| The view from Lelan's desk -- and heart:
The Backstory
Since October, when I finished Parzival 15, I have been endeavoring to finish Parzival 16 & 17. Oh the stories I could share of all that has occurred in my life, as well as the lives of the Wise Cosmos team, and in the Being that is Wise Cosmos itself! Tales of opportunity and blessing, crisis and courage, epiphany and transformation, expansion and the attendant growing pains. It has been a wild ride, meteoric, never slowing down.
I am not the same person I was 5 months ago. There is no other way to say it. And the other four people who comprise the core members of the Wise Cosmos team can each tell their own stories with the same theme. For all our individual distinctions, we have all been carried along in this tide of growth and becoming.
With that as the barest yet truest backdrop, the reality is that not a single day has gone by without me striving to get to the Parzival editing. Yet during this period, faithfulness to you and everyone else in the Wise Cosmos community has required 100% of my commitment and effort in other facets and foundations of manifesting the Wise Cosmos mission and vision. I cannot easily explain that assertion, but I anticipate that many of you have been through similar experiences. It happens when the obvious and absolutely correct duties and responsibilities (such as me editing Parzival 16 & 17) must repeatedly take a backseat to the priorities clearly presented each day by Higher Realms.
The Good News
There has been a need to invest in our people, plus an upgrade of our processes and technologies. That necessity is almost complete and I anticipate that we will manifest the first permanent content on the Wise Cosmos website by the end of March, while simultaneously ramping up the video editing again, beginning with Parzival.
One happy evidence is that I have begun editing Parzival 16. Continuing the trend of this entire series, Brian's 16th lecture is even more dense than the previous ones, because his heart is to pack in as much content as he is able. Given the density of information Brian is sharing, preparing all the edits and significant on-screen content for Parzival 16 is going well -- and from a technical standpoint "fast" -- but the pace so far is 1 hour of editing for each 5 minutes of video. Then comes rendering, uploading, linking to the website, etc.
Moving into the future, the time has clearly come for us to hire another video editor. If you know a good person with up-to-date Premiere Pro skills who may be interested in joining the Wise Cosmos team, please invite that person to contact me. I look forward to speaking with them about the possibilities.
