The Kultrun
The kultrun is very sacred,
not anyone plays it,
sought after in dreams
for it symbolizes the land.
When it has an owner
it becomes truly divine
because it guards the secrets
of a unique and mystical art.
When its owner dies
it is best to destroy it,
but not just anywhere,
it needs to be thrown into a river.
The most precise time
is always at sunset
because it remains asleep
what is called “power”.
There the flow of water
along the setting of the Sun
carries the energies
back to the Creator.
The forces here enclosed
break free into the sea;
remain then lost,
sleeping in eternity.
“Allí la corriente de agua junto a la puesta del Sol se llevan las energías de regreso al Creador.”
“There the flow of water along the setting of the Sun carries the energies back to the Creator.”
The photo above captures the magic of the sunset in the Vancouver city. The lights of the setting sun reflect a beautiful colour thus creating a truly mystical environment. A peaceful association of nuances, a perfect contrast between the brightness and the shadows complements the sleep of such called “power” described in the poem. The waves weighted with colour seem to carry the energies and free them into the open sea. The link of the photo and the poem is based upon a spiritual and divine atmosphere that both of them create.
