be comfortable.
Scientist: (He looks down, miserable.)

will cure him for you. (Both laugh, silence.).
S. (Sober.) My life is nothing but pain.
J. There is no coming to consciousness without pain.

through an inferno.
S. (Angry.) My God! What do I do! (Exasperated.)

Song
Jill (Soprano) = Bold type.
Jack (Tenor) = Normal type.
(Jack sings to a person who stands up in the front row as a
mountain guide.)
Jack: You say: Trail twenty-two is good to see the rock formations
and it goes straight to the top where I can see the sunset and the
sunrise And you say: All those trails join half way up And I
will meet people who can tell me their view of the mountain.
Thank you for your help.
(Another member in the front row stands up as a mountain guide.)
Jill: You say: Trail Twenty-Three is good for seeing the sunset.
Oh that's the Trail I will take. I am in love with flowers and
bees and rocks and trees. You say: I could meet some one on
the way who can talk to me about mountains and how they all
got here on Earth. I'm in love with nature. Oh, nature is a part
of me! Thank you for your help!
I forgot to tell you I must stay all night. I must measure the sunrise.
I will stay to see the moon. Its getting late. I must stay with the
sun to finish my work. I have no flashlight here. I have a
flashlight here. Now the sun is down way below the horizon.
Where do I sleep to night? I should sleep alone? Where? Over
there! See the big rock? You'll be safe and private there for the
night. I'll be here. That is fine. It's quite cold. Yet, I'm okay; I
have this blanket to put on me. I'm fine. If you get very cold let
me know, and we can do something to solve the problem. Just call
to me. Love costs all we are but its love that sets us free. [Maya
Angelou] There are some snakes but they won't bother you. The snake
that is coiled in you will rise tonight. What? Sing me a poem
about this night.
Act III (Bar #829)
Jung: This is a serious moment. If his Kundalini wakes up,
something could happen.
Scientist: Kundalini? Whats that?
J. Kundalini is human energy, hidden in the body. It rests at the
base of the spine; coiled up like a snake, ready to rise up among
the chakras.
S. I do not get it.
J. It rises, as in steps on a ladder of flower-like energies. Chakras
start at the bottom of your spine and go upward by steps. Each step
goes higher to the spleen, then to the solar plexus, the heart, the
throat, the brow of your forehead and finally to the crown of your
head. (He demonstrates positions with his hand.)
S. Chakras. I never heard of them.
J. You cannot see them. They are the subtle body in your physical
body. As you grow up from childhood and mature, your
consciousness moves up this ladder of chakras. Growing up is like
climbing a mountain.
S. Step by step.
J. Yes. This subtle body is the architecture of the soul. The ladder
goes from earth to heaven. Our mountain climbers are about to
take a new step, falling in love.
S. What happened to them? They are alone
J. They would normally have sex tonight. Thats fine. But this is
also Divine energy. When the Kundalini rises with discipline, it
leads toward a higher consciousness. Its mystical. The purpose of
this ladder, ultimately, is to move into a higher consciousness.
S. If they are in love, they will have sex.
J. Well see. They cannot repress sexual energy. But if they
guide and channel that serpent powersomething new could
happen.
S. What would happen?
J. He could move past his depression. He could find a greater
sense of himself, wholeness. He might step up.
S. Are you saying that sex wont help?
J. Sex is great, but it is ordinary love. In this case, they began to
exchange energies without sex.
S. Go on
J. Their chakras will meet. They will transform their energies
tonight. The greatest love they could find is Agape.
S. Agape?
J. They could find Bliss together. When the Kundalini rises
properly and the Heart opens, it feels like a lover calling from
inside The Hindus say, Bliss is the peak of transcendence.
Listen.
Where did they go? Where they go? I can barely hear.
Come back. Come back and tell us what you said once again.
Treat this grief as a guest in your house. Ev'ry morning brings a
new feeling; you should treat each with honor and respect. Ev-
'ry dark feeling -- like grief, shame, fear, and even rage -- meet
them laughing. Yes. They are the rags of old clothes that cover
up who you are. Then let the sun rise before you. Dream in your
reality. The sun is there inside. Be the sun in the morning. At
noontime, speak personally to the rocks. Sing. Sing to the
flowers. Let them sing back to you.
Where are they? They are gone. I want to learn more. They
seem gone. Gone from us.
We will follow you down the mountain. (Yes.)
Song
Jack = plain. Jill = Bold. Angels (Yin/Yang) = Italics Bold
Oh. God. My God. Are you awake? Oh! Look at the sunrise.
Yes. Look. It's time, yes; time to measure the spectrum. What a
night! I had a dream. I had a dream. And you were there with
me. Oh?
What was your dream? There were two odd people. You mean:
two in one. You were there! Yes. My God! I did not understand
what they were saying, I did! Who were they? They said: We
are Nature." Who? Yin and Yang. What? Who? I do not know
them. They are Natures Lovers. Oh Yes. Lovers? What? It's
just a theory just a theory. Can I see those Lovers?
No. Some things you can't see. What do you mean? Tell me. Can
you see your feelings? No. I cannot see them. Yin/Yang say the
universe is inside you with its power transformed. This power
in me? Power in your body, transcended from the sun to you.
What? Well, I have hydrogen inside me. Oh, tell me more about
it please.
Hydrogen burns with Oxygen. Is this the fuel of the sun? Yes!
You have the sun inside. Hydrogen transcended inside your own
body. I hear you. What's that? Tell me about hydrogen.
Hydrogen bonds with other atoms to gain charges that are
positive and negative.
This is Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang. Life evolves by combining
and joining Yin and Yang. Life hangs on the balance of Yin
and Yang -- working hard (What?) together. (hard to
synthesize!)
Well. Let's go back down the mountain. But you have not
measured the spectrum yet. I forgot. How are you feeling now?
Much better. I think our dream is with us as we walk down this
mountain.
Look at those butterflies aren't they beautiful? Yes. How can we be
two and be one at the same time? I don't get it. Listen close to
your heart. Oh. Seeds in the spring begin to become trees and
(What?) then they are no longer seeds as they transform
themselves. Did you hear something?
I heard that a seed transforms and transcends into a tree. I
notice that all things are changing. You just looked at a butterfly
and it changed you. Oh. How can a caterpillar know what it is
like to be a butterfly? What was that? No "thing." How can a
seed know that it will some day become a flower? What was that?
Someone spoke to you.
Let us rest here.
Let me ask you a question. Yes. What will you do when you get
home? Go back to work. Do you have any friends back home?
Frankly No, not really good friends. The wind has secrets for
you. What? The rocks and the trees and the plants (What?) are
all your very best friends. The wind says to walk like a tiger
under those trees below and it will give you a new life. It will
blow sweet perfume across the forest and bring you home.
Your great soul will bring you home. What? If you follow love,
you will be able to hear us. You have to invent a new way like
nature does each day. Nature evolves and transcends.
I have one question. Yes?
Were you ever in love? I am in love with all these flowers, like
those roses and bluebells. Look! See those rocky cliffs there
and those trees. See those great birds up there so high. But all
those birds above will die and will no longer fly.
Look. Death is but a moment in time nothing ever dies. We all
live on forever. Remember our dream? I forgot. Have you read
about all the lovers in romance history? What! Have you read
"Cupid and Psyche?" No I have not! How about Daphnis and
Chloe? I have not Orpheus and Eurydice? No Heroe and
Leandro? No What about Tristan and Isolde? I'm afraid I have
not! What about Romeo and Juliet? Surely Yes, I do know
that story. Well! They were all about the tragedy of love. Each
love ended in a state of grief. What else could be possible?
The Divine in all. Yes. Now I remember. There is a higher love
in this world. If you sing with Nature you might find a love
that goes beyond all the romance we know. Who could teach me
this kind of love? Notice the thunder and rain and the flowing
rivers down to the sea with eagles flying high above in the sky.
Tell me what IS the sun in your own eyes. Tell me the story of the
sun so bright out there. What does the sun say to you?
The sun says: No one has MY memories. Oh, if I were not in
love no one else would be in love.
My God. What does that mean? No one else would love? The sun
transcended into your soul. You are the child of the sun
birthed in the power of its love. The power of the sun
transcended in you. Transcended! Yes. I understand. The sun
and (Yes) the earth were created four billion years ago. What's in
it? Helium. For you? And hydrogen. It's on fire, burning.
(Transforming, fusing) Thats deep love. (Synthesizing) burning
with love (producing) burning with love (on fire) burning in love
(making love, Oh!) burning deeply so deeply in love, in love, all
that is bitter becomes sweet (Yes) and all that is (Yes) pain
turns into joy and then to bliss [counterpoint] (becomes
happiness then Joy, more than you could know) (to Yes, Yes, to
joy, delight, and then to Bliss) That is a dream. What can and we
know? (To ecstasy) It's just not true. (Paradise and Bliss.)
Can you hear Yin and Yang singing? I can hear them singing
with the wind. Now you will hear them singing behind you. Soon
you will hear them singing right through you. Oh help me there!
