Native Spirit by JuliaWright
Best Viewed Large All Rights Reserved / @ Julia Wright Native Son I’ve seen many moons through these wrinkled eyes / The years have made me old but they’ve made me wise / Now the white man lives where our rivers run For now better days have passed / We walk the streets of broken glass / Our people vanished as snow before the summer sun / Like dogs we were driven from this place / Such injustice, time will not erase / All these changes cannot be undone When you feel the anger inside of you / Hold your head high – let your aim be true / Though your heart beats like a drum / My native son Once there was a time my little one / Before the wagons – before the soldiers’ guns / When this land was ours as far as the eagle flies No white flag – no broken truce / With few words one can speak the truth – I don’t hear it / Time won’t heal it now With each new day that comes to pass / Will the great spirit free us all at last? / He said we were the chosen ones For all we had there’s nothin’ left / We won’t forgive – we can’t forget / You know that your day will come / My native son With each new day that comes to pass / Will the great spirit free us all at last? / What has happened can never be undone When I was young – not yet a man / The sun rose and set upon our land / We were the chosen ones / My native son

Mandala by JuliaWright
Best Viewed Large All Rights Reserved / @ Julia Wright The Great Mandala So I told him that he’d better shut his mouth / And do his job like a man. / And he answered “Listen, Father, / I will never kill another.” / He thinks he’s better / than his brother that died / What the hell does he think he’s doing / To his father who brought him up right Take your place on The Great Mandala / As it moves through your brief moment of time. / Win or lose now you must choose now / And if you lose you’re only losing your life. Tell the jailer not to bother / With his meal of bread and water today. / He is fasting ‘til the killing’s over / He’s a martyr, he thinks he’s a prophet. / But he’s a coward, he’s just playing a game / He can’t do it, he can’t change it / It’s been going on for ten thousand years Tell the people they are safe now / Hunger stopped him, he lies still in his cell. / Death has gagged his accusations We are free now, we can kill now, / We can hate now, now we can end the world / We’re not guilty, he was crazy / And it’s been going on for ten thousand years! Take your place on The Great Mandala / As it moves through your brief moment of time. / Win or lose now you must choose now / And if you lose you’ve only wasted your life Lyric’s Peter, Paul & Mary

About This Group
Artwork / photography with a mandala theme…
The meaning of mandala comes from Sanskrit meaning magic circle. Even though it may be dominated by squares or triangles, a mandala has a concentric structure. Mandalas offer balancing visual elements, symbolizing unity and harmony. The meanings of individual mandalas is usually different and unique to each mandala. For some, the goal of the mandala is to serve as a tool on one’s spiritual journey as it symbolizes cosmic and psychic order. For others, the mandala is used as a counter-balancing mechanism of one’s own psyche, a way for us to focus or meditate our way into becoming a whole person.
Guidelines:
- please only 1 entry per week allowed
- must describe what media was used for artwork / photography
