When 3,000 Americans were killed on 9/11, the dust was barely gone and the rubble not even begun to be cleaned up yet when then-President George W. Bush said his famous line, “It’s OK, you can buy now.†In our profit-driven economy, the big corporations—owned by the 1%—want Americans and the so-called “free world†to be consumers, and the economies of the world are based upon excessive consumerism and materialism.

“If you wish to know how something ends
Look at its beginning.â€
-Traditional
The acorn goes deep into the earth
And as the seasons pass,
Grows into a mighty oak.
Spreading its limbs for many years;
Giving shade and nourishment to the countryside.
One day, only to decay and return back to the ground.
O spiritual traveler, when you close your eyes
For the last time, where will you go?
The twin sparks of energy
That joined and exploded
Inside your mother’s womb,
Carry you through your days.
Then one day this energy too
Must journey forward to someplace else.
Where will this energy take you?
Remember, it was Love
That brought you here,
And it is Love that will carry you
From world to world.
One day, to return Home.

Like a captive bird
The soul sings,
Remembering its home.
It is precisely
For this song,
The bird is caged.

The economic crash of 2008 revealed more clearly the reasons why the international economic system must be changed, and the fact of substantial resistance from those who still try to benefit from that broken system. (more…)

The title of this write up says that a human being who is potentially divine has a wealth of values and beauties inside him which give him strength. Therefore he should live in this world as per his inner strength which should influence the outer world. And at the same time man should be so strong internally that nothing from outer world should influence him which is not in line with his belief system. When I say man is potentially divine it means that the soul or Atma is a ray of God Almighty, the one without a second, and the Atma has all the Divine virtues which need to be manifested to their pristine glory by human effort by yoga and by thinking about them and by imbibing them.

I recall that in December 2005, President and Mrs. Bush came under much criticism from certain conservative Christians who were unhappy with the wording on the card sent from the White House. These critics complained that since the Bush’s are Christians and Christmas is a Christian holiday, they should have used the word Christmas on the card rather than holidays. In the seven years since then, there has been an increasing conflict between the conservative Christians whose agenda is to keep the holidays “Christian†and the non-Christian religionists and non-religious to keep all signs of Christianity out of the holidays.
This is a season that Christians as well as those of other religions enjoy their particular traditions, and the citizenry of the United States is comprised of people of many religions, nationalities, and subcultures. Regardless of religious and cultural leanings, most people (including  the nonreligious)  in this country celebrate this season, for almost every aspect of society is permeated with utilizing the “holiday season†that starts around Thanksgiving and ends after New Year’s Day.

I grew up on Native American reservations, so as a child I experienced wild open spaces of land and black evening skies unhindered by the lights of human civilization. I recall many nights looking up at the vastness of the star-studded heavens and experiencing fear and awe at the bigness and deepness of space. I felt very small and insignificant in the hugeness of what I sensed the heavens were and, at the same time, I felt lovingly enveloped by that same space.
Most of my family and friends could not quite understand what I was feeling and thinking when I tried to express the depth of my emotions and thoughts when I looked into the night sky. It was as if they did not sense the immensity of space to the extent that I did, nor did they understand the paradox of my feelings about space—fear, awe, and being loved. By the time I was ten or eleven, I was more at ease with my mixed emotions about space. Thus I relaxed and basked in the beauty and wonder of the night skies, and did so without needing to share my thoughts and feelings with other humans, for I sensed the presence of unseen family and friends and was “at home†with seeming solitude.

As we learn to love one another, we come to realize that, in their purest forms, all religions teach the same basic spiritual truths: It is only the different ways we express them that divides us. Each system of belief has a different piece of the puzzle, and ultimately, to heal our communities and our world, we will have to fit these different pieces together and realize the essential truths that connect us all as one. In order to allow this to occur, we must open our hearts to hear beyond language and to expand in our understanding.

For reference about 2012, pineal gland, time travel, UFOs, humans from the future, shift of the earth Kundalini energy, galactic comity, etc.
Converging prophecies raise our attention to a change that people like to pinpoint in time to December 21st, 2012.
First a reminder, change is the only constant in life.
I first became aware of the concept of 2012 as the end of an era for humanity, in 2003 when hearing the ending of the “History Ends In Green” recorded presentation by Terrence McKenna (March 1993). His Novelty theory and “Time Wave: Zero Point” ends on Dec 21st 2012, coinciding with the end of the Mayan Calendar.
This raised my curiosity. (more…)

Furthermore, it is thought to coincide with the end of a 26,000 year cycle and, perhaps, that of a greater (4 x 26000) 104,000 year cycle. These cycles relate both to movements of and within our Solar system as well as markers in the evolution of humanity. The end of one cycle is simply the beginning of another and unlikely to be the end of the world as we know it, despite the movie ‘2012’.
Let us assume that 2012 will bring a great shift in consciousness, a time when man will move from the 3rd dimension to the 4th & 5th dimensions. In terms we might understand better, a move away from the very physical and materialistic plane of existence (3rd dimension), that we are living today, to a more caring and compassionate lifestyle (4th dimension) with a deeper connection to the higher planes of existence (5th dimension), the realms of the masters and angels.
