WHO IS SWAMI BEYONDANANDA?

Once in many, many lifetimes comes a being so evolved, so enlightened, so pure that the entire world is transformed. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anyone like that around these days.

Fortunately, we do have Swami Beyondananda to help us maintain our jestive health in a world that has become less and less funny. As the Swami says, "Indeed, the world is in a grave state -- and the best way to overcome gravity is with levity."

Swami can truly say he came from humble beginnings. His parents operated a Humble gas station just outside of Muskogee, Oklahoma. At a very early age, it became apparent that young Swami was different from the other children. You know how children quietly put their heads down on the desk when they fall asleep in class? Well, Swami would float to the ceiling. His father realized he could not provide the spiritual training that his gifted young son needed, so he apprenticed him to the most evolved spiritual teacher in Oklahoma, the Native American shaman Broken Wind.

Broken Wind believed that we are traumatized as babies by intestinal gas or colic. The great shaman invented a technique called "gastral projection" to help release these traumas. His philosophy was simple: "To air is human ... but to really cut one loose is divine." Young Swami was a mischievous boy who liked to play pranks on his teacher while the latter was meditating. Often, he would sneak up on Broken Wind from behind, grab him around the chest in a kind of Heimlich maneuver, and squeeze as hard as he could. His good-natured teacher put up with this for a while. But one day, true to his name, he gastrally-projected his young charge across the room. Swami learned a valuable lesson that day: Don't squeeze the shaman.

Now Swami grew up in a Methodist family (actually, his father was Methodist and his mother was Catholic -- so technically, he was a Rhythm-Methodist) and as a young teenager, he became quite taken with the opposite sects. He was very impressed when an Oklahoma swami who called himself the Yogi From Muskogee (Swami has since taken that title) came to his boy scout troop and taught him to tie himself into twelve different knots. Swami quickly embraced the path of the yogi and mastered many advanced techniques, including levitation. Building on the gift for levity he was born with, Swami would often hover over the stands at his high school football games and moon the crowd. He was the only student in Muskogee history ever to get suspended for being suspended.

But like many a young man before him who flew too high too soon, the Swami was headed for a fall. His accelerated path to yogihood hit a dead end when his kundalini exploded in a crowded department store. No one else was injured, but Swami caught an inflection which left him with a permanent East Indian accent.

Now this was in the late 1960s, right in the midst of the Sects Revolution, and Swami began to explore all kinds of kinky sects. He studied with the guru of rock n' roll, Baba Oom Mow Mow, who taught his own version of the Golden Rule: "Do wop unto others as you would have them do wop unto you."

A failed romance with a singer in one of Baba Oom Mow Mow's girl groups left Swami in heartbreak hotel -- and that was how he Came to Elvis. When Elvis appeared in a dream asking, "Are you lonesome tonight?" Swami converted to Presleyterianism right on the spot. It was one of those new lite religions popping up in those days -- same satisfaction with one third the commandments. For the prophet Elvis asks only three things of his flock: Love Me Tender. Don't Be Cruel. Please Surrender.

And the King promises eternal life as well, for it is written that old Presleyterians never die -- they just return to Sender. But still, young Swami was spiritually restless, and he sought out wilder and wilder sects. The turning point came when he woke up one morning with a sugar hangover in a strange biker crash pad where the inhabitants wore saffron leather vests and reeked of incense. That was when he knew he'd hit bottom -- he had come one thin ponytail away from becoming a Harley Krishna.

That day, the Swami swore off sects completely. Spirit was immaterial, he decided, and he now sought fulfillment by filling himself full of all the material goodies life could provide. He moved to New York to study with the renowned guru of the stock market, Yuan Tibet, who instructed him in the Dowist path. Swami became more and more dependent on the stock market prophet, buying soybean futures like there was no tamari. Suddenly, the price of soybeans plummeted (due, it was later revealed, to a rumor planted by unscrupulous dairy- heir that tofu actually came from between the toes of Himalayan hikers). Swami frantically tried to call Yuan Tibet for his sage advice, but he could not be found. Tragically, there had been some prophet-taking on Wall Street, somebody took him, and he was never heard from again.

Swami's fortunes fell just as the last slew of credit card bills arrived, and he found himself in the midst of a near-debt experience. He was a fiscal wreck. His whole world had come crashing down in one swell poop, and as is often the case, he sought meaning in the midst of tragedy. He stood in Central Park, shaking his fist at the sky and shouting, "What is the MEANING of this?"

Well then the most amazing thing happened (for the complete account, you will have to read Swami's new book, Duck Soup For The Soul). But to make a long satori short, Swami was struck by enlightning during a brainstorm, his clown chakra opened, and now he sees funny. Since that time, Swami has traveled the world preaching FUNdamentalism -- accent on Fun. He has become a well-known figure in the Humor Potential Movement, helping folks release jestive blockages such as irregularhilarity, irony deficiency, humorrhoids and yes, even truth decay.

While Swami has no followers per se (he says he gets paranoid when he thinks he's being followed), he does train comic-kazis in the ancient Chinese path of Fu Ling. "To live in this world," the Swami says, "you must be able to take a joke. And if you can leave a few as well, all the better."

ONE GREAT DREAM OF A SINGLE DREAMER

by Paul Levy

The Buddha, which literally means "the awakened one," said "My form appeared like a dream to sentient beings who are like a dream. I taught them dreamlike teaching to attain dreamlike enlightenment." When we begin to awaken to the dreamlike nature of reality, we realize we are all characters in each other's dream. Like reflections in a mirror, we are all interconnected aspects of each other's being. To recognize the dreamlike nature of our situation is to recognize that we don't exist as isolated entities separate from the universe, but rather, as relational beings who only exist relative to each other. We are all related, parts of a greater family, the living multifaceted expression of a singular divine being. When we begin to awaken to the dreamlike nature of the universe we realize that the "dream ego," which is who we've been imagining we are is only an un-reflected upon and assumed model of who we are and is not who we really are, but is itself being dreamed by a deeper part of ourselves.

There is a deeper Self which is dreaming us. Like emanations of a meditating Buddha, we are the dream of something deeper, what I call the "deeper, dreaming Self," which is who we really are. There's only one deeper, dreaming Self and it is dreaming the whole universe. We are its dream. The deeper, dreaming Self expresses itself through and is not separate from the forms of the dream; we are simultaneously the dreamed and the dreamer. In the words of the late mythologist Joseph Campbell, "one great dream of a single dreamer in which all the dream characters dream, too." The deeper, dreaming Self is having a dream, and we are it!

Waking up to our identity with the deeper, dreaming Self, we snap out of the self-perpetuating, egoic delusion that we exist in a way in which we simply, in reality, do not. The question then becomes: how do we best serve who we have now discovered ourselves to be? How does the deeper, dreaming Self which is dreaming us want us to dream itself into incarnation? How does the dream itself want to unfold through us?

People who are imagining that if they became lucid in the dream they would become a billionaire, or lose twenty pounds, or something of that nature are still caught in the dream of ego which imagines itself its own master. They are still attached to, animating and monopolizing a deluded identity of being the commander-in-chief, the one in charge, which is the ultimate power trip. Trying to manipulate the dream is a compensation for and expression of the fear of the separate self. In attempting to control the dream, one is still acting out of an assumed reference point where one imagines oneself to be an objectively existing entity whose situation is seemingly binding and problematic and whose agency is apparently separate from the whole.

Both the dreams of our ego and the dream of the deeper, dreaming Self, when invested with our attention, can materialize in, as and through our lives. The difference is that when we dream up our egoic fantasy into reality, it doesn't ultimately alleviate our suffering, but rather, reinforces it. When we are the vessel for the dream of the deeper, dreaming Self to incarnate, however, we have gotten out of our own way and become an instrument serving the whole. The energetic expression of this realization is compassion, the hallmark of lucidity. The whole universe, which we are a part of and not apart from, heals itself in the process.

Awakening in and embracing the dream, instead of trying to strategize and control the dream, we can get in phase with each other, I imagine, and co-operatively offer ourselves in service to the highest intent of the deeper, dreaming Self, whatever that may be. Our awakening is always a mutual and reciprocally shared co-awakening due to our infinite interconnectedness. Moved by something greater than our imagined self, we become an instrument of something much vaster than our own limited version of ourselves. Recognizing the dreamlike nature is the very act which empowers us to become in-sync lucid dreamers who can change the world. To quote an indigenous elder, one who is fluent in the dreamtime, "There's a dream dreaming us, and we must get back to that dream, and the vision, the power, and the energies at the disposal of man's dreaming self will help us to win the battle."

Paul Levy is an artist and a spiritually-informed political activist. A pioneer in the field of spiritual emergence, he is a healer in private practice, assisting others who are also awakening to the dream-like nature of reality.

PEOPLE OF THE LIE: A GOLD STANDARD BANKING SYSTEM; HISTORICAL PLANS OF BLACK AND WHITE

By Patrick H. Bellringer, Updated Dec. 21, 2008

THE PLAN OF ORIGIN

From its inception the Constitution of the United States of America has set forth the requirement for this "one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all" to have, without question, a monetary system of value and not worthless fiat paper money based on nothing. This same Constitution demands that the monetary system of the U.S. of A. be backed completely by gold and/or silver of fine minted purity, the value of which is to be held securely stable against fluctuations and market manipulations. Such a standard gives real value to all financial transactions, to paper currency and to all wages, goods and services, and holds them stable against inflation or deflation in value. Such a monetary system allows for steady economic growth because the money value does not fluctuate. The money supply changes only as rapidly as the gold and silver backing this system is increased or decreased.

The banker can loan only the amount of money equal to the gold/silver he holds in his depositories, minus that which he needs for daily public operations. The banker's profits are based mainly on a small percentage (not more than 10%) of the profits generated by the business operation of the borrower. Such loans are made for the purpose of creating a profit to be shared by both borrower and lender. Should such a loan not generate a profit but only a loss for any given year, the banker would receive no profit return but only the repayment of the original loan as scheduled.

Such an arrangement, as just described, quickly convinces the banker of the need for him to become the businessman's friend and advisor rather than his adversary, if he wishes any return on his business loans. Because no interest/usury is allowed under a "gold" monetary system, for other loans such as on houses or cars, a banker may charge a money-use fee (not more than 10%), which is paid by the borrower at the beginning of a loan repayment schedule. All later loan payments are solely on the loan principal itself.

This is the monetary system envisioned and implemented by the founders of this nation and the signers of the Constitution of the U.S. of A. When England lost the War of Independence with "her" American colonies in 1783, King George III of England was quoted as saying, "We may have lost the colony, but we will get her back." Plans were immediately made to that end.

THE PLAN OF DARKNESS

The struggling American union of united states never was able to create the monetary system as completely as they had envisioned. Initially, they had to merge the separate currencies and monetary values of individual states into a single currency with a set value. England's interference in the American financial and political systems did not end with the Revolutionary War. By the early 1800's England's incursion into American politics had become so threatening as to cause the Union of American States to ratify Amendment 13 of the Constitution of the U. S. of A.

This Amendment stated that no person holding any title of nobility (esquire-attorney, doctor, clergyman, etc.) could hold any public office in any part of the government of the U. S. of A. These titles of nobility were authorized under the Crown of England for citizens of England and, therefore, the holders of such were foreign agents in America. Angered by such action by "her colony" of America against her, England in the War of 1812 burned the American White House and the Library of Congress to destroy the records of the original 13th Amendment to the Constitution of the U. S. of A. From this point forward the original 13th Amendment lay buried in history.

The struggle with England and the influence of her "foreign agents" of nobility continued and increased in America in the succeeding years. The master plan to "take back the colony" was gradually being implemented. The prime thesis of this plan had been proven many times before in the expansion of the British Empire. That thesis simply stated is, "Divide and Conquer". The conquering of America militarily had been tried and had failed. Americans were a very determined people to free themselves of England's physical/military control over them. They were not to be conquered. Henceforth England changed her strategy to "divide and control", and England was just as determined as ever to control American politics and finance. In fact, the English bankers did not really care about American politics, for if they controlled the American financial arena, they then controlled the destiny of the nation.

Contrary to the historical record of the American scene during the mid-1800's, slavery was not a critical national issue. In all states slavery was being resolved gradually through education and a changing of attitudes. England saw the slavery issue in America as its greatest opportunity yet to "divide and control the colony." The English bankers funded General Albert Pike, the founder of the Ku Klux Klan in America and an initiator of the Scottish Right Templar Masonic Order in the southern states. These racist hate organizations literally created the slavery issue in the U. S. of A. and brought on the "Civil War" which followed. To divide the "Union" would allow the English banks to conquer all. When the war between the states was lost to their cause, the bankers funded the "carpet-baggers" to rape the southern states in order to re-supply the banking war coffers.

Two bits of historical Truth should be added at this point in our discussion. First the Union nearly lost the war to the bankers. The tide was turned only when President Abraham Lincoln called upon his friend, the Czar of Russia, for help. The Czar ordered a fleet of ships to be placed in the harbors of San Francisco and New York City, and then gave orders for both England and France to "back off" or they would have serious consequences. Secondly, Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation to free the slaves was followed by a second 13th Amendment to that effect. The English historians and other American foreign agents make no mention of the original 13th Amendment to remove themselves from power and control in America. The English bankers under the authority of the Crown of England simply marched forward to their next phase in the plan of "taking back the American Colony".

America was struggling with war debt. Lincoln printed the "Lincoln green backs" in his plan to move back to a gold-backed currency to place the banking system back under the U.S. Constitution and the control of the Congress and to bring both value and stability to the chaotic financial system. The bankers, now nearly completely controlled by England, were furious. They ordered Lincoln assassinated, and that he was, by their own paid henchman, John Wilkes Booth. Booth was well paid for his assassination act and lived a long life in England while a local vagrant found in a hay-barn was innocently charged, sentenced and hung for the evil deed.

The world controllers, who are money controllers, who are bankers, love war because they hold the power to manipulate the outcome, and they always gain great wealth from both sides of the fray. The first world banker's war is referred to by historians as World War I. This war was fought during the years 1914-1918. The bankers of the British Empire, who controlled this war used it as a decoy to finally take back the "American colony". They had laid their plans well by putting foreign agents in place in America's banks, Congress, and Justice System.

Their plan was three-fold. First, in 1913 the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed by the Congress but was never ratified by the States. This Amendment, though totally illegal under the U.S. Constitution, gave the Congress the power to collect income tax from the citizens of the states. To do so a foreign corporation chartered under the Crown of England was established. It was called the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and its agents under the authority of the "Crown" began collecting illegal taxes from the American citizens.

Under the Constitution of the Republic of the U. S. of A., the federal government can collect no direct tax from any citizen, yet the 16th Amendment was passed to allow such tax. The Federal Government can only tax the various states by excise tax to fund the federal government, or if needed by an apportionment tax based upon a state's population. The apportionment tax has never been used because the rich would be taxed as well as the poor. The taxes collected by the IRS flow to the Crown of England and are not used to fund the Federal Government or to pay off the national debt.

Secondly, in 1913 a foreign corporation chartered under the Crown of England called the American Bar Association (ABA) was established in the U.S. The ABA is a foreign private club for the purpose of training and controlling all members of the legal profession, and its members are endowed with the title of nobility, Esquire. Members of the "Bar" become British foreign agents with allegiance to England.

The third phase of the 1913 plan was carried out two days before Christmas. On December 23, 1913 while the American Congress was in recess for the Christmas holidays, a few selected congressional traitors by voice vote to avoid any record, illegally passed the Federal Reserve Act. This put in place a private foreign banking system in America which replaced the Treasury banking system required by the Constitution of the Republic of the U. S. of A. This was a credit money system of paper currency with no collateral backing. The new Federal Reserve Banking System (FRB) was a twin to the IRS and was also a foreign corporation chartered under the Crown of England.

Under the U.S. Constitution the Congress is to have complete control over the nation's monetary system and money supply. The Federal Reserve Act did away with that concept and the FRB now controls the money supply by printing more money or withdrawing money at will. The national debt is nothing more than the interest charged by the FRB to the Federal Government (U.S. tax payers) on the paper money they have printed and loaned to the Federal Government for use by the people/taxpayers. The FRB does this under the authority of the Crown and Queen of England.

The FRB could now print money and control the money supply. The bankers could control or cause inflation and deflation. They could charge interest/usury and extend credit to any desired limit. They could now take the gold and silver away from the people. They could now manipulate the stock market and steal vast sums from the people. The First World War provided both a distraction to the Americans concerning the "British cancer in their land, and a trial run for the English foreign agent attorneys, bankers, politicians, and tax collectors in their "American colony".

As the stage was now set they crashed the stock market in 1929 in preparation for total control of the American financial system and the confiscation of the people's gold. In 1933 under the banker's puppet, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, bankruptcy of the government of the noble Republic of the U. S. of A. was declared. At the same time Roosevelt changed one sentence of the War Power's Act of 1917 to place all citizens as enemies of the government of Washington, D.C. National bankruptcy removes the American citizen from the protection of the U. S. Constitution, as does the now amended War Power's Act of 1917. As an American citizen you may believe today that you have no rights under the Constitution of the U. S. of A.

You are quite correct! To assure that this is so, each U. S. president has declared the nation under a "national emergency". Under "national emergency" the War Power's Act places the nation under military rule and sets aside the Bill of Rights and the U. S. Constitution. Each succeeding U. S. President uses various conflicts, Korea, Vietnam, Bosnia, Kosovo and now Afghanistan and Iraq as rational to support a "national emergency". Therefore, conflicts are needed and encouraged to maintain military control, where the people, if it should be needed, have no rights at all.

The gold-fringed flag which flies in every courtroom today, public places and nearly every church is evidence that America is under military rule. This flag is the flag of the military, of admiralty law of the high seas. The people have no rights today when they go into court because they as civilians are seeking justice in a military court where the Bill of Rights and U.S. Constitution are not recognized.

In 1935 President Roosevelt ordered the confiscation of all gold in America. Any citizen could keep no more than $29.00 in gold. The U.S. operated on a dual banking system from 1913 to 1935 using both U.S. treasury gold and silver certificates and worthless Federal Reserve notes as currency. Some silver backed the nation's currency until the Richard Nixon era, when the U. S. was removed completely from the silver standard. The Federal Reserve now had full control over America's monetary system using their fiat paper notes of credit. The international bankers had created the banker's second global conflict (1941-1945) right on schedule, also known as World War II, and had implemented their final phase for world control by establishing the United Nations organization in 1945. The United Nations headquarters were located in New York City, in the financial "heart" of the British American colony. England and her international bankers had not only gotten their American colony back, but also had gained nearly full control over the world's financial system. The FRB and its thirteen controlling families over the course of the last fifty years have controlled the price of gold and silver on the world market, have controlled the world's economy, and have orchestrated the rise and fall of many nations.

Only a few people have spoken out against Britain's world domination, and fewer still have risked their lives to attempt to thwart such awesome power. One such person was U. S. President, John F. Kennedy. In an attempt to bring back the gold standard in America, Kennedy had printed new gold/silver certificates. At the return from his Dallas, Texas trip Kennedy planned to order the change back to the gold standard banking system and the demise of the CIA. The CIA had become traitorous to the Republic. Knowing this, the CIA assassinated John F. Kennedy during his motorcade trip through Dallas. The CIA agent and driver of Kennedy's car shot him in the head and killed him. A second person who planned to put the U. S. back on the gold system of banking was U. S. President Ronald Reagan. Again, the CIA shot and killed Ronald Reagan and wounded Brady, a body guard. Reagan was cloned and continued in office as a controlled clone without the public's knowledge.

THE PLAN OF LIGHT

There were those who knew of the darkside's plans but most felt helpless to challenge such adversaries. There were a few who laid plans in wisdom in the 1950's and acted covertly to de-rail the evil "steamroller" of British control over her "American colony."

Due to the risk of exposure to the darkside, few names will be used in the following partial revelation of the "Plan of Light." The Plan was formulated in the late 1950's by a small group of civilians and top ranking active and retired military personnel. A few politicians and business people assisted. At some point a four-star U.S. Army general (General A) was able to gain the title and responsibility as "receiver" for the United States bankruptcy. As part of the Plan, General A approached the U.S. Supreme Court for their promise to honor his class action suit against the U.S. Federal Government, should he be successful in bringing such a suit into their jurisdiction. The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to do so. Gen. A began at state district court and by the repeating process of losing the case and appeal, over time he reached the U.S. Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld Gen. A's suit and the legal action was moved to the Senate Finance Committee (Senator Sam Nunn). As a result of covert congressional action and political pressure, President George H.W. Bush issued an Executive Order in 1991. This E.O. was never challenged and, therefore, became law under USC 18. 519 & 520. Buried in the footnotes the record stands that any meritorious claim against the government under the established guidelines and original claim format of the case, must be paid by the Federal Government to the claimant.

It should be noted here that under the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, all present and succeeding debt and claims against the Treasury of the U.S. would be assumed by the FRB. Thus, the obligation was to the FRB to pay any claims generated by Gen. A's Plan. Under the Plan, should enough claims be filed, such action could "break" the FRB. This could allow the U.S. Treasury to move back to a U.S. Constitutional mandated gold banking standard. The real key to "breaking" the FRB was that these claims had to be paid out in gold! Therefore, the banking system would have to be under a gold standard in order to pay out such claims, and this would force the FRB to bring back the gold they had stolen from the people.

Gen. A and his people set about quietly educating the public through public seminars concerning the illegal FRB and its fiat credit money system. Reconstruction claims could be made on the basis of loans and any credit extended by a bank or other financial institution and all interest paid, loss of property through foreclosure and resulting loss of income, any attorney or court fees, loss of reputation, IRS taxes or liens, real estate and property taxes, and mental and emotional stress caused by loss of property and income from such foreclosure. Stress related illness, death, suicide, loss of companionship, divorce, loss of education, miscarriage, and medical and hospital expenses could be claimed. In many cases, warrants, incarceration and probation could also be claimed.

In the 1980's and early 1990's several groups of economically disadvantaged people were targeted and claim filings were made against the U.S. Treasury. The last group of claims to be honored by the U.S. Treasury were from the agriculture sector of the U.S. Thousands of farmers and business people had lost their farms and businesses through the unconstitutional FRB use of credit money and usury. Needless to say, the foreign agents of the CIA, FBI, SEC, BATF, SS, and IRS worked hard to stop Gen. A and his people. Raids were made, claims and property were confiscated and destroyed, and many program educators were imprisoned. Gen. A was harassed and, though highly protected by military personnel, was finally arrested, imprisoned, killed by injection and cloned. His clone was used by the darkside as a decoy to stop any further filing of claims. Yet, thousands of claims had been filed with the U.S. Treasury amounting to trillions of dollars. These claims are to be paid in gold under a gold standard system and are to provide the collateral (gold) needed to support the new gold banking system.

On June 3, 1993 U.S. Attorney General, Janet Reno, gave the order for a gold standard banking system to be established in the U.S. to replace the Federal Reserve System. Soon, thereafter, Janet Reno was killed and cloned by the darkside and continued with her duties as U.S. Attorney General as a puppet of the darkside. Secretary of the U.S. Treasury Robert Rubin was also cloned and Reno and Rubin received their salaries from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as foreign agents and not from the U.S. Treasury.

Behind the scenes the Plan continued to be carried out. Bloodshed and any major revolution within the U.S. was to be avoided at all costs. Some Delta Force and Navy Seals personnel were utilized to covertly recover gold from Switzerland, England, Israel, the Far East, NYC, etc. that had been stolen from the people of the U.S. and the U.S. Treasury. Much of the recovered gold was placed under military guard inside the NORAD Complex at Colorado Springs, CO. During the last decade of the 20th Century, the English bankers of Rothchilds, Rockefellers, Morgans, and many others located around the globe have fought hard to maintain their economic strangle hold on the world's economy and especially upon their "American colony". Their strong arms of the Federal Reserve Bank, the IMF and World Bank have used every trick known to maintain economic control. In spite of their efforts, they are losing the war.

THE FINALE

The world community is awakening to such deceit. Third world countries such as Malaysia are figuring out the darkside's game-plan and have stopped the IMF from raping their assets. The Islamic community has always had a gold standard monetary system and over time has withstood many harsh attacks from the fiat money bankers and their "banker-wars". African and South American countries have been devastated by the IMF-World Bank Cartel and are now banding together to help defeat the International Banking Cartel. The Queen of England has carried her "crown-power" too far and has exploited too many countries. The balance of power has reached the end of its evil stroke, and the pendulum is now swinging back. More than 180 countries now stand ready on this planet to move together into a world-wide gold-based monetary system. A very long sequence of darkside events has brought this about. The greatest obstacle to such change since 1993 has been the English bankers, their FRB which spans the world, and their 13 controlling families.

The FRB's "nightmare" is the concept of "Jubilee", a biblical term involving the forgiveness of debt. Under the Constitution of the Republic of the U. S. of A., it is illegal to have credit money and to loan credit because the bankers provide no collateral of real value to back their worthless system. To change back to a value-based money system, all debt owed to the FRB would be dismissed. Thus, all car loans, credit card debt, house mortgages, business loans and other credit extended by the FRB would be declared forgiven and uncollectable. This is the concept of Jubilee which the bankers have fought furiously for seven long years. The English Bankers lose all, should their system be changed. And they have lost! And the Queen of England now knows that she has lost---all!

There has been divine intervention in the recovery of this great nation, the only nation in this present civilization to be established as a Republic (not a democracy) with its Constitution based upon the Laws of God and the Laws of Creation. For many years the bankers had raped the people of the world by stealing their wealth. This wealth the bankers would invest in their money-games. One such game was called the "Roll Program", wherein the money was used to give a 30% return in a single month by stealing the wealth of under-developed countries. These money-games were closely guarded by the rich and none of the masses, the goyim-cattle, were to ever be allowed into them. In the 1980's a strange phenomenon occurred. In many countries and especially the U.S. multi-level marketing (MLM) by telephone became very popular. For the first time a "little" person could create a legitimate MLM program and reap large financial rewards in a very short time. Some MLM persons became wealthy, and someone somewhere allowed a rich MLM person to play in the banker's money-games. Big mistake! Any successful MLM person will immediately share a new venture with his friends. Consequently, the "Roll Program" money-game got out to the goyim and spread to many countries before it was stopped by the banker-controllers. The problem the bankers now have is that, if they are to be paid their money from these "Roll-Programs", the goyim must be paid as well. These "Roll-Program" funds are also legitimate claims due and owing against the "system" and are to be paid in gold when the new gold standard is again established.

This will allow the "little" people to recover from the poverty and illness perpetrated upon them, and in turn to assist in the economic and social recovery of nations. Some of these 70+ "roll programs" by name are Bergevene, Savage, SBC-Warchest, SBC-Charcoal, ITI, Alpha, Omega, Treasurygate, and Morgan. Let us hope that the people will be guided by wisdom in their use of such funds. The darkside stands ready to take it all away again.

Will a worldwide banking change really occur? Yes! The darkside cannot stop it! This is the time of re-balancing, of higher energies and frequencies on our planet and its transition into a higher dimension. Evil shall not win! God Aton of Light always wins, and the evil controllers now know that they have lost their power and control over the people.

When will this anticipated banking change happen? This depends on the freewill choices of the players. The sequence of events are now in place for that change to occur. People everywhere are waking up to the tricks and lies played upon them by the darkside. Truth can no longer be hidden.

The People of the Lie are waking up to Truth and are becoming Truth-seekers. The darkside fears those who understand the dark games played upon them, for then they have the power to change things for good. Are you waking up to the tricks played upon you as well? Are you, too, a Truth seeker and change-agent, or are you content to remain one of the People of the Lie?

DEBT REPUDIATION: IT'S TIME TO FREE YOURSELVES FROM FRAUD AND SLAVERY

I am posting this because everything he or she says about the bankers and debt is true. However, I never advocate violence, although it may be necessary without supernatural help of some kind. Some minor editing was done. Ron

Does this sound like your life? Got a mortgage? For a mcmansion that's been overpriced, and overly expensive to maintain, heat and cool? Filled it up yet with crap made overseas? Having a garage sale to make room for a fresh bunch of foreign junk? Got a auto loan for a vehicle that cost more to repair than the car you bought 10 or 20 years ago? Think it'll last long enough for you to pay off-or are you just going to get another lease? Got a wallet full of credit cards you're going to spend the rest of your life trying to pay back? Got more bills from all that debt than you got cash for, so you get a payday loan to make ends meet-so you can get gas for your SUV and eat? Got thousands more in student loans-because a college education takes a fortune-so you can afford to finance all the credit cards and the auto loans and the mortgages… and there's no work in the field you chose because all the work's gone overseas? Got a foreclosure notice from a court because you lost your job to China or India? Got a moving truck for all your made in China crap because you lost your home? Trapped, because the bankruptcy rules were changed and so now you're bound to service this debt hell and high water, even adjusting for inflation?

Wonder how did things go to hell in this country? Thank a banker.

BANKERS SET YOU UP

International bankers influence government policy… meaning they control a lot more than what interest rate they charge. They control their banks through seats on the boards of directors of the major banking firms, and through stocks. The US Federal Reserve System is a private banking cartel illegally given government license. Bankers and their minions(they don't have "friends")determine how many laws you live under, how they're configured to shape and influence your life. Since their overthrow of the US government in 1913 with the Federal Reserve Act and the unratified 16th Amendment that illegally allows income taxes the bankers have run America into the ground. They've rigged the regulations and economics so that America has been subjected to repeated, artificially manipulated boom and bust economic cycles that serve to manipulate government policy, and public opinion as the bankers see fit. America has been emptied of it's domestic industries. You can hardly even start up a "mom and pop" small business and have much hope of success. They can't survive in a economy deliberately being destroyed.

Want to try a major industrial effort like steel or manufacturing? Better be a multinational conglomerate.

Bankers determine who gets the deals, the loans. No, not you, nor anyone you might know. But to those that are "in" with these parasites, that go along with either franchising some megacorporate chain store, or a merger that winds up shipping middle class jobs overseas and having literally slaves do the work, or robbing small family farmers and independent businesses of their homes, land, and livelihoods...you're golden!

Bankers set the controls, the inputs and outputs of their society. We just try to survive in it, but we've had any opportunity to advance ourselves systematically robbed from us. What are we left with? Working as an "associate" for some franchise store, picking cotton, lettuce and apples at a corporate run farm, or maybe you're just ass-out at a temp firm.

So how do you get that "murkan dream"? Get some banker's loans and credit cards. Salve the pain you feel in your heart about the crap deal you're getting from the bankers and do some shopping-becoming even more their slave. Except it's not a dream you can actually attain, it's a myth passed down from your parents and grandparents who were weaned of their self-reliance and responsibility-domesticated by massah state and massah corporation. America's their plantation.

Their chains are the debt they make you obligated to pay back-in spite of everything they've done to enslave you. It's the ingrained obedience to anyone in a thousand dollar(current value)suit and their lawyers and bill collectors that ultimately binds you. Not losing your home or your car. And you're going to lose it, when the bankers finance your employer to ship the factory you work overseas, or that franchise store you work at shuts down because of falling profits-because everyone else's job's been shipped overseas.

Do you know what those parasites, those TRAITORS do with the loan they make you spend a lifetime paying back, that they generate out of NOTHING? They use it just as they would actual federal reserve notes in the bank vault; they count it as a "fractional reserve" to make more financial insturments...and generate yet more insturments from those! Collateralized debt obligations, derivatives, and probably a lot more types of banker magic "money" that they use to control or outright own every object, every institution, and everyone. Our chains of debt slavery are but the invention of their twisted, greedy little minds.

…You still think this is normal somehow? The bankers could literally transform our Earth into a paradise with all the wealth they hold, and they DO hold all of it … but this world of war and strife and suffering, disease, poverty, death: it's what they want because weak, divided people preoccupied with religious, territorial, resource and economic side-struggles of their design are too preoccupied to fight back. That includes you Mr. and Mrs. Murika: too busy gawking at Britney Spears having her last shot at a comeback blown out from under her on MTVcuz she's a basket case, to notice you could've bought everything you owned at a THIRD of what you're paying if you had done like our ancestors had done and paid up front.

Guess what? You're going to lose your job because the whole scheme is coming undone. By design; because the bankers have all the money… now they want the assets so they take the last real jobs, crash the economy and foreclose on America, sell it all off to the highest bidder. They're already stripping down old homes down to the last board and nail and reassembling them in Mexico-they'll have the last American industry be asset strippers-disassemble everything and cart if off! Maybe if you're lucky you can work for them and as you help finish off our once great nation you might be able to feed your family…

…Then again, if we're going to lose it all anyway, lets lose it on our terms. If you're gonna lose it anyway, lose it on your terms! What do I mean? Repudiate your debts and free yourself.
What are your debts but aritifices, fictions of obligation tied to crap you don't need and is shoddily made to boot? Stop paying the bills. "Are you CRAZY?!! I got this and that to pay for, and they'll come after me, and I love my junk and blah, blah, blah."

Our enemies, the international bankers, use our desires to entrap us in their imaginary chains of debt obligation. They've demonstrated they are the greatest enemy to Mankind, as they control all and set us against each other like so many toy soldiers. They thrive on destruction and enslaving others. They have a weakness and it is the same weakness with any "authority figure"; they only have the respect they are given. They only have the respect of their "authority" that WE GIVE THEM! Therefore, the "obligations" they impose on us are only as valid as the authority WE GIVE THEM!

They the bankers have committed FRAUD, unimaginable FRAUD against the entire Human Race! Therefore ANY AND ALL CONTRACTS, OBLIGATIONS, DEBTS, INSTURMENTS AND ANY AND ALL CERTIFICATES OF OWNERSHIP OR CONTROL ARE NULL AND VOID! Their imposed debts are null and void. Their "federal reserve notes" are fraudulant, therefore null and void. Their contracts are rooted in fraud, therefore are null and void. Their very lives have been spent murdering and repressing the Human Race from it's true destiny-our true destiny! Therefore their very lives are null and void. So act accordingly.

First, get ready; body mind and soul. Get in shape; eat organic foods, use a filter rated to cleanse water of chlorine, dead bacteria and flouride-the brain number.

Get right with God; you've got a purpose on this planet and it's not to catch up on who wore what at the Emmys. Hint: it has to do with those talents you've let rot because you pursued some "career" set up by some bankster scumbag. Find a quiet place. Think nothing, say nothing, don't let anyone or anything interrupt… Our Father WILL talk to you and the hard part is to LISTEN. Go from there.

Learn how to fight. Americans are trained to be dependent on the very beast for protection that enslaves them. Go to www.rwva.org to learn how to use a military pattern rifle, out to 500 meters. Go to www.awrm.org to learn how to be a soldier, because saying NO to the beast and challenging the "authority" of it's minions is a inheriently dangerous matter. Besides you might make some Friends, and you'll find out you're not alone.

Take back YOUR GOVERNMENT! It's OUR government, not the beast's! Most of the tyranny that's currently imposed by this nation's Constitutional government is through local channels, through local government. So get some people together to take over the scummiest local berg or ville and FREE it of the neomarxist oppression that characterizes current government. Get the book "How to win a local election". I cover these topics in much better detail among my various essays at http://freedomguide.blogspot.com so prepare because this is the kind of war that's preferable to flinging bullets.

"The bankers control the governments, which control the troops who man all the high tech weaponry our tax dollars pay for, and they're not going to allow this"!

That is the stumbling block. Backed into a corner like Ed and Elaine Brown the beast that is the federal government will use force-because if they don't their whole house of cards that is their "authority" will crumble forever.

It's like this; this is a war of beliefs between true human spirituality and the artifices imposed by the beast, between Freedom and slavery, between our America and the United States that has been conquering and murdering in our name, between good and evil. And this war is fought in the hearts and minds of every single person-it's a choice they must make and stick with when that moment of epiphany, of clarity comes.

What will you do Mr. and Mrs. America-while you have choices to make, income coming in, people who will buy your stuff, your home? Act fast as I write this in September, 07 because time's about out for you!

You who work at a financial institution, what will you do? What will you do to begin to atone for serving those that have enslaved the entire Human Race and have set us on a course for genocide? Will you dedicate your lives, your treasures and your sacred honor?(yes you have that in your heart, it's by Our Father and He's ready for you to embrace Him) Will you warn anyone and everyone to steer clear of the banks before they get their meathooks into them for life?

Officers, Soldiers, Agents, what will you do when your "superiors" give you orders to attack your fellow countrymen, your fellow man? You have the guns. Would you rather begin forging a real future for your children and all of Mankind by turning those guns on the minions of those who have warped everything about us? Surely a revolt is preferable to living with the damage to your very soul each time you evict a family out of their home, that they've worked their whole lives for, or murdering someone who saw through the FRAUD the bankers have committed on us all? The very FRAUD you uphold because "it's your orders"? Nazis used that same excuse at the Nuremberg Trials…

What will all of you do-those that live by the beast-when WE THE PEOPLE shake loose your mental conditioning, and rise up in an unstoppable wave of FREEDOM and overthrow your putrid slave system once and for all? I'll tell you; you'll be quickly tried, found guilty of collaborating with the enemy, and summarily hanged from the nearest tall object. Or maybe have your throat slit or something.

And to the bankers… what will you do when the last of your minions, your soldiers desert you… and Justice is coming after years of seeing all you and your gangster families have built for generations come crumbling down? You want my advice? Give up now, repent and perhaps you can have a mansion and retire in exchange for righting what you have wrought upon us.

Do it now while you still have that option. Do it now while WE THE PEOPLE might let you off so easy.

BEYOND THE AGE OF USURY

It is generally agreed that casinos should, in the public interest, be inaccessible and expensive. And perhaps the same is true of Stock Exchanges." — John Maynard Keynes

What is particularly fascinating with John Maynard Keynes is that he wrote a theory that only works on paper since it assumes that monetary, political and financial managers will never abuse the power of indebtedness. So, what to think of this worldwide credit squeeze and its implemented cure that is no more less the cause of the disease and could spiral at any moment into a 'Greater Depression'. This week Gregory Mankiw, a professor of economics at Harvard, wrote a piece in the NYTimes asking openly what Keynes would have done to deal with the crisis. Just another nice but failed attempt to praise the Keynesian fairy tales. Mankiw cites the observation which links the root cause of economic downturns to insufficient aggregate demand. What demand when the consumers are completely tapped out in the first place? How can world governments create demand when they are literally bankrupt?

World stability hangs by a thread and this illusion is now being tested, Pritchard concedes. To see what will happen next, we need to look at what is happening to the most peaceful country: Iceland. The political bubble is indeed bursting: in early December, Icelanders stormed their central bank after the realization that their country (viewed as 'The Happiest Place On Earth' - and with 0% unemployment rate) had been brought down by a wave of concealed toxic debts and CDOs coming back home to roost. They demanded the ouster of bankers responsible for the meltdown. The ouster is a very soft alternative to a life sentence in jail, which would be a lot more appropriate. Policy makers and bankers are generally untouchable. Resigning and banishment are often the worst punishments that could happen to them. How fair and impartial is this? How long will it take world citizens to realize that we're free range chickens and act against financial serfdom?

As you read this, the American bailout is reaching epic and fatal proportions of more than 8 trillion and the worst is not over yet. Actually, the current trends are already much worse than depression, though because of some banking toxic tricks and frauds, risks are being constantly shifted down the social ladder deteriorating the consumers purchasing power forever. There's nothing that can rescue the system as the crisis was built into the system itself. Although this has not been aired on any major TV broadcast, when the world Leaders got together to discuss our fate last October, they admitted to being incapable of doing anything. That we are all scr*w*d. The Australian ministerial statement by Kevin Rudd sums it up pretty well while acknowledging that the global wealth destruction amounts to $27 trillion - and that is far from over. Among many other terrifying recent events, discount window borrowing (from the Fed. Reserve) in the week ended Oct 15 averaged a record $437.5 billion per day, surpassing the $420.2 billion rate in the prior week... please note that it is not included in the cumulative 8 trillion package!

In a debt-based economy, competition translates into a 'great crash enhancer'. Take this housing bubble, its engineers, which couldn't do anything to stop the infectious exuberance, figuring that market saturation would eventually have the last word. This didn't prevent them from firmly believing that prices had some room to run up... and everybody competed to get the very last piece of the pie. What is truly outraging is that we board onto the Titanic because Credit Rating Agencies sold us a fictive 'star system', which has led us to a triple A junk status. Please watch this PBS.org video. At 9:27 minutes, you will hear:

CDOs complex securities concocted by math geniuses and PhDs ... the only problem is that they didn't have any data to rely on ... and why did they get a "go" anyway? ... because the stake$ were too huge... the more triple A debt rating products on the market the more business "they" get (paraphrasing)

Perhaps you remember my editorial - Global Junkification - mentioning that the global leverage is about $400TN or so, and that the world G.D.P less than $70TN. This big picture helps uncover the hidden goal of fractional banking and its ensuing elementary conclusion: that Fiat money, which is backed by confidence only, is designed to eliminate competition, one step at the time. Now the new scheme is the 'global currency', which is going to consolidate the field of banking even further during/after the 'Great Deleveraging'. By the way, 'deleverage' is again one of those convoluted terms invented to mask reality. Deleverage means (partial or complete) destruction of the debt-vortex unfolding with a 'domino effect'.

Intended Massive Failure

These days, capitalism bashing runs high on the agenda of many pundits, and for which they blame in the name of evil deregulation. They deliberately neglected to consider - and report - that lobbies have militated restlessly to bypass them one way or another. This real estate bubble, now bringing the financial system on its knees, was made possible with the intended failure of regulation. It was regulated to be this way.

Yes, this was an original intent and it becomes crystal clear when pondering this Visual Guide to the Financial Crisis. The elites have the habit to design laws for themselves; that is why the people get fooled every time they put faith into a ruling body. Every civilization's collapse precisely occurs because of that; yet people would rather think that what *goes up must go down* theory is beyond their control. The delusion consists in persisting that hope is key for a real change. Indeed, did we really have to wait thousands of years to find ourselves confronted to with the current events - and finally admit why hope did absolutely nothing; that We The People neglected throughout the millennia to teach a generation to the next why 'debts and consumerism' aren't bedfellows. Obviously politicians never made it a specific educational platform for high school students - instead they institutionalize blind speculation and spending when times are good and then implement the bailout of their bankrupt thinking. It thus becomes greatly ironic to listen to Sir Evelyn de Rothschild calling for action since the latter doesn't provide any solutions but altruistic half-truths and rants. For how long will this cynicism continue?

The credo of un-debt.net is 'ignorance always comes with a price tag'. It is because the Wall Streeters viewed themselves smarter that we are in this giga-mess. They banked on gullibility and it worked out as usual. Exactly, as usual. Charles Mackay described in his 1841 book, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, that what is happening today is nothing new. Rogoff's Harvard has identified 148 crises since 1870 in which a country experienced a cumulative decline in gross domestic product (G.D.P.) of at least 10 percent, Niall Ferguso contends.

So there have been 148 crises over a 140-year period and people don't still get it? How couldn't this be an incentive to warn populations when bubbles are forming? Should we really believe Greenspan when he says the Fed can only identifies a bubble when it has popped and intervene to clean up the mess? The crowds are just too mesmerized by the 'Golden Boys' way of life to see the trap they keep falling into every now and then - confusing debts with assets and otherwise. Now that it all becomes clearer, who will give to charity WHEN 60% of the population becomes poor overnight and another 30% can barely survive? Meanwhile, Businessweek praises the 50 Top American Givers without even asking where did charity lead us since the U.S Gov't found out that child hunger rose 50% In 2007 and that we are now staring into the abyss?

World of the Big Rich Collapses ... What Nuclear Option?

"The most hated sort of wealth getting and with the greatest reason, is usury, which makes a gain out of money itself and not from the natural object of it. For money was intended to be used in exchange but not to increase at interest. And this term interest, which means the birth of money from money is applied to the breeding of money because the offspring resembles the parent. Wherefore of all modes of getting wealth, this is the most unnatural." -- Aristotle (1258b Politics)

From one extreme to the other: in the sweatshop parallel universe, Chinese authorities ready themselves for mass social unrest. In a blunt statement, the chairman of China's largest sovereign wealth said that China won't rescue Western banks. There too, the government has decided to embark on a spending highway with £373bn bailout package, and this may also imply the eventual dumping of the nefarious US dollar already affecting the rich city of Dubai where speculators are throwing in the towel as a lending drought bursts 'Desert Bubble'. The most comedic element in this grand scale drama is the story of Donald Trump who sues the banks for $3BN for having failed to foresee the housing collapse that is now damaging his reputation in order to avoid the $40M he owes in banking interests.

In the Vanity Fair December issue, a columnist wrote an extremely well articulated piece, which also reveals the latest estimate of jobs New York is going to lose, both on and off Wall Street, amounting to 160,000 to start with. Michael Shnayerson's intro reads like a hook scene:

... Even many of the wealthiest players are retrenching. Others, like the Lehman Brothers bankers who borrowed against their millions in stock, have lost everything. Hedge-fund managers try to sell their luxury homes, while trophy wives are hocking their jewelry. The pain is being felt on St. Barth's and at Sotheby's, on benefit-gala committees and at the East Hampton Airport, as the world of the Big Rich collapses, its culture in shock and its values in question.

Last week Bernanke said that he was not against the possibility to drive interest rates down to near zero if necessary but urged decisive action to protect the economy... the meaning of this can be found in the reason why The BofE contemplates radical plans to inject cash directly into the economy – the nuclear option - to be used only when interest rates approach zero; an action seconded by President Jean-Claude Trichet, hinting in the press conference to announce the ECB's 75 basis point rate cut that it may also consider "nuclear options".

The term **nuclear** ought to be taken literally in this particular case. If a well-known market guru such as Marc Farber didn't let himself be duped, it should scare the hell out of you. In a recent CNBC interview, an outraged Farber calmly explained what the stakes were, as concluding that world central bankers were merely imploding the world economy.

Beyond The Age Of Usury

Because the very premise of 'usury' creates endless inflation, which in turn reduces the purchasing power, extreme materialism dismantles the fabric of societies: everybody prioritizes the need for cash to the detriment of communities, neglecting friends and family. This causes the goods and services to multiply endlessly since people are too busy to chase money - but what for in the end? As for the corporations, they do not see any incentives in creating long-term perspectives: when 'loans' are so easily available and knowing that more voracious competitors will borrow to take over whatever natural resources, there is no time to lose! Polluting nature, cartelizing the means of production, human exploitation, bribery, collusion to maximize earnings are not diseases but symptoms. This all highlights the gap between people's creativity and their needs. We are truly heading toward a terrifying and inevitable crisis of civilization and this is our very last warning before being plunged into an era where money and food will be scarce for many years to come. Wars may well be the only weapons of unethical governments if civil unrest on a large scale threatens their very existence; they will resort to armed conflicts, which will have been financed by their taxpayers. Yes, you got it: usury also allows killings and destruction to be a lot more devastating. Contrary to the popular belief, money is not the root of all evil; but usury is.

THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

By Israel Shamir, December 8, 2008

Israel Shamir, is one of best-known and most respected Russian Israeli writers and journalists. He wrote for Haaretz, BBC, Pravda, and translated Agnon, Joyce, and Homer into Russian. He lives in Tel Aviv and writes a weekly column in the Vesti, the biggest Russian-language paper in Israel.

Among the colourful revellers of Allenby Street, in the crowded restaurants of merry-making Tel Aviv nights, a vision came to me, a vision of an angel in battle-dress, chalking up on a wall three words, Mene, Tekel ufarsin. My Angel-English on-line dictionary prompts a translation: you were tested and you failed the test. [those three words are the "handwriting on the wall" in Aramaic in Daniel 5:25-29--CHM]

These are the darkest days for the people of Israel. They are dark, as the lamentations and protests of us and our fathers turned out to be as genuine as a three-dollar bill. In 1968, a young Jewish Russian kid, I wrote on the walls of my native Russian city, 'Hands off Czechoslovakia'. The beautiful deep voice of a Jewish Russian poet Alexander Galitch intoned: Citizens, our motherland is in danger, our tanks are on foreign soil! Some Russian Jews demonstrated on the Red Square against the invasion, and were beaten up by the police. We protested against the presence of the Russian tanks in Budapest, Prague and Kabul as Russian citizens who value honour above ill-understood loyalty, humankind above blood ties. In the same time, Jewish American kids demonstrated against their country's intervention in Vietnam, while Jewish boys and girls in Europe fought against racism.

Years passed by, and now our Jewish tanks are on foreign soil. Our Jewish army murders civilians, demolishes houses, starves millions and imposes sieges on Palestinian villages. Our crimes have exceeded the Russian crimes committed in Chechnya and Afghanistan, the American crimes in Vietnam and Serb crimes in Bosnia. Surely, the Israeli intellectuals demonstrate en masse on our equivalent of Pennsylvania Avenue or Trafalgar Square, American Jews raise their voice against the America-armed killers of Palestinians; Russian Jews speak up for the human rights of the enslaved Gentiles of the Holy Land? No, I fear, our literati exalt the courage of our Jewish soldiers, venerate the steady hand of our Jewish snipers and glorify the immense humanity of the Jewish folk, who could pulverise all the Gentiles of Palestine, but kindly limit ourselves to a few hundred wounded and maimed a day.

My grandfather in the Pale of Settlement complained against the restrictions of the free movement of Jews in the Russian Empire, while in our generation Anatoli Sharansky became a symbol of struggle for human rights. In our own country, the Gentiles are fenced into reservations and concentration camps that the Pale pales in comparison with. A Palestinian cannot go to the next village without the Jewish ausweis, he is forever checked by our Checkists. He can only dream of the sea, washing the shores of his ancestral home - we do not let Palestinians to pollute the Jewish purity of our beaches.

For years, the Jews protested the discrimination in employment and education. In our own state we created the system of total national discrimination. In our state-owned Electric company, out of 13,000 employees there are six Gentiles. 0,0004%. Gentiles form forty percent of the population between the Jordan River and the sea, but only one out of four has the right to vote. There are no Gentiles in the Supreme court, in the government, in the Air Force, in the secret services. There is not even one Gentile on the board of the main Israeli Liberal newspaper, Haaretz. That is why all the complaints of Jews in the Diaspora deserve to be re-written in the light of the events. We did not fight for the human rights, but for the rights of Jews. We were for the freedom of movement and freedom of choice - for Jews only. We spoke of the universal suffrage, but we meant the right of vote for Jews only. We do not mind occupation and invasion, as long as we invade and occupy. The sight of a child raising hands in front of the machine-gun-toting thug grieves us only if it is a Jewish child. The Gentile child can be shot at freely.

When Bialik wrote "Devil did not invent a fit punishment for the murder of a child", he actually meant 'a Jewish child'. When he was horrified by the scenes of pogrom, he was horrified that the violence is directed against Jews. Otherwise, there is nothing wrong with pogroms per se. The Jews of Upper Nazareth just committed a pogrom of Gentiles in Nazareth , but no pogromchik was tried. Police helped them by murdering a few of the pogrom victims. Still worse were the pogroms of Ramallah and Beth Jallah, committed with the helicopter gunships and tanks. Tsarist Russia, 'the land of pogroms', was much hated by our grandfathers, and eventually destroyed by them. Still, a hundred years of Jewish pogroms caused fewer casualties than we murder in a week. The most horrible pogrom of Kishinev claimed 45 dead and 600 wounded. During the last weeks in Israel, more than 300 were killed so far and many thousands wounded. After the pogrom in Tsarist Russia, all writers and intelligentsia condemned the perpetrators. In the Jewish state, hardly a few dozens gathered at the demonstration in Tel Aviv, while the Hebrew Writers Union supported this pogrom of Gentiles. In 1991, the majority of the Russian Jews took a stand against communism and for private ownership. They actually had in mind Jewish private property, as we confiscate the Gentile property with the greatest of ease. Go through the best areas of Jerusalem, Talbieh, Old Katamon, Greek and German Colonies, and see the marvellous palaces. They belonged to Gentiles, Germans, Armenians, Greeks, British, Russians, Palestinians, Christian and Moslem. All of them were confiscated and given to Jews. During the last weeks, hundreds of acres of Gentile property were confiscated, and hundreds of Gentile houses seized or demolished.

Just before his arrest, the richest Russian Jewish media-lord Gusinsky came to Israel and expressed his unlimited support. At the same time he asked the world to help him in his fight with the Russian authorities who were trying to save their TV from his clutches. His support of Israel proves that Mr. Gusinsky approves confiscations on the ethnic base. He is just against the confiscations of Jewish property. He is against Jews being arrested - the Gentiles may rot in prisons forever, as it happens in the Jewish state.

In no time at all we succeeded to undermine the long-term achievements of Jews in the struggle for democracy, human rights and equality. What is it that we did not like about the German Nazis? Their racism? Our racism is not less wide-spread and poisonous. The Russian language newspaper, Direct Speech, published in Jerusalem, asked hundreds of Russian Jews about their feelings towards the Palestinians. Typical answers were: "I would kill all Arabs", "All Arabs must be eliminated", "Arabs must be expelled", "An Arab is an Arab. They have to be eliminated". I am not sure you would get better results in Germany in 1938. Even Nazis did not intend to kill their Jewish enemies until 1941. Let us put it straight, we were against racism as long as it was somebody else's racism. We were against death squads and Sonderkommando as long as they acted against us. Our own killers, our Jewish Sonderkommando is the object of our tender admiration. The Jewish state is the only place in the world possessing legitimate killer squads, embracing the policy of assassinations, practicing torture on the medieval scale. Do not worry, dear Jewish readers, we torture and assassinate Gentiles only.

We were against ghettos while we were being pushed into a ghetto. Now the most liberal Jewish plan calls for creation of a few Gentile ghettos fenced by barbed wire, surrounded by Jewish tanks and Jewish-owned factories at the fence, where the Arbeit will macht the Gentiles frei. We shall give the ghetto full independence but previously removing all sources of income and sustenance. Israelis are brainwashed from kindergarten, they are taught they belong to the Chosen People, who are Uber Alles. They were indoctrinated in the belief that the Gentiles are not fully human, and therefore they can be killed and expropriated at will. After all, Israel fulfilled one UN resolution, the one that called Zionism a form of racism. What is upsetting is that the internationalist upbringing in the Soviet Union could not withstand the poison of the Zionist propaganda of Jewish superiority. I do regret the moral collapse of my own Russian community in the Holy Land.

Now, as the angel wrote his fiery words, as prophets called the people to repent, we have the choice. We can choose the way of Nineveh, to repent, to return the stolen property, to give full equality to Gentiles, to stop discrimination and murder, and hope to be forgiven by God, if not for our sake, then for the sake of our cats and dogs. Or we can persist in our evil ways as the people of Sodom and wait for the flood of fire and burning sulphur from the angry heavens of Palestine.

THE WISDOM OF SHADOW

By Kate A. Spreckley

‘I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the Stars' - Og Mandino

As the energy of the 11:11 Stargate flows within and without, our minds begin to awaken to the change and evolution that is occurring within our consciousness. The energy is moving directly into our physical bodies activating our DNA and creating sudden awakenings, after which our reality is never the same. As our consciousness expands we are able to create clarity, healing and balance within ourselves and thus ignite the spark of Divine Life that is hidden deep within our Soul.

This is an essential time of revelation and insight and as we journey into the recesses of our unconscious mind we are able to facilitate the birth of our inner knowledge, that which will lay the foundation for our enlightened future. We have arrived at a powerful place in our evolutionary process and if we heed the call for transition and transformation, opening our hearts and souls to the beauty within, we shall set in motion the changes needed in our world.

It is due to our own efforts and strength of will that we now have the freedom to be fully awake. New aspects of Spiritual insight will be swiftly integrated and as we embody the truth of real love our ability to serve our world with greater compassion will come to the fore.

At this point in our evolutionary cycle we are returning to our natural state of connection with the deeper aspects of ourselves and our Creator, we are moving towards our fullest development and bringing higher consciousness into our physical realms and thus creating an enlightened reality.

It is time for us to take full responsibility for our purpose and to apply it to the new levels of awareness that we are accessing. In this way our creations, body, mind and heart are able to express the Divine in each and every moment.

As we surrender to the Divine within, unraveling and unmasking our true nature, we are required to let go of the illusion of self that we have created. The result of this can be a deep form of Spiritual suffering and it is therefore imperative that we enter this path of awakening through love.

As we clear the demons of our unconscious we wake from the dream of our lives and discover the root of our suffering. Whilst releasing the residue of our past we bring our fears to light enabling us to release the subliminal forces of negativity that have been held within our Soul.

As we move from being motivated by fear and the instinctual drive for survival, our sense of identity shifts to our Soul/Spirit self embodied by unconditional love and understanding. In parting the veils of our illusions we move into the deep embrace of our Creator extending ourselves into the realms of compassion, love, respect and honour.

It is not always easy to free ourselves from the confines of fear and doubt, that false promise of safety and security. But it is time to release the old and to free ourselves from the ancient chains of fear, guilt, denial and shame, to forgive ourselves and to allow our Soul the freedom to rise up and to claim our birthright.

To be receptive to change we must understand that only by allowing for transformation and rebirth to occur will our hopes and desires manifest. By surrendering inwardly to the areas in our lives that are in need of healing, compassion and restructure, we shall receive subtle insights and messages that will be necessary for our integration and wholeness.

Our genuine mission is to reveal our hidden Divinity and to serve as a living link between Heaven and Earth, allowing for the passion of our Soul to be understood and realized. By undoing the habitual patterns of the human consciousness at the collective level we are helped to understand the deepest meaning of our personal suffering and we are assisted in ascending to our truest calling, that of service to our Planet.

As we purify ourselves and strengthen our connection to our Creator's selfless service and unconditional love, we are called to enter into the inner sanctuary of our Soul and to resurrect the Divine love and compassion held therein. Moving through the suffering and hardship we have experienced, we are shown the journey of our Soul and offered the understanding that all aspects of life are sacred and it is in the weaving of the dark and the light within ourselves that we will find our wholeness.

By unblocking our patterns of self limitation and stagnation, our Soul is able to be repatterned and reconnected to our true, cosmic origins. We will be inspired to new heights of beauty and grace, awakening the ever flowing river of inspiration and restoring our path to true creativity. This will enable us to embrace our Earthly existence, unleash our unique gifts and to live life fully.

It is indeed a great privilege to be granted such an opportunity.

WE ARE GOD'S DREAM TEAM FOR PLANET EARTH

By Dieter Braun, 'Indian in the Machine', December 1, 2008

Did you know that you and I agreed to come to planet earth. We applied with God and he chose us after checking trillions upon trillions of applications. It seems that we were chosen because we are the most qualified. We are God´s dream team for planet earth.

Basically it goes like this. We agreed to accept a veil of ignorance so that we wouldn´t remember that we come from the stars and that we have a family of star beings who are monitoringour progress and cheering us on, assisting us along with God, beaming us with as much Light as we can handle.

Did you know that we trained for several lifetimes to handle planet earth. It takes special and strong souls to handle earthly life at this time. You see, you and I agreed to reincarnate onplanet earth. We chose our parents. We chose our circumstances which would help us to grow. We have chosen everything. We chose to live together with those who have forgottenpractically everything about God...but never all. Before we were born we agreed to be born on a hell planet. Earth has been satan's planet; and we need not look any further than our ownmirrors to see reminants of his handywork.

Our human species has been skillfully guided over several thousand years to create a slave race. We can see the proof in our scientific studies of humans. We know that we use only asmall portion of our brains; but no longer is this true.

Did you know that the photon belt that our solar system is going through is changing everything? Our brains are becoming active. That so called "junk DNA" that science says has nouse is, in fact, coming alive after a period of dormancy. Even our sun has been going through changes; and this has been monitored by science and governments for a long time. It's whygovernments are so controlling these days. (See: http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/environment/weather_and_climate/news.php?q=1228193975)

Did you know that we each have the power in our own hands and minds to control our health? Governments and corporations are throwing everything at us. They are brainwashingus.They are poisoning us. They are manipulating us with unseen forces like electromagnetic frequency warfare. They are doing everything to try to make us a slave race; but this cannotbe. God will NOT agree to it. We are on the trail to freedom from slavery, to freedom of thought and freedom to travel to the stars.

Did you know that in order to be powerful, we only need to accept God as our ultimate collaborator? We take a few quiet moments--just God and one's self. We tell God that we are willingto surrender to His will. We are willing to become beacons of God energy as we are designed. We are simply not designed to be dark. We challenge all those energies around us that wantus to believe that darkness is all powerful. We challenge the AntiChrist in Love. We challenge ourselves to believe in the miracles of Light. We challenge ourselves to believe in themiracle of our beingness. God asks us to see Him in each other's eyes. God sent us to be Angels to one another.

God is asking us to amplify his energies at this time. Simple, meaningful acts of God Love is what is asked of us. We requested to be here to amplify God´s Love. We do this so much moreeasily as we clean out the resistance within us. We can now see that the processed food industry has been creating resistance within us via the mass poisoning of our species and ourplanet. Since our reality is first created in the spiritual world before it's created in the physical world, the same is true for the energies that transmute all negativity on our planet.

Create your reality in the spiritual world with your ultimate collaborator first--God. God is all around us, and within us. He has waited for us to wake up with open arms for all eternity. Wewake up in this lifetime; and if we don't, we have all eternity to experience as many lifetimes as necessary. However, remember that we are God´s ultimate dream team for planet earth. All weneed is to reflect God into each other's eyes. Let´s bring each other paradise as a gift to ourselves. Let´s wake up in this lifetime.

Love,
Dieter

WHAT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION REALLY REPRESENTS

What The Obama Administration Really Represents

By Benjamin Fulford, 11-27-2008

A lot of people who hoped the election of Barak Obama meant "change" were severely disappointed at his hiring of vast numbers of Clinton administration retreads. However, the Obama administration really does represent "change;" only this change has taken place within the US secret government, according to senior sources in the Japanese secret government. What has happened is that the Rothschild faction that backed Al Gore and his global warming lie has made an alliance with the Rockefellers against the Bush Skull and Bones/ Knights Templar/Thule society faction of satanists. Another way of putting it is the followers of the tradition of Abraham have taken a stance against the followers of the tradition of Nimrod.

This should be good news for Americans and the rest of the world even though many would prefer that there be no secret government at all. It means a planned genocide has been stopped and instead we now have a real chance at world peace and the beginning of an era of unprecedented prosperity.

When George Scherff (known to us as George Bush Senior), the new Fuhrer, took over the US in the 1980's, plans resurrect the Third Reich and carry out Hitler's plan for genocide on an unprecedented scale began to be implemented. These plans are well known to those of us who have escaped the mind-slavery of the illuminati rulers. The Nazis wanted to reduce the world population to as low as 500 million people and enslave the majority of the survivors in order to ensure a "middle class lifestyle in harmony with nature" for the mostly "Aryan" survivors. The plans included artificially created diseases, starvation and a fake Armageddon known as Project Bluebeam. This, the new leading clique promises, has been cancelled.

The Obama regime will, however, retain many characteristics of the Nazi and Japanese Imperial regimes along with a Roosevelt type approach. All of these regimes ended the depression by means of massive public works. In the case of Germany the original approach, such as building the Autobahn, was a boon to the average German and Hitler became wildly popular until his crazy vision drove Germany into a ruinous war. The Japanese case was similar. Only Roosevelt tried massive development without a huge military build-up.

The general mobilization of all U.S. military veterans is designed to help kick-start a similar campaign to get the US back on a fast growth track after it goes bankrupt some time during the first half of next year. We can see this from the fact Obama has already announced a massive public works program as well as heavy investment in new energy technology. In addition, Jay Rockefeller, the new head of the Rockefeller clan (with uncle David still taking an active advisory role) also plans a massive space development campaign designed to keep the military industrial machine humming on a more peaceful note.

The more important point to remember is that global leadership is now in the hands of the G-20: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. The European Union is also a member, represented by the rotating Council presidency and the European Central Bank. This group is implementing an unprecedented campaign to change the direction this planet has been moving in.

There are many details still to be worked out though. There is still no agreement on what new currency or basket of currencies will replace the US dollar. The new head honcho of the planet, China, has allied with Brazil, Russia and India (BRIC) to push hard for a total change of global financial architecture, including a new global currency. The US is pushing to replace the dollar with the Amero while the EU is still pushing for a stronger role for the Euro despite the split between the financially weak UK and Mediterranean countries with the more prudent Germany. It is looking likely Germany may well opt to join with the BRICs, in which case the Euro and Amero will be doomed to become regional currencies. Japan, the world's largest creditor nation with a cash pile of over $6 trillion, remains a passive observer for now but will probably eventually join the BRICs once the Americans finally bow to the inevitable.

There is also still a lot of bickering over things like the need for population control and what to do about agricultural policy and the environment.

The big question mark is what sort of "artificially generated crisis" we can expect in January. My personal secret hope is that the G20 leaders will carry out the world's biggest ever inside job and create a fake Armageddon in order to prepare the people of the world psychologically for an entirely new age (not the 230-year old "New" world order).

There is still a powerful faction that wants all out war in order to preserve Anglo-European hegemony but they are unlikely to prevail this time. Although the U.S. military industrial complex wants to upgrade the war in Afghanistan, the fact that both Pakistan and the US are bankrupt means that both sides of this artificially generated war means they cannot afford to continue it.

The idea of a war against a big nation like China, which the militarist Nazi faction is still pushing for, will also not work because all war planning scenarios and war games show the result would be a disastrous defeat for the US. The best case scenario for US war planners would be destruction of the Northern hemisphere and that is not a tempting outcome to say the least.

No matter what, though, serious turbulence lies ahead as we witness the ongoing death-throes of the Anglo-American financial system. However, there can be no doubt a magnificent phoenix will arise from the ashes of the now defunct 230-year old "new world order." These are truly historical times.

HOPE-NOSIS: STARRING BARACK OBAMA AS THE NAKED EMPEROR

Note from Ron: I highly respect David Icke as one of the foremost researchers of methods used by those who want to rule the world. Most Obama supporters are clueless regarding these facts, which is why I voted for Cynthia McKinney. Whereas many of my friends are Obama supporters, and many channeled messages indicate that he is a starseed, I can only hope that there is some truth in what is being projected. However, I have not been hopenitized by the rhetoric. The wise person sees and hears more than what "they" want us to know. Pay attention, please; and pray for Divine intervention.

By David Icke

Hello all ...

I have watched with dismay this past three weeks as vast numbers of people across the world, including many who should know better, have been duped by the mind-game called Operation Obama. Even people with some understanding of the conspiracy have said things like: 'Well, at least he's not Bush' and 'Well, at least it's great to see such a new spirit of hope'.

No, he's not Bush - he's potentially far more dangerous; and what is the use of a spirit of 'hope' if it's based on a lie? In fact, what use is 'hope' at all?

Obama's wife, Michelle, who I wouldn't trust to tell me the date in a calendar factory, said that 'everything begins and ends with hope'. Utter nonsense. Hope is a meaningless emotion because its fruits are always in the future and, by definition, never in the NOW. Hope is like riding a carousel horse; no matter how fast you go you never get closer to the one in front. The idea, however, is to persuade you to stay on the horse, despite the evitable disappointment, in the 'hope' that things will change. But they don't because the very system is designed to prevent it.

That's the way 'hope' is employed by the dastardly and devious - take the crap we are giving you now in the 'hope' that things will get better (but we know they won't). Barack Obama is a purveyor of 'hope' because his masters want the people to accept what they are given now in the hope that good times will come.

Just do what we demand, oops, sorry, Barack demands, and in return he'll inspire you to hope that it is all leading to the Promised Land. It isn't, but, by the time you realise that, it's too late.

What terrifies the manipulators is that people will abandon hope, as a future, sometime-never projection, and start to demand fairness, justice and freedom now. To avoid this nightmare they need to keep those desires as something to aspire to, not to actually have. Thus, their man, Obama, sells 'hope' as a diversion technique, a holding position, to keep the masses from truly rebelling.

We have no job, no food on the table and our home has been foreclosed, but at least we have 'hope'. Phew, thank goodness for that.

'I'm hungry, mum, can I have some hope, please?'

'I'm so sorry, darling, you can't have hope today, only tomorrow - hope is always tomorrow.'

'So will I eat tomorrow, mum?'

'We can hope so now, dear, but when we get to tomorrow, we can only hope it's the next day.'

On and on it goes. That's how 'hope' works. Or rather doesn't.

Obama's predominant mantra is 'change'. Indeed, his massively-funded, record-breaking campaign has been based on that one word - change. This is a technique used by Bill Clinton and many others and it is highly effective because, at any point, the system ensures that most people are not happy with the way life is. So, when you don't like the status quo, 'change' can be a potent message, even if, like Obama, you don't say what it means.

It has been vital to his success, and that of his controllers, that he has never specified what his 'hope', 'change', and that other mind-control trigger-word, 'believe', were referring to in terms of policy and the way society in general will be affected. Hope for what? Change what? Believe in what?

To answer those questions with specifics would have been fatal to Obama's appeal.

I studied the military/government mind-control programmes and techniques in great detail for many years during the late-1990s and across 2000, and the Obama 'phenomenon' is the most blatant mass-mind control operation you could wish to see.

At its core the plan has been to make Obama the focus of everything you hope for, believe in and want to change. This is why it has been crucial for him not to specify and detail what is meant by his 'hope, 'change' and 'believe'.

However, I can tell you what those words mean in the context of the Obama mind-game. They mean whatever you decide they mean or want them to mean. The idea is for you to project all that you stand for onto him and so he becomes the symbol of you and how you see the world.

Specifics would destroy that 'I am whatever you want me to be' scenario and so you don't get any detail, just 'hope', 'change', and 'believe'. They don't want him to be seen only as 'the Messiah'; they also want him to be Abraham Lincoln, JFK, or Buddha - anyone you choose to project on him, for he is a blank page, blank screen and empty suit. Obama is a make-your-own, do-it-yourself leader, a projection of your own mind. (If you are still asleep, that is. If you are in any way awake, he's an open book.)

Watch the video How Obama Got Elected to see how easy it is to manipulate the masses. It's child's play.

'I am whatever you want me to be, for I am just a projection of you. And I got a big smile, see.'

There is no more powerful way of manipulating people than to tell them what they want to hear and to keep shtum about anything they wouldn't like. Double-glazing salesmen are trained to pick up in general conversation what their target likes and dislikes and to respond accordingly in the way the product is sold. The technique is simply to tell the potential buyer what you have gleaned they want to be told.

Obama comes from the same stable, but on a massively bigger scale and with a whole network of advisors and controllers steeped in the art of manipulating minds, opinions and actions.

Obama's written-for-him speeches are not from the heart, but from the autocue. The 'heart' bit comes from extensive training and his Bill Clintonesque ability to 'mean it when he says it', a state of delivery that goes beyond mere acting. Tony Blair was trained in the same way.

But if you take a step back and look at these people dispassionately you can clearly see the techniques they consciously employ. Blair is the most blatant fraud in the way he delivers a line, stops in mid-sentence for emphasis and looks down for fake emotional effect. Obama is a little more slick, but, from where I have been looking this past year, not much.

You can see his mind working, turning between autocue screens to his left and right, then straight down the camera for his key messages. From-the-heart orators don't do that; they are too immersed in what they are feeling and saying to give even a passing thought to where they are looking or how the line is delivered.

I worked in television for more than a decade, often reading autocue while a director spoke in my ear telling me what cameras to look at. I have, since the early 1990s, spoken my truth on public stages across the world. I know, therefore, the difference between artificial autocue delivery and body language and talking from the heart without a script. Obama, I repeat, is coming from the autocue, not the heart.

Obama's speeches are a mass of mind-control techniques and Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP, and they are carefully constructed to implant beliefs and perceptions into the mind of the viewer. See the study later in this newsletter headed An Examination of Obama's Use of Hidden Hypnosis Techniques in His Speeches.

As I keep emphasising, the whole Obama circus is an exercise in mass mind control and it has been so successful because so many people live their lives in a permanent state of trance. All of which brings me to the parallels with Nazi Germany, fascist Italy and similar regimes throughout history.

Obama may not look like Hitler, nor sound like Hitler, but the themes are just the same. Germany was in a terrible state economically and militarily in the 1930s in the aftermath of the First World War and the reparations inflicted on the country by the Rothschild/Illuminati-controlled Versailles 'Peace' Conference in 1919.

From amid the chaos came the man that Germans saw then in much the same way that so many see Obama today. His name was Adolf Hitler and his oratory and rhetoric, again supported by a ritualistic presentation founded on mind-control techniques, made him appear to be the German 'messiah', the German Obama.

Hitler promised 'change', 'hope' and something to 'believe in' amidst the consequences of war and financial collapse. He spoke to vast rallies of adoring followers and a mass movement emerged in support of Hitler's vision of a new tomorrow.

As the writer Webster Tarpley points out, fascism in its true sense is not just a police state imposed by a tiny hierarchy. It might end up like that, but first it is brought to power by a mass movement from within the people who have no understanding of what the 'change', hope' and 'believe' they are being offered really means. They just know that they want some because, as with Obama, they make it mean what they want it to mean. Only later do they see, to their horror, what they have signed up for.

Obama's America ...

... Hitler's Germany.

There may seem to be a world of difference, but the techniques are just the same.

Obama is far more dangerous than Bush because he can sell a line to those who are in the trance while Boy Bush could not do that on anything like the same scale. Bush was a transparent idiot with no communication skills who needed massive fraud at the polls to get him officially 'elected'. He could never be the figurehead to inspire a mass movement of the people to support some vacuous 'hope', 'change' and 'believe' when they don't even know what those words are supposed to mean.

But Obama clearly can, because he has.

One of 'his' (his controllers') prime targets are the young, just as they were with the Nazis and the Hitler Youth Movement. If you think this parallel is far-fetched then have a look at this video to see how extreme Obama worship has already become for some young people. Hitler Youth was just the same. Click here to watch.

Originally, under the tab "America Serves", Change.gov read, "President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in under served schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year," the site announced. For the full story click here.

Obama said in a speech in July in Colorado Springs that he wanted to see a 'civilian national security force' that would be as powerful and well-funded as the Marines, Navy and Air Force. Click here for the speech, the relevant segment starts at around 16 minutes.

As Joseph Farah, founder of WorldNetDaily, wrote: "If we're going to create some kind of national police force as big, powerful and well-funded as our combined U.S. military forces, isn't this rather a big deal? I thought Democrats generally believed the U.S. spent too much on the military."

How is it possible their candidate is seeking to create some kind of massive but secret national police force that will be even bigger than the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force put together? Is Obama serious about creating some kind of domestic security force bigger and more expensive than that? If not, why did he say it? What did he mean?'

Obama meant, amid the flowery words, that he's not in favour of either peace or freedom. He is a front-man demagogue for the same force that controlled Boy Bush, Clinton, Father Bush, Reagan, Carter, ad infinitum; but the difference is that he has been hyped to such hysterical proportions that he will be allowed to get away with far more than they were, at least until reality dawns on the mass ranks of his hypnotised supporters. And, clearly, that could take some time.

When I was a journalist a long time ago, I came across a technique that some tabloid newspaper reporters would use to get someone to speak with them. They would work in pairs with the first one knocking on the door of some distressed family who didn't want to talk with the media. He would tell them he was from a newspaper he didn't really work for and treat them with aggression and contempt to make them even more upset.

He would then leave and his colleague would knock on the door, tell them the real newspaper he was from, and act like Mr. Nice Guy. He would say that he understood completely how upsetting the other man must have been, but 'if you will only speak to me exclusively I will make sure that the other man, nor anyone like him, will bother you again'. They usually agreed and the scam was complete.

Much the same thing is happening with regard to Bush and Obama. The Neoconservative 'Republican' wing of the Illuminati has controlled Bush for the last eight years and led the country into foreign wars and financial chaos (bad guy/problem); now the 'Democratic' wing, led by the infamous Zbigniew Brzezinski, has brought forth the 'saviour', Barack Obama, to lead us into the sunshine with 'hope' and 'change' (good guy/solution).

Hence even some more aware people say: 'At least he's not Bush'.

Apart from the unspecified 'hope, 'change' and 'believe', few have any idea what Obama's policies will be. Public perception comes from having an 'image' of him, or a self-projection, not the fine print because Obama doesn't do fine print until the votes are cast and even then he will hide it in his windbag words.

There is an 'image' that Obama is against war, but no he's not. He says he's against the invasion of Iraq, though we'll see what he does about that in office. How can a man calling for more troops, including European troops, to be sent to Afghanistan be against war? He has also said he is prepared to bomb Pakistan and use military force to stop Iran building nuclear weapons.

Obama isn't against war at all and, if his controllers have their way, he will engage the US in even more foreign conflicts with the troops sent to their deaths, and the deaths of their targets, on a wave of oratory from the dark suit with the black face who would never go where he's sending them.

He claims to be a 'uniter', which is exactly what Bush said about himself before he came to office, but unity in and of itself is not the issue. Nazi Germany had unity in the early years of the war, but was that a good thing? What matters is what the unity is designed to achieve and Obama's much-vaunted 'unity' is to 'inspire' a mass movement to support the Orwellian plans of the Illuminati.

His constant rhetoric about 'bringing people together' can be used to justify the 'coming together' of the United States, Canada and Mexico in the North American Union; it can be used to unite the believers in their opposition and condemnation of non-believers, which is precisely what happened in Nazi Germany with the book-burning and violent suppression of those who challenged the Hitler regime.

Bush and Cheney were transparent warmongers and would always have struggled to bring in the draft, the compulsory enlistment of people into the military against their will. But it would not be as difficult for Obama in the current climate. Look at those kids in the video earlier and, for goodness sake, he's already talking about compulsory community service for middle school, high school and college students and creating a people's army in America.

That's why I say Obama is far more dangerous to freedom than Bush. In the last eight years Bush could only get part of the way to fascism - Obama has the potential to finish the job, for all the reasons I have mentioned and more

You only have to look at the cabal behind Obama, and those he has already appointed to his administration team, to see what his 'change' is truly planned to be. His mentor, svengali and main controller is Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter's National Security Advisor, and the co-founder, with David Rockefeller, of the Illuminati's Trilateral Commission.

Brzezinski has admitted publicly that he began to fund and train what he would call today 'terrorists' in Afghanistan to oppose the Soviet-controlled government in the capital, Kabul, in the late 1970s. The idea, he said, was to entice the Soviet Union to invade Afghanistan to protect the Kabul regime and thus give the rival superpower 'their Vietnam'. The plan worked at the cost of a million Afghan lives during the Soviet occupation from 1979 to 1989, a consequence that troubles Brzezinski not at all.

Brzezinski's 'freedom fighters' would become known as the 'Mujahideen' and later the Taliban and what is claimed to be 'Al-Qaeda'. This is the man behind 'anti-war', Barack Obama. It was common knowledge that President Carter would do nothing involving foreign policy without the okay from Brzezinski, the co-founder of the Trilateral Commission which chose Carter for president.

The Trilateral Commission and the wider Brzezinski network, including Illuminati fronts like the Ford Foundation, have now chosen Obama and the situation will be the same. Brzezinski will call shots; Obama's job is simply to sell them to the people. This is rather alarming when you think that Brzezinski wants to trigger a war involving Russia and China.

'Obama's policies come straight from Brzezinski's books. Here is one Brzezinski quote you might recognise and it was made before Obama ran for president:

'Needed social reassessment . . . can be encouraged by deliberate civic education that stresses the notion of service to a higher cause than oneself. As some have occasionally urged, a major step in that direction would be the adoption of an obligatory period of national service for every young adult, perhaps involving a variety of congressionally approved domestic or foreign good works.'

Now where have I heard that before?

As an Illuminati operative, Brzezinski's aim is to create a world government, central bank, currency and army - a global dictatorship - underpinned by a microchipped population connected to a global computer/satellite system. He wrote a book in 1970, Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era, in which he described the global society that he and the Illuminati seek to impose: 'The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities.'

He also said in the same book nearly 40 years ago:

'Today we are again witnessing the emergence of transnational elites ... [Whose] ties cut across national boundaries ... It is likely that before long the social elites of most of the more advanced countries will be highly internationalist or globalist in spirit and outlook ... The nation-state is gradually yielding its sovereignty ... Further progress will require greater American sacrifices. More intensive efforts to shape a new world monetary structure will have to be undertaken, with some consequent risk to the present relatively favorable American position.'

'We need a different leadership because our souls are broken. We need to be inspired ... to make the sacrifices that are needed to push us to a different place.'

You can bet that this will include sacrificing more sovereignty and freedom on the road to the global dictatorship described by Brzezinski for decades.

Brzezinski's son, Mark, was an 'advisor' to the Obama campaign (doing what his father told him) and, in line with the American one-party-state, his other son, Ian, was foreign policy advisor to the McCain campaign (doing what his father told him). Brzezinski's daughter, Mika, reported the campaign for MSNBC television.

Obama has been the chosen one for a long time, a fact known only to a few in the deep inner circle, and his relationship with Brzezinski almost certainly goes back to the start of the 1980s when he attended the Ivy League, and big-time Illuminati, Columbia University where Brzezinski was head of the Institute for Communist Affairs. Obama simply will not talk in any detail about this period.

And a question: Does anyone really believe that someone, a 'man of the people', would simply appear from apparently nowhere to run the slickest and best-funded presidential campaign in American history? He was chosen long ago by those who wish to enslave the very people that Obama says he wants to 'set free'.

Brzezinski on the left, Soros on the right

Then there is the Jewish financier, George Soros, the multi-billionaire associate of Brzezinski and closely involved with the funding and marketing of Obama. Soros is a former board member of the Illuminati's Council on Foreign Relations and funds the European Council on Foreign Relations. In short, he is a major insider.

You can certainly see the Soros/Brzezinski techniques in the Obama 'revolution' in the United States. It was the complex and secretive network of Soros foundations and organisations, connected to the intelligence agencies of the US and Israel, that trained and funded students in the Ukraine, Georgia and elsewhere in the art of mass protest and overthrowing governments - see the David Icke Newsletter, The Grand Chessboard ... Georgia Is Just Another Move.

These manufactured protests were sold to the world as 'peoples' revolutions', but it just so happened that when they were over and the old regime was removed the new leaders were those waiting in the wings all along - the puppets of Soros, Brzezinski and their associated networks.

Obama is just more of the same, a big smile with strings attached, and controlled completely by the Illuminati networks that chose him, trained him, sold him and provided his record funding. It was they who kept his many skeletons under wraps and will continue to do so as long as he jumps to their bidding.

He's just another Banksters' moll prostituting himself for fame and power, and that's why he supported the grotesque bail-out of the banking system and why he will always put their interests before the people. His financial advisors are straight from the Wall Street 'A' list, including Paul Volker (Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg Group), the head of the Federal Reserve from 1979 to 1987 and Illuminati to his fingertips

This week Bloomberg.com reported that the Center for American Progress (CAP), housed just three blocks from the White House, has become a major source for policy initiatives for the Obama Democratic Party. Who funds the Center for American Progress? George Soros.

It is simply the Neocon Project for the New American Century and the American Enterprise Institute under another name. Those two organisations developed and dictated the Bush policy of war and suppression and the 'CAP' and others like it will do the same for Obama. The CAP will fit and Obama will wear it.

In fact, except in name and rhetoric, there is no difference in theme between the regimes of Bush and Obama. Bush policy was dictated through Illuminati 'think tanks' and so is Obama's. Bush was surrounded by slavish pursuers of Israeli interests and so is Obama.

Mr. 'Change' has pledged his unquestioning support for Israel to the point of 'pass the sick bag' and his vice-president, Joe Biden, is a vehement Zionist who makes a virtue of saying he will support Israel in all circumstances.

Obama has appointed the arch Zionist Rahm Emanuel as his chief of staff and another super Zionist Jew, Denis Ross, to be his Middle East Policy advisor. God help the Palestinians. Ross also served in the Bill Clinton and Father George Bush administrations. Oh, plenty of 'change' there, then.

Rahm Emanuel, a Chicago-born Congressman, is the son of Benjamin M. Emanuel, who was a member of the murderous Jewish terrorist organisation, Irgun, which helped to bomb and terrorise Israel into existence. The Open Secrets website reports that Emanuel was the top House recipient in 2008 for election contributions from 'hedge funds, private equity firms and the larger securities/investment industry'.

Emanuel was also appointed by Bill Clinton to the board of the mortgage giant Freddie Mac in 2000 and his tenure coincided with a stream of scandals and financial irregularities. It famously had to be bailed out by the taxpayer amid the sub-prime mortgage debacle.

A close friend of Emanuel is the Chicago-based Zionist, David Axelrod, who ran Obama's election campaign and will no doubt be highly influential in the Obama administration. Axelrod is a veteran of Chicago politics, one of the most corrupt political systems in the world. He worked for many Chicago mayors in the 1990s and on Obama's senate campaign in 2004.

Bill Clinton took his Arkansas cabal to Washington when he became president in 1993 and Obama is uploading his Chicago mob and handing them key positions of national power and influence. And these guys don't take prisoners.

All of this may be many things, none of them pleasant, but 'change' it isn't.

David Axelrod, Obama's 'narrator' and handler. Click here for a background article that needs some reading between the lines.

Obama is a monumental fraud who talks a good story, but lives a very different one. He won his first political office as a state senator in Chicago in 1996, not through the power of his policies, but by coldly abusing the electoral process.

Instead of running against his opponents and letting the people decide, he had his people challenge hundreds of names on the nomination papers of his Democratic primary rivals until they were all forced off the ballot by technicalities. He then ran unopposed. One of them, Gha-is Askia, says that Obama's behaviour belied his image as a champion of the little guy and crusader for voter rights: "'Why say you're for a new tomorrow, then do old-style Chicago politics to remove legitimate candidates? He talks about honour and democracy, but what honour is there in getting rid of every other candidate so you can run scot-free? Why not let the people decide?"

Why? Because he would probably have lost and Obama isn't interested in losing by playing fair. He wants to win by any means necessary. The only voter-right he's interested in is the right to vote for him.

Obama is a classically corrupt main-chancer spawned from the Chicago political cesspit. His close connections, therefore, to seriously dodgy 'businessmen' and fraudsters like the now jailed slum landlord Tony Rezko are exactly what you would expect.

But for now no scale of evidence will stop the swooning Obama zombies from believing the hype or burst their reality bubble. That is going to take hard experience and it could take some time and a lot of disappointment before they are released from the clutches of cognitive dissonance and have to admit to themselves they have been had.

It is the same for all the black people who voted for what they thought was the first black president when, in truth, he is a man in a black mask representing the interests of the white-faced Illuminati cabal, the very families and networks that ran the slave trade.

I don't want to be the bringer of bad news or the thwarter of dreams, but honesty demands it. The man is a trickster controlled by super-tricksters. A sock puppet controlled by bigger sock puppets who serve an even greater and darker evil.

To his masters, Obama is just a means to an end and if it suits them to assassinate him to trigger civil war and upheaval in the United States then that is what they will do.

Oh dear Oprah, how will you cope when reality dawns? But, then, will it ever??

'What? You mean you're not the Lord?'

I can understand the appeal of Obama because people want him to be what he claims to be, but isn't. They are sick of the conflict, the corruption, the struggle we call 'life' and they want it all to change. But Obama's change is illusory and represents only the continued transformation of society in the image envisaged by Orwell.

We will see some apparently good things announced, like the closing of Guantanamo, to give the impression that Obama means what he says. But keep your eye on the ball and you'll see how the agenda of the global tyranny is introduced under the guise of Obama's 'hope', 'change', 'believe', 'sacrifice' and 'coming together'.

It could take two years, maybe much more, before cognitive dissonance (lying to yourself) loses it current grip on the minds of the Obama faithful. Until then they will make endless excuses for him (lie to themselves) to keep the 'dream' alive.

But one day they will have to admit, by the power of the evidence before them, that they bought a dream and got a nightmare. What a pity they can't see the obvious now and save them themselves such painful disappointment.

LIFE AND THE NEW SPIRITUALITY: FINDING THE JOY IN LIFE

By Neale Donald Walsch

If you believe that life has anything to do – anything at all – with the needs or goals or accomplishments of your body, then you haven't understood anything at all about the purpose of your existence; about the reason you, a spiritual being, chose to travel through time and space with your body and dwell in the realm of physicality.

You must understand who you really are before you can begin to understand life – or even tolerate it. Only when you know your true identity, and your true purpose for being here, can anything that's happening around you even begin to make sense. In the absence of this clarity, life as it is lived on the planet Earth will become totally unacceptable to do. It will make no sense at all. And you will want to reject it, to run from it, to hide from it, to pretend you have nothing to do with it, and ultimately, to abandon it.

It will all seem so pointless to you. It will all seem to have no reason or purpose whatsoever, but to simply be a tangled mess of no-fun alternatives and joyless experiences and frustrating choices and impossible challenges, and you will say to yourself more than once, "what's the point?"

In these moments of deep questioning you may find yourself in such a negative place that you will even snort out the defiant lie: "I'd rather be dead."

Only in the presence of Awareness can the primitive existence that we are all living in this barbarian civilization begin to have any meaning, to hold any promise, to provide any comfort in a way that makes sense to our soul.

So here is the truth, here is what you need to know to make some sense of it: You are not your body. Your body is something you have, it is not something you are. The "You" that you are is non-physical. You are a package of energy, a singular unit of the Essential Essence of all of life. You are an expression of all and everything that life is. In spiritual terms it could be said that you are an Individuation of Divinity.

You are a Spirit. You live in two realms: the Realm of the Spiritual and the Realm of the Physical. You move between realms eternally in a process called Evolution. You experience life in the Realm of the Spiritual in order to Know your Self, and you experience life in the Realm of the Physical in order to Experience your Self. The back-and-forth movement of your soul between realms is a journey from Knowing to Experiencing and back again.

So far this is all pretty straightforward. Now here comes the twist. In order to Experience your Self you must forget some of what you Know about your Self. This is because if you remembered everything, there would be no way to re-create yourself anew. And this is the Experience which your soul desires.

What is important for you to know, what is vital for you to understand in the early going as you explore your Reason for existing and the Reality of all of life, is that there is a much larger agenda being served here than what may be immediately apparent. That agenda has nothing to do with the desires of your body, although your body may, and will, be used in advancing that agenda.

The agenda you are serving is the agenda of your soul. This does not mean that you can have nothing to do with the desires and the joys of physical life. Indeed, it is just the opposite. It is through experiencing the desires and the joys of physical life that the agenda of your spirit is served.

Yet you cannot begin to know the joys of physical life until you stop chasing after them as if they were the Agenda, as if they were the Prime Purpose, the Prime Goal.

Because most people have not given up the chase, most people have given up the joys.

They're resigned now to settling for simple satisfactions. They want only an end to the fear, to the struggle, to the frustration of daily existence. They seek a modicum of security and just the smallest portion of what they see that the most fortunate have.

They have become bitter and angry as a result of their inability to achieve even these minimal life goals. They have joined the Great Mass of the Disaffected. They are facing, each day, a life of small sufferings (or in some cases, very large ones), and they scrape and scratch for a tiny moment of happiness here or there.

This is the way it is for many people on this planet. In fact, most. Believe me, I am not exaggerating here. This is the way it is.

Perhaps you have experienced life in this way yourself. Perhaps you are experiencing life in this way right now. The above description may feel a little exaggerated to you, but, by and large, it may not be so far off from your own moment-to-moment journey. And if this is not the way life is for you now, I'd venture to say that, at the very least, you know someone in your immediate circle of acquaintances who fits this description perfectly.

I don't mean this to be a "downer." I'm not trying to throw tons of negative energy around here. In fact, just the opposite. I am bringing all of this up here because I want to make a larger point: Life need not be this way. Life was not intended to be this way.

The reason life is this way for so many people is that there is among so many people a huge misunderstanding about the nature and function and the purpose of life itself, and who they are in relationship to that.

The good news is that there is a formula that human beings can use that can and will turn their experience around. And the beginning of that formula is about coming to a place of great clarity that life has nothing to do with the body. Life has to do with the Spirit.

That is the understanding for today. Let that be Today's Reminder.

Nothing more needs to be said now. That is enough. That is a lot. It is a great deal to absorb and to embrace and to digest. So grab onto that knowledge and hold tight to that wisdom as you move through this day.

Stop – this very day, stop – the incessant voice inside your head that complains about the experiences your body is not having, the pleasures your body is not enjoying, or the security your body is not feeling. And stop, as well, the endless activity of your mind, wishing for acknowledgment, that others may know who you are and how special you are and how wonderful you are and how good you are at what you do.

You will have all of this. I tell you that before this lifetime is over, every one of your wishes about this will come true. And it will mean nothing to you.

Then you will realize that you have been reaching for the wrong thing. Then you will understand...then, in that moment...you will know that you came here to begin with to serve the agenda of your soul, not the agenda of your mind or body.

I know that all of this may seem empty to you right now – especially if you are young. Who wants to wait for all the wisdom of life to befall you? Who wants to wait for all the wishes of youth to be granted? Who wants to go through everything that it seems we have to go through in order to achieve what the Spirit is choosing to accomplish?

Yes, yes, it takes great patience, it takes a great willingness to surrender to the process, it takes great faith, especially when you are young. For you have just come into your body, after all, a mere 18 or 25 years ago, and you are just really embarking upon your life, and you understandably want to get on with it, and experience the joy of it.

Well, you can! Yes, you can! Even while you are young! Wisdom does not have to wait until you are very old. It is not the treasure only of the ancient and the aged. True wisdom may be embraced at any age, at any time, in any moment. And with the embracing of such wisdom, joy becomes possible to achieve and to experience – even in the midst of the frustration and the anger and the sufferings small and large.

So journey with me to the place within you where wisdom resides, where lasting joy is created, and where the wonder of life may be known as it was always intended to be experienced. Come with me now, and I will show you the place where your heart's desires dwell, where your grandest truth lives, and where is born your most wondrous expression of Self, which can emerge through you as you in the most extraordinary and breathtaking way at any moment.

You must believe me when I tell you there is more to life than you now know. I promise you. There is a Reason that conditions are the way they are in the apparency of things, and there is a Reality that stands apart and aside from these conditions.

Someone asked me the other day, "What is Enlightenment?" Enlightenment, I told them, is joy experienced. And it can be experienced even in the midst of the primitive life that we all live on earth. Indeed, we came to the earth to do so.

We have the opportunity, because of this environment, to know and experience the bliss of entering and expressing our True Selves. On the time scale of the Universe, we are here for but a split-second. Yet even in this tiny moment, even in this smallest slice of Eternity, we have ample opportunity. Such is the wonder and the glory of life. And such is the generosity and the love of God.

UNSTOPPABLE CHANGES IN THE POST CRASH WORLD

By T. Anthony Michael - Online Journal Contributing Writer, October 22, 2008

Now that the genie is out of the bottle, economic, political and social events will proceed with the inexorable force of destiny. The predictions that follow do concern the unsavory business of what, positively, will not be brought into the future. This is of critical importance. Why? Because those who do not know, and understand, and heed history, are always, always forced to repeat it.

Prediction #1

As we all sit back and wait for this year's October Surprise, please know that it came a little bit early this year – on September 15 which will forever be known as Black Monday. Actually, the entire month of October is set up to be a series of Black Mondays, as well as every other day of the week is shaping up to be. It's really a good time to brace yourself since this year's election cycle, and beyond, will bring with it a whole new season of surprises. Things like the beginning of the end of fiat money – the real root cause of all our financial problems and economic ills. This foundational flaw, together with all of the multi-layered financial/economic/accounting mechanisms and schemes that have insidiously crept into the system, are the ‘not talked about' institutionalized culprits and structural deformities that really need to go. Without them, the perps wouldn't be so tempted to stack the deck against us all the time.

The only legitimate currency is that which is backed by gold, or some other precious commodity that is universally valued, and issued directly by the US Government, not a privately owned, organized crime syndicate like the fed. Debt driven, fractional-reserve banking – the real bane of global finance – will then be banished from the planet forever, along with the overlords of disaster capitalism, institutionalized usury and loan-sharking (e.g. World Bank and International Monetary Fund), as well as their economic hitmen. Finally, the central organizing principle of modern society, and especially Western civilization, will no longer be maximizing shareholders' wealth.

Prediction #2:

Another little surprise will come in the form of an announcement that goes something like this: The USA was conceived to be a constitutional republic, not a democracy by plutocracy. The founding fathers would be absolutely horrified to see the "mob rule by the privileged elites" into which this once great nation has degenerated. Every political philosopher knows that democracy, when sufficiently dumbed down and unduly influenced by the moneyed ruling class, will always devolve into a despotic tyranny. Therefore, the wholesale exportation of our fraudulent notion of democracy, and its supposed freedoms (to buy, buy, buy after watching the boob tube hucksters), by the political and corporate classes must be reconsidered. And it will be soon, on a new channel during this "fall" season's new lineup! Stay tuned . . .

Prediction #3

Another announcement will be made, in the not too distant future, about the business entity commonly known as the corporation – the main huckster of this ‘brand' of faux democracy. Surely, if the devil were to ever choose the perfect form in which to enter in order to carry out his nefarious designs, Inc. is it. Is there any other entity on earth – person or party, organization or association, government or institution, jurisdiction or bureaucracy, club or group, fraternity or sorority, etc. – that can function with such impunity, as it hides behind the shield of limited liability? Those two words have given complete cover for the flagrant and wanton destruction of planet Earth.

You name it – oil slicked coastlines, razed rainforests, beaches strewn with dead dolphins and whales. Not to mention the complete erosion of human, civil and national rights, wherever INC decides to set up shop.

Let's pick a country. Let's go to India and visit Bhopal of Union Carbide fame. Close to 8,000 people died within two weeks of that December day in 1984 in what is known as the worst industrial disaster of the last century. Now that Dow Chemical owns Union Carbide, you can only imagine the veritable phalanx of attorneys who are paid unconscionable fees to ensure proper responsibility and accountability will never be assumed by their master.

Or let's visit the Punjab and talk to the thousands of widows of farmers who committed suicide because of Monsanto's "seedless seeds." Or go to just about anywhere on that subcontinent where a Wal-Mart is being protested for land theft, encroachment and despoilation. Let's not forget about all the Coca Cola bottling plants that have become notorious for stealing the most precious commodity that every Indian cherishes and covets – water. Well, that takes care of land, water, air . . . and blood. What else in heaven's name do these stakeholders want?!

We all know the deal. It's the one where the individual, and his/her environment, is always trampled in favor of the corporate interest. Isn't it time to really take stock of what our current predicament has left us with. Perhaps it's also time to seriously think about actually reordering the order, instead of once again rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Like we've said, "optimizing stockholder profit" will soon be history, as the cease and desist orders are not far from being issued to Corporate America. Might as well get a head start on dissolving (or re-chartering) that corporation.

Prediction #4

Termination of Globalization: The dominating and predatory form, that is. No other global initiative has been more unsuccessful at creating a framework for a more efficient transfer of goods and services around the planet. Truly, every aspect of this corporate inspired policy has failed miserably. Wherever it promoters trumpet its stated intention to make markets more streamlined, effective and resilient, it has done quite the opposite.

One only needs to look at the current debacle within the European Union concerning the banking, credit, and stock market breakdowns. Never has a response from the appropriate governing bodies been more disorganized, full of mixed messages and working at cross-purposes with the member states. It's like watching the Three Stooges (France, Germany and Italy) play musical chairs blindfolded with no clothes on. What an unprecedented spectacle, and in plain view for the entire world to watch! This will undoubtedly put the brakes on the concretizing of a North American Union and its planned currency – the Amero. Praise the Lord!

As a matter of fact, all of the financial unions and economic superstates (e.g. European Union; Southeast Asian Association for Regional Cooperation; Union of South American Nations) that have been created over the past many years will, by sheer necessity and desperation, be forced to reorganize themselves in the next few years. Even South America, which has two distinct camps that are constantly gummin' up the works for each other, will abandon their current emerging model in favor of one that enjoys complete freedom from its NA taskmaster. To their credit, they have set the bar higher than it has ever been set concerning their strongly stated desire to be free of IMF and World Bank control. Only Russia has exceeded their standards, as they had already been fleeced by the oligarchs in what may very well be the grandest larceny of national wealth/resources in history. This, of course, was preceded by a 75-year scourge of incessant rape, pillaging and plundering by the Bolsheviks and their Western financiers and handlers.

The ruinous influence of these two globalization thugs (IMF and WB) can be instantly assessed by looking at the economic calamities they caused in Argentina (1999-2002), as well as in Thailand, South Korea and Indonesia during the 1997 Asian currency crisis. Likewise, every nation in Africa that has chosen to take on their monetary yoke has only misery and war and financial oppression to show for it. Wherever these two Scrooges show their faces, it's quite like Ebenezer himself showing up to make a house call. You know the patient will soon find himself in a pine box after all gold fillings and rings have been removed.

We have seen this globalization scam unfold in country after country, as a ruse to steal a nation's resources, always taking from those who have, and giving to those who want it. In fact, an objective assessment of all the world's current conflicts would reveal that the vast majority are directly the result of this geopolitical/commercial dynamic. The privatization of water sources/bodies/supplies/rights is perhaps the most provocative and glaring, and can be found at the root of a number of these resource wars.

Clearly the verdict has been delivered: Economies are much less vulnerable the more locally they are positioned and the less centralized their decision-making process. This arrangement affords much greater resiliency when dealing with the vicissitudes of the marketplace. And it takes the power away from those who are insulated in ivory towers, and far from the plight of the common man. "Think globally; Act locally."

Prediction #5

The stock market will become extinct. There is no greater tool at the disposal of those who can, and do, manipulate the various markets than the charade of "setting up" a formal system of trading, buying and selling of anything, as exemplified by the New York Stock Exchange. This is where it all happens. From devastating whole national (and regional) economies, to toppling uncooperative corporate execs, to bringing 150-year old multi-billion dollar companies to their knees within a week's time. From triggering stockholder revolts, to propping up corporate raiders, to extorting billions from national and/or corporate treasuries, they can, and do, do it all right there on the floor of the exchange.

Really, the very best example of what occurs in these speculative market exchanges is the gambling casino. In Vegas, everyone knows that the house always wins. It never loses. Even when there is the appearance of losing, it still wins. Go figure, but it's true. Your stockbroker is not too unlike the blackjack dealer. And your financial planner is often a croupier in disguise. So, the question remains, do you honestly know what your hard earned retirement money is invested in? If not, this is a very good time to find out!

For those of us who have been there, we know that whether you call it an oil bourse, a commodity exchange, or a bond market, you're still playing in a game that can go against you at any time. Wipe out your earnings in a heartbeat; devour your principal in a flash. It's often been said that when he comes, "he comes like a thief in the night." Do you still feel you know where your entire life savings are currently residing?

The derivatives market represents the single greatest threat to worldwide economic stability and financial security. It poses such great potential for financial abuse and economic devastation that the current institutional arrangements of this commercial realm have become completely unacceptable. The alarming proliferation of hedge funds, as well as the growing number and variety of derivative instruments, has reached a critical mass that is incompatible with living a financially sound life on planet Earth. Simply put, some of these instruments are so far from the street – economic reality – that they put in jeopardy all the hard work, which appears in the form of real goods and services, that is produced by any economy at any given time. This predicament signifies a clear and present danger to us all.

Remember – derivatives are the real megillah. Derivatives, by their very nature, can be highly radioactive, and can go nuclear any time circumstances conspire in just the right, or wrong, way. Those who control their destiny can, likewise, utilize their inherent threat as a means of conduct, completely under the radar screen, of financial/economic terrorism. It's time for them to go. And we trust it's just a matter of execution at this point.

Prediction #6

Mass Consumerism and Perpetual Economic Growth – the Frick and Frack of our age – are history. One need not look any farther than the inside of one's own home to see the ravages of these adopted twins. They own the bedroom, the living room, the family room and all the closets. They've taken over the kitchen, the den and the garage, as well. Since their middle names are Amass and Accumulate, we can only imagine what might lay hidden in the attic, the basement and the shed.

Ever since they became the twin pillars of Kali Yuga's overarching philosophy of life, things started to really go to hell in a handbasket . . . or rather gilded cage. How so? What else could one expect from a political economy that demands growth, necessitates growth and extols the virtues of growth at every turn (and on every other commercial and newscast). Growth at the expense of what? We'll tell you what – life!

One of the most tragic parts of this ever-unfolding tragedy has been the dramatic change in the spirit of the people with whom these twins associate. The very society loses its refinement, as the culture becomes debased. Aren't so many things associated with Americana experienced as coarse, and crude? Likewise, the nation, which was once known as the "land of the free; home of the brave," morphs into a country reviled for its unkindness, lack of compassion and cruelty. Before anyone realizes, the citizenry is easily being herded, and then stampeded, into wars and conflicts of every sort and kind.

What else could be expected when the meme of consumerism is subliminally implanted at such a young and tender age, and relentlessly reinforced from cradle to grave? And, what does it really say about a society when all who belong to it are known as consumers? Kind of like little Pac-Men (and Pac-Women) gobbling up everything in sight. It starts out with Big Macs and 24 oz Cokes, then super-sized Hummers, then oil fields and gold mines and precious rainforests, and then whole countries.

Likewise, in the corporate realm, any board director, company officer, division president, regional director, department manager, production supervisor, etc., will candidly speak to the greatest pressure in their lives. More sales, more profit, more production, more revenue – anything that will show an increase in year over year growth. Always gotta grow, even though you've been out of puberty for 20 or 30 years!

Well, you can imagine that this state of affairs can only go on for so long. As a matter of fact, this party is now over. And the hangover is about to begin. Perhaps it's time to send these twins on a permanent vacation to the waterless region.

Prediction #7

There is a very profound and significant connection between 9/11/01 and 9/11/08 that may be difficult for many to fully embrace. But here it goes –

The omen that 911 truly was, looks a little bit like, The Lord of The Rings.

Remember the Twin Towers? When they came down in New York City, it was a message to humankind that the reign of the Almighty Dollar was coming to an end. As a nation's currency goes, so goes its destiny. Her financial strength and economic prowess was on the wane, and soon to be greatly diminished. Just as the WTC (financial capital of the world) was pulverized into dust, the US dollar would be swept into the ash heap of history. Just as we see it collapsing all around us, exactly seven years after the original 911 apocalyptic events.

When the Ring of Power was finally destroyed, like the Pentagon (ring-shaped command center of the military-industrial complex) was mortally wounded and damaged, the message was equally clear. Her military might and superior force would be reduced to rubble in the twinkling of an eye. She would, likewise, soon see the demise of Her all-pervasive state sponsored terrorism. This, because she had lost all moral ascendancy. Besides, the empire could no longer be sustained politically, financially, practically or ethically, as the seeds of its own destruction had fully sprouted. The most fatal seed grew into that extremely corrupt and predatory form of corporate, crony capitalism which was so socially unconscious, and so environmentally unaware, it was quite doomed from the very beginning.

The good news is that this nation – its people – will now be compelled to beat their "swords into plowshares" and their "spears into pruning hooks."

Just as the Phoenix rose from its ashes, so too will America ascend to even greater heights, as long as she ascends with the guidance of the highest of ideals, loftiest of principles and noblest of intentions. And she reforms, and transforms Herself, in good faith, in earnest and with haste.

As a modern day prophet said in the days immediately following September 11, 2001: "America, Wake up! Seize this God-given opportunity. There is no more time to dally in fear and ignorance and greed. For yours is a destiny that must serve as a beacon of Light and Love and Hope to the world. Make haste, the time is drawing nigh!"

WANNA BECOME A CREATOR GOD OF THE PHYSICAL REALM – THIS SHOULD BE THE ULTIMATE NO-BRAINER!

By Xavier Hermes, Tuesday, 28 October 2008

Now here is a very direct question for YOU: Will you accept the upcoming slavery, hardship and soul-death being planned by the old powers (TPTW) – or would you rather choose to become an all-empowered creator god of the physical realm?

This should be the ultimate no-brainer choice, yet right now the majority of the global population are likely to end up taking the first option - and largely by default.

BE WARNED – WHATEVER HAPPENS NEXT IN THE EVOLUTION OF HUMANITY, YOU CANNOT OPT TO SIMPLY STAY AS YOU ARE. Status quo is no longer on the menu!

How do we engage with the second option? It looks so ‘out there' that it cannot be real, is 'not something that I can do….'

Oh yes, you absolutely can! The answer is that we can choose to work on the rapid opening up our individual consciousnesses, step by step. This takes us on a progressive journey through frequency, moving upward to a higher vibration where a new reality is being constructed for (and by) us – but this will only emerge if enough of us take the journey. This journey will take us to somewhere so fantastic, so positive and creative, that, from where we start out, it is very difficult to grasp just what we are to become.

It is the journey of the GALACTIC HUMAN.

I ask that you appraoch this topic using Possibility Consciousness - just absorb it to start with, resist the temptation to just throw it out as too far-fetched - for, in truth, it is immensely valuable to you if you elect to embrace it.

So, this note is an attempt to sketch out the steps we might expect to take as we expand our consciousness towards the establishing of a New Reality. In practice, the steps are not necessarily clearly separate; but rather, may well tend to run into each other. Our personalities, too, tend to be multi-layered, so that one layer can be well in advance of another. So, the rapid evolution of our personal consciousness is rather more complex that suggested here – but this should be good as a tour map to get some basics of what this might mean into place.

So – here we go:-

The First Step is when we start realising what is going on around us – progressively grasping the facts about the now completely dysfunctional, and stunningly dishonest false reality we are immersed in. As all the greed and control, the nasty plots and the heavy threats come into our view, our consciousness is precipitated into action.

Faced with this shattering realisation that we are in a matrix run by those who serve only their own interests, for a while it is natural for many of us to become downhearted, as the truth of a false reality dawns: then

Step Two is derived from our reaction, often driven by anger - although many other psychological drivers are also possible. They cause us to ask ‘surely, there must be something better than this….?' The question is asked in a hundred different ways – but essentially they are all the same question. It is our motivating force to seek, to start moving.

Step Three is when we start to understand that much has to be let go of if real movement in our consciousness is to be achieved. We tend to be anchored every which way into the old duality – it takes dedication to ‘give it up'. This is a multi-layered process, and may take some time to work our way through.

Step Four: we begin to realise that there is a journey to be undertaken, but that its essence is not physical (although for some of us it can be accompanied by physically moving where we live. i.e., finding a new geography). And then, eventually, we start to take the journey, in company with like-minded others.

Step Five is all about process: we work to move every element of our consciousness (and there are many) upward in frequency, perhaps doing it unconsciously – but working to a plan is much more effective. The tests we encounter in doing this are mostly about how we handle our inter-personal, day-to-day relationships. Our processes mean that we start to see others differently, more positively and more generously. As we do so our expanding self-confidence allows us to treat those around us in a different way. Where we once criticised every effort we now support and encourage. Where our egos caused us to stop – indeed, aggressively stamp out - the creativity of others (a direct result of our own deep insecurities), now we start to encourage and enthuse when others around us show talent in any field. We recognise that not only are they making a contribution, but also that by activating their creativity they are moving towards finding their own true path. Where we were aloof and isolated, we seek inclusiveness with those around us. Where we sought dominance over our immediate environment, we now enjoy debate and making joint decisions, valuing the power of our immediate community and togetherness with others. Where we utilised aggression we now seek conciliation. Where we once quashed any initiative from another, now we applaud the efforts of all those who have the vision to birth ideas, and the commitment to set out to carry them through. Where we once practiced zero tolerance, we start to evolve a highly tolerant way of being, and in so doing learn much about those around us. In short, we become supporters of the efforts of others, and we learn that seeing those very same people as a threat, and tearing them down at the first opportunity, is anathema to the progress of our own soul journey. In contrast, encouraging and building up others to see themselves as able and successful contributes greatly to our own frequencies.

For through every such process we undertake we also raise our own consciousness, moving upwards through frequency, positively influencing others as we do so, and causing our own negativities to progressively fall away.

This stage is also reflected in our speaking. I am reminded of the guidelines for addressing another on any subject with the potential to challenge them. First, think about what you are going to say against the following criteria: a) Is it kind; b) Is it true; and, c) Is it necessary. If what you wish to say fails the test – don't! Then, those nasty little negatives of many conversations will not crash your consciousness - and send you crashing back down the frequencies (like all negative acts).

Step Six is about conscious service to others. We are now seeing those around us in a far more positive light, seeing their finer qualities, and we are now ready to acknowledge the god within each of us. We have steadily moved away from entropy, that negative state in which we used our powers to diminish others and thereby gain control over them. We now start to see that in serving others with an open heart and a genuine desire, helping each person to be the best that they can, our own path (that which raises our frequency) is accelerated – and so that is what we increasingly do.

Of course, as we adopt this way of being with others, those around us will respond by treating us the same way – and our consciousness of our own ability soars as a result. We, and those who travel with us, have started an upward spiral, energetically speaking. It accelerates us along our path, along the journey of rising frequency.

Step Seven: we start to activate our higher connections, experiencing our higher selves and a new level of wisdom and knowing that comes from its collecting of every experience we have had through many, many lives. In practice this may have been happening since the very beginning, but very much at random. Now, it is becoming an integral part of our being ness.

Step Eight is when our higher faculties start to kick in. For some, this is a great surprise, even very confronting at first. We once had all command of a range of faculties that, today, would be widely regarded as ‘magical', but we lost them during our fall into the physical realm. For most of us, the bulk of this descent into three-dimensions density was completed countless lives ago. But – we came here by intent, knowing that a time would come when, having mastered the realm of physicality, we would then integrate it with the higher realms we originally came from. So now, it is entirely appropriate that the rising frequency of our surroundings is starting to bring more than one hundred ‘forgotten' faculties back on line. Slowly, slowly this emerges, for we have no current frame of reference for many of them.

At the same time we are becoming re-connected to all that we have learned, every society we have ever dwelt in, every expertise we ever carried.

By now, it is becoming very obvious that who we were when we set out on the journey has changed mightily. We are well on the way to fully expressing our human blueprint, the old duality ceased to touch us some time back, and a New Reality is emerging around us as we keep moving upward.

Now, our stages of consciousness are become even more esoteric in their nature, ever less easy to believe for those of us still sitting at the beginning of the journey.

In Step Nine, we are beginning to control the material world around us. We start with our own bodies, finding that we can cease the aging process; turn our body clock progressively back so that our physical vehicle shows signs of ‘youthing', and generally crafting our bodies as we desire them to be. This control of the physical extends into all sorts of phenomena as we learn to create at will: first, very simple things, but then moving to the skill of manifesting what we want on a grand scale.

Step Ten is a great expansion of our awareness to embrace our multi-dimensional selves. We are learning to be present in more than one environment at once. We can multi-locate, both in the Earthly realm, and across other dimensions in which aspects of us are present.

We are then arriving at a point where the being that set out on the journey has become hugely expanded; we are able to live in a self-crafted physical body for just as long as this appeals to us; and we can manifest to such an extent that we have become a true creator of the physical realm in which we have chosen to exist.

Will this take us a very long while? Ordinarily I would have said ‘yes', but this ignores the phenomenon of resonance. It is this that the ‘hundredth monkey' syndrome relies on. As more people make the journey, they entrain each other resonantly. This, in turn, affects many, many others to get started out on the first steps – though quite probably the journey is not yet clearly understood. Thus, our movement through frequency generates yet more movement. What starts out as a trickle of braver individuals becomes a torrent, bolstered all the time by the energies of those already advanced on the journey. So - there is the potential for very rapid movement – if enough of us make the start. This is why some writers talk about ‘an evolutionary jump' – the speed at which it has the potential to move will make it seem like this, a GREAT LEAP FORWARD.

In thinking about taking the New Path please be very aware that the old duality is now a complete basket case. It is well, well past its ‘sell-by date', and choosing to remain within it will become very, very challenging...and soon. You have the option, for you can choose to move on, finally leaving the false state we have all been deeply emerged in for many lifetimes. Your choice – to take the deep SHxT that is coming for those remaining in the old duality or consciously start the journey to the New Reality.

But I very seriously council you this – if you wish to take this journey GET ON WITH IT NOW!

Do you know the old saying?

"WHEN YOU'VE HIT ROCK BOTTOM, THE ONLY WAY IS UP"

Well folks, all those who insist in holding on to the old reality are going right there, looking down into ROCK BOTTOM and rushing helter-skelter towards it. The really smart move, the one from which your soul growth will benefit most, is to START MOVING UP RIGHT NOW.

Who is with me?

ELECTION 2008 - A SPIRITUAL AND POLITICAL MARKER

From or by Karen Karbo, kkarbo@infodash.com

Election 2008, no matter what its outcome, is a pivotal marker in time, for the power of light from this point forward will increasingly be capable of determining not only ideas that individuals hold, but courses of action that governments must hold in order to reflect trends supported by the incoming energies of light.

In most cases, we do not think of an election as a spiritual event but as a political event. Yet, in many instances this is not a correct perception. For elections can bring forth the energy of a new candidate, a new attitude within government, and a new orientation in life, all of which can reflect and invite a change in spiritual values. They can set other predispositions aside, thereby influencing not only government policy, but also collective consciousness.

The presidential election of November 4, 2008, even more than most, is an example of the joining of the spiritual and the political, for it is an election that marks the transition to a new, transformative energy that has the possibility for altering our national life and awareness. This new energy is already in play within the national sphere, having to do with the values of unity, cooperation, love and respect for all, and the sense of personal responsibility within a greater Whole. In a spiritual sense, these energies are not just the possession of one candidate, but are ‘in the air', and speak to the changing times we live in.

As the Earth moves into a higher vibration of spiritual light, so, too, do the values of unity and cooperation come to the fore, and the embracing of a non-combative, inclusive approach to resolving human dilemmas. These are both precursors and essential ingredients of the consciousness shift that is arriving – a shift which will bring such values to a new level of depth and understanding. They underlay the movements that are taking place, everywhere, toward spiritual awakening and spiritual truth.

Energies of love and unity supported by the Realms of Light are often opposed by counter-forces which seek to dismiss, dismantle, and disempower them. As a result, those who advocate and embody the new, often have to face the challenge of counter-forces which place significant obstacles in their path. This is true on an individual level, and it is also true within the national arena. Nevertheless, political leaders who reflect the emerging principles of light can catalyze a movement of awareness that accelerates the process of transformation and change. They can play a pivotal role in the speed and ease with which energies become manifested within the physical and material world.

Election 2008 is an illustration of forces for change and oppositional forces present in a large way. And yet the forces for change are the stronger. They have already created a new element in the tableau of American history, enabling the first African-American to become a candidate for the presidency of the United States. This is a huge accomplishment for national awareness. It reflects the healing power of forces of unity and love over forces of division and prejudice. Though the battle is not over, this triumph cannot be undone. It represents a great healing for America's past and a significant step into her future.

Election 2008, no matter what its outcome, is also a pivotal marker in time, for the power of light from this point forward will increasingly be capable of determining not only ideas that individuals hold, but courses of action that governments must hold in order to reflect trends supported by the incoming energies of light. Though this infusion of light may not immediately be apparent on the world stage due to counter-forces at work, it will nevertheless successfully enable new structures to emerge on the social and political level, and a new consciousness within society as a whole.

What can you do to help the process move forward? Election 2008 will serve the purposes of God and light and will be supported by those in the Realms of Light who are watching over the Earth and over the future of America. No matter what the outcome, you can have faith that what will emerge will serve the higher purposes of God for the Earth as a whole, helping to bring about a society grounded in the foundational principles of unity and love.

In addition to going to the polls on Election Day, you can also hold your consciousness firmly in the place of hope and confident expectation that no matter what external circumstances we may have to deal with, the triumph of light, truth, and spiritual awakening is assured.

Holding consciousness firmly in these ways undermines the power of fear to affect collective awareness and of darkness to influence the future outcome of events. Also, allowing yourself to become more spiritually anchored in whatever way seems natural to you, strengthens the vibration of light since it places the center of your awareness and emotional life not in the hands of external events, but in the hands of your own sense of deeper truth.

This is a significant moment in American history and we are here to observe and honor it. It is significant politically, socially, energetically, and spiritually. May it serve the purposes of the highest Light and the wellbeing of all souls, everywhere.

OBAMA IS THE ANTICHRIST! ... OR MAYBE NOT

OK, maybe not. But it sure is hard to tell with all the stories swirling around him. Obama is a Kenyan! Obama is a Muslim! Obama is a Black Communist! Obama is an illegitimate son of a Black Communist! Obama is an illegitimate son of a Black Communist who uses NLP TECHNIQUES! Obama is a secret smoker! There is so much fear around this guy it is mind-boggling.

Let's face reality here: Obama is a politician. That means he uses NLP and hypnosis techniques to win elections. Politicians decided some time ago that they can't win elections on the strength of ideas alone. These types of Jedi Mind Tricks are part and parcel of electioneering. If you are aware of them, you are largely immune. Obama may be a socialist, but have you seen what is going on in Washington? We are all socialists now. McCain is a socialist by our definition of the word. Obama is inexperienced? Again, perhaps. Not really less experienced than JFK [yes, I know, he's no JFK, hahaha] but perhaps as a "community organizer" he has just the kind of experience we need. Let me explain.

The banking industry is collapsing before our eyes, just as many of us here have always wanted. We may get a bond market dislocation along with that. So what, you may ask? How much authority or power do you think a President will have if he CAN'T BORROW OR PRINT MONEY? Get it?

I expect Obama or McCain will find the power of the Presidency EXTREMELY LIMITED. Without access to seemingly infinite amounts of money, Congress' power of the purse will be where the action is. The courts will be reenergized and remember most of the justices have been appointed by Republicans. So Obama's experience as a Chicago community organizer will be important because the "bully pulpit" will be the true power of the Presidency. The President will need to be a man of ideas in both promoting legislation and in promoting ideas that help Americans at the grassroots level.

Look at everything we have going for us: 1) The Constitution is still intact. 2) Ron Paul and his ideas of limited government and honest money have more traction in America than any other time in our lives. 3) There is an archive of those ideas thanks to the primary debates and YouTube. 4) Martial law is unlikely as most American combat power is deployed overseas and the government is bankrupt. WE HAVE ALMOST WON THIS GAME.

But this is a very delicate time. Don't throw victory away with irrational fears about Barrack Obama. If he wins, let him win and be gracious about it. If there's a controversy about the election results, let's attack the corrupt process and leave who wins out of it. As long as we are satisfied the process to resolve the controversy was reasonable and the voting process is fixed [PAPER BALLOTS] then let's move forward in a spirit of cooperation with whoever wins the election.

I'm not voting Obama, btw. I'll likely vote for Bob Barr or Chuck Baldwin. Who you vote for isn't the point. It's HOW you vote that matters. If you vote with faith that we can work things out, we'll be OK. If you vote out of fear of what might happen when your guy doesn't win [whoever that is] you set yourself up for all your fears to come true.

Are we the people Rush sings about in "The Weapon"?
"Like a steely blade in a silken sheath
We don't see what they're made of
They shout about love, but when push comes to shove
They live for the things they're afraid of
And the knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used against them..."

I don't think so. This is a time of faith and hope, not fear.

Mike

2008 AGENDA FOR DISCLOSURE - THE OPENING OF PANDORA'S SUITCASE - NESARA

By Alcuin Bramerton, October 2008

High-status disclosures of previously suppressed information will bring the following changes in 2008:

The Bush-Cheney-Clinton political clique will be removed from American public life permanently. George Bush Jnr, the 43rd President of the United States of America, will leave office before the natural end of his presidential term. Decisive announcements to this effect may be broadcast in October 2008.

The identities of the hidden Khazar Zionist political bosses embedded in corporate America will be disclosed. The use these bosses have made of human clones in American political management will become common knowledge. The use made of human clones in managing European Royal families, international banking, spiritual fascism in religion, industrial militarism and political assassinations will be made clear for all to see. The fact that mind-controlled human clones have been democratically elected into national leaderships, have signed state and religious papers of moment, and have been terminated at will and substituted with others, will be revealed.

Joseph Ratzinger, the present Pope, will be obliged to retire. Queen Elizabeth II of England will abdicate or, at the very least, will begin to withdraw from active personal involvement in Constitutional, Church of England, and international banking affairs. The occult connection between the Vatican in Rome and The Crown Temple in London will be revealed.

All around the world, national leaders and regimes which have political, corporate and legal connections with the American governing establishment will be removed from power. Particularly likely to benefit in this regard are Argentina, Burma, Congo, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sudan, Pakistan and The United Kingdom.

The low-vibration AntiChrist energies of lies, deceit and personal greed, as channelled by the American political establishment (Republican and Democrat), will cease to be sustainable. Undetectable manipulation of the Bush-Cheney-Clinton kind will become increasingly impossible on Earth as the energetic environment of planetary cleansing and ascension raises the dominant vibrations of light throughout the planet. More information about the disintegration of the Bush White House can be found here.

In 2008, there will be a brief, but decisive, worldwide financial collapse starting in Japan as property valuations are revised downwards, and as the yen carry trade unwinds out of control. Corrupt or incompetent banks will cease to trade under their present boards and major shareholders. Particularly vulnerable in this regard are banks and other financial institutions such as Northern Rock (now dead), Paragon, Bradford & Bingley (now dead), Alliance & Leicester (now dead), Barclays Capital, HBOS (now dead), Royal Bank of Scotland, Friends Provident, Moneysupermarket, Peloton Partners LLP, BNP Paribas, Société Générale, Fortis (now dead), Dexia (now dead), ING, Bankgesellschaft Berlin, BayernLB, Deutsche Bank (terminal), Deutsche Postbank, Dresdner, HSH Nordbank, Hypo Real Estate (terminal), IKB Deutsche Industriebank, KfW, SachsenLB (now dead), WestLB, UBS, Glitnir (now dead), Landsbanki (now dead), IceSave (now dead), Kaupthing Edge (now dead), Heritable (now dead), Bank of America, Citibank, JPMorganChase, CSO Partners, Morgan Stanley (terminal), Bear Stearns (now dead), New York Mellon, Blackstone, Carlyle Capital Corporation, Credit Suisse, Bank Julius Baer, LTG Liechtenstein, LLB Liechtenstein, FDIC, KKR Financial Holdings, Lehman Brothers (now dead), Merrill Lynch (now dead), Wachovia (now dead), Wells Fargo, American Express, Moneygram, BankAtlantic Bancorp, Downey Financial, Corus Bankshares, Doral Financial, Oriental Financial, National City, BankUnited Financial, First Horizon National, Colonial Bancgroup, Synovus Financial, Washington Mutual (now dead), Countrywide (now dead), Fannie Mae (now dead), Freddie Mac (now dead), Financial Security Assurance, Istar Financial (terminal), Alesco Financial, First Marblehead, Gramercy Capital, East West Bancorp, Health Net, MF Global, ACA Capital, Ambac Financial, MBIA, FGIC, XL Capital (terminal), AIG (now dead), Allstate, Hartford Financial (terminal), MetLife (terminal), MGIC, PMI Group, FirstFed Financial, Indymac Bancorp (now dead), Regions Financial, Triad Guaranty, Capstead Mortgage, Thornburg Mortgage (terminal), Genworth Financial, National City (terminal), XLCA, Nuveen, SunTrust, Westpac, Al Rajhi, Banque Saudi Fransi, Bank of Israel, Leumi, Hapoalim, Bank of China, ICBC, Japan Post and Sumitomo Mitsui. More about corrupt banking practices in the USA can be found here.

The NESARA global prosperity programmes will be announced and activated. One of the funds involved is The Saint Germain World Trust. It contains deliverable precious metals and currencies worth upwards of one quattuordecillion USA dollars. This is $1 with forty noughts after it; ten thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, million dollars.

Among other projects, this money will be used to buy out all oil corporations, banks and pharmaceutical cartels. And it will zero out (permanently cancel) all personal, corporate and national debts worldwide.

The whole human population will benefit from NESARA. Earth is a most abundant planet. There is more than enough gold-backed human money currently in existence on Earth for each and every human being to be a GBP millionaire without debts of any kind. GBP = Great Britain Pound. NESARA is about sharing the resources of the planet around fairly. And NESARA is about putting benevolent banking systems in place worldwide to deliver this monetary fairness. No individual anywhere on Earth will be beyond the reach of the NESARA wealth redistribution programmes. And no individual or organisation anywhere on Earth will be able to stop it.

NESARA will cancel all credit card, mortgage and other bank debt due to illegal banking and government corruption worldwide. Income tax will be abolished. A new 14% flat rate tax on non-essential new items will provide the necessary revenue stream for national governments. Money will cease to be spent on war, elite security and covert militarism. There will be increased benefits for senior citizens. In the USA, there will be a return to Constitutional Law at every level of the legal system.

And in the USA, a new banking system - American Banking Central - will click into function and will involve twenty nine new banks. The Federal Reserve Board will be abolished. The Internal Revenue Service will be abolished. More about these NESARA-related changes can be found here.

Free-energy Tesla technologies suppressed by the Bush family's corporate energy cartel will become freely known and freely available. There will be no further need to burn fossil fuels once the Tesla technologies are in place in industry, homes and vehicles.

Things will be seen in the skies, on the surface of the Earth and inside the Earth which mainstream corporate media and mainstream western education say do not exist and cannot happen. The core signifiers of ancient mythologies will be found to be real.

The covert interaction of several world governments with negative extraterrestrial groups will be exposed. The role of positive extraterrestrial groups in promoting the energisation of the planet and the manifestation of the NESARA process will be explained. The significance of the agriglyphs (crop circles) will become better understood. The availability of off-planet technologies for pollution control, human transport, and information retrieval will be revealed. Sonic healing machines will be released for the free use of all. The negative stargate (or interdimensional portal) in Iraq at the ancient Sumerian site of Entemenanki (the locality of the ziggurat of Marduk in ancient Babylon) will be closed.

Books will be opened. Human histories will be corrected. Many veridical accounts of human history still exist but have been hidden away and protected for final release during this end-time. They will be released and published in many languages and will be held safe beyond the censorship of dogmatic religion. Remote viewing of suppressed texts in closed libraries will become common. Extraterrestrial text-energy reading technologies, along with manuscript reconstitution and multiplication techniques will become available.

It will become evident that no history, no event, no experience, no exchange, no conversation, no train of thought, and no feeling can ever be totally erased. Everything that has ever happened still exists perfectly in its original energy pattern. With extraterrestrial and spiritual technologies, past histories anywhere and anywhen can be comprehensively accessed and published. Every event that has ever taken place can be retrieved, reproduced and replayed in sound, vision, tactuality and multiple sensation. During 2008 this will begin to be understood. More information about positive extraterrestrials and the Higher Evolution can be found here. And more about agriglyphs is compiled here.

During 2008 more young people and old people, inside and outside world governments, will speak the truth with greater energy, greater clarity and less fear than ever before in human history. And their words will be heard, preserved and multiplied beyond the reach of establishment suppression. They will tell of many things from their own personal experience. They will tell of Earth changes to come and they will tell of Earth changes past. They will tell of how freak weather conditions in the USA, and earthquakes in Japan, have been deliberately man-made by covert government agencies. They will tell of the fate of the thousands of missing children worldwide. They will tell how diseases such as Ebola, AIDS, SARS, H5N1 and Morgellons were the results of deliberate bioterrorism by government agencies seeking to reduce the world's population. More information about the Morgellons mystery can be found here

On the web, a new democratic social encyclopedia to replace Wikipedia will arise. Unlike Wikipedia, this will be constructed in such a way that security, corporate and Zionist misinformers will be unable to manipulate its content. Truth will become clean and free for all.

Into this climate of disclosure will emerge the greatest discloser of all - the long expected World Teacher of The Aquarian Age. Called variously The Imam Mahdi, The Fifth Buddha, The Messiah, Krishna, or The Christ, The World Teacher and his team of spiritual masters will disclose openly the diseases of past history and the healing of the present. And The World Teacher - no surprise here - will not be a religious figure. More information about the emergence of The World Teacher can be found here.

In 2008, there will be further disclosures about endemic professional corruption in Western healthcare systems. Modern allopathic medicine will be shown to be a manipulative con designed by the corporate controllers of the pharmaceutical industry to make people ill, keep them ill, and kill them prematurely. The tools of this manipulation are sophisticated poisons dressed-up as expensive medicines. The medicines in most cases are unnecessary, as is the fashion for casual intrusive surgery which makes even more expensive medicines necessary. Follow the money. Notice also the establishment attempts to suppress or outlaw alternative herbal remedies which work better and cost less. More information about The Ritalin Conspiracy can be found here, and about the Statin scam can be found here.

The story of what going is to happen in 2008 is the biggest story in the history of human civilisation on this planet. It is too big a story to be handled accurately by the corporate mainstream media. The news will be broken, initially, though Indymedia, alternative news, and progressive spirituality sites on the web. But most of all, the story will be discovered in personal experience. As more and more people learn the spiritual exercises of meditation, invocation, affirmation and dream management, more and more people will break free, see clearly and speak openly of that which was, and that which is to come.

The dark is crumbling. Thirteen millennia of elite-led disinformation are coming to an end. Disclosure is light. Disclosure is change. Disclosure is free.

COMMENTS ABOUT OUR FUTURE: CHANGE IS ON THE HORIZON

By James Gilliland , October 12, 2008

Many have asked several questions about our spiritually and technologically advanced off-world visitors and how they will interact in the future. They have also asked about their take on the economy. As far as an economy, most advanced civilizations have abandoned money a long time ago. They have transcended all material need or lack. They found money perpetuated greed and separation, the height of which you are experiencing as we speak. It also allowed the few to control the masses, eventually ending in an uneven dispersal of wealth and class separation. We can now see the end result of capitalism without consciousness.

Following the path of advanced civilizations cannot be done without a change in consciousness, moving into unity consciousness and abandoning the me, mine, competition and control game, which is a game of separation. Nature is abundant. One ear of corn makes about 500 seeds. Plant them and you get 500 X 500 some with multiple stalks. It is exponential, and the same goes with all other grains and vegetables. We have a mass surplus of food much of which is going to waste due to transportation costs and price-fixing due to government controls. Alcohol is being exported as we speak, while gas is seemingly at a shortage. Whether or not this is manufactured, lack and the misuse of supply and demand is another issue. The fact of the matter is: there is no lack. There are oil fields found and capped that would take care of the next 200 years; and adding alcohol to the gas would end the shortage as a short- term fix. Yet again, this is not the issue. The issue is consciousness.

We have not needed the oil since the 1930's; and we have had the technology to supply all our energy and transportation needs fuelessly, courtesy of back engineering ET crashes and inspired individuals who were given the technology - only to have them bought and shelved, or the inventors harassed or even killed. There are water technologies surfacing as well, some of which are very efficient as a fuel. The masses, enslaved through dependency, have been ignorant or willing participants in this, often living in survival, fearing change. They have become dependant on an enslaving program; and they believe their very survival depends on it. The leadership on the whole has not been serving the people, and has chosen to perpetuate the enslavement through dependency, serving the me-and-mine controllers, the elite who are playing the separation game while arrogantly forgetting a little universal law called KARMA.

The available land for living is abundant; yet there are several factors making it unusable. The availability of fresh water for drinking and growing crops, power, etc all can be easily overcome with fuel-less technologies and drilling a few wells. Water conservation and preservation, building energy efficient homes and living in harmony with the land also has to be taken into account.

The bottom line is: until there is a change in consciousness and the leadership reflects that change, there will continue to be a downward spiral in evolution, resulting in social, economic and environmental collapse. Your freedom as well will shift to total enslavement, unless a shift in consciousness occurs. It is your God-given right to live an abundant life in harmony with each other and your environment. The original plan for Earth was to be an Eden where people lived by universal principles necessary for a healthy society and environment. It was hijacked; and it does not take a rocket scientist to see just who is responsible. It is also a no brainer to see who is behind it, who allowed it and is continuing to support it to one degree or another. A little impeccable integrity and brutal honesty - "Self Evaluation" - is in order here.

Why is it the ETs responsibility to clean up the mess? Are they here to save us from our self-created realities and keep us from gaining the wisdom through experience? How dark, how ugly, how enslaving does it have to get before people decide to save themselves? When off- world visitors come here, they are feared, greeted by the military, shot at with reverse engineered weapons - all in an attempt to steal their technology and use it in the war industry. Some even want to make a religion out of them. Now you know why they don't land on the White House Lawn. Considering the current state of affairs, the condition of society, the economy, the environment and those who were entrusted to act in the highest and best good of humanity and the Earth, who instead serve a different cause, it is obvious why our current leadership is not the avenue for contact. The simple people are a much better avenue for communication, those with pure intent, open minds and loving hearts. How pure is your intent, how open is your mind, how loving is your heart, and is your life a reflection of it? Is the leadership a reflection of the people? Are they truly serving the people?

If the leadership truly served the people you would have peace, the end of most diseases, and poverty and homelessness would be no more. Face it: the war, disease, oil and banking profiteers are running things. The me-and- mine elite have a lust for power and wealth that is insatiable. This will end in social, economic, environmental collapse - and total enslavement - if the masses don't wake up. Your divine right to live according to the basic principles necessary for a healthy society and environment has been severely undermined. Universal Peace, Brotherly and Sisterly Love, Individual Freedom and Abundance for all, honoring the Sacred Circle of Life, and the Omnipresent Creator within all Creation are principles and understandings advanced civilizations live by.

We as a civilization, especially in the leadership, have not risen to the occasion; yet the masses are far beyond the leadership in this evolutionary process. In each individual, in their heart of hearts, they desire to live a thoroughly loving, joyous, abundant live in harmony with each other and the environment. It is time for this to come forward; and what we are experiencing is the uncovering and eventual demise of all that which has stunted humanity's evolution. There will be reactions to actions, an acceleration of karma, a grand awakening and healing on every level. It is time to get body, mind and spirit in order, flow and align with this awakening and healing process. It is destiny for humanity and the earth to take a quantum leap in evolution, heal the past, clean up the environment and join the rest of the universe in peace. We can be part of the problem or part of the solution. Take the upward spiral or the downward spiral it is all a matter of choice. Now is the time to choose, with loving detachment, the upward spiral. The age of tyranny is over, and those aligned with the beast shall go the way of the beast.

Be well,
James Gilliland

PATHWAY OF PEACE GLOBAL MESSENGER - OCTOBER 13, 2008 - A VISION FOR A NEW EARTH

From: pathwayofpeace@yahoo.com

STARSEED TEMPLATE ACTIVATION FOR ASCENSION AND THE NET OF LIGHT

A VISION FOR A NEW EARTH

An Earth where chaos matures into growth and reality is a soul harmony vibrating to Love in synchronicity. knowing through radical trust, silence and stillness that the dark is pierced by the Light, and fear and ignorance transformed into insight, love and wisdom. New leaders with spiritual vision unashamedly inspired by a loving connection to all life and a passionate caring for self, humanity and the environment lead the world to an unanimously agreed upon charter of peace. Religion is no longer fought over, but honoured as expressions of divinity. Borders vanish to form one Circle of Light - one earth - one vision - one garden - one economy - one humanity. Diversity is celebrated within the uniqueness of each individual's culture, race and heart.

Generosity and gratitude replace greed, and the desire to accumulate out of fear of scarcity, is replaced by knowing that all is provided for. Spirit is acknowledged in the radiance of each person's being beyond all illusions. The creative potential of each person's abilities unfold into expressions of joyous creations.

All learning celebrates soul development, character, creativity and imagination. Sound, thought, light, feeling and colour are understood as palettes of creation to manifest reality. Love is fostered as the elixir of life and Joy the blueprint for achievement. Beauty, compassion and forgiveness weave perception and create connection. Infinity is grasped as an awakening into the ever evolving mystery of the Now moment. Time is seen as a fractal of Infinity where the Now locates, attention focuses and intention directs.

Nature is Light. Light is the interplay of the dance of particles in the known cosmos of Love. Light is the breath of The Divine. In Light, are the codes of all life playing a symphony of Love. Love is all there is. As you are in your heart. In Peace. In Love. Know that you are loved beyond measure. Know that we are in a New Earth where we all celebrate our magnificence. Dream it and it will Be.

HOW TO REBUILD THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL SYSTEM AND SAVE THE PLANET

By Benjamin Fulford, 10-10-2008

With a brand new financial system built from scratch, it would be possible to end world poverty and stop environmental destruction within a month. The reason is simple; we have been blinded from reality by a hypnotic pyramid scheme known as the world financial system. The financial system is nothing more than the process of deciding what humanity will do in the future. In other words, it is fundamentally nothing more than mass psychology. Thus, if humanity changed their collective psychology about how to run the planet, it could decide, within a few days, to care for the poor and stop destroying nature. It is simply a matter of making the collective decision to do so. That is all.

Before offering one example of how a new system could function, let us look at what exists now. For a long time certain privately owned central banks, most notoriously the Federal Reserve Board and the Bank of England, have been turning this planet into a hellish slave pyramid. At the bottom are poor innocent creatures being burned to death by starving third world farmers moving on from depleted soil to find fresh farmland to feed their hungry children. The innocent creatures have no value because the global financial system considers them worth zero unless they are turned into "products." Thus the poor of the world pass what little income they are able to glean from the destroyed rain forest up to the next step of the pyramid. They would be the small-time merchants who peddle mostly goods made in faraway lands for a teeny profit. And so the up the pyramid we go, past bribed leaders who sell their countries natural resources for a pittance and ignore environmental protection rules in exchange for huge bribes. If they try to stand up for their people and ask for a fair price, the Western peoples are fooled with a fake story into supporting a "war" against an "evil dictator."

Further up the pyramid we find the brainwashed populations of the Western world who support endless wars because they have been fooled into thinking it is for "human rights" and to spread "democracy." They mostly live lives of meaningless hedonism enabled by the tribute payments they have been receiving from the poorest countries. Both their education systems and their media have been subverted so long ago that they rarely wake up to the fact they have been brainwashed all their lives. If they do, they are "taken care of."

Next up we find the pigs of the system. These are the ultra-rich who know the true masters are the hyper-rich who make their money by printing paper. Although many of them actually make real things and thus contribute to humanity, they go along with this con-job because they are both bribed and scared of being killed by hired goons.

Now let us look at how the fiat money system controlled by the hyper-rich works. What they do is create money out of nothing, usually as digits in a computer. They then "lend" this money to the people who have to pay it back with "interest." The end result is an upwards flow of tribute to an elite few at the top in exchange for nothing. Up the pyramid goes real stuff, down the pyramid goes paper worth "nothing."

On a smaller scale this sort of thing is known as a pyramid scheme. On a global scale it is still a pyramid scheme. Pyramid schemes end when they run out of new people ready to join the bottom of the pyramid. The global pyramid scheme is ending because we are running out nature to destroy and people to oppress. The situation is so dire that 90% of the world's savings are going to feed a hungry Anglo-American Israeli military machine that is being used to suppress the people of the planet. As they say, you can't squeeze blood from a rock, so the situation now has come to the point where the pyramid is collapsing.

What we need to do now is to rebuild the global financial system from scratch. One approach would be to stop the digital printing presses and give people in bankrupt America/England and Israel etc. enough cash for a month or so to tide them over until the new system was built. We would then need to do an inventory of the planet earth. It would assign value to everything on the planet, forests, oceans, people etc. Any money in the old system that could be connected to real things like land and factories, would remain in the hands of its previous owners. Any money that was made from "nothing" would be reassigned to the forests, oceans and poor peoples of the world.

The next step would be to gather all the wisest people to come up with the details of a better way of navigating into the future. This would involve creating a harmonious balance between nature, markets and people. The end result should be that humanity as a whole creates more life and wealth than it destroys. In other words never again must humanity become an engine of destruction. Humanity can then go out into the universe creating new gardens of Eden everywhere.

GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE...BUSH HAS REACHED TWO GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENTS

By Stanislav Mishin

Many of Bush's critics have voiced the opinion that Bush's presidency has accomplished nothing and has resulted in only failures. I disagree. Quite frankly, Bush and his Neocon enablers and world wide puppets have reached two milestones previously believed unreachable. The most interesting point of both is that they were reached with little conscious thought.

In the US there is a word that was coined specifically for the 911 and Afghanistan periods: blowback. It means the unintentional consequences that beset those who do various deeds without actually contemplating what may be the results.

The first of these unbelievable Bush accomplishments resulted from his misguided and mismanaged invasion of Iraq.

The Arabs, especially the Muslim Arabs, as a race are a very fractious and suspicious people, who mistrust each other's clans and tribes, let alone nations. Saddam Hussein, a socialist dictator with a penchant for destroying Islamics in his own domain, was of course a "prime" target for ouster by the leaders of the Axis of Hypocrisy and their Farse on Terror. The invasion of Iraq, mandated on a mutable reason that is yet to be nailed down and continues to change as needed, led to the replacement of Saddam with an set of Islamic parties and the rise of Iran as the undisputed local power. These and other blow backs were minor, of course, compared to Bush's main accomplishment.

In one fell move, Bush was able to unite the fractious Arab street against the US, but unite them he did. At no time, not even during the Crusades, have the Muslim Arabs been so united against one enemy or series of enemies. The US/UK invasion was heavy handed failed to involve other Arab regimes, with the exception of the leadership of the absolutely corrupt Saudi and Kuwaiti monarchies.

What unfolded for America and its allies was a long and bitter and still continuing war, where the Arab street has poured in fighters from across their sphere. What was supposed to be an easy walk through, a painless victory that Neocons dreamed off, has turned out to be a massive expense and a bleeding sore that has never healed and has defined much of the Bush presidency.

Never one to take such fame and success without trying harder and proving that more could be done, Bush, his Neocons and a local puppet named Saakashvili set out to again do the impossible. Thus started the suffering of a small people in a small land named South Ossetia.

Bush's puppet, with the sweet words of the Neocons in his ears, eating his fevered brain, launched a war of genocide against the South Ossetians, exterminating women and children, razing villages, destroying Orthodox churches, even though the Georgians themselves are Orthodox, even running tanks through grave yards.

The news of the barbarity of Georgians spread through Russia like wild fire and most affected the North Caucasus. Within a day, nationalities, that once hated each, rushed to volunteer in mass to defend the South Ossetians and revenge against the Georgians and their masters in the Axis of Hypocrisy. In one day, 1,500 Daghistanies came, to stand beside the Chechens (both Muslims and both hate each other), Chechens who were standing beside the Ingushetian who also hate each other and also fought a short civil war with each other. All to defend Ossetians with whom both the Ingushetians and Chechens have fought. Along all of these stood not only Russians and Abkhazians but in particular the long enemies of the Muslims, Russian Cossacks.

That all these peoples would put aside their mutual distrusts and hatreds and unify in such a short time, is truly amazing. What is more amazing is that this was not a desired effect nor a foreseen one. ruly, those making these decisions in the West are clueless and those who follow them do so at their own peril.

THE ODD COUPLE OF GLOBAL SPIRITUALITY

By Kaveh L Afrasiabi, October 2, 2008

Miguel d'Escoto, the current president of the United Nations General Assembly, stole the torch from the world leaders attending the UN gathering in New York last week by single-handedly infusing a new and much-needed energy and importance into his role. It was a moment rarely seen before in the organization's history. Reform of the UN, particularly in regards to empowering the General Assembly, may have stalled, but the real engine for such changes are bold, outspoken figures like d'Escoto, a former Sandanista-sympathetic priest. Such leaders can instill passion and enthusiasm in a UN bureaucracy at present run by veteran bureaucrat secretary general Ban Ki-moon, who after two years is finally beginning to shed his intolerable reticence and bring out the ire within him. In all, the UN has made a minor leap forward.

But, while the secretary general still remains on a steep learning curve, d'Escoto is riding high on a wave of popularity. He has boldly criticized the "shameful and deplorable" world conditions of today, attacked the failed "neo-liberal economic policies" and the Wall Street culture of "greed" and "selfishness" that has left "more than half the world's people" to "languish in hunger and destitution."

At a time of mounting global economic problems, when the US government is on the verge of rescuing Wall Street moguls at taxpayers' expense without slapping even one corporate CEO on the wrist, there is a large audience around the world for the powerful voice of d'Escoto. People want to hear his scathing assessment that the root cause of the current global crisis is the fact that "a small group of global corporations and financial institutions" control the world. D'Escoto wants to democratize the UN by restructuring the Security Council, and he aspires to see a real democratization of global capitalism.

Equally important, d'Escoto wants to pioneer a genuine spiritualization of the UN and, indeed, world politics. This is not so much because the priest in him dictates a perpetual evangelization, but because he is convinced that a cultural change, away from excessive materialism and insufficient spirituality, is a sine qua non for changing world politics in the direction of a more just and egalitarian system.

Indeed, this much was clear in d'Escoto's remarks at an interfaith gathering on the sideline of UN meetings where Iran's president, Mahmud Ahmadinejad, was a keynote speaker. Both men echoed each other in their respective monotheistic beliefs, the prioritization of justice and the need for solidarity with the destitute and the needy. Ahmadinejad professes his own version of Islamic liberation theology that resonates with d'Escoto's liberation theology. This parallel is stronger than in the past given Ahmadinejad's new accent on the compatibility of Islamic and Christian messianism and in light of his UN speech in which he predicted the rise of the Hidden Imam "accompanied by Jesus".

The narrowing of gaps between Shi'ite and Christian apocalypticism was in full display that night as the Iranian president and the president of the UN General Assembly spoke in unison regarding the need for spirit in the spiritless world. Although d'Escoto's discourse, however, seemed a full embrace of Marcuse's lament of the "one-dimensional man", that is, a critique of capitalism's reification of social relations that harkens back to the young Karl Marx.

Interestingly, the former leftist priest from Nicaragua and the former Basij (civilian militia) volunteer in the Iran-Iraq war seemed to share a great deal in their use of leftist-socialistic vocabulary. In fact, Ahmadinejad invoked the term "hegemony" a half dozen times in his speech before the General Assembly.

A Gramscian, anti-hegemonic bloc of Iran and Nicaragua, and other Latin and Central American states opposed to US domination, was thus put on plain display at an inter-religious forum that was supposed to promote the cause of dialogue across religious divides. Yet it was clearly a dual dialogue in which the anti-hegemonic subtext of Ahmadinejad and d'Escoto lurked behind their overtly religious pronunciations, although in contextualizing their thoughts it appears that Latin-left populism, also discernible in the behavior of Brazil's president, Luis Inacio Lula de Silva, has left an indelible mark on the mindset of Iran's Shi'ite leadership.

Of course, this is not to overlook certain dissimilarities, as d'Escoto avoids a fundamentalist diagnosis of global problems as rooted in "forgetting God". Rather, he manifests a pluralistic approach that respects atheistic and agnostic groups and avoids labeling them, while simultaneously stating his own personal predilections and belief system rooted in Christianity.

Such spirited attempts to "bring faith" back on the world stage as an essential element of struggle for justice naturally have their own detractors. This is reflected in a new film, Religulous, by US comedian Bill Maher that mocks world religions basically as irrational and superstitious. Historically, however, hard times have as a rule represented a booming time for religion, as prayer and faith in God act as palliative remedies, prompting greater empathy for the poor and the hungry. This recalls Marx's wisdom that religion brings heart to a 'heartless world". The trick is, of course, how to tap into religion's positive avowal and solidaristic epistemology without at the same time embracing their not-so-enviable dark side that is associated with dogmatism and absolutism.

This is an open-ended question that, perhaps, can be tackled better via in-depth and on-going dialogue among religions. What die-hard secularists in the West, and other parts of the world, fail to understand is that "world-historical religions" are the byproducts of human civilizations that bring harmony as well as discord and division.

This dual role and impact of religion notwithstanding, there are obvious pros and cons to any new wave of "religionization" of world politics. Yet d'Escoto and other like-minded thinkers are on the right track when they place the emphasis on spirituality, and faith in god, as a wellspring of global solidarity. "I was influenced by my father and he instilled this way of thinking in me as a child," d'Escoto told his audience that night, reminding them that the young generation lacks this dimension and has been indoctrinated by an "I culture". The alternative "we culture" spearheaded by the UN, this is what the world desperately needs today, otherwise we are "lost in the mania of capitalist greed."

SYNCHRONICITYCATCHING THE BUG OF SYNCHRONICITY

By Paul Levy

Synchronicities are those moments of "meaningful coincidence" when the boundary dissolves between the inner and the outer. At the synchronistic moment, just like a dream, our internal, subjective state appears, as if materialized in, as and through the outside world. Touching the heart of our being, synchronicities are moments in time in which there is a fissure in the fabric of what we have taken for reality and there is a bleed through from a higher dimension outside of time. Synchronicities are expressions of the dreamlike nature of reality, as they are moments in time when the timeless, dreamlike nature of the universe shines forth its radiance and openly reveals itself to us, offering us an open doorway to lucidity.

Synchronicity was one of Jung's most profound yet least understood discoveries, in part because it cannot be appreciated until we personally step into and experience the synchronistic realm for ourselves. Jung's discovery of synchronicity was in a sense the parallel in the realm of psychology to Einstein's discovery of the law of relativity in physics. Because it is so radically discontinuous with our conventional notions of the nature of reality, the experience of synchronicity is so literally mind-blowing that Jung contemplated this phenomenon for over twenty years before he published his thinking about it. Jung's synchronistic universe was a new world view which embraced linear causality while simultaneously transcending it. A synchronistic universe balances and complements the mechanistic world of linear causality with a realm that is outside of space, time and causality. In a synchronicity, two heterogeneous world-systems, the causal and acausal, interlock and interpenetrate each other for a moment in time, which is both an expression of while creating in the field an aspect of our wholeness to manifest. The synchronistic universe is beginning-less in that we are participating in its creation right now, which is why Jung calls it "an act of creation in time."

To illustrate what he meant by the word synchronicity, Jung brings up an experience he shared with a patient of his. This particular patient was very caught in her head, and the analysis was seemingly going nowhere. She was stuck, trapped in the self-created prison of her own mind. Jung realized there was nothing he could do. In Jung's words, "I had to confine myself to the hope that something unexpected and irrational would turn up, something that would burst the intellectual retort in which she had sealed herself." She had an impressive dream the night before, in which someone offered her a golden scarab – a valuable piece of jewelry. At the moment she was telling Jung the dream, there was a tapping on the office window. Jung opened up the window and a scarabaeid beetle, whose gold-green color closely resembles that of a golden scarab, flew into the room. Jung caught the beetle in his hand, handed it to her and said "Here is your scarab."

The shock of recognition in the synchronistic moment, in which Jung's patient realized her dream of the previous night was being both literally and symbolically enacted in her waking life, pierced through her resistance and cracked her defensive shell wide open. At the moment of synchronistic transmission, a fundamental shift in perception took place within her which inwardly transformed her and made her receptive in a new way. From that point on, Jung commented, "The treatment could now be continued with satisfactory results."

There was no conventional, linear causal link between the patient's dream and the beetle tapping on the window the next day. But there was clearly an equivalence and meaningful connection between the two co-related events which was not based on linear causality In addition, the patient, as an active, egoic agent in space and time, didn't cause or create the synchronicity, which was acausal and happened of its own accord. And yet, in some mysterious way, the beetle tapping on the window was intimately related to her.

To quote Jung, "Synchronicity is no more baffling or mysterious than the discontinuities of physics. It is only the ingrained belief in the sovereign power of causality that creates intellectual difficulties and makes it appear unthinkable that causeless events exist or could ever exist. But if they do, then we must regard them as creative acts, as the continuous creation of a pattern that exists from all eternity, repeats itself sporadically, and is not derivable from any known antecedents." This quote by Jung has an interesting footnote which adds the following, "Continuous creation is to be thought of not only as a series of successive acts of creation, but also as the eternal presence of the one creative act."

Synchronicities are cystallizations in linear time of a nonlinear, acausal, atemporal process, windows into the realm outside of time and space, a world in which we ourselves are active participants in and of "the one creative act." Synchronicities are both timeless and temporal, which is to say they are possessed of a double nature with regard to time. Synchronicities can be deeply religious and mystical experiences, expanding our sense of who we imagine we are and transforming our intimate relationship with ourselves.

Synchronicities are expressions of the dreamlike nature of reality - like with Jung's patient, our night dreams can manifest in our waking life, but also in the sense that, just like with our dreams at night, our inner process is given shape to through the seemingly outer world. In a night dream, the seemingly outer dreamscape is synchronistically reflecting the internal psyche of the dreamer, as the dream is not separate from the inner world but is nothing other than the psyche within apparently externalized. There is an instantaneous correspondence between the inner and outer worlds not because they are two separate dimensions that are communicating faster than the speed of light, but because they are inseparably united as one seamless, already unified, whole continuum.

Being unmediated manifestations of the dreamlike nature of reality, we can interpret synchronicities just like we would interpret a dream. Mythologically speaking, a scarab is an archetypal symbol which represents, as in ancient Egypt, death/rebirth and transformation. Gold symbolically represents the highest value. Being offered a golden scarab in both her night and waking dreams was a form of synchronistic notarization by the archetype, highlighting its arrival on the scene. The synchronicity was an expression of - as well as the doorway through which - Jung's patient was personally enacting an archetypal process of the renewal of consciousness. The synchronicity bore the stamp of the excited archetype, revealing to her and making real in time that she was actually taking part in a timeless, mythic drama of death and rebirth. Catapulting her out of the limited frame of reference of the conceptual mind, the synchronistic moment helped her access a deeper part of herself, as well as re-connecting her to the universe at large in which she lived.

Synchronicities are both the vehicle through which and an expression of the fact that we are waking up to the dreamlike nature of the universe. Being genuine wake up calls from the awakened part of ourselves, synchronicities are emanations of the part of ourselves that is waking up projected into time.

What I call the "deeper, dreaming Self," is the part of us that is the dreamer of both our night and waking dreams. Being "nonlocal," which is to say not bound by the conventional laws of space and time, as well as being multi-dimensional, the deeper, dreaming Self can simultaneously express itself through inner experiences such as inspirations and dreams as well as by attracting events in the seemingly outer world so as to coagulate itself in embodied form.

The deeper, dreaming Self was simultaneously the dreamer of the golden scarab in the patient's night dream, the inspiration for her to tell Jung the dream in their session, the source of the beetle which was tapping on the window at exactly the right moment, the impulse which animated Jung to open the window, catch the beetle, offer it to his patient and say what he said, as well as the patient's inner, revelatory experience of transformation which was the result. Being multi-faceted and multi-channeled, the deeper, dreaming Self nonlocally arranged all these dimensions enfolded within the field into a singular psycho-physical experiential gestalt in which the oneness of spirit and matter became visible.

Interestingly, the synchronicity with Jung and his patient was an experience in which Jung himself played an active, participatory role. As the synchronistic moment was irrupting into time, he found himself dreamed up by his patient to pick up and play out a role in her dreaming process. At the moment of synchronicity, Jung went from passively sitting in the audience hearing about her process to being drafted into the act and stepping into a scene in the play of his patient's mind. Not merely witnessing his patient's synchronicity, he found himself spontaneously enacting it with her, playing his part and saying his lines perfectly, as if sent by central casting. In offering her the precious jewel of a golden scarab symbolizing death and rebirth, Jung spontaneously found himself being an open instrument for the synchronistic universe to manifest itself through him into materialized form and express itself in our world.

Jung and his patient were reciprocally collaborating in dreaming up their shared synchronistic event together. They became "quantum entangled," interdependently and inseparably merged in the co-creation of each other's synchronicity. The synchronicity was not monopolized by Jung's patient, as it didn't solely belong just to her. Participating in his patient's synchronicity, Jung was at the same time just as much having a living experience in and of his own synchronicity. Even though the synchronicity was a reflection of his patient's inner landscape, it was simultaneously a synchronistic reflection of a deeper process taking place within Jung, too. For Jung to be hearing a patient's dream of a golden scarab and to have a golden scarab fly into his office was an externalized, synchronistic reflection of the archetypal process of death and rebirth which was happening inside of him. It is noteworthy that a synchronistic event can collectively reflect and be mutually shared by more than one person in both similar and singularly unique ways.

To experience a synchronistic event is to necessarily be changed at our core. No one could have convinced Jung's patient that her synchronistic experience should be dismissed as a mere coincidence, as she had an inner knowing of its meaningfulness due to how it transformed her. She no longer lived in a dis-enchanted universe.

Synchronicities by their very nature demand our active participation, as they are not something we can just passively watch and remain unaffected by. Imbued with a deeper fragrance of meaning, a synchronistic event is a revelation which contains within it a potency to insinuate itself into our very being and alter us from within. Synchronicities can transform us on a cellular level, as they are crystallizations into and out of the space of consciousness itself that have form-ulated themselves into our dimension as an expression of the part of us that is already awakened. Synchronicities inherent revelatory nature is ultimately offering us the realization that we are playing an active, participatory and hence, co-creative role in the unfoldment of the universe.

Registering the revelation embedded in the synchronistic moment is to necessarily have an expansion of consciousness, as the lens through which we view, interpret and place meaning on the nature of our experience has broadened by and through the very synchronicity itself. Because it is rich in the nutrient of meaning, a synchronistic event affects and deepens our state of awareness and perception, which is another way of saying that synchronicities are expressions of consciousness itself. Just like symbols in a dream, synchronicities do not exist objectively, separate from our own mind.

Synchronistic moments feel like grace, as they induce in us the feeling that we are right where we are supposed to be. Being numinous, synchronicities have a strong feeling component and emotional charge, which is both an expression of while simultaneously flowing into, influencing and altering the surrounding field of consciousness. A manifestation of the field as a whole, synchronicities are a field phenomenon, and to receive their full blessing we need to relate to them as such. Synchronicities are a reflection of the deeper, underlying nonlocal field of consciousness waking up to itself through us. The gift of synchronicity cannot be realized from the point of view which imagines we exist as a separate person who is "other" than the field in which we are arising. Jung and his patient's shared synchronistic event was a living experience of being connected to something greater than themselves. Synchronicities are acute outbreaks of the archetypal, collective mind-field crystallized into our personal sphere through the third-dimensional medium of time and space.

Synchronicities are glimpses of transcendental unity, what in Latin is called the "unus mundus," the one world. The unus mundus is the unitary and unifying realm which underlies, pervades and contains all dimensions of our experience. The unus mundus, just like the deeper, dreaming Self, is a psycho-physical reality, a universe beyond time and outside of space in which psyche and matter are inseparably co-joined as interconnected parts of a deeper, unified field. The unus mundus is a world in which we have already woken up. It is a realm beyond duality, beyond the opposites, beyond even the concept of beyond. In the unus mundus, opposites like matter and psyche form the outer and inner aspects of the same transcendental reality. Revealing its designs through events in the outer world as well as the psychic landscape within, the unus mundus is actualizing itself in time as we divine our wholeness through the synchronistic clues encoded within the fabric of experience itself.

Paradoxically, synchronicities are a living, unmediated materialization of our unconscious, while simultaneously being a nonlocalized manifestation of the part of us that's waking up into a more expanded consciousness. Like a genuine symbol, synchronicities are utterances of the soul, as they contain, are an expression of and unite the opposites. Synchronicities are soul-making in action.

ARCHETYPES

Synchronicities occur when we step out of the personal dimension of our experience and access what is called the archetypal dimension of experience. If we are absorbed in and identified with the person-alistic perspective, we person-alize our experience, imagining we exist as a separate person isolated from the space around us. We thus become entranced into a particularized point of view which develops a seemingly autonomous life of its own and becomes a self-reinforcing feedback loop, a true "self" fulfilling prophecy. To become identified with the fixed reference point of the separate self limits our freedom, entraps our creative potency and hinders our compassion. To the extent we recognize the dreamlike nature of our situation, however, we step out of a person-alistic and reductive viewpoint based on linear causality (i.e., the perspective of the illusory skin-encapsulated ego) into a more archetypal perspective in which we find ourselves playing roles in an eternal, mythic and divine drama of incarnation.

The synchronicity with Jung's patient was revealing something not just about her inner, personal process, but was a revelation of a deep, archetypal process which exists within the collective unconscious itself. The synchronicity was simultaneously revealing a dynamic which is both personal and collective – it is at the moment of being truly deadlocked that a deeper archetypal dynamic within the psyche becomes activated and nonlocally expresses itself synchronistically in and through the canvas of the seemingly outer world, as well as within ourselves. To quote Jung, "The patient with the scarab found herself in an ‘impossible' situation because the treatment had got stuck and there seemed to be no way out of the impasse…It is this kind of situation that constellates the archetype with the greatest regularity." What is true individually is also true collectively - when we, as a species, find ourselves in an "impossible" situation with no exit plan, it is this very kind of dilemma which constellates the healing and revelatory archetypal realm to become synchronistically activated.

Though it sounds like a big, fancy word, an "archetype" is something we all experience and know intimately from the inside. Indefinable, an archetype is like a psychological instinct or informational field of influence which patterns our psyche, our experience of the world around us and how we experience ourselves. Jung calls archetypes "typical modes of apprehension." An archetype is like the underlying grid-line or blue print which in-forms and structures how we perceive, interpret and respond to our experience. The personal dimension literalizes our experiences, while the archetypal dimension symbolizes, mythologizes and dreams into our experiences with the utmost creative imagination. Archetypes are the image-making factor in the psyche, informing and giving shape to the images in our mind and the dreams of our soul, and as such, they insist on being approached imaginatively.

When an archetype gets activated within us, it nonlocally constellates itself outwardly in the surrounding field. Conversely, when an archetype is activated in the seemingly outer field, it simultaneously constellates and is a synchronistic reflection of the same activated archetype within ourselves. An activated archetype's magnetic field-of-force orders and organizes the entire field to synchronistically re-arrange itself so as to embody the archetype "in form." The archetype is thus pure inform-ation. Archetypes nonlocally exert their in-forming influence through the frictionless and super-fluid medium of the collective unconscious itself. The archetypal, synchronistic realm vaporizes illusory boundaries – revealing spirit - and builds bridges which mediate and connect the inner and the outer, the conscious and the unconscious, and dreaming and waking.

Synchronicities occur at times of deep archetypal excitation in the field, which is to say moments of crisis, transition, creative tension and dynamic intensity. The archetype that gets activated by the field precipitates itself into the field as a synchronistic expression of the very field which activated it. Periods of disturbance in our world are both a manifestation of and trigger for a corresponding archetype in the collective unconscious of humanity to draw to itself everything it needs to synchronistically render itself visible in form. Times of distress, both individually and collectively, catalyze a deeper, self-regulating and healing archetypal process to awaken within the human psyche which simultaneously expresses itself throughout the whole universe.

There is a profound and intimate synchronistic correlation between what is happening deep within the collective unconscious of humanity and what is playing out collectively on the world stage. Just like a dream, whatever we are unconscious of gets dreamed up and out-pictured in and as our waking dreamscape. What plays out in one person's night dream is a reflection of their inner process; similarly what is getting dreamed up by all six and a half billion of us on the world stage is a reflection of a process going on deep inside of the collective unconscious of humanity.

When a formless archetype of the collective unconscious is at the point of becoming conscious and incarnating, it has an energetic charge that will seize people, get them in its grip and compel them to act itself out so as to give shape and form to itself. What we are unconscious of and don't remember, we act out in the outside world.

Like the underlying, invisible axial system is the skeleton of an emerging crystal, the archetypes of the collective unconscious in-form, pattern and structure our unconscious itself. The inner archetypal dimension is revealing itself by influencing and animating our unconscious, causing us to act out and give shape to the archetypal realm in the world theater. This is happening both individually and collectively on the world stage.

Archetypes can possess individuals or whole nations. Archetypes bedazzle consciousness in such a way that it becomes blind to its own assumed standpoint. When an archetype takes over a person, group or nation, they can be said to be the incarnation or the revelation of the formless, transpersonal archetype in human form, as they synchronistically em-body and mirror back to us this archetypal dynamic which exists deep inside of all of us. When the archetypal realm incarnates, something of the eternal, imperishable dimension synchronistically reveals itself to us as it enters the realm of time and embodiment. Synchronicities are revelations in the nick of time. As our present moment in time indicates, whether we continue to destroy ourselves or wake ourselves up depends upon whether or not we recognize what is synchronistically being revealed to us.

What we don't remember, we aren't associated with. Our dis-memberment from our experience and dis-association from a part of ourselves polarizes and empowers our split-off part to project itself outside of ourselves and express itself by acting itself out in the outside world. We will either become possessed by our split-off part and unconsciously act it out in the world, or we will project it out so that we dream up the seemingly outer universe to act it out for us. This is another way of saying that our waking universe is a function of our consciousness, or lack thereof.

When an archetype synchronistically manifests itself in full-bodied form in the outside world, its full blown localized revelation in time is necessarily correlated to - and an unmediated manifestation of - a more fundamental, nonlocal condition which simultaneously exists both outside of time and inside the timeless part of ourselves. An archetype synchronistically revealing itself in the outside world is a reflection that this same condition is in the process of being inwardly realized. The outer, synchronistic materialization of the inner, archetypal process is itself the vehicle through which the archetypal process both actualizes itself in space and time and is inwardly realized.

The spirit that animates synchronicities, if we can speak of such immaterial matters, is the same spirit which inspires our dreams at night. This spirit, the aforementioned "unus mundus" or "deeper, dreaming Self," is dreaming our dreams at night, our life during the day, as well as ourselves. The unus mundus/deeper, dreaming Self arranges situations in our life, both micro

and macrocosmically as a way of synchronizing itself, which propels us into greater alignment with the implicate field of open possibility, as we refine and re-find ourselves in each moment anew. To the extent we realize the dreamlike nature of reality, the universe becomes a continually unfolding oracle as we become a revelation to ourselves.

In a synchronicity, the conjunction of two cosmic principles, namely psyche and matter, takes place, and in the process a real exchange of attributes occurs as well. In such situations the psyche behaves as if it were material and matter behaves as if it were an expression of the psyche. Synchronicities are emanations of the sacred marriage in alchemy, where the opposites of spirit and matter reciprocally inform each other as they unite in a timeless embrace.

Instead of orienting ourselves one-sidedly just to the spiritual to the exclusion of matter, or material matters disconnected from spirit, Jung felt that the psychological/spiritual task of our unique time in history is to live and incarnate the realization of the unity of spirit and matter which synchronistic events are revealing to us. Instead of, or in addition to the spirit coming down from the heavens above, spirit's guidance is emerging and rising up from within matter itself and is waiting to be recognized.

Subjectively, synchronistic phenomena evoke in us the feeling that we are not alone, that there is a silent partner that we share our lives with who is dreaming with us. It is as if there is an autonomous factor deep within us arranging our experiences so as to help us to wake up. Part and parcel of a synchronistic event's numinosity is its sense of meeting the "wholly other," whether it be within ourselves or through the medium of the outside world. Paradoxically, through synchronicities we connect with ourselves by becoming introduced to the part of ourselves which is other than who we imagine ourselves to be.

Recognizing the synchronistic matrix which patterns our experience empowers us to be creative, co-operative and active partners in our own awakening process. The more we are open for synchronicities to happen, the more they happen, for synchronicities, just like symbols in a dream, are not separate from the dreamer, which in this case is us. To the extent we recognize the dreamlike nature of our waking universe is the degree to which our life is experienced as synchronistic. Once we become lucid in our waking dream and recognize that we live in a synchronistic universe by our very nature, the universe has no choice but to shape-shift and reflect back our realization by materializing itself synchronistically.

Being initiatory rites of passage, synchronicities empower us to view life synchronistically. Seeing through synchronistic eyes has nothing to do with overlaying a fabricated interpretation upon events to make them appear as if they are synchronistic. Seeing synchronistically simply involves recognizing the underlying synchronistic web which is always weaving itself through our experience. This is analogous to how being inside of a night dream and viewing the dream as if it were a dream would have the instantaneous effect of allowing the dream to more profoundly manifest its dreamlike nature. Changing our perspective within the dream didn't cause the dream to become a dream; the dream had always been a dream, we just hadn't recognized it before. Similarly, we live in a synchronistic universe, and by recognizing this, we allow the universe to manifest itself more synchronistically.

Synchronicities are like "cultures" from another dimension which create and enrich culture in ours. Like a bug in the system, synchronicities are cultures which virally propagate themselves through the field of consciousness, which means that synchronistic awareness is contagious. Synchronistic awareness, the consciousness that recognizes the synchronistic nature of the universe and has become lucid in the dream of life, is something we can turn each other onto and catch from one another. Synchronistic awareness is the invocation and revelation of the "eternal presence of the one creative act" in which we are all continually sharing, partaking and participating. Synchronistic awareness activates and reproduces itself in and through the field, as it is self-generating in nature, which is to say it is birthing itself through our consciousness into the world.

Just like Jung, we can help each other catch the "bug" of synchronicity. We can co-operatively cultivate a net-work of allies who creatively collaborate in bringing forth the precious jewel of synchronicity. The archetypal field becomes greatly potentiated for synchronicities when we get "in sync" with other people who are also waking up to the synchronistic universe. A field which is lubricated for stimulating and stabilizing lucidity gets conjured up when we get in phase with each other through the shared, open heart of synchronistic awareness. Co-operatively engaged, synchronistic awareness activates our collective genius and creates true culture in that it effortlessly, endlessly, nonlocally and virally transmits and fractally reiterates itself throughout time and space. Shared synchronistic awareness magnetically draws and attracts the universe into itself, materializing itself in, as and through life itself, creating a revelatory universe in the process.

THE NEED OF THE HOUR: THE GOLDEN FLAME OF ABUNDANCE

by Patricia Diane Cota-Robles

Lightworkers around the world have made the heart commitment to assist with the necessary purging that is taking place in the global economy. This is a natural part of the cleansing that must occur in order for the archetypes of God's Infinite Abundance and Eternal Peace to tangibly manifest in the lives of awakening Humanity.

In order for the patterns of perfection for the New Earth to physically manifest, the overwhelming corruption, greed, fraud, selfishness, ignorance and abuse of power, which has been the order of the day for far too long in our global economic system, must be exposed and eliminated. This is exactly what we are witnessing at this time. Any attempt to reestablish these negative behavior patterns at the expense of the masses of Humanity will fail. These destructive patterns cannot be sustained in the 5th-Dimensional frequencies of the New Earth.

As the archetypes for God's Infinite Abundance and Eternal Peace filter into the physical, etheric, mental and emotional strata of Earth, everything that conflicts with these patterns of perfection is being pushed to the surface to be healed and transmuted back into Light. Things seem very difficult at this time. That is due to the fact that as we watch the news and read our newspapers we easily see the horrific patterns of greed, fraud, corruption and the inequitable distribution of wealth that are being exposed. What we do not see as easily, is the incredible Light that is pushing these obsolete patterns of separation, fear and the abuse of power to the surface.

It is not the Divine Intent of our Father-Mother God for this imperative cleansing of the global economic system to take awakening Humanity down the tubes financially. Quite the contrary. The Divine Intent is for these old behavior patterns, which have caused so much pain and suffering throughout the world, to be quickly exposed and eliminated. Then the patterns of God's Infinite Abundance and Eternal Peace will be easily established as the order of the day on the New Earth.

The most important thing Lightworkers can do to accelerate this process of healing is to focus our attention on the new patterns of Abundance and Peace. The Beings of Light in the Realms of Illumined Truth have given us wonderful invocations, visualizations and decrees to assist us in doing just that. These gifts from On High are designed to help us keep the focus of our thoughts, words, feelings and actions on the Truth of what is occurring instead of on the fear-based patterns of our broken global economy.

Please join in consciousness with Lightworkers all over the world as you empower the patterns of perfection for our global economy and for the New Earth. Go within to the deepest recesses of your heart, and join in one-pointed consciousness as you invoke the full Divine Potential of God's Infinite Abundance and Eternal Peace.

These invocations are stated in the first person so that we will experience them tangibly in our individual lives, and simultaneously, we will invoke this Light for all Humanity as we serve as surrogates on behalf of every man, woman and child on Earth.

THE GOLDEN FLAME OF ABUNDANCE

Through the Power of God blazing in my heart and the hearts of ALL Humanity, I joyously receive and accept the gift of God's Golden Flame of Eternal Peace and Infinite Abundance. On the wings of this Divine Light, I Ascend into the Causal Body of God. From this realm of Divine Consciousness, I have the clear inner knowing that GOD IS MY SUPPLY!

I relinquish now, in the name of God, I AM, all of the power I have ever given to lack and limitation through my thoughts, words, actions and feelings in any time frame or dimension, both known or unknown. I relinquish now, in the name of God, I AM, all of the beliefs I have ever had that were based in poverty consciousness.

From this moment forward, I consecrate and dedicate my very life to be the Open Door through which the new, frequencies of the Golden Flame of Eternal Peace and Infinite Abundance will now flow to bless me, my family, friends, coworkers and ALL Humanity.

As I breathe, think, speak, feel and act, the Presence of God within me is perpetually expanding the Golden Light of Eternal Peace and Infinite Abundance to all life evolving on Earth. And so it is.

Through all levels of Divine Consciousness I now decree three times: I AM! I AM! I AM! The eternally sustained manifestation of God's infinite supply of money and every good thing I require to assist me in my service to the Light, NOW made manifest and sustained by Holy Grace.

In deep love and appreciation for my glorious gift of Life, I consecrate my Heart and Soul to be the Open Door for the patterns of perfection from the Causal Body of God until the New Earth is manifest, and all Life evolving here is wholly Ascended and FREE.

It is done! And so it is! Beloved I AM, Beloved I AM, Beloved I AM.

WHERE ARE WE IN THE CURRENT EVOLUTIONARY JUMP?

By Xavier Hermes Send E-Mail ~ Sunday, 21 September 2008, 4:15 a.m.

So – I am going to lay out an attempt to summarise just what is happening to the evolution of consciousness here on planet Earth. How does our evolving consciousness overlay the great dramas happening in our physical realm? How is our reality really evolving, and what might be the ground rules? Is there really an evolutionary jump under way? Here are the headlines for some conclusions I am working with:

1) Practically everything we see around us, the day-to-day components of our lives, is a falsehood, a false reality based on gross manipulation by a small elite who, until recently, had full control of most of us by doing this.
2) Most of what we observe going on is a combination of noise and theatre, mostly for public benefit / manipulation, and very, very rarely representing any kind of truth.
3) Within this false scenario, we have been a part of a victim / abuser consciousness. We need now to rise above it, to achieve the fullest measure of personal responsibility and take a new direction.
4) Consciousness and upcoming cosmic alignments are combining to create the opportunity for a New Reality to emerge. It is not in the same "place" as the old one. The old and the new are separated by frequency.
5) The New Reality is at a significantly higher frequency than the old duality.
6) The path to the New Reality is thus one of rising frequency. There are some simple guidelines as to how to proceed. They need to be understood and embraced in order to give each of us a basis on which to navigate.
7) The basic ground rules for the New Reality are already in place, largely manifested by the higher visions, plans, prayers and invocations of that small minority of relatively enlightened people who have been pro-active on this account.
8) Those who stand against the falsehoods and have a higher vision of human potential and possibility are arguably the heretics of the false reality. It is their job to break down the barriers of falsehood and release that potential – a most important role in service to humanity at this time!
9) In order to follow up on this ‘ground-breaking' we need a critical mass of willing people to undertake the co-creation and ensure the manifestation of this New Reality. We need to find the others – or rather resonate so as to draw them to us. They are that small percentage of humanity who are ready to act, and who will actually do so.
10) Raising your personal frequency in the process of taking the Path has the huge beneficial impact of entraining others. As you move upward, this impact is exponential in its effect. Someone operating consistently in the higher levels of human consciousness can counterbalance the negativity of many thousands of people still trapped at the lowest levels. (for details, see the book ‘Power vs Force' by Dr David Hawkins). The small percentage, therefore, represent huge power to change the way that things are and advance our reality.
11) There are a rapidly growing number of people able to operate at the higher level – this growth, too, is exponential.
12) To be truly effective in this task, we need to move away from the assumptions, habits, pressures, systems and institutions of the old and rapidly dying duality.
13) Every person who commits themselves to the Path becomes a leader with others. This mass leadership is a vital component in what is to happen. It is a vehicle for every person on that path to stand completely in their own power – supported and encouraged by those others around them who are also on the path.
14) We then, together, become the Architects of What Happens Next, co-creating with those others who are on the same journey.
15) The ability to manifest what we want (which, in this context is always dedicated to higher purpose) is enhanced as we move upward through frequency – especially if like-minded groups, each individually holding the higher frequencies, choose to come together for this work. The false reality, being based on devisiveness and low-frequency activity cannot stand against the power and creativity of people united at high frequency, and holding / manifesting a higher vision for humaity and the Earth.
16) In the process, who we are to become is profoundly different from who we have been. The potential and the intent is that each of us is birthing the true galactic human within ourselves, and activating the same opportunity for many others by being energetically infectious. This is the core of the evolutionary jump, the eventual fulfilment of the full human blueprint (after a hugely long journey of soul development through our many incarnations), a blueprint that has never yet fully activated.

Now, how does the latter part of this list sound as the beginnings of a prospectus? Xavier Hermes

P.S. Your feedback and additions are very welcome (should you accept it, your homework for today.....). Subject to having time to do so I shall post all cohesive and timely contributions (however challenging).

HUMANITY'S BUTTERFLY MOMENT!

Dearest Hearts,

As always, I pray you are well as we find ourselves at the threshold of our unique and personal reincarnations. We are all in the labor and delivery rooms of our new lives. The sense ofnew beginnings, new life is palpable, or perhaps the knowing of endings is the more predominant awareness for some, depending on your lens of perception. Whichever it is for you, it is good. It is a blessing.

The Emerging New World, the emerging new human is no longer a mere topic of conversation or a prediction. We are being made well aware that the ways in which we used to operate in life doesn't interest us any longer, doesn't serve us any longer and we truly don't have the energy or drive for it any longer. That which once enticed us, no longer does. The road many of us have long traveled has ended. It is of vital importance to not attempt extending a road that has no support. And, it is of vital importance to know that something greater than the road issupporting you as you begin to ascend to higher ground.

I know many may still be feeling pain and the "sense" of loss after some incredibly tough energetic months, and some are walking around concerned with the void they seem to be in, and judging it as something wrong. Nothing is wrong. The pain, sense of loss the void and even lack of preference and lack of energy is coming from your Divine Self being stabilized. This is a massive transformation and transmutation.

Divine Self stabilizes when human nature and former ego identity is moved out of its way. Seemingly cemented in ego identities and root bound human natures don't give way easily and both needed this necessary round of a big push to be removed from their former positions. It's like a baby being pushed out of the womb. First there is pain and then delivery. We are being delivered to what we have longed for, our Divine Natures, our natural not "normal" Self void of internal warring, duality and polarity while in human form, so please don't fight yourrebirth. It bears the markings of an extraordinary being, beginning a new life at a slower pace with deeper meaning.

Wherever you are, take a deep and steady breath in. Let it go all the way in and fill every corner of your being with the Light of God. Breathe out a sigh of relief as the final inappropriate reflections of Ego identity is being removed.

The following is what I received in meditation and I share it with you, as it is relevant to your rebirth as well as my own: "Once your Divine Natures are stabilized you are going to receivean assignment from the Universe." I was told, "The assignment will be a plan of graceful action that will lead you right into what you came to planet Earth to do in regard to inauguratingyour shift from fate into destiny, from human nature into Divine Nature. It won't, like in times gone by, define you, for remember, you are defined. You are God formed. It will however fulfill you, something that few humans have truly had the experience of... being fulfilled. Though many have accomplished much during this incarnation, accomplishmentand fulfillment are not the same.

"Everything you have done and been up to this point in your life will have prepared you for your Divine assignment. What it will be may surprise many of you, because your mind and egowill likely tell you that you can't do it or it's just "not your nature." Most of humanity has been consensually living with a false nature. Your assignment will assist you greatly inrediscovering your natural nature not your normal behavior and balance will be restored. You will look in awe at the Divine workings of your life."

"If you have made space within you and made peace with no longer claiming and chasing a false identity, what is meant to be yours is on its way into you, unhindered by grace in what humans might call a magical way. In truth it is delivery of a promise made long ago before you took on earthly form. We have always had an agreement that if you did your part to remember the Truth and the Way of your being, I would do My part. For those that are awakening into a deeper and more meaningful way, expect delivery. Each has free will to accept orreject anything. Know that you are each watched over, not looked over, and you are deeply loved."

"You are living in the times of amazing grace, whether you realize that or not; you are." Planet Earth is no longer a schoolroom where you have to learn lesson after lesson after lessonnless you desire the confinement of a classroom. Certainly there will be opportunities to help you refine your Divine Nature, though you need not suffer, as your human nature seemed toreadily accept. This is humanity's butterfly moment and you can, if you wish, fly free."

In closing of this part I will share with you that each morning I prepare my day by chanting, remembering and embracing this truth that Michael Stillwater so beautifully wrote and sings in the song" Heart of The Mother" on the CD "Chant Wave." "I Am One with the Mother, I Am One with Love, I Am One with the Father, I Am One with God. Help me remember. Help meremember." The music and energy of this song, especially when chanted, literally shifts the cells of my being, along with my state of mind.

PHOTON BELT A PRIMARY DRIVER FOR OUR NEW REALITY?

By: Xavier Hermes
Date: Tuesday, 19 August 2008, 11:25 p.m.

There are vast influxes of energy coming into the planet at this time, frequencies that are not readily measured by those systems currently available for this kind of ‘cosmic-inbound' energy measurement. Such energies are both beyond the frequency range that scientists expect, or, when they are within range, they are ‘out of sync', being subject to an angular shift. To explain - two identical objects, if they are vibrating at the same frequency but with their atoms spinning in different planes, have no common point of reference and no awareness of each other. They are in different realities, while in precisely the same physical space. It is the same with energies.

As our solar system travels through space, it has a ‘bow wave' running ahead of it. This is where the density of the solar system meets the density of the surrounding space at a speed measured in thousands of miles per second. Although both densities are very low, the huge speed at which we are moving through space means that there is resistance, from which the bow wave is derived. Recently, this bow wave has increased markedly in depth, a sign that we are travelling through a denser area of space than previously. This enhanced bow wave is also sending shock waves of energy through the solar system.

Perhaps this is our entry into the photon belt, a phenomenon once discussed and photographed by scientists, that then became a point of great interest in ‘new age' circles in the 1990's. Most references to it subsequently disappeared – certainly, anything published with a scientific base and attaching credibility did. It was said that the energy of this belt would change ‘every atom on the planet'. My take is that a) the photon belt is a real space phenomenon knowledge of which has now been suppressed, b) that we are indeed starting to enter it, and that c) it will be the means by which those energies that are currently ‘out of sync' will be re-aligned.

At one time it was much reported that our solar system is the seventh such system out from Alcyon, a sun which is also the hub around which these systems circulate in a single plane (as with our planets around our sun). According to these reports, our journey takes a little less than 26,000 years, and we pass through the photon belt twice, taking around 2000 years to pass through it. These periods are said to be ‘golden ages', and I associate them with higher frequencies and harmonics caused by the interaction between the solar systems' great speed through space and higher space density.

So, not only is the planet being flooded with energy in the ‘ordinary' sense, but a vast reservoir of energy that is in a slightly different plane is also building, and our interaction with the photon belt is likely to align these energies with each other.

Energy pouring into the planet has an effect a little like adding energy to ice: there is a period when the ice absorbs the energy and there seems to be no great change – but then, there is a complete and relatively sudden change of state, resulting in water. With the planet, the only possible outcome of building up and then aligning these energies is also a radical change in state.

Welcome to the New Reality!

WELCOME HOME, SOLDIER: NOW SHUT UP

By Paul Rockwell, Guest Commentator for blackcommentator.com

There are two kinds of courage in war - physical courage and moral courage. Physical courage is very common on the battlefield. Men and women on both sides risk their lives, place their own bodies in harm's way. Moral courage, however, is quite rare. According to Chris Hedges, the brilliant New York Times war correspondent who survived wars in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and the Balkans, "I rarely saw moral courage. Moral courage is harder. It requires the bearer to walk away from the warm embrace of comradeship and denounce the myth of war as a fraud, to name it as an enterprise of death and immorality, to condemn himself, and those around him, as killers. It requires the bearer to become an outcast. There are times when taking a moral stance, perhaps the highest form of patriotism, means facing down the community, even the nation."

More and more U.S. soldiers and Marines, at great cost to their own careers and reputations, are speaking publicly about U.S. atrocities in Iraq, even about the cowardice of their own commanders, who send youth into atrocity-producing situations only to hide from the consequences of their own orders. In 2007, two brilliant war memoirs - ROAD FROM AR RAMADI by Staff Sergeant Camilo Mejia, and THE SUTRAS OF ABU GHRAIB by Army Reservist Aidan Delgado - appeared in print. In March 2008, at the Winter Soldier investigation just outside Washington D.C., hard-core U.S. Iraqi veterans, some shaking at the podium, some in tears, unburdened their souls. Jon Michael Turner described the horrific incident in which, on April 28, 2008, he shot an Iraqi boy in front of his father. His commanding officer congratulated him for "the kill." To a stunned audience, Turner presented a photo of the boy's skull, and said: "I am sorry for the hate and destruction I have inflicted on innocent people."

The Winter Soldier investigation was followed by the publication of COLLATERAL DAMAGE: AMERICA'S WAR AGAINST IRAQI CIVILIANS, by Chris Hedges and Laila Al-Arian. Based on hundreds of hours of taped interviews with Iraqi combat veterans, this pioneering work on the catastrophe in Iraq includes the largest number of eyewitness accounts from U.S. military personnel on record.

The Courage to Resist

We cannot understand the psychological and moral significance of military resistance unless we recognize the social forces that stifle conscience and human individuality in military life. Gwen Dyer, historian of war, writes that ordinarily, "Men will kill under compulsion. Men will do almost anything if they know it is expected of them and they are under strong social pressure to comply." "Only exceptional people resist atrocity," writes psychiatrist Robert Lifton.

How much easier it is to surrender to the will of superiors, to merge into the anonymity of the group. It takes uncommon courage to resist military powers of intimidation, peer pressure, and the atmosphere of racism and hate that drives all imperial wars.

Silencing the Witnesses to War

War crimes are collective in nature. Especially in wars based on fraud, soldiers are expected to lie - to their country, to their community, even to themselves. The silencing process begins on the battlefield in the presence of officers, power-holders who seek to nullify the perceptions and personal experience of troops under their command.

In his war memoir, Aidan Delgado describes attempts of his commanders to suppress the truth about Abu Ghraib. First his captain says the Army has nothing to hide, Abu Ghraib is just a rumor. But then the captain continues: "We don't need to air our dirty laundry in public. If you have photos that you're not supposed to have, get rid of them. Don't talk about this to anyone, don't write about it to anyone back home." In the U.S. military, the truth is seditious.

Two years ago, Marine Sergeant Jimmy Massey published his riveting autobiography (written with Natasha Saulnier) in France and Spain. How the Marine Corps - through indoctrination and intimidation - transforms a homeboy from the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina into a professional killer who murders "innocent people for his government" is the subject of Massey's unsettling, impassioned, Jar-head raunchy, and ultimately uplifting memoir, COWBOYS FROM HELL. (No U.S. publisher has picked up the book. A Marine who speaks truth to power is not without honor save in his own country.) In Chapter 18, Jimmy describes a seemingly minor encounter with his captain. Here Massey gives us a look into the process of human denial in its early phase.

Massey has just participated in a checkpoint massacre of civilians. His sense of decency, his sanity, is still in tact. Like any normal human being, he is distraught. The carnage of the war, the imbalance of power between the biggest war machine in history and a suffering people devoid of tanks and air power - the sheer injustice of it all - begins to take its toll on Massey's conscience.

In the wake of the horrific events of the day, his captain is cool. He walks up to Massey and asks; "Are you doing all right, Staff Sergeant?" Massey responds: "No, sir. I am not doing O.K. Today was a bad day. We killed a lot of innocent civilians."

Fully of aware of the civilian carnage, his captain asserts: "No, today was a good day." Relatives wailing, cars destroyed, blood all over the ground, Marines celebrating, civilians dead, and "it was good day"!

The Massey incident goes beyond the mendacity of military life. It concerns the control, the dehumanization of the psyches of our troops. As one Vietnam veteran put it years ago: "They kept fucking with my mind."

In 1994 Jonathan Shay, staff psychiatrist in the Department of Veterans Affairs, published a pioneering work on post traumatic stress – Achilles in Vietnam: Combat Trauma and the Undoing of Character. According to Shay, who recorded volumes of testimony from Vietnam veterans, commanders routinely try to efface the perceptions and the normal feelings of compassion among American troops. Military necessity, including the ever-present need for political propaganda, determines what is perceived, and how it is perceived, in war.

It was an extremely common experience in Vietnam, Shay writes, to be told by military superiors dealing with crime and trauma: "You didn't experience it, it never happened, and you don't know what you know." And it was fairly common for traumatized soldiers to say to reporters: "It didn't happen. And besides, they had it coming." Shay recorded the testimony of one veteran who, in great anger, describes the pressures to alter his perceptions of collective murder.

"Daylight came, and we found out we killed a lot of fishermen and kids...You said to the team, ‘Don't worry about it. Everything's fucking fine.' Because that's what we were getting from upstairs. The fucking colonel says, ‘Don't worry about it. We'll take care of it. We got body count.' They'd be handing out fucking medals for killing civilians. So in your mind you're saying, ‘Ah, fuck it, they're just gooks.' I was sick over it, after this happened. I actually puked my guts out...But see, it's all explained to you by captains and colonels and majors. ‘Fuck it, they was suspects anyways. You guys did a great job. Erase it. It's yesterday's fucking news.'"

Willful Ignorance at Home

The collective process of denial on the battlefield eventually extends to the homeland. Returning soldiers, to be sure, are often honored, but only so long as they remain silent about the realities, the pathos, the absurd evils of war. Willful public ignorance is a source of pain for veterans.

Ernest Hemingway's brilliant short story, Soldier's Home, published in 1925 after World War I, gives us insight into the reluctance of civilians to address the psychic needs of soldiers back from war.

The simply told story is about a young man named Krebs who returns to his home in Oklahoma. At first Krebs does not want to talk about the war. But soon he feels the need to speak - to his family, his neighbors and friends. But as Hemingway tells us, "Nobody wanted to hear about it." His town did not want to learn about atrocities, and "Krebs found that to be listened to at all he had to lie."

There's the rub. His ability to assimilate into civilian life depended on his willingness to fabricate stories about the war. Soldiers are not only expected to lie on behalf of the military during the course of war, they are also expected to participate in homecoming rituals that preserve the civilian fantasy of war's nobility.

In Hemingway's story, the pressure to lie is so powerful, Krebs begins to manufacture stories about his experiences in battle - just to get along, just be able to lead a normal life. Repression, however, is a major cause of mental illness and loneliness. Krebs morale deteriorates. He sleeps late in bed. He loses interest in work. He withdraws into himself.

That's all Hemingway tells us. It's a quietly told story, all the more powerful for its understatement.

There is a connection between Hemingway's war-informed fiction and real life. As Shay notes, there is a tension between a soldier's need to communalize shame and grief and the unwillingness of civilians to listen to troops whom they sent into battle. One Vietnam veteran told the following story:

"I had just come back from Vietnam and my first wife's parents gave a dinner for me and my parents and her brothers and their wives. And after dinner we were all sitting in the living room and her father said: ‘So, tell us what it was like.' And I started to tell them, and I told them. And do you know that within five minutes the room was empty. They were all gone, except my wife. After that I didn't tell anybody what I had seen in Vietnam." Welcome home, soldier. Now shut up.

Notwithstanding clichés and pieties about support for troops, those who promote war are often the least likely to share the burdens and memories of war when soldiers return. When Ron Kovic, who was paralyzed from the chest down during the war in Vietnam, steered his wheelchair down the aisle of the Republican National Convention in 1972, the delegates spat on him and cheered for Nixon - "Four more years."

W.D. Erhart, Vietnam veteran and author of Passing Time, never forgot the horrific episodes of his tour in Vietnam. In his first autobiography, he tells a friend about his speech at a Rotary Club. "I even put on a coat and tie and went to the Rotary Club. The Rotary Club, for chrissake. I laid it all out for ‘em. I told ‘em about search and destroy missions, harassment and interdiction fire, winning hearts and minds, all that stuff...Was I ever sharp that day.

"Now listen. You won't believe this. I got done and nobody said a word. No applause. Nothing. Then this skinny old fart shaped like a cold chisel gets up and says he's a retired colonel, and he thinks we should keep on pounding those little yellow bastards until they do what we say or we kill ‘em all, and he tells me I can't be a real veteran because a real veteran wouldn't go around badmouthing the good old U.S. of A., and the whole place erupts in thunderous applause." Welcome home, soldier. Now shut up.

Today Georgia Stillwell is a mother of a 21-year-old Iraqi war veteran. Her son is now homeless, unemployed, and despondent. Early one morning he drove his car over an embankment. She says that her son is a mere physical shell of himself. "My son's spirit and soul must still be wandering the streets of Iraq." It is not simply what happened in Iraq, but how veterans are treated at home when they seek to unburden their souls, that reinforces post-traumatic stress. On the night he drove the car off the road, he was crying, talking about the war. "His friends tell me he talks about the war. They describe it as ‘crazy talk.' He wants the blood of the Iraqis he killed off his hands."

"Each generation," writes Chris Hedges, "discovers its own disillusionment, often at a terrible price. And the war in Iraq has begun to produce legions of the lost and the damned." For our morally courageous veterans - for all of us, really, who seek forgiveness - only the truth can heal.

THE POPE'S EVIL LEGEND – MOHAMMED'S SWORD

NOTE from Ron: Because so many, even in the metaphysical community, still buy into the current goverment propaganda that Islam is responsible for terrorism, I post this imporatant viewpoint. Yes, I know that many are SO CONVINCED by the divide and conquer tactics of the establishment, which is the TRUE enemy of Truth, that they will not believe it. Still, I want the truth out there for those willing to look and see.

By Uri Avnery

(Written September. 26, 2006) Posted June 27, 2008

Since the days when Roman Emperors threw Christians to the lions, the relations between the emperors and the heads of the church have undergone many changes.

Constantine the Great, who became Emperor in the year 306–exactly 1700 years ago–encouraged the practice of Christianity in the empire, which included Palestine. Centuries later, the church split into an Eastern (Orthodox) and a Western (Catholic) part. In the West, the Bishop of Rome, who acquired the title of Pope, demanded that the Emperor accept his superiority.

The struggle between the Emperors and the Popes played a central role in European history and divided the peoples. It knew ups and downs. Some Emperors dismissed or expelled a Pope, some Popes dismissed or excommunicated an Emperor. One of the Emperors, Henry IV, "walked to Canossa", standing for three days barefoot in the snow in front of the Pope's castle, until the Pope deigned to annul his excommunication.

But there were times when Emperors and Popes lived in peace with each other. We are witnessing such a period today. Between the present Pope, Benedict XVI, and the present Emperor, George Bush II, there exists a wonderful harmony. Last week's speech by the Pope, which aroused a world-wide storm, went well with Bush's crusade against "Islamofascism", in the context of the "Clash of Civilizations".

In his lecture at a German university, the 265th Pope described what he sees as a huge difference between Christianity and Islam: while Christianity is based on reason, Islam denies it. While Christians see the logic of God's actions, Muslims deny that there is any such logic in the actions of Allah.

As a Jewish atheist, I do not intend to enter the fray of this debate. It is much beyond my humble abilities to understand the logic of the Pope. But I cannot overlook one passage, which concerns me too, as an Israeli living near the fault-line of this "war of civilizations".

In order to prove the lack of reason in Islam, the Pope asserts that the prophet Muhammad ordered his followers to spread their religion by the sword. According to the Pope, that is unreasonable, because faith is born of the soul, not of the body. How can the sword influence the soul?

To support his case, the Pope quoted–of all people–a Byzantine Emperor, who belonged, of course, to the competing Eastern Church. At the end of the 14th century, the Emperor Manuel II Palaeologus told of a debate he had–or so he said (its occurrence is in doubt)–with an unnamed Persian Muslim scholar. In the heat of the argument, the Emperor (according to himself) flung the following words at his adversary:

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached".

These words give rise to three questions: (a) Why did the Emperor say them? (b) Are they true? (c) Why did the present Pope quote them?

When Manuel II wrote his treatise, he was the head of a dying empire. He assumed power in 1391, when only a few provinces of the once illustrious empire remained. These, too, were already under Turkish threat.

At that point in time, the Ottoman Turks had reached the banks of the Danube. They had conquered Bulgaria and the north of Greece, and had twice defeated relieving armies sent by Europe to save the Eastern Empire. In 1453, only a few years after Manuel's death, his capital, Constantinople (the present Istanbul) fell to the Turks, putting an end to the Empire that had lasted for more than a thousand years.

During his reign, Manuel made the rounds of the capitals of Europe in an attempt to drum up support. He promised to reunite the church. There is no doubt that he wrote his religious treatise in order to incite the Christian countries against the Turks and convince them to start a new crusade. The aim was practical, theology was serving politics.

In this sense, the quote serves exactly the requirements of the present Emperor, George Bush II. He, too, wants to unite the Christian world against the mainly Muslim "Axis of Evil". Moreover, the Turks are again knocking on the doors of Europe, this time peacefully. It is well known that the Pope supports the forces that object to the entry of Turkey into the European Union.

Is there any truth in Manuel's argument?

The pope himself threw in a word of caution. As a serious and renowned theologian, he could not afford to falsify written texts. Therefore, he admitted that the Qur'an specifically forbade the spreading of the faith by force. He quoted the second Sura, verse 256 (strangely fallible, for a pope, he meant verse 257) which says: "There must be no coercion in matters of faith".

How can one ignore such an unequivocal statement? The Pope simply argues that this commandment was laid down by the prophet when he was at the beginning of his career, still weak and powerless, but that later on he ordered the use of the sword in the service of the faith. Such an order does not exist in the Qur'an. True, Muhammad called for the use of the sword in his war against opposing tribes–Christian, Jewish and others–in Arabia, when he was building his state. But that was a political act, not a religious one; basically a fight for territory, not for the spreading of the faith.

Jesus said: "You will recognize them by their fruits." The treatment of other religions by Islam must be judged by a simple test: How did the Muslim rulers behave for more than a thousand years, when they had the power to "spread the faith by the sword"?

Well, they just did not.

For many centuries, the Muslims ruled Greece. Did the Greeks become Muslims? Did anyone even try to Islamize them? On the contrary, Christian Greeks held the highest positions in the Ottoman administration. The Bulgarians, Serbs, Romanians, Hungarians and other European nations lived at one time or another under Ottoman rule and clung to their Christian faith. Nobody compelled them to become Muslims and all of them remained devoutly Christian.

True, the Albanians did convert to Islam, and so did the Bosniaks. But nobody argues that they did this under duress. They adopted Islam in order to become favorites of the government and enjoy the fruits.

In 1099, the Crusaders conquered Jerusalem and massacred its Muslim and Jewish inhabitants indiscriminately, in the name of the gentle Jesus. At that time, 400 years into the occupation of Palestine by the Muslims, Christians were still the majority in the country. Throughout this long period, no effort was made to impose Islam on them. Only after the expulsion of the Crusaders from the country, did the majority of the inhabitants start to adopt the Arabic language and the Muslim faith–and they were the forefathers of most of today's Palestinians.

There is no evidence whatsoever of any attempt to impose Islam on the Jews. As is well known, under Muslim rule the Jews of Spain enjoyed a bloom the like of which the Jews did not enjoy anywhere else until almost our time. Poets like Yehuda Halevy wrote in Arabic, as did the great Maimonides. In Muslim Spain, Jews were ministers, poets, scientists. In Muslim Toledo, Christian, Jewish and Muslim scholars worked together and translated the ancient Greek philosophical and scientific texts. That was, indeed, the Golden Age. How would this have been possible, had the Prophet decreed the "spreading of the faith by the sword"?

What happened afterwards is even more telling. When the Catholics re-conquered Spain from the Muslims, they instituted a reign of religious terror. The Jews and the Muslims were presented with a cruel choice: to become Christians, to be massacred or to leave. And where did the hundreds of thousand of Jews, who refused to abandon their faith, escape? Almost all of them were received with open arms in the Muslim countries. The Sephardi ("Spanish") Jews settled all over the Muslim world, from Morocco in the west to Iraq in the east, from Bulgaria (then part of the Ottoman Empire) in the north to Sudan in the south. Nowhere were they persecuted. They knew nothing like the tortures of the Inquisition, the flames of the auto-da-fe, the pogroms, the terrible mass-expulsions that took place in almost all Christian countries, up to the Holocaust.

WHY? Because Islam expressly prohibited any persecution of the "peoples of the book". In Islamic society, a special place was reserved for Jews and Christians. They did not enjoy completely equal rights, but almost. They had to pay a special poll-tax, but were exempted from military service–a trade-off that was quite welcome to many Jews. It has been said that Muslim rulers frowned upon any attempt to convert Jews to Islam even by gentle persuasion–because it entailed the loss of taxes.

Every honest Jew who knows the history of his people cannot but feel a deep sense of gratitude to Islam, which has protected the Jews for fifty generations, while the Christian world persecuted the Jews and tried many times "by the sword" to get them to abandon their faith.

The story about "spreading the faith by the sword" is an evil legend, one of the myths that grew up in Europe during the great wars against the Muslims–the reconquista of Spain by the Christians, the Crusades and the repulsion of the Turks, who almost conquered Vienna. I suspect that the German Pope, too, honestly believes in these fables. That means that the leader of the Catholic world, who is a Christian theologian in his own right, did not make the effort to study the history of other religions.

Why did he utter these words in public? And why now?

There is no escape from viewing them against the background of the new Crusade of Bush and his evangelist supporters, with his slogans of "Islamofascism" and the "Global War on Terrorism"–when "terrorism" has become a synonym for Muslims. For Bush's handlers, this is a cynical attempt to justify the domination of the world's oil resources. Not for the first time in history, a religious robe is spread to cover the nakedness of economic interests; not for the first time, a robbers' expedition becomes a Crusade.

The speech of the Pope blends into this effort. Who can foretell the dire consequences?

SILVER, GOLD AND THE IRS

By Derry Brownfield, June 15, 2008, NewsWithViews.com

I began a recent presentation before a large group of cattle producers (R-CALFUSA) by showing a paper dollar bill and a silver coin. The words "one dollar" is inscribed on both the coin and the paper, yet the paper dollar will only pay for about one quart of gasoline at today's prices, while the silver dollar will pay for well over five gallons. I explained to my audience that consumer prices are not high – the paper dollar has lost most of its value. It makes no difference how high the price of gasoline goes, a silver dollar will continue to buy gas for 20 cents a gallon, exactly the price gas was during the Great Depression. Based on 1940 prices, a paper dollar is worth about two pennies.

Today in America, we are being systematically robbed of our property because we have allowed the Federal Reserve to flood our banks with fiat, worthless paper money. There is actually a law against paper money but nobody seems to know about it. The Supreme law of the land is the US Constitution, which stated in Article I Section 10: Individual states are "not allowed to make any things but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts." The Constitution also states that "Congress has the power to COIN money and regulate the value thereof." Our Founding Fathers knew how a central bank printing paper money would collapse our economy. Had we followed the US Constitution to the full letter of the law, gasoline would still be 20 cents a gallon. As the dollar continues to lose value we say our currency has lost its purchasing power. It should be more properly referred to as embezzlement by the banking industry.

Robert Kahre owns a family business and instead of using paper money he paid his workers with gold and silver coins minted by the United States government. He paid them based on the "face value" of the coins. If he paid a worker a dollar an hour he paid with a silver dollar, which states on the coin that it is "one dollar" regardless of today's value. His wages were so low that he didn't have to file W-2 income tax forms or withhold taxes or pay workman's comp. This upset the IRS, which charged him and his family with 161 federal tax crimes.

The case which was tried before a Las Vegas jury in a Federal Court, heard testimony for almost four months. Defendants believed they had no legal obligation to withhold, pay income taxes or report anything to the government because the "face value" of the gold and silver coins is so small as to fall beneath the reporting thresholds set by the Internal Revenue Code. The government argued that the payments in gold and silver US coins must be considered at their bullion, full-market value when considering the worth of the wages for purposes of the IRS code. The essence of the argument is that Congress is obligated by law to mint and circulate such coins as demand requires, and must establish the value of coins as they are used as legal tender, but a coin's market value is a distinct, separate attribute of such coins and is of no legal consequence if the coins are used as legal tender. If a worker is paid with such coins, his taxable income can only be the face value indicated on the coin. "A coin dollar is worth no more for the purposes of tender in payment of an ordinary debt than a note dollar. The law has not made the note a standard of value anymore than coin. It is true that in the market, as an article of merchandise, one is of greater value than the other; but as money, as a medium of exchange, the law knows no difference between them."

On September 17, the jury returned its verdict refusing to convict all nine defendants of any of the 161 federal tax crimes they had been charged with. One would think, "we the tax payers would want to hear that the IRS was defeated by the use of the true money." To my knowledge, the results of this trial were never printed or broadcast by any of the major news media. Three days after the trial's conclusion, the Las Vegas Review Journal ran its first and last story about the outcome and then only because of public pressure from interested parties who attended the trial.

The Department of Justice prosecutors know that justice was done and that if this information was made available to the general public their house of cards would come tumbling down. All federal agencies have a great fear of the truth and only by controlling the news media can they keep the world from caving in on their heads.

(After typing this article, Beth (my secretary) has now surrendered the raise that she has yet to receive, contingent on me agreeing to pay her in gold & silver coins; see the truth does hurt.)

SPIRITUAL WORLD GOVERNANCE WILL BECOME THE NORM

We're in a 3D and 4D world. The third dimension and forth dimensions can be thought of as frequencies. Third dimension is equal measures of Light and dark. The forth dimension is a shift towards Light. The fifth dimension is a dimension of only Light, as are very likely the ones thereafter. Mother earth is transitioning to the fifth dimension.

All inhabitants of mother earth will transit to the fifth dimension or be taken to their next suitable placement on another planet. Perhaps they are ignoring the signs of a cleansing mother earth....continents are slowly shifting, and yet people are still buying real estate along coastlines and creating cities on islands. Spiritual world governanace will become the norm.

Satanic governments of the world like Canada's consist of dark wizards and witches at the top of the pyramid. They push uranium bombs and power on the world. They allow the military to spray the air with chemtrails. They encourage the masses to poison themselves, spiritually, mentally, physically and emotionally and pretend to have healthy balanced intentions. Reptilian-worshipping humans do not acknowledge everyone as being children of God; therefore, they are no longer useful to humanity as running this planet and our societies. It's true, the governments put fluoride in the water so that everyone's third eye would become clouded and unhealthy, and when that happens, one's intuition is greatly reduced, thus putting more reliance on government lies. Put your energy around true spiritual energies by knowing Universal Law and the Laws of Creation, which can be found at www.fourwinds10.com/journals If you haven't read the Phoenix Journals before, check them out.

Society is cleansing itself of manmade illusions

Notice how suddenly it's as if the world is collapsing upon itself? This is no accident, this is a plan to enslave humanity. Each human soul can do the rest of humanity as BIG favour, and learn how to not live in fear. Fear is normalized within societies, and fear emits energy that perpetrates war, greed and inequality of the world. Example of the creation of needless fear moments are numerous for example, "Buying a house insurance policy" (Fear of God), "Food shortages" (Can we all not put seed to water and feed ourselves?"), "Flu pandemics" (Manmade viruses are not currently spreading on our planet), "Global Warming", (How convenient for your mass medias to leave the biggest major factor THE SUN out of their equations), "Always rushing around" (Relaxation is a state of being). "Coffee in the morning", (When you feel sluggish it's because you are craving LIGHT, not coffee...coffee is the downward spiral if it's not a respectful situation of mode ration), "Canadian bill c-51" (Any government that tries to make St John's Wort illegal, should be discarded and replaced with spiritually aware Lightworkers and this can happen FAST!).

Your role at this time

Your role at this time is to purify yourself so that the Light can flow through you easily on all dimensions. Reclaim selfhood through all societal, family and planetary customs, normals, behaviours, so that you can truly reveal your magnificance to Self and the Universe. Repair your third eye by detoxifying body, balancing pH, bathing yourself in live foods, outdoor air, and the ions of rainfall, waterfalls, windy days along salt water, hydrogen peroxide, baking soda. Your health is really important at this time!

Some are going to the fifth dimension and some are comfortable in the third dimension

Some of us are heading upwards to the Light, and some are choosing to hang around longer in the Light and dark of the third dimension. Each situation is blessed as all have all eternity to make their journey. However as we've all stumbled while walking, isn't it lovely to have each other to help get back firmly planted on solid ground for the path of our individual and collective choosing?

How to get back firmly planted on solid ground?

Your path is firmly grounded in the Light, therefore to access your path, you must seek out the Light in all aspects of life....from diet, education, governance, clothing, shelter, water, choices in technology. Bless each situation so that the darkness within it, can be transmuted. Cleanse your existance at all levels, spend much time in the sun, drinking blessed magnetized water, bathe in the beauty of the sky visitations of the sky spirits and cloudships, which can be seen on many blue sky days, transmuting the chemtrails on behalf of humanity, and making their presence known. You can see many videos and images of miracle visitations in the canadian sky by first visiting youtube.com/indianinthemachine

We are in a brief time of inconvenience

Messages from off-planet say that as our mother earth cleanses herself, that it can mean for changes in weather patterns (which are also greatly influenced by government these days). You may wish to prepare yourself for basic societal inconveniences in the energy of Love. Patience and preseverance are some of your gifts of self-mastery....keep on mastering Self with the blessings and support of the entire Universe. snoedel.punt.nl

In the great spirit of Love,

THE FENCE

Do you ever feel as if you are one of the few people who can actually see what's going on? Have you ever carried on a conversation with an American who thinks they're in a democracy, the government deserves their taxes, they live in a free country, and policemen are their friend?

Have you attempted to live your life as a responsible, sovereign individual, only to be ridiculed by a high school graduate who can't spell sovereign and doesn't know what it means? Have you at least had a taste of freedom or an insatiable inner knowing of what it should be? Do you feel alone, surrounded by a herd that is contentedly grazing right up to the gates of slaughter?

Who are these huddling, witless masses of humanity and why won't they look around themselves and see the obvious? The easy answer is: the fence.

Many of us who see what's going on around us have learned how to live outside the fence, at least part of the time. Some have become rather adept at living on both sides of the fence. And a few sovereign souls have chosen the path of living completely free of any enclosure.

But the present-day "fence" is all encompassing, from horizon to horizon, with cross-fences at every juncture, and corrals, round pens and loading chutes for complete herd management.

And the herd of humanity is well managed. So well managed, that they either look dumb-founded whenever you mention what it's like on the other side of the fence, or they get angry.

"How dare you tell us we don't need all those taxes, laws, or the government to protect us! What do you mean there are all kinds of wild herbs growing free outside the fence that heal and nourish; that they taste better than hay and grain and make veterinarians obsolete? You must be crazy to think you can live free and be responsible for yourself," say the angry ones in the herd.

Understanding the fence can help freedom-lovers live amongst the clueless without succumbing to their fate. Perhaps, on a good day, we might even inspire one of the herd to look up and begin the process of putting the clues together. And that might eventually lead to another individual who can both understand and spell sovereign.

Where does the fence begin?

Born unable to walk, control our bowels, or utter much more than a cry, we begin the adventure of life very moldable. You might think of it as being in a marsupial condition without the benefit of a pouch. A parent or parents must dedicate considerable effort or the newly formed member of humanity won't survive.

The considerable effort required to raise up a young human has a trade benefit: The parent has the opportunity to mould the future of humanity. And that's no small responsibility.

After the first few years of parenting, comes the transitional phase. Except for young humans with parents who choose home-schooling or private education, the public side of the fence begins with the government indoctrination day-camps we call public school.

The opportunity and responsibility for molding the future of humanity, begun by the parents, is gradually taken over by government and it's commercial cousins. In Latin, it's called In Loco Parentis: In the place of the parent. Parents who do not find alternatives to the status quo become replaced by public educators, TV, video games, commercials, music producers, legislators and policemen.

It begins and ends in the mind. Horses are a good example. Countless times, I have stretched electric fence ribbon around new pasture. A horse who has experienced the momentary zap of 10,000 volts a few times, learns to stay away from the fence. Eventually you can turn off the fence and they will stay within its boundaries. The memory of the shock, and the sight of the fence are enough to keep most horses in. Some become so docile that just tying a single rope chest high will keep them in. They like the fence.

The fence was built in the horse's minds. If we want to be free, we first need to remove the fence from our minds, like those errant*, free-thinking horses who touch a whisker to the electric fence to see if it's on, and then walk on through whenever they don't feel a little zap.

The best laid fence

The best laid fence is one that isn't seen and gives benefits instead barbed wire cuts. You can get more out of a horse by the things you do for it and with it, than by the things you do to it. Sometimes you need barbed wire or 10,000 volts, but feed, grain and a friendly talking to are more likely to produce the desired result.

In the good old days, when ranches had plenty of room between them, the fence was the barn. The horses and cattle enjoyed some free range, but they knew where home was. Food and security kept them "in." They could forage "out" for the day, but they would be "in" at night and during winter.

Now-a-days, things are more crowded. The animals on the farm never leave the fence. Each farm is fenced where it buts up against another, jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so-to-speak. Like a government that keeps on growing, when does a farmer ever take down a fence, once it's been put up? And with all that seemingly green pasture, what creature would want to take the fence down?

People aren't much different. Government and its allies in commerce know this. The fence around you is well made and designed to make you like it. And it's about making a trade – trading your freedom, rights and responsibilities for the security, convenience and comfort of the fence.

The media fence

Media is the great fence maker of our times. It creates the borders in our mind. The well-honed science of media has created a fence so tight, that most people can't see the other side.

That's why they think the pasture inside the fence looks so green. They've never been allowed to see any other pasture, and they are constantly reminded how green it is.

In the one sided fence of media, people never really get to say what they want. But media tells the politicians what the people say they want, while politicians tell the media what the people say they want – more laws and regulations to protect us from the outlaws outside the fence – and a tax cut. And what is the result? More outlaws are created inside the fence by more laws and regulations, which require more taxes.

The fallacies of the fence

Do policemen prevent crime when the majority of "crimes" have no victim and weren't a crime until the police arrived? Do judges promote justice with controlled juries, bar regulated attorneys, self-adopted court rules and judicially controlled, self-disciplining review agencies?

Do we really have a Constitution and Bill of Rights anymore, when almost everything government does is against the Constitution and people are routinely imprisoned for exercising their rights?

When we live inside the fence, we live at the permission of the government. Everything from travel, to our homes, water, food, health, finances, even the air we breathe is regulated. Can regulations make us safe from bureaucrats?

Do we "make money" when money, by definition, can only be a coin and a "one dollar Federal Reserve Note" is issued by a private bank, which isn't federal, doesn't really have "reserves," and isn't a note because it can't be redeemed? And it isn't a "dollar" because a dollar is 371.25 grains of silver, not paper.

For the errant freedom lover with eyes to see and ears to hear, almost everything inside the fence can be shown to be false, a fraud and corrupted. For the tamed herd, it's all green fields, as far as the blinded eye can see. It all depends on which side of the fence you're on.

The fence chewers

This leads us to an interesting phenomena. One would think that leading the herd to real freedom would be very popular in a land known for its freedom. But quite the opposite is true. We errant folks are often ridiculed and demonized by the herd for our notions of freedom, and especially by the managers of the herd – the media.

The herd doesn't like fence chewers. Most people are quite happy to live in their illusions. We have to remember, it was all green and growing for them until we came along and made it look like charred grass.

They thought they owned a house, but if the government can take it for taxes, who owns it? It used to be their car, until we showed them how the government stole the title when they registered it. They thought they were successfully running a business, until we enlightened them about how many regulations prevent their options for success. And when we told them they worked over half the year just to pay their taxes, their illusionary green field went up in smoke.

That's why the herd doesn't like anyone who chews holes in the fence. It means they would have to face things the way they really are. It would require them to become responsibile. There would be no more semi-free rides on the back of the welfare nanny-state.

The sovereign's fence

What would a free state, outside the fence of government look like? No more collective herd management in a common enclosure. Each sovereign would be free to choose how much fence they want to put up on their own place. The common ground would be free range and the fence would only contain government.

Government's only duties will be to build roads, deliver mail, defend our borders, mint coins, and register patents on our ingenuity. A sovereign people would be free to engage in commerce with substance. A 371.25-grain silver dollar today, will still be a 371.25-grain silver dollar tomorrow. No more imaginary wealth. What you own, will remain your own, until you choose otherwise. Property would be held in allodium, untaxed.

Imagine a government that provides a bona fide, accountable, judicial forum to resolve conflicts between sovereign citizens and only passed "laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good."

With almost no taxes, we can afford to privately educate our children and contribute to any charities we choose. "Welfare," would be how well we fare from our own responsible, sovereign efforts, outside the fence.

To make this a reality, each of us needs to free our minds from our former keeper's programming and learn to live outside the fence. Be an example, even if it means you have to eat a little barbed wire. If we each chew our part, it'll be free range for everyone – whether they like it or not.

THE POTENTIAL POWER OF THE PURIFIED MIND

By Michael Goodspeed and Michael Armstrong

Most spiritual aspirants have some familiarity with the concept of acceptance. The word permeates much of the spiritual literature as a corollary to the themes of "surrender" and "forgiveness." The popular prayer/adage "I must accept what I cannot change and change what I cannot accept" seems a noble and reasonable policy in this tumultuous and/or indifferent Universe. Bad things happen to good people and we accept it because, we tell ourselves, it's all part of God's great plan, it's "for our own good," and in any event, we don't have any other choice.

Acceptance is surely a valid mental exercise insofar as it helps one experience life in a manner that is more lighthearted and friendly. We can't change other people, we can't undo the past, and we can't predict every trial and travail looming over the horizon. But what if man's tacit "acceptance" of his general helplessness and victim hood in a dangerous, troubled world is itself a major barrier to doing something about it?

From the day we are born, we are taught to accept the unacceptable as a matter of course. We all learn quickly that illness, disease, injuries, pain, trauma, aging, loss, and finally death are a fair price to pay for the privilege of "living." And neither scientific, nor most religious or spiritual literature ever contradicts these expectations. Mainstream biology and medicine tell us that we are mechanistic organisms born by chance and destined to die in a hostile, disconnected universe.

And both institutional religions and most spiritual philosophies treat "spirituality" as a mere anesthetic to the unavoidable human outcomes of suffering and death. If you view suffering and dying as a problem, you are supposed to be comforted by the promise of an afterlife in which one will be free from the endless heartaches and sorrows endemic to an earthly existence. Indeed, many religious and "spiritual" thought systems glorify suffering as a purifying force and/or badge of honor that will only increase the rewards one reaps in the eternal hereafter.

So where can one turn if one is unable or unwilling to "accept" these seemingly immutable premises that define and limit the human condition? Improbable as it may seem, it can be said that NONE of the institutions, either secular or religious, that exist mainly to relieve human suffering have ever proposed how man may be uplifted from his damaged, limited state to one of true empowerment. Although the word empower is used casually in political discourse, most often to describe the government's dispensation of "civil rights" to certain individuals, to be truly empowered means literally to have absolute authority over one's own destiny. It is commonly accepted that such a thing is not plausible, possible, or even desirable for mere human beings. In fact, both religious and governmental authorities relentlessly command us to acquiesce personal authority in favor of submission to some "higher power," be it earthly or "divine," for our own best interests. And since our helplessness seems confirmed in every facet of human experience, this call to submit goes largely unchallenged.

In a highly religious world, those who aren't satisfied with their personal reality or the reality of the world frequently turn to God for an answer. People pray for everything from personal health to the safety of loved ones to financial prosperity to world peace. But in a world dominated by warfare, poverty, disease, and every conceivable form of injustice, it seems that these "prayers" are rarely if ever answered. The only logical conclusion one can come to is either A) prayers are never answered because no creator nor agency exists to hear them; or B) the practice of prayer by most human beings is misguided, because they are working with incorrect concepts of "God."

So far – in the history of the world – the world's religions have neither been able to inspire their god to do anything substantive about the "human condition", nor have they done much of any significance themselves – except to offer "coping" mechanisms! The "positive" coping mechanisms offered in the English speaking western world consist of 4 or 5 things: Temporary mystical experience, quasi-fellowship, quasi-miracles, prayer and meditation, some time oriented structure to their lives, and finally promises and hope. One is reminded of the popular axiom, "Hope makes a good breakfast but a lousy dinner".

Down through the ages into our time, religions have also promulgated every unflattering and insulting concept of god in the spectrum of the highest human value system. Right along side of being merciful, loving and gracious, God has been portrayed as inconsistent, mean, petty, vengeful, violent, vicious, unforgiving, dominating, demanding, unreasonable, alien ("who can know thy ways" and "thy ways are past understanding), and cruel (he will be burning humans for ever and ever in some literal fiery hell). Books have been written to show that this is even an unwarranted interpretation of New Testament passages. The God of religion has in fact come to represent everything that could be characterized as anti-God. So pervasive are these imageries of God that, throughout much of the world, the phrase "Holy Warrior" goes unrecognized as an oxymoron. Countless millions of devotees have been willing to burn themselves and others at the stake in concordance with what they view as directives from God. Due to this overt and seemingly endless lunacy, more human beings today than ever before are skeptical of religion. ("Religion has made atheists of many honest men" – David R. Hawkins).

Yet many choose not to abandon their inner call to spirit, seeking instead a spiritual thought system that is more benevolent and constructive to life. In the United States, countless bestsellers have been written on spirituality, with authors such as Eckhart Tolle, Marianne Williams, and Deepak Chopra, et al. preaching a message of forgiveness, "acceptance," and unconditional love. Whereas much religion instructs the faithful to bow to an angry God, most proponents of what might be called "the new age" teach that the Universe is friendly – if friendliness is consonant with being born into an insane, troubled, dangerous world under a sentence of death – and that happiness is achieved by simply existing in the present moment and "surrendering" to what is. In this thought system, the problems of the world and one's life are illusory – they exist only in our minds due to limited and/or false perception. Undeniably, this approach seems to be a brighter, better alternative to the darker and grimmer aspects of religion and religious concepts of god, and may be helpful to those who seek greater equanimity and inner peace. But the questions must be asked: Have these new approaches gone far enough? Are they correct (consonant with reality) enough? Can they succeed at truly resolving the human condition, and provide every human being with what they really want and need?

From our perspective, the teachings of Jesus, when correctly interpreted and free from the selective coloring of religious dogmatists, provide a clear instructive path to a state of empowerment, i.e., a condition where human beings can change current "reality" for the benefit of all. Even physical death can be transcended for truly empowered individuals – on this point Jesus was particularly explicit. For those who seek a concept of God that is both benevolently healing, consistently loving and sane, any other point of view can only be described at best as inadequate, at worst as destructive.

But in our purportedly "Christian" nation, the fundamental tenets of Jesus' teachings are barely discussed and almost never believed, even by the most devoutly Christian "faithful." In fact, one can argue that institutional Christian doctrine "reads right around the best parts" and has over centuries come to preach the precise OPPOSITE of Jesus' intended message to humanity. In the Gospel of John, we are told that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life." But within traditional Christian denominations, physical death is not viewed as something that lowly human beings can entirely bypass because there is always a hiatus. The "everlasting life" promised by Jesus – the destiny of righteous "souls" that have been judged favorably by God – is only delivered after death.

The Father for whom Jesus spoke, however, bore no resemblance to the capricious, schizophrenic entity of the Old Testament and other sacred writings. Jesus could not have been more clear that the Father was not in the business of dispensing judgment and wrath upon his own creation, nor was it God's will for human beings to suffer and die: "…as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he will….For neither does the Father judge any man, but he has given all judgment unto the Son…Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that hears my message, and believes him that sent me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed out of death into life…."

A large part of healing may have to start with spiritual sanity, conceptual clarity and correctness. It might be stated that Jesus' primary intention was to change man's concept of God as being both separate from, and superior to, His creation. To the disciple Phillip when challenged to "show us the father", Jesus replied – no doubt with frustration – "If you have understood me, you have understood the father." In the Gnostic Gospel of Thomas, Jesus states, "The Kingship of Heaven is within you and without you, and any man who knows himself shall find it." This instruction and others by Jesus seem quite explicit – Heaven is not a "place" that man's "soul" travels to after death, nor is it a realm to which only a few are granted entrance after a favorable judgment. The Kingship of Heaven can be accessed IMMINENTLY, and all anyone need do to find it is "know himself."

The teachings of Jesus also seem congruent with the revolutionary idea of a "holographic universe." A hologram is a single entity that is made of many individual units, and within each unit is the essence of the whole. In this analogy, where Jesus states that he can accomplish nothing in the absence of the Father, we might interpret this to mean that God Himself represents the totality of unfallen human consciousness. When Jesus performed miracles, he insisted it was not him doing it, but the Father, yet Jesus told his disciples, "Greater things than these will you do." The message is clearly that God is NOT separate from human beings – in a state of perfect unity and fellowship, all the power in the universe is available to man, and in this condition of empowerment, nothing that the mind can imagine is impossible.

The evidentiary support for these seemingly "unusual" or "extraordinary" concepts exists for anyone with the inclination and discernment to see. The feats of the psychic mind have been anecdotally demonstrated for centuries, and in recent decades, experimentally. Even a cursory examination of the evidence reveals beyond a reasonable doubt that we live in a collective consciousness, damaged and fragmented but still undeniably active. In everyday life, human beings have regular psychic experiences ranging from the profound to the seemingly mundane. Since death is the most psychically traumatizing of all experiences, it's not surprising that many of the most intense psychic intuitions explicitly forewarn of one's own expiration. In fact, many people have been able to accurately predict the precise moment of their deaths, often years in advance.

One of the more jarring demonstrations of this phenomenon was given by NBA star Pistol Pete Maravich who said in a 1974 interview, "I don't want to play 10 years in the NBA and die of a heart attack at age 40." Maravich played pro ball for exactly 10 years and died of a heart attack at age 40 in 1988. In the article "When Death is Prophesied," over a dozen historical accounts were presented of similar fulfilled prophecies among everyday people. (Full story: www.rense.com/general58/death.htm)

And the psychic abilities of animals have been demonstrated perhaps even more forcefully than those of humans. No narrow, materialistic view of reality can explain the countless reports of lost animals that traversed hundreds or even thousands of miles to return home to their families, guided only by intuition. Consider this 1971 report of a cat whose 1,600 mile journey finally led her – bruised paws and all – to her owners' doorstep:

News Journal, Sunday July 25, 1971, Mansfield, Ohio
From The Family Weekly

The Love Cats Feel For People...The Journeys Their Love Inspires
By Felica Ames

What built-in cat radar led Clementine through endless miles of unknown country to the one house and one family in the world she was looking for?

How long would it take to walk from Dunkirk, N. Y., to Denver, Col.? A cat named Clementine could tell you. It took her four paw-bruising months to make that 1,600-mile trek. But then, Clementine didn't know the way.

When Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lundmark moved from Dunkirk to Denver, they left their pet black cat with neighbors because Clementine was in the family way. Once the litter was weaned, however, Clementine abandoned her brood and hit the road. Four months later an exhausted female cat appeared on the Lundmark's doorstep. There was no doubt it was Clementine, for this amazing animal was unique in another way. She had seven toes on each front paw, two white spots on her stomach and a scar on her left shoulder.

Full story may be read here

Innumerable such accounts are also supported by the research of Dr. Rupert Sheldrake, who has demonstrated the psychic connections between humans and their pets in his book, "Dogs That Know When Their Owners are Coming Home and Other Unexplained Powers of Animals" (see www.sheldrake.org).

Many people may accept the existence of psychic phenomena, but the full implications of these abilities have seemingly yet to register. Not only is consciousness not locally limited to the brain, not only is it capable of instantaneous communication with every other mind, it is capable of affecting physical reality in ways we can barely imagine. Consider the research of quantum physicist John Hagelin, Ph.D., who co-authored a study in Washington D.C., which showed a direct correlation between a group's practice of transcendental meditation, and a reduction of crime in their area. (For an overview of this study, see www.istpp.org/crime_prevention).

We must also consider the tangible physical affects that our minds have on our own bodies – such affects are far from merely "theoretical" or "anecdotal." For instance, it is well documented that hypnotic suggestion alone can lead directly to the formation of visible burn-blisters on human flesh. (See Handbook of Hypnotic Suggestions and Metaphors,

That a human being can mentally burn his own flesh should surprise no one. According to at least one controlled study in the 1960's, the human body produces "electromagnetic radiation phenomena" when consciousness is "in a state of intensed [sic] psychosensory excitation." (See More US Government Psychic Warfare)

At a more profound level, cellular biologist Dr. Bruce Lipton argues in his book "The Biology of Belief" that "our beliefs, true or false, positive or negative, affect genetic activity and actually alter our genetic code." Rather than viewing man as a helpless victim of his inherited genetic structure, Lipton has demonstrated that "genes do not in fact control our behavior, instead, genes are turned on and off by influences outside the cell." At a public presentation in Phoenix, AZ, Dr. Lipton and author Gregg Braden presented a "rare video" of "a baseball-sized tumor" visible on a sonogram shrinking and disappearing as practitioners of a form of Qigong chanted a simple phrase.

Or consider the experience of Michael Crichton while at Harvard U. After a year spent in the coronary wing of the Harvard Medical Center, he began asking the patients why they had their heart attack. Expecting the answer to be along the lines of too much smoking, drinking or bad diet, he was shocked that virtually all of the answers were couched in personal avoidance terms – one man suggested that he had a heart attack because his wife resented his promotion at work. Another husband said that his wife was going to leave him. These answers indicate that their minds or mindsets had triggered the attacks. In fact, Crichton himself concluded, "We cause our diseases. We are directly responsible for any illness that happens to us."

The smattering of anecdotes listed above is only a bare bone glimpse of the burgeoning and increasingly mainstream fields of psychic, mind/body, and mind over matter research. And of course, not everyone is happy with this development. Self-styled "skeptics" of the so-called paranormal and/or religious/spiritual beliefs insist that it is DANGEROUS for human beings to entertain abilities and phenomena that official science does not yet recognize as real. They can point to endless charlatans and/or self-deceived individuals – psychic mediums, spoon-benders, dowsers, etc. – who make paranormal claims unsupported by facts as proof that the public must be disabused of belief in the "supernatural" for their own good. And "skeptics" can point to "Christian scientists" and other religious devotees who endanger their own lives and the lives of their children by relying on "prayer" (or their interpretation of prayer) as an antidote to sickness and disease. But any person with a genuinely skeptical approach must also consider the dangers of NOT exploring the mind frontier, and all its awesome untapped potentials. Consider the following warning from Colonel Dolan M. McKelvy in the 1988 USAF-funded scientific study, "Psychic Warfare: Exploring the Mind Frontier." In no uncertain terms does the author espouse the need for human beings to recognize the REALITY of the psychic mind's powers and all its potential uses, both helpful and destructive:

"Man's greatest potential remains a prisoner of man. Vast untapped mental capabilities create an entirely new battlefield dimension that, if ignored, poses a threat to self and country more serious than nuclear weapons. This threat starts from within. Our fears and cynical attitudes towards psychic capabilities make us our own worst enemies…. Exploring the mind frontier is essential and the key to successful exploration is a greater psychic awareness. The mind is rich in unfathomed resources ripe for exploration, a limitless source of treasures for advancing all mankind, and a serious threat to those who ignore its potential. We must overcome our psychic inhibitions, stop denying the existence of paranormal events, and start trying instead to understand the nature of these phenomena….Report

When Jesus implored mankind toward unity and lovingness, he was speaking not only for unity among all human beings, but an INTERNAL unity for each individual. "The Kingship of Heaven is within you and without you, and any man who knows himself shall find it." For centuries, religious dogmatists have persuaded man that he is separate from and inferior to the Father, intrinsically flawed, judged as guilty and sentenced to die. The "enlightenment" of science – the purported best alternative to murderous dogma – has failed at resolving man's ultimate helplessness. In order to reach our true psychic, spiritual, human potential, we must have the courage to challenge our own belief systems, to abandon those beliefs that debase man's worth, and to embrace only those that support "the sustenance and enhancement of life." The real "good news" conveyed by Jesus is that we need NOT accept all the tragedies, heartaches, and deprivations that have defined human experience, that we are entitled to receive what every human being wants, the "'IFISEEUS' package of Imminent Fulfillment, Immortality, Safety, Equality, Empowerment, Unity, and Society."

Bertrand Russell said, "Man is a credulous animal, and must believe something; in the absence of good grounds for belief, he will be satisfied with bad ones." According to Jesus, to be satisfied with bad beliefs is to condemn oneself – and all of mankind – to an existence typified by suffering and ending in death. But Jesus also stated that a way out exists, that "My yoke is pleasant and my burden light." Very few of us have acquired the correct beliefs – if we had the world we live in would be transformed forever. But we can all begin to believe that the truth is friendly and, when properly understood, will never betray us or leave us wanting for anything. Was this the choice Jesus offered mankind during his time on Earth? Roughly 2,000 years later, does the entire Universe still wait for us to finally choose correctly?

THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE GOD-IMAGE

Just as we can interpret our dreams symbolically and we can interpret our life as a dream, we can contemplate the history of the world as we would a dream being dreamed by the deeper, dreaming Self that we all share. When we view the unfoldment of the cosmos in this way, one of the things that comes into focus is how the Self, or God-image, which is a living symbol and doorway into the wholeness of our true nature, is continually differentiating and expressing itself in both inner and outer events. Seen symbolically, outer phenomena such as the enlightenment of the Buddha and the life of Christ are seen to be reflections of a mystical process of awakening that is occurring in the depths of consciousness itself, a process which has to do with the birth and the revelation of the true Self in all of us. To quote Jung, "The real history of the world seems to be the progressive incarnation of the deity."

The Self is continually revealing its mystery in symbolic code hidden in plain sight, woven into the fabric of our waking dream, i.e., life, whether these self-secret clues be found in experiences such as the cosmic passion play of Christ, in synchronicities, dreams and visions, in the ordinary events of our daily lives, or in the patterns of global events. The underlying, archetypal motifs which repeat themselves in endless variations as the dramas of history are themselves living, embodied revelations of the ever-evolving God-image. To quote Jung, "…the imago Dei [the God-image] pervades the whole human sphere and makes mankind its involuntary exponent."

As if speaking a rarified and refined form of symbolic language, the Self paradoxically reveals itself in its own veiling of itself, adumbrating itself in a variety of images which all hide as well as indicate its true nature. If the inner resonance of the God-image is attuned to and awakened inside ourselves, these living images of God reveal themselves to be hyper-dimensional portals into and living symbolic expressions of a more expansive consciousness that is always available to us.

A living symbol that points beyond itself, the God-image is not a concoction of the conceptual mind. To quote Jung, "The God-image is the expression of an underlying experience of something which I cannot attain to by intellectual means." The God-image is an autonomous phenomenon that is not invented by the intellect, but rather, experienced. Based on a pre-existing, archetypal pattern, the God-image's existence precedes our cognition of it. Having no hand in its creation, the intellect can only try and come to terms with and assimilate the God-image into its conception of the world. The God-image is a self-produced image spontaneously blossoming from the psyche as a whole that simultaneously reflects and effects what is going on within the very psyche which produced it. The God-image is not a static entity but a living, dynamically evolving process, which is the core archetype, the supreme symbol of the collective unconscious. The God-image is the collective unconscious' projection of itself, representing the Self as well as the individuation process (the process of realizing our wholeness). Our God-image expresses our conception of and relation to God, while at the same time being the very image through which God is revealing Itself to us. To quote Jung, "As it is a natural process, it cannot be decided whether the God-image is created or whether it creates itself." Do we create our God-image? Or does our image of God create us?

Seen as a dream, the Christ event was an inner, archetypal process that was occurring deep within the collective unconscious of humanity that literally got dreamed into materialization as its own self-revelation (see my article " Christ Would not Vote for Bush"). Seen as a dreaming process that is playing out in the collective psyche of our species, it makes no difference whether the Christ event actually historically happened or not. The Christ-image is a genuine symbol that has arisen in and out of the human psyche which speaks to, is an expression of, and transforms the imagination itself.

When the Christ event is viewed as a dream of the deeper, dreaming Self and interpreted symbolically like a dream, it reflects the incredible polarization and deep inner split existing in the collective unconscious of humanity. This tension of the opposites symbolically played itself out on the world stage in the adversarial figures of Christ and Satan. Christ's utterly sublime and spotless nature evoked a blacker darkness on the seemingly contrary other side to oppose it, as if the two interconnected opposites reciprocally yet mutually co-arose together. Seen symbolically, Satan, to quote Jung, "represents the counterpole of that tremendous tension in the world psyche which Christ's advent signified," and he was related to Christ "…as inseparably as the shadow belongs to the light."

Christ in himself represents a completely perfect emanation of the Self in its radiant light aspect, lacking nothing, being an open doorway into and mirror of our divine and primordially pure nature. Seen symbolically, however, the figure of Christ is too one-sided a symbol of the multi-faceted archetype of the Self. Christ himself is too overly light and identified with the good, and as the Gnostics realized, he "cast off his shadow from himself," which Satan is carrying. Because he is the full-blown Incarnation of the Light, to quote Jung, Christ is only a symbol for "one side of the Self [the light] and the devil the other [the dark] [emphasis added]. Seen as dream characters, symbols representing aspects of ourselves, in the figures of Christ and Satan the opposites had become completely severed and dissociated from each other. To quote Jung, "the Christ-symbol lacks wholeness in the modern psychological sense, since it does not include the dark side of things but specifically excludes it in the form of a Luciferian opponent…from the psychological angle he corresponds to only one half of the archetype." Psychologically speaking, Jung continues, "…the Christian image of the self – Christ – lacks the shadow that properly belongs to it."

When we view the history of the world as the progressive differentiation of the Self, which is to say the incarnation of the deity, we begin to notice that the Self responds to a one-sided image of itself by gradually expressing and giving rise to the part of its totality that is left out and marginalized, just as in dreams the unconscious compensates a one-sided image to a dreamer.

This process can be clearly seen in the minds of the alchemists, who after the Christ event discovered a new God-image within their own psyche. The God-image of the alchemists was a further differentiation over time as well as a revelation in time of the archetype of the Self, which exists outside of time. In their God-image, which they called "Mercurius," the energy that had animated the Christ event had further extrapolated itself in the imagination of the alchemists by taking into itself its darker half. Jung said, "…alchemy is rather like an undercurrent to the Christianity that ruled on the surface. It is to this surface as the dream is to consciousness, and just as the dream compensates the conflicts of the conscious mind, so alchemy endeavors to fill in the gaps left open by the Christian tension of opposites."

The wisest of the alchemists knew that what they were witnessing in their retorts was nothing other than a projection, or reflection of the deepest ground of the archetypal, transpersonal psyche. They experienced Mercurius, like the unconscious, as an autonomous spirit very unlike the purely light figure of Christ. Mercurius was ambiguous, paradoxical, and dark, not to mention utterly pagan. Jung said, Mercurius "represents a part of the psyche which was certainly not molded by Christianity and can on no account be expressed by the symbol ‘Christ'…It represents all those things which have been eliminated from the Christian model."

An evasive trickster, Mercurius was a shape-shifter who was considered two-faced and duplicitous. He was related to Hermes - the God of Revelation, the Germanic Wotan, the Egyptian Thoth, and the maleficent Saturn. Saturn is the dwelling place of the devil himself, and to quote Jung, "If Mercurius is not exactly the Evil One himself, he at least contains him." Jung continues, "Mercurius truly consists of the most extreme opposites; on the one hand he is undoubtedly akin to the godhead, on the other he is found in sewers." To again quote Jung "It seems, however, that the alchemists did not understand hell, or its fire, as absolutely outside of God or opposed to him, but rather as an internal component of the deity, which must indeed be so if God is held to be a coincidentia oppositorum." As an image of the Self, Mercurius was a revelation of the Self as a co-incidence of opposites, consisting of and uniting the most extreme opposites within itself. Jung continues, "The concept of an all-encompassing God must necessarily include his opposite…The principle of the coincidence of opposites must therefore be completed by that of absolute opposition in order to attain full paradoxicality and hence psychological validity."

When the figures of Christ and Mercurius are recognized to be symbolic expressions of two different aspects of the Self, to quote Jung, "Christ appears as the archetype of consciousness and Mercurius as the archetype of the unconscious." Seen together, the figures of Christ and Mercurius re-present the Self in its totality, in its light and dark aspects, of consciousness and its inseparability from the unconscious. To quote Jung, "The paradoxical nature of Mercurius reflects an important aspect of the Self – in fact, namely, that it is essentially a complexio oppositorum, [a union of opposites] and indeed can be nothing else if it is to represent any kind of totality."

When viewed relative to and as relatives of each other, the revelation of Christ and the alchemist's revelation of Mercurius are different symbolic representations of the very same emerging Self. Just like consciousness and the unconscious, the figures of Christ and Mercurius collaboratively illumine each other as complementary and compensatory aspects of a greater whole. To quote Jung, "In reality every intensified differentiation of the Christ-image brings about a corresponding accentuation of its unconscious complement." In the fully revealed Incarnation of Christ, the Word became flesh such that it precipitated its symbolic complement in the figure of Mercurius, a genuine praising of the logos.

To quote Jung, "Hesitantly, as in a dream, the introspective brooding of the centuries gradually put together the figure of Mercurius and created a symbol which, according to all the psychological rules, stands in a compensatory relation to Christ. It is not meant to take his place, nor is it identical with him, for then indeed it could replace him. It owes it existence to the law of compensation." Mercurius, Jung concludes, presents "a subtle compensatory counterpoint to the Christ image." Seen as a symbol in a dream, in the figure of Mercurius the unconscious is compensating its one-sided image of itself in its own evolving self-revelation.

A divine messenger, Mercurius is itself the message, as the medium is truly the message. Though appearing to be a trouble-maker, Mercurius, like Christ, was considered to be a peacemaker, a savior, a guide through the underworld, a server of humanity, the mediator between the warring elements of the psyche, as well as the producer of unity. Mercurius is the figure who acts out the marginalized role, presides over the borderline, the places of transition, and the cross-roads.

Though not existing objectively, separate from the creative imagination of the alchemists, it is a mistake to write off Mercurius as merely a figment of the alchemical imagination. Through the figure of Mercurius, the alchemists had discovered what Jung calls the "reality of the psyche." By saying the psyche is "real," Jung is pointing out that the psyche in-forms our experience of ourselves and the universe in the most fundamental of ways. It is through the medium of the psyche that we give shape to both ourselves and the world around us. When we recognize the reality of the psyche is when we begin to enter the dimension of experience where our imagination and our experience of ourselves intersect, interpenetrate, and mutually influence each other in a conscious and consciousness-generating way.

The figure of Mercurius is a living example of the God-image making itself known by revealing itself through the image-making psyche. As Jung reminds us, "Psyche is image." The figures of Christ and Mercurius are different iterations of the same deeper, universal Self imaginatively and fractally unfolding itself within the dimension of the human psyche. A further component of the resurrected body, Mercurius is an elaboration over time of the birth of the Self, an Incarnation which is happening within the creative imagination of humanity. The human psyche is the organ through which we imagine God while God simultaneously imagines Itself into incarnation, in our psyche as well as the world, through our imagination. To quote Jung, "The human psyche and the psychic background are boundlessly underestimated, as though God spoke to man exclusively through the radio, the newspapers, or through sermons. God has never spoken to man except in and through the psyche, and the psyche understands it and we experience it as something psychic." Just as the eye is the instrument through which we behold the image of the sun, the psyche is the organ through which we behold the image of God.

The paradoxical figure of Mercurius is not only a symbolic expression of a process going on deep inside the human psyche but within the divine imagination as well. The divine imagination is the creative organ of perception animating the human psyche through which the formless archetypal dimension is accessed and translated into comprehensible images. The God-image is a unique phenomenon in that it is the intersection point through which the human and divine imaginations reciprocally in-form and collaboratively engage with each other as if wedded in an intimate relationship.

The God-image is an expression of the unconscious of humanity, while simultaneously being God's disclosure of Itself to Itself through us. This is similar to how our dreams at night reflect back to us our unconscious, while at the same time they bring consciousness to the very unconsciousness of which they are an expression. Like with our dreams, how the figure of Mercurius manifests, whether as a helper or as a diabolical seducer leading us astray, depends upon if we recognize what he is revealing to us.

The God-image is realizing and revealing itself in the collective unconscious of humanity, which is to say "incarnating," and we are, whether we know it or not, active participants in and vessels for its transformation. This is a big discovery, genuinely worthy of our deepest attention. Realizing that the God-image is transforming itself is to be contributing to the transformation of the God-image. The degree to which we comprehend this process is the degree to which we become active participants contributing to the very process we are simultaneously comprehending. To quote Jung, "But if consciousness participates with some measure of understanding, then the process is accompanied by all the emotions of a religious experience or revelation." A true conjunction of opposites, the Self is making itself known in the unconscious of humanity and is inviting us to share and partake in its wholesome, whole-making, and holy nature.

Integrating within ourselves an expanded image of God can only be achieved at the moment when we ourselves change in relation to our new imagination. To enlarge our conception of God is to ourselves grow and become greater in volume, as the limits of who we imagine we are and what we imagine we are capable of expands simultaneously to greater heights and more abysmal depths. Seen in its progression since ancient times, the God-image was mediated in the Old Testament through the law, in the New Testament it was dependent on faith, and in the new psychological dispensation of our time the God-image is centered in and mediated by direct experience.

In the symbolic figure of Mercurius is a spontaneous God-image that has crystallized into and out of the human psyche which is a manifestation of, as well as a doorway into an inner experience that unites the opposites. In a radical re-visioning of itself, in the figure of Mercurius the unconscious has offered us an image of God which includes and embraces evil as an integral aspect of our wholeness.

The God-image is like a dream that we are dreaming that is simultaneously dreaming us. To recognize what the unconscious is revealing to us through our God-image is to step into and discover within ourselves the dark, unconscious, projected, and "dreamed up" content which is being reflected back to us through our imaginings of God. To expand our conception of God so as to include darkness can only be done, and is an instantaneous reflex of, our embracing the darkness within ourselves. Becoming acquainted with our own darkness is a genuine "illumination," which is why Jung points out that, "…not only darkness is known through light, but that conversely, light is known through darkness."

To recognize that the figures of Christ and Mercurius are reflections of a deeper process of awakening happening within ourselves "appreciates" them, as well as ourselves. Appreciated as the mirror that they are, these internal figures, as well as ourselves, appreciate, i.e., grow in value.

The figures of Christ and Mercurius, when recognized as co-related symbols of our wholeness, reciprocally activate, awaken, and reveal the wholeness within us. The evolving God-image, our intrinsic wholeness, has crept under our skin and has empowered our creative imagination to materialize itself as our experience of ourselves. In a sacred IN-pulse, something greater than ourselves is incarnating through us as it reveals itself to us. We are truly made in the image of God, while at the same time our image of God makes us.

THE LIGHT CODES

From Desk of GraceWatcher of Sakin'el, Dr. Paul E. Jones, B.A., M.Div., D.D., GraceWatcher@aol.com, www.gracewatcher.org. Sharing the Oneness of God, Religion and Humanity & Bringing Love and Light to Everyonel

Information is growing in the scientific field about DNA and the chromosomes found in these structures. Science has determined that all of these chromosomes are not turned on at the present time. In other words it seems that all of these structures are not being used presently..

So the question remains what is the function and purpose of these chromosomes that are not being used?

Part of the DNA structure contains information pertaining to our biology such as our features and the genetic information that is passed on from family lines. There is another part of the DNA structure that has to do with the spiritual component of the human, and [conventional] science has not considered this yet.

However if one is persuaded that the human consists of a soul and the biology of the body, then does it not follow that the genetic link with the individual also contains spiritual information?

This is what we are proposing. The human being as far as DNA is considered and the material contained within the DNA, reflects elements of a spiritual nature also. Some of these spiritual elements were turned off in our ancient history because there was a struggle to control this aspect of the human by the dark forces. The dark forces understood that if they could control this aspect, then they could keep the development of humankind under their control. They would do this through the use of fear and domination. This event occurred in Atlantis over 200,000 years ago when the DNA molecule was breached.

We are also suggesting that this is the ending of that very long cycle and there is an opportunity for us to again reclaim our "trails of glory". These trails of glory were creative abilities that our Creator endowed us with as we brought forth those abilities at that ancient time. Those spiritually advanced could bring forth information from the unmanifested to the manifested.

What we are suggesting is that humans could create through mind power alone!

However, in order to be allowed to do that, Earth Guardians had to make certain that we would be aligned to the most noble of thoughts, or else there was the danger of interfering with the [original] blueprint. The blueprint of which we speak was the plan set forth by the Creator at the time of creation delineating the parameters or rules of creativity. We would also like to clarify that all the souls at the time were not this spiritually advanced.

When the dark forces broached our DNA, it was shut down. But there was a promise given that there would be a time in the future when we would be allowed again to develop according to the original plan. Humanity had to go through a very long period of spiritual development to again implant those noble goals that were contained in the original DNA. Those guiding our spiritual heritage through our long history, have periodically sent representatives to help us elevate our thoughts and desires so we could again grow spiritually and regain these lost abilities.

Originally there were a little over 2000 particles in our DNA that allowed these abilities. All strands were not positioned in the physical part of our biology but the majority resided on that plane where our higher mind resides. Our own individual soul is much greater than we perceive because all of its abilities do not reside in our individual identity with our biology. It resides in a greater force on a higher spiritual plane and not in the dense level of solids and gases. Our higher mind is a better judge of when we are ready to be given more rewards for our spiritual growth and not be in a position to harm other parts of creation. There is a responsibility required for the gifts we use..

Already there are some who have gone beyond the two strands of DNA and have worked their way up to the 12 strands that are on the next level of accomplishment. There are individuals already helping people to activate these extra strands, but individuals can also do this for themselves.

Compassion and love will start the process of turning on the inactive aspects of DNA. Within those turned on components reside the light codes needed for advancement. These light codes cover a wide range of spiritual ability. Some of the light codes center around peace, oneness, cooperation, integrity, and a sense of beauty. The light codes in their totality comprise all the qualities of the light. When these light codes are integrated, a connection with Source begins. Love starts a vibration that is closely aligned to the original vibration that was held by the souls that started to colonize this planet.

The hierarchy responsible for the spiritual development of the people on this planet has already brought the pattern back and have instilled it on a level that we can access now.

Other spiritual beings led by Archangel Michael have worked on repairing the grid system which has been damaged over time through negative events that have held sway here over this long period. Advanced beings have been incarnating now to be of assistance to us. Since this is a planet of free will, human beings have been needed to help the spiritual hierarchy in this work, and they have been assisted by humans who accepted the request to come forth and help in this development.

Presently, the sun steps down the energies as they come from the center of the universe. This means that we have not been able to benefit to the fullest from this source. We must be on a higher vibratory level to be able to work with the full force of energies. However this will be changing. The entire spiral of the Milky Way in which earth is located is moving to a much higher vibratory level. The Creative Forces have decreed this.

Like the workings of a giant clock works, planets have found the positions that allow energies to reach us that will elevate the earth to the higher levels and through entrainment, humanity will follow. These energies are coming from "All There Is" that resides in the center of the universe.

However, we still have free will and we can frustrate our own advancement by holding on to the dark forces. We have many choices now and the beginning of awareness is to understand what is happening to our DNA and the struggle for control of it. It is now time to break out of this pattern of domination and control and advance towards the light and reclaim our 'trails of glory' again.

THE DOMINO EFFECT - A PLANETARY ASCENSION PROCESS AND HOW IT AFFECTS HUMANITY

Aluna Joy Yaxk'in

Over the past 20 years, the Star Elders have helped us understand the synchronistic connections between the shifts, the bumps, and the awakenings of the collective consciousness of humanity. These bumps we feel are a part of an ancient code that activates a divine plan that triggers a planetary ascension process. The Star Elders feel that the year 2008 is the year thatwe will manifest the shift of the ages which they predicted 10,000 years ago. The Star Elders say that enough people on the planet are working with enough light that we have been able to tip the balance of the darkness back into the light. So, it was no surprise to me that in the last few months of 2007, all the puzzle pieces came together regarding the effects of this planetaryawakening of humanity. This is why our lives have felt . . . well . . . so discombobulated.

The Star Elders(1) humorously refer to this planetary ascension as the Domino Effect. Remember when you were a child, and you got that set a Dominos? Instead of playing the game, we all sat them up in a row, so when you knocked the first one down the others would quickly follow. This is why the Star Elders call this ascension process the domino effect. Because once youknock down the first domino, there is no stopping the rest from falling in succession. Such is our awakening process. Once we start the process to wake up, there is no turning back. Youcan't fail once you begin the journey. You can't slip back into darkness. It is impossible to unlearn the light. Let's say that again . . . It is impossible to unlearn the light!!!

The Star Elders organized all the symptoms and effects on humanity into seven simplified steps, or what they call the seven dominoes. They talk about what happens to us, how we reactto it, and what does it really mean to us now. We already know that symptoms of awakening and ascension can be quite challenging and even painful. But what this article plans to do is totake some of the sting out of the awakening, and put back the bliss and the joy in a process that we have long waited for.

The disciples sought Enlightenment, but did not know what it was or how it was attainable. Said the Master, "It cannot be attained". You cannot get hold of it." Seeing the disciples'downcast look, the Master said, "Don't be distressed. You cannot lose it either." And to this day the disciples are in search of that which can neither be lost nor taken hold of. ~ Anthony de Mello, SJ

So what might trigger your first domino to fall? What events might start the ball rolling so to speak? Many things can trigger the beginning of your ascension process. For some like me,sacred site travel (yearly trips posted on our web site) has been a great trigger for me. My first trip to a Mayan site in 1986 nudged me out of my spiritual laziness so I would finally facemyself, and begin to ask who I was, and why was I here. I have never looked back after that first visit to a sacred site. For many of us, meditation can also trigger and accelerate theascension process. For others, it might be practicing yoga. For some it might be a book or article that triggers you into remembering. Others might be triggered by things like sacred siteessences, (sacred site essences posted on our web site) or even a photograph of a sacred site that they had spent a past life in. But many times a huge life challenge or trauma can crack usopen so the brilliant light inside of us can begin to leak out. Through great trauma and loss we begin to reach for a greater meaning to life. This is a sacred wound and a Shaman's path. Eventually you remember that you never were in the darkness . . . you just forgot that you were in the light all along.

When I was in Palenque(2)in 1990, the Star Elders showed me the self-justifying creative force that the universe that was beginning to manifest on the planet. It manifests bit by bit. Themore this energy washes over the planet, the more affect it has on humanity. Anything and everything that is exposed to this creative energy is literally forced to come back into alignmentand in harmony with the laws of cosmic nature. This energy can cause all kind of interesting weird and often times undiagnosable symptoms. An incredible amount of spiritual fuel is beingused for this ascension process. We are literally being turned inside out and being pushed to the limit. Every ounce of our energy is being used. This is why we feel so incapable to copewith stress. The entire planet and every living thing is self-justifying right before our eyes. This is why we are feeling so much pressure in the world today. This is why we are so boredwith life. This is why we are in such a hurry. This is why we are so confused. This is why our body is giving us such problems.

The good news is that our spirits are really ready for this ascension process. In fact, our spirit can hardly wait to get there, wherever that is. Your spirit was ready . . . yesterday! Your spiritdoesn't have to deal with time, gravity and other laws of nature in the 3-D world like your body does. This is why having a vision is such a joyful event . . . but working to make it manifestcan be a huge drudgery. Your spirit is like a racehorse at the starting gate stomping its foot in frustration. The 3D mechanical mind that runs our body is our spirit's biggest challenge toovercome, because our body is holding spirit back. On the other hand, your body is struggling to keep up with your spirit. But this is the age where we ascend with not only our spirit, butalso carting along our physical body! We have never ascended so completely towing a body along before. In the past, we usually dumped our heavily programmed bodies and startedover. This also explains the huge amount of catastraphobia in the collective consciousness right now. You body remembers that we dumped it in the past. But this time we are not goingthat route.

Your spirit uses non-linier organic energy and intuition to manifest and to grow. It relishes in the unknown and likes exploring unknown territory. It isn't restricted by history, or pastexperience, or fear of the future. Spirit is very much like an innocent curious child that is eternally in the present moment. Your material body uses linear mechanicity, programs, patterns and history to maintain the body to keep itself safe. It is rarely in the present, and it sends out warnings about the future. When we begin to ascend, all that our body knows from pastexperience begins to shift. Our body literally freaks out, as it does not understand the unknown territory it is entering into. Our minds wildly race to look for relevant programs to use.

Unfortunately all your body knows is what has been in the past . . . and what we are moving into is a new future which does not use the old programs. Today, right now at this verymoment, we are stepping into the future. Many, and I dare say, most of the old programs we have used, do not apply anymore. It is like trying to use a "DOS" system in a "Windows XP"world. It is time to see the world as a little child because much of the past programming has become obsolete. Sometimes we are able to walk on the Spirit side for a while and get somereprieve from the building pressure. Other times we find ourselves forced back into the body dealing with 3-D reality. So it is the struggle between our spirit and our body that causes allthe weird symptoms. This leaves us asking the question . . . "What in the world is going on? And why?"

So below are the Seven Domino Steps. Remember that we will rarely do each step in perfect succession, one to another in a nice orderly fashion. No one ever said that waking up wasgoing to be an orderly process did they? You usually start with the first domino and then you may jump to the second and the third, while the first one is still evolving.

"There are no guarantees. From the viewpoint of fear, none are strong enough. From the viewpoint of love, none are necessary." ~ Emmanuel

Domino #1. We know we have begun the Ascension process when we hit . . . THE PRESSURE COOKER.

With the first Domino, we become aware to an increasing and indescribable energy. There is an intense pervading feeling that something is missing, but we don't know what. We findourselves asking . . . "Is there more to life than this?" We feel a tremendous amount of stress for no apparent reason. Our minds can get very busy like a thousand radio stations going atonce. It is hard for us to meditate. We don't sleep well. Generally we can feel rather burned-out, but we don't want to slow down. You can make life choices that rarely work out for you theway you expected. Life feels like a head-on collision. Remember, you are not the only one feeling this. 100% of humanity is doing this one if they admit it or not.

"One must have chaos in one's self in order to give birth to a dancing star." ~ Friedrich Nietzsche, 1844-1900 German philosopher

Domino #2. The pressure cooker causes a . . . CLEANING & CLEARING OF THE INNER TEMPLE.

A new higher vibration begins to flush out the denser energies. This is not a fun process. It can cause depression. We can have vivid, wild and violent dreams. We can becomecatastrophobic and paranoid. We open our eyes from a collective haze of denial. We see for the first time a larger picture of the world and realize that we are not physically safe as we mighthave thought. We might find ourselves taking survival classes, moving to a supposed safe area, and reading conspiracy theories. We might buy into negative prophecies of a doom andgloom future. We know the stories . . . the "world is going to end", and "we are all going to die" kind of scenarios. Many go through a dark night of the soul at this point. This clearing ofthe inner temple is releasing many lifetimes of lower vibrational energies and catastrophic past life histories. We will most likely do a lot of releasing at night in our dreams, and we canwake up feeling like a truck hit us. This phase of the ascension process can make us aware of the chasm between who we really are, and what we see in the mirror . . . triggering a deep griefand overwhelming feeling of loss. We might be obsessed with self criticism. The good news is that our feelings are clues to our awakening! When we remember who we really are, it alsomeans it is now possible to BE that powerful lighted one, and we can restore that heaven on earth again.

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that was going on inside himself. He said, "My son, it is between two wolves.... One is evil: Anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is good: Joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,generosity, truth, compassion and faith". The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee simply replied: "The one Ifeed".

Domino #3. All this clearing causes us to . . . REACTIVATE OUR SLEEPING KUNDALINI ENERGY.

This phase of the ascension process can cause physical, emotional and spiritual overload . . . causing heart palpitations, feeling restless, sleeplessness, headaches, ringing in the ears,dizziness, exhaustion, nausea, and feeling faint. Tightness in neck and shoulders is a big symptom of this phase. We need to sleep more . . . a lot more. We may experience electricaldisturbances with computers and other electronic devices. Does blowing out light bulbs sound familiar?

During this phase, we can be a bit narcissistic as we get a glimpse of who we truly are. We begin to feel how powerful we are. We begin to feel the inner wisdom rise up in us. We, as theysay, "see the light". If we are not careful, we might take this personally and begin to spout off that we are the second coming and are here to save the world! In a way, you really are thesecond coming . . . but you are not the chosen one. You are one of many awakening ones!

Awakening Kundalini energy causes frustration as we are vibrating at a higher rate, and we have to wait for the outside world to catch up. This can feel like it is taking forever. We almostwant to give up. Awakening Kundalini energy can also make us feel lost, alone and separate. While knowing we are connected to everything, we still can't seem to find HOME. We mightfind ourselves moving home base when the Kundalini domino is at work. Sadly, it might not feel good anywhere we go, and we worry that we will find no place left on Earth that does.

Everything feels just plain icky. We feel no personal security, and we might feel unbearably vulnerable. Personal relationships, and all areas of life, can be polarized to the extreme. As ourenergy becomes more powerful, we might have sudden shifts of interests of friends, activities, habits, jobs and homes. We find ourselves ending relationships that were out of alignmentwith new energy. Remember . . . like energy always attracts like energies. We find that people and surroundings that no longer match our vibration will simply go away. As we evolvehigher and higher, this phenomenon becomes more obvious. Remember to Breathe and let go. Live and let live. This domino makes us understand the true meaning of surrender.

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart ... Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens. ~ Carl Jung

Domino #4. Once the Kundalini begins its awakening, this sends us into the . . . GREAT EGO DISSOLVING.

Our ego is simply an illusion we have about ourselves. Our ego tells us who we are and why we are here based on programs and old, outdated history. Our ego is not based in spirit. Thedying of the ego can cause anxiety, panic and feelings of hysteria and anger. We will feel a loss of interest in current goals; and loss of sense of self. We might feel as if everything isdissolving from us and most of everything is! We might feel out of control, vulnerable, and powerless, with no frame of reference for what is appearing ahead of us. Many feel worthlessand think they have nothing to offer the world. We can feel like we may never find our life's purpose. Many are feeling like they are going to die, or want to give up. These mechanisticpatterns and behaviors that we are losing are not needed in the higher realms. Could it be that we are dying to the old ways of being, and letting go of our attachments to this world, so wecan move on to the next? Yes it is! It is here that a profound level of unity births inside us. In this Phase, the Savior evolves into a unified whole linked with a wave of awakening humanitythat by the way . . . will save the world!

Remember that the load you seemingly carry may very well be the light and the way for many others to follow ~ Gabbitas

Domino #5. Once the old ways of the ego begins to disappear, we begin to cross . . . THE BRIDGE . . . A GREAT DIVIDE.

We begin to enter a space where all time, space and dimension coincide all at once. We might have unusual aches and pains throughout different parts of our bodies and intense allergies.We might experience dimensional and future doorways either by seeing or hearing them. We won't have the usual compass to guide our lives. We are in between realities but notintegrated, and there is no time to integrate in. We might feel disorientated, not knowing where we are, and feel a loss of a sense of place. We might begin to have unusual visuals in theinner and outer worlds. We will have weird dreams where we find ourselves healing past atrocities. Atlantis, Maldek and other massive catastrophes in our past are being cleared out. Wewill feel painfully aware of things that are out of balance with natural cosmic law like war, hunger, abuse, pollution etc…. We will begin to feel a deep urgency to do SOMETHING -ANYTHING but won't know what that is. Now the outside world does not remotely match the way we are now vibrating. Everything feels so darn heavy. We might feel morning sicknesslike nausea and vertigo. The planetary gyroscope is being rebooted. We might feel an unplugged feeling when we actually move through and touch the other side. We can't describe thiswith words. We are meeting soul mates after long and fruitless searches. Memory loss and difficulty accessing words is an issue. The English language is dualistic and cannot moveforward with us into a world of higher frequencies where duality cannot exist. So as we begin to Ascend, we will have more trouble with words. This makes it really interesting trying tohave a conversation . . . unless the other is also at this level.

"Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of humans as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." ~ Helen Keller

Domino #6. When we cross the bridge far enough, we begin to BEND OUR LIGHT

We will find that working in a linear manner is not happening at all at this stage. We will find that we feel scattered at our work, and become like a butterfly skipping between one focus andanother. We feel compelled to do things that are not necessary or practical, and usually find ourselves doing the un-practical. We think we are wasting time, and then we feel guilty aboutthis. We find ourselves in a cycle of re-scheduling, re-working, re-ordering, and re-organizing, because we need re-covery and re-vitalization. We need to re-focus and are screaming outfor re-assignment.

We find that for the last time we are faced with long forgotten old dramas, old rivals and attacked by old enemies. Many of these old riffs, which we have given up on, have resurfaced sothey can heal . . . and some actually do to your amazement! We are bombarded with vague clues that don't make sense and feel twisted. The feelings of waves of nausea is more intensethis time around. We could have ringing in the ears in multiple frequencies, lung issues like we cannot breathe. We feel like choking and have strange hoarseness, which is creating oxygenlevel drops in our bodies. Do not hold your breath - BREATHE - BREATHE - BREATHE! Lower back issues and all over aches and pains have come back, and we could feel dizzy . . . likesomeone shoved you sideways and feel like we can't stand up straight. Plus we can't seem to stop yawning!

At the extreme, there may be a rise in many choosing not to stay here any longer, and many are in the process of saying "good bye". Many people, who never get depressed for anyreason, are feeling like quitting life. And quitting life is just what we need to do in order to make this shift. If we hang on to what we have known, we close doors to what is out ahead of us.

I am not saying to end your life. NO WAY. You came here to see this shift and all the amazing things that we will experience together. What I am saying here is that we are loosing ourattachment to things and this world. This is why you are becoming bored and want to quit. This really is a good thing!

"If you always think what you've always thought, You will always do what you've always done. If you always do what you've always done, You will always get what you've always got. Ifyou always get what you've always got, You will always think what you've always thought." ~ Author unknown

Domino #7. Now we are ready for the fun stuff! We begin to CREATE OUR REALITY!

Remember . . . what you create is what your entire being is telling the universal creative force. When we begin to shift, it is important for us to . . . STAY PRESENT. We can't createanything if we are worrying about the future or feeling guilty or remorseful for the past. Remember neither the past or the future really exists. So spirit does not understand this. STAYPOSITIVE . . . but stay real to what is going on. Remember . . . ALL FEELINGS are CLUES to something. Do not judge them - learn from them. Make sure we "don't water the weeds!" BEOUR AUTHENTIC SELVES . . . the world is full of imitations and well worn paths. BE OPENED HEARTED . . . staying in our HEARTS is the only way to shift this world into paradise. TRUST YOUR CORE no matter what the outer world says or does.

I will judge my success by how well I live my truth, not by how well my truth is received. ~ Jan Denise, "Naked Relationships"

Remember this is the longest journey we will ever make. That journey is the 13 inches from our HEADS to our HEART TEMPLE. This ascension journey we have been on was to simplyget out of our MINDS and return to the HEART TEMPLE. Once we arrive in the Heart temple, we can create anything. And we will!

Remember that the Earth is going through this process also. So if you are way ahead in this process, or way behind, you will still feel what the Earth is doing also. I love this, because it is agreat harmonizer and keeps us out of our egos while we learn to be a harmonious family once again.

Unfortunately reading this article will not make this process easier or even more blissful (darn!), but at least we know that we are not going crazy. Some ways to get through the biggestbumps on the ascension ladder are the simplest according to the Star Elders. Remember nature is emotionally neutral… so breathe lots of AIR, drink lots of WATER and get out and walkon the EARTH and let the SUN shine on you. Nature heals and harmonizes. Also things like homeopathy, essences, checking in with like-minded friends, yoga, meditation, sweat lodges,OK…I'll even say chocolate and going on a spiritual journey (with Aluna Joy's wild pilgrims :) all can help ease the physical shifts while you ride the wild ascension roller coaster.
