<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Below is a partial dialogue between Chrysalis and Jose M. This all began with an idea that Jose proposed to us about 6 weeks ago. Since that time I have gotten to know Jose and there are some things I would like to tell you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Jose is a very talented and creative man with a simple goal and desire and a dedication to reach that goal. This project did not just pop into his head. He has been building background into the workings of permaculture for years. His experience is through "hands on" participation and study. He keeps copious notes of his plans and is always seeing promise around him to apply these ancient methods -- that are having a rebirth at this time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">He is very familiar with tilling in fields, harvesting crops, tending livestock and tenderly preserving the earth's ability to heal herself and provide abundant resources. Jose has documented his quest with professional photography and video and is a great asset to Chrysalis. His vision and talent are an inspiration and I hope we all catch fire with the desire to transform the Chrysalis property with beauty and abundant love. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You can help too! Please be supportive of Jose, contributions of even the smallest nature are deeply appreciated. If you <b>read his blog and website </b>you will learn what it takes. (links below) Please mention our efforts to friends and interested parties who might want to donate. Remember us in your prayer circles and Sunday School classes. Include links to our Chrysalis blogs and website in your email correspondence. Share our notices with your circles and friends on FaceBook and other social media. Remember, we already have a board on Pinterest and you can join. Tools are very important, mulch and compost material will be a big help. Finally, tho we never ask anybody to donate cash at our Chrysalis meetings, this might be the time to make sure you give what you can. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">In addition to Jose's work we cannot support the quality of guest speakers we have had without some income. A couple of our speakers refused payment and we appreciate that. When we get the banking problems settled we will set up a PayPal account and place donate buttons on our blogs and website. Until then, we must depend on our core group to keep our vision alive. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">After your read this, please drift down the page to read Jose's letter. Thanks to each and every one of you for the extra effort you have made in the name of love. Chrysalis appreciates it and seems to be smiling when we enter the building. We are ending a beautiful year and heading into an even better one.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Chrysalis,
a Swedenborg Fellowship I go to in DeLand, Florida, has giving me
permission to start a food forest on the church property! I will be
sharing every step of this process with you all. I will document its
development with photos and video.<br /><br />Right
now we are studying different plants such as fruits and other
perennials that will grow well in this area. Meanwhile, we are clearing
the dead grasses, trees and branches. Then we cut them down for mulch
and saving the hard wood for hugelkulture mounds.<br /><br />The
food forest will be primarily made with plants that are native to
Florida. Foreign fruit trees and perennial plants that grow well in this
region will also be planted to ensure a full year-round harvest of
food. I will focus on making sure each plant is situated at nature
intended.<br /><br />This
project is aimed to become a demonstration site for the local
community, where people are able to learn permaculture design and
principles, participate in co-creation with nature, and are able to
obtain food and seeds for trade.<br /><br />First
things first, we are going to look at the land and see what Gaia has
been up to. The property has not been trimmed or mowed in years. So
nature has totally taken over the site. There is a lot that we can
learn from it's natural state. We are seeking counsel from <a href="http://eattheweeds.com/" target="_blank">EatTheWeeds.com</a>, as well are reaching out to anybody knowledgeable with Florida's flora to help identify the wild plants.<br /><br />As
far as design is concerned, we are contemplating a few water features; a
pond or a contour damn as a water harvesting system connected with a
series of swales. I really am attracted to the idea of a pond, because
it can serve multiple functions; as a source of fish, possibly prawns
and mussels, plants such as blueberries and asparagus can grow on the
edges, and plants like American lotus can grow on the pond itself.<br /><br />The
plan is to spread projects like these all around our town so that in
the future, if there is ever a food crisis, it wouldn't be much of a
crisis because our town would have food security!<br />I
plan on organizing a meetup style 'working group' with locals of
DeLand that are interested in getting dirty by applying permaculture
principles of design on their properties. Please contact me if you are
interested in turning your yard into a food forest!<br />If you'd like to support the project at Chrysalis, please check out the wishlist below!<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/WQOUNNDANR4Q/ref=topnav_lists_1" target="_blank">Wish-List</a> Or you can <strong><a href="http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=4MJPZQ7GKQWVS" target="_blank">DONATE</a> </strong>and
I will ensure the money goes directly to purchasing needed resources
such as tools, trees, and/or other plants with long term benefits.<br />Namaste!<br />On Mon, Nov 17, 2014 at 12:43 AM, Jose Mediavilla <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jomediavilla@gmail.com" target="_blank">jomediavilla@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br />A few of my sites:<br />My Photography:<br /><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/joseomediavilla/sets/72157622982096002/" target="_blank">https://www.flickr.com/photos/<wbr></wbr>joseomediavilla/sets/<wbr></wbr>72157622982096002/</a><br />My Blog:<br /><a href="http://joseomedia.wordpress.com/author/jomediavilla/" target="_blank">http://joseomedia.wordpress.<wbr></wbr>com/author/jomediavilla/</a><br />Facebook:</span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/jose.o.mediavilla" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/jose.<wbr></wbr>o.mediavilla</a></span><br />

<h1>
See How The Colonization Matrix Works… Do Not Be Further Deceived… World Planetary Ancestral Clearings Now Needed</h1>
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">See How The Matrix Works: If you complain, then you do not fully
comprehend… if you fight, then you are not a friend… if you are bitter,
then you are not tasting the heart… if you want it to end, then perhaps
you haven’t yet started… if you hate, then it is indeed your fate… if
you are not present… then you cannot give nor receive any presents… if
you think it doesn’t matter… you’ve thought yourself away from what
does… if you act like you are special, then chances are you not… if you
are sorry, then you will receive reasons to be more sorry… if you say it
cannot done, then chances are you are looking the other way… if you
feel you have ‘figured out a limitation is true’, then you have created
another layer of the matrix, that you will need to break through… do
not be deceived… each thought… each bit of energy is creating the
matrix… every commercial you watch… every breath you take… past life
energy imprints are creating the matrix…</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">One of the ‘blind spots’ for humanity as a whole, is that we are
greatly influenced by other people’s thought forms… be careful if you
watch television at this time… chances are you have probably gone a
little heartless and mindless in your life… it’s that bad right now…</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We live the same problems over and over, because either we do not
learn the lesson, or we haven’t done the energy clearing… how’s that for
a big clue?</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Ask all harmful energies to now leave the planet for good… when we
are peace right now in this moment, the spirits who are at war, are able
to tap into our peace… can you be at peace with illuminati? Yes… the
question is… do you have the will to be at peace with those who are not
at peace with you? Yes… the matrix has now shifted where all
peacefilled beings are aligning and are thus, creating a big advantage
in creating the collective aspect of the matrix.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><b><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span>MORE ANCESTRAL CLEARINGS ARE
NEEDED! </span></span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span>You have been raising awareness and this is awesome considering
the circumstances… however humanity is a bit stuck when it comes to
doing ancestral clearings, so old wars are happening over and over in
stuck energy… In a state of neutrality… play… and I do mean “play”…
balance the adult and the child… play your drum in spirit… </span><span>sing your song in spirit… live your hear</span><span>t
in spirit.. invoke the new light in spirit… be as free in spirit as
possible. There is nothing here to conquer in the higher energies, that
are so much more comfortable than the heavy energies… nothing to prove
to each other. We prove ourselves to our Creator, in each other’s
presence, it is enough. If you want peace… prove to Creator that you are
peace… if you want love.. same thing and so on… okay the kicker here…
if you do ancestral clearings, the world we are desiring will come to us
with full on tribal power… “bring it on” or “yawn”?</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span>Those priests and
priestesses who can bring resolution here in earth, and in the etheric
world, are to bring in a new world tribe… not a new world order… be free
in the light in the moment with spirit… be extra heartful of limiting
thoughts… discard any energy that says “it cannot be done”… say to our
Creator… Thy will be done… and so it is… when you say something cannot
be done, you are in error because you cannot limit Creator… to the world
we say it with deep feeling… “I forgive you… I love you… please forgive
me… and thank you”… we are together in a moment where there is nothing
holding us back, and yet why do the masses hold back? It is the limiting
energies… release them on all levels… these profound opportunities,
that shall never pass this way ever again… and neither shall we… can you
feel our ancestors cheering us on to the finish line… can you see all
the enemies of all time… holding hands in the circle… can you not limit
the creator within those you do not resonate with? Look… you and me… we
are freeing this planet after eons of slavery… let’s give ourselves a
break eh? Let’s set our spirits free… it has to be real… we cannot just
talk about it… we have proven to be very willful, now we look into the
eyes of our Creator and say too with great presence and feeling, “I love
you… please forgive me… I thank you… and you rock!”. Indian in the
machine</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thank you for calling in a big ancestral planetary clearing… you
don’t need a shaman or priestess to do this, though it does help
greatly… just as a beginner can unclog a drain, so too can you unclog
your own energy blockages, but expertise does definitely help if the
house is flooding, and your energy continues to get heavier and he
hmmmm?… if you need help with that, there are lots of native spirit

colonial bitch, then we have to create another matrix… it is easy to do
when you know it to be true… just like the natives of north america had
their bison taken away… the general public have had their purer food

Philosophy and Theology</h1>
<span class="illumtext">T</span>he Swedenborgian Church bases its
teachings on the Bible as illuminated
by the works of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772), a Swedish scientist,
inventor, and theologian who made significant discoveries in many of the
natural sciences, including astronomy, anatomy, geology, and
mineralogy.
<br />
<br />
<table align="right">

<td> </td>
</tr>
</tbody></table>
At age fifty-five, his intensive search for answers to ultimate
questions culminated in an awakening that gave him a unique insight into
the workings of the spiritual world. Swedenborg envisioned a new
Christianity coming into being, revitalized by the Spirit of the Lord.
He spent the remainder of his life writing about his experiences and how
human beings can come to a deeper awareness of the divine.
<br />
Swedenborg's ideas have influenced people as diverse as Helen Keller,
Johnny Appleseed, William Blake, Henry James, Ralph Waldo Emerson, D.T.
Suzuki, Jorge Luis Borges, and Dr. Mehmet Oz. The continuing appeal of
his thought undoubtedly lies in his insights into the afterlife,
concepts of divine love, and focus on personal and social development.<br />
<br />
We believe that there is one God, known by many names.
We worship Jesus Christ as our Lord and our God. The Christian trinity of Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit are aspects of God just as soul, body, and activities are aspects of each
one of us.<br />
<br />
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God.
In its pages we find two parallel stories: the historical account of people, places, and
events; and within that account a deeper, spiritual reflection of our individual journeys.
Thus the Bible is alive and fresh today, speaking to us directly and personally about our
spiritual growth, and showing us the way to live better and more fulfilling lives.
<br />
We believe that people are spirits clothed with material bodies.
At death our material body is put aside and we continue living in the spiritual world in our inner,
spiritual body, according to the kind of life we have chosen while here on earth.<br />
<br />
We believe that religion touches all areas of our lives.
Our responsibility is to put what we believe into practice in our daily lives. All who do
this, of whatever faith, are saved since they are living in the spirit of Christ's name.<br />
<br />
The Swedenborgian Church exists to help people be more open to the
Lord's presence and leading, to facilitate the spiritual well-being of
people, and to work to further awareness of the new age in which we
live. A haven for seekers who share Swedenborg's quest for a religion
that interconnects with all of life, and for a system that allows
reasoned questioning of life's deepest religious issues, the
Swedenborgian Church encourages inquiry, respect for differences, and
acceptance of other traditions of life and religion.<br />
<br />
Swedenborg shared in his theological writings a view of God as
infinitely loving and at the very center of our being, a view of human
life as a continual rebirthing as we participate in our own creation, a
view of the Bible as a story of inner-life stages as we learn and grow, a
conviction that life continues - following the transition we call death
- to an eternity of growing fulfillment, and a central commitment to
live so as to help other people.<br />
<br />
<br />
We invite you to
participate with us as we deepen our inner life and spiritual journey.
<br />
<span class="headline">Our Affirmation of Faith</span>
<br />
<blockquote>
We worship the one God, our Savior Jesus Christ:<br />
Creator, Redeemer, Regenerator; who brings us <br />
into being, frees us from evils, and seeks to give us<br />
the full humanity for which we have been created.
Today the Lord comes to us anew in the spiritual <br />
understanding of the Holy Word. With its enlightenment <br />
and renewal of life, this disclosure is the Second<br />
Coming in Spirit, making possible a new and larger<br />
life as we love God in all people.
</blockquote>
<br />
<blockquote>
So far as we honor the Lord in worship and in life <br />
as the visible God in whom is the invisible Divine, <br />
we walk in the light of the Holy City, New Jerusalem.
<br />
Amen.

<span class="Lkb">What we need is not to “know” the truth but to experience it<br />~C.G. Jung~<br /> </span><br />
<br />
<span class="Lkb">From the website of Ursula K. Guinn </span><br />
<br />
<span class="Lkb">All the Knowledge you need is inside of You.<br />It takes a proper series of Questions and the Correct Answers to access them.<br />Even
a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word
happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.<br />It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.<br />Hmmm, virtues.<br />There are:<br />Seven Virtues/Seven Sins.<br />Learn from your Sin.<br />Understand your Virtues.<br />The beginnings of balance through correct harmony, both inner, and outer.<br /><br />1) Humility<br />2) Pride<br />3) Patience<br />4) Wrath<br />5) Temperance<br />6) Gluttony<br />7) Kindness<br />8) Envy<br />9) Charity<br />10) Greed<br />11) Chastity<br />12) Lust<br />13) Diligence<br />14) Sloth<br /> </span></div>
<div class="gzb oZa">
<span class="Lkb">Hmmm,, 14 in total. I love 14, goes well with 11. ;)<br />Odd Numbers (+) Positive<br />Even Numbers (-) Negative<br />Positive and Negative are attracted to each other.<br />Perhaps, there are 14 Dimensions/Multi Universe<br />Each Dimension/M.U representing a Chakra Ego Lifeline (C.E.L.)<br />What if each Lifeline is happening now. Time exist for our Body but not our Mind<br />Each C.E.L. is a past life living and learning that Sin or Virtue<br />Each one representing either a positive or a negative aspect of the Ego.<br /><br />What if, You really could heal your past?<br />Wouldn't that be an amazing yesterday? :)<br />I
might not have the answer yet to that question,but i can give you a
hint, about what you can do today, that might heal your tomorrow.<br /><br />When ‘Wants’ outweigh ‘Needs”<br />There is Unbalance.<br />When ‘Needs’ outweigh ‘Wants’<br />There is Unbalance.<br />By Balancing your ‘Needs’ and ‘Wants’<br />You create Harmony.<br />Harmony is what allows us to remain balanced,<br />and with/in the proper flow of all that is natural.<br />And this is a very good thing for your tomorrow.<br />All of them. :)<br /><br />OR
, you can continue on the path you have been told is the path which you
chose for yourself, by those who you allow to think for you.<br />By those who tell you what it is that YOU are feeling<br />By those who not only asked you the questions, but also supplied you with their easy answers,,,,,<br />By those who create within your mind, body and soul,,, a cloned version of their own vain and twisted fantasies.<br />Were you born you, or some body else?<br />And were they born you?<br />Did the heavenly father mistakenly count the hairs on their head as your own????<br /><br />Fantasy
is not antirational, but pararational; not realistic but surrealistic, a
heightening of reality. In Freud’s terminology, it employs primary not
secondary process thinking. It employs archetypes which, as Jung warned
us, are dangerous things. Fantasy is nearer to poetry, to mysticism, and
to insanity than naturalistic fiction is. It is a wilderness.</span></div>

Chrysalis still needs members to help with our summer clean-up. Call Barry Colley or email him and ask what would be a good time. <b><i>Then, call at least one other member to meet with you there.</i></b> You might want to bring cleaning supplies. We needs lots of Liquid Gold for the walls. Get a list from Barry. </div>

On a sad note: thieves have been at work again and burglarized the Chrysalis Sanctuary and the private apartment of Lois and Barry. We would appreciate the gift of a video surveillance system and perhaps a motion detector. Barry has already changed locks and installed an impenetrable door at his own expense. I am asking for imaging of a strong barrier of positive white light around the Chrysalis Center and love strengthening the safety of the interior and exterior. May the natural order and balance bring peace to the surroundings.</div>

we welcome a guest speaker, Rev. Phil DeLong. Your attendance is
important as we embrace new speakers, new leadership and a renewed
direction for our group.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Below is a pesonal message from Dr. Phil DeLong to members of Chrysalis Spiritual Center. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This message is provided by Saundra Emerson of Bamboo Arts. Thanks to Saundra for her efforts in securing Dr. DeLong to speak. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Refreshments and coffee will be served. Old and new members please attend as a show of support for your church.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
I AM Reverend Dr. Phil, an
ordained minister, healer, teacher, and spiritual counselor through the
International Association of Metaphysics. I am an ordained minister
through the Lively Stones World Healing Fellowship, and also received my
Doctor of Ministry degree from Lively Stones Fellowship.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
I AM a Psychic Medium and Mystic. Through my
Guides, I use my psychic gifts to connect to spirit to bring through
your loved ones and guides for the messages you need. I have made an
effort to integrate the expressed intelligence of many who carry the
torch of truth. I embrace the expression of gratitude for the Light I
have been granted, and to share my gifts for the service of others.
Embracing Hope, it is the one Truth that acknowledges the validity of
all predictions is in the hands of those who are willing to make change,
and use their Free Will accordingly. I have been attuned to crystals
and Metaphysics since early childhood, and have had a near-death
experience. This experience has brought me to the arms of Spirit in the
Angelic Realm, and has guided my path. I see the world through different
eyes.<br />
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
I AM a Crystal Skull caretaker, and work with the Crystal
Skull energies for healing and divine communication. I have a strong
tie to the mineral kingdom with my love and passion of crystals and
rocks. I also have a strong connection and knowledge of Native American
and indigenous peoples.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">"Sacred objects may need physical protection, but the spiritual in itself is quite beyond violation. The sacred opens easily to those who approach it sacredly, but it is not even in the distant view of the profane. It doesn't exist for them. ... this ample safeguard is woven into the the very nature of the sacred. It is those who have not turned to God contritely who consider God's ways dark, occult, and mysterious. To a mystic they are as clear and plain as can be." </span></span><br />

<br />By Tara Sutphen<br /><br /><br /><br />The Full Pink Moon (Native American) at 25* Libra will culminate April 15, 2014 12:46am PDT/ 3:46am EDT (Farmers Almanac) and a Total Eclipse with a Grand Cross.<br /><br /> There are a many aspects for this Full Pink Moon in Libra. The gentleness of Libra eloquently allows a certain grace with potency, as no other planet could with a Total Eclipse. When we have an eclipse we will need to change or let go of something holding us back. It brings something exciting or illuminating to each of us. The “Blood” moon will be seen in a Tetrad phase of light, the same phenomenon observed every sunrise and sunset. We have a Grand Cross, all are at 13’s with two oppositional Space stances.<br /><br /> Just a bit of amazing Moon and Planet energy showering down upon us earthlings. We’re ready for it right? We’re in harmonious acceptance. We have an opportunity to clear responsibilities and old karma. We are ready… <br /><br /> First of all, purge all that no longer serves you. Do not dwell on the negative, sit with your eyes closed and take a couple deep breaths, remove all pressure, heaviness and worries away from your body and then away from your aura – feel the lightness of your being. Now…. Take a couple deep breaths. Start to feel all your chakras turn in a clockwise direction. It’s time to do some internal spring-cleaning. Aren’t you feeling better when you’re activating your life force.<br /><br />As you clear away the old to make way for the new, this is certainly not a time to wish away your life. It’s time to reach a certain balance, which means we don’t go too inward or outward with our personalities and fears. Instead we are to fill ourselves with trust of who we are, to the core of our being with the brightest light and connection of God.<br /><br /> You are to be seen in the world. This is not to say you want to be a singer, actor or any outward profession. It’s all about keeping our self in balance. Many people try to make themselves invisible or blend in. They think it’s comfortable not to participate in the world. They say one thing and mean another, or end up doing things they never wanted to do. Or they physically hide. They stop participating, even with their own health or knowledge. Whether it’s not having an opinion, asking another person a question to start a conversation, getting a job you want, or seeking real love.<br /><br />This is not to say we don’t compromise in relationships, families, friendships and our jobs. Dust yourself off. Shine in the rays of the moons glow. The moon is saying to turn on the lights in your heart, in your mind and in your soul. Not only as the moon beams, you are to glow. Beam as you really are… You are to be seen in the world.<br /><br /><br />Journal Questions: If you journal read on<br /><br /><br />

Meditation By Tara Sutphen</h4>
<br />“<b>Zing</b>” — a Magic entering the Mind … Ideas form into thoughts and daydreams.<br /><br />Muses spark the creative process and stimulate one’s endeavors into fitting ventures. Overcome your obstructions, whether lacking confidence or intangible concepts. Sometimes we can get lost in indefinable and elusive development. In Greek Mythology the Muses gave inspiration to everyone and granted wishes. They have encouraged artists since antiquity, acknowledged for their importance in resourceful innovation and formation.<br /><br />In this meditation each Muse will grant you her gift, guiding you toward greater resourcefulness and motivation. The Muses inspire inception to the completion of an urge, starting projects from outset to finish. Search for variety of the inner you and your talents, bring your childhood desires into reality. Have you been struggling and need extra support? Let the Muses encourage you in the direction of a greater fate. 30 Minutes.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512983598811114042.post-42300534601289259862014-04-06T11:26:00.001-07:002014-04-06T11:26:25.354-07:00MENTAL CONNECTION TO ILLNESSES<h2>
Connecting Your Health to Your Mind</h2>
Self help writer and lecturer <a href="http://www.powerfulintentions.org/forum/topics/louise-hay-a-z-for-your-reference" target="_blank">Louise Hay</a> has a magnificent blog with a nearly complete list of ailments of the human body that can be related to mental attitudes, beliefs, emotions or concepts. If you have a problem or want to help people whom you counsel, you may want to use this list as a reference.<br />
<br />

<br />
Most of us go blindly through distress knowing that there must be a psychological cause and effect force influencing our health. Now, if we can pinpoint the core problem and connect it to our conditions we can start healing ourselves faster than we ever have. We all know that a positive attitude and good thoughts are good ways to stimulate the immune system. Now we can vaccinate for every illness by knowing the root cause.<br />

Neuroscience Event Highlights Healing Power Of Music</h2>
<small><span class="notification"></span> Posted on: May 13, 2013</small><br />
<br />
“Music cannot be a neurosurgeon, but music has a strong power,” said
College of Medicine neuroscientist Dr. Kiminobu Sugaya, who helped plan
the “Music and the Brain” event. Dr. Sugaya actually teaches a “Music
and the Brain” course with Dr. Ayako Yonetani in the UCF Honors College.
Saturday’s event offered the public an opportunity to learn more about
the science of music during the three-hour symposium. As participants
listened to Dr. Sugaya’s words on neuroscience , the sounds of violin
music played by Dr. Yonet played in the background.<br />
<br />
“Music and the Brain” was held in conjunction with the newly formed
Central Florida Society for Neuroscience, which is working to unite
scientists whose work relates to the brain.<br />

“We try to bring all the neuroscience forces together at UCF to make
these things happen.” Dr. Sugaya said. “Today was just a kickoff, and we
want to provide more and more visibility to our area.”<br />
<br />
Dr. Sugaya also presented evidence of how music can improve symptoms
for patients with Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease improve. One
Parkinson’s disease patient who could hardly walk was able to complete
tasks much more quickly when music was played, and could even dance.<br />
<br />
The local Society for Neuroscience chapter is hoping to illustrate
how many different fields are applicable to Neurology. From computer
science to anthropology, the society’s graduate student president, Max
Jackson says all fields have something to contribute. “We believe that
neuroscience is only going to grow in its importance,” he said. “As it
becomes much more culturally salient, we want to bring as many
perspectives into the fold as possible.”<br />
<br />
The group hopes to hold more events like “Music and the Brain” to
increase membership, and educate the public on the relevance of
neuroscience in their everyday lives<br />

Music
helps patients heal, from preventing seizures to easing their pain, and
on May 11, scientists gathered at the UCF College of Medicine to learn
the the medicinal power of music and its everyday application to
science.<br />

Dr.
Sugaya explained the many effects that music can have on humans,
including preventing seizures (or actually causing them), and reducing
pain. He showed video containing various types of music to show how they
evoke vastly different emotions. Some clips showed people who were able
to achieve painful feats like body piercing, without feeling any pain,
because they were listening to music.</div>

<h2>
Tibetan Bells Used in Healing Process</h2>
<h3>
</h3>
Healing with bells is a flourishing practice in Tibet and other Hindu or Asian cultures. This method, thousands of years old, is reaching acceptance in the Western world as well. The first ring of the bell clears Karma or fragments of past lives. The second ring of the bell clears Karma collected in the present life. And the third ring of the bell clears Karma of future lives.<br />
<br />
Use of bells and bowls in healing is gaining popularity because of the benefits reported by participants. A demonstration of the singing bowls is a transformative experience for the novice. The imagination takes you to a place where you experience perfection in color, sound, and the texture of life itself. If you have an opportunity to attend a bell or bowl service you will be truly blessed. <br />

<br />For over 30 years I have been joking about being kept awake at night by music and other sound phenomena that I can hear, but nobody else can<em>. </em>Today I heard a program on Public Radio that interviewed doctors or psychiatry and neurology who not only recognize this condition, but have a concrete name for it. It is called <i>musical hallucination</i>. First let me emphasize that many people have this same condition and hallucinating does not mean the same thing as mental illness.<br />
<br />
At one time in history hallucination was not considered a medical term and people often deferred telling others of this phenomenon because they were afraid of some sort of punishment or retribution. <br />
<br />
It seems that the brain not only hears what the ear reports - <i>it also reports what it has heard to the ears</i> as well. The ear-brain connection is a two way street. When there is a lot of outside noise the reporting subsides and the patient is free of music playing in her head. As quiet ensues, such as being alone or going to bed, the brain decides to send musical messages to the ears (consciousness). The interviewers talked about lullabies, hymns, religious music and so on. In my case I am forced to listen to The Grand Ole Opry and on occasion Lawrence Welk, and stage shows from the Indiana State Fair. My hallucinations are complete with guest performances, announcers, interviews, gospel quartets, and talented children singing or playing the violin. A real treat is performances by Caruso, Mario Lanza, Gallikurchi, and Pavarotti. Many of the tunes I hear are patriotic and often heard at parades and military affairs. All this music is the <i>least liked </i>in my list of favorite songs.<br />
<br />
Personally I have a form of dislexia that improves if I memorize to music. As a child I wanted to be a professional singer and a star in my musical family. I memorized the lyrics to probably over 300 or 400 songs by listening to them over and over. Now, I can refresh my memory and sing almost any of those songs - having memorized the lyrics, melodies and rhythms in the past. <br />
<br />
And that's not all! The other senses are also teased or alerted by a bored brain such as: smells, sensations of touch, parasites on the skin, perfume, and missing limbs replaced. I told the dental assistant last week I was not really afraid because angels were with me. I did not see or hear angels, but I could smell them all around. An outstanding example of this is the time I smelled elephants in downtown DeLand. I also frequently smell pipe tobacco, gardenias, roses, smoke, and cedar. <br />
<br />
Except for losing sleep and not being able to change the station on my internal radio-brain, I am not bothered by the music. I can now stop blaming the house for possibly being haunted and other solutions I have tried to formulate to explain my great mystery. It is not necessary to have a brain injury or trauma to develop this condition. <br />
<br />
I wanted to give this insight to my friends and family and encourage people who taste, smell, feel and hear strange things to be open to the meaning. Dr. Sachs believes his hallucinations are messages or warnings from his brain to help guide him through life. If so, I would appreciate a some genuine compliments (atta girl) and some really cool jazz. <br />

<b><em>This interview was originally broadcast on Nov. 16, 2013</em></b><br />
<em><br /></em>
In Oliver Sacks' book <em>The Mind's Eye,</em>
the neurologist included an interesting footnote in a chapter about
losing vision in one eye because of cancer that said: "In the '60s,
during a period of experimenting with large doses of amphetamines, I
experienced a different sort of vivid mental imagery."<br />
<br />
He expands on this footnote in his book, <em>Hallucinations,</em>
where he writes about various types of hallucinations — visions
triggered by grief, brain injury, migraines, medications and
neurological disorders.<br />
<br />
One chapter of the book — that's out in
paperback July 2 — deals with altered states and Sacks' personal
experimentation with hallucinogenic and mind-altering drugs in the '60s.
He says the first time he tried marijuana, it induced fascinating
perceptual distortion. He was looking at his hand, and it appeared to be
retreating from him, yet getting larger and larger.<br />
<br />
"I was
fascinated that one could have such perceptual changes, and also that
they went with a certain feeling of significance, an almost numinous
feeling. I'm strongly atheist by disposition, but nonetheless when this
happened, I couldn't help thinking, 'That must be what the hand of God
is like.' "<br />
Sacks tells <em>Fresh Air</em>'s Terry Gross that
he has always been fascinated with hallucinations — from reading about
Pip's hallucination of Miss Havisham in Charles Dickens' <em>Great Expectations</em>
to witnessing hallucinations of every sort as a medical student and
doctor. He had a personal interest in the phenomenon, he explains,
because his brother was a schizophrenic — and "would talk with his
hallucinations." <br />
Sacks has also had his share of non-induced
hallucinations. One day while mountain climbing, he experienced an
auditory hallucination after an injury that tore most of his thigh
muscle and dislocated his knee. His first impulse was to go to sleep —
but then he heard a voice that he didn't recognize yet trusted.<br />
<br />
"
'No, that would be death,' " he recalls it saying. " 'Go on. You've got
to keep going. Find a pace you can keep up and keep it up.' And this
was a very clear, commanding voice. It was a life voice, and it was not
to be disobeyed."<strong> </strong><br />
<br />
Neurologically, Sacks
speculates that this type of auditory hallucination is something that
announces itself in extremity, and is "the ultimate safeguard, some
power or propensity which has been built into the structure of the mind,
the emotions," and is not heard by most people in their lives.<br />
<br />
Sacks
notes that the medicalization of hallucinations really only occurred in
the 19th century — and that subsequent to that, there was much more
anxiety, secrecy and shame about hallucinations.<br />
<br />
"I think
hallucinations need to be discussed," he says. "There are all sorts of
hallucinations, and then many sorts which are OK, like the ones I think
which most of us have in bed at night before we fall asleep, when we can
see all sorts of patterns or faces and scenes."<br />
<br />
With the
ability to visualize the brain through cutting-edge medical
technologies, Sacks believes, the scientist's sense of the brain's
complexity has been increased; it's now possible to see exactly what's
going on in the brain while people are hallucinating.<br />

<strong>On a memorable hallucination while taking LSD</strong><br />
"I
had been reading about the color indigo, how it had been introduced
into the spectrum by [Isaac] Newton rather late, and it seemed no two
people quite agreed as to what indigo was, and I thought I would like to
have an experience of indigo. And I built up a sort of pharmacological
launchpad with amphetamines and LSD, and a little cannabis on top of
that, and when I was really stoned I said, 'I want to see indigo <em>now</em>.' And as if thrown by a paintbrush, a huge pear-shaped blob of the purest indigo appeared on the wall.<br />
<br />
"Again
it had this luminous, numinous quality; I leaped toward it in a sort of
ecstasy. I thought, 'This is the color of heaven.' ... I thought maybe
this is not a color which actually exists on the Earth, or maybe it used
to exist or no longer exists. All this went through my mind in 4 or 5
seconds, and then the blob disappeared, giving me a strong sense of loss
and heartbrokenness, and I was haunted a little bit when I came down,
wondering whether indigo did exist in the real world.<br />
<br />
"I would
turn over little stones. I once went to a museum to look at azurite, a
copper mineral which is maybe the nearest [to] indigo, but that was
disappointing. I did in fact have that experience again, but when I had
it the second time, it was not with a drug, it was with music — and I
think music can take one to the heights in a way comparable with drugs."<br />
<br />
<strong>On hallucinations that accompany bereavement</strong><br />
"With
any hallucinations, if you can do functional brain imagery while
they're going on, you will find that the parts of the brain usually
involved in seeing or hearing — in perception — have become super active
by themselves. And this is an autonomous activity; this does not happen
with imagination. But hallucination, in a way, simulates perception,
and the perceptual parts of the brain become active. ... There's
obviously a very, very strong passionate feeling of love and loss with
bereavement hallucinations, and I think intense emotion of any sort can
produce a hallucination."<br />
<br />
<strong>On the hallucinations accompanying his migraines</strong><br />
<div class="bucketwrap pullquote" id="res193928814">

<br />
"I usually get the zigzag, but I may also see lattice patterns,
like tessellations; sometimes these lattice patterns seem to cover
people's faces or a piece of paper I'm writing on. I mostly get complex
geometrical patterns; I've never actually seen ... images with a
migraine, although on at least on two occasions, I've had a smell — in
particular a smell of hot buttered toast — with a strong sense that I
was about 3 years old, being put in a high chair, and about to be given
hot buttered toast. A sort of olfactory hallucination often goes along
with recollection in that sort of way.<br />
<br />
"The first time I got
that, I was in hospital and I went searching for the toast. The second
time, I was driving on the Bronx River Parkway, where there was
obviously no toast to be had."<br />
<br />
<strong>How visual migraines may have inspired ancient patterned art </strong><br />
"There
are all sorts of complex geometrical patterns, very symmetrical, some
of them looking like the finest doily. ... Patterns like this tend to
appear in migraine, but they may also appear with fever. They also
appear with various drugs. They may also be seen as one is falling
asleep, and one can't help comparing them with various forms of
ornamental art and cave art, and wondering whether individuals or
cultures have been inspired by some of these patterns which are built
into the nervous system." <i>(Every time I close my eyes I see a new pattern in full color like the lining of a book cover or a piece of silk fabric. NS)</i><br />
<br />
Dr. Sachs draws a line of differentiation between Imagination and Hallucination. I plan to read The Mind's Eye and his other book Hallucination.<br />

<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">
Published: 11:10 AM
1/12/2014 TEHRAN (FNA)- Former National Security Agency (NSA)
contractor Edward Snowden revealed documents providing
incontrovertible proof that an alien/extraterrestrial intelligence
agenda is driving US domestic and international policy, and has been
doing so since at least 1945, some media reports said.<span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br />A
stunning Federal Security Services (FSB) report on the nearly two
million highly classified top-secret documents obtained from the
United States Department of Defense (DOD) run National Security
Agency-Central Security Service (NSA/CSS) by the American ex-patriot
Edward Snowden states that this information is providing
“incontrovertible proof” that an “alien/extraterrestrial
intelligence agenda” is driving US domestic and international
policy, and has been doing so since at least 1945, Whatdoesitmean.com
reported.<br /><br />Edward Snowden is a computer specialist, a former
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) employee, and former NSA/CSS
contractor who disclosed these classified documents to several media
outlets in late 2012 and was granted temporary asylum in Russia in
2013 after his designation by the Obama regime as the “most wanted
man on earth.”<br /><br />This FSB report further states that Snowden,
in December, 2012, contacted the highly respected American columnist,
blogger, and author Glenn Greenwald by an email headed with the
subject line stating, “I and others have things you would be
interested in.?.?.?.”<br /><br />In Snowden’s own words, this report
continues, he outlined to Greenwald the reason for his highly
secretive group obtaining and releasing these documents by warning
that that there “were actually two governments in the US, the one
that was elected, and the other, secret regime, governing in the
dark.”<br /><br />As to who is running this “secret regime” Snowden
and his cohorts were warning about, FSB experts in this report say,
was confirmed this past weekend by former Canadian defense minister
Paul Hellyer who was given access to all of Snowden’s documents by
Russian intelligence services and stated they were, indeed,
“accurate.”</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />Even though Defense Minister Hellyer’s exact
statements to the FSB in regards to Snowden’s documents remain
classified, shortly after his “extensive electronic interview” by
the FSB he was allowed to appear on Russia Today’s program SophieCo
this past fortnight where he shockingly admitted that aliens have
“been visiting our planet for thousands of years” and described
several types of these extraterrestrials, including “Tall Whites”
who are working with the US Air Force in Nevada.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Of the many
explosive revelations in this FSB report, the one most concerning to
Russian authorities are the Snowden’s documents “confirming”
that the “Tall Whites” (further revealed by Defense Minister
Hellyer as noted above) are the same extraterrestrial alien race
behind the stunning rise of Nazi Germany during the 1930’s.<br /><br />In
just one example of the many outlined in this FSB report, it shows
that with this “alien assistance,” at the end of the 1930’s,
when Nazi Germany possessed just 57 submarines, over the four years
of World War II it built 1,163 modern technologically advanced
submarines at its dockyards and even put them into
operation.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />Snowden’s documents further confirm, this report
says, the “Tall Whites” (Nordic) meetings in 1954 with US
President Dwight D. Eisenhower where the “secret regime”
currently ruling over America was established.</span></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.2in;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />Most disturbingly,
this FSB report warns, is that the “Tall White” agenda being
implemented by the “secret regime” ruling the United States calls
for the creation of a global electronic surveillance system meant to
hide all true information about their presence here on earth as they
enter into what one of Snowden’s documents calls the “final
phase” of their end plan for total assimilation and world
rule.<br /><br />Unbeknownst to the FSB, this report confirms, are those
still in the US government backing Snowden, but whose presence
Russian intelligence experts note is “unmistakable” and shows a
cataclysmic power struggle is currently underway against this “secret
regime” now headed by Obama by “forces unknown.”<br /><br />Most to
be feared by Russian policy makers and authorities, this report
concludes, is if those opposing the “Tall White” “secret
regime” ruled over by Obama have themselves aligned with another
alien-extraterrestrial power themselves.</span></div>

“From
childhood I was compelled to concentrate attention upon myself. This
caused me much suffering, but to my present view, it was a blessing in
disguise for it has taught me to appreciate the inestimable value of
introspection in the preservation of life, as well as a means of
achievement. The pressure of occupation and the incessant stream of
impressions pouring into our consciousness through all the gateways of
knowledge make modern existence hazardous in many ways. Most persons are
so absorbed in the contemplation of the outside world that they are
wholly oblivious to what is passing on within themselves. The premature
death of millions is primarily traceable to this cause. Even among those
who exercise care, it is a common mistake to avoid imaginary, and
ignore the real dangers. And what is true of an individual also applies,
more or less, to a people as a whole.”<br />

Text from Urantia Newsletter</h3>
<sup>(1089.11)</sup> <sup>99:4.3</sup> True
religion is a meaningful way of living dynamically face to face with the
commonplace realities of everyday life. But if religion is to stimulate
individual development of character and augment integration of
personality, it must not be standardized. If it is to stimulate
evaluation of experience and serve as a value-lure, it must not be
stereotyped. If religion is to promote supreme loyalties, it must not be
formalized.<br />
<sup>(1089.12)</sup> <sup>99:4.4</sup> No matter
what upheavals may attend the social and economic growth of
civilization, religion is genuine and worth while if it fosters in the
individual an experience in which the sovereignty of truth, beauty, and
goodness prevails, for such is the true spiritual concept of supreme
reality. And through love and worship this becomes meaningful as
fellowship with man and sonship with God.<br />
<sup>(1090.1)</sup> <sup>99:4.5</sup> After all,
it is what one believes rather than what one knows that determines
conduct and dominates personal performances. Purely factual knowledge
exerts very little influence upon the average man unless it becomes
emotionally activated. But the activation of religion is superemotional,
unifying the entire human experience on transcendent levels through
contact with, and release of, spiritual energies in the mortal life.<br />
<sup>(1090.2)</sup> <sup>99:4.6</sup> During the
psychologically unsettled times of the twentieth century, amid the
economic upheavals, the moral crosscurrents, and the sociologic rip
tides of the cyclonic transitions of a scientific era, thousands upon
thousands of men and women have become humanly dislocated; they are
anxious, restless, fearful, uncertain, and unsettled; as never before in
the world’s history they need the consolation and stabilization of
sound religion. In the face of unprecedented scientific achievement and
mechanical development there is spiritual stagnation and philosophic
chaos.<br />
<sup>(1090.3)</sup> <sup>99:4.7</sup> There is
no danger in religion’s becoming more and more of a private matter — a
personal experience — provided it does not lose its motivation for
unselfish and loving social service. Religion has suffered from many
secondary influences: sudden mixing of cultures, intermingling of
creeds, diminution of ecclesiastical authority, changing of family life,
together with urbanization and mechanization.<br />
<sup>(1090.4)</sup> <sup>99:4.8</sup> Man’s
greatest spiritual jeopardy consists in partial progress, the
predicament of unfinished growth: forsaking the evolutionary religions
of fear without immediately grasping the revelatory religion of love.
Modern science, particularly psychology, has weakened only those
religions which are so largely dependent upon fear, superstition, and
emotion.<br />
<sup>(1090.5)</sup> <sup>99:4.9</sup> Transition
is always accompanied by confusion, and there will be little
tranquillity in the religious world until the great struggle between the
three contending philosophies of religion is ended:<br />
<blockquote>
<sup>(1090.6)</sup> <sup>99:4.10</sup> 1. The spiritistic belief (in a providential Deity) of many religions.<br />
<sup>(1090.7)</sup> <sup>99:4.11</sup> 2. The humanistic and idealistic belief of many philosophies.<br />
<sup>(1090.8)</sup> <sup>99:4.12</sup> 3. The mechanistic and naturalistic conceptions of many sciences.</blockquote>
<sup>(1090.9)</sup> <sup>99:4.13</sup> And
these three partial approaches to the reality of the cosmos must
eventually become harmonized by the revelatory presentation of religion,
philosophy, and cosmology which portrays the triune existence of
spirit, mind, and energy proceeding from the Trinity of Paradise and
attaining time-space unification within the Deity of the Supreme.<br />

</ul>
<b>Closer To Truth</b> is the definitive series on <b>Cosmos, Consciousness </b>and<b> God</b>, a global journey in search of the vital ideas of existence. It is the most complete, compelling, and accessible series on <b>Cosmos, Consciousness </b>and<b> God</b> ever produced for television.<br />
<br />
<b>Closer To Truth</b> explores fundamental issues of
universe, brain/mind, religion, meaning and purpose through intimate,
candid conversations with leading scientists, philosophers, scholars,
theologians and creative thinkers of all kinds. The shows are a rich
visual experience, shot entirely on location in high definition with
multiple cameras generating rich production values. The visual lushness
of the high definition, on-location productions, combined with the
intriguing titles of the shows, builds audiences already interested in
mankind's greatest questions.<br />
<br />
Public fascination with questions of <b>Cosmos, Consciousness</b> and particularly of <b>God</b> has grown substantially in recent years. Public debate has been intense, often heated. <b>Closer To Truth</b>
presents to mass audiences these leading-edge ideas in an approachable,
rational and balanced manner, and introduces the human personalities
behind these ideas. By meeting these change-making characters close-up,
the thinkers behind the thoughts, visiting them in their homes, offices,
labs, gardens, churches and temples, <b>Closer To Truth</b> humanizes riveting ideas and makes them more accessible and more relevant.<br />
<br />
It is the mission of <b>Closer To Truth</b> to become the most publicly prominent venue for heightened understanding and thoughtful discussion of <b>Cosmos, Consciousness </b>and<b> God</b> for broad television audiences.<br />
<br />
<b>Closer To Truth</b> has 117 episodes on <b>Cosmos, Consciousness, God </b>being
broadcast, with more in production Each 30-minute episode features four
to seven of the world’s foremost thinkers. The series as a whole
features 128 (growing to ~200) such authorities, each taped in detailed
conversations (between two and eight hours), in what we believe to be
the most comprehensive and definitive treatment of these topics ever
presented in visual or electronic media. An invaluable record of
today's best thinking, this new edition of <b>Closer To Truth</b>
includes, in addition to the high-definition television series, an
extensive internet site, and resource materials for educators and
life-long learners.<br />
<br />
<b>Closer To Truth</b> is hosted and executive produced by <b>Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn</b>. It is produced by Getzels Gordon Productions. Peter Getzels is <i>Closer To Truth's</i> award-winning producer/director.<br />
<b>Closer To Truth</b> is Robert's life journey to grasp <b>Cosmos, Consciousness, </b>and<b> God</b>,
visiting those who think deeply about existence, meaning and purpose.
He goes to MIT and Harvard in Boston; Cal Tech and UCLA in Los Angeles;
Berkeley and Stanford in San Francisco; Oxford and Cambridge in England;
Princeton, Notre Dame, NYU — and for a gathering of cosmologists, to
the glaciers and hot springs of Iceland.<br />
<br />
Each <b>Closer To Truth</b> episode presents Robert
embarking on a personal exploration in search of answers to a single
Great Question. The audience joins him as he travels to meet
world-renown experts, four to six per episode, each of whom brings a
different viewpoint or perspective. Between experts, Robert summarizes
the previous conversation and sets-up the next one with a bridging
segment, represented with visually interesting footage. Each episode
concludes with Robert providing a summary observation, which may not be a
definitive "answer" but will always draw viewers "closer to truth."<br />
<br />
Each episode is structured as a stand-alone program so that
first-time viewers can understand and enjoy it. But there is logic and
flow to the architecture and order of episodes, and an arc to the series
as a whole, so that many viewers will be drawn from one episode to the
next.<br />
<br />
Robert does not avoid conflict or fear ridicule. Conventional wisdom
and convenient consensus are put to the test in every episode. Robert
challenges current belief and welcomes serious controversy. He will
accept uncertainty but not sloppy thinking. His search is what <b>Closer To Truth</b> is all about: a passionate, detail-rich exploration of <b>Cosmos, Consciousness, </b>and<b> God</b>.<br />
<br />
Never before have <b>Cosmos, Consciousness </b>and<b> God</b> been explored with such breadth, and in such depth, and by such illustrious experts.<br />
<br />
If you were an Alien and had to know where thinking has come on Planet Earth, you would have to watch <b>Closer To Truth</b>.<br />
<br />
Join Robert in these probing, provocative discussions at the frontiers of human understanding.<br />
As Robert says, "I do <span style="text-decoration: underline;">not</span> promise that you will find <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Ultimate</span> Truth. I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">do</span> promise that you will be exhilarated... getting <b><i><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Closer</span> To Truth</i></b>".<br />

I found this video on Daily Motion. It is 46 minutes long, but worth every minute. There are twvideos in this presentation. It is clearly put and easY to grasp the overall theory. Nassim is a Swiss born physicist who has had problems with acceptance of his calculations by Quantum theorists. I see his conclusions based on lots of basic laws of physics and even more common reasoning.<br />
<br />
He proposes that we are all part of one whole that is formed by patterns or waves. He recognizes the Fibinacci curve as the basic pattern of all creation and get this our universe is a Black Hole because if follows the criteria for such in every measurable way. <br />
<br />
Perhaps he is the Einstein of the day.<br />

My predictions are intuitive based on present conditions, the rate of vibratory changes in Universal Mind, and whatever Spirit gives me during a time of Stillness.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here they are:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">1. A strange gelatinous material will appear at various locations on the globe. It is a by-product of the Earth trying to cleanse herself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">2. Gold coins will make the news.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">3. Masses of people are looking for direction and will follow each other over a cliff of misguided loyalty if not led to the light. Spirit is motivating <i>as many </i>people to take the message of Love and Wisdom to all people. It is the Divine plan that All shall come to Him/Her.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">4. Spirit is sending a gift to us all in the form of <i>seemingly insurmountable problems</i>. Each of us is capable of solving these problems -- and every problem solved lifts us higher in vibration (energy or Karma). Vision will be especially sharp for seeing and understanding problems of others. The secret to overcoming is to help with other's problems and let others help you with yours.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">5. There will be countless signs of Spirit's presence in the form of: twins, pairs, repeated numbers, clock faces, clouds, objects that change location, fast growing plants and animals, people who can see Spirit messages in clear water, humming and blaring horn sounds, music, spinning objects, and other perceived synchronicities and coincidences.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">6. Does the new Pope really carry a message of love and caring for the poor and unfortunate? A groundswell of support for the Pope will be thwarted by scandals of the Catholic Church.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">7. More than one person will publicly claim to be the reincarnation of Christ.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">8. New sciences will appear that are concerned with weather, color, sound, temperature, communications, chemical compounds and the paranormal. Conservation of Earth resources will be a vital research effort.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">9. Almost everyone will begin to find healing in Spirit, replacing traditional medical methods. Amazing healings of heretofore fatal maladies will be common. Famous medical facilities will be constructing centers for Spirit Healing. (There is money in it.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">10. A major cooling of interest in <i>social media</i> will be offset by unbelievable new features and innovations.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">11. It will be more difficult to find a place on earth without the intrusion of electric lights, multi decibels of sound, machine vibrations, toxic vapors, mutated genetic material, polution, and radiation. In many places the intrusion of light during nightime will make it impossible to see the evening sky.</span><br />

The 42 Principles of Ma’at, the Goddess who personified the ideals of Truth and Righteousness, were known to all the ancient Egyptians. They have been rephrased here in Biblical Commandment form to make them more intelligible and familiar to moderns. In the original form they were preceded with “I have not” as in “I have not stolen.” The Egyptians believed that when they died, their souls would be judged by these principles. Moses and the Israelites, who were originally Egyptians, would have been familiar with these principles, but after wandering for forty years they seem to have only remembered 8 of them (those highlighted in orange). Moses added three new non-secular commandments; the one about not honoring the other gods, the honoring of their parents, and the one that included their neighbor’s wives and slaves as coveted chattel. The remarkable thing about the principles of Ma’at is not only how much more advanced they are in comparison with the Hebrew Commandments, but how most of them are strikingly relevant to this day.<br />
<br />
Various translations of the Declarations of Ma’at exist and they do not all agree in phrasing, order, or even the total number of principles (since some have multiple statements and some are redundant). Versions are available at the following websites, where readers may compare interpretations.<br />

An
extraordinary theory that has been getting cred lately is one that
suggests our own universe is actually a hologram. Now, a new study
uncovers evidence that lends further credibility to this terrifying
theory.<br />
<br />
Entertainment media has been exploring this concept for quite a while, with movies like <em>The Matrix</em> and <em>Vanilla Sky </em>becoming so prevalent in modern-day culture. The <em>Men in Black </em>trilogy
features short segments — acting as quick, but thought-provoking jokes —
that show some universe (ours or another) as being part of a much
larger one. The end of the first movie, for instance, shows that our
universe is the size of and held within a marble, kept in an alien’s bag
with other universe marbles. If we’re living within a hologram and made
to think it’s just our normal universe, there isn’t much of a way we’d
know if that’s how it was designed. A disturbing thought, so naturally,
some very smart scientists are trying to figure out if we live in the
universe as we know it — or not.<br />
<br />
Back in 1997, the theory of a holographic <a href="http://www.extremetech.com/tag/universe">universe</a>
was first introduced by physicist Juan Maldacena, who theorized that
gravity arises from thin, vibrating strings that exist in nine
dimensions of space and another of time, whereas real life exists in a
universe without gravity. The comparison to the hologram is frequently
made because of the way a hologram is created; it’s a three-dimensional
image coded onto a two-dimensional surface. The theory suggests that the
universe is built in a similar fashion, the higher dimensional part
coded onto a flatter, lower dimensional part. So, on a hologram, only
one part is tangible — the lower dimensional surface onto which the
hologram is coded. The holographic image, though, merely looks
three-dimensional. You can’t, for example, touch it with your fingers.
Now, pretend that’s the structure of the universe.<br />
Yes, it’s wacky.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.extremetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/blackholespin.jpg"><img alt="Black hole spin" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-172847" height="360" src="http://www.extremetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/blackholespin.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
The
theory has been discussed for a while now, and a quick Google search
will yield many results over the past few years covering the topic —
mainly more tiny drops of evidence in a big, mostly empty pool. However,
with each drop, that pool fills up just a little more. Two new drops,
papers published on the ArXiv preprint server, involve black holes,
gravity, and string theory. One paper examines the energy of a black
hole, the position of its event horizon, and its entropy. The other
paper calculates the internal energy of the corresponding lower
dimensional cosmos — the one without gravity. The calculations from both
papers matched, and while it isn’t definitive proof, the scientists
feel it’s compelling evidence.<br />
<br />
Basically, if true, this means that
the universe as we know it may be the result of processes happening on
some other surface or plane.<br />
<br />
Maldacena himself took a look at the
computations, and confirmed that they appear to be correct, but did note
that the two universe models used in the computations do not resemble
our own. However, the computations do prove that a universe could be the
result of processes happening in a lower dimension, and thus our
universe could indeed be formed in this manner. The computations in the
two papers have created a model, and we’d just need to figure out our
universe’s appropriate data to plug in.<br />
<br />
Thankfully, even though
strides have been made, it appears as though scientists will be working
to confirm whether or not the universe is a hologram for some time.
Ideally, they never figure it out, because the question that comes next —
what exactly are <em>we</em>, then — is much more terrifying.<br />

LOUD SOUNDS IN THE SKY ALARMING<br />
<br />
Two weeks ago the subject of loud sounds came up at church. I tried to explain what the sounds are in my understanding and went home. Today I learned on the Internet that loud sounds in the sky and booms are being heard in many places and sometimes with ground shaking. <br />
<br />
I do not have an explanation for this <i>new </i>occurrence, but you should know that this has been happening for perhaps hundreds of years. The ultimate goal of this phenomena is to cleanse and raise vibrations. For a long time the sounds could not be heard by normal people - only people with a gift. Why normal people are hearing them now I cannot say. They have been reported, in Canada, California, Albuquerque, Louisiana, Germany, Russia, and Michigan. In fact, all over the world.<br />
<br />
TV in Orlando recently reported the sounds like explosions, horns, machinery etc. as close as Flagler county, Daytona Beach, and along the eastern shore of Florida - along with some earth shaking. <br />
<br />
Last Feb 10th a meteor 18 meters wide crashed in Russia. Russian scientists report that a group of possibly 20 asteroids is not far behind. In the US 37 states are preparing for an "earthquake" drill set for October 17th. It is the largest drill of its kind ever held. Many predictions by psychics and paranormals predict that as many as 2 billion people could be leaving earth because of an expected Holocaust.<br />
<br />
I have heard these sounds since I was a child. My interpretation is that it sounds like an avalanche or rock slide. Sometimes it crackles and whines. (If you want to hear samples of the sounds go to YouTube and search for strange sounds in the sky.) I have always thought that it was vibratory correction on the level of the astral or spiritual plane. It is a conflict of the positive and negative energies. The plan of spirit is to maintain balance in all levels of vibrations and the stronger the negative is -- the more forceful the positive grows to overcome negativity. This includes love over hate, compassion over evil, growth over decay, justice over slavery, charity over greed ...<br />
<br />
To hear samples of the sounds go to <a href="http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=loud+soungs+in+the+sky+&qpvt=loud+soungs+in+the+sky+&FORM=VDRE" target="_blank">http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=loud+soungs+in+the+sky+&qpvt=loud+soungs+in+the+sky+&FORM=VDRE </a><br />
<br />
Please keep your mind open to the possibilities of fallout from this spiritual activity. Remember "As above, so below." Spirit is winning a war that may reflect in the physical. Every heart that lives with love is helping to counteract evil. The normal human mind tells us to look for earthquakes and tsunamis, perhaps a shift in the tectonic plates. But spirit tells us we are on an upward path to fulfill the promise of God's Love.<br />

Calling all spiritual people that have been feeling unhappy these
days . . . Read this Lightworker information below and clear up your
confusion about what you are experiencing .<br />
<br />
Spiritually-oriented people are experiencing very similar things in
their lives lately. This Lightworker article is written for those of
you who may not yet know WHY your life is transforming right now and why
things appear to be so difficult. Many spiritual people are
“Lightworkers.” Whether you are familiar with this term or not, if you
find yourself fitting the lightworker description below, you are without
a doubt a Lightworker!<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://oracleandtarotgoddess.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/9495.jpg"><img alt="" height="221" src="http://oracleandtarotgoddess.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/9495.jpg?w=428&h=332" title="9495" width="285" /></a><br />

<ul>
<li>Lightworkers don’t feel like they “fit in” with the majority of the
people in the world. Lightworkers feel that that they were different
from others, and misunderstood by most people (sadly, often members of
their own family).</li>
<li>Lightworkers believe they are here for a divine “purpose,” even if
they haven’t found out what it is yet, and this nags at Lightworkers and
generates a chronic feeling of inner urgency and restlessness.</li>
<li>Lightworkers’ childhood was difficult, painful, and/or lonely.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are very compassionate, and they are always going out
of their way to help others. A lightworker’s very nature is that of a
helper – often to the point where Lightworkers have trouble saying “no”
to requests from people.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />

<div id="element_4">
<ul>
<li>Lightworkers are empathic – meaning that Lightworkers can literally
FEEL other people’s emotional states, particularly if they are in pain.</li>
<li>Lightworkers relationships are unbalanced – Lightworkers tend to
attract “wounded” people who need saving and healing, and Lightworkers
give, give, give. (Many Lightworkers get a little better at setting
boundaries in relationships as they get older, simply because they
eventually get tired of being taken advantage of over and over again.)</li>
<li>Lightworkers crave love and acceptance, yet have had a hard time
finding it, and they feel discouraged from many years of relationships that just don’t work out.</li>
<li>Although Lightworkers often feel lonely, they would often rather
spend time alone than hang out with people who don’t understand their
true self. Lightworkers sometimes find themselves “faking it” in social
settings in order to fit in better and not be seen as “the weird one”
in the room.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />

<div id="element_6">
<ul>
<li>Lightworkers value peace and harmony. Lightworkers are not
competitive and often don’t stick up for themselves. Lightworkers
dislike arguing and fighting (it might even make them feel ill).
However, Lightworkers can become very angry when they see any person or
any living thing being treated cruelly or unfairly. (They even cry when
they see trees being cut down.) In particular, violent treatment of
children or animals makes them crazy.</li>
<li>Lightworkers’ careers involve helping people in some way, shape, or
form: medicine/healing, counseling, social work, teaching, helping
animals, helping nature and the environment – anything that contributes
to the well-being of humanity and the planet. (If you are in any kind
of helping profession, you are a Lightworker whether you remember your
true soul origins or not.)</li>
<li>Lightworkers’ careers are also in the spiritual arena: Lightworkers
do psychic readings, read Astrology charts, practice Feng Shui, or
Reiki. Lightworkers are ministers, yoga teachers, doing shamanic work,
and so forth.</li>
<li>Lightworkers’ careers are in creative fields such as art, music,
writing, acting, designing jewelry – anything that makes use of inspired
creativity and imagination. Lightworkers may be naturally gifted in one
or more areas of the creative arts.</li>

<div id="element_7">
<ul>
<li>Even if you are not involved in the above three career categories,
you gravitate towards them as a hobby, or you volunteer for causes you
believe in, and so forth.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are not as materialistic as the general population.
Lightworkers don’t care about status symbols, and fancy expensive stuff –
as long as they have enough money to live decently, they are satisfied.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are very sensitive and cry easily.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are not religious in the traditional sense (even if you
were raised in a very religious household), yet they are deeply
spiritual.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Lightworkers are interested in New Age topics in general, and in
particular, feel drawn to any of the following: Science-fiction; ETs and
UFOs; ancient civilizations such as Atlantis, Lemuria, ancient Egypt,
etc</li>
<li>Lightworkers read books and/or attend lectures on New Age topics or personal-growth topics.</li>
<li>Lightworkers tend to have dreams that are very vivid and interesting.</li>
<li>Lightworkers, as young children, may have seen angels, faeries, the
spirits of departed family members, or other beings of the spirit
realm. (And some of them still have this ability as adults.)</li>
</ul>
<br />

<ul>
<li>Lightworkers may have had other so-called “supernatural” experiences
throughout their lives (received information psychically, seen UFOs,
etc.). Lightworkers are not freaked out by supernatural events as many
people are – in fact, they seem normal and natural to Lightworkers.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are not terrified of death like most people, because
Lightworkers have a spiritual outlook on this subject, and you know that
spirit lives on even after the body dies.</li>
<li>Lightworkers tend to really love music, art, nature and animals.</li>
<li>Lightworkers are drawn to natural foods, and may be vegetarian or vegan.</li>
<li>Lightworkers can be sensitive to loud sounds, strong smells and crowds.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://oracleandtarotgoddess.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/lightworker1.jpg"><img alt="" height="171" src="http://oracleandtarotgoddess.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/lightworker1.jpg?w=450&h=258" title="lightworker1" width="300" /></a><br />
<ul>
<li>Lightworkers suffer from (or are in recovery from) addictions such
as alcohol and overeating. (Even if you do not fit the true definition
of “addict,” you still may have a tendency to abuse certain substances.
This is an attempt to cope with or numb the psychological pain and
depression you may feel at times.)</li>
<li>Lightworkers may have suffered from depression. (If you have sought
psychological counseling, you may have been misdiagnosed or simply not
found any real relief.)</li>
<li>Lightworkers, in general, have found it difficult to live in this
world. This planet is hard for Lightworkers to take, because there is
so much violence, mindlessness, destruction, disregard for nature and
all of earth’s creatures, and so forth. Also, the rampant selfishness,
deceitfulness, aggressiveness and greed in the population is disgusting
to Lightworkers.</li>
<li>All their lives, Lightworkers have yearned to go Home (even if you
don’t consciously remember where Home is), and they may even have
thought about suicide when the pain feels overwhelming, or simply wished
to die. Some Lightworkers feel they don’t belong in this world.
However, Lightworkers do know that they came to this planet to help, and
as much as the weariness and sometimes loneliness of life gets here,
Lightworkers are still here and still helping!)</li>
</ul>
<br />
These are some of the characteristics of Lightworkers that we have
observed. If you find yourself checking “yes” to many of the
characteristics on this Lightworkers list, you are indeed a Lightworker.
(And if this list reminds you of anyone you know, please direct them to
this article). If you fit the Lightworker profile, you have probably
been experiencing certain things in your life lately such as:<br />

<br />
<ul>
<li>A shrinking of your social life. Many of your old friendships have
ended for one reason or another, and you find yourself spending more and
more time alone. If you are married to (or are in a relationship) with a
person who is not spiritual and not a Lightworker, you may find
yourself wanting to end that relationship at this time.</li>
<li>A desire to relocate, perhaps to a place you’ve never even been to or ever thought about before.</li>
<li>Feeling that you’ve lost interest in your old career, and an inner
sense that there is something else you are “meant” to do, but it hasn’t
revealed itself to you yet.</li>
<li>Feelings of being completely fed up, tired of your old life, and wanting massive CHANGE.</li>
<li>Sensing that something big is about to happen, and feeling like you are just waiting, waiting, waiting.</li>
</ul>
Your Fellow Lightworkers,<br />

A hard news story aired on TV last week confirms that Spider DNA has been introduced into Milk Goats DNA to encourage them to give milk that contains spider silk. Spider silk is an amazing chemical that is actually stronger than steel and very useful for hundreds of uses in industry and medicine.<br />
<br />
The silk has to be separated from the milk by a number of purification steps and only a small amount can be harvested - but many times more than collecting from spiders themselves. It seems that if the goats suckle young, the milk is still nourishing and non-toxic. <br />

If this astounds you -- read the list below of conspiracy theories that have been proven true! Comments welcome.<br />

<a href="http://thetruthwins.com/" target="_blank">The Truth</a>.<br />
Are you a conspiracy theorist? If not, perhaps you should be. Yes,
there have certainly been a lot of “conspiracy theories” over the years
that have turned out not to be accurate. However, the truth is that a
large number of very prominent conspiracy theories have turned out to
actually be true. So the next time that you run into some “tin foil hat
wearing lunatics”, you might want to actually listen to what they have
to say. They may actually know some things that you do not. In fact, <a href="http://intellihub.com/2013/07/15/new-studies-conspiracy-theorists-sane-government-dupes-crazy-hostile/" target="_blank" title="one recent study">one recent study</a>
found that “conspiracy theorists” are actually more sane than the
general population. So the next time you are tempted to dismiss someone
as a “conspiracy theorist”, just remember that the one that is crazy
might actually be you. The following are 16 popular conspiracy theories
that turned out to be true…<br />
<br />
<strong>1. “They Put Cancer Viruses Into Our Vaccines”</strong><br />
When I first heard about this I did not believe it. And of course
not all vaccines contain cancer viruses. But tens of millions of
Americans did receive vaccines with cancer viruses in them, and now we
have learned that even the CDC <a href="http://www.wakingtimes.com/2013/07/17/cdc-admits-98-million-americans-received-polio-vaccine-in-an-8-year-span-when-it-was-contaminated-with-cancer-virus/" target="_blank" title="has admitted">has admitted</a> that this is true…<br />
<blockquote>
The CDC has quickly removed a page from their website, which is now <a href="http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:8pUR6KX_Vq8J:www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/updates/archive/polio_and_cancer_factsheet.htm+cdc+polio+cancer+fact+sheet&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca" target="_blank" title="cached here">cached here</a>,
admitting that more than 98 million Americans received one or more
doses of polio vaccine within an 8-year span when a proportion of the
vaccine was contaminated with a cancer causing polyomavirus called SV40.
It has been estimated that 10-30 million Americans could have received
an SV40 contaminated dose of the vaccine.<br />
SV40 is an abbreviation for Simian vacuolating virus 40 or <em>Simian virus 40</em>, a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyomavirus" target="_blank" title="Polyomavirus">polyomavirus</a> that
is found in both monkeys and humans. Like other polyomaviruses, SV40 is
a DNA virus that has been found to cause tumors and cancer.</blockquote>
<strong>2. “ATM Machines Will Someday Use Facial Recognition Technology”</strong><br />
According to the <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2365166/Next-generation-cash-machines-set-replace-bank-cards-facial-recognition.html?printingPage=true" target="_blank" title="Daily Mail">Daily Mail</a>, a new generation of ATM machines is being developed that will use cutting edge facial recognition technology…<br />
<blockquote>
Cumbersome and slow cash machines with clunky buttons and
tiny hard-to-see screens could soon be a thing of the past thanks to a
range of next-generation ATMs.<br />
Ohio-based security firm Diebold has created a touchscreen cash
machine that works like a tablet computer, uses facial recognition and
QR codes to identify and authenticate users, and has built-in safety
cameras.</blockquote>
<strong>3. “The U.S. Government And Monsanto Are Teaming Up Against Opponents Of Genetically-Modified Food”</strong><br />
The establishment does not like those that are trying to stand in the
way of genetically-modified food. The following is from a recent <a href="http://www.activistpost.com/2013/07/us-military-monsanto-targeting-gmo.html" target="_blank" title="Activist Post article">Activist Post article</a>…<br />
<blockquote>
A shocking new investigative report from the largest
daily newspaper in Germany alleges that Monsanto, the US Military and
the US government have colluded to track and disrupt both anti-GMO
activists and independent scientists who study the adverse effects of
genetically modified food.<br />
As revealed yesterday by <a href="http://sustainablepulse.com/2013/07/13/us-military-tracks-gmo-campaigners-and-independent-scientists-english-excluusive/#.UeLBHdKmiCQ" target="_blank" title="Sustainable Pulse">Sustainable Pulse</a>, on July 13th the German newspaper <i>Süddeutsche Zeitung</i>
detailed information on how the US Government “advances the interests
of their corporations,” focusing on Monsanto as a prime example.<br />
The report titled, “<a href="http://sustainablepulse.com/2013/07/13/the-sinister-monsanto-group-agent-orange-to-genetically-modified-corn/#.UeMjl9LVB8F" target="_blank" title="The Sinister Monsanto Group: ‘Agent Orange’ to Genetically Modified Corn">The Sinister Monsanto Group: ‘Agent Orange’ to Genetically Modified Corn</a>,”
described a ‘new fangled cyber war’ being waged against both
eco-activists and independent scientists by supporters and former
employees of Monsanto, who are described as “operationally powerful
assistants” and who have taken up sometimes high-ranking posts in the US
administration, regulatory authorities, and some of whom have
connections deep within the military industrial establishment, including
the CIA.</blockquote>
<strong>4. “Someday Scientists Will Be Using Millions Of Genetically-Modified Animals In Scientific Experiments”</strong><br />
Did you know that <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/revealed-ordinary-laboratory-animals-are-outnumbered-by-gm-counterparts-for-first-time-8711133.html" target="_blank" title="literally millions">literally millions</a> of genetically-modified animals are being experimented on in labs all over the globe?…<br />
<blockquote>
The number of genetically modified (GM) animals used in
scientific research in Britain has exceeded the number of ordinary
laboratory animals for the first time, according to official statistics
that show a 9 per cent overall increase in the use of experimental
animals last year.<br />
Some 4,033,310 animals were used in scientific experiments started in
2012, an increase of 322,689, or 9 per cent over the previous year.
There were 1.91 million scientific “procedures” used with GM animals in
2012 compared to 1.68.m procedures on normal animals.</blockquote>
<strong>5. “Scientists All Over The World Are Creating Extremely Bizarre Human-Animal Hybrids”</strong><br />
Should scientists be creating beings that are part human and part
animal? Well, it is happening all over the planet. Just check out some
of the things that <a href="http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/superman/2013/05/human_animal_hybrids_chimeras_with_mice_pigs_and_goats.html" target="_blank" title="a recent Slate article">a recent Slate article</a> says is happening in labs around the world…<br />

<strong>6. “Obama Is Making Government Employees Spy On One Another”</strong><br />
Yes, this is actually happening. <a href="http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/10-ways-that-the-iron-grip-of-the-big-brother-prison-grid-is-tightening-on-all-of-our-lives" target="_blank" title="In a previous article">In a previous article</a>, I described how Obama is forcing government workers <a href="http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/07/09/196211/linchpin-for-obamas-plan-to-predict.html#.UecKsm0pgw6" target="_blank" title="to spy on one another?">to spy on the “lifestyles, attitudes and behaviors”</a> of their fellow employees…<br />
<blockquote>
Federal employees and contractors are asked to pay
particular attention to the lifestyles, attitudes and behaviors – like
financial troubles, odd working hours or unexplained travel – of
co-workers as a way to predict whether they might do “harm to the United
States.” Managers of special insider threat offices will have “regular,
timely, and, if possible, electronic, access” to employees’ personnel,
payroll, disciplinary and “personal contact” files, as well as records
of their use of classified and unclassified computer networks, polygraph
results, travel reports and financial disclosure forms.</blockquote>
<strong>7. “Pro Wrestling Is Fake”</strong><br />
We have all kind of known this for a long time, right? Well, now
someone is actually leaking the results of pro wrestling matches on the
Internet <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10187246/WWE-embarrassed-as-wrestling-match-outcomes-leaked-online.html" target="_blank" title="before they happen">before they happen</a>…<br />
<blockquote>
A fan has provoked a furor in the world of professional
wrestling after leaking the outcomes of 38 WWE matches ahead of the
pay-per-view bouts.<br />
The mystery fan, who identifies himself online as Dolphins1925,
claims he has obtained the information from a source at Worldwide
Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), and is revealing the results to highlight
the organisation’s failure to keep its storylines confidential.<br />
Dolphins1925 started posting the results on Reddit’s pro-wrestling
forum after another fan launched a “prediction series”, asking users for
their picks ahead of the matches. He has since maintained a perfect
record, even leaking the results of contests involving wrestling
superstars such as John Cena and The Undertaker.</blockquote>
<strong>8. “Someday Texas Is Going To Run Out Of Water”</strong><br />
Texas will always have plenty of water, right?<br />
<br />
Wrong.<br />
<br />
According to <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/100893301" target="_blank" title="CNBC">CNBC</a>, the water crisis in some areas of Texas is rapidly reaching a breaking point…<br />
<blockquote>
Three straight years of blistering drought have strained
Texas’ water resources. Some cities like Midland are already steeply
raising their water prices. But it’s not just residents of the Lone Star
State feeling parched. Texas-based companies are scrambling to reduce
their water usage and enact long-term water management plans as a
critical business concern.<br />
“As the drought continues, industry’s eyes are opening,” said Jordan
Furnans, senior engineer at INTERA, a Texas-based geosciences and
engineering firm. Those eyes are opening to discover that more dry years
are coming, he said.<br />
There’s a desperate need for water to fuel industrial, chemical and
energy operations in some parts of Texas. “If plants shut down, they’re
losing millions of dollars per day,” Furnans said.</blockquote>
<strong>9. “The IRS Is Specifically Targeting Conservatives”</strong><br />
Only a small percentage of Americans would have believed this
particular “conspiracy theory” last year. But now it is all over the
news. In fact, we have just learned that applications for tax-exempt
status from Tea Party groups were ordered to be sent to <a href="http://www.trunews.com/irs-employees-were-ordered-to-send-tea-party-cases-to-irss-only-obama-political-appointee/" target="_blank" title="the only Obama political appointee at the IRS">the only Obama political appointee at the IRS</a>…<br />
<blockquote>
IRS employees were ordered by their superiors–including
Lois Lerner who pleaded the 5th Amendment against self-incrimination
rather than testify in Congress–to send certain Tea Party tax-exemption
applications to the office of the IRS’s Chief Counsel, which was headed
by William Wilkins, who at that time was the only Obama political
appointee at the IRS, according to a letter released today by the House
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.<br />
“As a part of this ongoing investigation, the Committees have learned
that the IRS Chief Counsel’s office in Washington, D.C. has been
closely involved in some of the applications,” reads a letter released
today by the House committees on Oversight and Government and Ways and
Means. “Its involvement and demands for information about political
activity during the 2010 election cycle appear to have caused systematic
delays in the processing of Tea Party applications.”</blockquote>
<strong>10. “Fluoride Is Harmful For Your Teeth”</strong><br />
This is a conspiracy theory that was denied for a very long time. But now even <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2011/HEALTH/01/07/fluoride.recommendations/?hpt=T2" target="_blank" title="In a recent article on CNN">CNN</a> is admitting the truth…<br />
<blockquote>
The Department of Health and Human Services and
Environmental Protection Agency are proposing the change because of an
increase in fluorosis — a condition that causes spotting and streaking
on children’s teeth.</blockquote>
<strong>11. “Using A Cell Phone Can Cause Cancer”</strong><br />
Can you get cancer from using a cell phone? Well, an increasing number of studies indicate <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/05/14/cell.phones.brain.tumor/index.html" target="_blank" title="from one recent CNN article">that this is actually true</a>…<br />
<blockquote>
At the highest exposure levels — using a mobile phone
half an hour a day over a 10-year period — the study found a 40 percent
increased risk of glioma brain tumors.</blockquote>
<strong>12. “Prescription Drugs Kill Large Numbers Of Americans”</strong><br />
Every single year, hundreds of thousands of Americans are killed by
prescription drugs. The following is a brief excerpt from a Vanity Fair
article entitled “<a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2011/01/deadly-medicine-201101" target="_blank" title="Deadly Medicine">Deadly Medicine</a>“…<br />
<blockquote>
Prescription drugs kill some 200,000 Americans every
year. Will that number go up, now that most clinical trials are
conducted overseas—on sick Russians, homeless Poles, and slum-dwelling
Chinese—in places where regulation is virtually nonexistent, the F.D.A.
doesn’t reach, and “mistakes” can end up in pauper’s graves?</blockquote>
<strong>13. “The Elite Want To Dramatically Reduce The Global Population”</strong><br />
Yes, many among the global elite really do want to substantially
reduce the population of the planet. The following quotes are from <a href="http://thetruthwins.com/archives/30-population-control-quotes-that-show-that-the-elite-truly-believe-that-humans-are-a-plague-upon-the-earth" title="one of my previous articles">one of my previous articles</a>…<br />

<strong>14. “Innocent People Are Murdered, Skinned And Dismembered During Satanic Rituals”</strong><br />
Satanists really do exist, and sometimes they do really, really awful things. The following is <a href="http://ktla.com/2013/07/17/satan-worshiper-gets-life-in-prison-for-killing-skinning-mom/#axzz2ZOZ7WKoY" target="_blank" title="one recent example">one recent example</a>…<br />
<blockquote>
Moises Meraz-Espinoza walked into the Huntington Park
Police Department two years ago to report a crime: He had killed his
mother.<br />
Officers went to the Maywood apartment that the then-18-year-old
factory worker shared with his mother, Amelia Espinoza, 42, and found a
gruesome scene. A trail of blood led to the bathroom, where plastic
covered the walls and floor. There, they found an electrical circular
saw with pieces of bone, blood and flesh stuck to the blade. Nearby, in a
freezer, police found skin and muscles stored in plastic bags. The
woman’s skull, with all her teeth plucked out, her eyes removed and two
upside-down crosses carved into the bone, was stashed in a backpack.<br />
Prosecutors say that Meraz-Espinoza strangled his mother and then
skinned, filleted and dismembered her body as part of a satanic ritual.</blockquote>
<strong>15. “The NSA Is Spying On Our Phone Calls, Internet Searches And Financial Transactions”</strong><br />
Thanks to Edward Snowden, we have learned much more about how the NSA
spies on all of us. And just this week it has come out that the NSA
has no problem snooping on you if you are <a href="http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/07/nsa-admits-it-analyzes-more-peoples-data-previously-revealed/67287/" target="_blank" title="a friend of a friend of a friend">a friend of a friend of a friend</a> of someone that might be a potential terrorist…<br />
<blockquote>
Chris Inglis, the agency’s deputy director, was one of
several government representatives—including from the FBI and the office
of the Director of National Intelligence—testifying before the House
Judiciary Committee this morning. Most of the testimony largely echoed <a href="http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/06/keith-alexander-nsa-hearing-house-intelligence-committee/66346/" target="_blank" title="previous testimony">previous testimony</a>
by the agencies on the topic of the government’s surveillance,
including a retread of the same offered examples for how the Patriot Act
and Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act had stopped terror events.<br />
But Inglis’ statement was new. Analysts look “two or three hops” from
terror suspects when evaluating terror activity, Inglis
revealed. Previously, the limit of how surveillance was extended <a href="http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/06/nsa-privacy-guide/66019/" target="_blank" title="had been described">had been described</a>
as two hops. This meant that if the NSA were following a phone metadata
or web trail from a terror suspect, it could also look at the calls
from the people that suspect has spoken with—one hop. And then, the
calls that <em>second</em> person had also spoken with—two hops. Terror suspect to person two to person three. Two hops. And now: A third hop.</blockquote>
<strong>16. “The Federal Reserve Is A Perpetual Debt Machine That Is Designed To Create Inflation”</strong><br />
The Federal Reserve is a private banking cartel that was created by
the bankers and that serves the interest of the bankers. It was
designed to perpetually increase the U.S. national debt and to
perpetually create inflation. Unfortunately, it has done a great job on
both counts. Since the Federal Reserve was created back in 1913, the
U.S. national debt has gotten <a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/10-things-that-every-american-should-know-about-the-federal-reserve" target="_blank" title="more than 5000 times larger">more than 5000 times larger</a>, and the value of the U.S. dollar has fallen <a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/10-things-that-every-american-should-know-about-the-federal-reserve" target="_blank" title="by more than 96 percent">by more than 96 percent</a>.<br />

The Sator Square, one of the earliest known palindromes is a square that
reads the same forwards, backwards, upwards and downwards, dating back
as far back as 2000 years ago in the ruins of Pompeii. It's meaning has
been an enigma, although scholars agree on the individual words.
According to John T. Cullen, this meme could mean `God holds the plough,
but you turn the furrows'.<br />

<span class="text11">A
time comes in your life when you finally get…when, in the midst of all
your fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the
voice inside your head cries out…ENOUGH! Enough fighting and crying and
blaming and struggling to hold on. Then, like a child quieting down
after a tantrum, you blink back your tears and begin to look at the
world through new eyes.<br />
<br />
This is your awakening.<br />
<br />
You realize it’s time to stop hoping and waiting for something
to change, or for happiness, safety and security to magically appear
over the next horizon.<br />
<br />
You realize that in the real world there aren’t always fairy
tale endings, and that any guarantee of “happily ever after” must begin
with you…and in the process a sense of serenity is born of acceptance.<br />
<br />
You awaken to the fact that you are not perfect and that not
everyone will always love, appreciate or approve of who or what you
are…and that’s OK. They are entitled to their own views and opinions.<br />
<br />
You learn the importance of loving and championing yourself…and
in the process a sense of new found confidence is born of self-approval.<br />
<br />
Your stop complaining and blaming other people for the things
they did to you – or didn’t do for you – and you learn that the only
thing you can really count on is the unexpected.<br />
<br />
You learn that people don’t always say what they mean or mean
what they say and that not everyone will always be there for you and
everything isn’t always about you.<br />
<br />
So, you learn to stand on your own and to take care of
yourself…and in the process a sense of safety and security is born of
self-reliance.<br />
<br />
You stop judging and pointing fingers and you begin to accept
people as they are and to overlook their shortcomings and human
frailties…and in the process a sense of peace and contentment is born of
forgiveness.<br />
<br />
You learn to open up to new worlds and different points of view.
You begin reassessing and redefining who you are and what you really
stand for.<br />
<br />
You learn the difference between wanting and needing and you
begin to discard the doctrines and values you’ve outgrown, or should
never have bought into to begin with.<br />
<br />
You learn that there is power and glory in creating and
contributing and you stop maneuvering through life merely as a
“consumer” looking for you next fix.<br />
<br />
You learn that principles such as honesty and integrity are not
the outdated ideals of a bygone era, but the mortar that holds together
the foundation upon which you must build a life.<br />
<br />
You learn that you don’t know everything, it’s not you job to
save the world and that you can’t teach a pig to sing. You learn the
only cross to bear is the one you choose to carry and that martyrs get
burned at the stake.<br />
<br />
Then you learn about love. You learn to look at relationships as
they really are and not as you would have them be. You learn that alone
does not mean lonely.<br />
<br />
You stop trying to control people, situations and outcomes. You
learn to distinguish between guilt and responsibility and the importance
of setting boundaries and learning to say NO.<br />
<br />
You also stop working so hard at putting your feelings aside, smoothing things over and ignoring your needs.<br />
<br />
You learn that your body really is your temple. You begin to
care for it and treat it with respect. You begin to eat a balanced diet,
drinking more water, and take more time to exercise.<br />
<br />
You learn that being tired fuels doubt, fear, and uncertainty
and so you take more time to rest. And, just food fuels the body,
laughter fuels our soul. So you take more time to laugh and to play.<br />
<br />
You learn that, for the most part, you get in life what you
deserve, and that much of life truly is a self-fulfilling prophecy.<br />
<br />
You learn that anything worth achieving is worth working for and
that wishing for something to happen is different than working toward
making it happen.<br />
<br />
More importantly, you learn that in order to achieve success you
need direction, discipline and perseverance. You learn that no one can
do it all alone, and that it’s OK to risk asking for help.<br />
<br />
You learn the only thing you must truly fear is fear itself. You
learn to step right into and through your fears because you know that
whatever happens you can handle it and to give in to fear is to give
away the right to live life on your own terms.<br />
<br />
You learn to fight for your life and not to squander it living under a cloud of impending doom.<br />
<br />
You learn that life isn’t always fair, you don’t always get what
you think you deserve and that sometimes bad things happen to
unsuspecting, good people…and you lean not to always take it personally.<br />
<br />
You learn that nobody’s punishing you and everything isn’t
always somebody’s fault. It’s just life happening. You learn to admit
when you are wrong and to build bridges instead of walls.<br />
<br />
You lean that negative feelings such as anger, envy and
resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate the
life out of you and poison the universe that surrounds you.<br />
<br />
You learn to be thankful and to take comfort in many of the
simple things we take for granted, things that millions of people upon
the earth can only dream about: a full refrigerator, clean running
water, a soft warm bed, a long hot shower.<br />
<br />
Then, you begin to take responsibility for yourself by yourself
and you make yourself a promise to never betray yourself and to never,
ever settle for less than you heart’s desire.<br />
<br />
You make it a point to keep smiling, to keep trusting, and to stay open to every wonderful possibility.<br />
<br />
You hang a wind chime outside your window so you can listen to the wind.<br />
<br />
Finally, with courage in your heart, you take a stand, you take a
deep breath, and you begin to design the life you want to live as best
as you can.</span></span><br />
