Sage Sage rubbed vs. land that is the best? Do they both have the same purpose?

They serve the same purpose. I think it would be slightly rubbed sage stallion that rub, and I can not think why it would be better than the other.

Buffalo rubbing stones are one of the natural phenomena of interest around Calgary. During the last ice age, this whole area was covered by glaciers. Since that these glaciers retreated, dragging with them large stones and rocks. When a rock was too heavy to drag Glacier, found a new home. Some of these rocks were carried hundreds of miles and some were the size of a car or truck.

Later, when herds of buffalo roamed the area, who loved to rub along these rocks, especially in spring when stripped of winter coats. The buffalo are not here in the great number of recent, but people.

Calgary grew up around a number of these stones. People are attracted to them, almost as much as the buffalo. Many are attractions Popular tourist. A relatively small buffalo rubbing stone living in a park in my neighborhood. He went next to a small plantation of aspen and is surrounded by honeysuckle bushes, sage and wild asters. As the area developed, this park was intact and set aside land to natural grasslands.

The neighborhood school regularly takes the children on field trips to the stone as part of its study of the natural history of this area. I remember my own children at home very happy with This stone and sharing stories of buffalo hair is in the rock long after the buffalo disappeared.

The stone has the appearance of great age, is covered with lichen and moss. It is about shoulder height and he is about six feet long and three feet wide. This rock almost demands respect. I find it interesting that has been touched by the youth of the area, while another smaller stone covers about fifty feet away in the woods with graffiti and paint.

So, what means a buffalo rubbing stone to do with wisdom? What is wisdom? The human mind has been a great mystery of philosophy and science during eons. All our experience of life is created by our perceptions and our perceptions are colored by our beliefs. No two human beings perceive the same event in the same way. It's a miracle that even live with them at all.

For me, a wise mind using their perceptions, so, no matter how old the owner. The key to wisdom lies in understanding their perceptions and their underlying beliefs. And also understanding that no other human being is something in the same way you do. Sometimes this is refreshing and sometimes downright annoying. Perhaps this is the birth of compassion.

Humans tend to assign great wisdom beings of great age. Our stories are full of them. Think of Merlin, Gandalf, the magician and the Ents, tree, former pastors of the Fangorn Forest in "The Lord of the Rings. "

We have in our minds many layers of consciousness and / or perception. One of these layers provides a connection to a wealth of knowledge and wisdom. Carl Jung calls this the "collective unconscious". I call my "inner sage.

If I have a problem or question that I think requires the addition of deep inner wisdom, or knowing, I enter a meditative state, quiet my mind and ask my inner wisdom to move forward. If my mind is quite calm, I feel his presence. Then I will ask my question, clear my mind and listen. If I receive a response (usually the first thoughts that come to mind), it remains my choice to decide whether or not to follow it.

Since ancient buffalo rubbing stone in our park, it reminds me so much of my wisdom Inside, I thought it was going to have some fun for a day and create the perception of the introduction of one another. I offer this insight to you for your enjoyment.

Leaning against the stone, connected to my inner wisdom and asked what kind of wisdom to share a buffalo rubbing stone if he could speak. I cleared my mind, pen and paper in hand and this is what I heard. "Antigua is only a state of mind, as wisdom. Wisdom and knowledge are available to all No matter what age. I have seen many centuries come and go and people do not change. Their minds do. Where is your mind now? Does it profit? Wise people are a gift for themselves and I encourage each of you to find inner wisdom. How will you know true wisdom? It is compatible with all life. Shine something I'm as old as age and have never seen as bright as a wise man. Know you are loved beyond measure by their planet and its beings. "
