(We published the video of this talk yesterday and wanted to provide the same talk in our podcast. So, here it is.)
But What Can I Do To Change It?
“Don’t live for them. Live for you.” He answered and leaned over. “Take back what is yours. A person’s Song can never get cut away from them. They tricked you into turning away from it. To blind yourselves. Make yourselves numb. But you do not have to be. You can fight. Only this war is inside you.”
Among the exquisite beauty of Kay’s writing is her ability to touch the truth of your heart, the truth few aim to touch anymore, and make your heart resonate and experience new possibilities for living and loving.
We can only grasp as much of what we are being offered as the place we are at on our growth journey allows us to. The further we are on that journey, the more of what is being offered will make sense, and the more profoundly it will affect our beings and lives.
The passage with Domano’s answer to Kay’s question about what she can do to change things is from Chapter 5 of Kay’s book Sacred Link, called “Touch The Clay, Touch The Altar.” Sacred Link is all about reawakening the senses because our senses are the secret doorway to awakening to the fullness of our being.
In this passage, Kay talks about how, after an intense day of training going late into the night, where Domano and Chea guided her to experience a deep understanding of the profoundly dysfunctional ways people in our modern culture are programmed to live, so much so that she cried herself to sleep.
During her conversations the following day with Domano, her adopted Peruvian grandfather and teacher, Kay said: “Oh yeah. The overwhelming amount of control that has been executed upon us through the centuries by manipulating our senses, particularly the sense of touch, was now really sinking in.”
And then she asked: “But what can I do to change it?”
To which Domano responded:
“Don’t live for them. Live for you.” He answered and leaned over. “Take back what is yours. A person’s Song can never get cut away from them. They tricked you into turning away from it. To blind yourselves. Make yourselves numb. But you do not have to be. You can fight. Only this war is inside you.
“The battle here is to find yourself and the path you stand on. It’s knowing your own Song and feeling this life inside you and all things; living a life that gives as much as it takes from all the relatives and meet them, know them, share love with them, learn the wonders of the world from them; to meeting with your own species in harmony and giving; being able to respect yourself among the generations. This is dancing the web. This is wanowa ka ta see. It is a choice to walk this beauty or to give up and walk as one of the living dead.”

In this talk, Kay goes through Domino’s answer point by point and reveals just how far-reaching his answer truly was.
