SUMMARY= I am getting wrist surgery to take metal out of my right
wrist on October 15... please pray for a smooth surgery and my speedy
wholistic healing! Thanks. Read on if you wish. : )

我在十月十五號動手術，把鐵片拿出我的右手腕。請為我禱告！感恩。

THE WHOLE EMAIL=

Namaste, beautiful dear friend!

Happy full moon, happy autumn, happy Chinese Moon Festival! May the
fullness of the moon tonight reflect the fullness of your life. May
you be healthy and happy in all ways and full enough to... empty your
overflowing bowl. Sit as an empty bowl in trust and prayer that you
will be filled up again, even more lusciously than before.

I am ready to empty my bowl.

Metal in my wrist--- time to take it out, let it go, break myself down
again, nourish and build myself back up even stronger. I learn, we
learn... what?

Surrender.
Surrender.
Surrender.

On October 15, my right wrist is getting cut open again, metal plate
and screws removed from my radius bone with loving fingers and precise
tools: goodbye metal--- hello pure bone, sweet flesh, whole being.
Hello, surrender. Hello, empty bowl. Hello, new life.

The healing process afterwards: dull-looking cocoons contain
hibernating caterpillars dying and rebirthing to one day become
butterflies--- nothing is ever only what we can see. Look below the
waters. Feel beyond the surface. Relax, feel, and surrender. Allow
yourself to be moved. Squint your eyes, blur your vision, and allow
your Visions.

Intention and alignment with Spirit/ Creator are the root and stem of
all magic and healing. Please pray for me on October 15 for my 9 AM
surgery (USA Eastern time is 9 PM on October 14; 7 PM for USA Western
time). Please pray as well, for the moments, days, weeks, and months
afterwards of patient loving healing for full recovery of my right
wrist, as I rest and rebuild myself to radiate as brightly as possible
for the unwritten script of the rest of my life--- as a butterfly.

With all my Heart: Love you. Thank you. Bless you.

Jiling

PS- thanks so much for all your helpful insight regarding whether or
not to take out the metal! I feel very well-informed and supported in
my decision. If you have any suggestions for healing and wholing after
surgery, please share! Thank you SO much with all my heart!

PPS- yeah, I'm back in Taiwan. Doing the surgery and recovering here.
I'm in a great place- as always. Thanks, Universe. Don't know how long
I will stay here. Again, I surrender- and welcome Unknown--- with an
eye and intention out for a Home-home. : )

PPPS- I hope you fully appreciate just how amazing all the tiny parts
of your body are! Look in the mirror and say "Thank you" to your body-
and never take walking, talking, typing, or anything else for granted.
Always give thanks, and live fully embodied completely deliciously. :
) Enjoy!

big bag
empty bowl
open heart

yes, yes, and
yes

what makes you come ALIVE?
go and do that

(photos: 1- roof of old temple near Black Pagoda (烏塔) in Fuzhou, China
(福州). This mandala has infinite stories to tell- look closely, and see
yourself, and the whole Universe, reflected within. 2- I am overjoyed
to return to Taiwan, the gorgeous green island behind me, on the ship
from Fuzhou, China to Jeelong, Taiwan.)

The Fall: 6 years

six years ago

gravity grabbed little crow flying

and crashed her down to make her his own

grinding her into mountain mush, blood and bone stew on stone

she lived

now

yoga teacher rises into headstand

arms shaking in arm balance postures

two hands of uneven pressure

tears of focus and frustration

soon enough

second surgery to remove the metal from the first surgery

then no more surgeries

rest, recovery, deep dreams, solid strengthening

and a burning inner fire

small suns radiating from belly, heart, throat, and head

eyes shining from face, hands, and feet

earth crow singing in the dead of night

take these broken wings and learn to fly

powerful black wings shining forth all the colors of the rainbow

pupate

wake up

cells dancing

on stage of life

poetry manifest

in each breath

creation and destruction

shiva shakti

balance

push pull reach hold

allow surrender

trust

giving more than receiving

living to serve

yours

my dear fellow caterpillars

sink down into the shadow

weave it around you

feel the fear

bask in the musky dark

be the still silent

center

in the middle of the movement

feel your insides

wriggling and twisting

transforming and exploding

painful

pupation

let the magic

shine forth

aching rays

of screaming sunlight

streaming out

wings emerging

exploding

death of an old known

birth of a new unknown known

dear universe of gay great illuminitably everything

nothing

mountains that rise and sink with the rise and fall of my belly and chest

each in and out breath

cells dancing

atoms imploding exploding exploring dances

dreaming within dreams of dreams dreamed

dreamer, who?

dear birds drifting on drafts rising from ancient chasms

soaring cliffs steeply dropping down

roaring waterfalls caressing endless sunsets and moonrises

world of great magic beauty

dear small still silent cocoons hanging old and dry on dead branches
