We recreated the Woodstock LIGHT Bus today to inspire others to take that journey with us. Turn inward, expand you consciousness outward, and embrace the realization that we are all one people on one planet.
Dr. Bob taught all of us on the Light Brigade committee how can we use light to heal others. When you pass a homeless person or anyone in need, see them bathed in light. White or green or blue. Visualize sending light to everyone in distress. Even your enemies. In fact, especially your enemies. If you have no extra money to help someone in need, send the light. It's free! See our world leaders bathed in light, activating that spark of divine consciousness inside each of them.
The rear of the bus says "S/he is Coming" because divinity is genderless. As we spoke to you about in the interview about the Statue of Liberty, the Female Divine is a powerful aid for both men and women to find balance. Restoring the female half of the divine will open consciousness to gender equality, allowing leadership for women. When women lead, partnership models will take the place of the current patriarchal domination model.
Possibly the most important component in this 2018 recreation of the LIGHT Bus was the intentional will of the artist team assembled by Dr. Bob. He made them study! They had lessons on every arcane symbol, and poured their intentions into every brush stroke.
Our hope is that everyone glimpsing this bus will experience a shift in consciousness on a subconscious level, because symbols are assimilated into our consciousness quickly, even after just a fleeting glance as they speed by on the highway.
MAB: This is all awesome! So, the bus, as a vehicle of or for new kinds of thought, seems like it could have archetypal parallels to the Yellow Submarine - does it have its own Hero's Journey, too?
RH: There are certainly parallels between the Yellow Submarine and Woodstock itself. Both are known and loved by people all over the world as vehicles of joy and companionship.
In our book we talk about how the Yellow Submarine influenced the peace movement, and how the Vietnam War protesters would spontaneously break out singing "Yellow Submarine" at peace rallies. They built large Yellow Submarine floats for their parades. As they said, they adopted the symbol to represent their trust in their future, and their longing for a place fit for us all to live in. It represented a new way of looking at life.
LC: We also talk about how, less than a year after the film was released in the U.S., the utopia of Pepperland came to life among the rolling dairy farms of upstate New York.
The Woodstock festival was a gathering of close to half a million young people enjoying love and music peacefully for three days. Pepperland became a reality, even its exemplary civil obedience. The social order integrated natural landscapes and rock music as the scenery of an illusory emancipation. The police decided not to pursue the drug use, and the governor sent in military helicopters to drop food and blankets, and even flowers, on the participants.
What made the biggest impression on everyone was what didn't happen that weekend in New York. No riots, no mob scene, a lot of sharing and helping, in other words, the Pepperlandian spirit.
