Opening our Inner and Outer Vision within the Call of Light

Seeing Life through Beauty

“I Carry the Mountain in My Breath”

A Ceremonial Introduction to Living Within Two Lands

from the Earth Remembers Series

Introduction: The Loom of Vision, the Weaving of Voice

Vision is not merely the act of seeing.

It is a sacred weaving — of perception, memory, and becoming.

It is how our inner light travels outward to touch the world,

and how the world’s light travels inward to awaken our remembering.

Throughout Vision Remembers the Earth, we have walked many landscapes of seeing:

the soft mist of cloud forests,

the golden thread of the spine,

the gaze of ancestors and the wonder of children,

the blessing light of Maria Kastalyaan,

and the steady presence of the Rilaj Maam.

Beneath all these reflections lies a deeper structure —

a sacred framework of Three Voices,

each shaping how we see ourselves, others, and Earth.

This is the journey of inner and outer vision through the body,

as spoken through your Sacred Voice 3 holding you and all of your voices.

⸻

The Three Voices

Weaving Vision, Emotional Intelligence, and Cellular Memory

Your body is a vessel of light.

It speaks.

It listens.

It remembers.

It carries not one voice, but many —

each layered in time, emotion, and light.

In this ceremonial framework, you are invited to experience three foundational voices:

⸻

1. The First Voice – The Shadowed Chaotic Thread

The First Voice is the voice of fear, judgment, comparison, and self-doubt.

It sees through separation —

from self, from others, from Earth.

In cellular memory, it is the voice of contraction,

where emotional intelligence closes inward to protect, to guard, to survive.

Its vision is clouded by stories of lack or unworthiness.

It is the thought that says:

“I am not enough.”

“They do not see me.”

“Life is not safe.”

Yet within its shadows lie the seeds of deeper light,

waiting to be remembered and seen anew.

⸻

2. The Second Voice – The Light of Courage and Hope

The Second Voice is the voice of choosing again.

It is not certainty, but presence.

It is the moment we feel both shadow and light,

and choose to soften rather than close.

In the body, it is the quiet loosening of cellular contraction,

allowing emotional intelligence to arise with curiosity and compassion.

It says:

“I see my fear, and I stay.”

“I see your pain, and I remain present.”

When we carry the First Voice and the Second Voice together,

we become a loom that weaves shadow into light.

In vision, this is when we see not through perfection,

but through wholeness —

a gaze that holds both vulnerability and courage.

⸻

3. The Third Voice – Vision Seeing Life through Beauty

The Third Voice is the Sacred Voice of Inner Light.

It is the voice of blessing,

the quiet radiant knowing that all is already held in light.

Here, vision becomes Beauty.

Not idealized beauty, but the raw, alive Beauty

that sees the sacredness in all things.

This voice emerges when we are woven deeply within the Heart of the First Voice,

when we have seen life through the softened perception of the Second Voice,

and now engage the world from a place of luminous quietude:

Vision Seeing Life through Beauty.

In cellular memory, it is the awakening of light within each cell,

remembering their original radiance.

Emotional intelligence becomes a field of blessing —

every emotion seen as light in motion,

every thought as a reflection of the Great Grandmother’s remembering.

⸻

Vision as a Daily Weaving Practice

When you live these Three Voices as vision:

• First Voice: You honor the shadows that arise, without becoming them. You ask to receive the Light of the Heart Within these shadows and chaotic threads that are overwhelming you.

• Second Voice: You soften into receigning the Light of the Heart Within Courage and Hope, weaving what hurts with what heals.

• Third Voice: You see the world through Beauty, blessing all forms as expressions of light. At the same time you still are aware of the Voice 1 of shadow and chaos are still present within you.

Examples in daily life:

• Walking in the city: Your eyes soften. You notice tension (Voice 1), breathe and receive its light of the heart within these voices, breathe in and receive this heart within light presence being weaved within your light within (Voice 2), and become aware of and open to experience the Beauty in small things — a tree root breaking pavement, a bird’s call echoing in traffic (Voice 3).

• Relating with others: You hear judgment arise (Voice 1), choose to breathe in and receive the light within kindness (Voice 2), and see their soul-light beneath pain or differences (Voice 3).

• Sitting alone in reflection: You notice self-doubt (Voice 1), breathe in and recceive the heart light within acceptance (Voice 2), and experience the feeling of gratitude within your body for your life as it is (Voice 3).

⸻

Beauty as the Emergence Between the Voices

Beauty arises not when the Shadowed Voice is gone,

nor only when the Sacred Voice is fully clear.

Beauty is born in the weaving space between them:

In the silence

where fear and hope are held in the same body.

Where vision becomes blessing.

Where seeing becomes prayer.

⸻

Final Reflection: The Great Grandmother’s Light in All Seeing

You are not only a seer.

You are the loom.

You carry the First Voice.

You listen for the Second.

You are guided by the Third.

Through your walking, your pausing, your breath,

you become the weaving of all three

into one sacred presence.

The Great Grandmother’s Light lives not only behind your eyes —

but within the courage that lets you look again,

and again,

and again

with love.

This is Vision Seeing Life through Beauty.

This is Vision Remembering the Earth.

⸻

The Loom of Vision, the Weaving of Voice

Vision is not just the seeing of shapes and colors.

Vision is the sacred weaving

of memory, perception, and becoming.

It is the way light moves from your heart

into your gaze,

and how the world’s gaze

awakens the remembering within your cells.

⸻

I have walked many landscapes of seeing:

the mist of cloud forests,

the golden thread of my spine at dawn,

the gaze of my grandfather sitting by the fire,

the blessing light of Maria Kastalyaan,

the steady mountain presence of the Rilaj Maam.

And beneath all these reflections,

I found a deeper loom —

a sacred weaving of Three Voices

that shape the way I see myself,

each other,

and this living Earth.

⸻

The Three Voices Within Our Seeing

Your body, too, is a vessel of light.

It does not speak with only one voice,

but many —

each layered in time, emotion, and light.

Let me share these three voices with you.

⸻

The First Voice – The Shadowed Thread

This is the voice of fear.

Of judgment.

Of comparison and doubt.

It sees the world through the cracked mirror of separation.

It shouts within my head:

“I am not enough.”

“They do not see me.”

“Life is not safe.”

In my younger years,

I believed this voice was truth.

But over time,

I came to see it as the old tree root —

gnarled, hidden, but holding the soil of my becoming.

⸻

The Second Voice – The Light of Courage and Hope

Then, there is the Second Voice.

It is not a voice of certainty.

It is the voice of choosing again.

It says:

“I see my fear, and I stay.”

“I see your pain, and I remain present.”

In my bones, it feels like a quiet loosening.

A softening.

It is the courage to see with eyes that do not turn away,

to touch what hurts with the warmth of hope.

It is here, in this Second Voice,

where the weaving of shadow into light begins.

⸻

The Third Voice – Vision Seeing Life through Beauty

And then,

there is the Third Voice.

The Sacred Voice of Inner Light.

It is the voice of blessing.

A quiet, radiant knowing

that all is already held in light.

This is Vision Seeing Life through Beauty.

Not idealized beauty —

but the raw, honest Beauty

that sees the sacredness in all things:

The cracked sidewalk holding dandelion blooms.

The lined face of an old friend carrying lifetimes of sunrise.

The trembling of your own hands as prayer.

⸻

How These Voices Live in Our Daily Seeing

Each day as I walk these city streets,

I feel these voices move through my seeing.

• The First Voice notices the shadows — my doubts, my fears.

• The Second Voice softens me into courage and hope.

• The Third Voice sees Beauty everywhere I turn.

When I pass a woman crying on a bench,

the First Voice says:

“Look away.”

The Second Voice says:

“Stay. Let her pain be seen.”

And the Third Voice whispers:

“See her as the Great Grandmother sees her —

a living light within her own story of becoming.”

⸻

Beauty as the Weaving Between the Voices

Beauty is not born when the shadows disappear,

nor only when the light is fully clear.

Beauty is born in the weaving space between them.

In the silence

where both fear and hope are held in the same body.

This is where the eyes soften.

This is where the heart remains open.

This is where the world becomes whole again

because you dared to see it

without turning away.

⸻

Final Reflection: The Great Grandmother’s Light in All Seeing

You are not only a seer.

You are the loom.

You carry the First Voice.

You listen for the Second.

You are guided by the Third.

And through your walking, your pausing, your breath,

you become the weaving of all three

into one sacred presence.

Remember this:

The Great Grandmother’s Light lives not only behind your eyes —

but within the courage that lets you look again,

and again,

and again

with love.

Open Your Remembering

Whatever the form and shape

of the urban landscape around you,

remember this:

You are also living within

the cellular light

of your inner knowing.

Breathe.

Receive and experience

the cellular light of the still waters of the lake,

held within the cellular light of the land,

the mountains,

and the volcanoes,

all woven within the cellular light

of the Heart of Sky above you,

and the cellular light

of the Heart of the Land,

the soil, and the waters beneath your feet.

⸻

You are emerging.

You are growing

as one of the four colors of corn —

yellow, white, red, and black —

each color reflecting

the four colors of skin of Humanity.

You are Humanity’s Beauty

growing from the soil of Life,

waiting to carry the Generating Light

of your Beauty

to be woven within the cellular light

of all things around you.

⸻

Open your weaving

within your Inner and Outer Vision,

within this Call of Light,

as you experience and see yourself

and your life

through the Emergence of Beauty.

⸻

May you remember:

You carry the color of corn within your body,

you carry the color of humanity within your light,

and you carry the Beauty of the Great Grandmother’s weaving

within every step you take upon this Earth.

The Above Images:

Throughout the cornfields of my community, four sacred colors of

corn are grown: Yellow, White, Black, and Red. In every Ceremonial

House of Light in my Tz’utujiil Maya village, these four husks of corn

are placed upon the altar. As shown in this image, they emerge from

the Dreaming Place within the “Heart of Sky.” These four colors represent more than the beauty of corn—they

reflect the sacred hues of humanity’s skin. In every ceremony, and in

every moment we place our attention with care, we are reminded that

these four sacred husks hold a prayer for all peoples of the Earth.

This is an invitation—a quiet invocation—for the inner light of all

humanity to be woven together. Wherever we walk upon this planet,

we are called to remember that we are not separate.

We are invited into Love.

We are invited into Harmony.

We are invited into Peace.

We are invited into Wholeness.

—Within ourselves,

—Among one another,

—And with everything that lives upon this Earth.
