Shaking Medicine

Submitted to Organelle:

“I’ve been experiencing recently the so-called n/om vibration (60.000 years old living tradition, no tokens, a “liquid” spirituality…) with people who were in contact with the Bushmen of the Kalahari.

Umpredictible, wild, raw, ecstatic “medicine”.

Physical contact, sharing the shaking, the sweat, the ecstasy…

I feel how it is “cooking me” with a life, a rhythm of its own..I’m pondering if somehow these fellow human beings of the Kalahari have “kept open the doors” and now, (as they told - first in dreams, then through physical contact- to Bradford Keeney) they are passing to us, like in a ecstatic game of tag, the remembrance of what it is to be fully alive…and it is spreading FAST (as far as I know through friends)”
