Beautiful message from #Occupy


Occupy Wall Street: No Demand is Big Enough


Occupy Wall Street has been criticized for its lack of clear demands, but how do we issue demands, when what we really want is nothing less than the more beautiful world our hearts tell us is possible? No demand is big enough. We could make lists of demands for new public policies: tax the wealthy, raise the minimum wage, protect the environment, end the wars, regulate the banks. While we know these are positive steps, they aren't quite what motivated people to occupy Wall Street. What needs attention is something deeper: the power structures, ideologies, and institutions that prevented these steps from being taken years ago; indeed, that made these steps even necessary. Our leaders are beholden to impersonal forces, such as that of money, that compel them to do what no sane human being would choose. Disconnected from the actual effects of their policies, they live in a world of insincerity and pretense. It is time to bring a countervailing force to bear, and not just a force but a call. Our message is, "Stop pretending. You know what to do. Start doing it." Occupy Wall Street is about exposing the truth. We can trust its power. When a policeman pepper sprays helpless women, we don't beat him up and scare him into not doing it again; we show the world. Much worse than pepper spray is being perpetrated on our planet in service of money.Let us allow nothing happening on earth to be hidden.
...............
No one deserves to live in a world built upon the degradation of human beings, forests, waters, and the rest of our living planet. Speaking to our brethren on Wall Street, no one deserves to spend their lives playing with numbers while the world burns. Ultimately, we are protesting not only on behalf of the 99% left behind, but on behalf of the 1% as well. We have no enemies. We want everyone to wake up to the beauty of what we can create
.................
Occupy Wall Street should not be content with half-measures, even as it encourages and applauds the tiny hundredth-measures that might come first. It should not let such concessions sap the strength of the movement or seduce it into neglecting to foster its organizational network. Occupy Wall Street is the first manifestation in a long time of "people power" in America. For too long, democracy has, for most people, meant meaningless choices in a box. The Wall Street occupation is stepping out of the box.
............
The truth is dwindling rain forests, spreading deserts, mass tree die-offs on every continent; looted pensions, groaning burdens of student debt, people working two or three dead end jobs; children eating dirt in Haiti, elders choosing between food and medicine... the list is endless, and we will make it no longer possible to hold it in disconnection from the money system. That is why we converge on Wall Street, and anywhere that finance holds sway. You have lulled us into complacency for long enough with illusions and false hopes. We the people are awakening and we will not go back to sleep.

Only those who realize that there is something in man which is superior to the brute nature in him and that the latter always yields to it, can effectively be Satyagrahis. This force is to violence, and, therefore, to all tyranny, all injustice, what light is to darkness. In politics, its use is based upon the immutable maxim, that government of the people is possible only so long as they consent either consciously or unconsciously to be governed.

—M.K Gandhi

Please be careful of channeled information.

The darkness is leaving Earth, in the form of the Satanic, which is usually obvious. Far more subtle are the tricks of the Luciferic, which tricks others into dangerous actions. There however is somewhat of a code involved, so if you see any sort of warning involved in a book or writing, be wary or just leave it alone, even if (or most especially if) it is couched by or hidden within humor.

Your consent is what is required so be skillful. If your intuition warns you in any way, listen to it. There is more trouble out there in spiritual writings than you might imagine, with channeling being possibly the most dangerous. There is also the danger of pointing it out and having it become an attraction, so I will only speak broadly and always request you to use your heart, to use your intuition, to ask guidance and to pay attention to any hits you get warning you about something, no matter how small. It is guidance. Keep your ego out of it, keep you ego from being involved. If you find that, beware. Stick with your heart, work on your own happiness, or better, work for the happiness of others. You are guided, you are your own best navigator, don't rely too deeply upon writings and exotic beings who might not be legit. Fear can be used to create dependence so stick to your joyous places.

Peace!

Global Warming will help bring us together. (+ more)

Warming globally is the root cause of the increasing amplitude of the pendulum swings of the weather we already recognize. They will continue to increase in opposing severity as the heat whips things towards a chaotic/turbulent state.

The chaotic/turbulent state can be avoided through everyone getting together and admitting that there IS a problem, it is NOW, WHAT will we do to decrease it? This is currently occuring, is part of my predictions for 2011, is part of what must happen to actually cause us to come together to solve our problems. The general empetus to unifying in the face of trouble, already seen regarding the beautiful #Occupy movement, will increase globally in science and technology as we discuss what is and what must be done.

The problem-solving mindset thankfully applies/will apply to the other problems we face, and hopefully overpopulation will be the next main focus.

All this while, the energy continues to increase into the positive. We are doing personal, local, national, international, Global cleansing, and beneath it all, finding ourselves and that others are just like us and that we are all beautiful and deserving. So, systems incompatable are being obsoleted before our very eyes. The Trend is very visible with several big banks attempting to woo customers into staying (in the face of the November 5th Bank Transfer Day, get thee to a credit union or small local bank), reneging on newly announced fees, with growing outrage over police brutality and such, sloughing off that which no longer fits. It's not so much an increase in violence but a public self-examination of what we want and do not want, and a measure of our increasing sensitvity and clarity, and of the deeper darkness leaving us, of our rejecting it.

I also note that I have changed my diet to far, far less red meat or meat of any sort when possible. Depending upon what your body tells you, and you'll know better and better, consider eating lighter foods, and even those which are literally closer to Light. Yogananda mentioned that nuts and berries are very close to sunlight, plants and vegetables as well. Eating animals which eat plants and berries etc. is a step away from light. Eating those who feed upon those who eat plants and berries is yet another step away from light. It is possible for some saints to subsist directly upon God's infinite Light but that's not for everyone at this time. Know your body's calls for food; some heavy items may be required for balance. You'll know, and don't drastically change your diet because you read it here, trust your body and if you have any questions, ask a doctor first. Don't ignore clear suffering; get what you need. Your body is intelligent. Thank it and listen to its needs (be wary of its wants, that's just the senses and ego demanding stimulation, which is the ceaseless monkey cage referred to in Eastern literature). I'm a sweet tooth, I don't KNOW if I need those chocolates or not ;)

Back on topic. Remember what this blog and others recommend: Work to stay in a positive place regardless of that which churns about you. I have to work on this as well and writingn this blog is part of my practice. If you are hit with emotional swings, stay calm, breathe, take epsom salts baths if appropriate, stay around flower essences and precious oils per your taste. Put on your favorite comedy, go be silly with some friends. Work this muscle, it will serve you well and it is a habit worth developing. Joy is your birthright and it is possible even during trouble. We will all begin to work to support each other through difficulty of all types, which is how it is supposed to be, will be, and should always be.

Blessings!

My 2011 predictions were perhaps too low-key!

Starting the year with a lot of energies...we are being pushed/led to higher ideals and the far more pleasant manner of living they cause, disconnected from the past...note that some spiritual texts mainly describe how to live; this becomes more of a concern due to our Koyaanisqatsi and growing realization that we must go another way. The weather is revealing itself as an increasing hazard, one which must be solved. There will be growing awareness of the problems we face, such as this, and empetus to observation/organization/solution. Some new ideas will show up thanks to the presence of the Higher Dimensions and their associated genius. "Why didn't anyone ever think of that before, it's so obvious!"

But all in all, more proof of higher vibrations, the desire to be in them and to stay in them, of the desire and need to move into them as the standard. Fighting from those who cannot change, will not change, I don't wanna, you can't make me... Deeper insight into the malfeasance of government and government-related actions and agencies. Some shocking. PC said that Obama wouldn't go after BushCo directly, and IMO has likely prevented some harrowing info from coming to light too early (pun intended). All things in their time. Doesn't the military/industrial complex take about half of the governments spending? That sort of thing won't disappear overnight, but will diffuse and slowly break apart in the increasingly positive energies.

There will be more people realizing that there IS hope, that something better can be created and best of all, =maintained=. Which makes very important solving the problems in its way. Increasing love for the Great Mother Earth and voices raised toward caring for her more completely. Initiatives may begin regarding neighborhood care/upkeep, and co-op farming, which are things which should increase significantly, if you consider them at all. Food prices are becoming ridiculous, and there are increasing shortages...grow your own. Start another generation of Victory Gardens.

"Victory gardens, also called war gardens or food gardens for defense, were vegetable, fruit and herb gardens planted at private residences and public parks in United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Germany<1> during World War I and World War II to reduce the pressure on the public food supply brought on by the war effort. In addition to indirectly aiding the war effort these gardens were also considered a civil "morale booster" — in that gardeners could feel empowered by their contribution of labor and rewarded by the produce grown. This made victory gardens become a part of daily life on the home front."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victory_garde...

This because of need as well as the increase of "good ideas". In beginning to work in a more communal manner, we become included and empowered, and satisfied as to a better way of living that we are making our own. Thus America begins some level of spiritual enrichment, as predicted by the Maharishi and Yogananda. This will be important especially if the cost of oil continues to rise. Transportation costs equal higher goods costs, and food is key. Those hanging tomato plant growers as seen on television are looking more and more interesting

I'm not talking instant revolutions here, but the continued birthing of positive trends amidst the absolute of increasing positive energy. Trend-watching is a good way to gain some level of insight. Those who doubt the "2012" energy thing may gain a greater belief, and hopefully some happiness regarding it, as it's good news for those who want something positive (or at minimum, the groundwork for something positive to be created). It's easier and easier to make positive actions "stick", to take hold and to gain empetus. Forward-driving energy is the important thing, combined with positive intent.

I've got to work upon this sort of thing; I don't care for the ephemeral much at all either. However, too much information can cause a lack of work if it is believed that a particular direction is guaranteed. The 2010 election should hopefully make it quite clear that if you want something, you're going to have to get out and make it happen. Input begins to equal output.

What is the world you wish to create? So begin. It is become easier and easier to do so.



Mayor Bloomberg: Your struggle against #OWS is creating unnecessary PAIN.

Please stop it. Allow this movement to grow and reach its apogee unimpeded. It will do so with or without you. Working against it merely creates unpleasant struggle and pain for everyone. Cease immediately. There is too much pain and struggle in the world and #Occupy is its peaceful solution. Sit back and watch something beautiful happen. Thank you very much.

#OccupyWallStreet NYC are victorious!

They have selected for their official color, a blend of those colors symbolic of the USA. The result?

Pretty much Indigo. Is this a surprise for anyone familiar with Indigo humans?

Although we face some real problems, this is how we will face them and move forward. It is time, it is a thing of beauty. Bravo to all those who got out and DID SOMETHING to change the world for the better!

Infinite Blessings...

#OccupyWallStreet can use your loving kindness.

Naomi Klein just called it the most important thing in the world right now and it is true. It is the US spearhead of world-wide change to higher states and it is working just fine.

It can benefit from your loving thoughts and beliefs toward it. Even one person looking upon it with kindness is a wonderful assist. Please help build the future with love. I hope that you join me in excitement!

Blessings...

Another bit on the cleansing process

This is not only about recognizing and releasing the things we shouldn't be doing, but is also about beginning to do the things you need to do for your integrity and are not. These can be more painful but are just as important. If you have painful relationships/dynamics you may have intimacy issues (most Americans are vulnerable to intimacy issues; it's one reason why we overeat and drug ourselves on television etc., so we don't have to listen to the internal pangs).

-Childhood

If you did not receive sufficient attention as a child from either or both parents, or worse, were rejected and abused, it is time to acknowledge that you feel hurt and why.

"I'm hurt because they didn't pay attention to me."
"I'm hurt because because I never felt loved by _______."
"I'm hurt because they abused me, broke my integrity, laughed at my powerlessness, when all I wanted was for them to love me."

"I'm hurt because I couldn't change the situation. I'm mad at myself because I wasn't powerful/smart/etc. enough to change the situation."

The thing is, to be a child is to be powerless, to not be able to adequately influence your situation and surroundings enough to gain love and to stop abuse. Your intimacy was denied, it was damaged, it was disrespected, it was ignored. You hurt. Say to yourself that you hurt because your intimacy was ______,
whatever applies.

Self-blame comes into play due to the young ego, which believes it has all power and rails or withdraws against trouble. If you blame yourself for anything that happened to you, tell that to yourself. Apologize to yourself. It wasn't your fault. You were just there. You are surrounded by loving energy and beings; ask for them to help you with grace and ease.

These items result in a loss of security, self-esteem, ambition, etc. The ego screams "I should've/would've/should've!!!! Real men/women _______________. Real men and women don't let __________ happen to them." Etc.! It never ends. It is the monkey cage spoken of in Eastern meditation literature. You are now stilling the monkey cage...

-Adulthood

When hitting puberty, significant, deep emotional responses (lack of security, self-esteem, etc.) can eventually become blended with the sex drive, and sex replaces intimacy. True intimacy is to be very happy in anothers' presence, looking into each others' eyes, not having to say a word. True intimacy is wanting to learn and learning what makes your partner happy and doing it lovingly, and not for any hope of return on investment but to quietly know they are happy. Their happiness becomes your happy partial responsibility. It's also knowing how to receive as well as to give. In intimacy, it flows naturally. Two persons helix...are able to communicate through ego drama and demands, recognizing them and laughing. They are able to overcome ego demands for isolation and lashing out, when injured. Thich naht hanh, in "True Love", discusses the sword which cuts the Gordian knot during relationship trouble. To go to the loved one and say "Beloved, I see you are suffering. Tell me, what can I do to help you?" And as well, "Beloved, I am suffering. Please help me!" This is humility. It overcomes the following ego issues:

Lack of self-esteem drives one to set aside their own integrity in hopes of being valued (which only produces a momentary sensation, which must constantly be upped. Others get tired of feeding such a "black hole" and leave, resulting in even worse self-esteem.). If you are suffering from painful relationships you may have to admit that you need your own self-esteem, that it cannot come from others. This is something you may have to begin doing for yourself, whilst stopping expecting it from others. (Self-esteem is built through doing esteemable acts, from forgiving yourself for having suffered and for having ever been weak and vulnerable, and again, from doing esteemable acts. Get thee down to the soup kitchen and contribute your time...go to an orphanage or old folks' home and tell stories, spend time with the invalid, etc.)

Lack of security can result in the same sorts of self-demeaning, self-destructive behaviour. The cure is to again, help others be secure. You get what you give. Forgive yourself for not being powerful enough to control your security, because perhaps no human can be fully secure in the material realm, the realm of constant change. You can find security in a group, if you do not lean upon them, such as a hobby group, recovery group, etc. You may wish to ask your Guides to help you in this but always, with grace and ease. Again, you may have to recognize and acknowledge a personal lack of security (especially about loss; the ego is afraid of losing what it has and of not getting what it wants). You can tell your Guides, tell God, tell your favorite higher power that you are afraid of these things, and request help. Just admitting it is a big step in the right direction.

Ask them to take your fear, to build you where you are weak. You might encounter situations designed to highlight a particular knot you must either stop or be willing to begin. Ask for ease and grace in this time, in all your growth and cleansing. Admit if you are weak. Admit if you are frightened.

If you are not taking care of yourself, hoping others will do so, you need to recognize it, admit it, and be willing to begin to do so. You will be assisted. If you are harming others, you will hopefully wish to ask yourself why and be truthful to yourself about the hurts and resentments driving you. If you are resentful, ask yourself what is behind it. Is your security threatened by something? Is your self-esteem injured, feeling less than or countering that with pretending to be more than? Just be willing to admit it, which starts the release process. It becomes easier and more comfortable as you repeat it. And we are taught that we can do it all alone, by and for ourselves. You may have experiences countering this "wisdom", and can ask your Angels and Guides for help with things you CANNOT do by yourself. This is the positive hierarchy. If you need help and ask humbly and get out of the way, and it is appropriate, you will receive some measure of help, if not always exactly what you WANT (ego), what you NEED.

If you feel unloved, remember why, then do something loving for another, anonymously if you can.

If you feel hurt, comfort someone who is also in pain.

Yes, this is building to the St. Francis prayer:

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. 

Where there is hatred, let me sow love. 
Where there is injury, pardon. 
Where there is doubt, faith. 
Where there is despair, hope. 
Where there is darkness, light. 
Where there is sadness, joy. 

O Divine Master, 

grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; 
to be understood, as to understand; 
to be loved, as to love. 
For it is in giving that we receive. 
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, 
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. 

Amen.

For humility is the answer to ego suffering. Service is the answer to self-obsession. You will find examples of this in all great spiritual paths. Seek them there if you wish!


Blessed Be.


Another sign of the shift to positive energy will be

that higher principles and standards just feel right, and are ever-more desirable. This is the 4th and 5th vibratory dimension energy coming into higher presence in the world, and equality, freedom, peace, democracy, support, love, courage, hope, and other higher principles will feel more and more natural, no longer theories and dreams, but real, sensed, ways of living. Mass rejection of old tactics of brutality, conniving, greed, gluttony, and selfishness will become more and more visible. These things are already visible today and will only grow. The old negative energy may push and shove and perhaps even do something deplorable (or two), but it is the death cry of an obsolete way of life. It is natural for them to be afraid, sensing the ground breaking up beneath their feet, their malfeasance ever more revealed in the news (even the media they own)...and they will act out. Do not be afraid, for their actions amidst the new energy will show as desperate, highly undesired, and yes, the acts of the obsolete now moving out of the world. There is much support if they wish to join the positive direction so please send them love and compassion.

Do not waste your time in upset or fear. You will only manifest these in your life. Continue to recognize fear and negative issues bubbling up in your life; this is the cleansing process continuing unabated.

I am excited, I am exhilarated, I hope you are as well, or shall very soon come to be! Ask for guidance, clarity, perspective, insight, support, what you need to make your life its best. Loving angels and guides are right there with you, they stand at your side waiting for you to request their help and guidance!

Blessings!
