I was thinking about a pretty Deep Philosophical Conundrum last night ----- that perhaps this new age idea and politically correct Californian psychology that implied each individual is choosing something, say a life pattern, or drama... like me with the many levels of feeling like a victim, estranged, misunderstood, scapegoat... this base level shadow side of a multi-faceted 'story'.... well, the actual idea of 'changing my mind' ... on a soul level... is another way of shaming? That 'Oh boy,, I can't get this life lesson right', feeling is still feeling alone, isn't it? I keep going back to this place of desperation and despair from the patterns that spiral into my own lunacy..... The only way to shift patterns, perhaps, is not to even think about it. To let life's dramas and dance's play out... until we naturally and organically tire of them or develop new approaches, without a forced idea of 'I have to let this go, or I am mis-creating my life'...... To understand the levels that lead to unconscious patterning is inherent in the western psyche... that is shining the light of understanding upon them.... but it's the very 'split' western mind that thinks 'i have to get this right' .... to accept responsibility as a separate being making wholly incomplete decisions, is often actually part of the western dis-ease itself. We are not separate. We have lost true commune-ity. With ourselves and with the cosmos... we are TOO individuated. And so the western psychological and metaphysical idea that it's all down to our individual SELF, that we need to be the one to change it, that we are THE director, producer and actor in our own 'story'... well, that idea is again not taking account for the energetic dance, the wave vs. particle theory of life. Like they say that String Theory is philosophy and not really science, because at this point, they will never know if the strings are the surfaces of 'something' coming in from another dimension. The influences on a galactic and universal level are staggering. Each "I" is a centre, but the whole fucking whirling whilrds are full of centres. Are we insane and egotistical enough to think WE have THE power, seperate from what else is happening? No, the true 'master' is one who is in UNISON with all the other events that are happening AT ONCE. And time the greatest trickster is telling us that this story can be retold. Well, yes. And, no. I guess that's what I am saying. The dance is beyond the human linear ideas. Until we learn to think, feel, experience with all the dimensions and worlds, the idea of creating a new reality pragmatically, is still a selfish western notion.
(I read something last year about this book Return of the Dark/Light Mother or New Age Armageddon? Towards a Feminist Vision of the Future by Monica Sjoo.. and how she explores these issues of individuality vs. community as being new age, western, patriarchal denial.... have to say, I agree!)

"I will carry my gods within me, swallow my divinity whole.
The responsibily that clarity unveils...as I become the face of my soul."
Psychic Pollution
Psychic pollution spread by the popular media in the form of newspapers, television and advertising is toxic and detrimental to our divinity. We are sensitive instruments and our vibrationary level/frequency is affected by our observations.
Like a tuning fork we tend to vibrationally attune to the object/subject of our observations.
"News" is "some news", everyday at every minute everything that you could possibly think of then more is happening somewhere on this planet of ours. The news that is reported is little bits of usually negative stuff that we are publically told is newsworthy.
We then observe, reinforce and strengthen by our observation and attention whatever the "news" happens to be. We are not usually told of all of the wonderful things that are happening every single second all over this planet too. It is our decision where our attention is focused. It makes a difference where our attention is focused, it makes a difference how we "vibrate".
We hold the key to changing and helping to birth a new consciousness…the control panel lies within.
Eliminate or reduce your exposure to TV, to the "News" to newspapers, to advertising, take a few steps outside of "the consensus reality" and then look again. When you are within it you are attuned to it. Step outside and realise a new world lies within each of us but we must detach from the "programming" as that keeps us only able to access certain levels of consciousness.
Mass reality has a ceiling…get above that and there is a vastly different view.

From the time I was a baby, I've had to survive a life-threatening illness, a near drowing, nearly bleeding to death (twice), a snow blizzard, overcome brain damage, outlive a broken heart, find my way past a doctor's death sentence, endure the agony of being eaten alive, make my way through a hell hole, swim a sewer, sidestep death threats, and overcome a poisoning...
I've danced through an obstacle course that...
when I look back on it...
I see as proof that I can do anything...
I have turned stumbling blocks to stepping stones...
Whatever the barrier, I get through it...
or over it...
or under it...
or around it...
whatever it takes.
The important thing to me is Heaven on Earth...
the magic and the mystery...
Everything I've lived through has prepared me for this momentous truth.
I have a vision of what to do, and I'm doing it.
And life is beautiful.

I saw this title on the Events Calendar:
"Meeting the Planetary Challenge"
and I thought, "What *is* the Planetary Challenge?"
We all know about Global Warming, we know our air is polluted, our water poisoned...
some of us know the global drinking water supply has dwindled about 40% in the past 40 years, and that the world's ocean economy has plummeted over 50% over the past 40 years...
and then there's the Nuclear waste, and toxic waste, and depleted uranium, pesticides... and bovine spongiform
all getting into our water supply and our foods...
but what *really* is the Planetary Challenge?
What?
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy?
In our water?
Oh... they didn't tell you that?
... Ya see, after cows are slaughtered, there's a clean-up... with a waterhose, so all that cow fat and bones and stuff goes down the drain... into our rivers and oceans...
Let's see where was I?
Millions of different perspectives on this question of "Meeting the Planetary Challenge"... and perhaps thousands of different solutions to be offered...
So I'll offer my perspective on the problem and my solution:
The Planetary Challenge, as I see it, is to look at the problem from the Planet's perspective... and then to offer a solution based on the Planet's perspective.
I'm one from the growing crowd of believers in the unrefutable evidence that our Planet Earth is a sentient being, an intelligent life form.
I'll *prove* this very simply.
I know many people believe the Earth is just a dumb rock orbiting the sun.
But the Earth is not lifeless, the Earth is not stupid, the Earth is not without intelligence, and I will prove it.
Those who stand in judgment and proclaim the Earth to be stupid, I *challenge* you to *try* for 10 minutes...
*try* ...
living without the Earth's air...
*try* ...
a few days without the Earth's water or food...
*try*
a few weeks without any of the Earth's rocks...
without minerals...
without iron, magnesium, and other essential minerals...
then come back and tell me just how *stupid* the Earth is...
tell me the Earth hasn't a clue about *life*.
The truth is: We can't live without the Earth.
We haven't figured out yet how to do that.
But the Earth manages to provide us with what we need...
so we can live.
Because of this, we are not *separate* from the Earth.
I see myself as being ONE with the Earth.
And because of this...
I have insights into the perspective that Earth has on us.
I see the Planetary Challenge from Earth's perspective.
And I'll tell you what that is:
Earth demonstrates to us the way of life.
There are many errors in our cultural beliefs.
The scientific theories, and scientific laws of the mainstream culture have totally missed the mark.
If the experts had the answers, would we be in such a mess?
The economic theories are such hogwash... created by the morally and spiritually corrupt for the benefit of the morally and spiritually bankrupt.
The economic theories do not work for the people or for the planet.
Don't believe in the teachings of the mainstream culture. They are resulting in a sewer, a self-destructing society.
Allow Earth to teach what is true, and what does she demonstrate:
She freely gives.
Her very healthy economy is based on giving.
She demonstrates a Gift Economy...
of Freely Giving...
with a replenishment and healing...
rejuvenation and nurturance...
year after year after year.
Earth teaches many things but it is most rewarding to learn directly from her...
Begin by acknowledging the truth, appreciating all that you are, all that the Earth is, all that the universe is, and then ask deep within your soul, and out to the farthest star to *know* the truth.
And you will know.
"Love with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind and all your strength... Love and you will know."

What most people think of as *the real world out there* is really an illusion... a delusion created by the criminally insane... created by the billionaire's grubbing for more, their paid *economists* telling us that building a toxic factory will save our children's future... on and on the delusion and sickness goes...
Once we look beyond the mental illness of those who propose to lead the way, beyond the *reality* manifested by beliefs about wealth, superiority, economics, nature, humanity...
beyond what we're taught about *science* and the world we live in...
Once we look beyond the lies, and insist upon the truth,
we see who we are and what we're capable of, we see the truth of our magnificent Mother Earth and what she's capable of, we see *Life* ... the *spirit of Life* as the only reality... Everything else is an illusion that fades with time.
Only the Spirit of Life is real.
The Spirit of Life is Light, Love, Truth, Peace, Bliss, Eternity...
Everything else is just a temporary passing.
When we know ourselves as the Spirit of Life manifesting our bodies, our thoughts, our experiences, we have such a liberation of all we are.
Reject the *illusion* imposed upon us by the media, by the industrialists, the economists, the universities, the pharmaceutical companies, the weapons companies... don't believe in lies...
There is a truth far more beautiful...
and it lives in you.
The truth *is* you.

Happiness for us humans is fleeting at best. Consumed by our desire forpersonal love, success, and material wealth, we chase any and everythingOUTSIDE of us with unrelenting fervor in the face of unendingdisappointment, betrayal, and bitterness. More >

All that exists is the Now
The Past and the Future
Are just Images flashing
Through the Mind
Everything is flowing
The Wind, the Seas, the
Mountains and the Stars
The only Thing that stands
Still is Consciousness
Silently viewing the Flow
Whether we choose Fear
Or Love is up to Each
What you say, goes

Our world is struggling to renew and as a result many are facing tragedy on an immense scale. Safe journey, to those who are going home.
Journey Home
Seeker of truth
Seeker of light
Seeker of faith, come forth now
We are fractured
We are scarred
We seek nurturing and warmth
Our tasks have been painful
Our path has been arduous
Our spirit is fragile and we seek to go home
Seeker of truth
Seeker of light
Seeker of faith, come forth now and guide me home

Religion As A Control Mechanism:
The Kali Yuga, Ashoka, & Buddhism
Consider the entire history of every religion on this planet. We have had written history only for the past 6,000 years – a proverbial drop in the bucket of Time, even according to geologists.
Consider the arcane possibility that astral-alien entities have been controlling this planet for tens of1000s of years, and did in fact insert ‘religions’ for the purpose of controlling their human resource – us!
At the very least consider the idea that all religions emphasize obedience to an invisible god, the sacrifice of oneÂ’s own desires, and the delaying of personal fulfillment until after death in some promised heaven. More >
