Lightning in A Bottle

This past weekend, May 26th - May 29th, I attended a festival in Bradley, California called Lightning in a Bottle. LIB is an event with many layers and experiences available to attendees. Everyone that attends the festival camps there and goes to sleep and wakes up surrounded by an atmosphere filled with unity, love, and the desire to share and become better versions of one another. LIB had a musical element to it as well as a Learning Kitchen, a Marketplace, a Family Zone, Immersive Environments, Art & Lightning in a Paintcan, and my two favorite's - The Lucent Temple of Consciousness and The Village.

The Lucent Temple of Consciousness was a tent in the heart of the festival where you could rest your head and expand your mind listening to renowned visionaries, wisdom keeps, master teachers, healers, activists, performers and musicians. "All Temple offerings are designed to activate your body, expand your mind, and open your heart." One of the speakers that stood out to me on Saturday was Sevan Bomar - a published author and spiritual activist who works in the field of Universal Energy. At LIB, Bomar spoke about the universal language of power and the connections between sounds, shapes, and colors - the fundamental elements of the universe.

Bomar explained and illustrated these connections using Sciematics - images of shapes made from playing different tones because every sound has a shape and a color and every color has a sound a shape etc. These images are made using a machine called a Scimoscope which helps translate in depth patterns of sounds and shapes. Furthermore, Bomar connects the universal language of these three fundamental elements to just about everything in our world - uniting all things together. You can listen to his full lecture online here.

Sevan Bomar also founded a movement and website called Astral Quest that I recommend you exploring. Quoted from his About Us page: "Neo-Universalism [is] a system of belief conducted around the Mind, Body, and Soul of its adherents which promotes the discovery of commonality between the actual universe and all of its lifeforms. Neo-Universalism produces doctrines from the Planetary Laws, Conjunctions, Geometry, Frequency, and various factual integers." 

(The Village)

The Village at LIB had many interactive micro-environments within it where talks and workshops were given; all focusing on re-integrating humanity into our ecosystem. One of the talks that resonated with me was given by Osiris Indriya where he connected the mystical teaching of Kabbalah to our lives and how we can use Kabbalah to improve them. During our lecture on nanotechnology I brought up how nanotechnology is one of the foundations of Kabbalistic practices and how going back to the basic nano forms found in nature is how we can learn more about ourselves as people and be able to take charge of our lives. Osiris also connected nature to our divine selves and spoke about using nature as a compass to accomplish goals in our lives.

I highly recommend attending an event such as Lighting in a Bottle where there is something available for everyone, all ages, on any wavelength and path in life. Below are a few pictures I took while at LIB that I thought related to our class and the combination of all three cultures:
