The aspirant Enters the Ambient Temple, acknowledges Shivakara, Lord Shiva's transformative vision. The vision brings a Dimensional Crossing. Some aspirants may catch a glimpse of Zanoni's Mystical Smile, and discover Dolce far Niente.
• • •
Zanoni, written by Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton in 1845, is a fictionalized account of the life of the Comte de Saint-Germain.

Dolce far Niente - "the pleasure of doing nothing"

The Greek modes describe a variety of musical flavors. Charukesi Mode, a major scale with a flatted 6th and flatted 7th, has no Greek equivalent. Charukesi is the name for this scale in the Indian Classical music system.

Starseed Weed, California

"This music - intricate yet melodic as Bach, austere as a Zen shrine, sensory as a massage - seems like aural eroticism to me." - Robert Anton Wilson
