Naked Jade Explaining Lessons To Nephritic Friends In A Holy Place

Heralded Discovery? Divine Insight? Great Cosmic Revelation?

These are the questions left standing to this reporter while gazing at the Universe anew, following possibly the greatest interview of his months-long career. Imagine, if you will; a frightened little Wyoming Black Jade from a poor nephritic outcropping saying “Enough” and leaving his secure and comfortable home, once surrounded by family and friends of all colors of jade – from the brightest green nephrites to the the almost impossible robins egg blues – to strike out on his own, seeking the guidance of a mysterious, reclusive, and nebulous phantom of a Master Jade Carver, the Greatest Legendary Jade Artist of all time – The Naked Jade Carver. Traveling thousands of miles with just the rind on his back, searching and searching for the ONE who could possibly transform this gentle and sensitive, yet unrefined black jade into something more. Oh yes, there were times when the journey was hard and growth was slow coming. Terrifying times of uncertainty like that shown below:

Opps - Wrong one!!!

Always Blame It On The Computer!

This is The One!

But, persevere he did. Though the beginning was terrifying, and the road was long, he finally found the Master of all Masters – the ‘Great Mystical’ and the ‘Man with the Golden Hands’, with Zen-like Powers of the Sages of Old, The Naked Jade Carver Himself. And so started the lessons toward spiritual perfection and the introductions to the Great Minor Masters of the ‘The Reverend’ & ‘The Mage’. Through the hands of the as yet, all knowing and wisdomatic minor masters, this tiny Naked Jade experienced ever-growing awareness and fortitude (under the tutelage of the Greatest Jade Artist in the Universe), to forge ahead through mundane pleasures and self-hidden desires towards a never-ending journey of self-awareness and connection to the Ultimate Source; beyond the finite and even that which is buried in obscurity. Yes, he survived! Though the odds of such a transformation were stacked against him from the time of his first tattoo of Long Ago, Very Ancient and Pretty Darn Old Symbols that struck such a ‘chord’ in our Lil’ Hero from the beginning. Then on to the Great Battle Fraught with Peril beside the ever righteous ‘Reverend’ and the  cosmetic masterpiece “The Hatchling“, born from the genius of his mighty cousin of old, the fearless “Draco” .

Naked Jade & "The Master" Dueling For The Fate Of The World

Yes, this amazing Black Nephrite from Wyoming has grown! And grown in such a fashion as to be almost incomprehensible to this amazed reporter as our recent ‘personal interview’ unfolded into the wee hours on the morn. From the depths of the incomprehensible past, Omphalos has been dredged from its original beginnings, ‘Forged in Unison with The Great Spirit‘, in a moment of total awareness, by the Majestic ‘Mage’ and far beyond the time when Grecian and Jewish lore first forged the concept into the annals of history with their version of the timeless form known as “The Navel of the World”. Now, with all due humility, the unveiling of the ‘True Omphalos’ has emerged from this ‘Union of Spirit and Mage’ to be finally revealed to us mere mortals through the medium of the vastly, quickly emerging and mostly entirely spiritual Naked Jade who has allowed his very fibrous nephritic fabric of being to display such wondrousnesses upon his buttocks. Invited to the unveiling of the new, improved, more meaningful, triumphant and very important ‘Omphalos’ were some extremely special relatives of the Naked Jade. Special invitees to be sure, but not all the Nephritic Family that would have been appreciated by the Naked Jade and the Master of All Jade Carvers – The Naked Jade Carver; who, true to his nature, photographed these never-before-seen pictures that will most certainly set the Jade World ‘ablaze’ with unanticipated desire.

Khotan White (yingyu) & Khotan Black Jade Speaking Nephritese With Naked Jade

While the special ‘Eye of God’ Black Khotan Hetian Jade found the translation much more difficult to understand than the White Khotan Nephrite, these wonderful companions were flown first class courtesy of their Government especially for this ‘Secret Meeting’. The ‘Gist of Universal Truth’ was heard thoughout the land over a coupla’ cold ones, which seemed to perk up the festivities after awhile, and certainly added to metaphysical understanding of the crowd in the later hours.  The white jade was overheard to say at one point “OH MY” in his native Chinese. The newly discovered Dark Green Nephrite from the Ogden Mt. region of British Columbia was flown in as the specially  ’designated translator’ by Kirk Makepeace of Jade West for the occasion, and the only ‘incident of displeasure’ reported during the entire sacred meeting occurred when a few Californian Clear Creek Jadeites wearing their ‘leathers and riding in on their ‘choppers’ were escorted from the premises by the ever tight security in place. All in all, a rousing good time was had by those who attended, and the ‘Spiritual Magic’ of the occasion sounded across the world, and indeed “Rang Out Into The Heavens”.
