marshall pointed 
out could be done about the global situation.

In the early 1960s, McLuhan wrote that the visual, individualistic print 
culture would soon be brought to an end by what he called 
"electronic interdependence": when electronic media replace 
visual culture with aural/oral culture. In this new age, humankind 
will move from individualism and fragmentation to a collective identity, 
with a "tribal base." McLuhan's coinage for this new social organization
 is the global village, a term which has predominantly negative 
connotations in The Gutenberg Galaxy (a fact lost on its later popularizers):
Instead of tending towards a vast Alexandrian library the world has become 
a computer, an electronic brain, exactly as an infantile piece of science fiction. 
And as our senses have gone outside us, Big Brother goes inside. 
Ikat has been created all around the world, most notably 
Guatemala, where its beautiful 
bright ikat textiles are famous. 
Before being woven, the yarn is tied in 
specific spots to resist dye. 
The resists can be random, 
or most frequently, like Peruvian textiles, 
tied in specific ways to create designs. 
These designs can be anything from camels 
to people to tanks like in modern Afghan rugs. 
There is a huge tradition of ikat throughout the 
world, and it had changed as the dyes have 
gone from natural to chemical. But Namaspirit Artists 
are working hard to keep alive the dying art forms 
as well as natural dye use....
Please take an interest in these Namaspirit efforts; 
spread the word about the art and our artists efforts to reach you! 
From Hip Hop that speaks in terms of pottery, 
to yoga that teaches in terms of Saki-Ori 
Namaspirit shares techniques and art 
that incorporates recycling as its main emphasis. 

Against the Grain with mediums as a message?

Jeffrey Juris argues that network-based technologies have influenced the 
logic and values of radical social movements. 
And Dorothy Kidd describes the 
global movement to democratize communications.

Bird call to caring Tribes: Got Unity?

Globally, 1,217 species of birds, or about 12 percent of the total of 9,956 
described bird species, were deemed endangered or vulnerable to extinction 
by IUCN's 2007 Red List. In the United States, about 74 of 847 bird species 
are at risk, about nine percent of the total.

How can we work together, putting our art and music into action 
when people have been so conditioned away from unity, art and action?

Bird tribes is a great start.... Its a willingness. I dedicated my yoga to the 
birds today, exploring positions as if I was flying.. It was really healing and helpful....


Today I started seeing God in All beings, and special blessings in the caring for:
