Mt Fuji Sunrise Time Lapse

2012-09-23T01:19:30.063Z

I had the privilege to pilgrimage Mt Fuji this past August 01, 2012.
Along the ascent to the Eighth station I utilized the words Trust, Joy, Beauty, Love, In Truth, Peace, and Harmony,with Reverence for God
as a continual mantra to keep my focus for this pilgrimage.

The day before and the day the pilgrimage was finished Mt Fuji was socked in with clouds. This morning after leaving the 8th station at 1:30 am to ascend to the top of Mt Fuji it was perfectly clear allowing for this time lapsed sunrise of 45 minutes brought to you in 4:00 minutes.

What an exhilarating experience. I can see why people do this pilgrimage!
Here is a poem that I wrote in Japan, on my first journey to Japan, in 2005 which still captures the feeling of this beautiful experience.

Ise-Kyoto, Japan 09.10.05
Miles & Miles
from familiar awareness
encountering the unknown
becoming vulnerable
in order to grow.
Fathoms of Heart Space
calling to be known....
Limitless expanses heralding
the Cosmos within.
Our Moments
awaiting Remembering
to all tracks, paths,
and in-roads
leading towards
ONE...
I am, We are, US
Robert Dakota

In 2005 the Mantra for the hike up was
Love, Gratitude, Peace, Prayers.

2005 was my first pilgrimage up Fuji-san. I was nearly to the top,
I could see the peaks edge and I had to turn back because I was with Drunvalo's group and we were all supposed to gather for ceremony at the foot of Mt Fuji for Amaterasu.

When I got the feeling I had to turn back and go down I saw a giant moth on the ground, a symbol of completion. I told myself one day I will come back and complete this journey....
I had no idea how that moment would play out. This is the image that captures the feeling of realizing how that played out so beautifully emphasized by the music and energy of asha.

Sedona 09.24.12
Thank you everyone,
Thank you Universe,
Thank you Great Spirit,
Thank You Amaterasu,
To The Heart of the Heavens,
and
To The Heart of Mother Earth
May Our Abundant Hearts guide us to
Remember who we really are....
Creators in the Image of God
Let there be Light!

I was in Tokyo for New Year 2011, Year of the Rabbit. Some friends of mine were performing with some other installation artists so I decided to film it and share this culture exchange through music and Imagery that I created to go with it, from the inspiration of their music. I went to Meiji Jingu and saw that they were blessing the Saki at the Temple grounds. Barrels of Saki. Just like putting prayers on and blessing water,
Beautiful impression.
The musicians all had a shot of Saki before they started their set.
All the lighting for the musicians was created organically by Installation artists using overhead projectors to create imagery by hand, utilizing everyday simple objects, and patterns, also to reflect lasers.
The music was created by a Dj and Live accompaniment.

This clip is dedicated to the Spirit and People of Japan!
