Mongoose

Meaning:

"Snake-vanquishing trickster teaching through yielding. Sensory enrichment through tasting Earth's beauties without guilt. Teaches that yielding to temptations self-teaches, dancing with cosmic serpent, partaking toxic doses homeopathically reveals learning balance—all is eternal treasure chest of elixirs, drawing purity from toxins."

Teaching:

Bring breath of fresh air—full permission to be human
Teach art of vanquishing through yielding
Yield to temptations, learn from them usually hard way
Stop through act of will or go so deep you stop through own misery
Not here to be in self-denial, miserable, austere, tight
Here to learn, taste, imbibe, make mistakes, fail, get lost, fall
Taste Earth's beauties, sip her nectar, absorb music of spheres

Contemplation:

"Can I yield to learn? How will I dance with the cosmic serpent?"
