Art/Meditation come together in this fun grounding exercise. Teachers and parents this is your chance to get involved. Artists, please answer the call and do your part. Artists contribute to a quality society. Normally we would not suggest such a symbolic tactic, but now is a correct time for avoiding adventurism. It is a correct time to understand how contested and outright hostile the current political climate is.
Assignment: Get orange paper, origami paper if you can find it but any thin paper will work. Reuse paper or try recycled paper. There are many quality videos on how to make paper tigers on Youtube and you can find step by step instructions in origami books. Create different styles of paper tiger or just choose one. Its up to you. Some of the designs are very impressive 3-d or you can try the simple flat tiger head. Make a display, window display, mobile or arrangement and take pictures of your paper tigers when you are done. Share with hastag #PaperTigers. You may have to draw on your own tiger stripes with a pen. Look for a fine tip pen for crisp lines. Post your pics of your tiger of the I.S.R supporters FB page. The world community is still intelligent, and they will understand the meaning of this exercise.
Meditation: While you make your paper tiger you may try meditation. All lies unravel in time. Meditate on the impermanence of all things. On balance. I hope you find a small moment of peace. Take a moment to relax your nervous system that has been abused by the system. Malevolence has no longevity. Meditate on the restoration of Turtle Island. Meditate that one day the world will turn against the reactionaries. That the most ferocious and immeasurably violent empire truly is a mere paper tiger.
