Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hello All, My comments appear at the bottom of this exchange. color:windowtext"> [] On Behalf Of Harsha Sunday, April 16, 2006 5:15 PM NondualitySalon; [ - Ramana Guru] Grand Camel Back: Is Enlightenment Personal? Thanks Bob for the kind comments and glad that you enjoyed the article. I am not a fashion trend setter but appreciate the comment on my shirt. The shirt that I have on is a very inexpensive Walmart shirt. It may have come from Madras, but I am not sure. color:#3333FF;font-weight:bold"> I noticed that you like the pictures of the Grand Camel Back mountain Michael Bowes posted in his article. Michael is a modern day sage and has written about the similarity between Arunachala and the Camel Back mountain. He would agree with you Bob about the spiritual force in that mountain. I will copy this to HS which Michael reads and posts on once in a while. He loves the Camel Back mountain and will enjoy reading your comments on it. Love to all, Harsha Bob N. wrote: Harsha....this is Easter morning I write. Up early for day 2 of family festivities, I got around to reading your "Is Enlightenment Personal?" piece in the wee time of this Paschal Day. It's wonderful. I also am looking at your picture.you look terrific guy! Intelligent, Serene and Happy....what more indeed could one want. Well I would like a Madras shirt like that. I still am enamored by Madras garments, in particular the shirts. When young and attending University, they were all the fashion, and I collected an assemblage of them in many different types and colors...an accumulation that grew beyond the limitations of my closet..obsession is another facet of mine that has always required some respect for attention to limits needed to be imposed thereof. I also need mention that upon scrolling down from there, I noticed heading the posting by Michael, "The Guru Came as Ramu - Conclusion", a photo of a mountain of particular import in my life past. Grand Camelback! Mount of Mystery.........Paradise Valley around her is aptly named. In a time not so distant past, well 4 1/2- 5 decades past......there was a far more unspoiled area around Her. On old Camelback Road where now only commerce and lovely dwellings and hotels and golf courses exist, there stood large stands of date palms and desert floor as well. This has changed of course and how much I can only imagine, as I haven't returned to those haunting areas since the early 1980s. And by then things had already been dramatically altered. From the time that I had left to that return, Scottsdale had become a different place indeed. Indian School Road had been it's final frontier, on one side, in those days of yore in my youth, but I found myself bewilderd on return after two plus decades, to find the old Reservation had been encroached upon by annexation or lease and no longer presented the Vastness that previously one viewed from that town limit side road as well. Oh my golly, I'm going on here far to much and I will stop the memory lane thing.. because for real those memories still live within, no matter what changes have been wrought for and by the rush of our times and tribe. I was just wondering though if that snapshot had been taken from Papago? Another fascination with me that underwent the shifting of sands by that last visit, but also an area that was pivotal for me long ago in that area between Phoenix and the "West's Most Western Town". It looks as though, just from the perspective of the shot, that this may be the area from which it's moment and light were captured by the camera. Just a silly question here. And a word to he/she that took that wonderous photograph: both pysical areas, Camelback and Papago are Spots of Power, and can perform upon the person walking thereon, a healing and a bestowal of gifts and communion, that all words fail to capture. And this sorcerous charm happens with one even without one's knowledge or beliefs. Congrats to the fortunate here who so flicked this pictorial representation. Thanks again for your gift of words Harsha and for the memories as well. .....bob font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue">mb: font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue">Namaste Bob, Harsha and everyone, font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue">Bob I have admired your writing since you started posting on this group. You certainly have a fine way with words. May I ask if you are Native American? I noticed that you refer to the “tribe” and the “reservation” which is on the east side of Scottsdale. I love the spirituality of the Native Americans, and in days past I read several books such as “Black Elk Speaks”, the “Book of the Hopi”, and “Seven Arrows”. I love the way that Native American spirituality acknowledges the presence of the Great Spirit in all of nature, in all existence. font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue">But there’s no doubt of your love of Camelback and the Papago Hills. That area is a wonderful, magical place of spiritual power. Did you know that according to authoritative sources the cave on Camelback, known as the “Sacred Grotto”, is the oldest known place of worship in the Valley? It was used by more than one tribe in the area as a place to perform sacred ceremonies. Many ritual artifacts were excavated from that cave and authenticated by the Smithsonian Institute (see “Camelback, Sacred Mountain of Phoenix”, written by Gary Driggs). font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> Camelback font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue"> Mountain font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:blue">, along with the rock formation the “Praying Monk”, is very special to me.

You are a source of great wisdom and fine composition. Your words are genuinely and spiritually enriching. Thank you. I am not Native American myself Michael, but have been fortunate and blessed in knowing, both in the past and to this day, many of our brothers and sisters belonging to those communal groups of people that comprise that assemblage of nations of native first inhabitants of our present homelands. I was in my early adolescent years when working with my father, who was a photographer for the Scottsdale Daily Progress at the turning of the fifth to the sixth decade of the last century, that I first encountered these beautiful people. I encountered one in particular, who resided on the Salt River Reservation and was of Pima-Maricopa lineage, who was very instrumental in connecting the dots, as it were, between many diverse areas of thought and spirituality.At that time Stewart Udall, was US Secretary of the Interior in JFK's cabinet, and would often visit the Councils and affairs thereof on the Reserves. It fell to me, as young as I was, to cover many of those events... to take photos for the paper, as dad was busy handling what were considered more important things. What a wonderful Fate this was. The Chiefs and Council would sit with the State and Federal dignitaries, and other tables were set out for other attendees and the media, and the women would serve meals and refreshments to all and sundry. I would take the neccesary pictures of the bigwigs, eat and after some time get driven back to the paper, by whatever reporter was covering the story, in order to develop and print the film and bring it to the city editor who would choose which ones were the most significant; and then dad would have me scan whichever ones on the "Fairchild Engraver"(a VERY innovative and modern piece of equipment in that day and age). I digress a bit here. Memory Lane has that effect on me. At any rate at one of these sessions I was to meet this pivotal person, and all kinds of magic did then enter the young man's life indeed. In spending time with my friend, we would together, and sometimes with others of his and other nations as well, travel footwise in some of those environs of Camelback and Papago. There were actually several rock formations that were considered points of great power to my friends, and ultimately by me as well. There is a Mystery of Enormous Moment in the Sonoran, and Camelback is alive to those who would believe. Without going on too far here, I would just like to say that I am overjoyed to find someone else who understands, respects and feels the Holy Power that emerges from that place of the earth .As to "Superstition"..dad was a big buff of the Lost Dutchman's Mine stories and we would as a family take many trips to Apache Junction and visit the Legend. As I write these words now, I sit at a desk below a 16"x20" black and white photograph of Superstion with an impossibly tall sujuaro in the foreground, that was printed on mat paper, then oil paint brushed by dad, and framed for posterity. That posterity is now and I'm so thankful to him for the wonderful presence that it bestows in this room. I will download the pdf file of your article on Camelback in a short while, and anticipate with great delight reading it. Your photograpic work is stunning, and I rejoice when viewing that as well. as is my usual wont I have gone on too long and hope that I haven't bored you with too much minutiae. Thanks again Michael and thank you Harsha for the introductions. .......bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It speaks to that Truth of the Great Mountain, and I thank you so much. Though just now reading this piece some three years from the written first point in it's line, it's a line of ascent, not descent, and those words will, like the pictures and message live onward and upwards for all there is of time.
