As usual, life has triggered some actual “thought processes“, so here we go!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While shopping at Safeway Stores, I noticed that potatoes were on sale. A 5 pound bag costs $2.99 while a 10 pound bag costs $3.99. As a former accountant, the wheels were spinning… for another dollar, I can get twice as many potatoes. WOW! Of course, the other half of my brain, the right sided feminine intuitive half was trying to nudge me to remember that I always end up throwing away about half a bag. Not to be daunted by my conscience, I moved to grab a 10 pounder - without cheese. To my chagrin, I noticed an air of putridicity wafting through my nasal passages as I neared the tangled pile of naked bags. After a whiff of the bag I was holding, it seemed there might be a rotten apple, I mean potato, within. I grabbed another. Same thing. After about 6 snorts of potato aromas and lifting 60 pounds of unknown origin, one was picked. Yup. This one is good. I marveled at my new “pecs”, which had grown considerably, while hefting all the bags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two days later, a couple of close friends, who live about 20 miles away, had run out of food AND money. I had some vegetables left from the garden, so I got a “grab bag” together, and decided to share my potato bounties. After all, one person can’t eat 10 pounds of taters. When I got to the middle of the bag, something struck me between the eyes, more like my nose. A rotten potato, with black ooze and ants crawling out of it stared me in the face. My efforts to “select” the right bag had failed! My mind ran like a race horse on speed. First, to discard the “offending glob of rot”, and work through my utter dismay. Next, I thought about all that time and care spent at the store, lifting, sniffing and intuiting which bag to choose. Ahhh… the Zen light bulb came on! Like the Indiana Jones movie, where Indiana and the “bad guy” both have an opportunity to choose the actual goblet that Christ drank from, the ancient wise one who guarded the vast array admonishes, “Choose wisely”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, the bad guy imagines that Christ would have had the most dazzling, bejeweled gold goblet of them all. Those who saw the movie know what happened to HIM! Indiana, in his wisdom, figures that Jesus would have been humble and unassuming; his goblet was probably the least obvious of them all. Of course, he was right. Is there a lesson here? I dunno. But the words, “Choose wisely” have been sticking in my head like a broken record. And, there is good reason why. Many of us feel in our bones that we approach a kind of “nexus point” of no return; a “lift off“, so to speak. Our lives are our judge and jury. The scales, once activated, will inform us where we fit best during and after the “Shift of the Ages”. Perhaps, like the parable of the prodigal son, all will be welcomed Home with vast, cosmic open arms. But perhaps not. I know that had I not changed course, many times during my life, I wouldn’t be sitting here typing these words right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I do know for myself is this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All wars are created to steal something from someone else, and have nothing more than personal gain behind them. We are all being “run” by beings, some human and some negative polarity ETs, for our energy, just like the Matrix trilogy informs through its use of metaphor. Intolerance and judgment of any kind is a demonstration of the soul level of the individual. Hatred of anyone is a living testimony to the person’s ignorance and delusion. More accurately, these folks are possibly “newbies” or newer souls caught in duality. Of course, they may have incarnated with a soul contract to act in such a manner for the benefit of being a bad example to others, thereby instigating love, kindness and compassion. No one person can know what another’s path really consists of or why. As for the “Powers That Be”, it’s true that some have ruled this planet both from the surface, from below and from above with an iron fist to milk it of all that can be had. The main payoff is our negativity and fear. As our fear levels, violence and injustices increase, they eat the residue as if it’s filet mignon from a 5 star restaurant! But what we don’t see yet are the “invisible realms”, which, like the air we breathe and take for granted, also exists in much larger force.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every dog has its day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 3 cats that I feed daily. At night, there is occasionally some left over. The skunks are kind of cute in the way they waddle up to the bowls, and tilt them to get the food. I like skunks. The raccoons, however, are filthy dirty pigs. They sneak in, eat the food, then turn around and shit in the bowl! If you live in the country, you know this is true. They do this repeatedly. All one can say is that there are creatures on this earth and in the shared universe that are disgusting! We don’t have to like what the elite and a handful of selfish creatures are doing intentionally. They bring us mercury, chemtrails, aspartame, GM foods, wars, militarization, pharmaceuticals, HIV and AIDS, cancer, flus, fear and a thousand other simultaneous programs designed to profit off of humanity, while destroying it at the same time. But, like the Raccoons, we don’t have to “fight them off”. But we can stop feeding them. It’s okay to know in our hearts a small handful are doing things we find “disgusting”, while turning our lives to a higher road. At some point, the low life of the galaxy fade into obscurity as we approach the pinnacles. We can leave that bar at Star Wars! Think holographically, beyond duality and polarization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today might not be a “Doris Day” in your life, but we each have the power within us to choose. Now is the time, at the end of many cosmic cycles, to choose wisely. I wouldn’t want to be caught with my pants down doing the foolish things I used to do a mere 10 years ago! You can read about it in my book if you like, “Tales of a Zany Mystic”, which is available at www.amazon.com, and it’s not for the faint of heart! A few have tried to put me on some kind of “pedestal”. As I topple easily, my natural inclination is to simply be myself, speak my mind, and it isn’t long before the illusion of me being some kind of “guru” is magically dispelled! I’m no Saint, to be sure… A wise soul will choose to be closely aligned with the highest within; call it spirit, soul, intuitive self, or Mother Nature if you like. It’s an internal, moment by moment “struggle”. But the hardest job in the world is to detach from the world and stop whining about it. Anger and outrage are distractions we use to keep our Selves in denial and fear, so that we don’t have to make the necessary changes we know, in our hearts, are necessary. Anger feeds those very beings we are resisting. We all do it, myself included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, during this time when there are “wars, and rumors of wars”, those of us who know in our hearts that this is a crazy, whacked out planet of imbeciles, must endeavor not to lower ourselves to the level which is constantly and intentionally thrust upon us: stupidity. Yes, these are the “end cycles” manifesting. Yes, much will be revealed and will occur that is disturbing to the extreme. But isn’t this the roller coaster ride we signed up for? Didn’t we purchase the ticket to Nine Flags, just so we could be thrilled, scared and frightened to death for a few moments? Our lives last but a twinkling of an eye, but our spirit is eternal and infinite. We are the Explorer Race, about to transcend ourselves, like the caterpillar and the butterfly. Nature, in her wisdom, reveals much for those with “eyes to see”. You and I and “All That Is” are ultimately one vast non-local spirit, just beginning to awaken to “multidimensional realities”. Unlike the masses at this time, we have the option to be more aware, more conscious, and go “out of our minds” to align with the intuitive heart of hearts within. In each moment of now, which is all we have, the option and responsibility exists for each one of us to “choose wisely”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-7646411584152366306?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/7646411584152366306/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=7646411584152366306' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7646411584152366306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7646411584152366306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2009/10/choose-wisely.html' title='Choose Wisely'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SuX_PjumSVI/AAAAAAAAAao/kor25Wo1SC4/s72-c/blake_jacobsladder.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-4441715828391282042</id><published>2009-09-04T13:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-04T13:30:39.724-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Saturday 9/5/09 PATTY GREER on A Fireside Chat</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SqF439D9pBI/AAAAAAAAAaQ/FAbO8-r8BdU/s1600-h/Patty+Greer.bmp"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 378px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SqF439D9pBI/AAAAAAAAAaQ/FAbO8-r8BdU/s400/Patty+Greer.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377712332736406546" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Saturday Sep 5th&lt;br /&gt;on A Fireside Chat &lt;br /&gt;7pm Pacific Time&lt;br /&gt;10pm Eastern Time&lt;br /&gt;airing on Station 1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patty Greer &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For thirty years, Patty Greer has been known for her musical prowess as an accomplished singer, songwriter, pianist &amp; harpist.

There is a method to my madness. The Goddess is a mysterious Feminine Archetype, whose facets have been explored by some of the great leading ladies. The innocent and naïve charm of Audrey Hepburn, exploring the boundaries of “true love”, the conniving and heartless Queen of Lust - and of Pepsi, Miss Crawford, and the Many Faces of Eve, Bette Davis. This is a time when the dominant rule of distorted male patriarchical societies is ending; a creation of the “old paradigm”. The NEW paradigm will be temporarily overshadowed, or over lighted, by the Divine Feminine, who now voyages to take her rightful place in the pantheon of Gods and Goddesses in “All That Is”. A new vision is sharpening on the holographic movie screens of my world, regarding the many shifts we’re currently experiencing which accelerate exponentially until around 2012. The precise timing is personal, so none can make generalizations. Tune into your inner clock radios for guidance and details. I find the HF (High Frequency) stations most enjoyable!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s only natural to wonder what possible experiences may be on the horizon, since so many of us are researching, awakening and hearing different versions. All versions are accurate according to their creators. Never mind that each “creator” is but a small puzzle piece, viewing the cosmos through one set of glasses or spectacles. This is related to the “gifts” and soul arrangements prior to incarnating for the “big events”. Some have an uncanny ability to synergize numerous “world views” and weave a more vast and interesting tale. A few examples are Michael Tsarion, Darryl Anka and Daniel Jacob. There are thousands of others in this cosmic cast of characters, so trust those you are drawn to, since all spokes in the hub lead to the center. There is literally “no time” to convince anyone else of having the “right way”. And what’s the point of always being a know it all, who mistakenly imagines from an egoic perspective, that they are “the Chosen One” and only their way is the right way? How old paradigm! Literally everyone is chosen, as we choose our Selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the awakening process morphing into?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m seeing a dual image: that of an RKO Electric Radio Tower and yellow tulips. Those who are involved actively with their own awakening, pushing the “pedal to the metal”, are accelerating at a faster pace. Yet, we are all subject to the spiraling energies which are swirling around now so rapidly that it’s indeed dizzying! Some may find themselves having numerous epiphanies, synchronicities and enlightened moments, only to return to “Abby Normal” for brief respites into mundanity, bordering on insanity. We are the Beacons of Light, wired to channel lightning bolts of energy in all directions. Most of us are more akin to flowers in a field; bright yellow tulips come to mind, whose gentle swaying kisses embrace the solar logos. Their lives may be shorter, but are nonetheless spectacular. Since we are all eternal and infinite beings of light, no one actually “lives longer” than anyone else. The appearance of death is an illusion, in which we remove our bio-body suit and walk through another door into spectacular beauty beyond description. The imaginary “hell” zealots speak of is right here, right now. If you don’t believe it, just look around with open eyes. There is no further down the ladder we can go. This is it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will be 3-fold manifestation from the noosphere, the field, the zero point. It can be referred to as the “higher realms, densities, dimensions”, for those who think hierarchically. The mystically inclined might prefer “the other side”. Or, make up a new name; the field of consciousness in which we swim, fishes in the sea. The basic elements are all manifestations of “divine consciousness”, which manifests as “genius” in all walks of life. Einstein and Tesla are two examples of tapping into this “field of God” and returning with many lifetimes of solutions. A “psychic prong” will be showing up, bringing more who are able to “see”, channel and commune telepathically. Though channeling gradually becomes common, it will begin to fade as the rest of us “get the message” and our frequencies rise. There will be openings of the Heart which may manifest in a variety of inspirational forms, such as the artwork of Akiane. Some kids coming in bring a broad array or palette of colors with which to paint a life of beauty and inspiration. We will all experience a “mixed bag” of these elements, as all the “Rays of Creation” begin to manifest in harmony, by aligning with our authentic selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In rising up to meet the higher realms, the efforts made to complete our own inner revolution begin to draw from the divine blueprint, and we are infused with spirit which is sometimes referred to as “divine intervention”. It is the breath of God, literally breathing life into itself, its own creation, which is us, which is It. True Mirrors; not smoke and mirrors! There can be no separation or distance, and the imaginary distance we’ve felt for hundreds of years, through duality, fragmentation and polarization, is soon to be dropped like a discarded toy. Who wouldn’t want to literally glow with lifeforce illuminated from within, radiating beauty? It saves a trip to the cosmetic surgeon, to be sure, so surgeons many not approve of this “new energy revolt”. In fact, any who are presently at the “top of the pyramid” are going to find they have gone for the booby prize. They will have the most difficult time “adjusting” to the higher frequencies of love, compassion and interconnectedness of all within a loving Creation. I’ll leave the details of how you perceive this to you, since it’s a very personal creation and source of continuous revelations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ultimately, we are all experiencing the higher consciousness “fields”, and this may begin to reveal itself through various forms of humor and wit. Those who are more aware will be like members of an inside club, who are the insiders who “know the joke”. We will be laughing privately at the tomfoolery and naked obviousness of those who consider themselves “important people”. They have the furthest to fall, having placed themselves on their own pedestals, they are literally hoisting themselves up on their own petards! The juicy part is that rather than experiencing the “doom and gloom syndrome” that most must pass through, we will be laughing privately at the ridiculous foibles of an antediluvian mindset, which in its psychopathology imagines itself to be our gods, and we their slaves. Imagine that! Well, don’t, because it’s simply no longer the case. True, many still carry the yoke of enslavement, but by the end of this year, 2009, it’s conceivable that events will appear to conspire to collapse the old paradigms, so that the new may be birthed for all. It’s a precise process, timed to the nanosecond from higher realms, but here on this side it feels like chaos, moving at a snail’s pace towards some unknown future. Trust, relax and let go. All worries will pass away and there is literally nowhere to go, nowhere to hide, and everywhere to be happy. The first and last point is to BE YOURSELF!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who am I?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a distorted shell called false personality, which is our interface with others, and it has been created artificially through life’s distortions. This is not real, and will fall away. What’s left is an “essence” within, which is developed until a small child, then is usually stuffed down and trampled on, or locked in a closet due to fear, non-acceptance, judgment, etc. This is our authentic Self. It comes in with numerous wonderful skill sets, from many other lives being lived simultaneously. Because it is gentle, delicate and easily harmed, it learns to hide early on. Some have destroyed their essence, and have crystallized in the false creation of personality, which appears to be quite authoritative, knowledgeable and superior. Others of us are in touch with the “inner child”, and must re-learn how to interface with the “outside world”. To do this requires the intentional creation of a “true personality”. This is not a distorted construct, but an intentional conscious creation of spirit, to protect and nurture the essence or child within. There is a cosmic team of advisors, guides and loving souls to help us every step of the way every day, from the illusions of birth and death. Living authentically in abundance requires aligning with our authentic Selves, stripping away that which is distorted and false, meaning “not real”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It can take many years, for those of us who began early, to go through the “initiation by fire”. The ultimate fire approaches, but we have many “minor blazes” which help us along the way to strip the illusions off our reality. The true personality learns how to be authentic, without lying, manipulating or distorting. It seeks only to be authentic, and in that process discovers a beating heart, connected to other beating hearts. This is the “epiphany” which those who would control will miss: there cannot be empathy, heart, conscience in a dead essence. The false must be melted down and returned to purity. We are not concerned with how that process works right now, but we will be seeing it occur daily in one “meltdown” after another. The higher up we travel within, the more elegant and subtle the humor. We are in a cosmic joke, and those who are most serious are going to be the last ones to “get it”. But, “get it” they will. None can escape this transitional period into vast, new realms never before experienced. We are truly the Wayshowers for each other and for many other advanced civilizations. We are doing something quite unexpected and seemingly impossible. We are creating a bridge from Gaia to Heaven and back, and there will be no shortage of loving souls to “show the way” as the times become more intense. We will walk the Rainbow Bridge together, hand in hand, into the purity of illumination and a loving radiance which enfolds us all. Remember to laugh along the way. Seriousness is a fatal illness!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our own personal Paradise is right here, right now. Simply open your inner eye(s) and re-member! Click those ruby slippers, and you’re HOME.

In fact, last night I told myself as Waylon Jennings might have proclaimed to Madame, “Self, if it’s within your power, you are NEVER returning to THIRD DENSITY! No longer do I CARE, at least at the surface level, if I “go on”, ascend, get lifted, or “whatever”. I’m so “over” this ridiculous, shallow and disgusting “game board” that frankly, the Illuminati, the psychopathic “elites” can take it all… let them have what they treasure most: power, wealth and destruction. Such is the path of those in “service to self”, negatively polarized. We, however, strive towards greater service to others, knowing the “other” is also our self, which is of a positive polarity. To transcend duality, it’s possible to embrace both. Some “elite” believe that we’re to be eliminated. Then, they would begin consuming each other, as the image of the Oroboros, snake eating its tale, suggests. Sources close to my Source are whispering, “Do not worry… relax, be happy; this will all pass away to your approval and amazement quite soon.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some “lightworkers” will always be horrified by anyone who suggests that we should “get mad” as in the movie “Network”, in judgment of others. That’s quite accurate. However, at the level of 3D it’s inevitable during transitions to higher frequencies that we will, at some point(s), move back and forth between utter disgust, nausea and “breakdown” into breakthrough. From the “other side” beyond the hologram of smoke, mirrors, bread and circuses, there simply MUST be a place of higher intelligence, compassion and freedom from duality and from greed, fear, sex, addictions and survival issues. Lately, I’ve had friends and strangers share brief glimpses into their childhood, sharing horror stories of dysfunctional behavior so beyond Alfred Hitchcock’s tales, it makes his movies seem like documentaries on Mother Theresa and the Saints. And we have but to glance at the world stage to pick up the truth that everything is being secreted away, stolen, distorted, manipulated and controlled. It’s truly “as if” we live in a hall of mirrors, a literal prison planet of our own making. Paradoxically, upon closer examination of our prison bars and door, we see that there never was one in the first place. I find myself asking:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How on EARTH can such gross distortions and rampant destruction continue?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, this is a rhetorical question. Okay, I hear some of you saying to yourselves, he needs to meditate, breath and look at the POSITIVE side of life. Perhaps there is wisdom in that view; if so, I’m not feeling very wise - or smart these daze. As a fragmented consciousness, a reflection or mirror of all that is, this is simply a validation to those who are feeling “squirrelly” that it’s NOT just YOU. I suspect that vast numbers of us, who are moving more deeply into our own awakening processes and uniting on higher planes, are wondering if there is some place of sanity to hang our hats. Alas, this is the time we have been “girding our loins” for; the times of great tribulations and magical manifestations alike. Had we known, or if we DID know what’s on the horizon, would we be here now? Again, rhetorical because we ARE here, Blanche… we ARE in this wheelchair! And many of us haven’t even SEEN the rat under the silver dome - yet. The main saving grace for me is HUMOR. Lately, even that has worn quite thin, making way for expletives and outbursts. Still, I’d rather have a “laughsitive”, leaning towards manic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes, awakening feels like squeezing a pimple before it’s ready to pop. We are too impatient to let nature take its course, and not quite trusting enough to allow the vast wisdom of our bodies to heal themselves. It’s simply TOO tempting to play god, and try to force the hand of time. The result is often that we must take more time to heal, than we might if we could simply learn how to “let go and go with the flow”. So the big question of today is, “How can I/we move beyond the limitations of our minds, and step into the oneness and flow of the non-local intuitive light of unconditional love and bliss?” Don’t shoot the messenger, because this is the million dollar question, and it’s not going to be “answered” by me at this time because I don’t have one! Oh, there are tools in my toolbox that sit collecting dust, since I seem to be bored with those old toys. I want a NEW TOY (OhOoh) and there just ain’t none around. There is literally nothing new under the sun. Okay, how about IN the sun or BEYOND the sun/son? I think it’s time to pull the other foot out of lower density, while being able to function as if in it. It’s always wise to step out of the doodoo while you can still move your legs!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For me, that means removing everything that continues to cause even the slightest irritation or grief. This could be as simple as a leaky hose, an outdated relationship or anything in life which no longer “works”. The next prong of the stool is to further those activities which bring the most joy. Discovering what “blows my skirt up” is a lifelong affair; yet, we have less time exponentially to make these inner discoveries. It’s as if the condensation of time and space require that we dive off the diving board and find out experientially if the water’s fine. For some, this may feel like being poised at the edge of the cliff, having been told there are angelic wings, as we contemplate jumping. We must trust that we will know how to fly, like a new baby bird. Still, timing is everything and that jump is not quite ready to manifest in the collective consciousness that we are. It’s coming. The third prong of the stool requires imagination. It’s possible to use Creative Imagination, rather than negative egoic mind, to experiment beyond anything we have ever done, been or know. That seems paradoxical, since once something moves into our awareness, it’s then “known” and no longer in the vast aether of The Field, Zero Point or Eternal Infinite Now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately, I organized my “trials and tribulations” prior to incarnating in such a way that the most horrific would manifest during the first five decades of my life. On my 52nd birthday, there was a rude awakening: the event which was manufactured on many levels called 9/11. I’ve come to move beyond the truth seekers who know that an elite group arranged the many events of that day prior to their manifestation, beyond those who might say it was designed by higher entities outside this timespace for our benefit, and into an awareness that at much higher levels of consciousness, it was the result of divine manifestation sourced from an impersonal and unknowable love. We cannot conceive of such things, largely due to emotional immaturity. It’s almost impossible for us to comprehend compassion and unconditional love, let alone an impersonal form of that four letter word which knows all, is all, beyond all. This is where a form of intuitive faith steps in, from our own “higher information” or spiritual connections to The Infinite Light of All That Is. Thank goodness we have a personal and impersonal multidimensional connection to Source energy, known but mostly invisible and presently unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the next year, it will become increasingly valuable to step into our “own” inner knowing and wisdom. Things are going to get truly “crazy” as time runs out and novelty increases exponentially toward D-day, December 21, 2012. The good news is that even the “elite” don’t really know what’s coming, though their secretive manipulations to acquire Sumerian tablets and scrolls in Iraq, in the left paw of the Sphinx, in the underground chambers of the pyramids, or in the various other “time capsules” we are not privy to, haven’t figured out what’s coming. Even though “they” have bases on other planets, perhaps access to alternate timelines and parallel dimensions, there is no escaping the reconnection and melting down into an interconnectedness of all that is. Gods can be created, and they can be melted down to create new forms of manifestation, as Joseph Campbell points out through mythology and archetypes. Soon, we shall discover the worlds beyond our present limited density and consciousness, beyond Cosmic Consciousness, and beyond the beyond. As Swami Beyondananda says, “I know great earth changes have been predicted for the future, so if you’re looking to avoid earthquakes, my advice is simple: when you find a fault, don’t dwell on it.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love, Peace and JOY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-2285041846761460426?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/2285041846761460426/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=2285041846761460426' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2285041846761460426'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2285041846761460426'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2009/06/christina-i-told-you-no-third-density.html' title='Christina:  I told you!

Countless millions of galaxies, parallel universes and “other” densities have had to climb up from their own unique forms of limitation, yet all share this basic step. Peace is a building block for all beings’ evolution. Those who choose the limitation of being “individual” remain mired in illusion, a valid choice. This is referred to as “service to self”. It is a legitimate and necessary part of the cosmic balancing act, as various forms of life traverse duality. Polarity has its necessary lessons, and without free choice, “lessons” are not truly learned, but forced; even if through benevolent “controllers”. Through the magic of multiple dimensions, we are able to be our own “god/goddess/all-that-is” and a unique aspect of a particular point in creation. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is the value of residing in multiple densities. The “down side” for us here, is that we’ve agreed to accept varying percentages of “forgetfulness”, called “veiled consciousness”. In other words, we’re not operating with a fully conscious deck. Many of the cards are “missing”. Ego fills in the blanks with inherited and distorted realties, which soon turn into beliefs, then “Truth”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We live predominantly from our unconsciousness, or “walking sleep”, pulsed by our subconscious desires, which reside below our own radar. Alcohol, legal and illegal drugs, sex, religion, television and anything addictive are just a few of the ways we’ve creatively remained “asleep” in denial. Upon beginning to see the truth about ourselves or the world we’ve co-created accidentally, it’s so disturbing and emotionally painful that we instantly move into some form of denial or escape. Those who have a few more “lifetimes” under their belts live closer to the heart, intuition, the unseen senses, and their soul’s alignment. This may take the form of some type of spirituality, or it may not be something one needs to pursue, being “older souls” naturally. Many born today have far less density, and are entering at birth almost conscious. Parents have been baffled by the astonishing wisdom of their own children, often resorting to physicians, drugs and sedation to keep their kids “in line”. New labels, such as Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow and Psychic Children, permit them to “be” without the psychic and toxic interference of the pharmaceutical industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a slightly larger scale, we can easily observe the chasms growing like the Grand Canyon, between those who may not quite comprehend what’s happening, not being in touch with their authentic selves, vs. those who are. The difference between these two basic polarities centers around a spiritual revolution which, on the “service to others” side knows that there is one Higher consciousness permeating all life, known and unknown, seen and unseen; and we are “it“. Those who are not aligned with their soul’s purpose, who may be lingering in an early lifetime, could rise to the “top” of material wealth, and today we know that the impact the “few” have on “the whole” is both dramatic and unseen. Many lifetimes of self-interest crystallize the soul as a “negative polarity”. Some “newer souls” are here to “catch the wave” of energies, less “movers and shakers” and more like “extras” in an epic movie. The metaphor of movies holds up fairly well, though all metaphors break down eventually, being relative to the level from which one observes and speaks. Some, here from densities beyond the 5th, are holding higher truths by observing - not speaking; their energy permeates from invisible realms, which raise “the norm” for the collective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wayshowers, lightworkers, incarnated angels, new breeds, walk-ins and “observers” to name a few, channel the energies which are responsible for co-creating new paradigms. In the movie “Contact”, Jodie Foster’s character is told, regarding human and ET contact, “This is how it’s been done for millions of years… one small step at a time, Ellie.” Not everyone is Ellie; some have, or will, experience dimensions and realities far beyond the majority’s view. Choosing to remain in the same state will become increasingly difficult for those who cling to old paradigms, beliefs and thought forms. This is not punishment; rather, the result of one’s choices. There are points in one’s evolution when there is no longer any doubt about what is a correct or a “right path”. And that path is both unique, collective and existing in higher consciousness. We know intuitively what is “right” within, and going against that inner wisdom always brings lessons and hard knocks. Aligning with our intuitive Self/Soul brings forth synchronicity, abundance, joy and bliss. It is mandatory that we begin and end this journey with self-love. Without cultivating an ability to love ourselves, healing and love for others is not possible. We are merely fooling ourselves, mired in illusion and self-deception.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though its possible to work directly on increasing our awareness and consciousness, it’s far easier to strip away what’s not real; illusions, beliefs and negativity. By releasing what’s false, from our bubbling personalities designed to manipulate, to lying to others, it’s most important to stop lying to one’s Self. This is called “clearing”. There are four major bodies to be cleared; the physical, emotional, mental and psychic/etheric bodies. Balance comes through expanding inner awareness, working simultaneously to see and “clear” what is dark, dense and false... “The unexamined life is not worth living.” Socrates said that at his trial for heresy. He was on trial for encouraging his students to challenge the accepted beliefs of the time and to think for themselves. The sentence was death. Many of us incarnate for rest, rehab or “vacation”, so it’s not only foolish to judge anyone; judgment of any kind nails our spiritual feet to the floor. Negativity is another factor that depletes the fine energy required for awakening. Once one admits that one is in that process, regardless of where on the timeline, the hourglass turns over. We are somewhat in charge of the pace of our own awakening, and may hasten the process by stomping on the gas, as we can by putting on the brakes. In the end, it is our destiny to live as fully conscious beings, free from disease, hunger, poverty, war and isolation, in bliss and love. The fragmentation we chose to experience as “chips off the old Block”, is ending.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether we all ascend “en masse”, one with earth, the planets and stars, or choose to continue in another timed period of third dimensional learning, reflects a choice already made. It may appear that some are “on the fence”, but we cannot “know” another’s path. This leads one onto a “narrow path” of our own evolution. Fortunately, there is enormous assistance available from birth to death in the form of a personal “team” of advisors/guides and higher dimensional entities, whose directive it is to shower us with love, abundance and “lessons” when we stray too far off our chosen path. If help is needed, we must ask. This is how the game works, in accordance with our own agreements, prior to incarnation. This incarnation is but a tiny fragment of the whole which we Are. To exist in a human third density body, we had to select a percentage of spiritual energy to enter into human form/matter, depending on the goals we set up for ourselves. Yes, it’s possible to have chosen too little for the task, or to make errors in judgment which use up more of our “spiritual bank account”. Some live in dire poverty, while others seem to thrive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why walk-ins contract with the soul to “exchange places”, if a soul is having difficulty reaching the finish line. It also cuts out the “baby/childhood” segment, allowing advanced souls to finish some particular task, while retaining growing awareness of their purpose. “Reality” is a topsy turvy process, since we don’t know the truth behind the veil, at this time. This is the major reason why judgments are useless and only serve to slow evolution down. It’s smoke and mirrors, and keeps us asleep, not looking at our own side of the walk. Learning to walk one’s talk begins at the level of impulses from spirit, continues with the thought process, and is coalesced with emotions which add water to the clay; spirit rightly molds the pottery. We are all works of art “in process”. Those who allow and encourage ego to drive the car, soon end up in the ditch with varying degrees of damage to heal. Again, this prolongs ones evolution and is counter to awakening. Choosing ascension just by being here, signifies our willingness to drop the mask, stop replaying our dramas, and finally mature to sit at the table with the “adults”. We are the adults already, and the vast portion of our non-local consciousness is patiently guiding that which is experiencing fragmentation towards reunion with itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Universal Mirrors&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything we see is a literal illusion; depending upon our blinders, we take in a minor portion of the true reality that lies in front, behind, under, above and within us. Soon, upon return to full consciousness, which will seem magical with telepathy, manifestation and unity of spirit. If there is any confusion about “what’s real?”, it’s easy to figure it out: treat everything “out there” AS IF it was created WITHIN. If you don’t like what you see in the “mirror”, you must be the one to smile first! Be responsible. As we continue shedding our falsity, we move further into “observation mode”. From our Observer, we see the swings of the pendulum, from far right, to far left, remaining calmly centered. The eye of the tornado is a model for calm detachment; Buddha advises, the “way” to enlightenment is through non-attachment. As world events heat up, remember to detach from the illusion, while focusing on what brings the most joy and self-empowerment. When we become embroiled in life’s foolishness, there is little spiritual capital left for the inner voyage; it’s like being in a rowboat trying to paddle to shore with a feather. To further self-empowerment, look around to see where it might be possible to be of service to others. We learn to swim on our own, finding the vast array of invisible help along the way; while ourselves extending a helping hand wherever possible. True, it’s a paradox, but then life IS paradox!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learning to live with paradox and opening our hearts can elevate us to higher dimensions, as we continue our “personal” and collective voyage home; home is where the Heart Is. We needn’t wait to click our Ruby Slippers!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So LIVE, LOVE and LEARN! And, if I were to whisper in your ear, I'd suggest following your intuition, heart, bliss and highest good for all-that-is. There are many more of the "all" than we presently allow ourselves to be aware of. This is changing, and in our lifetime(s), we will experience the Grand Shift of All Time.

Everything in your life is a result of abundance. If we resist some inner or recessed area of our own shadow, by stuffing it we get &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;PUHLENTY&lt;/span&gt; MORE in abundance, until it gets to be so unpleasant that we finally "wake up" to another aspect of ourselves that has hitherto remained "hidden", to take ACTION. Wherever there is ANY self-deception, we can expect bumps in the road, until we &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;acknowledge&lt;/span&gt; the full truth to ourselves without any &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;egoic&lt;/span&gt; wrestling to "get out of it".There are 3 force to all creation: Active, Passive and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Neutralizing&lt;/span&gt; Force. All three must be "present" to create what is termed an "octave" or action, which begins as a blank slate (ZERO field), and works its way through the notes. There are two places where an additional effort is required, in order to keep one's new intent/thought/creation ON TRACK:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An INTERVAL at MI-FA, and one towards the end at SI-DO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Briefly, it words like this: if one is not conscious, the extra effort to maintain an octave in its original course can DEVIATE ever so slightly at the intervals, without one being aware. As the octaves continue to spiral, each successive octave moves slightly in another direction. Without conscious energy infused at these two key points, everything that is unconscious ends up turning into its own opposite: LOVE becomes HATE, Peace turns into War, even though the shell of the original LOOKS THE SAME. If you examine most popular "movements", throughout history, this becomes obvious. The rebels overturn the Dictator, who in turn become even more tyrannical. This is inevitable without consciousness and that includes opening the heart &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;chakra&lt;/span&gt; and connecting to other souls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, this is one key element that most folks are unaware of. First, we must be PRESENT, and CONSCIOUS beings. Since we are not living embodiments of continual consciousness, but &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;vacillate&lt;/span&gt; between many stages of sleep and awakening, our "goals and intents" always end up being something different, or just fizzling altogether.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Work on raising CONSCIOUSNESS is direct work on manifestation. It begins with becoming an Observer, and creating a separate self that watches everything we think, feel, say or do. The process of "purification" is our own work to do. No one can do this for another, though some "Masters/gurus" CAN raise consciousness directly, in individuals or groups, as they desire. They are beyond the confines of this matrix and density.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I don't know any at this time, and am not about to get off my butt to go seeking one, that route is "out". I must raise myself up, to the extent possible, as long as I remember, which means...am awake and not falling back into a deep snooze. This is our condition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The NEXT part requires a great deal of TRUST, faith and LETTING GO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To create anything, let's say MONEY, it's necessary to get it to FLOW. If you block up a river, with a dam, nothing trickles down to what used to be fertile territory. This is why saving, hoarding and hanging on for dear life doesn't work. We are CLINGING to the concept of SCARCITY and LACK. It requires a leap of faith to LET GO and start spending, even if it is your very LAST dollar. Those who pathologically suck the material wealth out of the planet, and from everyone else, are living in a fragmented, distorted &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;pathological&lt;/span&gt; realm. We do not need to do that, or to emulate these negative models of self-destruction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once we realize that by letting go, we can "get more", that more can be delivered, as we open the valves of our own insecurities, we can let the water spill out of the dam. As it is, we're like the person trying to hang onto what he/she has, by poking our fingers in the dike, where abundance is trying to do what it naturally does, FLOW.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of us have fingers, toes and our noses in a HOLE, thinking that if we don't stop this flow, we'll have nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, we must also retrain our thought processes, which create flow, by realizing that flow already exists and there is nothing really to "do" but get out of our own way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paying others for their "esoteric wisdom" in films such as The Secret, is another attempt to give our own power away to others. They KNOW the "secret", and it's a con game at best. Get people to believe in something OUT THERE, which saves them the work of actually stepping out of their own way, and they'll buy anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It isn't necessary to BELIEVE in any gods, goddesses, avatars, masters, angels or anyone ELSE to provide, other than knowing that our own "higher information" needs to be accessed, and that brings us to connecting to our inner voice, intuition, empathy and psychic realms. By listening to ourselves, we get the very best information. I've also learned to listen to others, and make internal comparisons to my own information, and see if there's something I am missing. Sometimes yes, sometimes no... no one "thing" works every time, so our methodologies must shift and change with each new moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BEING IN THE NOW&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no substitute for being present. When we are, the realization cannot be avoided, that we have everything we need in THIS moment of NOW. It is also a spiritual revelation, to know that spirit is infinite and eternal, and that nothing is lacking or missing. It may seem paradoxical or "anti-intuitive", but in that moment of realizing we are complete, more flows effortlessly into our lives on every level, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;synchronistically&lt;/span&gt;. And synchronicity is the key to guiding us closer or further from our own inner sources. Like the lights on a landing field at night, a plane can make adjustments to land, just by observing where the lights are. Synchronicity lights our path, and the closer we are to alignment, often the greater the synchronicity: flashing triple numbers, key words on radio, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;TV&lt;/span&gt;, etc., a phone call from a dear friend, unexpected money arriving, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For many, these little "thought tricks" and efforts might be too much to juggle all at once. To let up one's own shadow, to be conscious and aware of oneself, to observe, to be TRUTH FULL, and to know deep within that all is well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's another "tip"... you are GOD in your OWN Universe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cultivate what you have already, and leave the rest. We each have our own, ready-made Garden of Eden available to us. All that is required is creating out of nothing, with no evidence or beliefs, then bringing forth our desires, fueled by emotion. "If it doesn't FEEL right, don't DO IT". And, if you do do it, and it turns out WRONG, then chalk one up for your intuition, and listen and follow it more closely the next time! Stop banging your head with a brick wall... it's bad enough that there are folks in institutions, who do this all day long. We can see how sad and foolish THEY are... let's begin to see our own sadness, folly and foolishness, and lighten up about it. It's OKAY to be WRONG. This is how we can learn some of our best lessons. Know they will continue to recur, until we do "see" ourselves more clearly, without our rose colored glasses on... we can see others' silliness, yet we exclude ourselves, as if we are somehow "superior", wiser, or more advanced. Right. Look for your OWN weaknesses, and that is the gold which is created from LEAD in alchemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And remember, that everything "deviates" from its original intent, so that special effort is needed to finish what we begin. This is why we often get tired and "call it quits" after beginning to wash the car, we reach a point early-on, when we just stop. Or, at the end, before we finish cleaning the interior, we poop out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a collective, this is where we are right now. We are in the "push" to complete our original divine blueprint to the ascension &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;timelines&lt;/span&gt;. They are splitting, and we must align with what we already chose, long ago. Anything that doesn't resonate now, leave it. We don't need to FOLLOW anyone or anything. We have "the worlds" within us, all the questions, answers and densities.... so nothing is missing except to be present to the grand finale, and to HOLD INTENT for the highest good for all. This is in resonance with the "Law of One" manifestations. What we do to another, we do to our Selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like the Zen story about the student, who asks the Master, what do you do upon achieving enlightenment? He replies with no hesitation: (paraphrasing!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before enlightenment, you chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, you chop wood, carry water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything changes, yet everything remains the same. And don't forget to laugh, love and have FUN in the process!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-4926319585975658287?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/4926319585975658287/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=4926319585975658287' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4926319585975658287'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4926319585975658287'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2009/02/keys-to-sparking-flow-of-bun-dance.html' title='Keys to Sparking the Flow of ABunDance'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SaHgdoxzCUI/AAAAAAAAAZo/C4reB-fdC5U/s72-c/gold.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-2482542374591012806</id><published>2009-02-21T20:43:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-21T20:47:01.593-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Transcending the Matrix of Duality</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SaDYjgKJ_UI/AAAAAAAAAZg/BScRlJe_90Y/s1600-h/Crystalline+Earth.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305478465481997634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SaDYjgKJ_UI/AAAAAAAAAZg/BScRlJe_90Y/s400/Crystalline+Earth.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We live in a world of illusion, quite literally. Imagine being able to copy your favorite programs, make your own changes to it, then isolate that program so that those who created it remain unaware that you’ve absconded with their “creation”. Then, you sell your versions and make trillions of dollars. The Matrix Trilogy is the closest representation to our shared reality to date. Our entire galaxy, our universe, filled with mystery and black holes and things yet to be known, is a duplicate on multidimensional levels, all the way back ALMOST to Source, but “not quite”. How is this possible? We have those answers within us, as each spark of the Divine is fully informed about this “rogue creation”. This is not the REAL world, and that explains why there is so much darkness, control and manipulation from higher densities than ours. There has always been a limited presence of higher density light, but the higher percentage of negative polarity has been able to confiscate and use it; until now. It doesn’t matter what the negative polarity creates here during these final few years; the incoming “pillars of light” which effect inscension for ALL who carry the divine blueprint, awake or not, is on its way and cannot be stopped.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a “false creation”, a distortion duplicated from the higher hierarchies to the lowest realms from the One Reality in which it resides, similar to the theory of fractals. All hierarchies have been “copied” up to around the 11th and 12th density. All-That-Is resides beyond 12th density, and has “allowed” this distortion to play out. Creation beyond 12th density has attempted numerous cosmic “rescues”, which comprise all the ancient myths based upon truths. The true “cosmic story” goes far beyond normal, run of the mill “conspiracy theories”. What we need to focus on is that we exist within (and without) the Matrix, as David Icke has been exposing. It is by opening ourselves up to “containing” or holding the vastness of light and dark within, that expansion of consciousness results. Many science fiction movies were seeded here to tell us in pictures, the real story of the many galactic wars and battles, fought “in the heavens”, made manifest on earth. This is a Reader’s Digest Highly Condensed version loosely highlighting the salient points. Here is one version of the story:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a collective, we chose, millennia ago, to give over part of our power in higher densities within a duplicate cosmos to other aspects of ourselves, referred to as “Creator Gods“, who had chosen to go “renegade”. Originally, before the first deviation from Source, “the fall”, there was full consciousness and connection between all that is. Creation was “copied” in its entirety by scientists far beyond our comprehension in a bold move which those in the higher densities allowed. There were so many safeguards from any rogue creation from returning UP the stream and transcending the Founders; at the time there were concerns, but none from those densities could imagine any aspect of themselves, manifesting in a lower density creation, figuring out how to subvert the entire process and “overwrite” those in higher densities. And yet, this is what happened, not just once but many times; and each “new“ distortion was more disturbing and further removed from the original source blueprint, than all previous creations. Oh, it may have taken several aeons of creation, many odd alliances, but it happened. We see evidence in the form of the destroyed planet Marduk, now an asteroid belt, the melted sands in Egypt, the result of many atomic blasts, and the “great flood” which was yet another attempt to fix things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Gnostics wrote in detail about the “false creation”, through metaphors about the birth of an “abnormality”, a distorted creator god, that did not fully know about the larger creation. That which thought of itself as a god split itself off from the original creation; in Atlantis they were called Sons of Belial. We, the “children of the law of one” (angelic humans) are returning “en masse“ to assist with lifting the fragments of ourselves which are currently “stuck“ in recurring incarnations at lower densities. This world of illusion is contained like an infinite “multiple parallel creation” within the larger true creation, which exists without missing harmonics and frequencies. Most who incarnate on this planet have been held in a frequency containment center (prison), and many of us who are angelic indigo humans, from the original divine blueprint, have incarnated from various other densities, realities and galactic federations, to effect the shifts which are going to return the deviated, yet brilliant “false creation” into alignment with the original blueprint. Those creator gods who cannot choose to align with Source, may be returned to “conscious space dust“, to start anew from the beginning of creation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those creator gods who could have reset the game many times, didn’t want to lose their sovereignty and superiority, which takes many trillions of years to achieve. And those higher aspects of these gods, out of love and compassion, continued to attempt various “rescue plans” for their fragmented family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eventually, one transcends the lower realms to become an “ascended master”, a group of entities, and one joins the larger and grander plan. Maybe boredom set in, maybe things just got “out of hand”, or both and more. But the True Creator, which resides outside and inside this creation, probably wanted to see how this would play out, knowing in advance the infinite fields of possibility. And what came about was QUITE impressive! However, to bend light and duplicate the original, it became necessary to use the life-force from an original creation. Further, those from beyond 12th density had to continue to choose what percentage of their own energies could be sent back into these false creations in order to effect a “rescue”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Various “councils” had attempted this to no avail, yet when another group suggested sending in a larger percentage of itself, they shrugged their shoulders and said, “Okay. You guys can try it, and see if you have any more success than we did, when WE attempted this, many creations ago.” And so they did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Murphy’s Law seems to work in ALL cosmoses, and the attempt not only failed, but those higher dimensional energies were also distorted and taken for use in creating yet another renegade creation, even more powerful. This turned into an “angelic war”. Some realms wanted to simply destroy the original renegades, which had already effected many space wars throughout the various galaxies and dimensions. They too became embroiled in the “battle between light and dark”, creating the many myths from all religions. Over millennia, many conscious beings from higher densities have incarnated through fragmentation, in order to pull these “alternate creations” back up from fragmentation into wholeness. We see their works and efforts in all ages. But the warring, manipulating distortions, who had taken control, overpowered the conscious beings who incarnated here. Due to free will and Allowance, all-that-is continued to observe. Densities beyond 12.5 became alarmed as wormholes and star gates were artificially created in order to make “connections” for the aberrant renegades in several of these cosmoses, which just happen to run through our own. The movie Star gate depicts the essence of this quite well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At various “intervals” in these grand cosmic octaves, there were moments when the higher densities had an opportunity to impulse their own frequencies into these now expanding creations, and restore the original divine blueprint. That would have required breaking down the distortions, which themselves were “creator gods”, into conscious space dust, to return as part of the Creator, starting again without full consciousness. Those in the higher councils, whose parts had been “sent in” to make these corrections or “salvations of those divine sparks of themselves”, to return to Chrystalline (Christos) consciousness, out of love for all aspects of themselves, continued to attempt further “grand plans” to save their asses. Literally. The assholes had gotten out of the zoo, had coerced other Avatar energies to join, and hence we end up with tales of Zeus, the Gods, Niburu, Annunaki, the Pleiadians, Arcturians, Atlantians, Lemurians, Grays, Blondes and most importantly, the Reptilians and Dragonis groups, which had become commingled with various angelic realms, all fighting for the “angelic human coding”, which has access to the original star gates that will be opening during “the shift“. Many interbreeding and genetic upgrades were attempted. Most of the people around today are the result; human masks on the outside, hybrids within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order for these “gods” to live, each duplicate creation, since it was no longer sourced BY source, yet was within it, trying to transcend and overtake it, had to draw ENERGY from the original creations, which sent aspects of itself in to “rescue the entire creation”. It’s easy to imagine what a mess can be made in infinite time, space and eternity! Many of the space wars occurred here. One of these creations, based upon Metatron, scientifically altered the duplicate, by altering physics into cube creations, which incorporated living and non living materials. Another movie was seeded in our unconscious collective, about this: the Borg. There were far more “bizarre” creations, similar to the bar in Star Wars. Those who had chosen immortality, rather than “eternal life” connected to source, could not perceive starting over, and continued the battle to dominate all creation as ultimate gods by closing off their aberrant creations permanently. This is getting very close now. We, the angelic human incarnate, are the living sparks of the original Creator, holding the frequency of the original divine blueprint. Those who seek us need the codes contained within to open the star gates with advanced technology to leap over those who hold the safeguards over errant creations and make their control “final”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why those with an original divine spark, the angelic humans, have been scattered or “concealed” all over the earth, and why so many “indigos” and others have been incarnating “en masse”. This is also why we are kept “ignorant” to ourselves. Until now, it’s been far too dangerous for us to be “taken”. Barbara Marciniak’s works speak of the “Pleiadian Renegades”, who have been infiltrating these distortions as “systems busters”. They had a hand in rebelling and aligning with the creator gods who think they own this place, having taken it by force, and their higher aspects are now helping us. The “learning” for the higher densities, and for Creator, has been dark, yes. Brilliant, quite so, just like “he who can’t be named” in the Harry Potter films. That is another metaphor for what’s happening within the UK as a main hub or star gate. Worse, there are many “others” here who do not contain the spark of life from source. They have no conscience whatsoever, no light and definitely no heart, and many of those are presently in control of this world. These are made by the creator gods who are attempting a final “coup d’etat”. But, like James Bond, in the final moment of battle, tongue in cheek, humor intact, wisdom exponentially expanded, we of the human angelic realms, will connect in higher matrices of crystalline energies, and those aspects which are drawing “life” or energy from chaos, destruction and control, through many world wars and constant battling, could end up returned to source without consciousness of all that WAS. Game Reset.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this is what they fear the most, as it’s the “second death”, though there is no such thing as death. It’s merely the loss of their supremacy, accumulated distortions and power. This is why they create fear for the true creation, which has successfully infiltrated the “nether realms” of lower densities, and all higher harmonics will be restored, rather than missing, and all will be known. Why can this information be shared now? Because we must begin to RE-MEMBER our SELVES. WE are from the divine blueprint for the angelic-indigo-human, soon to be “Christalline” or Christ-conscious”. We are guardians for the star gates, and our lack of conscious awareness has saved us from being absorbed into the unconsciousness of those without the divine spark. We see how many of our true family is still sleeping; yet, so are some of the negative polarity who do not know who they are. Cleverly hidden in our innermost recesses in plain view, as Sherlock Holmes suggested as the best hiding place, we have successfully begun our long, tedious and sometimes quite fun journey… HOME. Each of us can now tap into our own unique versions of the Galactic Family Story, and tell our OWN tales of our journeys, as we reunite together as One. It’s a grand celebration, and it’s soon to manifest in glorious Cinematic Vision with surround sound!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, in order to keep this from being taken as truth, or setting off alarm bells somewhere and drawing attention to us prematurely, this is just a story. It’s not necessarily true. On top of that, it’s channeled. Those who do not resonate or are not ready to awaken will not “see” or “hear”. It’s important for those who know who they are, deep in their hearts, to begin to recognize the energy vampires from the angelic humans, along with the MANY ET races that all wear a human mask. A lot of negative polarity work is done through crowds, control, frequency band manipulation, and this is what HAARP and chemtrails are about; the weaving of an increasingly tight fence which the creator gods believe will finally wrap things up here and allow full control of all the star gates, and the re-write of the higher densities with their own distorted lens. It’s vital that we remain true to our Selves, and that we continue to “act Abby Normal” and not spill the beans. So, fellow systems busters and family, hang tight. Know that we have vast realms from the highest densities assisting, and that assistance must continue to be “discreet”, and our covers not blown… yet. We are getting very close to the Final Countdown, so go within, follow your own intuition, and be alert!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the Shift: Many have spoken of this throughout the ages; Robert Cox’ Pillar of Celestial Fire describes the process in great detail. This is the “ascension” or purification by fire. That which does not contain the divine spark, all artificial or man made materials, probably our own flesh, will be washed away in the massive cosmic influx referred to as “Purification by Fire”. It is not WE who will disappear, but will be left to “remain standing”, transformed back into our pure forms, united with our Higher Selves as a collective and yet retaining our unique flavor, able to traverse up and down the densities by thought. We created the many stone monuments on this, and other planets, as a reminder, a “warning”, as the only way we could think of to keep the pure information hidden esoterically, yet right out in the open. The Illuminati at one time was part of the positive polarity, but it “turned” to the negative polarity, and joined the creator gods in attempting this last subversion of their vast cosmic plan. What we see today on earth is the “final battle” taking place in the higher densities, where we reside safely connected and deeply loved. All creation is equally loved, and this is why the negative polarity has had so many opportunities to be pulled back up from complete fragmentation and disconnect to wholeness and unity. This is the “reset”. Game Over. New life beginning in the MultiVerse, for all creation. It’s said that there is a “moment” when the Source “blinks out”, and not even the highest densities know the outcome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And doesn’t that make for an even more exciting game? Price of entry: childlike innocence, full awareness like a hawk, and an open heart in service to all, which is inclusive of our Selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-2482542374591012806?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/2482542374591012806/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=2482542374591012806' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2482542374591012806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2482542374591012806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2009/02/transcending-matrix-of-duality.html' title='Transcending the Matrix of Duality'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SaDYjgKJ_UI/AAAAAAAAAZg/BScRlJe_90Y/s72-c/Crystalline+Earth.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-902660012594473425</id><published>2008-12-02T19:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-02T19:40:27.709-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rolls Royce Consciousness'/><title type='text'>Learning to Drive the Car of Consciousness</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/STX9CWUYtSI/AAAAAAAAAYo/1cxxqZ24s6E/s1600-h/rolls-royce.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275400755327055138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/STX9CWUYtSI/AAAAAAAAAYo/1cxxqZ24s6E/s400/rolls-royce.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we shed the layers of the onion skin, meaning our personalized “baggage”, the natural and supernatural intelligence of the various centers which govern thought, movement, instinct and emotion begin to work more harmoniously. Messages are relayed directly to the higher functions, analogous to the higher intellectual and emotional centers, if you’re a Gurdjieffian, or the 6th and 7th intuitive senses, beyond the five we ordinarily use. The reason this can happen is because the ordinary unconscious being imagines itself to be awake while working, playing, eating and having sex, but is being run or led by the four lowest aspects, each with its own sets of unique and ever-changing desires. Once one moves into the higher aspects above those, one restores the Driver to the front seat, which has been relegated to the back seat since falling asleep. The car analogy works pretty well. When we are asleep, which is most of our waking time, the car is driving itself. Whatever it wants or feels like doing, it pretty much goes in that direction. Oh, on occasion it gets a bee in its bonnet and is able to hold the road for a mile or so, maybe even longer, to complete some task. But it remains there is no one driving; it’s simply following the direction it’s placed. This means it could veer off the road at any moment. Let’s say you have a goal of going to college. In your first semester, you “fall in love”. He or she is everything you could possibly want; so why continue? You start to slack off in your studies, the edge disappears, and you’re in “Loveland”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suddenly, in the second semester, you catch that person high on drugs naked having sex with your best friend. You’re crushed. It’s as if you’re dearest Auntie just died. Mourning, your grades drop even further. Still, you have friends who assure you that person “was never the right one”, and “I told you so”, and slowly you throw yourself back onto the road you were on with gusto. This is just a microcomical example which could be spun out in stories, yarns, and even novels. Much of what is called “literature” is chock full of this stuff, and even gets so “juicy” that best sellers are made. Such is the depth of modern life; as unforgiving as plastic at the dump yard. The goal of becoming a “conscious being” is not only due to the fact that this is what we are designed to be, but everything runs much differently. Everything is communicating with us, but because we’re “stuck” in the lower centers, unconscious, we only experience the matrix of our attention. Because everything which appears to be outside ourselves is constantly vying for the funds of our energy/attention, it’s easy to understand how mankind is caught up in a tangled web of meaninglessness. Soon, there is nothing else to listen to, and we “pooh pooh” anyone who tries to convince us otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What difference does consciousness create?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, the driver that has been tied up and gagged in the back seat is freed. Once that occurs, It sees the horror of driving willy nilly, perhaps even over a cliff, into a brick wall or two, or in a mass pile up on the freeway of unconsciousness. It climbs over the seat, grabs the wheel and immediately turns towards the compass of the highest road possible. This is where we were headed when we slopped into these flesh bags in the first place. True, it’s a bit horrifying to “wake up” at any age beyond 2 or 3, and realize that you’ve been dreaming a dream of a dream all along. But, I say “better late than never”. You begin to look around at all the other cars, going hither and thither, and you thank your lucky stars that you woke up just in time. Now, everything looks the same but it’s entirely different. The new matrix which you are communicating with begins with your own lower brains. They are HIGHLY evolved and far more intelligent than you could have imagined. Once you begin that wordless dialogue, they tell you things that you wouldn’t have fathomed had you been asleep. The miraculousness of life returns in all things, wherever you are, wherever you go. The “nowness” of life snaps back and the red carpet of synchronicity rolls out to the Royalty you Are, worthy of the finest in automotive craftsmanship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Analogies can only take us so far. This is why timeless poetry such as the Sufi mystic Rumi, the Whirling Dervishes, DaVinci’s work and the Mona Lisa, Michelangelo’s David, Bach, Einstein, Tesla and many others too numerous to mention, endure and evoke the highest within us. They are signposts along the way towards becoming conscious beings. Consciousness is a funny thing. It cannot be pursued, like a romantic partner, it must be approached from many directions without expectations. I’ve found what often works for me, though not always, is attempting to work on releasing that which is lower and unconscious in my own behavior. What’s left is what’s more real than what I tossed overboard with reluctance, often clinging to as if it’s treasure. As the ship lightens, it seems to operate more smoothly and with greater speed, the wind whipping my locks. Well, I have no locks, so there you have it: analogies can only take one so far.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nonetheless, magic, mystery and hidden worlds open their doors ever so slightly to provide a peek into realms so magnificent that they are blinding in their beauty. Things we considered “of the utmost importance” fall away, and the moment guides us wherever we are, as if on a sacred treasure hunt. Tonight, I discovered “Mushroom Land” in my own lawn. Underneath the pine tree, a gaggle of mushrooms has made its home, appearing like some mystical land on another planet. We are so inundated with inanity that our minds say, “So what?” Everything becomes mundane, cynical and regurgitated. “Oh, I’ve seen that before!” indicates we are in sleepy land again. Nothing is ever repeated in all Creation. It is constantly “refreshed” like the computer screen you’re reading right now. Hit “refresh” and you get the newest “in the moment” now information. We know what happens when the computer picks up an archived website; I often find myself reading yesterday’s news before I think “Whoops! Hit refresh”. So too are we, and everything is busily bee bopping in and out of dimensions faster than it takes for this thought to register. Speaking of thought…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Food for Thought&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all have people in our lives who come to us for guidance, information, friendship or just because they are attracted to our energy. Sometimes that’s flattering, and sometimes it’s not. What if those people who admire us, and come to us for our wisdom are, in reality, part of our “team”? Let’s use the standard label of Guardian Angel for now. Those souls who tell us how wonderful we are, how we inspire them or help them through a moment, could be the higher beings who are bringing THEIR energy to US, to infuse us with a needed shot or injection of conscious matter. Today, a friend who is from an entirely different paradigm than myself, dropped by, “because he enjoys talking to me”. During the conversation, I kind of egged him on to tell my why my energy seems to have a positive effect on him. He said that I have a kind of “magnetism” that draws people to me, and inferred that he was the one benefiting. I laughed and told him that I always enjoy his company, and feel uplifted when he leaves. We usually end up yakking about paranormal, spiritual and woo woo stuff. Today, he admitted having been picked up by a UFO. It wasn’t the first time. He was taken outside this system, and shown a beautiful place with rolling hills, peaceful and inviting, and told, “This is your home…”. On another occasion, he was with two friends, who all experienced the same thing: a ship hovered directly over them, a searchlight went on, each one feeling as if their minds were being read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I often say that no matter what we’re doing, even sleeping, we’re busy 24/7 in multiple dimensions, doing things we have no clue about. It would have to be that way, or the brain would overload. Also, wherever we go we carry the frequency of our own vibration, and if that vibration is of a higher resonance, meaning that we’re removing the barriers to beaming our own searchlights into other’s minds, hearts and souls, then we are continually shifting the atomic and molecular structures wherever we go. To put it plainly, we have a profound effect on everyone no matter how asleep they are. At the soul level, they “get” the energy and it’s like a signal beacon that says, “Time for TelleTubbies”….Time to Wake Up. People are not going to swoon and fall on the floor at the grocery store, talking in tongues, because it doesn’t work in such a ridiculous fashion. No, consciousness is far more elegant and subtle than that; usually. To reiterate: what if those who admire us most are the ones who are lighting our torch, not the other way around? It’s easy to see how someone could become enamored by the adulation of others, and mistakenly think they are “something special” or a big ‘ol Guru which is true at many levels. But it’s also a deterrent to moving up in the scale of octaves called consciousness. It’s as if the piano keys only play the middle range. The rats have eaten through the other strings, and to get a larger composition going, we have to have outside help to restore our range by replacing those tired, old worn out parts. Taking this a bit further, what if the “other” is all things; from enemy to guardian angel to God? We each contain a spark of the Divine; what if It is peering at us from other’s eyes and we are not awake enough to see?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Awakening has degrees, just like the octave in musical scales. There are subsets and minor/major tones but they are all there waiting to be discovered. Layers upon layers of magic which represent higher densities working in a lower one. This is one aspect about magic: it is the operation of a higher dimension working in a lower one. The lower cannot see the higher, so it is always obscured from us, depending upon the range of our ability to hop dimensions. By remaining in the lowest, where television, cell phones, politics, relationships and making money or having power reside, we are gaining lessons, but there is a point when the lesson has been learned and we are best served by moving on. We all know what it’s like to remain in a relationship or a job too long; it turns very sour and becomes a tortuous path, often stimulating the desire to escape into alcohol, games, food, sex, anything that can be addicting, even negative emotions. There is a payoff for all our “bad” experiences which repeat themselves, and first and foremost we must look at what we are getting from them. This takes a brave soul to look at it’s own follies without judgment. Each time we work through a judgment about someone or something in our lives, we strengthen our ability to stop being so hard on ourselves. This is the trick. If there is a trick it’s in learning to see ourselves as others see us, move out of the victim role and into the Driver’s Seat of Awakening. Ooops… watch out: there’s a cliff ahead!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Driving!&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-902660012594473425?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/902660012594473425/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=902660012594473425' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/902660012594473425'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/902660012594473425'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/12/learning-to-drive-car-of-consciousness.html' title='Learning to Drive the Car of Consciousness'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/STX9CWUYtSI/AAAAAAAAAYo/1cxxqZ24s6E/s72-c/rolls-royce.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-3497110280731426201</id><published>2008-12-02T18:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-02T18:48:31.887-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Day the Earth Stood Still</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/STXzUF8omfI/AAAAAAAAAYg/RYQEjBu2Lv4/s1600-h/The-Day-the-Earth-Stood-Still-75730.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275390065053833714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 315px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/STXzUF8omfI/AAAAAAAAAYg/RYQEjBu2Lv4/s400/The-Day-the-Earth-Stood-Still-75730.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;December 12, 2008.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it a coincidence that the remake of the classic movie, “The Day The Earth Stood Still“, comes out on the date of 12:12? I think not. There are no accidents. According to the time monks at Half Past Human, December 12th is slated to be a busy day, what with the two major earthquakes predicted by their “rickety time machine”, along with further ramifications of the disappearing trillions. It has always simmered underneath the psychic soup that everything is interconnected, and all one need do to comprehend larger pictures, is expand one’s mind and connect the dots. Even without all the pieces of the puzzle, one can begin to fit pieces together that belong on other levels of the puzzle, as in the multi-dimensional game in Star Trek. When the mind works in a linear fashion, it ends up with an enormous box of pieces, which seem hopeless to fit together. Only when one begins to perceive that there are many levels to the puzzle, does one start finding the solutions to all 12 puzzles. Then, one can begin to work on the 13th. This is an metaphor for awakening from individual consciousness and fragmentation to unity consciousness and multidimensional being, then transcending all the games. But we are getting ahead of ourselves “now”. Let’s examine some of the components of our time, which is highly energetic, and reveals much upon closer examination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is in store for humanity in the near future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For over sixty years, the CIA went Black, with numerous projects commencing with the global installation of Nazi scientists, compliments of Project Paperclip, in key positions from NASA to Disney and beyond. The bottom line is that over 60 years these projects have developed advanced technology, much of it “back engineered”, completely hidden for “private consumption only“. This includes the various agreements made with ETs before and during the time of Eisenhower which has kept corporate, military and governmental black operations “secret”. The remainder of humanity has pretty much stayed within a very narrow band of evolution; no free energy, healing of disease, perpetual war, increased dependence on debt to live, and a drop in consciousness due to the numerous “frequency bands” holding this planet in check. It’s as if we are kept in a test tube; more like lab rats, being laughed at. Alas, the “elite” who control the strings consider themselves outside the tube. This is a distortion. Hence, the world “should be” living at levels between the years 2068 and beyond 2100, since discoveries are “exponential” in nature. The “elite” are to be commended at their ability to conceal, hide, distort and control the game board. This is not destined to last forever, nor for much longer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are no Accidents&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The same gang that brought us 9/11, the Great Depression, World Wars 1 and 2, Vietnam and all the other atrocities around the globe, remain in charge today. That we are witnessing an “instant replay” of the Depression is carefully staged. First, the global banking elite must collapse the world’s economies so that the consolidation of power can be made global and central. New World Order of business. The two party system, which is an illusion, since they own both sides, will be collapsed into one. A benefit calculated into the game is to bleed all economies dry before collapsing. We are witness to the largest heist in history taking place at the very highest levels in broad daylight right in front of everyone; and this is why it‘s working - so far. At every step they have tested the waters; a few trillion here and there each month, but this is the beginning to the grande finale. What pulled the economy out of the last fiasco they created for us? WAR. All the players are being moved into place faster than you can say jiminy snap! That’s when “one world government” gets rolled out, with just a dollop of global genocide. One reason for the hasty moves: “they” are experiencing “internal conflicts”, the masses are getting restless and becoming more informed. Also, the timeframe must occur before 2012 or they “lose the window”. We should see most of their trickery commencing now, including most of 2009. Many are waking up, yakking about it on radio shows, online and one on one. It’s not enough to control the major media; all media must be controlled, and we must be tagged like animals with chips. Dip anyone?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lest one be alarmed, this is not going to end favorably for the Powers That Be. They have had their “day in the sun”, and the karmic laws of balance are also swinging like the infamous pendulum, which cries, “Off with their heads!” The Queens do seem to get all the good lines; another: “Let them eat cake!” Queens aside, the Kings are ready to step up to the plate of justice, as the Librarian scales tip back in a leap of evolution, which promises to throw all bets out the window, along with the cronies, good old boys, and “bad boyz” that they have been. This includes the Vatican/Mafia crowd as well. The Pope will just have to click his ruby red patent leather slippers and go home! Time for a change in channel; correction: we’re moving from television sets to quantum holography, and the “old farts” just won’t fit in there. Millions of Indigos, Crystals, Lightworkers, ETs incarnate and higher density entities are preparing to “step in”. Balance will be restored swiftly. It may be difficult for the mind to grasp just how rapidly everything can shift. Those who have experimented with hallucinogens, such as LSD, know that in an instant one’s entire world and cosmos can completely turn inside out. This is the nature of reality in a living, breathing hologram. Nothing is inanimate. When “life” is once again breathed into all creation, which has been held captive in a bubble within bubbles, literally everything will instantly connect and “come to” life. The bubbles burst, and all within get to reunite. Alice in Wonderland, move over!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This world of suits and ties, talking heads and verbal claptrap will vanish faster than those horrid age spots after applying a dab of Porcelana. All thoughts about what’s important will seem foolish in comparison and may not even exist in the “new world”. Just as Columbus (another distortion) discovered America, we will be discovering many new worlds and dimensions which have been prepping us for the massive quantum shift. And shift, we must. Those who can will, and those who find themselves committed to unconsciousness, service to self and negative polarities will be relocated to another game board for another race to the top, starting at ground zero; perhaps. We do not concern ourselves with the dead; let the dead bury the dead. We are life and life continues infinitely with complete freedom, unveiled consciousness, connection to All That Is, and all one’s stellar family of Light. All we need “do” is be ourselves; try not to hide your light under a barrel, as this is not the time to be shy, unassuming or in denial. False humility is a detriment, and fear of ego unchecked keeps us locked in old beliefs. It’s time to move beyond ego, limitation, beliefs and this reality which is coming to an end. It might continue on for some, and their transition will be seamless. We are concerned with those who know who they are, and what they are about. We all chose this “mission impossible”, and Mr. Phelps has left the room; along with Elvis, who waits patiently to sing us a song on the “other side”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So get your star studded skin tight white light leotards on, grab your guitar, and run, don’t walk, to the nearest exit from your mind… Marilyn waits by the air hose to show us the “skirt trick”. It’s a play, after all, and we will get to see how this nutty film was made in the first place. Just select “Special Features” for the ongoing commentary, or hit the button for eject, and put in your own holographic movie, created fresh from scratch in the “new-old now”. Every moment has been preserved better than an aging star in a wax museum.

As usual, the mangy cat which I’ve inherited psychically “sensed me”, as she often does, and slowly sauntered up the grass to be petted. I named her “Furball”, because she has long hair which gets matted up into huge balls that can’t be trimmed away, being too close to the skin. Today, she had several large clumps dangling loose, so with a sigh at being interrupted in my attempt to regain some composure, told her in my best Arnold voice, “Wait here. Ahh’l be back.” A quick trip to the kitchen for scissors, then back on the grass for her trip to “Zany’s Beauty Parlor”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I trimmed carefully both for her sake, and to avoid being scratched or bitten, but she trusted me, knowing that I was trying to help ease her misery. One of the clumps was about six inches long, by 3 inches wide, and looked like a wig. On a lark, I plopped it onto her head, saying, “Kitty has a new do!” It was such a funny sight that every time she flicked it off, I put it back on and went into hysterics at the sight. “Just LOVE your new WIG, kitty!”, I said. And, “Did you get a new HAT?” It’s DARLING! She finally gave up trying to remove her new “do”, and my dog just sat bemusedly watching this whole scene, thanking the gods it wasn’t HER in the Beauty Parlor Chair! Eventually, we all had our good time, our spirits lifted and my annoyance gone. In the process of helping this poor creature, who could be me hobbling around in pain, I forgot all about my own. This is the true value in being of service to others. We don’t need spiritual labels, such as STS and STO and STA to “get it”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People from all over the world, whose hearts are open, know intuitively the enormous value of helping another; be it human, animal, plant or mineral. All life is alive and conscious. In our daily rush to acquire pieces of paper and metallic things that weigh our pockets down and jingle, we forget that we can’t eat paper, it has no heart, and it cannot buy happiness. But it can buy food. Years ago, when I lived in San Francisco, I used to walk at night to the local store on the corner for necessities. There was a man on a blanket with his dog, clearly needing a helping hand, with a dish out for donations. One day, it hit me: I’d buy some milk, bread, cheese and snacks for him, and put a couple of dollars in the bag, in case he needed some alcohol or other items. What difference would it make to me if he used the money to drink? I myself was a drug dealer, addicted to speed, but it didn’t put a damper on my heart. Never did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are what we are, and nothing can alter our intrinsic good nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was so excited to come out and deliver my “care package”. The first time, I just handed it to him, and said, “This is for you…”. He was shocked, and I didn’t linger for kudos. It wasn’t about me. But the next time I saw him, I sat down and talked to him for a while. He turned out to be a very kind, loving being; after all, he had a dog, right? Anyone who loves dogs can’t be all that bad! Eventually, his story emerged. It’s amazing what suffering can do to soften the hard edges. It’s a blur now, but like many other hard luck stories, one thing led to another. I certainly knew that story! I had never expected, being a middle class gay white boy, that I’d end up a major dealer of party drugs to the gay crowd. But that’s where life’s path took me. Eventually, my “bottom” was far more devastating than my friend and his dog. It was my Dark Night of the Soul; one of several. Yet, I too had my “visiting angel of mercy” in my apartment one night. He said, “I’m an angel and I’m here to warn you.“ Instead of bringing food, it was nourishment for my soul for the truly dark days that would follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He told me that I would be arrested; twice…that I would spend time in jail, and from there would go through three long rehab programs. There was more shared, but that was the gist. He could only reveal so much to me, but before he stopped, said “I’m telling you this so that you don’t lose hope”. My life from there was never the same. Everything he told me in that brief window of time came true, and took over five years to play itself out. Many other encounters with angels occurred afterward. The most significant was the black man I met in jail, who went by the name of Catman. I write about him in my book, Tales of a Zany Mystic. Since I’m a lousy self-promoter, I’ll say that it’s available at Amazon Books, with many reviews to read. All the experiences of my life are recorded there, and in retrospect it’s a “Wild Ride” to be sure, full of addictions, dark nights, angels, demons, and ultimately “redemption”. I like to say that the lower we fall, the higher we can ascend. So, this advice is for those of you who are in the midst of your own “dark night”. Know there is Light at the end of the tunnel. We didn’t come here in order to fail. All our traumas and dramas are self-created for growth of the soul, and spirit is with us every step of the way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to “free choice” or will, we must ask for help from our “team”. Each of us has a team of experts, call them guides, angels, higher self, Oversoul, God/Goddess, All That Is, but call them! When we do call out for help, it is like casting a safety net. Truth be told, we’re never alone and the net is always there, no matter what. It doesn’t appear this way, due to the nature of living in heavily veiled consciousness. It’s kind of like those high tech security systems in spy movies, when the infra red light comes on, all the laser beams are obvious. We too are in and around many matrices, most of them unseen by the senses. This underscores the value of going within, hearing one’s own higher information which is always there, and intuiting what to do in the moment. Sometimes, it takes a brick on the head to have a moment of clarity. But when they arrive, we benefit most by facing ourselves in the mirror, taking a deep, hard long look, and by taking responsibility for every step we’ve taken which led us to where we are right now. This is the only way to move onward and upward through the many trials that we ourselves have placed on our own path, for our soul’s greatest growth and reward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ultimately, all lessons are about LOVE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know you’re going in the right direction by being TRUE to your Self, not living for or through others, as nice or as nasty as they may be. They are our props, who agreed to incarnate FOR us; to abuse, mock, ridicule or to love and adore. All is agreed to prior to this incarnation, just as we are here for other’s benefit, and for the collective consciousness of humanity, the planet and the Universe, all the way back to Source. I’ve done many “stupid” things in my life, and I continue to do stupid things, as the lessons spiral around from “the past”, for resolution. The trick in getting the lesson is to not buffer the experience, and to see ourselves clearly. Denial postpones the lesson, and stuffing it creates physical illness. Most illness is created from blockages which are the result of not being truthful with ourselves. Sometimes, we must reach a point of desiring change so much that we’d go to any lengths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By creating a context of visualizing ourselves “free of x, y or z”, the content begins showing up to match our vision. Within the context, the content includes lapses, failures and problems; but the way through is clear: Never Give Up. If you fall down, emotionally, physically or psychically, get back up on your feet as soon as possible. Dust yourself off, and accept the foibles of being fully human. Congratulations! You’ve graduated. Soon, after the school break, you’ll be designing your next semester of learnings. Does it ever end? No, but we gets lots of breaks, many rewards, and it keeps getting better when we choose “the high road”. The “low road” begins to disappear from view, the higher we climb. Destination: Heaven on Earth!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Remember, small steps, Ellie; that’s the way it’s been done for billions of years…”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the book and movie, CONTACT by Carl Sagan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5987066846123915165?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5987066846123915165/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5987066846123915165' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5987066846123915165'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5987066846123915165'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/09/kitty-has-brand-new-do.html' title='Kitty Has a Brand New &quot;DO&quot;'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SNa3gokre5I/AAAAAAAAAR8/XSFo3wY2w58/s72-c/cat+wig.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-7457208912721029553</id><published>2008-09-14T12:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-14T12:46:26.645-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Crossroads and Transitions</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SM1p7-e85EI/AAAAAAAAAR0/idUhhv_pD8o/s1600-h/crossroads.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5245965620062512194" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SM1p7-e85EI/AAAAAAAAAR0/idUhhv_pD8o/s400/crossroads.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SM1pV7Ufx4I/AAAAAAAAARs/6yh5I2l1_Tk/s1600-h/crossroads.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life appears to be going on as we know it. A time approaches, however, when everything shifts with greater significance than September 11, 2001. Again, in an instant, nothing will ever be the same. Actually, nothing is ever the same in any given moment, but there are also decisive moments in the collective. “Change” is so very close that it seems a bit “moronic” and sad to see people going about their business without a clue. At the spirit or soul level, we’re all aware and in the “now”. But the play of life, in which we agreed to assume certain roles, and awaken in time or not, is about to come to a finale; at least as we have known it until now. This coming transition will be far more disturbing to the masses, but sufficiently problematic for lightworkers. We who strive towards service to others, anchoring light and love, in the awakening process whether it began decades ago or just today, will need to unite at the level of spirit and remain out of fear. United we stand, divided… you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can already see visible cracks in the dike of our floating empire now, and nary a finger to poke in it, so busy are we obsessed in our denial over trifles. Also, numerous “upgrades” occur internally, at the Quantum levels. This is a tricky and potentially disturbing part of coming events. I hear and see “alarm clocks” going off everywhere I look. In some cases, the old paradigms will be paved over with new ones. In other instances, the plumbing will have to be cut off at the base and new improved fittings installed. One might wonder why we didn’t use copper tubing in the first place, but asking silly questions that begin with “why” are circular in nature and go nowhere. A valid question is “How does this situation affect my life, and what steps can I take to raise my vibration?” Knowing when to cut one’s losses is an asset in many personal situations, then taking action towards manifesting one’s true desires.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tempers are flaring; the near future holds unpredictable human outbursts. A wise person creates a space of solace and contemplation, a “safe place” where one can “be”. It might not be a bad idea to stock up on necessities, “just in case” one chooses to remain at home for a few days, and not have to venture out into the madding crowds. This is not a good time to be “accessorizing” with new clothes or expensive gadgets. Stocking up on food, bottled water, candles and survival supplies represent money wisely spent, even if those supplies are never needed. Peace of mind in 3D is a positive state to be in right now. Cutting oneself a wide berth and a lot of slack and acceptance is crucial. What was important today will not seem so tomorrow. Be prepared to reassess priorities, knowing they may shift in a heartbeat. It doesn’t take a psychic or channeler to “see”, although there is some wonderful information being shared from those who channel and others. Still, one must go within for any and all information. No one else “out there” can do that for us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all at varying stages in the awakening process, and that too is shifting from moment to moment. I’m trying to describe a “feeling” or portent that I haven’t felt before. It’s part apprehension, part excitement and awe, and part “unknown”. We fear what we don’t understand, but this is a case where we should fear what we DO understand. Let go of understandings, beliefs, ideas, concepts and attachments; at the least, hold them more “loosely“. Stay in truth and integrity; remain “heart centered” and think before acting or speaking. Okay, maybe that’s a tall order! But it doesn’t need to happen all at once; we benefit from remaining the Observer and not identifying with our personality and ego. Working at the level of thought and emotion, before they manifest, is good practice for moving back into “instant manifestation” from whence we originally emerged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By clearing the slate, erasing the blackboard, we create “the space” for our Selves to show up. We’re already connected, but like a radio station some are more “tuned in” than others. Plus, there’s a great deal of prior interference from the frequency barriers established by those who design us as servants to be controlled, as they are in service to self. Service to self requires others to serve, and tends to become increasingly confining for the controlled as it is a contraction of energies, a “containment”. Service to others is expansive and allows for empowering the part, which is the whole simultaneously. It is less distorted, in that duality of “us and them” is neither an issue or a reality. It’s possible to retain the uniqueness of a snowflake, while being all of the snow simultaneously. Of course, we’re the snow, the mountains, fire, air and beyond. Truth is, we’re in the perfect place in the perfect moment in every “now”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What makes the difference between comfort, drama, problems and harmony is a matter of moving away from the egoic-self, and releasing all that is not “real”, which is just about everything. How do we know what “to do” in any moment? By following our intuition, reading the “signs”, moving in synchronicity; most of all, following our desires and bliss regardless of circumstances, income or other’s opinions. Remember, we are “Masters of Limitation. We are not only in one of the “toughest schools in the Universe” for our own expansion and growth, but as future Ambassadors for other Galactic civilizations which have become “complacent” in their lack of polarity. Some advanced societies have become so accustomed to the manner in which manifestation occurs, automatically, that a great imbalance was created. The Creator, over eons, tried many different approaches to a “fix”. Many galaxies were completely eliminated and started “anew”. Yet, at the level of a “creator god”, having to destroy galaxies was the least desirable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus began the “isolation” or creation of a “higher density” in which the Creator could extract or harvest the cream of the crop, let’s say those aspects that were in a sense “fondly thought of”. Yes, this will upset many who claim that everything is equal, and on many levels this is quite true. Remember, with paradox, which is where we are living and moving towards, everything is “true”. So at some levels none are “greater or lesser than”, and on others, some aspects are considered with what could be interpreted as “fondness”. It’s how we eventually choose a very small group that we trust, enjoy spending time with, and want to “be around”. We’re learning to be Gurus of Diversity to expand into other Universes, Galaxies and systems, to teach. We do more than “bust them”, as the Pleiadians amusedly described our efforts; we are Ambassadors and teachers, on equal footing, yet not. Advanced civilizations, which have technology far beyond our present dreams, may greet us with a intolerance and resistance. Yet, here we are, at the “Creator’s request”, teaching how to create through transforming the very adversity which they have culled out over eons of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The New Kids on the Block&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will become a great challenge for those who choose to continue in this aspect of many aspects of service. How to gain the respect and trust of those so far ahead of us that we appear to them as baboons. We will have done the work, suffered the “hardships”, learned how creation works at the quantum levels, then must learn how to teach those we hold in awe. We have large challenges ahead, regardless of choices. This world seems to be tipping the scales in terms of challenges, but rest assured: planet earth at this time of transition is ascending and we are unique parts of this ascension. Not to worry; with full consciousness, memories and powers restored, there will be no problem fulfilling the vast nature of our being, as we already are “that”. As it was in the beginning, it shall be once more. We are the Alpha and the Omega. Begin to open to the possibility. Start acting and living “as if” there might be some truth here. I assure you, my friends, there is much more truth than I can begin to comprehend. Yet, it’s arriving, and right on schedule, as we designed. Trust your Selves, and follow your Bliss!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-7457208912721029553?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/7457208912721029553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=7457208912721029553' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7457208912721029553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7457208912721029553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/09/crossroads-and-transitions.html' title='Crossroads and Transitions'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SM1p7-e85EI/AAAAAAAAAR0/idUhhv_pD8o/s72-c/crossroads.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5961699774165586188</id><published>2008-09-04T20:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T21:19:20.058-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Tower of Babel Redux</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SMCtdzcddRI/AAAAAAAAARk/nxERsMywtdQ/s1600-h/DUBAIS+TOWER.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242380693796648210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SMCtdzcddRI/AAAAAAAAARk/nxERsMywtdQ/s400/DUBAIS+TOWER.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Midrash&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/rabbinic-literature"&gt;Rabbinic literature&lt;/a&gt; offers many different accounts of other causes for building the Tower of Babel, and of the intentions of its builders. It was regarded as a rebellion against God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God has no right to choose the upper world for Himself, and to leave the lower world to us; therefore we will build us a tower, with an idol on the top holding a sword, so that it may appear as if it intended to war with God".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some among that sinful generation even wanted to war against God in heaven. They were encouraged in this wild undertaking by the notion that arrows (star wars) which they shot into the sky fell back dripping with blood, so that the people really believed that they could wage war against the inhabitants of the heavens, the ETs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kabbalah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Tower was a functional flying craft, empowered by some powerful magic or technology; the device was originally intended for holy purposes, but was later misused in order to gain control over the whole world. The Tower builders had reached, or at least planned to reach the distance of 9-10 billion kilometers above the Earth surface, about the radius of the &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/solar-system"&gt;Solar System&lt;/a&gt;. The builders of the Tower planned to equip it with some shield technology ("shielding wings") and powerful weapons. Many Kabbalists believed that the ancient peoples possessed magic knowledge of the &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/nephilim"&gt;Nephilim&lt;/a&gt;, which allowed them to construct such powerful devices. Moreover, according to some commentaries, some &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/talmud"&gt;Talmudic&lt;/a&gt; sages possessed a manual for building such a flying tower.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These accounts coincide with &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/zecharia-sitchin"&gt;Zecharia Sitchin's&lt;/a&gt; speculations and the &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/ufology"&gt;ufological&lt;/a&gt; theories concerning the ancient Indian &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/topic/vimanam"&gt;vimanas&lt;/a&gt;. According to another mysterious Kabbalistic account, one third of the Tower builders were punished by turning into various semi-demonic creatures and banished into three parallel dimensions, inhabited now by their descendants. Are we those same “descendents”, and was that the “descent” from spirit into matter, or the metaphoric Hell?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Audacious &amp;amp; Outrageous: Space Elevators&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sept. 7, 2000 -- "Yes, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard NASA's Millennium-Two Space Elevator. Your first stop will be the Lunar-level platform before we continue on to the New Frontier Space Colony development. The entire ride will take about 5 hours, so sit back and enjoy the trip. As we rise, be sure to watch outside the window as the curvature of the Earth becomes visible and the sky changes from deep blue to black, truly one of the most breathtaking views you will ever see!" Does this sound like the Sci-Fi Channel or a chapter out of Arthur C. Clarke's, Fountains of Paradise? Well, it's not. It is a real possibility -- a "space elevator" -- that researchers are considering today as a far-out space transportation system for the next century.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome to the MultiDimensional World!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That man aspires to reach the heavens, to meet God, is a natural and inborn tendency. But what we are doing to the planet, part of All That Is, is unconscionable. In our quest for wealth and acquisition, our monuments to the god of money, demonstrate profound hubris and ignorance as a species.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps it’s an inevitable path for many of us to travel, that of pursuing great wealth and power for the sake of it. However, as Stewards of the planet, that path leads to excess and devastation of the worst kind. Without exploring the horrors created by those who create wars for wealth, pollute and destroy with no conscience, or who intentionally create death and disease for gain, let’s look at the damage to the planet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For every sparkling monument to vast wealth, such as the one being built in Dubais, millions of human beings had to give up their prosperity; and many must live lives of extreme poverty and starvation. This is the nature of building a pyramid. Every contrived “war” sucks the life blood out of all life.  The eye at the top “sees all, knows all” yet without a positive spiritual connection, operates without conscience. Unless we are able to make the connection between ALL life forms being woven together inextricably, we remain separated and unconscious of our own self-destruction. It’s truly magnificent to ride an elevator to the umpteenth floor of a Jetson’s-like building, to gaze out at the vast wealth displayed below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many people must die, how much of the ocean and planet must become unlivable, and how many humans must pay the dearest price of all, their freedom, for one sparkling tower to be built?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inherent in all we think, feel and do, the opposite resides, biding time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s the nature of third density, or “3D”, that balance is created in all events. This is referred to as the “Swing of the Pendulum”, a cosmic law. For us, it means that all our life's events, created by ourselves from within, create the opposite force which lurks as a potential reality. The “lowest of our lows”, descends into the dark night of the soul, and includes the potential reality of a swing to the heights. Those who reach “dizzying heights”, must face their own dark shadows lurking in the wings to descent, as in the myth of Icarus, who put wax on wings to ascend to the Heavens. As he got closer to the Source, or “heat”, the wax melted and Icarus fell. So too, those who have sequestered vast wealth and power at the expense of humanity, must eventually experience the opposite. If there are karmic laws in place, then karma must unravel to play itself out in time and space. None escape the effects of their own actions, be it thought, deed or heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rather than focusing on the obvious imbalance and seeming injustice going on in the world “out there”, we must retrain our focus. We are like a lighthouse beam seeking the lost ships on a turbulent sea. Spirituality 101 teaches that what we “fight” and resist with anger, becomes more solidified and “real” the greater our outrage. We are literally “mad at ourselves” for activities that are obviously distorted and self-destructive. As darker aspects of our Selves apply pressure to commit global genocide, it’s natural to react in shock, horror and rebelliousness. Time to transform anger and outrage into light.  This is where real Power resides.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is our soul responsibility to work out those battles within our Selves, not “out there” which is the mirror reflection, Maya. As we work on our shadow self, granting permission to see and release our own darkness, the world “out there” mirrors our own inner alignments. One by one, that is how it’s always been on the inner planes. This is a lone struggle in some ways, because each of us is “the One”. In that sense, we are all “Neos”, meaning New, but without the CON!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No sane person can look upon the path this world has chosen as a collective and not be utterly horrified. Yet, fear not!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember all things are known and have been prophesied; we are in the “end times”, spoke of for thousands of years by Hindu, Hopi, Mayan and mystical prophets. To date, the worst case scenarios of all prophecies have dramatically “softened” due to our vigilance in changing our Selves. If one person “awakens”, it’s the same as many millions. It takes ONE to shift the entire kit and caboodle. BE the ONE that you, I, and WE already ARE. It may sound trite, but we are the ones we’ve been waiting for. Granted, many of our multidimensional selves await in the wings, labeled “future”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As living representative of our future selves on the forefront, each is significant in tipping the scales of balance for the many “shifts” necessary. We are creating multitudes of minor and major alterations, like stairs. We take a step up, a step back, and we spiral up again slightly above where we “were”. In reality, we’re everywhere and everyone at Once. But that’s quantum physics, and I leave that to the scientifically minded.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For me, an “Abby Normal” human being, trying to be, it’s “One Day at a Time” raising my own vibration with each choice in every moment of the eternal Now. Kudos to you, to us together, for our courage, strength and heart as we help one another stir the flame of light within, thus guiding our “other selves”, safely to shore. Towers of Babel will fall, but our common tongue, which is our heart and soul speaking truthfully, prevail. Let the “crazy old world” come undone, as it must. By following our inner guidance, the path diverges from the mainstream, and we unite as the lower “falls away”. One “secret” to living is learning how to perceive and feel the beauty in life; look for the love, care and joy that cements us, soul to soul, world to world, galaxy to galaxy, “above and below”. Feel the tendrils of tenderness and love that surround us all. Hence, hugs and adoration to all… dark, light and “stuck in the middle”. We truly are but One.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Everyone’s got a big but, Dotty…” PeeWee Herman&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sacred Blessings,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5961699774165586188?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5961699774165586188/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5961699774165586188' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5961699774165586188'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5961699774165586188'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/09/tower-of-babel-redux.html' title='Tower of Babel Redux'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SMCtdzcddRI/AAAAAAAAARk/nxERsMywtdQ/s72-c/DUBAIS+TOWER.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-4652631530580200949</id><published>2008-08-19T09:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-19T20:32:27.297-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Hot Air Balloon</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SKuQA2lhuNI/AAAAAAAAARc/ASCJskn5Re0/s1600-h/HotAirBalloon.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236437336075647186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SKuQA2lhuNI/AAAAAAAAARc/ASCJskn5Re0/s400/HotAirBalloon.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;August 2008: Physical Energy Systems and Shifts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As of August 1st, our internal “energy systems” were reset to a higher frequency. The usual “ascension symptoms” are likely to be felt by &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;lightworkers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, in addition to an inability to adjust one’s own personal chemistry. We may be accustomed to taking various natural, chemical and “other” substances to create balance day to day. As of the first, many began noticing that “nothing is working”. Try as we may, adjusting a bit up or down of this and that substance, we are unable to go back to the comfort zones that were previously allowing us to be in our bodies. In addition, there might be a new “clumsiness” that has, or will, lead to small accidents which injure the body. Or, we may simply notice aches, pains and other bodily messages that we were unaware of before. This is part of the current tide we’re riding, and those who are not consciously aware of these processes, will find it increasingly difficult and negative “out there”. This is a new direction of anchoring within. Those who are unable or unwilling or just don’t know about it, will find problems increasing exponentially. Learn how to “be okay” with the way physical realms are manifesting, no matter what happens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another symptom of this period might be an impatience with world events, an intolerance for deception, manipulation and lies, anger and increased ability to intuitively penetrate to the core. It’s been suggested through &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Pleiadian&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; channeling decades ago, to turn off and unplug the television set and microwave. We &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;didn&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;’t have cell phones or &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;WIFI&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; then, but you can add those devices too. Right now, at this juncture, it’s vital that we eliminate as much “outer static” as possible, and get our news from within. Soon, we must learn how to “read” the vast ethereal and non-corporeal fields which inform us personally and as a collective. This is an effective way to develop the inner psychic senses; by listening within and following our own promptings. Mainstream news uses sophisticated methods of brainwashing, which goes directly to the subconscious mind, and continues to do its work there, “in the cover of darkness”. This is how &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;darkworkers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; operate; they are Masters of Manipulation. As we move towards heart-centered living, the normal barriers that would filter and remove the intensely negative and distorted messages is not in place. We are directly immersed into lower density duality with all its distortions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we “receive” in this manner, the switch to discover or tap into our own higher information gets turned “off”, as we are told we have what we “need to know“. But those who are awakening need to know truth in its entirety.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Few who are attempting to master Self resonate at a high enough frequency to block the enormous amount of dark energies embedded in simple messages. It is the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;egoic&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; mind which believes itself to be “able to distinguish”, but it too is part of the distortion. If the mind says, “Oh, I can handle that, I know what I’m doing and what the truth is…”, then know that you are not in your own mastery, but are at the effect of ego. The Master knows that it &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;doesn&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;’t know, and it also knows the value of protecting the Self and its higher bodies. Granted, we cannot wear blinders and bags over our heads, attempting to avoid all input! But to the extent possible, in our own private sanctuaries, we must create a safe space to just be. If you don’t have a special place where you can meditate, be alone or do nothing, it’s a good idea to carve one out as soon as possible. Some enjoy making altars with crystals, statuary and the like, but it can be as simple as a spot in your own back yard that is enclosed and private. The secret is to have space to yourself. Ingesting anything that is disturbing, even if the mind says that it’s valuable information, it’s wise to reply, “This can wait until later. I’m fine right now.” Put all fearful or “questionable” information on the back burner. The focus now is on spiritual balance, and maintaining equilibrium.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those having difficulty with diet, guilt over what kind of food is ingested, or other “&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;shoulds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;”, it’s more important to be able to move to a place of SELF ACCEPTANCE and NON JUDGMENT. Though it’s advisable to begin weaning oneself off of red meat for a mountain of reasons, it’s more important to live without guilt, worry, criticism or fear. It’s possible some will revisit substance abuse, with its attendant problems, and that’s fine too, as long as one knows the reason old patterns return is to review their lessons, let go and move onward. More important is learning how to forgive and love yourself NO MATTER WHAT. We chose the lessons we came in with, and picked up quite a few along the way. Don’t get stuck in the small stuff, because it’s ALL small stuff! We are in and on the verge of so many shifts and major alterations in realities that, like the toy which is shaped like a beach ball at the bottom, we simply don’t have time to be toppled, and must instantly bounce back UP. The swing of the pendulum, with all its dramas, is best left outside one’s doorstep, literally and figuratively.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The subject of relationships is huge, but at this time it’s crucial to distance ourselves from all toxic relationships, be they familial, work, intimate or friends. Continue removing anyone and everything that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;doesn&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;’t serve you, or which causes distractions or grief, unless it is within the context of a loving, committed soul relationship where open communication already exists. Allow and permit as much “down time” as possible. Try something “foolish” like running around naked while fixing breakfast. By continuing to peel away the layers, we will discover that old beliefs and attitudes are like wearing cement shoes. In any moment, we can hop in the basket of our own hot air balloon, and feel ourselves rising to any occasion. It’s a matter of dropping the sand bags that hold us down. That’s why it’s called ascension; letting go of illusion allows what‘s Real to rise, and the awesome vista from a higher perspective is truly breathtaking!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy the process, the ride, every moment of now as now IS our final destination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-4652631530580200949?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/4652631530580200949/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=4652631530580200949' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4652631530580200949'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4652631530580200949'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/08/hot-air-balloon.html' title='The Hot Air Balloon'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SKuQA2lhuNI/AAAAAAAAARc/ASCJskn5Re0/s72-c/HotAirBalloon.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-2979162520885084269</id><published>2008-08-03T11:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-03T11:16:15.110-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Pearl of Great Price</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SJX1yOL0DnI/AAAAAAAAARU/poxqTUT7IzA/s1600-h/Pearl1.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5230356785410608754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SJX1yOL0DnI/AAAAAAAAARU/poxqTUT7IzA/s400/Pearl1.jpeg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Pearl - is a hard, rounded object produced by mollusks such as pearl oysters. Natural pearls are formed when an irritant becomes lodged in a pearl oyster, and gets coated with a natural secretion of calcium carbonate called nacre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Man cannot do. We are asleep. Before we can do, we must awaken." G.I. Gurdjieff&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a key element of Fourth Way teachings. The essence is that we are not fully conscious now; yet because we think we are, the attainment of it eludes us. The Fourth Way is a prep school for the Fifth Way or World or "root race" which is arriving now. If you like to make connections, you could say that the Fourth and Fifth "Ways" are analogous to the 4th and 5th densities. We presently reside mainly in the Third, vacillating in and out of 4th. Awakening cosmic consciousness is about the steps after we regain Full Consciousness. This is the only Real attainment, which is also an unexpected gift. Accumulating material goods is a waste of time from spirit's viewpoint. The compass is the Heart "Chakra" or Center, and it is our guide, compass and fuel. The excitement of the journey is in the moment, slightly ahead of us now. As far as I can tell, we as a group, meaning all those who are in the awakening process, are about to regain Full Consciousness. It will be restored as a passage or Rainbow Bridge to the 5th World. Some refer to the 5th world as Nirvana or Heaven on Earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason why it's "harder for a rich man to enter the kingdom of Heaven that to pass through the eye of a needle", is that the acquisition of vast wealth is a distortion of our original blueprint to reunite with The Infinite Light. Though incredible artwork, architecture and musical instruments vibrate at a high resonance, those who attempt to own or possess them, hoarding and depriving others, are mistakenly attempting to play God. Reuniting is not possible unless the heart is pure, and selfishness or "service to self" requires almost total commitment. The essence of gold is an internal alchemical process, not something to buy and hoard. Remember the "Fairy Tales" where only the purest of heart could save the world? We can restore that purity, and must do it ourselves. It requires diligence at the quantum level; mainly, raising awareness of thoughts and emotions. Once we begin to make the effort to tell the truth as we understand it, beginning with ourselves, keep our word, raise integrity, and help others freely, magical connections or wiring is completed within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those connections are to a Higher Emotional and Intellectual "Center". This is fairly close to describing real states of consciousness or being. When the right and left halves of the "brain", which is a cosmic communications and filtering device, are balanced, the DNA switch goes to "ON" for all DNA inside us; there is no "junk" DNA. We already use most of our "brain" but the codons are not switched on yet, removing the filters or veils. When they are, we connect to higher states of being already existing within. The "first step" is to know we are not actually conscious now, but have come to imagine ourselves as such. To attain our natural state, which is Full Consciousness, we must let go of our imaginary state in which we think we already are. And this in turn requires some work on teaching our "egos" or false personalities their true position in the scheme of things. Presently for most people, ego and personality are in the driver's seat. There's no need to destroy, eliminate or remove ego. It's not possible or advisable and it has a purpose. That purpose requires someone to be home and fully present inside, which relates to becoming fully conscious. This is our natural state of being which is becoming restored like a beautiful Stradivarius. We are learning how to play our Selves! It begins with creating the Observer and watching from an objective, impersonal point of view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you prefer to be a Rolls Royce, Bentley or Mona Lisa, that's fine too! Work on switching DNA codons on and off doesn't require a magic wand, or someone else to "activate them" for us. It's a natural result of learning how to play the notes of our own instrument properly, and practicing daily as if we were training for the Olympics. This is a convenient analogy, since the Olympics are arriving at a propitious moment: The August 8, 2008 portal. This date signifies an opening. It is an opportunity to unite the yin and the yang, East and West, right and left brain, male and female, and so on. Unity transcends or trumps duality. It's also the Infinity sign, which symbolizes eternity and higher awareness, among other things. Spirit is everywhere within the figure eight, and we will be able to locate ourselves at any point through focus and intent. Symbols can mean anything we want. Some like to label everything first, and get credit for being clever, but things in themselves don't really care and find cosmic humor at our attempts to puff ourselves up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This story, his and her story, is about waking up. We are moving out of our deep coma or 4.5 billion year hibernation, and like the bear who remains alive, yet dormant, all of us are Sleeping Beauties destined to awaken as a unified whole. We are one gigantic tapestry rising above earth with gold and silver threads, all one piece yet each thread serving a different purpose, ever-changing. It's the Never-ending Story. Once we crystallize in the Full Consciousness of 4th density, we can springboard into the various quantum fields. Some label the vacuum as genius, immortality, heaven, Nirvana, which begin in the 4th and 5th density and above. We will never have to return to duality, 3D, or any of the associated strife that accompanies lower vibrations, if that is our choice. No matter how high an earthly object vibrates, it still resides in the lower density range of the 3rd. What we are attempting to acquire permanently cannot be seen with the physical eyes. We can see with our dormant pineal glands, or Third Eye. Reality is not OF this world, so those who vainly attempt to accumulate the riches of this world, are digging their own graves in relation to higher realms. Everyone has freedom to choose. The most valuable and priceless pearl is not visible and cannot be bought. It is the Pearl of Great Price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what if a man gains the world, but loses his soul?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This statement resonates from higher realms. Like many simple stories it's passed on with layers of conscious meaning for those with eyes and ears. Information from a higher realm must have life breathed into it to be communicated with the Light that was shining from it originally. We are the channels of Light which imbue luminosity to all things. The light travels through multiple channels. Take the story about Aladdin's Lamp. The lamp must be rubbed first before the genie emerges from the smoke to grant 3 wishes. Those represent the first 3 densities we must Master before we can fully engage the 4th, 5th and higher. They also represent the 3 forces, which are necessary to complete any action. Smoke represents illusion and distortion, the "confusion being a high state", which ultimately brings magic. All must pass through the smoke and persevere for the Magic to arrive. Some people stop at a certain point in their path when they are admired because each word that contains an atom of higher energy ends up immortalized and institutionalized as if IT were the thing of great value. It is the energy transmitted through the channel, the conduit, which counts; not the words. Higher energy must be transmitted through living systems, and we are those systems… "You will do this and much more". The closer we align to our Selves, communicating with our own Highest Information, we expand exponentially. It is the narrow Way because it is invisible and unforgiving; it IS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sacred texts and scrolls are inspirational, but are not the Real Thing; they are "leftovers" or representations that can inspire us to seek the Source directly. The Reality behind all things can only be transmitted one on one, meaning "where two or more are gathered". We can prepare ourselves for the Master, then must wait patiently for the Gift. Intent, desire and effort create the diamond within, which we already are. Many contain a lump of coal, yet all are "potential diamonds". Others are partially formed "diamonds in the rough". We can aspire to cut our own diamond within, and we must. No one else can do this part for us. It's a safeguard for not being fully prepared to enter realms which are too energetically "high". A mismatch of energies can damage the essence or soul within. No loving or intelligent Creator, if you choose to believe in one, would create a new spark of life from itself, force it to be humiliated, make mistakes, and end up self-destructing. What happens to us happens to the Creator. Even the worst parents can do better than that, so why wouldn't a powerful Creator do vastly better? It is we who move ourselves closer to or further away from our own cosmic evolution, and there is no one else to blame. Blame's a game for ego, as is playing victim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The key is consciousness. All activities in 3D are part of and created by and within, the illusion itself. We cannot escape from the illusion by acquiring more of it. If we choose to continue our upward and inward journeys, material acquisitions take us in the wrong direction. Material acquisitions can include relationships, education and spiritual knowledge. More important is raising awareness and consciousness, in preparation for the gift of life, which is the breath of Higher Centers, dormant in each soul, waiting for us to realize our own Higher Selves. Those "Selves" already exist, long before any of the individual sparks we call our lives, wherever they occur throughout multiple dimensions and realities. We ARE the "aliens" who are visiting us now. We ARE our enemies. We ARE the stars above us. We are All That Is, and combined we ARE the Creator! It's an infinite journey, like the figure eight, in a kind of game which is happening simultaneously yet separated by various chasms of time and space. The journey has many crossing points, and one of the biggies is right in the middle. Ever wonder what's behind the point where the 8 crosses itself?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I won't spoil the fun by telling you what I think! You can create the magic for yourself, by finding your own solution to all the questions to which the answers are "just around the bend…" Remember the excitement of going around the bend just to see what's there? Well, we're about to find out! Be patient, relax, let go; go with the flow. Enjoy life and be happy. Keep the vibrations high! It's the only Real choice we have. Each of us has value beyond our wildest imagination and is "protected from on high". We are always safe and need not fear. When in doubt, remember that you are never alone, and don't forget to ask for help. Only a fool is too proud to ask.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-2979162520885084269?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/2979162520885084269/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=2979162520885084269' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2979162520885084269'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2979162520885084269'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/08/pearl-of-great-price.html' title='The Pearl of Great Price'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SJX1yOL0DnI/AAAAAAAAARU/poxqTUT7IzA/s72-c/Pearl1.jpeg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5356832699135251692</id><published>2008-07-27T13:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-27T14:24:47.461-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Discovering the Red Carpet of Synchronicity</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIzkFeaBeLI/AAAAAAAAARM/BGJsoj-xFs0/s1600-h/red+carpet.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5227804050182994098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIzkFeaBeLI/AAAAAAAAARM/BGJsoj-xFs0/s400/red+carpet.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We are in a period of great flux which has the potential to bode well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we do not turn our attention away from bread and circuses, which keep us occupied and enslaved in eternal consumption, drugs, alcohol, sex, violence and hypnotic "entertainment", we may make the same mistake that's been made other times in our history. In times past, such as Atlantis, this has given a few at the top an advantage. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Selfishness, which is a total commitment to service to self, leads society to where we are now: facing extinction. The good news is that the military-industrial complex is already dead and crumbling. There is no room in the New Earth for wars, disease, deception, distortion or control. Those who incite and precipitate such activities are already doomed to failure. Where will it all go? Who cares? Leave the dead to bury the dead. This is why it's not necessary to focus on such matters; in fact, focusing on the actions of a corrupt elite lowers one's energy and attracts more density to us. What we CAN do is alter our perception and change the "assemblage point" from which we view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is nothing "new" about this information; for the most part, it's "preaching to the choir". But here's the point: we are very much like a compass. Imagine a compass, the kind on a car dash, made of plastic with a floating piece marked with the four directions. As the car turns, the alignments move to reflect the direction. We identify with the plastic covering, our bodies, and have become mesmerized with its appearance. The direction continues to shift and change, but for the most part we are unaware of our true direction and path. Underlying life as we know it is a growing malaise, a creeping angst and discontent. It's as if something is wrong, very wrong, but you can't put your finger on it. No one is home, and we long to awaken; it is our birthright, but we must "finish the job". A realignment or shift to the inner workings, the four directions, a 365 degree turn within our Selves, realigns us with our own spirit and purpose. Once that choice is made, it's easier to know where we're going, and how to steer our car, (life) in a harmonious direction. This alignment is different for each soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We Are Facing Many Crossroads&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All things work best in alignment, be it automotive for cars, chiropractic for bones, or invisible regarding spirit or soul. Once we make the "inner turn", away from the appearance of chaos, control and destruction and move towards our own joy and purpose, the Universe rolls out its Synchronistic Red Carpet. No need to go to a seminar, chant or bang drums, unless you want to. One need only observe what the universe presents in one's own life to move into alignment with true North, one's own internal connection to Source. That place has been likened to the calm in the eye of the tornado. A rose is still a rose no matter what language one uses, and beyond the labels, the still point just IS. We just ARE. All the labels and beliefs are window dressing, which we use to reassure ourselves that life has meaning. Beliefs are not required for direction and purpose. We chose our direction(s) prior to incarnating, allowing for many choices, similar to a branching tree. One choice leads one direction, while another takes us somewhere else. In that instant of enlightenment, everything changes yet everything remains the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Making Choices&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once we align with our own "inner compass", there is a sense of connectedness and direction. Growing awareness reminds us to make small, medium or large "course corrections". When in doubt, just look in this moment at what is presenting itself in the NOW, and choose. It becomes obvious when we choose something that's in a lower frequency by how we feel. If a course of action leads us to feel fatigued, guilty or confused, then take a closer look at how that is wired within, discover the "payoff", and make a new choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New choices empower us by building bridges of neurons within the brain. Everything is energy. We have spent too much time building bridges to nowhere, spending our spiritual capital. It is a blow to ego to admit making poor choices, but we empower ourselves by recognizing our mistakes and by not repeating them. That is the "inner work". Most is work on recognizing "ego", or veneer and letting go of it. Veneer falls away rapidly, and we strive towards BEing the reality, not the appearance. There is only so much vital "energy" to use for awakening. If we are busy with foolish nonsense, our energy goes outward and is consumed. There isn't enough for our inner growth. Awakening is a practical matter that requires attention, intention and awareness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each soulflake is in a different "place"; some are not ready to face unpleasant truths, and that's fine. We approach many crossroads when we all will face our own demons, angels and gods. That which is real endures. If one stops to ponder what really mattered in life, it's likely to be the loving moments; one's first love, the love of family members or friends, and those special moments which can only arise when life bonds in the heart. We are all connected at the heart and the hip, and what one does, affects us all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every person is a vital and invaluable contribution to the whole. Until the veils are lifted from our eyes, we navigate intuitively by listening within, aligning with our inner compass, and following our heart's direction. Each moment presents an opportunity to choose the "high road". Eventually, the low road disappears from view.  No road is better than another, but if the goal is climbing to the top of a hill, then walking down is contrary to that goal. It takes longer when we dally, but eventually one reaches the top. If there was a pot of gold sitting there waiting, would we dally? This is how it really is. WE are the pot of gold we are reclaiming, but we must rise to the occasion, and the moment is always "NOW".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Journeying!&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5356832699135251692?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5356832699135251692/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5356832699135251692' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5356832699135251692'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5356832699135251692'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/07/discovering-red-carpet-of-synchronicity.html' title='Discovering the Red Carpet of Synchronicity'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIzkFeaBeLI/AAAAAAAAARM/BGJsoj-xFs0/s72-c/red+carpet.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5096908722870412053</id><published>2008-07-20T13:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-20T13:24:42.374-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Box</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIOe6K_OJSI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/2mavvm1RCys/s1600-h/Puzzle+BOX.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225194714899031330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIOe6K_OJSI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/2mavvm1RCys/s400/Puzzle+BOX.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Anyone awakening to the myriad truths behind world events, is going to pull back the curtain to discover not a kindly befuddled old Wizard of Oz, but Darth Vader! I see the hand of darkness in every major world event, and once you begin to weave the tapestry together, it never appears quite the same. This is a result of opening Pandora's Box. I suggest moving as quickly as possible to a place of objectivity, calm and centeredness within before opening your own version of "The Box". For instance, we see the Federal Reserve, which is neither Federal nor a reserve, attempting to expand its powers exponentially. US government may take over faltering Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The neocon plan to bankrupt America (in the manner as the same ilk bankrupted the Soviet Union and Russian Federation) takes another dramatic step. The Fed prints money nonstop and siphons funds into government, corporate and bankster friend's pockets, while we, the sheeple, repeatedly have the wool pulled over our eyes, and are distracted. The last time the Controllers, the Elite, made a major play with our money was to create the Great Depression for personal profit and control. It worked before, so…hit Repeat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Millions of Americans lost life savings and lived at poverty level so that a few moneyed elite could line their pockets buying up the assets of major corporations on Wall Street, for pennies on the dollar. They also bought more members of the Senate and House, and rammed through the legislation to begin the Federal Reserve which, rightly, our government had fought. Everyone has their price; our Senate and House are the Wal-Mart of "trinkets" for sale to global interests. Those who can't be bought CAN be blackmailed. Yes, there are a token few who are not part of the "in crowd", which is simply smoke and mirrors. According to Bill Moyers, a secret government has mushroomed in the United States. Let's face facts: the game has been, and is rigged, and this is how it "must be" prophetically. Everything is "classified" these days, even ordering office supplies. Classified for "national security" is synonymous with "embarrassing" and means, "This is something we shouldn't be DOING." When you see the word WAR, think: "Money Making Scam", and follow the money. Someone is profiting royally, from BOTH sides; Google Prescott Bush. Perpetual war sounds like Big Oil gushing to my ears. Or is that, "Pig Oil"? Snake oil is more like it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So in one stroke of cleverness, by putting aside differences, a few extremely wealthy men created vast empires that would take over the entire globe. When you control the printing presses, imagine what you could do with no scruples, without care about people starving in the streets homeless, death or deformities. They also create wars and altercations for resources, funding both sides to take full advantage of the profits. This same elite has poised itself for the next big haul: America and the WORLD. It's an old game that anyone who has read the books by Ian Fleming knows: Bond, James Bond. Mr. Fleming wrote those books, reflections of actual events and people, starting in 1953. Goldfinger, Dr. No, Moonraker or the other films part of the longest running "franchise" ever, portray the fine line between good and evil, with charming evil characters. One can almost see their perverse world views as legitimate. But that's only if you are on their side; most often, humanity is to be exterminated. The present-day elite have plans that have been on drawing boards for decades for global genocide. Many are in operation today. A few include chemtrails, aspartame, AIDS, nanobacteria, pandemics, GM foods, Big Pharma, WWIII, Depleted Uranium, HAARP, microwaves, cell phones and fluoridation. The biggest one is FEAR. There is no war on terror: they are throwing gasoline on the fire and fanning the flames of fear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alex Jones, who runs the site Prison Planet, has been exposing some of these plans through writing, film, TV and radio. One of his movies is called ENDGAME. If you have the stomach to find out what's happening in the realm of the controllers, watch it. So, here we are again: a dumbed down Amerika, ignorant of the real powers and manipulations behind the scenes; and how could we be aware when the MM, or Mainstream Media, is controlled and censored? We do not get the truth; rather, a highly sanitized and propagandized version, steering us like cattle into the slaughter house. We get "the games", football, baseball, car races and American Idol. To the elite, we are herds to be tracked, tagged and controlled; "milked" for energy, money, property and sex, like the Matrix Trilogy. This is a basic repetition or spiral of Atlantean days, arising out of the sea of forgetfulness to be healed and transcended; IF we wake up and remember in time. The key is waking up and remembering ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What's Real?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Children have become so divorced from the outdoors that they are more likely to recognize fictitious Dr Who monsters like the Daleks than real life animals such as a barn owl, a survey has revealed. The online questionnaire for the National Trust found just 53 per cent of youngsters could correctly identify an oak leaf, while half could not tell the difference between a bee and a wasp. One in three children failed to identify a magpie and only 47 per cent correctly named a barn owl. In contrast nine out of 10 were able to correctly name Doctor Who's enemies the Daleks and a similar number recognized Star Wars' Jedi grand master, Yoda. Most of us are so wrapped up in our own maze of survival and escape from reality that anything which infringes upon it is considered a "hostile attack" to our imbalanced imaginary worlds. Humanity has, for the most part, disconnected from the real sources of power and nourishment and we know it, even if it is a vague malaise. We are what we eat, and we're very good at doing what we're told.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doing what we're told is literally beaten into us from birth, and we never quite knock it back out. The ravages of "following your elders" and doing as we're told, haunts everyone. We are losing, if we ever had it, the ability to cognize and think for ourselves. Thought patterns deemed "permissible" according to "society" are mapped out and we are jerked by the collar and dragged down various mazes deemed "acceptable". Even sexuality is controlled by demonizing it and creating false proclamations "from God". The problem with this is obvious: a few radical views can permeate all of reality and force it down a narrow and destructive path with an exponential loss of freedom. We are spirit having a human experience and were not designed to be controlled and manipulated. This cycle of time which repeats itself like clockwork, is reaching a crescendo when each soul on the planet will be faced with multiple choices. Fortunately, there are no failures, and all "win" by being true to our own nature, to our Selves. The easiest way to win is by developing intuitive trust for our own highest information and guidance, and following it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To Thine Own Self Be True&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William Shakespeare's character states: "This above all: to thine own self be true." He also admonishes in the same stanza, "neither a borrower nor a lender be". We can see the results of not following this sage advice from ages past. Even Jesus turned over the tables of the money lenders. Yet "money lenders", the world bankers, own and control the entire globe today. Ultimately, few will be able to get "money", food, water or air, without an ID card. This will be another step in automating this global empire, or "new world order". Under cover of black operations, technology exists beyond our wildest imaginations. If you can think it, it's already been created and exists. There are ships which travel beyond light speed, visiting bases on other planets. Hundreds of multi-level underground cities, ET presence, back-engineered space craft, teleportation, time travel and so on. Weather, food and water have been weaponized. Healthy air is "gone", not from noxious car exhausts, but due to chemtrails sprayed overhead for decades. There is rarely a clear or blue sky; we now see a haze of criss cross patterns overhead, ignoring what is under our noses and right there for all to see. This is a documented global military operation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are made from finer stuff than that which the material realms are spun from. True, matter and spirit are intertwined and inseparable; at least until death. Yet, there is a divine or etheric component residing within each soul, heart and each mind and we are all united at the level of heart. In a sense, we're "gods in training". This earthly realm is a school of materiality and time, which provides a holographic ILLUSION so overwhelmingly real, that we FORGET ourselves. We forget we are spiritual beings which infuse our souls into a material body around birth, for the experience and contribution we can make to all humanity. Just as there are "controllers", there are magnificent beings of Light and, yes, love; some incarnate, while others work from invisible realms to wisely guide us on our paths. Each is on both a unique and "shared paths" during this evolutionary jump. In fact, earth and its residents, humanity, are about ready to lift off and transform into the butterfly that we truly are. This is our real nature, and we are preparing to step up to the plate and make that leap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;100th Monkey Theory&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This brings us Full Circle to the spiritual bridge that must be crossed, by those who choose to make it to the "other side", beyond duality, beyond control and negativity, disease, corruption, violence, wars, etc. These are all "symptoms" of a three dimensional world that is caught in duality. It's now possible, today, right here, to move beyond that duality within ourselves, and in this manner we step OUT of the Matrix of control. We will always be in a matrix of some kind, but a matrix of sacred geometry is more real and fulfilling than one of chaos and stagnation. One represents freedom of spirit, while the other is a life of indentured servitude. Everything is a matter of choice, and we do have the freedom to choose, or "re-choose" if our choices no longer empower us. There are no victims, because at our core we're all one energy or consciousness, that has been playing a game of unconsciousness and fragmentation in many fields of duality. As our field expands, opening new possibilities of Being, we can open our minds and hearts to include one another, and experience directly All That Is. Regardless of what's said above, which focuses on distortions of divine energies and higher dimension peeking through, we must rise above the fray. Why? Because "this too shall pass", and quickly. Time will tell if we've taken the High Road, or a road that's familiar and comfortable. Just for today, it feels comfortable on the road less traveled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5096908722870412053?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5096908722870412053/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5096908722870412053' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5096908722870412053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5096908722870412053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/07/box.html' title='The Box'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SIOe6K_OJSI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/2mavvm1RCys/s72-c/Puzzle+BOX.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-1647980989521912509</id><published>2008-07-10T17:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-10T18:01:57.001-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SPOOKY, POSSUMS!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SHatC7vS9GI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/UFdqMGHzfr4/s1600-h/Dame+EDNA.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221551083890078818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SHatC7vS9GI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/UFdqMGHzfr4/s400/Dame+EDNA.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Notice the look of terror in Dame Edna's face. See the fear. No, it's not because her panty hose just snagged, and it's not because Dolph Lungren didn't return her calls. On the monitor in her palatial palace, someone had posted an underground picture of President Bush… &lt;a href="http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/archives/2008/06/jesus_and_george_bush_arrested_naked_/"&gt;NAKED&lt;/a&gt;! Such is the power of the internet to entertain, inform and revolt!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It didn't help one iota that her stock in Australian Wallaby Purse futures had plummeted. Nor was it particularly gleeful when she saw fatty Arbuckle &lt;a href="http://emptywheel.firedoglake.com/2008/06/20/scott-mcclellan-testimony-the-recap/"&gt;Karl Marx Rove&lt;/a&gt;, lie and slander someone new on FOX-in-the-henhouse "spews". More like the scrapings off the poopie scooper and cat box solids. Why just yesterday, a rumor that Nancy Pelosi was trying to block Conyers from holding Rove in contempt swept across the blogosphere. People were up in arms, with numerous calls for Congressional phone lines to be clogged with protest and rebuke. The trouble is, &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/09/pelosi-not-trying-to-bloc_n_111673.html"&gt;the rumor wasn't true&lt;/a&gt;. It's a reminder that as we rightly laud the ability of the Internet to galvanize citizens, and as we figure out the new rules of engagement, we don't toss out some of the old rules that have served us so well. Such as picking up the phone and calling the subject of the rumor. Or the subject's press secretary. Which is how the Pelosi rumor was finally -- and easily -- killed. No, not Rove!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lest we dip into a droll &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-RdAzkKlXY"&gt;Bette Davis &lt;/a&gt;romantic sentimentality about the "way things WERE" before evil empires, rotten Republicans and &lt;a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5206291362863434922&amp;amp;q=Bilderberg"&gt;Build A Burgers&lt;/a&gt; with limburger cheese, let's move to the REAL reasons Dearest Dame is frightened. First, she's quite savvy when it comes to Mother Earth and nature. She took those margarine commercials seriously when they scolded, "It's not SMART to fool mother nature…" She is anything but "not smart"…get it? Maxwell did. And, when someone ate a glob of yellow gold and a glittering crown lit on their heads, her tired old eyeballs popped out of their sockets. Sold. No more wire coat hangers or cheap margarine! I'm stepping up to Imperial. No, not the margarine silly, to the Imperial Home of Her Gracious Majesty, the REAL Queen, where Dame was being entertained by one of the royal court for tea. It seems the Queen was indirectly pumping her (don't let your vivid imagination run away with you now, chides Miss Manners), for information about a "private subject" that we cannot mention here. NOW you can fill in the "blanks", if you catch my midriff. Let's just say it had something to do with synthetic rubber products…for the KITCHEN, silly Willy! "Oh, that crazy reptilian royal family", smiles &lt;a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2912878405399014351"&gt;David Icke&lt;/a&gt; fondly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dame had just watched the new/old movie with Mr. Gore on global warming. In addition to his groundbreaking and award winning work on the global warming situation, he also is a man of taste. Or was it global cooling? It may have been global micro waving, if the &lt;a href="http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/pandora/haarp.html"&gt;HAARPists in Alaska&lt;/a&gt; sing their disharmonious tunes. He also made a private film for the elite called, &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/science/06/24/globalwarming.ap/"&gt;Global Toast Warming&lt;/a&gt;. You see, he DOES pay attention to &lt;a href="http://gaygamer.net/2006/12/miss_manners_says_lifesaving_g.html"&gt;Miss Manners&lt;/a&gt;, as should we-all. Forget reading that dusty old mothballed book of cobwebs and Machiavellian corruption, commonly referred to as (sssh - the bible). One need only read the latest etiquette to elucidate every situation; no need for those pesky ten commandments! Miss Manners covers all bases, with equanimity and style. She would probably recommend that arguments over religion should take place only in filthy bathrooms, where scum and lowlife hang out; certainly not in "polite society". If you don't take a cotton to Miss Manners, you might find respite in the busty bosom of America's BEST Christian, &lt;a href="http://www.bettybowers.com/"&gt;Betty Bowers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But we're not here to discuss religion. That's a tired old subject that needs a complete overhaul like &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3rrTOe0XxA"&gt;Tallulah Bankhead's face&lt;/a&gt; after a night of cocktails and "Oh Dahwlings…". Until that occurs, we aren't interested. I use the proverbial "we", to signify all who are sick and tired of the rising rhetoric thrown about like an alcoholic spewing vomit from too many years of self-abuse and heretical hypocrisy. Let us return to the problems "in hand". Dame is very concerned about a crazy "time monk" who has developed a system of telling the near future, based upon enormous scans of Internet Memes. They truly create "Meme Magic". This concern revolves around an impending "event" around October 2008. Never mind that her Mayan friends sent a Blackberry saying that November 2008 signals the end of the "5th Night" which presages the commencement of the "6th Day". More on that later. Maybe. Blackberrys have thorns. Ouch!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it's the silly old stock market you're worried about, relax, Possums. Chief time monk Cliff at &lt;a href="http://www.halfpasthuman.com/"&gt;HalfPastHuman &lt;/a&gt;doesn't see the kind of emotional impact and carry values that would likely accompany a Dow 7,400 till fall. It's that kind of level that comes along in the market destruction which seems to be painted, like &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1QmhRRcT64&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Joan Crawford's&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.moviediva.com/MDJr_root/MDjr/MDjrWomen.htm"&gt;Jungle Red&lt;/a&gt; nails, for October of this year and through the winter of 2008/2009. As far as what that may be like think about this: Emotionally, just as we had about six days of gut wrenching emotions/charged humans in the wake of &lt;a href="http://www.911truth.org/"&gt;9/11&lt;/a&gt;, whatever is coming this fall looks like 3-4 months of that kind of emotional 'release'. So, we might as well start wrapping our heads around that possibility now so as not to be shocked into inaction by the enormity of what's coming. Oh Dear; what could THAT be? Another &lt;a href="http://digg.com/political_opinion/Former_Reagan_Official_Bush_May_Stage_False_Flag_Events_To_Reinstate_Draft"&gt;false flag event&lt;/a&gt;, perhaps? There we go, foaming at the mouth like Joan Rivers with a mouthful of Hydrogen Peroxide to clean those pearly whites after oral sex with her lesbian gardener, Miss Rita.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If that doesn't disgust you, this is certain to grab your dentures and yank 'em out: &lt;a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/sns-ap-foreclosure-rates,0,6229726.story"&gt;US foreclosures up 53 percent in June.&lt;/a&gt; Americans going homeless as Republicans and Democrats in Congress (that sorry lot of backstabbers and poltroons) ignore economic mess. It's time to dump "Casino Harry" Reid and the old Baltimore Harbor trollop Pelosi from the leadership and fast. &lt;a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&amp;amp;sid=a7NPAG.LEjHQ&amp;amp;refer=home"&gt;Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac face financial collapse&lt;/a&gt;. Another sign that US is facing economic depression. Speaking of "depression", have you taken your Prozac today? Personally, I prefer Wellbutrin; but, as Shakespeare once said, though he had NO idea it would be in reference to anti-depressants, "What's in a name?" He'd be rolling over in his grave if he knew what we've done to language. Don't axe. I ain't telling! But, and you didn't hear this from me, dear reader, on the market: &lt;a href="http://www.urbansurvival.com/"&gt;S E L L!!!&lt;/a&gt; Head for them thar' hills pockets full of posies and gold and silver coins and bullion. Have a nice, long cup o bouillon, in fact. And pay off those credit (debt) cards - NOW!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dame-edna.com/"&gt;Dame Edna&lt;/a&gt; has decided that with all the fuss about the economy, &lt;a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4799447112501062338&amp;amp;q=4799447112501062338&amp;amp;ei=aqJzSKXlE5SK2wLd6JGoAQ"&gt;Big Brother&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.reclaimdemocracy.org/"&gt;corruption&lt;/a&gt; in the bored room, the &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PpMdTmVMpo"&gt;N.W.O.&lt;/a&gt; and whether or not &lt;a href="http:///"&gt;McCain soils&lt;/a&gt; his undies at the tella prompter, it's much wiser to be concerned about the following: what color nail polish to wear, which blue tint looks best on her hair, and lastly, where on earth to find the next pair of outrageous faux rhinestone glasses. Frankly, upon reviewing all the world's ills, and how we're all in a big rubber lifeboat paddling as fast as possible away from the Titanic, our rubber duckies are not all in a row as we argue about Cocoa Puffs or &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToeY7MkCm0c"&gt;Billy&lt;/a&gt; and American Idol. In fact, we're headed for Niagara Falls with the pedal to the medal in our gas guzzling American Dream: &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lS_UXQSfbwk&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;HUMMERS&lt;/a&gt;. I'm shifting MY concerns away from pesky pollution problems, food, water and oil shortages, global warming/cooling/micro waving and &lt;a href="http://www.carnicom.com/contrails.htm"&gt;chemtrails&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=bees+disappearing&amp;amp;rls=com.microsoft:en-us&amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;amp;oe=UTF-8&amp;amp;startIndex=&amp;amp;startPage=1"&gt;bees playing hide and seek&lt;/a&gt;, to how many episodes of &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cZvuPZlZMQ"&gt;Desperate Housewives&lt;/a&gt; I can watch in one day.

I've been reading his books on Sacred Geometry over the years, and always felt a resonant chord being plucked. But it is his recent book, Serpent of Light Beyond 2012 that altered my way of thinking forever. I cannot do it justice, but will say that it's not what you think it's going to be. From the cover, it's about "The movement of the Earth's Kundalini and the rise of the female light, 1949 to 2013". What I had no clue about is Drunvalo's amazing metaphysical experiences with various shamans and elders from Hopi to present-day Mayans. Nor was I aware of the mystical nature of what he is here to do, and has accomplished, while remaining without ego or desire for attention. In particular, he sheds a great deal of light on the current window we're in, leading up to 2012 and beyond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've had some time to muddle through the 2012 maze. Present day Mayan elders and shamans include over 440 tribes. The elders elect one spokesperson, and that person has been placed in an advisory capacity for the Guatemalan government, whose new president is part Mayan. This is the direction, the leading edge, which is beginning to surface in preparation for massive changes. In fact, present day Mayans, who have continued their traditions and remember events as far back as 26,000 years ago, are now coming forward with their own interpretation of history. They will be writing, over the next two years, about the truth as seen through their eyes; this will include new prophecies to prepare their own people, as well as humanity in general. The most prominent event which Drunvalo was allowed to speak about is that there will be both a magnetic and a physical Pole Shift. Those who are able to grow their own food, if even in a small back yard or condo deck, might be wise to begin that process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The "magic date", say the Mayan elders, is not a specific day, but a WINDOW. This window opened at the time of the Blue Star Kachina, around October 24, 2007, and will remain open for about 7 years, closing in 2015. William Henry refers to these openings as "Stargates". During these stargates, a pole shift will occur. This event will last around 20 hours, one full day. People will go to sleep at night on one side of the planet, and wake up to some dramatic events. It's likely that no buildings will be left standing, from the massive upheavals that occur. Mountains will rise and fall, cities will be leveled, and none will escape the rips and tears of the earth's skin, which will fracture and divide as it floats over the core. Many "seers" have been given maps, by Ascended Masters, re-drawing the new geography. Some have been directed by positive polarity ETs which are referred to as "grays".&lt;br /&gt;Two mapsters that come to mind are Lori Toye and Gordon Michael Scallion. This is one reason why it's important at this time to go within for your own intuitive information. Many have been doing this, and some have moved to different states or countries, following their "inner promptings".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything we consider "real" will be worthless in a blink of an eye. All the hoopla and falderal about this conspiracy or that one, about who wins American Idol, or the latest sports games, all political elections and governments, will no longer have any relevance. This is why our own government has been busy as the dying bees, completing massive underground cities in which to live. They are using our money, through various "black ops channels", as they have for decades, to provide for the elite. We are not included. Yes, they too know about 2012, and much more than we know. But that's not important. What is of value is that this is a transition from a denser form into higher realms in which we are no longer bound by quarantines, fences and limitations. Duality collapses. Whatever our concerns now, even the most important subjects, will be flushed down the proverbial toilet in a flash. Now is the time we can prepare ourselves, by thinking in new ways. It is, by no means, our "finale", but a new beginning, like the butterfly emerging from its cocoon. When? My "best guess" is the latter half of 2010 to the first half of 2011, but it could happen any day now. There should be adequate "warning signs" beforehand. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time to get our spiritual homes in order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many have been in a "cleansing process" for some time now; at least several years or longer. People that I know locally, who don't get on the internet, and who might be considered "country bumpkins", are telling ME that something big is coming, and that an "enormous Shift" is on its way. I'm seeing people awaken to the same information, moving into heart based awareness. George Ure, who writes a daily column called "Urban Survival", has been sharing information about the coming global financial collapse which the predictive linguistics folks he consults with say will occur this October, 2008. This is in alignment with the Mayan 5th Night, which ends the following month of November, which occurs during the next presidential election. Sandwiched in between are the Chinese Olympics, which occur in August 2008. That works out to 08:08:2008, which numerological_ly is an 8, or a sign for Infinity/Source energy. Something is going to happen in August 2008. Astrologically, we could further clarify and pinpoint these energies, but I think you get the picture. Whatever happens is part of a larger divine plan, and it's time to face our fears; mainly, of death. There is only transformation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main point is that a Pole Shift, which has occurred every 13,000 years like clockwork, is due now - any day. So, we are IN the "window" of 2012 now. It opened in October of 2007, the earth's Kundalini has shifted to Peru, and the earth's grids have given birth to a new human conscious life form, in preparation for us to ascend. We can never be ready or prepared for what's coming. I doubt that even if we knew every detail that we could adequately brace for coming events. However, we are continuously being "called" to shift from the mundane, to matters that are more "consequential" and permanent. This may include shedding anything in our lives that does not empower us. It's up to each soul to determine what that might be. Of course, we can continue our lives "as if" and pretend nothing is different, and simply make the shocking course corrections in one swell foop! In the end, it probably doesn't matter; each of us has divine guidance and support every step of the way. It's a matter of awakening to what is, that presently remains unseen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The veils are thinning, and the window is now open… feel the fresh air!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-9050136882863967860?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/9050136882863967860/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=9050136882863967860' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/9050136882863967860'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/9050136882863967860'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/07/window-is-open.html' title='The Window is Open...'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SHPyERwGUiI/AAAAAAAAAQs/XxwBldV0GIs/s72-c/SuperStock_143-322B~Beach-Beckoning-Through-Open-Window-Posters.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-1295761938242903716</id><published>2008-06-26T13:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-26T14:02:26.780-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Postcards from the Country</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SGQB7iEmpSI/AAAAAAAAAQk/GIgnxA7H8n8/s1600-h/skunk2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216296390671901986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SGQB7iEmpSI/AAAAAAAAAQk/GIgnxA7H8n8/s400/skunk2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I live in the country. Life is different in the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take today, for example; rather than a busy morning sitting behind a wooden desk, my dog decided to chase some mysterious animal. I thought it might be a lizard, and egged her on a bit. When she went underneath the stairwell and was doing her "ruff ruff" voice, I knew we were in big trouble, and we weren't in Little China! I gently pulled on her rope, to discover a dog with a snout full of skunk juice. Anyone who has ever had a dog that's cornered a skunk, knows what it's like to clean up. First, it's gooey like snot. Second, it stinks. Third, I had BIG plans of using what little energy this tired old body had, to finish digging my vegetable garden before the Next Great Depression. But, oh no… I had to whisk her guilty bad self into the bathtub and do what neither of us really likes to do; a DOGGIE BATH.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forty-five minutes later, some scolding and behavioral modification later, she was clean. I found strange thoughts wafting through my head: is this what you thought you'd be doing during the "last days", during the Shift, for your ASCENSION? I suppose I never thought I'd be alive in the first place, let alone that this particular period might be a cosmic turning point. Today, there are many reputable and pretty smart spiritual people touting similar ideas; we are going through an intense time of significant change. No longer limited to Hobos reeking of alcohol with cardboard signs which state "The End is Nigh", whatever NIGH means, there are whole subcultures within subcultures devoted to these days we're in right now. That in itself is a significant difference. But, my tired brain asks, "why?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I'm no genius, and have only a modicum of intuitive skills at my disposal, I can't promise any answers to that query. However, after many years of reading, collaborating and listening to my own radio show guests the last 3 years, I do have a few suspicions that I've thrown together like a neatly packed suitcase. It doesn't take Einstein to see that the earth, our planet, which many believe has a soul of its own and is evolving, has pretty much been "trashed" by humanity. That means us. For whatever reason, we've taken the idea of "multiplying and be fruitful" to new levels of insanity. It's as if we are all bent on some kind of suicidal mission to quickly exterminate and destroy everything in our paths. Rather than analyze this to death, let's just pretend that's "normal". I guess it's also considered "normal" to kill each other off when we have territorial disputes, moral arguments or wise manifestations of God walking the earth. Historically, it seems to be how we operate. Kill first, think later; how to get the most profit. Law of Greed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lest I go down a dead end moral road, let's get back to the high ground: what's happening here now? Those who study vast periods of time seem to agree that everything we know is cyclical. The Hindus have many beautiful esoteric stories about these periods, having devised great beings with magical powers who inhabit the higher realms. According to their writings, we are in an age which is the LEAST spiritual of all the ages. It is akin to a "Dark Age" spiritually. That seems right to me. What's of concern, however, is that we're poised on the brink of the NEXT age, which by all accounts is said to be a complete restoration of our conscious awareness, our true nature, and a return or merging with All That Is. Everyone has had some kind of spiritual experience, and I suggest we all have, even if that was simply our birth into the form of matter we call "baby".  Now multiply your own spiritual highs by about 900 trillion in intensity, and this is what we're talking about: going from zero to 60 trillion in a few seconds flat. It's called "no time", or the field, the zone, etc. The Mayans developed great cosmic calendars which each tracked different aspects of cosmic time. Essentially, they depicted these periods as cyclical, with all cycles operating at different times, coming to an end simultaneously on December 21, 2012.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I envision this like a Cosmic Odometer turning over from 999,999.99 to ZERO again; starting "over". Anyone who is middle class probably has owned a car that turned over to zero. A few imagine that the resale value has gone up, contemplating lying about the real mileage on the car. The point is that the car still exists, even after the odometer turns over. For those who have fears or questions about "what happens when…", I suggest using this analogy for comfort. You'll still be in an old, beat up car; your own physical vehicle. Some put Premium in their vehicles, others use alcohol. But the cars that are all here on that date won't be going anywhere, unless you choose to LEAVE that vehicle, like a set of old clothes that you've outgrown. We are not our bodies. We are spirit, which is ethereal in nature; thus, invisible - even to ourselves. This is the Great Deception. We do not know our own Spirit, and have become hypnotized by the flesh. But as any mortician knows, "Ashes to ashes; dust to dust…" We are dust. We're also STARDUST.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is where it gets a little "airy fairy" for some people, myself included. You see, we are not fully awake yet. The little thing called a "veil" is not just something worn by women in other cultures, it's also a veil of forgetfulness which all souls or spirits agree to undertake prior to entry into the physical realm. From birth to death we experience. Each unique soul also carries within, a spark of the Divinity from which we were created at the spiritual level. Before we were separate sparks, we participated as One, so the story goes. We are still connected through all the various densities, back to Source, right now. However, we have agreed to enter into this physical form for many reasons; some our own, some as part of our service to that from which we arise. Nothing happens accidentally. There are no accidents. Imagine filaments of Light holding everything together in a kind of sea of light. What holds our bodies together? Well, it ain't glue! Every molecule has intelligence and design. During this period we are in now, we are spiraling into a higher potential or cycle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine feeling every cell washed in a kind of bath made from the highest realms of matter, the ethereal realms. This energy is fully conscious and is said to "spiritualize matter" and all forms. The general plan is to re-energize or Divinitize down to the subatomic levels, so that even an atom will be fully conscious of its own divine nature and interconnectedness. All matter will work in cooperation with that which breathes life into it. We do not have to worry about what to do, because others, who ultimately are our Selves, have already blazed this trail before (and after) us. Time is not linear, nor is it non-existent. Time is relative and multidimensional. It does exist; but it is relative to the density one is focusing on or manifesting from. Yes, we will be able to, and can now, step "outside of time". We do it routinely when we sleep, dream and leave our bodies each night. Many do this unconsciously in Day Dreams. And some intentionally create an OBE (out of body experience) day or night. Yet here we are, in a kind of holographic living dream. Sometimes, that dream or bubble bursts; in that moment, we awaken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, a water pipe burst, and I was lucky to have a friend help me out with the repairs. Yesterday, the skunk; today, the water pipe. Like I said, life is "different" in the country!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-1295761938242903716?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/1295761938242903716/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=1295761938242903716' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1295761938242903716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1295761938242903716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/06/postcards-from-country.html' title='Postcards from the Country'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SGQB7iEmpSI/AAAAAAAAAQk/GIgnxA7H8n8/s72-c/skunk2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-8293174256635280676</id><published>2008-06-16T16:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-16T16:55:31.965-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Tree of Life</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SFb9IFnCinI/AAAAAAAAAQc/c9SmLYwKY8U/s1600-h/Rainbow.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212631934114630258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SFb9IFnCinI/AAAAAAAAAQc/c9SmLYwKY8U/s400/Rainbow.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;As the moon fattens up for her big moment once again, nature calls me outside as landscape lights up in the night. This entry is going to be "stream of consciousness" today… it may dip into "stream of UNconciousness" occasionally, but I'll try to keep the energy up. This week I received an email from someone who had read all my blog entries, asking when I might post another. The way writing usually works for me is tandem with the "energy waves" which wash through us in spirals, lifting and separating, then lowering back down to non-ethereal lows. When the muse strikes, words seem to flow like water from the tap. Otherwise, it feels like I'm forcing something to materialize, and at that point must investigate my reasons for writing. Am I just going through the motions? Is this ego manifesting? Am I angry or incensed about some perceived injustice? Most of the time I don't think of myself as someone with "something to say" about anything. We each have our own blind spots, that water down our talents. It's helpful to listen to other's compliments as well as the critiques. I take the critiques very seriously, dwell on them, and throw the good stuff out the window!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What his kind remarks remind me is how special each of us is, and how each person on the planet, regardless of externals: occupation, color, sex, sexual preference, status, education, health, and so on, truly is. We are the only ones who can do what we're here to do, in our own unique fashion. Imagine putting together a jigsaw puzzle, getting to the final piece and finding it missing. We are the Alpha and the Omega. Together, we create the solid tapestry of light which connects all life at the hip, but more important, at the heart. These are times in which many hidden truths are being revealed. As this occurs and as more people awaken, decades of suppressed feelings will surface. It's important to remember during these times that at the level of spirit we are infinite and eternal, and there is nothing that can hurt or destroy us. In this illusion or game we call life, we are players on a stage, and we are writing the script(s). We chose the role we are experiencing now for the maximum benefit of our soul's evolutionary path. There are no accidents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;True genius lies in the ability to tap into higher-level information just beyond our left brain's capability to conceive. We exist in numerous interpenetrating fields, and can develop a capacity to raise and lower ourselves spiritually, in any given moment. This is one reason why having beliefs about ourselves can be a hindrance, unless it is the belief that we are all gods-in-training, capable of great feats of mind and heart. By tapping into "the field", as did Tesla, Einstein and many others, we literally raise ourselves up and into higher vibrations. The lower still exists within our 3D world, but we are then no longer "in it", though of it. The perception that some are "ahead" of us, while many more lag behind, is illusion. We ARE the spirit pushing the envelope, as well as the ones seemingly unconscious. Our true position is everywhere and nowhere; as Observers. This is why non judgment is so precious; we are, in fact, all of it; the heavy veils that we accepted coming into this incarnation are thinning. As they do, clarity and connectedness increase.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Power of Manifestation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are many. The many "I's" continually manifest with and without our attention. The more energy needed to invest in "making things happen", the less there is for awareness. By allowing intent to be sufficient, there is no need to continually focus on the subjects of our desires. Most of our desires are aspects of our lower selves endlessly creating more illusion to break free of. Buddha explains that suffering begins with desires yet the path to Godhood includes following one's desires. To me, the essence of moving towards soul-living is turning away from the endless stream of wants, which our egos justify as "needs", and allowing spirit to present. Being present to "what is" can be a simple and effective teaching tool, if we allow it. Satisfaction is created from within. We create satisfaction; it is not achieved by acquiring things. By being satisfied with our lives "as is", we move off the treadmill of comparisons and duality, which also frees creativity to manifest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Connected with this idea is the concept of service. Are we oriented towards service to self, to others, or to all? Though we move back and forth between these states daily, it's important to know who we are at the core. Is our core value designed to further ourselves or to help others AND self simultaneously? One obstacle to manifestation results from the limitations of our thinking. First, we mainly use the Left brain, the logical and analytical side to process with, and second we are using our five senses. To manifest at the soul level requires balancing the Left intellectual half with the Right intuitive "feminine" creative side. Until we connect with our intuition and inner senses, which continue with the 6th and 7th and beyond, we are not truly "connected" to our source within. When the Left and Right are more or less balanced, a circuit is opened to higher thought and emotion. We all have "flashes" of this brilliance, but it requires mindfulness to observe ourselves and make corrections, from the Observer. The Observer is like a Steward that we create on the way to Mastery. The Master evolves from the Observer, so the more we can be watchful, mindful, of our lower senses, the stronger the higher aspects. It's tantamount to a "psychic workout".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It may not be necessary to take actions demonstrating service to others, but by remaining aware, we know when opportunities arise in the moment. Being present allows us to seize the moment, make a contribution, which ripples outward and inward. What we give out or emanate returns, tenfold. If one were to strip away all the gobbledy gook of most spiritual disciplines, what is left at their core is the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. This simple statement covers almost every situation imaginable, and offers a moral compass for developing conscience. Since there is no such thing as "objective morality", as everything is relative, we can only know what is right action in our own lives. Judging others by our own standards is not only foolish, but it hampers our own progress. Oddly, the further we move away from being concerned about others, the more visible is a grand design. From chaos, a kind of tapestry of interconnectedness begins to emerge. In that oneness, all is as it "should be". If it were meant to be otherwise, it would be. Allowance is the way of the Avatar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-8293174256635280676?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/8293174256635280676/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=8293174256635280676' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/8293174256635280676'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/8293174256635280676'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/06/tree-of-life.html' title='The Tree of Life'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SFb9IFnCinI/AAAAAAAAAQc/c9SmLYwKY8U/s72-c/Rainbow.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-274785402822957390</id><published>2008-04-23T23:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-23T23:17:16.258-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Alien Species 2 - Greys and Reptilians</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SBAjWW2E3bI/AAAAAAAAAP0/8DZIsMUFN5I/s1600-h/reptilian+eyes.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192689237354667442" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SBAjWW2E3bI/AAAAAAAAAP0/8DZIsMUFN5I/s400/reptilian+eyes.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;"Alien Species 2 - Greys and Reptilians"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWR6WE4z20g&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would add to the above presentation, by Dr. Greer, that the people who have seen and validated the various species have done so under tightly controlled circumstances. Many species have been relegated to deep underground facilities, where they are "left alone" for the most part. Most of us have heard of the horrendous experimentation that occurs on humans and others. Still others are held and experimented with, and some "come and go". Those in the dark will operate and remain in the dark. We are of the light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of those who have been working "with" or in concert with factions within the government, through "black ops", do not have a benevolent agenda, but rather a "service to self" agenda. This is why they are considered "liars", because they, like the military and corporate men they work with, all have their own hidden agendas and all of them are lying to each other. A house divided against itself cannot stand. Their own plans to divide humanity is crumbling, as they continue to separate internally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By no means should we base our opinions about the vast, infinite and highly compassionate, benevolent Star Family, by those who are involved in any coercion or covert "operations" . They are with us, among us, and beyond us in ships that we cannot see, monitoring every nanosecond!When the major governments were approached by these different visitors, the story goes, the benevolent ones who appear similar to us, offered to help us or empower us, but would NOT provide the military with anything that could be used as a WEAPON. They wisely saw and explained that we were NOT READY for the technology. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This didn't set well with the PTB, whose only focus is on the dualistic mentality of US vs THEM. Alien vs. Predator!Well, let them have their toys!So, they chose instead to align with various elements, possibly the reptilian and gray rogue or independent "negative polarity entities", to provide technology for our use, which means "weapons". THEY have become obsessed with total domination of the world, and the escalation of events, which includes "weather wars, chemtrails, microwaves, HAARP, water poisoning, food corruption (GM food, nanobacterias on meats, using corn for fuel, etc.) is occurring on us at an alarming rate. The big Pharma, which is in collusion, sits back and spits out trillions of dollars of medications, in the meantime, to "help us". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Literally everything is being used now, as a weapon in some way. Financial weaponry, disease, food, water, air, space, chipping us, etc. Greed knows no limits.Due to their collusion and ownership of "government" , all the MediCare/Cal programs, the elderly insurance, bring in bundles of high priced services, contra to helping heal. This is about rape and pillage on a global scale, as has never before been done. The "sheeple" only see and believe what the talking heads at FOX, the Republican run spin factory, and a few major controlled stations... they are all tightly controlled. If you are just "awakening" to these truths, watch this video called "Esoteric Agenda".  Watch it even if you think you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.talismanicidols.org/video.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth, those in power know, is what they PRESENT to us. Spin, twist and voila! Fake reality.We cannot stop them, and indeed those rogue operations are now infighting and will self-destruct as the vibration on our planet is raised. Those of us who are awakening, and that is the many in these groups, all who are sharing and spreading information, not Disinformation, and those who may not know anything about all of this, but have GOOD HEARTS and loving souls, will rise to "inherit the earth". The POSITIVE polarity et's, also our family, as all are interrelated and we cannot separate out any "good guys or bad guys", (all are ultimately one family), the benevolent and loving ones who have, and are, empowering us, chose to back away from the governments in power, and approach the whole question of awakening humanity from other venues. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of you have "private information" about how this is happening, and no one of us has ALL or even most of the pieces, regarding the actual operations that occur from the angelic realms all the way through every density. But there is a mandate from All That Is right now, and we are in those energies, to awaken and empower all of us. Those who are unable, during the actual moments of the shift, however that occurs, to move from fragmented and service to self consciousness into higher, love creation vibrations and service to others, will be headed "elsewhere". The earth we inherit is not the OLD paradigm of hatred, intolerance, greed, suffering, disease and genocide, where a few elite suck up ALL the resources of a planet, bleed it dry, and move on. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are headed for a crystalline clarity of higher dimensions, and our family of Light is preparing to guide, empower and share our rightful place in All That Is. There is an infinite array of possibilities, and each soul, each One of us, will rise to the highest place possible to be with those of "like vibration" and cosmic mind and heart.The majority of humans are so dense that they must see "talking heads" and old men dressed in suits and ties, with badges and colorful ribbons, denoting their "positions" to tell them what is "true" or not true. WE, on the other hand, who are going within for our guidance, will find it through synchronicity, orbs, direct contact... and NOT the kind of scary, hellish monster-vision that Whitley Strieber mentions, but the truly radiant, loving beings of Light who are original, and true family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;None of us on this planet are from here. We're all spirit, traveling through the OmniVerse in many forms, many guises... returning to the unity of the One.True, most have had to enter into a human form that is plunging into this dark place, but many have entered in other ways, and the methodology is increasing as the Light Quotient here is elevated, thanks to ALL of us, each and every lighted soul, that is holding this higher vibration for the coming Shift, which MAY include a Pole Shift near 2011-2012. In the meantime, this is the year of global financial collapse. We will read, increasingly, that more "experts" from the controlled media will LEAK the information that we are in a collapse, which is designed to be an even greater depression than the one which was artificially created the last time by the banksters. That was done to set up the Federal Reserve, which is a "gangsta op". LOL. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those who have chosen greed and power will end up having what they wished for. But not here, and their low vibrations will keep them from "ascending" or shifting upwards into higher densities. During the shift, some who have incarnated from higher "Ds" will assist as long as they are needed and can help, and then will return to the density from which they lovingly and selflessly incarnated here for our benefit.Critical mass is approaching.My guest last week, Jay Weidner, agrees with others who are following the Mayan and other prophetic timelines, that until November 2008 we will most likely see a major collapse, which I see coming as a way of shocking the bulk of "sleeper cells" out there, from their complacency and blind reliance on technology, beer and American Idol. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The masses have been coddled and manipulated to sleep... "poppies will make them sleep", says the wicked witch. Well, we've all been fed with the opium of the masses through television, radio, newspapers, "public opinion", all controlled media, the water being fluoridated, the chemtrails, and our foods, not to mention the "medications" to help us with our ever-growing lists of anxieties, depressions and "newly coined terminology" such as ADHSALDP! Don't ask...The incoming souls from "the stars", call them Starseed, Indigo, Crystal, or disturbed, are here to assist us. We will see huge groups leaving, as the souls ready to incarnate are "piled up" and can't wait to jump in and HELP! Our cries for help HAVE been heard, and the many plans that have been ongoing underneath the radar, for our benefit, will begin to manifest shortly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, do not be fearful, follow your heart, your bliss, and most of all... TRUST yourself! This is a time to get our information from within. True, it's fun to read channeled messages, and various new posts from those we enjoy reading, and that's fine. But: only YOU can know your own soul's path and mission(s) here, and all of us are here to hold our OWN vibration... not someone else's!So, don't envy someone else for their "abilities" or what they are doing, since each of us is equally valuable in the cosmic jigsaw puzzle, even if it appears we are simply going to work and coming home. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Know that YOU make a difference, and only you can provide the unique abilities the were brought in and are needed. The secrets to the Universe are all encoded within the metaphor of our own daily lives. Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear... remember that what we see is not the underlying reality. Keep following the threads back to the source. All That Is asked for our help, and many "volunteered" , but we're all here by choice! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, no whining... batten up the hatches, and rather than focusing on the "doom and gloom" which many will interpret due to their level of awareness, let's prepare to PARTY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep on choosing the High Road, and the low road eventually disappears from view...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best,Zany&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-274785402822957390?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/274785402822957390/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=274785402822957390' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/274785402822957390'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/274785402822957390'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/04/alien-species-2-greys-and-reptilians.html' title='Alien Species 2 - Greys and Reptilians'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/SBAjWW2E3bI/AAAAAAAAAP0/8DZIsMUFN5I/s72-c/reptilian+eyes.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-8231149451643642264</id><published>2008-03-28T21:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-28T21:39:11.744-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Under the Waterfall</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R-3A_LrQKnI/AAAAAAAAAPs/nJfzxKG4uKY/s1600-h/waterfall.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5183010937871805042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R-3A_LrQKnI/AAAAAAAAAPs/nJfzxKG4uKY/s400/waterfall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Clinging of any kind is not only unattractive, it's a major hindrance to living fully. Forget about abundance! The more attached we are to anything, the more we attract the opposite. Conversely, the greater our ability to let go, live "lightly", unattached, yet living fully in our bodies, the more we expand and grow; the path becomes increasingly effortless and synchronous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of you might think this is going to be a post affirming life, and its wonderful attributes. Uh, no. The consensus reality has the truth backwards and twisted around. So, to approximate my own truths, I've had to gently reverse everything I know, then twist it back around to where it starts in the first place. It doesn't happen overnight. Point in question:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Humanity clings to life at any and all costs. What's up with that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our denial of death is but one of the long list of archaic concepts which I can place in the popular new age bag labeled "old paradigms". I'm already getting sick of hearing this buzz word, so we may have to invent some new labels for our rapidly shifting reality. The fact is, we cling to life, even when we are mangled and brain dead, and frantic relatives spur the medical profession to prolong the agony as long as possible. This certainly can't be for the poor dumb cluck lying in their own feces, drooling out of a feeding tube. Oh, no. It's our own fear of mortality, fear of loneliness, and ignorance about spiritual matters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't claim to be a spiritual "teacher", I just pay attention; but there IS an enormous and growing movement which backs up the idea that we are souls inhabiting bodies having a human experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet we live as if we ARE our bodies, our emotions, our jobs, our sex, our beliefs, or religions, and will kill Bill and anyone else over trivial pursuits. These limitations are the effects, the trappings which cover up the emptiness of not knowing our Selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almost everyone who has had a near death experience returns a changed person. First, they say "there are no words to describe the awesome beauty…" We can conjure up images of crystal cities with glowing crystal living "bricks" until doomsday, and not begin to appreciate the fact that "the other side" is the REAL side, and THIS side is the ILLUSION.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rather than clinging to life, if we were truly "enlightened", we would, at the very least, lose all our fears about death. That's minimal damage control. Then, those who have experienced the magnificence of the real world outside of time and space, would be chomping at the bit to "end it all" and go HOME. And, they do!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, what keeps those who have been there, done that, on this side is an overwhelming sense that there is unfinished business which starts and ends with love for others, and ultimately love of the One Energy that everyone has their own concept about: You Know Who. Yet, people talk FOR You Know Who as if they KNEW "It". Impossible. The One is so far removed from this density, that were it to suddenly intrude, to "micromanage" our affairs, the intensity of pure energy would cause atoms themselves to go into instant meltdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The clearest channels state that energies higher than about 7th or 8th density cannot communicate directly with us, here in the 3rd, because the energy MUST be "stepped down". Hence, when people claim to be channeling a 12th density being from some other dimension, this is probably not true. It's a projection of our own feeble minds, which are not (yet) wired fully to receive these higher energies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, God/Goddess/All That Is resides beyond our dementia and dimensions. It may be accurate that we all contain a spark of the Divine within, but darkness can extinguish a candle if it's not nurtured. Imagine being in a tunnel. One direction spirals down, into an underground lair; the other leads up and out to the world of light. Those who turn downwards continue to move further from the light, and it becomes more difficult to find "the way". Others are in blazing light, but most of us can intuitively see a candle or flashlight leading upwards and outwards/inwards. Follow the Light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is what "the Shift" is ultimately about: raising our frequency, "en masse", BEFORE the window of incoming divine energies, which all religions speak about in their own metaphors, opens and closes. Those in the New Age talk about 2012, Ascension, Lifting, ET family, etc. Biblicals talk of Revelations, Armageddon and the Rapture. Cayce, Nostradamus, the Mayans all have their versions. It's the same deal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How we experience higher realms or "realities" depends upon how we live our lives now. This period we are in is the culmination of at least 4.5 billion years, a twinkling of an eye, and is the literal finale of this cosmos as we know it. This isn't a great time to be starting that new career, or finding that perfect mate. That's all "new soul" stuff anyway. You, who are reading this, are an OLD SOUL. Remember? Of course you do! How silly of me to ask.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, to approach REALity, we must take the consensus, reverse it, then twist it around. It's okay, it won't break! Then, we might be able to get closer to our own eternal and immutable truths. I've had to reverse my "beliefs", most of which were inherited or programmed, to live in a flexible reality. Nature demonstrates that a dry, brittle tree in a gusty wind breaks and snaps, where a green bough bends with the strongest of gales. There are souls that, even though a spark of the Divine remains within, it's so crusted over with lifetimes of bad choices, that the body walking around is virtually "dead". If people seem "lifeless" you are perceiving accurately; trust yourself. Those who have been there, say we plan our lives from the other side, prior to the incarnation experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We willingly enter as spirit under the veil of forgetfulness, into the womb which has been cooking the loaf in the oven.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Smelling the fresh baked bread&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This truth removes ALL sense of distorted victim hood, if we can but remember that we CHOOSE our hardships, our trials and tribulations, our sexual preferences, the whole bag. We need to give ourselves credit for being smart enough, from a higher perspective, to have chosen WISELY. And, if there's anything about our lives that we don't like, who or what is stopping us from making new choices, and changing? Blaming others is like spiritual illiteracy. It's only when we don't "get our lessons" that unnecessary suffering blankets our lives, rather than spirit leading effortlessly. Spirit sources our lives. But it takes a big gulp to swallow the enormous pride and our ego-driven personalities to begin to ponder the idea that we just might be wrong about things; many things, perhaps even everything. Time to hit the Restart Button. Sometimes that's the only way to get "unstuck".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last, we're told that upon death we experience a "Life Review" in living, colorful holographic reality - more real than the original. This review is simultaneously experienced from three different perspectives at once: From our own perspective, from the actual experiences that we caused in other's lives, as well as the domino effect of those who were indirectly affected by our choices, and last; an Omniscient view, from above. This happens at the same moment. It's hard to conceive of all this "activity" going on at once, because we are living in a dense, veiled illusory world. We are accustomed to thinking linearly, in time. Yet, there IS no time! Time is an invention of the mind, which we conveniently "forgot", allowing us to not be responsible for ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth isn't always convenient or pleasant. As a gay male, I was in "denial" about my sexuality for decades, creating all my unnecessary suffering largely because I accepted other's views about being gay; peers, religions and society. This included chronic alcoholism, near-fatal car accidents, and enough drugs to kill all of California! As time passed, I had to work through one incorrect assumption after another about myself. The largest hurdle to jump was the one which even some at the top of the new age pack promote: that gays are not up to snuff, and cannot achieve the "heights" of normal heterosexuals. Hogwash and Poppycock! I don't even need to discuss this openly, it's so "old paradigm" it's like a Flintstones car or a Model T in the year 2012. As my concept of Self shifted, so too did everyone else in my world. I began to see with greater clarity and compassion, finding wonderful souls of "like mind".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But we all have our own "hidden closets" from which we live our lives each day, stuffed full of old thoughts, dusty mothballed ideas, and worm-eaten beliefs. It's understandable why people don't want to open that door to confront the monstrosities within. People who never clean out their "inner closets" of shame, guilt, fear, loathing, self-hatred, "other" hatred, perversities, and "misc.", become walking sticks of death. The life drains out of the eyes, mirrors to the soul if you recall Spirituality 101, and we end up lying, manipulating and collecting more "stuff" to reassure ourselves that WE are "okay". More poppycock.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not sure we can ever fully shine the light in our own inner closets, and that's all in the past anyway. We can only live in this moment. Yet, it behooves us to begin contemplating a good Spring Cleaning; and are we not close to Spring right now? It helps to "lighten up". Isn't this how a hot air balloon takes off, by dropping the dead weight? The balloon ascends. Ascension. So, let's get the Hoover out; it's fine to start literally with our living spaces, as everything is a metaphor for what's happening within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's sad, but some people don't even know they HAVE a closet, let alone that they're living in it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This question surfaces: Why bother?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything is energy. The energy used to conceal the truth from ourselves uses the creative energies which are referred to in the Law of Attraction. It's like a black hole. It becomes increasingly difficult for the Universe to assist us, so we end up driving our own cars, on empty, stealing gasoline and looking in the rear view mirror. A crash is inevitable. To get what we desire requires increasing effort and attention at the expense of heart, connection and love. Lying to others robs us of enormous energy; and, we run the risk of believing our own lies. This leads to pathological behavior and we can see the results of this in all of our political "leaders" today. The chance for spirit to reside in the body becomes nil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spirit is source, not matter. Again, life has everything upside down and backwards: Through the Looking Glass. Those who mistakenly cling to material things, including beliefs and relationships as the "end all", will wake up to discover they've put their money into worthless junk bonds. Do you want to be a ClingOn? Telling the truth frees us up to live authentically, and empowers us to prepare to receive the bounty we deserve, without expectations. Abundance is a practical aspect of living closely to Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I'm going to segue out of this post by suggesting that we begin to stop pointing our fingers "out there", and begin looking within our own glass houses. Many metaphoric homes are about to shatter from decades of ignorance, denial and fear; becoming almost worthless. Time to look in without judgment, clean house, throw out that old crap, and move onward and inward. Treat your emotional baggage as if it's old clothes being given away to Good Will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This life is a miraculous journey. However, be sure to stand clear of anyone who is stuck in their dusty rusty old pair of dimes, and start diving for the hidden treasure, the pearl within, which truly resides inside each and every one of us. All life is connected together in an infinite fabric of light and, yes… love. It may sound like "trivial pursuit", but in the end, which is here now, it's "all there is…" Peggy Lee almost got it right! And it's the only game in town.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meet you by the waterfall…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-8231149451643642264?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/8231149451643642264/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=8231149451643642264' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/8231149451643642264'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/8231149451643642264'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/03/under-waterfall.html' title='Under the Waterfall'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R-3A_LrQKnI/AAAAAAAAAPs/nJfzxKG4uKY/s72-c/waterfall.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-7639635311944596496</id><published>2008-03-16T15:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T16:30:05.380-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Interval'/><title type='text'>Around the Bend</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R92pZlbOAVI/AAAAAAAAAPk/n4LMpS3IFhk/s1600-h/moody+mythic+mountain.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178481403554038098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R92pZlbOAVI/AAAAAAAAAPk/n4LMpS3IFhk/s400/moody+mythic+mountain.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I hear many asking, "where are we at right now? Where are the changes for the better? and what's around the bend?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've been through the Harmonic Convergence, survived the Y2K event, "Fired the Grid", resonated with Karen Bishop and her Energy Alerts, and done our homework on the Mayan Prophecies about 2012.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've taken the esoteric aspects of traditional religions, and discovered that spirit resides within. Most have begun to connect their "heart chakras" with the left brain, and are nurturing our right brain Divine feminine side. Our angels work overtime, and guides guide us through our life's experiences, as we meditate. But what in the heck is happening "out there" in our shared reality, that we call "the world"? Some have done mind altering substances in the 60's, or recently traveled to South American countries to be with shamans to do Ayahuasca. Why do we continue to see so much corruption, greed, ignorance, fear and superficial human activity, and when will other people begin to "wake up"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Behind the veil, much occurs that we are not privy to; nothing is as it seems. The most important aspect of this shared holographic reality, is the understanding that we are all God in our own Universe. There are no victims. We are each Creator Gods/Goddesses, merging with our Higher Selves. The reason why it seems as if the unfolding of world events is taking so much time is because we all agreed at the soul level to "wait a bit longer" for THE Shift to occur, so that the maximum number of souls could "get on board". We're in the shift right now, but THE shift approaches. We are like a salad dressing of oil, water and vinegar. Until now, we've been "shaken up" and so MIXED UP that we haven't been able to distinguish the unique flavors that make up this salad dressing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is now the "separation" process; the wheat and the chaff parable. Next, is purification by fire. The chaff is traditionally burned, and the wheat is stored or eaten. Fire represents an influx of Divine Ethereal energies, which Robert Cox refers to as "The Pillar of Celestial Fire", which is the name of his enlightening book, is worth reading. It's an esoteric "gold mine".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, the out breath of God has stopped. We are in the cosmic moment when the IN breath begins. It's similar to suspended animation. We wait. We go on, and we create, both our unique and our collective realities. But it's not "business as usual". Those of us who know this are no better or different; we simply agreed to assist our "other selves" who awaken, right up until the last nanosecond. It's a matter of being of service to others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, when feelings come up that we've DONE our "clearings" for decades, we've done all the "transformational movements", the rebirthing, the past life experience workshops, the OBEs, connected to our guides and angels, and wondered rightfully WHEN things will actually CHANGE, this is why. We're holding the note of consciousness as the shift literally transforms everything. As this intensifies, many will cling to old paradigms, to material realities, as spirit merges with this dimension. An analogy is that of a symphony, in which several higher harmonic notes have intentionally been withheld. At a certain moment, they will be added to the arrangement, and what was chaotic and meaningless is transformed into Celestial Music of the Spheres.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Higher dimensions are merging with 3D (this one). This is why it's said in all teachings that everything will be revealed. On the "other side" which is where we source this reality, everything already "is" without the density, subterfuge and distortions. Since there is no such thing as time, and the Mayan Calendar proclaims the "end of time", it's the end of the ILLUSION, or the end of Maya. This is why there is no calendar that continues after 2012. It's the end of what is not real. What can be so "bad" about that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If one is aligned with one's soul, knowingly or not, if we are living authentically from our hearts, if we honor ALL life as One, then we are on the right track, and there is nothing "to do". We're the only animals that have convinced ourselves that we are "above" everything else. This has created feelings of separation, lack and fear. When we live from fear, we have to cling to something material as our lifeboat. When we don't believe that we are spirit manifesting through matter, then matter becomes "significant", and the accumulation of matter is our search for our Selves. Wrong place to discover eternity!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spirituality is a deepening realization of Spirit. That's it. Once we penetrate the veil, our lives turn inside out and upside down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like a Pole Shift, we realize that everything we thought we knew was backwards. We had it wrong. Ego doesn't like to admit being wrong. That's what most fighting is about. It's a petty clinging to the concept of being right; being right leads to being righteous. Righteousness leads to judgment, hatred, intolerance, imprisonment, inquisitions and being burned at the stake. It establishes false gods or "hierarchies" which claim to have special connections to source, which we must discover for ourselves to be false. What we do to another we do to our Selves, so why would anyone want to hurt or exclude another? To be right, to control, to have power over. Dominion. Divide and conquer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's important to "let go" of the idea that the masses are going to awaken. It's not likely to happen that way. It only takes a small percentage, less than 2% of the population, to create a permanent shift, as suggested by the "100th Monkey Theory". Be happy to be in that percentage; develop compassion. Everyone is fine, and each soul has its own path to follow. Let go of the idea that others must be like you. We're not here to gain followers. It's painfully obvious what happens to sheep and cattle, and who can be certain they are leading others in the "right" direction?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We face major upheavals right now, so connecting with our own higher intuitive information is vital. Global financial collapse is around the corner. I've been following this for years; my father used to say, since childhood in the 1950's, that money is worthless. He would make vulgar displays by taking a paper bill and pretending to wipe his ass with it! It created a lasting impression. He also mentioned that "the Bilderbergs" own everything. Pretty astute observations. Today, the false belief in money as God is going South. It is about to collapse, and its "followers" will feel as if they have died, because they have nothing left to believe in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the Great Depression, many jumped out of windows to their death. Some will choose to depart by making a transition to spirit. Shocks motivate the maximum number of souls to go inward, wake up, and smell the burning coffee. Those of us involved with "new age" ideas, are going to begin seeing predictions coming true: the collapse of all things. Like dominos falling, in the movie "V for Vendetta", we have set up this global shift for our Selves, and we are writing the Final Script. Why would we write anything but a Glorious Happy Ending?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, as things begin to "fall apart", do not fear. Fear is a lower vibration that comes about when we believe in the ILLusion. We are healing. Everything hidden and sick must surface to be healed and released. As we FINALLY let go of all that is not love-based, which has been sustained by fear, the new vibrations will manifest. What will that be like? Well, we'll know when we arrive. It hasn't been created yet. We're "here", at the tipping point, the point at which everything slides into the ocean; some things quite literally. It's not a good time to move to the coast!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There may be a pole shift soon, and from there it gets very interesting indeed. We have substantial help from the "invisibles". The other side, and higher density positive polarity groups are assisting us, and have been for decades. No, they are not going to "save us". We must make whatever choices we do. The dark side has to be permitted, allowed, to play out its intentions right up until the last microsecond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's a game of chess, where you give your "opponent" enough rope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But we do not have time to worry about those who have, over many lifetimes, had their cake who expect to "have it all". It just isn't going to be a happening thing. What we personify as "evil" is actually a descending spiral, which comes about from continuing to reinforce (choose) unconscious behavior. Unconsciousness is darkness, or turning away from light (information), heart and one's conscience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consciousness represents an ascending spiral, of awareness, truth, beauty, love, harmony, peace, etc. These are "archetypes" which guide us when we align with our own soul/spirit. The downward spiral moves further away from Divine Archetypes, in a desire to replace truth with false archetypes, based upon illusion. This is where greed and power step in, and stealing everyone else's "stuff".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The "dark side" is an attempt to replace, or BE "God", in one's own universe. It's the ultimate "forgetting game". We are in a process of self-remembering. Since we already ARE God in our own universe, the desire to have everything has already been fulfilled. The "Everything" that the dark side desires, is manufactured out of fear and loathing of self. It cannot "win" or prevail. In any case, each of us is fully accountable and responsible for our own choices. They all come back to bite us in the ass; not later, but as John Lennon sang, "Instant Karma is gonna get you!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bad news is that things are about to appear to get darker. The good news is that the light wins in the last moments, like a James Bond movie. That's how close we are, and will be, to the "bad guys" taking over the world for their own selfish purposes. Megalomania is not a high vibration. The "bad guys" are going to lose in the end. It may have appeared they are winning, or will gain control through NAFTA, the perverted political process, bird flu, AIDS, SARS, water and food control, genocide, terror, wars, chemtrails, Endgames, the FED, the Bilderbergs, the Tri-Lateral Commission, Skull and Bones, the Illuminati, military-industrial complex, NWO, secret UFO technologies, big pharma, reptilians and grays, etc. Yet, in spite of all the "nefarious" plans, which have been operating long before we were born, they all come to naught. Zero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even the "escape plans" which the elite have, "just in case" are not going to work. One door after another will close, until suddenly, like a car accident, or a "Big Bang", all will be transformed. How that looks is anyone's guess. This is a time to choose wisely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, watch the astrological signs, keep your house in order, and love one another. Don't get caught up in the drama, and laugh a lot. If you really want to raise your vibration, wean yourself off of all media such as television, radio and newspapers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't worry about the "news". You'll hear about anything that's really important. Besides, the REAL news is all inside. Until we begin to listen within, and to hear our own inner voice, our higher self, the intuitive "wise one" inside, all else is hypnosis and brainwashing; mainly, to get us to jump through hoops. Buy this, buy that, think this, think that. Read my lips. You can be fairly certain that everything a politician says is not truth, and is a manipulation or outright lie. If you begin reversing what our "leaders" say, you will arrive much closer to the truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're born and we die. What we do in between is our responsibility, so why not choose to be happy and live fully? That happens when we begin to think, feel and live for ourselves; not as slaves to other's limited beliefs and outdated paradigms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When in doubt, FOLLOW YOUR BLISS. Always follow your heart's desire!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-7639635311944596496?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/7639635311944596496/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=7639635311944596496' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7639635311944596496'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7639635311944596496'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/03/around-bend.html' title='Around the Bend'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R92pZlbOAVI/AAAAAAAAAPk/n4LMpS3IFhk/s72-c/moody+mythic+mountain.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-3653632465556716099</id><published>2008-03-14T21:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-14T21:58:54.788-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Interview Part TWO'/><title type='text'>Questions and Answers with L.B White, Part Two</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R9tQNlbOAUI/AAAAAAAAAPc/0aX9tnZCgPA/s1600-h/Zen+Garden.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177820390907314498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R9tQNlbOAUI/AAAAAAAAAPc/0aX9tnZCgPA/s400/Zen+Garden.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Author, Tales of a Zany Mystic at www.amazon.com, PART TWO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;What can we DO about all the corruption and evil in the world today?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;First, each person has their own set of glasses on, their own interpretation of world events. When we go deeper inside, into our own inner landscape to discover truth, we find that the closer we are to our own soul's alignment, the more we understand at the deepest intuitive levels that everyone else does too. What we see is the outer manifestation of spiritual events. Everything happens at the level of Spirit first, like a template or archetype, as Jung elucidated. Those who are most closely aligned with their own spirit or soul, intuitively move through the layers or densities in which most people, who are not aware, get stuck. Everyone is at some "point" of the awakening process, and each one of us controls the pace at which we awaken. The same truths are going to be discovered, the more we rise up from our waking sleep; we move from fragmentation to Unity Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you factor in the concept of numerous incarnations, in which each soul is allowed to follow its own path due to "free will", a small percentage have chosen to reinforce their belief in lack by pursuing money (power) and accumulating "things". Things includes countries, people and governments. It's just a different scale. Where the "normal" person is reasonably content with one house and two cars, which is excessive given earth's resources and the millions who are starving, an elite few have managed to sequester away most of the world's assets. This has happened without the public's knowledge or awareness; quietly and intentionally. And this is as it "should be", because in addition to free will and creating our own reality, we have deeper subconscious aspects which are united as a "collective" which create our shared realities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why we all see basically the same things, even though they are not the same. We have allowed things to progress to this point; the question is, once we wake up to what's happening, what will we choose?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;QUESTION:&lt;br /&gt;So what should we DO about evil in the world; can we do anything constructive?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. WHITE:&lt;br /&gt;Yes. We can cultivate who we are as life-affirming, loving and compassionate souls, and begin wherever we can to care for one another. This may start with buying a loaf of bread and carton of milk, and handing it over to the homeless person in front of the store. Little things matter and they change the world. When we allow ourselves to become upset and angry about injustice, and there's plenty to be upset about today, it can be overwhelming, besides lowering our psychic vibration. To change means to focus on who WE are. Are we doing anything in our lives that could be considered hurtful or damaging to others? Is that who we really are? Most of us don't tell ourselves the truth, so we don't see our own shadow. Life becomes highly compartMENTALized, like a beehive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's a legitimate spiritual path to pursue "the Dark Side", as did the archetype Darth Vader in Star Wars. However, to achieve a higher station in what's called Service to Self, one must be 90% committed. As you move up, there is more "artificial trust" because a few MUST align on the same dark agendas. But they don't trust one another either, and would just as soon eliminate the others, so corrupt empires eventually fall. It takes enormous energy to conceal the truth, manipulate, lie and destroy. It's really about trying to replace God by BEING God. Some of the people who run the world today actually think they ARE Gods. We're all "gods-in-training", and our training wheels are about to be removed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;How does one progress spiritually?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;When we focus on ourselves, on releasing what's not real inside; the phony, ego-driven pursuits and shallow desires, what begins to happen is that true happiness and direction begins to emerge. Shallow is fine; that's not meant to be a judgment. But it can only take us so far in terms of substantial happiness and wholeness. We all reach some point when it's just not "enough". Then, it's time for a change, and that requires a shift from being "outer directed" to inner sourcing. One begins to connect to the soul at the level of Spirit, and one's guides and "angels" continually attempt to communicate within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To receive help from the "invisible realms" from which we come, we must ask, due to free will. We're allowed to make our mistakes, without divine intervention, and guides cannot step in "on their own". The exception to this is if we are in mortal danger. Many are "saved" miraculously by angelic beings. The more we affirm the POSITIVE within, the faster we ascend out of our self-imposed darkness. It's like being in a protective bubble. Things are going to unravel as they do, and we can throw ourselves into the meat grinder and end up hamburger, or we can be spiritually "smart" and be the cow that got away; McDonalds - or FREEDOM. The life of a cow these days is pretty bleak!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What we call "evil", as a personification of our own weaknesses, is the result of our choices. By continuing to make the same "wrong" choice, a groove is created similar to that on a plastic record. Boy does THAT date me! As you move up the "Doctor Evil Ladder", you can see it's the result of increasing selfishness and ego/vanity. One must continue to make choices that remove property, health and life from others, in order to upset the natural balance to acquire it for oneself. This requires enormous justifications which are often instilled in secret fraternities and orders, which allow the members to feel increasingly "special". Further up, blackmail is the norm, and one must "do" things that are repugnant; such as murder, or destroying something; perhaps starting a war. As conscience erodes, one is rewarded for having done such great things (against humanity and earth), and one is placed in higher positions of power. Heady stuff. It's a chess game of power, really, and a few people think that the rest of the population is "expendable". In fact, there are numerous plans to eliminate 90% of the world's population due to contempt for their fellow man. That's another story!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One factor which is important to introduce is that ONE PERSON can, and DOES, CHANGE THE WORLD. By being our Authentic Selves, we literally alter and remove thousands of negative acts in the world, transforming darkness into light. This is the nature of being on the "Light" side. It only takes one candle to illuminate the darkness, but the darkness can never "extinguish" the Light. It is afraid of being exposed; this is why all "evil deeds" occur in secrecy or the cover of darkness or night. We have more "secret societies", secret alphabet soup agencies, and more secrecy in the military and government than has EVER happened in the history of mankind. This is a symptom of illness. It's a cancer that eats at the body of society. What started out as something positive, to "protect us", has turned into its own opposite and now has a life; many lives, of its own. There are agencies within agencies that don't know the others exist; it goes so deep that even the top military are not included unless there's a "need to know". The corporate interests run the world today, and have for decades. Don't be fooled. Follow the money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;QUESTION:&lt;br /&gt;It seems that the New Age movement is largely focused on creating "abundance". Films like The Secret encourage people to get more stuff. Comments?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Everything serves a purpose. There is no one right "answer" or formula that applies equally to all people. The Secret is just one small aspect of many hidden or esoteric truths, which is being presented as "the end all". Many people have never been inclined towards anything "spiritual" in their lives, and this movie opens a door, through the desire to "create abundance". Abundance is our natural state. In the Bible, there's a parable about feeding the birds and the flowers, and how they are taken care of. We have forgotten our invisible connection to the real Source of life, and have cut ourselves off from living, breathing things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've pretty much convinced ourselves that we're the only intelligent life form on the planet, and everything else is here for our abuse, including each other. Don't get me started on child abuse, rape and incest! Grocery stores package meat in beautiful, sterile antiseptic plastics, and we've forgotten that ALL life is sacred, and has spirit. In that way, we've really disconnected from our own spirit. Spirituality is simply being connected to your own spirit, and living authentically from the center, or Heart; not mind. Our Indian ancestors know this, and have prophesied this fork in the road for humanity. We're going over the cliff, but will we fly or self-destruct?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've literally boxed ourselves into a corner, and are at THE crossroads now. Even for those who don't believe a thing about life after death, or anything metaphysical, the fact is that we are at a point where humanity is about to become extinct. We have been throwing bones over our shoulders, like mighty Kings, and now the pile is about to bury us alive. I'm amazed that Earth, or Gaia, who is a living entity in her own right, has not rebelled sooner. She is in the process of shifting upwards to a higher evolutionary density; from 3rd density to 4th or higher. This is partially what the Mayan, Biblical, Cayce, and other Prophecies are about. That is why December 12, 2012 is considered significant: it's the literal crossing point into higher dimensions for the entire Universe. This unprecedented event has not been highly "successful" during past Harvests, or Shifts. But we have been given special assistance from many higher sources, to improve the number of people who make it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In any case, earth can no longer sustain us, and is dying. Look at the "dead spots" in the oceans, bees disappearing, animals becoming extinct, rivers and water becoming polluted, food scarcities, and more pollution each day. We are racing towards a brick wall. How we hit it is the only choice at this point; consciously and with awareness, or SMACK like a bug on a windshield.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the ULTIMATE Secret: The more you give of yourself without expectations, the more returns or "comes back" unexpectedly. This is how the Universe works. It is designed to be benevolent, empowering and loving. Just look at your four legged friends, and how all animals love us unconditionally, like to play and have fun together. Nature demonstrates great truths, and this is how we get along best. I'm not suggesting that we grow tails and wag, but we could learn a lot by being silent, loving each other, and having fun together. My dog loves everyone. If an axe murderer showed up at the door, she'd be jumping all over him (or her), wagging her tail and loving. That is unconditional love. It's also a model for us to follow. If we loved ourselves half as much as we do our furry friends, we'd be different people. I had a wealthy eccentric Aunt who used to ADORE her dogs so much, that they were fed at her table in chairs, yet she had contempt for people, and not much self-love. It doesn't have to be that way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, what we focus on we become. So, what is important to you? The way to figure this out easily is by asking yourself what excites you the most? And I'm not talking about sex here! What is your real PASSION in life? What turns you on, blows up your skirt, more than anything else? Most people talk themselves into NOT following their dreams, because "there's no time". By the time an 8 hour job is done, laundry, eating and sleep, there's so little time to recharge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can put ourselves back in the driver's seat when we realize that we can do anything we want, even quit our jobs, and we'll be fine. There's always a way to follow your bliss, and work on it; even if it's just an hour a day. The real secret of success is in shifting your goals from the generic "to make a good living", to doing what makes you HAPPY. When we do what brings us happiness, the money is no longer important. Plus, we do things WELL that we love doing, and eventually, we get compensated in the "currency du jour". As for the power of "Creation", try creating happiness with what you have now. Buddha was right when he said that desire is the beginning of man's suffering. Eliminate desire and there is nothing left but freedom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;Why do you think so many people turn to alcohol, drugs and prescriptions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Everyone is sensing the energetic changes. We all feel that something is going on, but we can't put our finger on it. When faced with some of the bleak prospects today, it seems reasonable to want to have FUN, rather than work your ass off in a corporate job only to be kept in place for decades, then fired because your "gay" or incompetent. The world is going to Hell in a hand basket! Where I see the problem with drugs, especially speed, they're being used as a replacement for living. It starts out being "fun", then turns into a self-destructive subculture and you don't realize it's happening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the big danger with Tina; denial. I thought I was just "fine", even though my using had increased to several injections per day. Everyone ELSE was f*cked up, not me! And to some extent, that's true. But what I didn't see, being a tree in the forest, was that my own spirit was dying. I was locked into the first two lowest chakras: the 1st and 2nd, which have to do with survival and sex. We have 12 chakras available, so being stuck on two is really being "stuck on stupid". If you're not aware of the Hindu chakra system, that's an interesting area to research. The good news is that we have it within our power to change course instantly. For me, it took many bricks on my head for me to "get it". But it doesn't have to be that way. We can also learn from the experiences of others; that's called wisdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;What do you think of the gay culture or subculture today?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;To be truthful, I don't really know much about it. I've always "danced" in the subculture with glee. Bath houses in the 60's, Disco and Sylvester in the 70's, clubs in the 80's, and drug abuse in the 90's. After several "spiritual awakenings", I've chosen to live in my own little world for some years now. Unless you're young and in a big city, being gay is just not a "happening thing". In marketing my book, I've been reading some of the gay media, and it seems for the most part to be pretty much like the rest of life: superficial. In other words, it's about gorgeous bodies, movie stars, and fashion; all titillation for the senses. I wouldn't be surprised to see Gay American Idol soon on television, but you heard it here first, folks, so I want some royalties!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seriously, I'm not criticizing the lack of obvious spirituality in today's media, since it is largely corporate owned and run. They do what SELLS. It's all about money and revenue: the bottom line. And, it's a double edged sword; they also create a narrow beam or focus for us to experience. But we're spirit having a human experience, and spirit doesn't give a HOOT about money! It wants to have fun, to experience all that life has to offer, and to be FREE above all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, on this planet of the galaxy, it takes more and more money to have the illusion of freedom. What we consider freedom is really a sandbox. We only move into slightly bigger sand boxes, and convince ourselves that we're happy. The drama experienced with relationships and life says otherwise. This is why traditional religion is crumbling. There is little substance to it, and what has been adopted as "truths" from God is really just man's judgment hiding behind a book or a pulpit. Without the solidity of knowing our own spirit, and having some grounding in Reality, everything around us is destined to disappoint, sooner or later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I continue to hear that many prominent "preachers" or priests claim that homosexuality is a sin to God. Poppycock! This is, of course, a lie perpetuated by those who are terrified of their own sexuality. As we all know, those who protest the loudest are often the WORST offenders "in secret". So, there's a lot of hypocrisy, and I can understand why religion doesn't serve us any more: it's all form and no Substance. This is why I prefer to "pick and choose very carefully", as Mrs. Dasher might say, the aspects of various teachings that resonate for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This might include Zen Buddhism, Taoism, Christ's teachings, as well as the teachings of many Avatars and sages throughout the ages. When you begin to look into matters of spirit, it opens up fascinating new worlds to explore. We're really beginning to catch a spiritual wave, a literal tidal wave, and those who can ride it to shore will be whooping and hollering in ecstasy. Spirituality offers a cornucopia, a literal smorgasbord of fantastic waters to dip our feet into, and we can take a little from here, a little from there, and create our OWN reality; we are doing that anyway, why not tailor it to our own preferences and to HELL with consensus reality!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many great spiritual teachers alive today, but do we ever hear about them in the mainstream media? As the energies shift from materialism to spirit getting closer to 2012, we'll see the nature of life shift before our eyes. There will be much more heart, compassion and love for one another, and it all starts with one person: you/me. We are ultimately all One.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;With over 24 years, living with HIV/AIDS, do you do anything "special" in terms of diet, prayer or meditation to increase your longevity?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Nope. I drink too much coffee, eat red meat, and don't meditate! I'm too impatient to meditate, and prayer always seems so "weird". I think when we pray, we're really praying to our Selves, or our Higher Selves, though I do believe in an unfathomable God/Goddess/All That Is. Life, if lived rightly, IS a living prayer, a living meditation. There's no need to do anything "special", when you're already doing it right. What does the awakened Zen Master do upon gaining enlightenment? Chop wood. Carry water. Everything changes and everything stays the same. It's a shift in perspective, but it does require some effort on our part. It's not handed to us on a gold platter, which I think is one reason why so many choose the "easy way". Yet, there is no escaping the basic lessons that every soul must learn; we're only postponing the inevitable by avoiding or denying the truth. Why not make it really easier, and start being honest with ourselves?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I DO listen to my intuition, and advise learning how to differentiate between the many "inner voices". For example, imagine being at a horror movie, and the girl is about to put her hand on the closet door and open it, and WE know the horrors that wait behind that door. Every person says to him or herself, "DON'T OPEN THAT DOOR!" Well, our own intuition is very similar. There may be a thought to do something simple, and our "gut feeling" informs us, usually without words, not to. We do it anyway, and end up dropping a glass which shatters on the floor. It's like that. We "knew it" would happen. I listen to the message and follow it, even if I don't know that I WOULD have dropped a glass. We don’t know what might have happened had we NOT listened, and we ALWAYS know what happens when we don't, just like the girl opening the closet door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's that big "AHA" inside that says, "I told you so!" So, by realizing in advance that this is an "I knew that would happen" moment, we can avoid making so many silly mistakes, which creates certainty. Every once in a while, we have to make a mistake, to get us back on track, and to validate that when we don't listen to our intuition, there are always consequences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over time, this builds up our "psychic muscles". We become invisibly buffed! I'll take that over ripped abs any day. Well, maybe 6 days out of the week… what we focus on, we become. I'd like to share one more valuable tool in the spiritual chest, before we end. And that is to keep your word, no matter what. Our word is our power. Actually, it begins prior to our thoughts, but for practical purposes, when we say we'll do something and don't, that is a loss of our integrity. Integrity is like money in the spiritual bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people keep drawing their money out, then live on credit. Sooner or later, it catches up with you. By telling the truth, we save enormous energy, and when we keep our word, it builds a kind of personal power which grows, because we KNOW that we'll do what we say, or will make other arrangements. Our word can literally move mountains. That is an invaluable tool for living a happy life. If I had to sum up all the advice I have, it would be this: Love yourself, BE yourself, and follow your BLISS. Period. Don't worry about what others think about you, because others are even more worried about what YOU think about THEM!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last Question:&lt;br /&gt;Where do you get your information? What are your sources?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Many years ago, I joined a cult, an esoteric school, studying the ideas of G.I. Gurdjieff and P.D. Ouspensky, two of the greatest men of their day. In San Francisco, I did Werner Erhard's EST Training, his Six Day, and the gay version, the Advocate Experience. All of them were transformational. Today, I'm an internet junkie. About 3 years ago, I discovered some great Yahoo groups, and by participating learned a lot, and many doors opened. For over two years I've hosted my own "New Age" radio show at BBS Radio. To prepare for the interviews, which are all people I admire and want to speak to, I read as many of their books as possible. So, I get exposed to a LOT of interesting and "out of the box" ideas this way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last, I listen to internet radio, such as Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, Whitley Strieber's Unknown Country, and others that are fringe or "underground". The truth is out there, but you have to dig for it. The mainstream media is controlled, and we only get what our "controllers" want us to. Besides, the internet can be like a Ouija board, without the dire consequences. When you open a window, it's not necessarily to a dark, parallel universe. I won't touch a Ouija board because I do believe that some things are best left alone. That's one of them. As Dame Edna might say, Spooky, Possums!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;END OF PART TWO INTERVIEW&lt;br /&gt;=========================== &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-3653632465556716099?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/3653632465556716099/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=3653632465556716099' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3653632465556716099'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3653632465556716099'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/03/questions-and-answers-with-lb-white.html' title='Questions and Answers with L.B White, Part Two'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R9tQNlbOAUI/AAAAAAAAAPc/0aX9tnZCgPA/s72-c/Zen+Garden.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-3598158827633366839</id><published>2008-03-13T12:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-13T13:13:12.804-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Interview'/><title type='text'>Q &amp; A with L.B.

Gloria Swanson&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Questions and Answers with L.B White, author&lt;br /&gt;Tales of a Zany Mystic at www.amazon.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;Whatever prompted you to write such an "intimate" account of your life being born to two bisexual "bohemian" parents, warts and all?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Over 30 years ago a psychic, who was the "real deal", told me that I would publish a book. My response must have been lackluster because she stopped right then and there in the reading and emphasized: "I don't think you understand what I'm saying. I'm telling you that you write a book, because it is!" From that day forward, her prediction haunted me. Over the years, many people told me I "should write a book", and it created many a night of guilt, feeling that I was not fulfilling "my purpose". I didn't realize that all of my experiences, outside the fringes of society, were destined to be part of that tale. Each of us is living our own miraculous tale at every moment, and can embrace every second as having brought us to where we are right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also wanted to provide inspiration for my human family of all colors, creeds, stations in life, and especially those who are gay and lesbian, transgender and "other". This includes addicts, alcoholics and the downtrodden, who have often been my closest friends in life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You are a long-term survivor, with over 24 years living with HIV/AIDS. You claim to know how and when you were infected. Tell us about that moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Oh that. Yes… Well, I can trace my initial "sero-conversion" to 1983because that's when I went through a 3 part Hepatitis B vaccination trial through the San Francisco City Clinic. I had gone in because of something else, and they were recruiting people for the study and promised free follow-up blood work and medical care. What I didn't know at the time was that the HIV virus was slipped in with the vaccine intentionally, in New York and San Francisco, as part of a global project to eliminate "the undesirables". This has been documented now, and can easily be verified. It's called genocide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was so naïve! I didn't find out until some years later, when the Physician who was following everyone in the studies for decades, told me offhandedly that I had sero-converted at that time, since my first tube of blood was not infected, yet the second tube was. In other words, within a matter of one month, after receiving the first "vaccination", I became Positive. It didn't occur to me at all about the possibility of nefarious activities. It would be many years later, through a close buddy, that I would be told about this. Nonetheless, it went over my head, and seemed moot in any case. It was a "blonde moment".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another decade or so would pass before I began reading the truth from a variety of spiritual leaders, including Dr. Len Horowitz, Drunvalo Melchezedik, and other "way showers" of note. A simple Google search now brings up all the pertinent information. I realize that many people are in major denial about our government being behind something so atrocious, but many of us know that our own government has been doing this stuff since before we were born. In fact, if you really want to curl your hair, watch Alex Jones' movie, Endgame, or read a book or two by David Icke or Jim Marrs. In spite of all my years of self-abuse, it's amazing that I've never had an opportunistic infection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;How did you feel?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;At first, I was so angry! Eventually, I had to forgive everyone, when I realized that having a "death sentence" hanging over my head all those years had really helped me to "live in the now", in the moment, fully and spiritually. Had I not been infected, I doubt that I would have discovered or sought a spiritual path of awakening. So, I'm fully cognizant and out of denial, and I thank those who were the cause. Today, I believe that our soul is infinite and eternal, and that death and birth are Maya, or illusions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We set up our lives from the "other side" for the maximum benefit to self and other, in accordance with many "higher Plans" which are all nested within each other. This is the economy of the Universe. Nothing is lost or wasted. Nothing. And, there are no accidents. None.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You share explicit details of your intimate relationships with men, including your first "true love". Weren't you concerned about limiting your readership?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Absolutely not! First, I don't really care about material things, I'm a spirit wrapped in flesh for experience, here to be of service to others. That was one major realization after having lived such a decadent and selfish life. Second, I don't really give a rat's ass about what "the mainstream media", which is largely controlled, or "society" thinks about me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been ridiculed, hated and judged since childhood, as most humans are. It's time for everyone, and I'm starting with ME, to stop hating ourselves, embrace our sexuality, speak our own truths, and find the love and acceptance within. It's vital to our health and aliveness that we forgive our parents, peers and ourselves, for all that judgment which we've accepted "willy nilly". It's a burden that can be cast aside now. I discovered that I really do love myself, warts and all! That is essential for all to grow spiritually; the bottom line to life is: love yourself, BE yourself and follow your bliss! Suffering is unnecessary baggage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You sound very optimistic. Are you one of those "light and love feel goodies?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Hardly! I get very upset about many things going on in the world; for example, chemtrails! And, today in Iran, gay youth is hung by the neck in a noose, openly in public just for being gay. This is OUTRAGEOUS! Imagine going to the shopping mall, and finding two teenage boys hanging dead by the neck, for no apparent reason, other than being suspected for being gay. Love is love, and it matters little who loves who!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we unite on anything at all, it seems this is a vital cause to bring into the open, into the light of day; that the Creator or "God", if you will, loves all of its creation, even the dark side, equally. There are no exceptions to this truth, because if it were otherwise, God would be judging Itself! That is simply not possible since God is literally "All That Is". We create judgment on this side of the veil, in our limited 3D awareness. This is changing exponentially, as people from all walks of life AWAKEN. We all awaken to the same truths; that all is One, and we are part of the same fabric of life. We cannot hate anyone else, or create PEACE using Violence and WAR, because we are hating and bombing our Selves. What we do to another we do to our Selves. There are no "others".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avatars from the beginning of time have told us these simple truths, but we tend to ignore them, and remain in DENIAL about almost everything in order to justify our weaknesses. Part of the reason is that media today is controlled, and we don't really get the truth: that we are all Creators in Training, and our training wheels are about to be removed. However, I also realize that in order to change anything "out there" it all starts and ends within, with me. There really is nothing out there, but the mirror for us to see ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How clearly we view the mirror is a matter of choice. Some don't even know there IS a mirror. Also, everything happens for a reason, and I acknowledge that I am not capable of comprehending the really "big picture". That is a matter for God/Goddess/All That Is. Otherwise, all "answers" are already within us. We have but to listen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;Who are your Teachers or Gurus?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B.White:&lt;br /&gt;Our lives are our best Gurus; everything is right there under our noses, when we learn to listen to the "inner intuitive voice". Astrologically, we just entered the shift from masculine energies, which have ruled here for decades, to the feminine intuitive side. This will create many changes, and we see this reflected in our future leaders, though they are all cut from the same cloth. The two party system is a sham. It's a matter of who the "elite" choose to place (or remove) from power. Look at Kennedy and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I chased after an esoteric school, a "Teacher", only to end up disillusioned when I discovered, after having left the school, that he had been seducing and blackmailing the male members (and their underage sons) into having sex with him. I never figured it out, though in retrospect it seems clear. He had everyone fooled, like most people in power who are hypocrites. Look at Larry Craig and others who are falling like flies in public restrooms and secret "trysts". This is a time of "revelations".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You write about your experience being a gay drug dealer to the "Party and Play" scene in the late 1990's to early 2000s. Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;I want to be an inspiration for others, who might feel "stuck" or that there's no way out. There was a time when I literally had to shoot up several times a day. Speed is an epidemic that's out of control, "off the hook", and it destroys many lives, sometimes through death. I've seen it all up close and personal. I also think it's important to know what a clever "Seductress" Tina is. I'll share a brief moment about my own beginnings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was living in the Portrero Hill District, in a tiny 200 square foot apartment when I first discovered Tina, speed, methamphetamine. I was in my late 40's, and hadn't realized how much "fun" sex could be. I figured, after having lived with HIV for about 18 years, that I'd be dead soon, so I was going to die with a (expletive removed) grin on my face! I decided to burn the candle at both ends, and everyone else's end too. As I rose in the ranks of dealers, by being honest, and just having fun, it seemed that one thing just led to another. Before I knew it, I was "the man" - in more ways than one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't regret one moment of it, including the horrible times, and I wanted to shed light into one of the most closely guarded secrets of our own gay closet: drugs and the "PNP" scene. I want to "demystify" and not glorify what a dealer's life is like. I'd always been curious myself; though as a middle class gay white boy, never thought in a zillion years I'd end up doing it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How was it? As Divine says in the movie, Female Trouble, "it was a wild ride…" which includes a lot of unusual experiences. Eventually, as I write in the book, I was warned by an angel that the party was coming to an end, which it did with my first arrest in 2001. It took five long years for all his "prophetic warnings" to come true, and I felt that there must be a reason I was going through so much hardship. While in jail, I had a "spiritual awakening", which was to be one of many. During that time, many things were revealed to me; one important message was that I was here to inspire others along the way. It wasn't necessary to actively pursue this path, but to simply be myself and Spirit would guide me. It has, and it does. I'm learning how to listen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As long as we're consumed by desires, and sex is a powerful force, spirit cannot guide us effectively. Many nights without sleep, food and water contribute to a spiritual vacuum which sucks the life out of us faster than a Hoover or any trick could do. It also weakens the aura, and allows "entity attachments, on the psychic level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You speak with an "urgency" and certainty about these things; why is that and where do you get your information?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;For the last four years, while I was writing my book, I was also doing research on the spiritual movement, focusing on "New Age" ideas. When I began doing the radio show, I was "primed", so to speak. It was like being a traveler on the road, exploring new lands, and wondering what was around the next bend. I've always been curious to know truth. Of course, that became a new "addiction", but I figured that it was a positive addiction, and that it was "OK" to swap it for my negative ones that were taking me nowhere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I began asking people who I admired, who seemed to have respect in the spiritual community, to be on my show. One guest was Carl Johan Calleman, who lives in England and who is a foremost scholar on Mayan civilization. He believes the end of their calendar occurs in 2011, not 2012, and there's a bit of a "debate", to put it nicely, in scholarly circles. I've also had many on the show who have spoken about life after death. The most notable are Dannion Brinkley, who was hit by lightning twice, went through the tunnel of light, and was given messages to bring back. It turned out many were prophetic, and have come true. He also had heightened psychic abilities, and could heal people and read them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another was PMH Atwater, who wrote The Big Book Of Near Death Experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've had dozens of people on the show say the same basic thing: these are miraculous times. But the many will have great difficulty by clinging to the past. There will be nothing to cling to. And material wealth becomes obsolete. So, all that scrambling to have more possessions or better "lovers" than the next person, to feel secure about yourself, isn't going to cut it. That's all ego-driven and keeps us mired in illusion, in our own versions of Gay American Idol. We need to connect to our Authentic Selves and be truthful, have integrity, and begin loving all that is, starting with ourselves. You'd be startled to discover how many people hate themselves, or feel inadequate or bad. That's simply not true. We need to shine a light inside to see, and only we can light that candle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most startling was book was written by Helen Littrel, who has become a close friend. She wrote Raechel's Eyes. It's an autobiographical account, assisted with hypnotic regression, to discover that her daughter Marissa, who was almost blind, had a roommate who was an ET-earth hybrid. Raechel's "Dad" was an Air Force Colonel who had been allowed to adopt her, to see how she might integrate into our society. It's an amazing tale, and opened my eyes about many things that we usually "pooh pooh".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To get back to the Mayan Calendar: the reason why it's so important to "get the message out" that it's time for us to clean up our acts and align with our soul's purpose for being here, is because we're literally running out of time. This is 2008, and energetically we're in the 5th Night which lasts from November 19th, 2007 to November 2008. It's not "chance" that is also the year of political elections. This is an accelerated time for humanity, and is our darkest hour. Calleman predicts, as do many others, there will be a global financial collapse before the end of the year, and many other disturbing events will come to the fore. We can't deal with what's coming, what's really here now, if we're partying and playing. This is not "business as usual".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are very few gay spokespersons who are sharing this information freely. It's a disservice, in a way, but I'm trying to get the word out. If you feel like you may be on the wrong track, or are not following your dreams, it's time to make changes. And for those who have difficulty "buying" the idea that there might be major changes on the horizon, that's fine; it's still wise to change in a positive direction because it allows us to live our dreams, in alignment with our soul's purpose for coming here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;From an early age you seem to have been on a spiritual quest. What have you discovered?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;I joined an "esoteric school" in the mid-1970's, studying the ideas of G.I. Gurdjieff and P.D. Ouspensky. They were all about raising consciousness and being present. This was long before the "New Age" movement, which is rapidly becoming an "old age" movement! The Teacher of the school was worshiped by all, but when he gave me a "personal task" of not having sex with any of the male students, that brought up all my issues: Why should being attracted to my own sex, inhibit spiritual growth? Rather than figuring it out while in the school, I chose to leave and sink into an alcoholic depression, living the life of a perfect fag: two gay alcoholic roommates, copper pots, and a buffed Queen going to the gym every day. It was one of many "bumps in the night", or I should say moments of UNclarity, in which I had to hit my head against a brick wall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I've discovered is that as members of the gay family, as well as any who have been "rejected" by society, we have chosen our paths prior to incarnating, hardships and all, for the enormous spiritual benefit. Gay folks are far more balanced in the left male "logical" side of the brain, and the right feminine "intuitive" side. Once that connection is made, we close an internal circuit, which awakens us to higher intuitive awareness. I feel this is an advantage today, during these energetically shifting times. Most gays are actually more balanced, which could put us a nanosecond ahead of the pack.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;You write about the coming Shift in Consciousness, and connect that to Mayan and other ancient prophecies. Tell us more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;We're in "the Shift" right NOW! There are numerous "cosmic cycles" coming to an end simultaneously, some that have lasted billions of years. It's like an enormous clock ticking to midnight, or like an odometer turning over to ZERO, and they all end at the same moment when the planets align and we tip into another dimension. This has happened many times over the 4.5 billion years our loving planet has hosted humanity and races from other worlds. How do you think mankind got here in the first place? The moment this happens is well known: December 21, 2012. Many people think it's the "end of the world", but the Mayans and others, such as Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus, the Sumerians, the Hopi Indians, the Hindu Vedas, Biblical "Revelations", and others alive today, all agree this is a significant turning point for humanity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People refer to the Mayan calendar, which was not really one calendar, but numerous cosmic clocks, like wheels, each one with its own distinct time and "flavor". According to the Mayans, and I'll boil this down to the simplest terms, we are now at the end of a 13,000 year recurring cycle which is a time of the greatest darkness on the planet, or "disconnect from spirit", as well as the time of rejuvenation, or the Golden Age. The Hindus also believe in many "ages" of mankind. We are at the end of the age, when mankind has an unprecedented opportunity to be transformed. This is the result, as in other times such as Atlantis, Lemuria and Noah, of a shift from 3rd density or dimension into the 4th, 5th and higher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a time of great CHAOS and rebirth. "Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a BUMPY night!" Bette Davis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;To what do you attribute your longevity with HIV/AIDS, and do you take meds?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Good question! Well, the real answer is that I'm here because my time isn't "up" yet, and I have unfinished business. I firmly believe in a loving Creator, who does not judge or micromanage our lives. It may seem as if it is outside of us, but experience has demonstrated, and spiritual teachers all agree, that Spirit/God is within each of us, and we are "in it". It's a cosmic paradox. I think we have greater access to our own soul, or spirit, and the Higher Self which is the higher manifestation of the many souls which comprise "us", outside of time and space. We are really multidimensional beings of light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for meds, I flushed my AZT down the toilet in the 1980's, and didn't take any meds again until about three years ago. I attribute having listened to my own body, which told me I was dying from the AZT, and in a moment of clarity I thought, "If this is what life is like, I'd rather be dead." I didn't die, however, much to my surprise. In fact, I immediately began to feel MUCH better, and more alive. It would be another 20 years or so before I looked at taking meds again. I'm now on one of the HIV "cocktails", but it's definitely not as much fun as a martini!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I kept on living, year after year after year - in spite of my debauchery, alcoholism, car accidents, overdoses and shooting up speed, I finally got the brick in the head: I'm here for a reason! I may not know the reason(s), but I know that's how it works here. I've also learned that many souls and higher beings have incarnated on earth at this time to assist with the transition or Shift, which we are in now. The Indigo, Crystal and Rainbow children are one example of higher beings choosing to assist "the older folks" with their wisdom and grace. Many reading this now are probably Indigo or Crystal kids.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything is a matter of choice, including how fast we awaken to our own inner truth. It's all perfectly timed to the nanosecond, and we cannot leave before our time, nor can we extend it beyond our own choices. We're born, and we die. What we do in between is our own doing; might as well do the very best we can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;Why do you think we're here?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;Discovering our soul's purpose for being here is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. Earth is a great, living and loving school for soul growth into love and compassion. It begins with taking responsibility for our lives, and not pretending to be victims, which is one of the acts we enjoy. It's our dirty little secret, and part of the denial of spirit, which keeps us playing small. In truth, we are great beings of light and love, eternal and infinite, and we are all One Family. That is the "bottom line" to all the prophecies which speak about the same moments in time. They are all one prophecy, many interpretations. Our beliefs color our lives, and they actually create the very fabric of life. Change the belief and everything "outside" shifts. It has to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that everyone who is here today on the planet, is here by choice. The reason we are so over populated is because many souls have and are incarnating to experience and assist with the dramatic shift in consciousness and dimension, the influx of Divine Energies, which may happen at any moment. And it will happen seemingly in the "twinkling of an eye". Some think that "one person will be standing, and another will disappear. I believe we are all part of a larger body of light beings, which will merge into a Higher Body, and be raised or lifted cosmically, to the highest level we can achieve. It all depends upon our own vibration. It's not whimsical, and each soul is unique and retains its own "flavor".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are not our bodies, our senses, our "roles", our sexuality or anything else of the senses. We are spirit having a human experience. Everything we do is recorded Holographically in the Akashic Records, and we get to play it all back from 3 different perspectives when we cross over: our own, everyone we've hurt or helped, and an "omniscient" overview, all without judgment, just "what's so", as it really is. The feelings we've felt, and those of everyone else we've affected, we get to experience. So, literally nothing is concealed, and in that sense we get to see how we might have done "better".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Absolutely nothing is hidden or concealed. We live our lives as if we are all separate, hiding our own acts, thoughts and emotions. But nothing is concealed in the end. Once we wake up to this fact, it changes everything. We begin to live life from the perspective of our "legacy" of heart, love and compassion, knowing it will all be experienced by us on the "other side".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question:&lt;br /&gt;In your boo, you talk about some of the guests on your radio show. How did that come about?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B. White:&lt;br /&gt;A little over two years ago, someone wrote me an email asking if I'd like to host my own radio show. It turned out to be Don Newsom, the owner of BBS Radio. I thought about it for a day, and decided it would be nuts not to give it a try, so I said "yes". My life has never been the same. It was definitely a turning point. For one thing, I was deeply involved with research into all the "new age" concepts floating around, quantum physics, prophecy and so on. I was fortunate in being able to get Jean-Claude Koven, who wrote a marvelous fictional book called Going Deeper, as my first real guest. From there, it seemed like one door after another magically opened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since, I've had some of the most famous spiritual "heavyweights" on my show, sharing their experiences. Let me tell you, it's "eye opening". There's a LOT more going on in this little old world than we permit ourselves to experience - or even know about. My show is about raising awareness and consciousness, and we all participate together: me, guest, and listener as one. I can actually "feel" the energies over the air; it's captured in the shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not a big self-promoter, so I'm not going to open Pandora's Box. I'll just say that for those who are curious, my show is called A Fireside Chat With Zany Mystic, and it airs at www.bbsradio.com live and free each Saturday night at 7:00 p.m. pst. (California time). I think this is a good place to segue out of the interview. I appreciate the opportunity to share myself in this way. Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you, and best of luck on the book!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L.B White is a long-term survivor of AIDS, with over 24 years, against all odds.

It was a forward of a forward of a forward, which many loving souls had been moved by and wanted to share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, like so many efforts which begin with good intent, this one was flawed. The subject line read, &lt;strong&gt;Please RSVP!&lt;/strong&gt; That was the first indication that someone was already making demands on my time, energy and space; something that required a response. There is an exclamation mark to add emphasis and urgency. Above the picture were the words, &lt;strong&gt;"This is the sacred angel". &lt;/strong&gt;You're going to wonder, "What's wrong with THAT?" Words are not the thing themselves. They are interpretations and symbols for "what is". They are distortions. By labeling everything, we've boxed ourselves into a paradigm: no longer are we allowed to think for ourselves. We are told point blank what everything IS, and what is MEANS. This is the great problem with television. We are literally brainwashed to think and buy what we are told, and we become "uncomfortable" when we are silent and not told what to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From one point of view, there is no such thing as an angel. Angel is a label that we have agreed to place on invisible spiritual beings beyond our comprehension. Centuries of baggage are carried upon the shoulders of words. Take God for instance. The moment you read that word, there's an instantaneous interpretation that's very personal. It's usually something outside of oneself. Some are repelled, others are neutral, and many have some kind of favorable image or belief system centered around that word. Angel is similar. If we regard an angel as a spiritual being of light, then we are ALL angels, since we are all spiritual beings of light, like it or not. What does the word "sacred" imply? It implies that some things are sacred, and everything else is NOT. This is also a distortion of Reality. Literally everything is sacred in the sense that it is infused with Higher Energies, and is part of All That Is. When we view ourselves as not being sacred, we have no respect for life in human form. This underpins our ability to send people into wars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the problems with our old paradigm of duality is that we make distinctions between what's sacred and not sacred, living and dead, right and wrong, black and white, good and bad and so on. Nothing is "either or". With the concept or belief that there are some things that are sacred and others are not, we set ourselves up to be "less than" that which we believe to be higher. And that, dear friends, sets us up further to worship things, objects, beliefs, and concepts. But all of those creations are in the 3D material world, and are not of themselves the thing being referred to. We are "spiritualizing" some things over other things, when spirit is in all things, and does not, cannot, discriminate or judge. Worshiping places us in a subservient position in which we are not worthy. I’m not saying that reverence and respect and awe are not called for in relation to The Infinite Light and all its manifestations. I'm saying that it's time for us to stand on our own two feet as equals, worthy of respect and LOVE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've had centuries to try on the idea of self-deprecation and "unworthiness", which is perpetuated by powerful religions which make mega-bucks to keep everyone subservient. Religion is not about God, it's about subservience. When we awaken to our own soul's purpose, in alignment with All That Is, the need to categorize and label sloughs off like a scab that has served its purpose. It's time for all of us to HEAL. We know our place in the scheme of things, and we follow our hearts joyfully. Pain, suffering and bloodshed never were very good models for us to imitate. They have, on the contrary, assisted the "Powers That Be" in perpetuating eternal war - both outer and inner. There can be no peace or healing where there is division and duality. Ultimately, we must heal the separations within us, practice forgiveness and love; first for our Selves. Until that occurs, we cannot truly love or forgive another; it becomes a hollow gesture of going through the motions. In that instance, we become actors on a stage, lying to others because we cannot look at ourselves. Ultimately, there is no "other". There is only One Being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Underneath the picture were these words: &lt;strong&gt;You MUST pass this angel on to at least 3 people within the hour of receiving this email. &lt;/strong&gt;Besides the obvious demand made on the viewer, which I call "emotional blackmail", there is an implicit element of control and domination. Someone "out there" is demanding that we do something. Someone's ego is projecting outwards to control and manipulate others, even though the intent may begin as a good one. This is an example of how something GOOD turns into something else, and everything has the potential to turn into its own opposite. There is also an unspoken, or veiled THREAT implied, as if something might happen if you do not send it to at least 3 people. We cannot force love on other people. When it becomes a mechanical response and an obligation, it no longer comes from the heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone is attempting to play GOD, demanding that we do something that THEY feel we should do. Isn't that the basis for most present day religions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next are these lines:&lt;strong&gt; After you do, make a wish. If you have passed it on, your wish will come true and love will come your way shortly.&lt;/strong&gt; The carrot and the stick routine! Wishful thinking, loosely based upon our power to create from nothing, and the "reward" which will happen IF we do X, Y and Z. More manipulation. Sounds a lot like NESARA! There's no responsibility for one's actions there. No effort to create an intention and be responsible for it. The "message" continues: &lt;strong&gt;Send this to all your good friends online to show them you are friends.&lt;/strong&gt; Friendship is not based upon who sends the most pictures to someone else. True friendship means being truthful, honest, and caring; no matter what. It might include saying things in a thoughtful way that are difficult to say. It may require doing things that are inconvenient. It is many things, but it is not based upon becoming a human octopus and sending pictures all day long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More: &lt;strong&gt;Remember, no man or woman is a failure who has a friend!&lt;/strong&gt; More duality: basing failure or success upon how many people are one's friends. There is no such thing as failure or success. They are illusions - concepts we use to judge ourselves and others, mostly based upon material gain and how much "stuff" one is able to collect. My neighbor's motto is, "A man is measured by the number of toys he has when he dies." He truly believes that's how life works. No comment. Back to the picture of a spirit being, floating over water. The most important point is this: we need to be allowed to THINK and FEEL for OURSELVES!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When others continually project their own limitations onto everything, there is no space for us to see and be with "what is". The picture is not really an angel, but a floating white thing that looks like a spirit. One could as easily say it's a GHOST! Even that is inadequate. The most POTENT way to create impact, is to simply send the picture - without schmaltzy quasi-religious sayings, without the falderal, threats and rewards implied, and especially without demands. Let the picture speak for ITSELF.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Give others the benefit of being able to interpret and feel their OWN feelings!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know about you, but I prefer not to place unnecessary demands on my friends. There's nothing wrong with asking for advice, help or opinions. But to demand that my friends drop everything, race to find more people to "infect with inspiration", creates a domino effect of tension and guilt. If you do NOT send it, don't you usually have just an inkling of guilt about breaking the chain? About disappointing your "friend" or relative, who also may demand that you also send it back to them! Life becomes even more frantic and limited as we spin our wheels like hamsters in a cage. Let us give each other the SPACE to just BE… who we are, what we are, in every moment. Let us be aware of making demands upon one another, and raise our awareness and consciousness about the subtle implications of everything we do. Not only must we think for ourselves, we are wise to think about how we affect and impact others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the beginning of true friendship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;… space ……… to be&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-3406376383778636136?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/3406376383778636136/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=3406376383778636136' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3406376383778636136'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3406376383778636136'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/01/angel-for-you.html' title='An Angel for You'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5pe7zH1KgI/AAAAAAAAAO8/0ulAzcjVqA0/s72-c/Angel+on+Water.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-4903721424287482384</id><published>2008-01-19T14:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-01-19T15:14:01.509-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cosmic egg'/><title type='text'>School of Celestial Seasonings</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5KBFFzKV1I/AAAAAAAAAO0/zmmq74lPINA/s1600-h/omelet.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157326447748732754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5KBFFzKV1I/AAAAAAAAAO0/zmmq74lPINA/s400/omelet.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5KAZVzKV0I/AAAAAAAAAOs/ucgWkL1SSvM/s1600-h/Celestial-seasonings_logo-2005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157325696129455938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5KAZVzKV0I/AAAAAAAAAOs/ucgWkL1SSvM/s400/Celestial-seasonings_logo-2005.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each of us is a highly trained specialist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all Masters of Light. The significant and temporary difference between us is our state of remembering. Regardless of apparent differences and judgments, we all "make it" in the end. This is also referred to as awakening. There is no hierarchy here; we are not divided into categories and ranks, such as "Super Lightworker Extraordinaire", or "Superior Human Angelic". There are differences is timing, and timing is something we choose at the soul level to pace ourselves. Everything that happens in our lives is a matter of choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eventually, all return to Source. As we ascend the ladder of consciousness, we begin discovering similar truths. We each retain our unique views, but they become increasingly single-pointed and shared. We are what we love and we love what we focus on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One way to ascend more rapidly is to release, allow and receive. There is a time for everything and everything has its proper timing. All great comedians have perfected the art of perfect timing, and synchronicity lights our paths. There are no accidents, and each soul that comes into our lives is there intentionally. If we are to see clearly, it's important to see without colored glasses. Feelings of self-doubt, fears and insecurities are distortions of the truth. Not only are we non-local expressions of the infinite Creator, we are unique sparks which have incarnated since the beginning of time. Additionally, we have specialized training from the highest Realms of Light in a vast array of roles. We continue to receive assistance from "the other side", and have before, during and after this particular incarnation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This means that we have not only chosen this incarnation for its lessons, but we have been chosen because we are the only souls who can perform our particular roles. Before anyone starts to get uptight and question if they are now doing the "right thing", we are always doing the right thing. With or without conscious awareness, every act, thought and emotion is an emanation from our soul. How we choose to experience the moment depends upon our alignment with the highest good, which is related to the variable of consciousness.  As we are presently "veiled", the impact will be felt most when we are restored to full consciousness.  Each soul is a unique vibration, which resonates to specific frequencies. Those frequencies are now being broadcast more intensely, and we are being fine tuned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not a time to try and "fit in", be like everyone else, except insofar as it promotes harmony. Letting go of ego includes letting go of the feeling of being "special", and releasing feelings of NOT being special. Our self-deprecating attitudes are equally ego-sourced. As we awaken, we begin to perceive realities emanating from interconnected matrices of light; many will have "altered states".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as we are actors on a stage, so too is the person crossing the street; the Wall Street executive, the crack addicts and yes, even politicians! The difference is a matter of timing; and timing affects perception. As we move into heart-based service to others, away from the fractured identities of acquisition in the material realms, an alignment occurs with our soul's true purpose. In some ways, we can say that we are aligning with cosmic Archetypes of Beauty, Truth, Love, Wisdom, to name a few. The more we resonate authentically within, the more these archetypes awaken and shine like the stars we are. This is the process of illumination. In paintings, the Saints have halos over their heads. It's a golden white aura of light, which is due to the illumination of Spirit with Divine Particles. These particles are presently invisible to scientific exploration, though through inference they are known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quantum physics has yet to be able to penetrate to this level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can penetrate all levels within, using higher intuitive senses and the third eye to "see" without seeing. Everyone has access to the 6th and 7th senses, relating to the higher intellectual and higher emotional centers. The world is in a stew, and everyone receives Celestial Seasoning. Each soul has its angelic connections, guides and "Advisors", not to mention the Oversoul, which continually makes nano-adjustments to each incarnated fragment. Presently, millions have incarnated to participate, if even briefly, in the incoming energies when Heaven arrives in a tidal wave to divinize matter. These incoming waves of subtle dense matter literally transform everything at the sub-atomic level. In relation to the physical, these energies are directly Creator sourced. Those who are able to contain more of this invisible substance act as "lightning rods" or distribution points for all to receive, via the real world wide web - of light.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since this cosmic event happens in a proverbial "flash", those who are not prepared to contain light energy may short circuit. Many will depart through physical death, once the system goes into spiritual overload.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the Heart is connected to divinity, like a cosmic egg, it will receive the bulk of the invisible divinized etheric light substance, and will "crack open" like an egg. This is part of the rebirth or being "born again" in spirit, at which point we are no longer subject to the Wheel of Life and Death. This is the first time an entire planet is scheduled to be "lifted" or "Heaveneyezed" together at once. Past civilizations, such as Atlantis, Lemuria, Mu and the Mayans, prepared a select few for the Harvest. When our planet's shift arrives, and none know when, Gaia and all inhabitants will receive the "Holy Substance" which is metaphorically recreated by receiving the wafer and the wine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rather than work through intermediaries, this substance is impartial and non-judgmental. It goes where it can be held and contained. All impurities within are literally blazed away in the "purification by fire". The fire is the moment one receives the fire of God within. It's Light and Love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all going to experiences this both singularly and together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This doesn't mean that we will choose similar paths or end up in the same place. I was sitting at my desk recently, and the thought crossed my mind, "This isn't what I thought awakening would be like…at all", and laughed to myself. In fact, nothing apparent was different, except a subtle shift in my point of view. Carlos Casteneda refers to this shift as altering the assemblage point, or source of focus of the trillions of unseen filaments of light which connect everything together as one. This is how we can instantaneously be here and at the "far side" of the universe at the same time. There is no time. We are one body of light. The only differences are in densities and the awareness of the density in which we reside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we are multidimensional, we are in all densities simultaneously, all the way "back" to Source energy, of which we contain a divine spark. This spark is referred to in esoteric teachings as the cosmic egg. We will have an opportunity to break open this egg when the coming shift in energies creates the cosmic crack. In a way, we'll all be "cracking up" together. After all, you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At that point, the Celestial Seasonings, which have been continuously adjusted just to suit our particular taste, will add the final metaphysical elements, tones and light - to create a totally new omelet. So don't worry, eggheads, everything is fine. The yolk or essence within is safe, and all one need do is not giggle too much when dipped into the boiling water. Well, it tickles… so I've heard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-4903721424287482384?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/4903721424287482384/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=4903721424287482384' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4903721424287482384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/4903721424287482384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/01/school-of-celestial-seasonings.html' title='School of Celestial Seasonings'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R5KBFFzKV1I/AAAAAAAAAO0/zmmq74lPINA/s72-c/omelet.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5018230476221149200</id><published>2008-01-06T17:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-01-06T17:42:31.253-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='NDE'/><title type='text'>My Dog is Addicted...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R4GBDVzKVxI/AAAAAAAAAOU/gWBbn26wjlE/s1600-h/CAT.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152541343079880466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R4GBDVzKVxI/AAAAAAAAAOU/gWBbn26wjlE/s400/CAT.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;…to Coffee Mate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know how it happened, or when; perhaps some of the mystical powder fell onto the floor one day. But now, like clockwork, every time I make my morning coffee, with two tablespoons of brown sugar and six tablespoons of Coffee Mate, she waits patiently for her daily fix. I have to give her a tiny bit of the miraculous powder or she's just not happy. Of course, neither am I if I don't get mine. What it does to the spoon makes my skin crawl; those poor arteries! By now, you might be wondering why in the heck I have a picture of a CAT, when this story appears to be about my DOG!   Read on, sweet reader, read on…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question before me is "What redeeming quality can I inject into this tale, to transform it into an uplifting spiritual message?" After all, I must take responsibility for leading the reader to a place where he or she can move up and into a higher frequency, an uplifting vibration; at the least, something pleasant to ponder - if even for a moment. So, I'll continue by sharing my experience with interviewing Dannion Brinkley last night on my radio show. As many know, Dannion was struck by lightning, electrocuted, and pronounced dead. In fact, he says that he was zipped up in a body bag at the morgue, wondering how on earth he could let someone know that he wasn't really DEAD!? Imagine "coming to" at the morgue. He was dead for almost half an hour, and it took two years and several major surgeries with two more NDEs to recover.  Chilly, possums!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was mesmerized by his story, which I had never heard or read. One thing he seems certain about, which is a common thread to most NDEs, is that there IS NO DEATH! He had two more NDEs during his life, and each time went through a meticulous "life review", another common thread. It's described as follows: one relives every moment of one's life, from birth to death; not only from the perspective of Self, but from the perspective of every other person one affected in any way. The most subtle feelings and desires are all recorded in a kind of holographic multi-dimensional manner, and played back even more "real" than when one actually lived the experiences themselves. One must experience from the other's perspectives, how it felt to be in their shoes "at the effect".   Everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are no judges or juries or scolding Gods in the room, just one's own view from every angle and every feeling and perspective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently, this allows the soul to understand at the deepest levels the overall effect of one's life. Those I've spoken to thus far have been pretty scurrilous characters, and I laughed when Dannion said he had been quite a scallywag! Often, drinking, abuse and drugs are involved, but mostly selfish or self-serving lives with little regard for others. Sounds like most of my own life. Yet, we need not cross over to the other side to make positive changes, or to know the truth and live it fully.  The experiences, regardless of one's beliefs in the afterlife, are so real to the participants that upon returning they all exhibit almost superhuman characteristics towards helping others, starting with sharing their stories.   Mother Theresa, move over!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dannion also spoke of Crystal Cities, with clear living walls, pulsing golden energy sources within each block, and of the Thirteen Beings of Light who each represented an archetype. One by one, the being would transmit what it represented, be it Truth, Wisdom, etc., and a small black box would emerge from within, float towards him with living, breathing scenes - from our future! Apparently, many of these future visions, of which he received one hundred, have come true. He spoke about the approaching times, and that we must be prepared for a multitude of dramatic possibilities, including some kind of major epidemic. Okay, that's not "uplifting", but when there is no such thing as death, what could one possibly fear?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What truly startled me was when he began talking about the Mayan Calendar, and how it had been "validated" as a holographic calendar representing the actual energies we are in right now; the Mayans, he said, are accurate. I had come to this conclusion independently, but it was surprising to hear someone who had been to the "other side" speak about it with certainty. He also validated that we are in the 5th Night, which began November 19th. He tied this in with his visions, and said that around 2010 things start hopping, but they are commencing in this year. He could not see beyond 2014. Nothing. I asked as much as I could about the shift and how it might occur, but we only had one hour to chat, and ended up running over; in fact, the owner had to interrupt and yank us off the air!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I immediately purchased his first two books at Amazon.com. This is a whole new, fascinating area for me. It's amazing that one can spend many years studying this and that, esoteric information and so on, and completely skim over something as enlightening as what actually happens to us when the physical is dropped. He also spoke about spirit beings in the blue-gray world, who hadn't gone towards the light, who were largely unhappy; many dressed in ancient garb, so he could tell they were from some earlier period in our history. Many had been abused and were perhaps not "ready" when their time came, others were downright hostile. Some don't know they are dead. Makes sense to me, as there are certainly stranger things in this world than that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most valuable tool he shared, and one that I aspire to is this: to purify every aspect of my life, down to the thought level, and to view it "as if" I'm doing that life review NOW. I want to know, when that moment arrives, as apparently none escape it, that I've done everything possible to contribute something positive to the world. Call me selfish. I know that is a self-serving thought, but does it really matter? It feels wonderful to contribute in some small way to another's journey, if even a word of encouragement. A smile in the street to a stranger, a random act of kindness, or giving some funds to a homeless person all make me feel better. I get a similar feeling when I go out to feed all the cats each day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, I mumble and grumble like a cranky old man, but when they come running to me, meowing, purring, loving, and I pet them fondly, something truly magical happens, and we are all transformed as one. It's called LOVE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5018230476221149200?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5018230476221149200/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5018230476221149200' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5018230476221149200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5018230476221149200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2008/01/my-dog-is-addicted.html' title='My Dog is Addicted...'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R4GBDVzKVxI/AAAAAAAAAOU/gWBbn26wjlE/s72-c/CAT.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-3366583328464935635</id><published>2007-12-29T14:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-29T14:37:03.760-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Receiving'/><title type='text'>The Great Mandala</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R3bKFVzKVwI/AAAAAAAAAOM/_7b-FDmk2Ao/s1600-h/mandala008_jpg.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149525417044629250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R3bKFVzKVwI/AAAAAAAAAOM/_7b-FDmk2Ao/s400/mandala008_jpg.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We are living expressions of the Mandala.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The microcosm of our lives expresses itself as a macrocosm. The deeper this understanding, the closer we are to living in higher dimensional realities. Geometry reflects perfection; we are that, and more. I used to think that the eye at the top of the pyramid, the "all seeing eye", represented ancient esoteric knowledge, held only by an elite few at the top. Though some at the top in "secret societies" know what I'm about to say, many of us who aren't aware might not know. These eternal truths have been concealed from humanity for obvious reasons: those in control have chosen not to empower humanity, but to enslave it. For that reason, over 60 million souls called "Wanderers", incarnated to remind the rest who are here of their true nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one who isn't "supposed" to read this will, and of those who do it will not be of interest. So, this is designed to reach a select few; those who read it and have ears to hear. There is no one to "save" here, and there are none we need to awaken. The darkness in the world is balanced, and this place is meant as a place where souls can have another opportunity to "get it". The difficulties we see on the planet are created by rebellious souls who continue to descend deeper into a self-created groove on the human record player. Reincarnation. Until now, light workers have been on a mission, with missionary zeal to save the world. If only these few Wanderers would awaken, the 100th monkey effect can kick in and we can all go home. Not quite. The game is not about anyone else. It's about You.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, we must awaken to our Selves with a capital "S". Once our facades have become sufficiently annoying to be dropped, ego is in check, desires are no longer pressing, and there is nothing left to have, be or do, one reaches a solitary point in the Cosmic Mandala. In a sense, it is a multidimensional crossroad where all possibilities intersect. A difficult truth to ponder is that WE are the light of the world, and no "evil", no darkness, no corrupt government or group can possibly affect us or is above us; we tower over the darkness. It is we who are powerful above the rest. This is one of the esoteric secrets concealed from us. We all strive towards humility; but this about moving beyond the appearance of being humble. It is the recognition of Truths, which by their nature, shift with our perspective, with our consciousness. It's time to drop false humility, one of the "final frontiers".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is quite possible that for one person to reach a higher state of awareness, of light, of consciousness, many millions of souls must pave the way. From the perspective of spiritual development, we are literally climbing on the backs of humanity which supports the few who have chosen and are gifted to awaken permanently. There is nothing to feel remorse or guilt about, as that is not the heart feeling, but the mind's programming. From a higher perspective, we already were and are awake. We are not bound by time or space, or the need to reincarnate or pay dues. It's done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The angst, turmoil and chaos is what, in part, we came to observe and shift by our very vibration, affect invisibly. It is not what we say; but our intent, our awareness and the ability to align with the highest good of all, which creates change. This path requires 1,000 percent integrity to self and others. They are one. We are One. Literally everything we think, feel and do affects the entire galaxy. It is all recorded and known. To change the world we must be the living lights we already are. By releasing denial there is clear vision.   To gain further insight requires clearing mind and heart. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This should come as "Good News" to those of us from all walks of life who have done this activation, that transformational seminar, the healing classes and the paranormal studies, not to mention all the spiritual and religious doctrines meticulously studied, incorporated and released. But now, we face another hurdle: our own difficulty with accepting our Power. True Power. Part of what keeps us from getting it, owning it and projecting it, is the belief that we shouldn't be so blessed or are not worthwhile. We need to release all limiting beliefs, for surely we are the Ones we've been waiting for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We cannot upset the Divine balance, the cosmic geometry of soul's chosen paths recycling repeatedly. Compassion and heart are necessary, but we are above those at the top of the pyramid, and can shift our perspective accordingly. We are of the Light, and many of us have incarnated from distant star systems and other dimensions, most notably the 6th and 7th positive polarities. From there, and higher, WE perceive as the All Seeing Eye.   We are the transformers, connected to our Sources within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Starseed, which we all are, must begin to learn to live with truths that at first blush seem paradoxical and uncomfortable. Indigos have no problem telling others "who" they are! Others must learn to speak the "secret language" while walking amongst the crowds in Harry Potter's invisibility cloak. It isn't important if anyone "gets us", understands, or likes us. We are not here for those reasons. Finding a soul mate, perfect relationship or twin is not our job. That is part of a lower dimensional paradigm that is crumbling underneath the feet of the "Unawakened". Many will not be able to shake the sleep off their brows, and have squandered countless opportunities on the Wheel of Life to make positive changes for their highest good. Most will not comprehend what's happening, and it will seem all too terribly "real".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, this little "pep talk" is designed for those who know more or less who they are to some degree, any degree. We don't need to know the precise location of our own star system, or who we were in previous (simultaneous) lives, because we chose to be here to hold our own vibration. We are channels with light filaments which connect "Heaven", higher densities, and the many "nows" that holographically imprint here, and on many tiny globes across the galaxies. We can begin to own our own power, knowing that the corrupt, heartless and soulless systems in which we find ourselves are not ours to change. We are above those manifestations, and not "of them". We, you and I, have souls that resonate to truth, beauty, love, song, dance, art, nature, to life… we do not destroy, or come to create strife and division, unless that furthers the Plan, but we come to emanate our soul's purpose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our soul purpose is to be our Selves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let that sink in for a brief moment. You mean ME? With all my imperfections, the lousy job, terrible relationships, drug and alcohol problems on and off, my sexual preferences; you surely can't mean all of that? Yes, that's precisely what I'm talking about. All our perceived "weaknesses" are created pre-incarnationally through our own design. Once we understand that at the deepest levels, all judgment, all blame, all remorse, simply vanish into thin air. None of the baggage "holds up" in light of the truth. We are left with one choice only: to let it all go, to stop resisting, and to open up to RECEIVE. We are the chalice, the chalice that Christ spoke of being an esoteric metaphor for the human soul. It is our own vessel in which liquid light can be poured, through a combination of effort, choice and Divine Gift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our "job" is to transform and transcend our weaknesses by first seeing them clearly. The faster we can confront ourselves lovingly the more rapid the accelerated path. It isn't necessary to know with certainty what's around the bend, or if there's anything "more" to our story. We will be shown, it will be revealed, when we do the inner work of purification. This is alchemy at its finest; transmuting lead into gold. Paradoxically, there is nothing to "get", be or do!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our minds want to make everything work out just so. Everything must be right, saved, not fighting, not dying from starvation, not this or that. This is resistance to what is, to what's so. It causes great losses in our own energy to awaken. We begin to form ideas about why things are the way they are. All of this is mental gymnastics going nowhere, and not very fast, robs vital life force.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are far faster than the old time speed of light. Physics hasn't a clue that light is perhaps the slowest moving of all forces. We are instantaneously everywhere every when; Non local entities of a positive polarity higher density, who incarnated here to just "be". Be what? Be our Selves. There really isn't much more to it than that. But we must begin to view ourselves as whole and complete, not fragmented and distorted, and as cosmic Lighthouses who are, in fact, dimensionally "above" the highest of the high on this planet we call earth. Nothing is as it seems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the Great Mandala, we are the perfection of the Wheel of Life in all its manifestations. There are no battles to fight. There is only allowance. Be in the world, but not of it… and never, never lose heart. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many Blessings,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-3366583328464935635?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/3366583328464935635/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=3366583328464935635' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3366583328464935635'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3366583328464935635'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/great-mandala.html' title='The Great Mandala'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R3bKFVzKVwI/AAAAAAAAAOM/_7b-FDmk2Ao/s72-c/mandala008_jpg.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-7642129144833339187</id><published>2007-12-15T13:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-15T13:30:47.028-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Many I&apos;s'/><title type='text'>The Sorceress of Sleep</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RHB1zKVvI/AAAAAAAAAOE/eOxi3lnBKJI/s1600-h/sorceress.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5144314771311056626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RHB1zKVvI/AAAAAAAAAOE/eOxi3lnBKJI/s400/sorceress.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Painting title: CIRCE (The Sorceress) by John William Waterhouse (1911)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been "seduced" about many things, by a powerful Sorceress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For one, there is no "I". We do not have a permanent "I". Even if we did, we would still be connected to our other selves, higher realms, and ultimately Source. The "I" we think of as ourselves is a product of training, self-hypnosis and distorted thinking. At birth, we're given one name and we refer to ourselves as "I", thus we begin life with the distorted belief that we are "one". Gurdjieff got it right when he said we are not "united within". If we were, we would "remember ourselves" and know who we were. We are like sleeping children who lack consciousness and believe they have it already. The "common man", who has little or no interest in spiritual pursuits or in "knowing himself" goes through life imagining himself to be something he's not: awake. When we think we know something, including ourselves, it stops further growth; imagination and desire step in and "fill in the blanks". Why keep an open mind when you already know? What rules supreme is ego.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ego constantly strives for top position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Internally, those who don't know who they are, imagine themselves to be "higher than" everyone else - with few exceptions. As a result, certain people gravitate together. One will usually see a leader of the pack and a coterie of followers. The most obvious example of this would be the school bully and his gang. All gangs operate in this manner, and are examples of why service to self must operate through control and violence. Strong egos, often the result of horrendous insecurities, surround themselves with "inferior" people that admire and cow tow to the head honcho. When the pack is removed from the "leader", the same arrogant superiority reigns. No matter who that person is with, the inner attitude will always be: I am better than this other person. Additionally, if there is evidence to the contrary, the ego-driven personality finds and creates imaginary weaknesses about others, to satisfy itself of superiority. This is all smoke and mirrors to keep from seeing one's own faults. Bluff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is also part of an old paradigm. In politics, one can see this clearly. Many enormous egos, with a lifetime of stroking, manipulating and being catered to, have created a pack of wolves dressed in sheep's clothing. Yet do not be fooled: these are ravenous lions with smiles, each tearing the other apart as needed. This old paradigm is crumbling. It will rapidly dissolve into chaotic forms before harmony emerges and the NEW paradigm begins to reveal itself. The new paradigm is, and has been, patiently grooming itself without egotistical needs, from a spiritual vantage point for decades. Do not be surprised when the transformation of our dear planet seems swift and instantaneous. Angels, higher density positive beings, starseed and walk-ins have entered physical bodies to assist during the "shift", and there are cosmic events lining up which cannot be stopped. The question is, "Where do I resonate in the new energies?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The answer contains other questions: Where would you like to be? What feels right? Are you centered in heart-based and compassionate living, or is the acquisition of wealth important? There is no need for "DNA activations", special statements to be read for 23 days, or workshops and classes, unless one feels called to do these things. They are all triggers to unlock your own processes. All resides within. For every question we have, there is an answer waiting to be revealed. It's not in any books, classes, or this blog. It might be triggered by what appears to be "outside oneself", such as a friend, teacher or guru, but it is still coming from You. The more we move into alignment with our own truth and speak it without lying, keep integrity, and purify and cleanse the "inner landscape", the faster the barnacles fall off and we can set sail for brighter shores. Those who cling to ego-based lives will find everything falling apart; literally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The energy shifts are coming faster and more powerful with each passing day, as the Mayans knew. According to their numerous calendars, all intertwined and working like integrated cosmic gears, we are now in the 5th night as of November 19th. This lasts 360 days, and is the "darkest" and most disturbing time of a grand cosmic cycle. This is when the shit hits the fan. Those of us who are informed and doing our inner work a nanosecond prior, are learning how to step out of the way of flying objects! Those who choose to remain unenlightened might find themselves covered from head to toe. But we don't really care about that, as we want everyone to "win". We do what we can to empower one another, knowing in our hearts we are all one energy, and that when we help another, we are replacing the old "Matrix" of negative energies with a new grid of Light and Love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Light cannot destroy darkness, but where can darkness live in a brightly lit room? There is no place for it. Ego, self-interest and negative manifestations based on lack of love and disconnection from Source are forced to leave the room through the nearest exit; it becomes too uncomfortable to remain, exposed, naked and empty. Darkness does its deeds in the dark for a reason; that's the only place it has power. Once light prevails, it doesn't really "die", but must find a new place, another dark area, in which to manifest. Since it is a lower vibration, it simply retreats to where it feels most comfortable. What's left is a roomful of light beings, a literal Family of Light, in celebration. We have much to celebrate and be thankful for in this cosmic "sorting out" process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During these times, as it appears the world is literally unraveling and coming unglued at every level, we are fine. We have chosen wisely. The secret now is to hold on to your own light, your "note", and if necessary retreat from life to keep from lowering your vibration. Not many can participate IN life, a mélange of lower vibrations, and not be pulled down at times. So for those who must remain in large cities, working for corporations, or holding down two jobs, it becomes even more vital to connect to Source within. If there is difficulty, that's okay. Begin by acknowledging that there is a higher Source/Power within you. It may also be helpful to ask for assistance, even if there is no concept about what that force is, of "positive polarity entities from the 7th dimension or higher". No one has seen the "Face of God" and lived to talk about it. In third density, our atoms unravel if that energy presents itself. It can present through others, who step down the energies through the lower dimensions, from about the 7th or 8th density down to ours, the 3rd. When people say they are channeling a 12th dimensional being, they cannot really be doing this. The energy is too high for a physical body to channel. They are channeling through a lower density entity who is stepping down the power. Also remember that every channel distorts the message, if even subtly. One way to know for certain is to notice any judgment or exclusion in a channel's writings. If there is, that is coming from human weaknesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In reading volumes of channeled material, I can tell when the message is coming through fairly clearly or not. Most are not. Effluvient greetings and meaningless talk, combined with name dropping is just someone's "creative writing" and ego manifesting. Anyone can say, "Dear One", or Dear Hearts. That is not how angelic realms address us, in a condescending manner. That is a human's interpretation of what a higher density, positive polarity entity might say. It's a projection. Higher beings should be able to bring through, if the channel is pure, higher information. It will be intelligent, speak to our higher selves, and we will know intuitively and instantly if it resonates. Solid information should include what we do not already know. Some channels provide pages of platitudes and small talk or "drivel", mirroring what's happening today like a reporter. For example, "You are all going through difficult times right now." This is how fake psychics work; they know that certain things are probably true for everyone. Today, most channeled material is not much better than watching game shows!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exceptions stand out in high profile. By reading a lot of channeled material, we get a sense of the underlying essence of the message which all authentic channels attempt to convey, and it will be love centered and empowering. As we live with relative "free will", we cannot know future events. Besides, the future is being created by us continually. One would need to look at all "probable futures". The "shift" will resonate uniquely to us, and we will ascend as high as our vibration permits. That puts the onus of responsibility back on our own shoulders. There is no "objective shift" or "one size fits all". Timing is everything. We are on the cutting edge for a reason. All of us are "way showers". Regardless of what we're doing in life, we hold a note, and higher energies (Light) are channeled through us. Rest assured we will know our ultimate purpose and our Selves, when we are restored to full consciousness. Until then, have trust and faith in yourself, and know you are guided by unseen hands. But beware of the seductress, the "Sorceress" who might slip you something to make you sleep… sleep...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poppies will make them sleep...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-7642129144833339187?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/7642129144833339187/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=7642129144833339187' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7642129144833339187'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7642129144833339187'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/sorceress-of-sleep.html' title='The Sorceress of Sleep'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RHB1zKVvI/AAAAAAAAAOE/eOxi3lnBKJI/s72-c/sorceress.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5921842664188549608</id><published>2007-12-15T12:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-15T13:01:55.275-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term=':Law of Octaves'/><title type='text'>Labyrinth of the Mind</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RAIVzKVuI/AAAAAAAAAN8/veVN36DOEHI/s1600-h/Labyrinthe.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5144307186398811874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RAIVzKVuI/AAAAAAAAAN8/veVN36DOEHI/s400/Labyrinthe.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's bad for humanity often masquerades as something good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life is a Labyrinth. George Gurdjieff, the Greek-Armenian Master, spoke at length about the law of octaves. According to hidden or esoteric knowledge, everything operates under different laws than man-made laws; cosmic laws. One law, the law of octaves, states that every activity that is begun, and we have to consider the "zero point", or where thoughts originate, goes through an octave of notes before it completes. According to this system of study, the Fourth Way, there are two points where an "octave" might deviate; the Mi-Fa interval, and the Si-Do interval. During those two points, one's energy requires more effort to bridge this energetic gap, in order to continue in a "straight line" towards the objective. If the energy and intent are not present, the octave deviates from its original course, just slightly. The endeavor is now proceeding in a slightly new direction, so close to the original as to be almost imperceptible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the Si-Do interval, again one must know the interval is there, and remain conscious while traversing to the final note, to remain on course. This requires a conscious effort. What usually happens, however, is that we reach a point when the difficulty increases to the extent we often abandon what we started out doing. This is why many projects remain undone. Even if we make it through the first hurdle with our enthusiasm, the second one is more difficult and most projects end up shelved or put off until "another day". That explains why I have such a messy house! If one establishes an emotional "payoff" for incompletions, and takes negative attention as a form of attention, the neurons line up to create patterns of failure. There are many other explanations for having difficulty with completing tasks, but this is one aspect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally, if one deviates at both points in an octave, the new octave might appear identical to the old one, but it is now going in another direction. Imagine starting out drawing a straight line, then continuing in a slightly altered direction twice, and the distance between the two is exponentially greater. Even more disturbing is the fact that in the life of an "enterprise", for example a spiritual movement, the leader, if not awake, will continue to lead everyone astray. The next octave deviates again, and eventually one ends up going in circles. What starts out with great love and high intent deviates to become something dictatorial and exclusive. Movements to create "freedom" deviate to become their own opposites; fascism and dictatorship. If those who are guiding the ship are not aware, and we live in a sea of unawareness, the boat ends up becoming its own opposite, going in circles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Power to the People becomes the next "corrupt dictatorship". It's inevitable. Why don't corrupt dictatorships become loving democracies? The power of the intent of those who rule is absolute. If the original intent remains constant, and the intervals are bridged by intent, things remain the same but degrade over time. Usually, those who have "made it" to the top maintain have an even firmer grasp of their power, once obtained. In that case, there is a dictatorship that continually gets worse, not better. Eventually, it will crumble from within. However, for those who live under control, one might as well be in prison. Bo Lozoff wrote a book called "We're All Doing Time", a wonderfully insightful spiritual journey which points out that true freedom does not emanate from our circumstances, and that even if one is in jail, the spirit and consciousness can be free. In that sense, those who are not awake are living in self-created prisons which are merely gilded cages; hence, we're all doing time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is there a way out?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In. That's the way out; in. No, I'm not getting "zenny or zany" on you! But the only way we can truly "escape" the entire wheel of fortune, and remain outside the choppy waves of chance, is to become more conscious. Since it's difficult to just "create consciousness" out of thin air, an easy way to approach this is by noticing what is UNconscious behavior. Begin by observing yourself. Note recurring patterns. Usually, at the heart, will be a beginning moment in time when a decision was made unconsciously, and that decision has simply continued on its own. Even though circumstances change, and we know we're different people, past decisions often create recurring problems that we can't understand. It isn't necessary to travel back all the way to the point of the actual decision, or to rush out to a psychiatrist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, most psychiatrists are like unskilled surgeons, who are performing brain surgery with Skil saws! Once they get IN, they're fascinated with the labyrinth of the mind, egotistically confident they can "handle anything", then when they realize they're in deeper than they thought with no solution, they put a "band aid" on what they stirred up, charge their $295.00 for 45 minutes, and have the poor sucker make an appointment for next week. Weeks turn into years, and you know the rest of that story! Additionally, many who go into this field are deeply disturbed by their own demons, and are wrestling with figuring out their dysfunctional patterns. On the outside, there might be Armani suits and plush offices, but it's what's inside that counts. And if the Tin Man doesn't have a heart, it's a long way to OZ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Manifestation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of cosmic laws, known and unknown to us, we repeat events over and over, and our dreams and intentions often go awry, and we then wonder "why?" Esoteric information is not handed out by the plateful. Those who stumble across a short cut or two, such as some of the techniques explained in The Secret, have learned how to continue with their intent through the deviations which naturally occur. If one desires great wealth, this desire must become stronger and more focused over time; greed increases exponentially since it can never satisfy. What most folks want is a short cut, instant gratification, and a magic wand to solve all life's "problems", and many seem to believe that "with just a little more money", this can occur. Is there anything wrong with this picture? Think for yourself. I'll save that one for another day, another blog, and we can all explore this together. In the meantime, enjoy walking The Maze, but don't get trapped in your mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5921842664188549608?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5921842664188549608/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5921842664188549608' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5921842664188549608'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5921842664188549608'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/labyrinth-of-mind.html' title='Labyrinth of the Mind'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R2RAIVzKVuI/AAAAAAAAAN8/veVN36DOEHI/s72-c/Labyrinthe.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-607476882694853526</id><published>2007-12-11T15:07:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-11T15:27:59.396-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='STA'/><title type='text'>Being of Service:  STS, STO and STA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R18cT1i1KZI/AAAAAAAAAN0/H4Bkiz6_6lM/s1600-h/Angelwings.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142860426596657554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R18cT1i1KZI/AAAAAAAAAN0/H4Bkiz6_6lM/s400/Angelwings.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I've been bothered by a concept for some time now, and it finally "hit me" why. It's struck me as limiting to contemplate Service to Self and Service to Others. I understand both completely, as do most, but something is missing. In an "aha" moment, it came to me: These terms reflect DUALITY and POLARITY. We are moving up and out of both, which are really the same element, into triality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What bothers me is that there is no such thing as either, since they are semi-interchangeable, and STO does not include oneself. This seems like a distortion. So today, I'm creating a 3rd category: STA, or Service to All. STA is "all inclusive" and covers the Creator, the Light and the Dark; not to mention all the colors of the rainbow. It covers outer and inner expressions. From now on, I'm going to use these three terms when talking about service: STS, STO and STA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who says we have to stay within the box?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avatars provide only so much; we must take the torch the rest of the way, while empowering others by handing it off. Really great coaches know this. I've been stuffing my consciousness into a tiny cramped space that just didn't feel right. Once I got what the problem was, the solution presented itself. Synchronicity, or aligning with the "field" of energy, exists for everyone to tap inspiration, genius, and creativity. There, beauty, truth and love reside; the most poignant being love. But let's not give beauty and truth a bad rap. Without them, it'd be a much scarier world indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It isn't necessary for us to be great artists, writers or musicians, for we are creating the landscape of our soul. That is our playground of self-expression, and that's where we have total freedom to be, express, and create; each day a blank canvas. When folks say "you create your reality", it's a partial truth; the reality that comes out is only as good as the one which is being crafted within. This requires purification of the soul; refining coarse into finer - alchemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thinking inside the box becomes easier to recognize for its divisive and limiting nature. For instance, black and white, good and bad, light and dark, right and wrong. There is always a third alternative, not covered by dualistic thought. Once one brings in that third idea, others seem to naturally pop out of the aether, and it's easy to wonder why others don't "get it". It becomes laughable to watch people argue about something that is only seen from two points of view and none other. We know that ego is the part of us that "has to be right" and have the last word, so no matter how lofty or heated a discussion, it's ultimately about who is superior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ego is about proving one is right (superior) to others and, like a turtle trying to right itself, must always win. Those involved with spirituality and metaphysics learn quickly that ego cannot be eliminated, but it can be loved and taught to work differently. This requires opening the heart, while releasing our attachments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heart centered actions empower others and oneself, producing a "win-win" for all. By opening the heart, developing compassion and forgiveness, which results from clearing away our own debris, past stuff and karmic matter, it becomes progressively easy to let go of any situation. Rather than being sucked into arguments about nothing, trying to convince others of our views, we know that those who resonate with our own vibration are naturally gravitating towards us, we to them, and synchronicity brings us together. No longer is it necessary to convince Mom, Dad, brothers, sisters, lovers and friends that WE know about things that they don't, and we're right. If only they would awaken to our truths or just try to understand us!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, it's painful and difficult to be criticized and shut down by those we love, so the solution is to "let them be". Walk away, knowing they are at a different place, and there is no need to force bridging the gaps. Everyone is in the right place, and arguments walk out the door, having no place to live. Poof! All win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is truly being in Service to All. Allowing Everyone to win. No longer IAM but WEARE, and in that Unity we are united as One.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-607476882694853526?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/607476882694853526/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=607476882694853526' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/607476882694853526'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/607476882694853526'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/being-of-service-sts-sto-and-sta.html' title='Being of Service:  STS, STO and STA'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R18cT1i1KZI/AAAAAAAAAN0/H4Bkiz6_6lM/s72-c/Angelwings.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-2573883290610088534</id><published>2007-12-10T11:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-10T13:11:27.521-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Synchronicity'/><title type='text'>MultiDimensional Eyes</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R12bL1i1KYI/AAAAAAAAANs/A4odM_zTXe0/s1600-h/DustInGodsEyeNebula.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142436977181010306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R12bL1i1KYI/AAAAAAAAANs/A4odM_zTXe0/s400/DustInGodsEyeNebula.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Helix Nebula: "Dust in God's Eye" &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're seldom aware of the numerous worlds we affect, above and below us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Intuitively, we "know" that we're multidimensional in nature, spanning time and space, living in an eternal "now" in many dimensions and forms with nonlocal consciousness. But knowing, feeling and experiencing this reality is largely masked or veiled, for our own protection and growth. Until recently, it was important to believe the illusion. That is part of an old paradigm which is breaking down into chaotic forms. To access the other worlds we're already in, an effort to penetrate them is required. One could make an analogy to sex: to have it, there must be an attempt at penetration! Creative Imagination can play a helpful role in the "Awakening Process", which all of humanity is participating in, regardless of appearance. Even the cheering, beer guzzling slob watching baseball is "in this process" now. There are more layers of resistance, denial and fear, perhaps, but they will be removed. Resistance is futile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are all awakening now; there is no other time, only the present.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To develop the ability to think on many levels, there are simple, practical and fun methods. For example, anyone can perceive the "lower worlds" of form, by the power with which we see the effects. Insects, spiders, grass and flowers are affected by our appreciation - or lack; when we inadvertently or intentionally step on a bug, or stop to appreciate a flower. I've gone back and forth on the "spider issue", occasionally sucking them ALL up in my vacuum cleaner, justifying that I'm not really killing the last spiders on the planet. Still, conscience pricks. As I develop an ability to grasp that all life, whether classified as sentient or not, is in fact a living and breathing aspect of All That Is, a conscious field of shared energy, then "I" become no more or less important than everything in my perceptual field. It becomes increasingly distorted to perceive otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently, I've taken a liking to "saving" my little spider friends, playing a game of talking to them "like adults", and treating them with respect. Sometimes, I pick them up carefully by hand. Others, who are scared to death and don't get my benevolent intentions, are scooped up by glass and delivered outdoors. Going deeper and smaller, we're seldom aware of the microscopic cellular and bacterial realms, which have their own forms of consciousness and intelligence. Our cells are brilliant beyond our capacity to imagine, and healing occurs when we communicate with them directly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going in the other direction, to the stars, galaxies and black holes, it's said that we are, in fact, "the stars", and they are inside us. As above, so below. One way of expanding consciousness is by perceiving and thinking about the micro and the macro being extensions of our nonlocal Selves. By imagining ourselves in all worlds simultaneously, our awareness and focus expands to become nonlocal and multi dimensional. This is the nature of higher densities; imagination and perception are ways to practice being there, if not maps to arrive at where we are already.  Seemingly paradoxical.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Synchronicity: the Guru within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything in our lives is a Guru, a living Teacher. For example, my wonderful but energetic Jack Russell Terrier begins to lick her paws during "energetic shifts". She takes it beyond raw, creating gaping wounds which need to heal. From past experience, I know that leaving her to her own devices, she would end up with bloody stumps. Out of deep love and concern, I'm forced to "step in" and intervene to "save her". I've experienced many situations where invisible forces have intervened on my behalf, to "save me" from myself. Anyone with a scrap of love and compassion knows the depth of this experience first hand. If we, mere "mortals", can have such compassion in a dimension of duality, polarity and strife, is it so difficult to grasp that we are protected from "on high"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By viewing the miniscule events in our lives as potential teaching tools, we are piercing the veil with consciousness.   Higher realities continually work in our lives, "behind the scenes". Like the Wizard of Oz, there are many players we cannot perceive with our senses, that become perceptible through intuitive higher senses. The 6th and 7th senses, or "Higher Intellectual" and Higher Emotional" senses are real; more real than the illusory reality of mutual agreement. Lest I imbue the daily events of our lives with "too much significance", mind activity, or thinking about what this or that means, sometimes events are what they look like; things are precisely what they appear to be! Recognizing synchronicity is easy. The nanosecond synchronicity strikes, remember it's a guiding light along the way, and more will follow.  You put it there, and only you can unlock the intimate and personal nature of the messages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine being in a jet airplane at night, trying to find the runway. You're the pilot, and the goal is to see the actual landing lights, guiding intuitively when the instrument panel isn't working. The instrument panel is like our senses, and the landing lights represent intuition. The more times synchronicity strikes, the closer to being in the "now", where everything is synchronous. Numbers sometimes tell us we're close. We all have instances of glancing at the clock and seeing 11:11, or three of the same numbers in a row, like at Las Vegas -  jackpot! According to angeloligists and numerologists, 3 of the same numbers in a row, such as 222, 333, etc., are different messages from the univers/angelic realms. I tried to "memorize" what they meant, and gave up, preferring to use them like alarm clocks; reminders to awaken; messages from invisible realms.  There are also "personal numbers" that only have significance to us.   Whether we know it, are aware of it or not, each soul is guided by its own guardian angels, and many work overtime!   Ask for help and it's there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, those moments fade quickly, and "ordinary consciousness" resumes. Still, we are all headed towards transitioning into fully conscious beings, and every time we "awaken" for a moment, no matter how brief, is precious. By stringing a pearl onto a priceless necklace and tying a knot between, should the strand break, only one pearl is dropped; we don't lose the entire strand. Each conscious moment is a pearl, a lifetime. In turn, a strand represents many lives. Meher Baba used this analogy in one of his stories:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Pearl Diver&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"When I became a lover I thought I had gained the Pearl of the Goal; foolish I did not know that this Pearl lies on the floor of an ocean which has innumerable waves to be encountered and great depths to be sounded. &lt;strong&gt;HAFIZ&lt;/strong&gt; (Sufi poet/Master)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the beginning the seeker of Truth is like a man who, having heard that a priceless pearl is to be got from the depths of the ocean, goes down to the seashore and first admires the vastness of the ocean and then addles and splashes about in the shallows and, intoxicated with this new excitement, forgets about the pearl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of many who do this, one after a while, remembers his quest and learns to swim and starts to swim out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of the many who do this, one masters swimming and reaches the open sea; the others perish in the waves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of the many who master swimming, one begins to dive; the others in their enjoyment of mastery, again forget about the pearl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of many who practice diving, one reaches the ocean bed and grasps the pearl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of many who get hold of the pearl, one swims back up to the surface with it, the others stay stuck on the floor gazing with wonder at the pearl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of many who swim up to the surface, one returns to the shore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This one is the Perfect Master (Qutub) and He shows His pearl to the others - the divers, the swimmers, the paddlers, and so encourages them in their efforts. But He can if He wishes cause another to become the possessor of the pearl without that one having to learn swimming and diving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But God-Man or Avatar is the Master of Masters (Qutub-al-Aktab), and can give possession of the Pearl to any number he likes. The Qutub is perfect Perfection, but is circumscribed by His office in regard to His help to men. The Avatar is beyond limits of function.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His power and the effects of His power are boundless. The absolute Perfection of the Perfect Master is the same as God-Man's. The difference between them is in the scope of their functioning. One is limited, the other is unlimited.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meher Baba, "The Everything and The Nothing"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What does it mean to be a "conscious being"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avatars, Teachers or Gurus say, "everything changes yet everything remains the same." It's a paradox, to be sure. I used to pursue higher consciousness as if I could buy it in a cereal box, or get it at some seminar or esoteric school. Of course, a school is only as conscious as its Teacher or Guru, hardly comparable to shopping for Cheerios. Today, we are blessed by vibrations from higher "schools", most notably ancient mystery schools of the Pleiades and other galaxies, assisting us in our labor pangs. Learn to trust and recognize the inner voices, as this is where we communicate with "the gods". Often, the One is speaking through many channels we're connected with, all the way "back" to Source. The "voice" might not form words, and is accompanied by a different energy instantly recognizable when paying attention. We are what we focus on, so to accelerate the process devote as much time as possible to your own awakening process; learning to give from the heart also propels us forward. Both yield unexpected dividends.  There are no accidents.  When in doubt, follow the directions: your own!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learning Discernment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's important to develop the capacity for discernment, and it is not true that "one size fits all". Each soul is uniquely attuned to its own resonance, which can be tapped only by the inhabitant. What works for one person most likely won't work the same way for someone else. There's no need to push and shove to get the best bargain during Macy's basement sale; there's plenty for everyone. Let the pushy ones get theirs first, then leisurely take the elevator UP, to discover your very own floor; the 5th. We go at our own pace; just as we can step on the gas and speed, the journey can be slowed. Sometimes, it's best to simply "coast", being out of gas. Other times, high octane, rubber burning, pedal to the metal speed fests are the right energy. Down time can be extremely important, and forces us to work on guilt at "doing nothing" in a highly competitive, type "A" puritan-based society, which values high yield for little returns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we're in alignment with our most authentic Selves or "essence", synchronicity kicks in and there's no denying that every step of the way is guided by unseen hands. From birth to death we are cradled in the ambient love of the MultiVerse, so vast and awesome as to take one's breath away. Perhaps that's why we must "lose ourselves" in a plethora of distractions, to keep from being bowled over at the immensity of our own Power. This is one reason we go through such a lengthy, involved and seemingly "slow" process. Enjoy the ride along the Way...the journey is the destination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing in our lives is "wasted" or useless. Every moment builds upon the last, interdimensionally, not in the sequence we imagine. Time goes backwards, forwards and sideways, besides not existing at all! It's just as likely that we've sculpted this lifetime like a fine work of art or music: we created the desired ending, preferably happy, and worked the major plot elements in advance.   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is one way synchronicity works: we are reminding ourselves, outside of time and space with cool event markers, which only we can see or recognize. Most have heard the story that Michelangelo sculpted his marble statue, David, after seeing it finished in his head; he simply "chipped away everything that was NOT David." Taking this metaphor as a symbol for our lives, we are already the perfected sculpture within the solid block of marble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How we "chip away" to find our Selves is subjective, personal and timed. Like a great comedian, we can learn to recognize good timing, as it's all about timing. We know when our "delivery" goes flat; or worse, stirs a riot in the neighborhood. Compare this to moments of synchronicity, when it seems that everything just flows perfectly, as if following a Master Plan, and we simply came along for the ride, like a leaf floating down a river. When the mind subjects us to its never-ending thoughts and questions, remember to reassure it by saying, "All in good time, my friend… all in good time."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-2573883290610088534?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/2573883290610088534/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=2573883290610088534' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2573883290610088534'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/2573883290610088534'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/multidimensional-eyes.html' title='MultiDimensional Eyes'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R12bL1i1KYI/AAAAAAAAANs/A4odM_zTXe0/s72-c/DustInGodsEyeNebula.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-1691812097160644166</id><published>2007-12-08T12:24:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-08T12:59:26.594-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='theatre'/><title type='text'>Pulling Back the Projections</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R1r-rFi1KXI/AAAAAAAAANk/ynKkVoIXe-8/s1600-h/RollerCoaster.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5141701940772940146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R1r-rFi1KXI/AAAAAAAAANk/ynKkVoIXe-8/s400/RollerCoaster.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;…allow me to remind each and every one of you that everything in the physical world is a projection of your consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;BASHAR&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything experienced by the five senses is a projection emanating from within. Life is like a movie we pay to see, then become so absorbed with that we literally forget ourselves and become the movie. The difference between a movie and our lives is that we've become stuck in the film, and have forgotten that we're creating the movie ourselves. In other words, the illusion of life is now being lived as our real lives, and we've "forgotten ourselves" in the process. It's like going into the movie theater and never leaving. So, what's the problem with that, I hear someone asking? I don't know about you, but there are very few movies I can watch more than 2 or 3 times before I begin anticipating the "good parts". To be forced to see the same film for years would rapidly become tortuous. This is the nature of "re" incarnations, repeating past mistakes, and life becoming monotonous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we're in the theatre, there's a Universe outside that is not accessible; we're not living life fully, being stuck in the illusion or projection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over time, many people have worked in the projection room; changing the reels, cutting and splicing things to make it more interesting, perhaps weaving in some subliminal "commercials" to get us to buy stuff from the snack bar. Madison Avenue has become so adept at this game, that there are consultants who are paid hundreds of millions of dollars to come up with a concept that moves people to identify with a brand name. There's a whole arena of study called "esoteric symbolism" which utilizes deep subconscious symbols to affect us. In our imaginary theatre, however, let us imagine that over time a very smart kid has worked there. He's a genius, working part time to supplement his income on the "outside". He realized that the good people in the theatre don't know there's an outside any longer, and figured out ways to manipulate us into staying in the theatre, while milking us for every last nickel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because he doesn't want to be stuck in the projection room of this theatre himself, he throws out a few ideas with some other clever folks in a "think tank", and they agree that this is a very lucrative gig indeed. So, they spend some time brainstorming, and they come up with an idea that's perfect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They create an hierarchy of folks to work in the projection room, freeing themselves up to build other theatres where more people can be "trapped" indefinitely. When the last dime is milked, they stage a fake fire, and herd all the poor folk OUT a door into a room called "hollow cost" or "war room" where they are burned to death, or tortured and atomized. Then, they freshen up the theatre, spray some floral spray, and start letting in the next excited group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, they learn to create a need for the next group to go see the film inside, which is marketed so skillfully, that everyone "must see it". If you don't go see this film, you're not really living! It's billed as nonstop excitement, thrill a minute, and so on. It's SO exciting that it makes James Bond seem like an afternoon in Sunday School. Sometimes, when the line to get in is particularly long, they divert people into sub theatres, which appeal to lower appetites; such as, "nonstop sexathon", or "romantic hit of the century". They have a theatre for every desire, and to this day remain free as birds outside the theatres, watching our folly with bemusement and contempt. There are checks and balances to ensure the folks in the projection rooms do not know what's really going on, and only the original group of "thinkers" holds this esoteric secret in their hands. In fact, they even create a theatre about that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are so clever they create a theatre of theatres, for those who are longing for something MORE than a projection on the screen. This theatre is called, "Eternal Life Within". Some of these theatres have live people in the front, who talk about religious ideas, and work the audience up into a lather or who do fake healings. Then, they collect money. Even the people at the front don't really know who their boss is, and some actually believe what they are saying, they've become so accustomed to saying it. Over time, the original group saw there were some who wouldn't even think about going into any of "those places", so they created a "theatre of the absurd" for rebellious ones. It did particularly well in places like France and England, as well as in sophisticated cities like New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There, rebels are led to believe they are "saving the world" by joining this cause or that notion, "fighting injustice", spreading the word so others can awaken. In case these folk have thoughts of leaving, there are subliminal implants on the holographic doors which create FEAR and PANIC.  When someone thinks they want to get out of the show, a glance at one of the doors scares the Bejeezuz out of them! This clever game has been working for decades. However, the game's afoot, Watson! A few rebels, who have been in all the theatres, figured out a way to leave the first show, then made a game of leaving each successive trap. It became so much fun that they decided to play with it. They could see the smart ones in the "think tanks" and beyond, knew where the control was coming from, but came up with another idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was called the "What If Game". They created a "secret club" of their own, completely concealed from the "controllers", which would infiltrate all the various theatres in the great land, and plant seeds. That's all they did. They planted a seed here, there, everywhere. The seed was a counter to doubt; it was called "remembering". Since the good people inside had forgotten themselves and were now riddled with insecurities, doubts and fears, they simply planted a seed of a time when things were different; when there were no theatres at all, and reminded the audience they were in fact also the writers and producers, not just the actors on the stage. This game required some special skills that could only come from way outside the theatre and it's surroundings. In fact, beings from higher realms were approached to see if they'd enjoy playing this little game; sure enough, some did!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some beings agreed to "incarnate" right into the theatre itself. Now, that's a novel idea!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They decided to call these "walk-ins" and angelic incarnates. After all, the folks who were asleep were their "poor relations", distant cousins, and past incarnations, all "family". When higher beings put their heads together, they came up with all kinds of wild and crazy concepts. One group said a virtual time loop could be created, where a duplicate reality could spin off, like the loop de loo in roller coaster; each "car full" would represent one reality, and only the best reality would win. Another idea was to create a new "program" while the old ones were running, a literal switch would be pulled and the NEW program would intervene, leaving a hologram of the people in the theatres, with the real folks out. They called it the Real Switcheroo! In a way, it was reminiscent of the "Old West", where it was fun to break the "bad guys" out of jail. The jailers were viewed as the "bad guys". Ultimately, they knew that all participants were really part of a larger game, and there was no "right or wrong" way to do this., being only a game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, some folks have peered behind the magic curtain, to see the Wizard in action; every swing of society, its rise and fall, can be viewed from a different perspective outside the theatre. In fact, the theatre itself becomes so small that it shrinks to the size of a grain of sand on a beach; to hold the world in a grain of sand. It's possible to develop the ability to project oneself, being a "reality projector", outside of the theatre. Some refer to this shift of focus as changing the assemblage point. But we're not worried about labels, but about the under"lying" reality. Through the power of image-I-nation, it's even possible to create other worlds, from which one IS the projection, living in the theatre! One "Federation" came up with a novel idea; the Shell Game. This is where 3 saucer shaped discs swoop down onto the surface, and one beams a group aboard. The inter-galactic gamblers have to guess which ship the humans are in. In a flurry of activity, the ships dance and fly, and the game is usually won by the Federation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One last game will be mentioned here: the "Now You See Them, Now You Don't" Game. This is where individuals in the theatres are zapped out, leaving about half the theatre sitting there, astonished! Of course, they will be zapped out too, eventually. But there's no rush, since it's all based upon the pre-encoded DNA strands, which activate from their points of Origin. So, if you even suspect that you MIGHT be in one of these "theatres", wake up, smell the coffee, pretend to go to the snack bar to "buy stuff", then run out the front door as fast as you can! Your personal tour guide will be waiting patiently to show you around the Galaxy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Fellow Theatre Goer,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-1691812097160644166?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/1691812097160644166/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=1691812097160644166' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1691812097160644166'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1691812097160644166'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/12/pulling-back-projections.html' title='Pulling Back the Projections'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R1r-rFi1KXI/AAAAAAAAANk/ynKkVoIXe-8/s72-c/RollerCoaster.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-3583786621077143269</id><published>2007-11-25T14:33:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-25T14:54:48.204-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Deer'/><title type='text'>Things That Go Bump in the Night</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R0n5YsB5BiI/AAAAAAAAANE/GjFe4mTl6SQ/s1600-h/Buck_Deer.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5136911052524029474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R0n5YsB5BiI/AAAAAAAAANE/GjFe4mTl6SQ/s400/Buck_Deer.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I was awakened in the wee hours by a strange noise. At first, it sounded like someone had bumped up against my house. My dog sleeps with me, and she was safely tucked under the covers as she likes to do. At about three in the morning, I feel a gentle nudge of a wet nose against my arm or against the comforter. This is my "cue" to lift it up so she can scurry under and curl up in a warm, snug ball. This morning, she had already made her place there, and didn't seem as disturbed as I was about the noise. A few weeks ago, there was a real, live bear in the yard, so my thoughts went hither, thither and yon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bleary-eyed, I dismissed this perturbation as a mere trifle, and recomposed myself under the quilt. Soon, another noise startled me bolt upright: thrud, thrud, thrud. It sounded like nothing I could identify; there was no place that sound had been neatly recorded and filed away, so frantically I tried to identify the source. Stealthily, I arose and went to the window over the sink and peered out: nothing. The sound seemed to emanate from the other direction. Tip toeing, I slid back into the bedroom and pulled the curtains back to see, within a foot or two of my eyes, a buck deer sharpening his huge antlers on my Italian cypress! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;In retrospect, I should have just enjoyed the view, as there was nothing to be afraid of, and he wasn't destroying anything. In a knee jerk reaction, I opened the sliding window, which startled him out of his reverie, to prance off to the edge of the yard where he remained, defiantly staring in my direction. By then, I realized that it would be more fun to commune with him, make a friend, so I just talked nicely to him for a bit. I guess he found my conversation a bit boring at this time in the morning; he listened for about a minute, then bounced off with a baby deer who had accompanied him. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can certainly understand his point of view. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I do tend to go on about things, and once started am like a wind-up toy, or the Energizer Bunny! Still, on occasion I get lucky and the muse strikes with lightning precision; how, I know not. Sometimes, it feels as if I'm just a dictation machine, typing at the whim of the gods. Yet, are we not the very gods we fear, love and loathe? Truly we comprise the "godhead", if anything does, having incarnated trillions of times, and being multidimensionally poised in numerous dimensions and galaxies. That we're not aware of our "other selves" doesn't diminish our vastness. Even quantum physics is now "admitting" the existence of multiple dimensions, perhaps as many as ten!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It makes me laugh at the hubris of science, which dares not put a foot out on any limb too far, lest it get chopped off. From my own peculiar "understanding", which is largely intuitive and lacks very little evidence, there could be, and probably are, infinite dimensions existing simultaneously in the same space. Oh, I could never "prove it" to you, but when I'm able to step outside my ordinary daily existence, which happens too rarely for my pleasure, there is a clarity which can only be attained in "the moment". I guess this is why so many spiritual disciplines are designed to bring us back into this moment of "now", as that is all there is. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;br /&gt;Peggy Lee would not have had to sing her song, "Is That All There Is?" had she known this simple answer: the now. That is all there is. I agree with some of her lyrics, which are worth replicating: &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;IS THAT ALL THERE IS?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;I remember when I was a very little girl, our house caught on fire.I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me upin his arms and raced through the burning building out to the pavement.I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go up in flames.And when it was all over I said to myself, "Is that all there is to a fire"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;And when I was 12 years old, my father took me to a circus, the greatest show on earth.There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears.And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.And so I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle.I had the feeling that something was missing.I don't know what, but when it was over,I said to myself, "is that all there is to a circus?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Then I fell in love, head over heels in love, with the most wonderful boy in the world.We would take long walks by the river or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.We were so very much in love.Then one day he went away and I thought I'd die, but I didn't,and when I didn't I said to myself, "is that all there is to love?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;I know what you must be saying to yourselves,if that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all?Oh, no, not me. I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment,for I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath, I'll be saying to myself&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Is that all there is, is that all there is&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Let's break out the booze and have a ballIf that's all there is... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I beg to differ on one vital issue: that isn't all there is!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's a natural progression throughout many lifetimes, to experience "all that is" to eventually turn away from the outer pursuits and go inward, towards spirit, soul and All That Is.  But let's keep dancing anyway, and for those who like, "break out the booze", or the preferred method of bringing oneself happiness. I pondered that question today: what really makes me happy? In this moment of now, I came up with several "answers": &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;My dog&lt;br /&gt;Freedom&lt;br /&gt;Being me&lt;br /&gt;Sharing &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Those elements all reflect a similar source: love. The underlying current to all life, when in alignment with source, stripped of pretence, is love. Love of this, love of that, but love it is and that's where it's "at". Peering at today's world, I can't honestly say love is all there is; contrast exists. However, if it is indeed true that we are all One, and that Oneness is Love, then ultimately we ARE love. My guest last night, Vaishali, wrote a book "You Are What You Love". Maybe that's saying the same thing from a different angle. I'm often amazed how friends can lavish love on their four-legged friends, while riddled with self-loathing, confusion and lack self-esteem. If we could give a fraction of that love back to ourselves, what a different world it would be. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Just for today, let us be "in love", lavish love, on our Selves! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The strange mystery of the deer is a reminder that life is a mystery, not to be solved by the mind, but to be lived, loved and experienced in the only time there is…now. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;For now...&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-3583786621077143269?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/3583786621077143269/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=3583786621077143269' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3583786621077143269'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/3583786621077143269'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/11/things-that-go-bump-in-night.html' title='Things That Go Bump in the Night'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/R0n5YsB5BiI/AAAAAAAAANE/GjFe4mTl6SQ/s72-c/Buck_Deer.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5998490525095843079</id><published>2007-11-15T11:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-15T11:19:23.694-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Daffy'/><title type='text'>A Dead Duck Tells No Tails</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzyaLsB5BhI/AAAAAAAAAM8/3ezrPrl98Vc/s1600-h/daffy_duck_02-781920.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5133147200883852818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzyaLsB5BhI/AAAAAAAAAM8/3ezrPrl98Vc/s400/daffy_duck_02-781920.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A friend walked in today, carrying a dead Mallard duck in one hand as a gift. He'd just shot it. He then proceeded to show me how to strip the meat off. It was educational. When he asked, "Want to see what they eat?" is when my "squeamish button" went off. However, he grabbed the duck's craw, forced it to bulge out, then slit it. Surprisingly, what was inside was not too gory; grains. They eat grains. That was reassuring. I've written some "heavy" blog entries of late, and it seemed time to lighten up. After all, that's partially what en-light-enment is about. For those who might wonder, yes: I did eat the duck. Geesh…I hope it wasn't DAFFY! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;All of my blogs originate from my direct experiences. I can't always speak openly about the facts behind the "realizations", but the lessons are there, and I'm working through them and enjoy sharing; this is one way we all grow. We're in the awakening process together, like it or not; realize it or not, and each has their own "pace". Awakening doesn't have to be serious, heavy or boring. So I just ate the duck, having sautéed it briefly with garlic, while watching a French movie with subtitles and the sound off, so I could hear Shirley MacLaine on Coast to Coast AM. She was on during the first hour, and my proverbial jaw dropped when she casually said that our government is creating one fear-based event after another, to feed the military-industrial complex. I mean, I knew this already, but it was such a treat to finally hear someone of repute say it out loud. She spoke about UFOs and entities who are in nearby dimensions, naturally. It was refreshing to hear such a mature, confident and open discussion. She knows. We all know. Deep in our hearts, we do. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;And the heart is the key to the soul's power. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Real power with a POW comes from within. It's a light that shines brightly, when we align with our own higher information, higher self and Oversoul. Some might say these are all the same thing, but who cares? You say tomahto and I say tomaytoe. I like to view all this inner stuff like a holographic computer program: the body is the interface with the program. INside, resides "soul" and spirit. Spirit is an accumulation of etheric energies, which gather together when we are pure of heart. Soul is that which uniquely endures, through incarnations and lifetimes on the many planets and dimensions in which we exist simultaneously in the present "now", outside of time and space. Am I getting to "Woo Woo" yet? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;All that "stuff" needs to be managed somehow, so there is an Oversoul which manages all the different sparks or souls of which we are part. The higher self is the Self with a capital "S", and I liken it to the Source within; not to be confused with God, though everything IS God. My preferred name for God is "All That Is" (and isn't). Does that cover it all? Maybe. If not, amend it yourself! Now, spirit comes and goes; many refer to the higher aspects of spirit as the Holy Spirit. We all contain, or can, the finest of energies, the crème de la crème. All densities, dimensions and energies interpenetrate each other, and it is our resonance or vibration which attracts like energies; there's that darned "law of attraction" again! Now it ain't no secret, after all. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;~&lt;br /&gt;What makes spirit holy? Well, all spirit is holy and everything is sacred. The big snafu, is that we are not presently awake, living in veiled consciousness. As a result, our Omni Universal view is highly skewed; more like cross-eyed. The first 40 or 50 years of our lives we're busy accumulating knowledge, and for me, the rest of my life is about trying to UNlearn it! Is that anything like an UNcola? A blank slate is one on which creation writes. The moving finger writes, and, having writ, moves on… an old adage from some cavernous part of zee leetle gray matter. Did you know that if you could magnify the brain's surface, that it looks like dark clouds with lightning striking the surface? Yup. I saw it on "What the Bleep Do We Know Anyway". It must be true. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;To manage our daily lives, and keep us somewhat "on track" according to our pre-incarnational multi-leveled designs, we have numerous guides, angels and "Miscellaneous". It's 11:11 p.m. now, so synchronicity is telling me that I'm in the right place at the right time. That's how I'm choosing to interpret life's moments. Anyhoo, due to that "free will thing", higher entities are not supposed to violate our choice to "do it ourselves", like the Frank Sinatra song, "Doing it MY Way". That seems to be the way most of us, myself included, learn our "lessons" in the school of hard knocks. That school has knocked the cr*p out of me, so today I pay much more attention to life's daily offerings, or messages. I dislike the word "lessons", because it's so boring to think of being in some enormous classroom, taking tests, and being graded. I hated school. It was SO confining. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I'd like to imagine that I actually can think "outside the box", but in reality it isn't possible. We move out of one box and into a larger box, kind of like those Chinese nested boxes that get smaller and smaller, all fitting neatly within each other. Now, if I could think totally outside the box, it seems that words would not only be unnecessary, but a hindrance. More likely, symbols, colors and sounds would interplay in realms of higher consciousness. Possibly, geometrical shapes might morph like an enormous acid trip which never ends… hopefully, one isn't having a "bad" trip. I've had those. My bad. Also, what was considered three dimensional and real, would shift to seem TWO dimensional or FLAT. It's funny that television sets are moving from tubes shooting electrons to flat screens, and soon will catch up to provide 3D. Each successive jump provides greater clarity and depth, not unlike shifting dimensions. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Now, I'm not saying by a long shot that my description of things is how they ARE. All I'm saying is that this is a handy dandy template which shifts and changes as my views expand. In the meantime, it's just a story, and we each have our OWN stories. It helps with judgment when we begin to realize that everyone is right - for themselves. By putting ourselves in other's positions, we can attempt to see from other points of view. This expands our ability to be compassionate, and to learn to see differently from our own limited viewpoints. Some channels claim that we were designed to be inhabited by numerous souls, as a kind of Universal Playground where other entities could pop in and out to learn about life through our eyes. Anything is possible. Some folks certainly DO seem to have entities inside, and not ones that I'd care to meet. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Thuffering Thuckatash! Now, to a bit of trivia from Wikipedia: Daffy Duck first appeared on April 17, 1937 in "Porky's Duck Hunt". Bugs' ascension to stardom also prompted the Warner animators to recast Daffy as the rabbit's rival, intensely jealous and determined to steal back the spotlight, while Bugs either remained indifferent to the duck's jealousy or used it to his advantage. Daffy's vanity and excitedness provide Bugs Bunny the perfect opportunity to fool the hapless &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Elmer_Fudd"&gt;Elmer Fudd&lt;/a&gt; into repeatedly shooting the poor duck's &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Beak"&gt;bill&lt;/a&gt; off. This Daffy can do nothing that does not backfire on him, singeing his tailfeathers as well as his dignity. Well, there you have it…THIS dead duck ain't telling no more tails; at least not for today. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Th..Thatttt's ALL Folks!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Light and Laughter,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5998490525095843079?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5998490525095843079/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5998490525095843079' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5998490525095843079'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5998490525095843079'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/11/dead-duck-tells-no-tails.html' title='A Dead Duck Tells No Tails'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzyaLsB5BhI/AAAAAAAAAM8/3ezrPrl98Vc/s72-c/daffy_duck_02-781920.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-1037820551144449439</id><published>2007-11-14T22:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-14T22:23:49.752-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BALANCE'/><title type='text'>The "Y" in the Road</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzvkiMB5BgI/AAAAAAAAAM0/aEgqqQitrkw/s1600-h/300px-John_Martin_-_Sodom_and_Gomorrah.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132947476314654210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzvkiMB5BgI/AAAAAAAAAM0/aEgqqQitrkw/s400/300px-John_Martin_-_Sodom_and_Gomorrah.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sodom and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Gomorrah&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, by &lt;em&gt;John Martin&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;. . . . . . . . . . . . &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"There is no place where the presence of God is not; there are only people who are not fully present. You only have to be fully present to know all you need to know."&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Ken Carey, "The Third Millennium"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We approach a collective "Y" in the road. Hopis, and other native Americans, have prophecies which speak of this potential future. Now, more than ever, those who choose to ascend or evolve spiritually must be vigilant in maintaining total integrity. This includes being brutally honest with oneself, and speaking truthfully to the extent that we can. During the final stages of the Mayan calendar, or "end times" if you prefer, dark energies are unleashed upon humanity, which run amok if we are not fully present and inhabiting our bodies with full integrity. This is the "narrow path". It gets narrower. As the path becomes more difficult to navigate, we must create balance to keep from falling off the mountaintop. Paradoxically, this is both easy and difficult. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We are like mountaineers, climbing Mount Everest to see if we can do it. Many will fall by the wayside, but we keep plodding and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;trodding&lt;/span&gt; onward and upward towards our goal, the peak, which is kept in our mind's eye at all times. Never mind numbing cold, loose footing, or the near-falls. Holding one's truth makes the difference between regaining one's balance or falling to an abysmal death. There is no birth or death, as these are metaphors, and this is the time of "revelations", when truth will out. It will become impossible to conceal, lie or manipulate, and millions of people will get caught with their proverbial pants down, as in the fable of the Emperor's New Clothes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Whether one is taking a few pennies from the till, or transferring billions of dollars of other's monies into one's private coffers, the result is the same. In this case, size doesn't matter! Acting against one's conscience weakens the spiritual bodies, and the spirit cannot inhabit a body in which the personality is lying, manipulating and cheating. Ultimately, one is not gaining from stealth but losing oneself in the process. Justification, though easy, is not a good friend or relationship to develop. One can justify literally anything. This is another case where the supposed "winners" are actually spiritual losers; at least, until such time as these basic soul lessons are learned. There is no real "judgment" as to when or how the soul chooses to advance - or decline!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It's a time when we will need to walk that fine line of personal integrity and examine everything we think or do, as if under a microscope. Anything we withhold from ourselves becomes a dead weight which holds us down in the ascension process. While many seek short cuts, we can all find something within that has not been brought into the light of our own conscious awareness. Some have so much baggage stuffed in deep cavernous recesses, that were it to come up, it would blow like Mount Vesuvius! The "work" on oneself consists of reaching into one's own depths of darkness to forgive, embrace and heal in the cool, clear waters of the soul's light. Thus, compassion and understanding are fostered towards oneself, which naturally radiates outwards like a stone creating a ripple on a still pond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Each ripple going out eventually hits the far shore, cross rippling back and forth over the original movement to find its Source. And, like the pure and spotless lily flower, which grows out of the mud, so too do we become the thousand petaled lotus. This is the ancient symbol for the crown &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;chakra&lt;/span&gt;, which opens its many petals when it is our time to blossom. And timing is everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Namaste&lt;/span&gt;'&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-1037820551144449439?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/1037820551144449439/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=1037820551144449439' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1037820551144449439'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/1037820551144449439'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/11/y-in-road.html' title='The &quot;Y&quot; in the Road'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzvkiMB5BgI/AAAAAAAAAM0/aEgqqQitrkw/s72-c/300px-John_Martin_-_Sodom_and_Gomorrah.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-7501881458194482307</id><published>2007-11-14T14:37:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-14T14:42:53.239-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pleasures and attachments'/><title type='text'>Climbing the Mountain</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rzt50yxWYhI/AAAAAAAAAMs/KUr9Vv6Oa7c/s1600-h/socrates.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132830148207731218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rzt50yxWYhI/AAAAAAAAAMs/KUr9Vv6Oa7c/s400/socrates.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Picture of Socrates:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Socrates Tears Alcibiades from the Embrace of Sensual Pleasure, by &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Regnault"&gt;Jean-Baptiste Regnault&lt;/a&gt; (1791).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"To fear death is nothing other than to think oneself wise when one is not. For it is to think one knows what one does not know. No one knows whether death may not even turn out to be the greatest blessings of human beings. And yet people fear it as if they knew for certain it is the greatest evil."&lt;br /&gt;SOCRATES (470 BC to 399 BC)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We have two themes before us: In the painting, Socrates tears Alcibiades from the Embrace of Sensual Pleasure. Is Socrates acting out of jealousy, or does this painting go deeper? I suspect there are deeper truths to extract. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;One element I see is the more noble attempt to "save" the young man from the temptations of pleasure. This is more in keeping with Socrates' philosophy. Why should the temptations of pleasure be harmful, even in those times? The picture says it all: attachment. By succumbing to the pleasures of the body, which are all in the mind, we choose to dwell mainly in the lower chakras. Most of life's lessons are like a dance: one, two three; one, two three and repeat. We rarely step outside of this basic 3 step, unless an "outside force" knocks us out of this cycle. An exception occurs for those who realize there's something more to life who begin searching outside the reality which has minimal contact with spirit. Daily, we see and hear others who are like children, acting out in relationships. Though priceless lessons can be learned, it appears that most are literally stuck in repetitious and unattractive cycles, which include bringing new souls onto the planet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Once the soul has ventured out of the ordinary mundane world, and has felt the excitement of discovering new concepts about evolution, God, the Universe and more, a kind of magnetic center begins forming within. This center, which is not a real center at all, but a collection point for things spiritual, grows until the seeker can no longer contain himself and needs to connect to a Real Source. There are many living Teachers or Gurus walking the earth today, most unassuming and unknown. How does one connect to a real Teacher, who is in turn connected to Source and can teach from that level? It's said, "when the student is ready, the Teacher will arrive." Preconceived notions will not help in finding that special relationship. It may come out of the blue, and it may be a relationship with Oneself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Some seek solace and answers in religion. However, God is not limited to any one religion or even religion at all. God cares only about a person's heart, not a person's religious affiliation or church membership. The NDE reveals that the way to heaven is through love because love is God. Love is not limited to only one religion or culture because love is universal. This truth is too immense and profound to be fully understood or embodied in any one religion. Others seek esoteric or "hidden" knowledge that has been concealed from life's spoiling qualities, kept intact for the true seeker to study and learn, working up through the ranks or "degrees". This too has many pitfalls. Most often, those who are in various "orders" do not know what the true intent is of the highest within the order, and ego prevails. Today, dark forces have infiltrated the highest levels and are running things from the top down, similar to the "all seeing eye" on the top of the pyramid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This leaves us another avenue to ultimate truths: within. It is a valid path to begin turning away from what is "outside oneself" towards the unknown, within. This journey may include contacts with guides, angels, assistants, miracles, synchronicities, the Akashic records and more. From the quote above from Socrates, death might be a wonderful experience, not an event to fear and dread. There was a time when I didn't believe there was a soul that could come and go within the human body. Today, I view all beings as souls temporarily wrapped in flesh. We can see how these two views differ. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Those who don't believe in a soul, or who may not make time to ponder this question, are more likely to be attached to life's meager offerings; all that glitters. This brings us back to the concept of more, better and different. Material things cannot bring happiness. When the ego realizes this, it tries to get more; then better things, then different. This is another 3-step dance which consumes us in its attachments. Between the attachment to some "other half" and life's offerings, it's a miracle that anyone develops spiritually. Yet, we do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The material world has its sting. In today's news, we learn that the United States has set a new record for sexually transmitted diseases. There is a "superbug" version of Gonorrhea which is resistant to common antibiotics, according to "officials". Could we be living in a modern day version of Sodom and Gomorrah? True, the tales recounted in the Bible are largely metaphors, but isn't everything a metaphor? In many ways, we are living metaphors whose "realities" exist outside of time and space, while this reality reflects ower density vibrations. As we ascend the ladder of our own evolution, we can begin to view life from a different perspective, free from judgment and morality. Morality varies from culture to culture, and most of it is false, inherited or the result of living in duality: either-or thinking. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It's helpful to be "out of your mind" to awaken!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;In the painting, we have a sense of Socrates attempting to "save" the youth from his follies. Yet, as all of us know, that is not only impossible, but unwise. After all, don't we often learn our greatest lessons from our mistakes? We can transform our follies, and embrace our own "dark side". I think the fear of death is largely the result of a nagging conscience. We know what we "should do", and more often than not we are not listening or following our own highest information. As death approaches, the contemplation of a life after death rears its head. What if there is a soul that is eternal and infinite, and what if there is a God who knows all we do? Well, the first thing we must learn to do is forgive ourselves. I know it's said that Christ died for our sins, but we must still make the effort for our Selves. No one else, not even the great Christ himself, can do our work for us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Recently, I took a wrong turn and followed a path that was leading downward. I received a "rude awakening", which jolted me back to my extra-senses, and into the world of spirit, which is all there is. In some ways, it appears to have been a close call. However, our higher self and Oversoul create "shocks" for a reason. If you are experiencing shocks or disturbances in relationships at this time, it's important to review your life with honesty and take a long, hard look. I did, and I didn’t like what I saw. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is "the work". We must tear ourselves away from our own demons, temptations, whatever forms they take. In the painting by Regnault, we see the metaphor for all our attachments, not just in the form of physical relationships. The painting expands our awareness in ways that we can relate to. Now, it's up to us to apply this knowledge to our own lives and see where we are falling short of our own soul's purpose. We all "deviate" on occasion, and there are no judges but ourselves. So, forgive, learn and move onward and upward. The mountaintop is now within view.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many Blessings,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-7501881458194482307?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/7501881458194482307/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=7501881458194482307' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7501881458194482307'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/7501881458194482307'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/11/climbing-mountain.html' title='Climbing the Mountain'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rzt50yxWYhI/AAAAAAAAAMs/KUr9Vv6Oa7c/s72-c/socrates.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-6499800992518960877</id><published>2007-11-09T15:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-09T15:40:21.568-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dessert'/><title type='text'>Let Them Eat Cake!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzTvx-sjUhI/AAAAAAAAAMk/jDkeON1epqc/s1600-h/dessert_big.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130989517404328466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzTvx-sjUhI/AAAAAAAAAMk/jDkeON1epqc/s400/dessert_big.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;"Spiritual training is not about raising your head and looking up. It is about lowering your head and learning humility and honesty. From the movie, "The Myth" with Jackie Chan&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The Roman Empire must have had its excesses, as did the English aristocracy, when Marie Antoinette said, "Let them eat cake!" Of course, she might have been merely suggesting that since there's no bread, let them eat cake. Either way, it cost her head. Today, cake is not affordable. For example, on Yahoo's home page we learn about a dessert which costs a mere $25,000.00. Fancy that. In an age when millions around the globe are literally starving to death, homeowners in America are losing their homes, we continually have the "lifestyles of the rich and famous" shoved down our poor throats.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is no accident indeed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are reminded of the enormous gap between the wealthy elite and the common man. Due to many factors, including the falling dollar, the middle class is becoming a thing of the past. Some say the elite are intentionally bleeding us dry, in order to collapse the economy, create emergencies, then offer solutions; such as NAFTA and micro chipping everyone. This is sure to come up in the not-too-distant future, as their "timetable" is running a few years behind. These kind people, who start wars and murder decent folks, including Presidents, had planned on "wrapping up world domination" by the year 2000.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clearly, something is amiss. Oh well, try harder! And, they did; hence, 9/11. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Most people in the world probably wonder if it's possible that there's more to 9/11 than meets the eye. I, for one, do. But this isn't a conspiracy rant, it's a commentary on the nature of greed and excess. We know that Empires, just prior to their collapse, experience huge chasms between the poor masses and the elite, who literally drip with diamonds, gold, money, houses, servants, etc. Also inclusive are sports. Though we don't behead anyone today, we have NASCAR, baseball, football and soccer; all which bring in billions, if not trillions, of dollars for their owners. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the originator of the "est training" aptly stated, "When people are immersed in material pursuits, invariably they end up playing the same game: More, Better and Different. When what they have is not satisfying, they try getting More. As the glitter fades from having more, the next step is getting Better stuff. And, once that no longer blows your skirt up, the last step is trying something Different. Most folks end up caught in a rat's maze or hamster wheel of differing combinations of all three, to find fulfillment which never arrives. One can lose one's soul in this process. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Spirituality 101 tells us that the material world is not "where it's at", unless you're hooked on The Secret. That movie capitalizes on one tiny aspect of creation, to justify being spiritual AND obnoxiously wealthy. What usually happens is that those who fall prey to this trap only imagine they are being spiritual, and are often simply giving lip service to assuage guilt. Again, we must examine our true motives and intent to discover who we serve. Are we self-serving, indifferent, or in "service to others" living from the heart?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spirituality includes connecting to one's OWN Spirit, not trying to micro manage everyone else's. It also means working on bringing up, healing, resolving and releasing one's own baggage or "stuff". This is not an overnight process, and few want to hear about it. In fact, we're all looking for that shot in the arm, the "quick fix", be it DNA activation, Kundalini experience, or "instant manifestation creation". Whatever the name, the essence of all these fast food spiritual products is that they are supposed to work - FAST. Speedy Alka-Seltzer for Fast relief!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been studying the human potential for over 35 years, trying this esoteric school, that transformational seminar, Vipassana, Zen, drugs, and more, and I can tell you from where I sit that anything worthwhile is usually going to take some effort and some time. This is the bitter pill most don't want to swallow. It's the pill Neo took, and look at the price tag he paid! But we're not in Neo's Matrix, we're in our own Matrix and the view is almost as dismal if you peer into the sub-atomic realms. Which brings us to the point: the Real world is not the material world concocted from illusion, bread and circuses. It is invisible. As such, our five senses do not penetrate its secrets as easily. It takes empathy, intuition and developed psychic faculties, which DO reside within each of us, and CAN be activated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I liken this to developing "spiritual muscles" through working out on the metaphysical planes. Everyone has a ticket, but most poor suckers don't realize it's in their pockets, if only they would wake up and LOOK! Life is a banquet; remember? We're presently poised on the brink of many changes, choices and "realities". The reality we end up with is largely the result of our choices today. Of course, who we are includes multiple selves, spanning time and space, but that's yet another story. Right now, we're only concerned with the person sitting in this chair, which is you - and me. From that position, we can develop inner qualities which can connect us non-locally, outside of our familiar time and space. Some call this experience "out of body" or OBE. Others recount "near-death experiences", or NDEs; then, there's Astral travel and meditational states.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We don't need to leave our bodies in order to be present in this moment and raise our consciousness. In fact, it's better to be grounded with the earth "below", our grounding cord extending into the middle of our beloved friend, Terra "not so firma", and higher energies beaming into our Crown Chakra, to merge in the middle, blend, and balance all the chakras within. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We can also "tune" or regulate these vortexes ourselves. So, there are many "realities" we can tap or tune into beyond the material world and Madonna's greatest hits. I find it easiest to "listen" through my solar plexus or "gut", which always provides me with an accurate assessment of life's offerings. By listening and following its subtle hints and advice, which is not spelled out in words such as those we use to communicate with now, we are always guided perfectly and synchronistically.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That seems to be a good point to segue out of this wacky blog, whose points meander all over the place, much to the chagrin of the author. I leave you now with a few thoughts, which I've gleaned from others over the years: Relax, develop an ability to "detach" from the material world, (Buddha's non-attachment) which forms lower manifestations in the physical realms. Learn to trust your Self and a Higher Power of your preference to provide an excess of everything needed at the perfect moment. Then, work on opening the heart, the gateway to the soul, which reveals that we're all One spirit, and that what we do to another we are doing to ourselves. By seeing through the eyes of compassion, without judging, we float over the surface of life like a surfer riding the "big Kahuna". We're in the big wave now, and it's becoming a tidal wave - of consciousness!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best Wishes,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-6499800992518960877?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/6499800992518960877/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=6499800992518960877' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/6499800992518960877'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/6499800992518960877'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/11/let-them-eat-cake.html' title='Let Them Eat Cake!'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RzTvx-sjUhI/AAAAAAAAAMk/jDkeON1epqc/s72-c/dessert_big.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5363997704764542606</id><published>2007-10-21T13:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-10-21T13:51:08.295-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self-remembering'/><title type='text'>Looking into the Mirror</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rxu1YwRAmbI/AAAAAAAAAMc/VFoMkHxs4YM/s1600-h/MOOJI.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5123888437941803442" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rxu1YwRAmbI/AAAAAAAAAMc/VFoMkHxs4YM/s400/MOOJI.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Looking into the Mirror&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We begin our lives in unity. From there, we distinguish between "I" and "not I". This journey, or stretching of the rubber band of existence, forms a figure eight in which we imagine ourselves to be separate, only to discover that we are one AND separate at the same time. It's a paradox, in that the mind cannot solve it, yet the heart can intuit and feel the truth of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some beings who incarnate are blessed with "total recall", not unlike the most excellent movie with California's Governor, Arnold Schwartzeneger. Life is a journey of remembering. Ultimately, it's a work in progress of "self-remembering", as the Greek-Armenian Master, Georges I. Gurdjieff brought to light through his Fourth Way Schools. Many adult Indigos, children of Indigos, Crystals, Rainbows, starseed and walk-ins seem to have reached a more advanced level of awakening, but I like to refer to this "awakening process" in terms of nanoseconds, and as a "process" that we are all engaged in, like it or not, here I come! Pin the tail on the donkey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For truly, none are "ahead", since this figure eight or infinity symbol, which ultimately refers to the head of god, or Godhead, is in truth Itself reaching back into itself, experiencing itself, and loving itself back into Unity Consciousness. The veils or membranes which artificially separate levels of awareness, are dissolving at various rates according to our ability to absorb more light frequencies. To this end, "higher energies", call them angels, guides, ascended masters, avatars, star beings, illumined ones, or pick your own labels, are assisting humanity to raise its vibration in order to play "catch up", or the game of hide and seek, with the Creator. It's a very old game indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This game involves a lot of humor. However, to "get" the cosmic joke, one must be able to be in a state other than negativity, fear and chaos. Those are "lower vibrations". One can start with any spoke of the wheel, starting from wherever one is "at", as that is one's "life", which is designed by none other than the greatest artist of "life creations", YOU! Yes, it is you who created this life in which "you", the seemingly separate entity of evolution, the "pinnacle of consciousness" are now reading this post, which is a mirror being held up by another fragment of "you". You, are all One. Okay, so that's an old saying said by many, but it seemed to work in the moment. So sue me! It'll be a long suit, and I hold the Aces, as well as the material from which this suit is being crafted!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is my attempt at humor, so humor me…just for another nanosecond of your time, or "moment". In the eternity and infinity of all that is, the awakening process will have seemed, once it's "happened", in your future, to have happened in a brief instant of your time. While you are in the process of discovery, it seems like an eternity. This is, happily, an illusion created by yourselves designed to slow the experience down so that you, dear friends, can savor the moment to its fullest. After all, in the BILLIONS of years, and you can say "billions" as if you were Carl Sagan, because some part of you IS, the moment of your own awakening is chosen by none other than the same artisan who is crafting this, your life. Oh, it may not "appear" like a work of art, such as the Mona Lisa, Michelangelo's David, or some other famous piece of craftsmanship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, during your lifetime, are you not seen and experienced by many thousands of other "artisans", who are themselves crafting their own experience from the beyond, meaning their souls, in a similar fashion? Only the timing seems to be different, yet if you could view the timing from the "other side" of the veil of illusions, you would see that there are but nanoseconds difference, if even that. And, timing is everything. A comedian knows "good timing". Look at the films of Laurel and Hardy, W.C. Fields, for example. They were "in the moment", and knew how to create those moments in such a way as to "tickle the fancies" of many. So much so, they have become "comedy classics".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each soul is a "comedy classic", or "tragic Greek drama", for those who are presently living out a different aspect of the cosmic play. But it's all good, it's all God, and on some level, it's all FUNNY. To "get" the joke, one must step out of oneself. This is easier than it sounds, really. You do it all the time; each time you are able to put yourself in another's position, you are stepping out of yourself. This is a valuable skill to develop. For one thing, it creates the ability to feel compassion. Compassion is a comradery of passion for one another. One is able to walk, for a moment, in someone else's shoes. This adds dimension to the soul, which is multi-dimensional in nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently, I tried walking in another's shoes. I walked as far as possible, then had to stop. Were I to proceed much further, I would become that person, and lose "me" in the process. This is where a fork in the road appeared, and I chose to be myself. This choice entailed a "financial readjustment". Sometimes, we must choose to give up something in the temporary illusion of life, in order to gain something in the realm of spirit, which represents eternal life. It's called "being true to one's Self". Life is full of choices. By continuing to choose the "high road", the low road disappears from view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those who are "unable", due to an un willingness to feel other's pain and joy, to share these experiences from the heart, are depriving themselves of life's bounty. Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death; just ask anyone in Darfur. Starvation is an experience for a large percentage of this world's population. One cannot reach the dizzying heights of wealth and power without someone paying the price. Great wealth creates an imbalance. When this imbalance becomes intolerable, the power and wealth shift themselves around. We are approaching a moment in time when the "middle class", as the class in earth school is called, will soon be experiencing great lack. This may take the form of joblessness, poverty, lack of food and water, or homelessness. If you are willing to sacrifice yourselves on the altar of materialism, so that a select few can reach the "eye of the pyramid", that is a matter of choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Meher Baba says, "Be happy." The imbalances which mankind has artificially created, for the advantage of the few, will be corrected. But the correction might not come from NESARA, or from spaceships landing from the skies to make it all "right". The imbalance might begin its course correction through severe hardship. This is not meant as judgment, it's a call to awaken the heart to the love within. It's a time to see the mirror of self and other as one. It's a time to see black and starving, not as a skin color that's different or "less than", but as an aspect of the Oneself that needs a helping hand. Perhaps no one person can "save the world", but it does take one person to stand up for light and love, to make the difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All great movements begin with one. True, that person is a metaphor, but the collective consciousness always elects its "spokesperson" to signal or herald great change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And change begins from within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's now time to look into the face of others, and see the mirror of Self being held up. What you see is what you get. WYSIWYG. What you FEEL is another story. Is it the Never-ending Story? We shall see, said the blind man…we shall see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many Blessings,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;=======================================&lt;br /&gt;*Picture taken from "Mooji and Friends" photographic gallery at his website, here:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.mooji.org/gallery.html&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1528233374639287919-5363997704764542606?l=zanymystic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/feeds/5363997704764542606/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1528233374639287919&amp;postID=5363997704764542606' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5363997704764542606'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1528233374639287919/posts/default/5363997704764542606'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://zanymystic.blogspot.com/2007/10/looking-into-mirror.html' title='Looking into the Mirror'/><author><name>Zany Mystic</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/Rxu1YwRAmbI/AAAAAAAAAMc/VFoMkHxs4YM/s72-c/MOOJI.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528233374639287919.post-5571296064249386729</id><published>2007-09-08T13:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-08T13:25:58.063-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Shasta'/><title type='text'>Coming Down from the Mountain</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RuMFCuMvKrI/AAAAAAAAAMU/lNFCbKt47JI/s1600-h/MtShasta.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5107931946687605426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_aQf3WCuarzc/RuMFCuMvKrI/AAAAAAAAAMU/lNFCbKt47JI/s400/MtShasta.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's been a while since I've written a blog entry. It seems to spark when the Muse strikes, when my heart is full, or when words simply place themselves down on the electronic paper. Over that, I have little control.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This entry is inspired by a visit from my Aussie friend, Liz Millar. Liz is a DJ and fellow BBS Radio host for her own show called Otherware, which is also the name of her group at Yahoo. She spent two days with me here in the country, "chatting by the fireside", then we journeyed up the mountain; THE mountain, Mount Shasta. My last trip there was fraught with difficulty, as I was not in the space to connect. It was more about "getting" something that I thought I didn't have. True, I met one of my radio guests, Jean-Claude Koven, heard David Icke talk about love and reptilians, and learned about eating prana from Jasmuheen. But this time, I went with Zen mind, a beginner's mind, curious and open.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the first day, we were in alignment that in order to "see", it was necessary to make a small sacrifice on the altar of our comfort by arising early. The owner of the hotel shared his recent metaphysical experience on the mount, and said that it's best to be "up there" at sunrise or sunset. It reminded me of Jean-Claude Koven's book, "Going Deeper" where his talking dog drags him to the desert at the crack of dawn to commune with raccoons, rocks and cacti. It always strikes me that the MultiVerse presents itself to us both mysteriously and plainly, for those with eyes to "see". In this instance, the mention of arising, which was accompanied by a biblical quote, was a "match" with Liz's desire to arise in order to be at a special spot at sunrise. And so it was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She'd been told about a mystical place which was a teleportation area to Telos, the city within the mountain where Lemurians are said to live. We went, parked and began our trek. Going up the mountain didn't feel right to either of us, so we returned and tried a different route. The second route didn't resonate either. We were led to meet Celeste, the camp's guide, who warmly took us under her divinely feminine wings and led us to a place down the hill. There, she filled a large water bottle from the cold spring which emerges from the mountain. The water was crisp, clean and refreshing. We then followed our intuition. Further down, it was as if we were "tuning" together. We both felt an urge to depart to the right, to see what was over the crest of a small rise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the other side, besides the warmth of the rising sun, was a strange plateau of oddly angled and seemingly carved rocks. There were triangles, markers and energy stones, intentionally placed as if by a Master. It wasn't "the" spot, but it was our spot. For whatever reason, we'd been led to this mysterious place, made memorable by our shared feelings. Eventually, we returned to regroup with Kelsey, who became our guide for the second trek up the mountain. That afternoon, Kelsey showed us the spot with crystals placed in a circle where he'd experienced a vision from Telos. We then descended to a place called the "Ascension Chair". Off the beaten path, this is an unusual gathering of enormous stones which look as if they had fallen out of the sky. There's a spot where one is supposed to sit on the rock, which is considered a place of ascension. I meandered off alone, and found several other spots which were of greater interest. It seems to be my blessing and my curse that I rarely "follow the crowd". My path seems to beat to a different drum; maybe it's not even a drum, but a horn, a piano or a piccolo!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friday, Liz had arranged to do a video interview with Amorah Quan Yin. Amorah has impeccable integrity and clearly walks her talk. During the hour and a half we were there taping, she spoke about many things, some not in any of her books. Liz will post the video to You Tube, and I'll send the link when she does. It's outstanding. A common "complaint" from light workers, Indigos and starseed, is one of being here and wanting to "ascend" to get away from this density. Amorah indicated that those who teach the necessity of ascension as a "leaving behind" are misguided. Avatars such as Christ, Buddha or the Ascended Masters, teach being here to assist in "service to others". Ascension is not about leaving. It's about remaining and anchoring higher frequencies, light, love and Heaven on Earth for all to experience. Getting away misses the point. We chose to be here now, prior to incarnating. The sooner we turn and face our own "stuff", the faster we move through it to the freedom of spirit and soul that awaits on the "other side". This is both metaphoric and literal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Afterwards, we went to Mt. Shasta's Middle Earth to pick up two incredible holographic bowls Liz resonated to the day before. There were some fun shops on the main drag, but both of us gravitated towards a small shop with no sign. Inside, a virtual wonderland of crystals opens up, in room after room of beauty, energy and consciousness. It's laid out similar to a maze. I continued following my nose to a back room, where there were singing bowls out to play. Since Liz just completed Tom Kenyon's sound healing intensive, she was particularly interested in the use of crystal bowls for healing. An old soul named Beverly walked by, suggesting we listen to the latest holographic crystal bowls for comparison. All I can say is wow. From there, we were taken to a "hidden room" which was literally lined with Lemurian crystals and every crystal bowl imaginable. These Lemurian crystals had been found in South America laying on the sand, not mined. To visit the crystal website, click on this link: &lt;a href="http://www.crystalsmtshasta.com/"&gt;www.crystalsmtshasta.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listening to Beverly speak about unity consciousness, crystals and singing bowls was a continuation of the profound experience we'd just had with Amorah. Liz got her camera out and taped a session with Bev, who played the bowls and explained clearly and plainly what they did, how and why. This interview will be uploaded to You Tube as well, and is worth watching and hearing. In fact, I asked both Amorah and Beverly to be on a future radio show, and both agreed. So much happened that it's impossible to relay but a fleeting glance, but one thing for certain - Mt. Shasta is a truly magnificent, magical spot. Amorah said the mountain is the equivalent of the crown Chakra for the earth. I was relieved to hear that the 144,000 who agreed to embody and anchor Christ Consciousness here at this time, had anchored sufficient light, with many other light workers, to ensure smooth sailing from this point forward. She spoke about living "impeccably", something that Werner Erhardt spoke about in the 70's through his "est" and "Six Day" trainings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are our word. To advance we must keep our word, and it's invaluable to follow the thread back into our thoughts and emotions, where the spring of our Selves bursts forth as the interface between multiple dimensions. Each of us is valuable just as we are in this moment. The most important teaching to "get" is the one which is delivered within, through trusting one's intuitive Self. That is a crucial lesson which catapults us forward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;True, we need one another as mirrors and teachers, but no one has "The Way" because each of us is a living manifestation of a unique golden thread which creates the fabric of the Whole. We are both Microcosm and the Macrocosm. As much as I admire those who seem to have a more insightful way of knowing, I'm learning to accept and allow my own truth to flow naturally. It's not as obvious as communicating with Ascended Masters, or seeing orbs, light beings, UFOs or other metaphysical manifestations, true. But both Liz and I were led in the same directions wherever we went, and our shared intuition was flawless. She travels on to San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, England and India, with two new children birthed at Mt.

It was an amazing performance. The energy felt light, airy and very high. Fascinating to watch them fly like helicopters or hummingbirds without the need to land or consume food. My imagination went wild as they swooped near me; are they fairies, angels or et's, visiting to say "hello"? Whatever they "are", the energy was curious and highly intelligent. They knew I was there, and had come to pay a visit! I said "hello" to each and every one, with respect and awe. In fact, I was honored to be visited by such lovely creatures! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;They eat mosquitoes, are the world's fastest insects, whose &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Compound_eye"&gt;compound eyes&lt;/a&gt; have up to 30,000 facets, each of which is a separate light-sensing organ or &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Ommatidia"&gt;ommatidium&lt;/a&gt;, arranged to give nearly a 360° &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Field_of_vision"&gt;field of vision&lt;/a&gt;. It was recently discovered that dragonflies employ a particular &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Optical_illusion"&gt;optical illusion&lt;/a&gt;, termed &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Motion_camouflage"&gt;motion camouflage&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/%20_note-2"&gt;[3]&lt;/a&gt;, to stalk other insects that invade their territory. Research suggests that a dragonfly can move in such a way as to project itself as a stationary object while speedily attacking its victims. These findings illustrate for the first time how dragonflies use complex &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Camouflage"&gt;camouflaging&lt;/a&gt; techniques during aerial combat.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;There is a great pulling and pushing from many sides. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;It's a time when we must learn to TRUST OURSELVES. This is not an overnight process, but it can be instantaneous, like mini-enlightenments. The most obvious sources of discord are manifesting over "Fire the Grid". &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;What appears to be a simple moment in time has thrust some people into doubt, fear and even hostility. I have to laugh at our endless need to throw a monkey wrench into everything that's positive. Well, it's time for that 100th monkey to "make up its mind". Once it does, everything will shift into a higher vibration. It's about aligning with others of like mind with the highest intent possible. Fire the Grid is about healing ourselves through an intent to heal the planet. In reality, the planet is already "there" and healed. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;So, it's really about learning to be of service to others by holding a "love vibration" for as long as we choose on July 17th. No matter what we "do" or do not do, it's about loving ourselves into higher vibrations.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Who benefits? We all do!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Fear is the mind killer, as is the message from the science fiction movie, DUNE and DOUBT is the devil's greatest weapon. When we trust ourselves, and something enters to cast a shadow of doubt, everything crumbles and falls apart within. This is the lesson we can learn as part of reclaiming our power and magnificence. No one can convince us that we are "human angels", as KRYON repeatedly states. Not even Christ himself can make us believe that "all these things, and greater shall ye do". We hold Christ up as something to be worshipped from afar, but the message is very clear: we must learn how to love one another, and to empower each other to be greater than the sum of the parts. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Christ is alive and well, and "he" resides within us. Many are "getting" his timeless message now. It's okay that it might take 2,000 years to learn, but others remain clueless, clinging to pomp and ceremony and "intermediaries" to get through the gates. In reality, there never WERE gates in the first place. We created them to challenge ourselves and to create obstacles to our evolution. Isn't it time to stop our foolishness, and grow up?&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;There's a time and place when we must go through the gates of trust on an individual basis. This is the beauty of all creation. There is something for everyone, and not everything is for every body. We are accustomed to seeing ourselves as "less than" any entity that demonstrates greater power and is not human. Angels, star beings, Mother Mary, Christ and the Ascended Masters are energies which we automatically revere, falling to our knees in prostration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Religion reinforces the distance between our Creator(s) and our Selves. Sooner or later, everything must move forward and "give up childish things." We are graduating from kindergarten and must begin to act with full self-esteem as EQUALS at the table. All are equal in the eyes of God. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;When advanced beings reveal themselves and angels walk the earth, it's important not to give all our power away in awe. We are coming into our own as Co-Creators, worthy of the greatest Love and Light. We can, and must, hold our heads high, as brothers, sisters, and children of God.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;What does this have to do with dragonflies?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Everything is energy. Regardless what's "seen", we can connect to every living thing, and there is nothing that is NOT alive in the MultiVerse.* We've learned to distinguish objects as animate or inanimate, and that is part of 3D duality some are now leaving behind; others have already left. Just ask Elvis! Once you are no longer IN the 3D building, and are outside the frequency of fear, duality and negativity, it's possible to experience clarity of vision. This doesn’t mean that everything around will appear different. I too fall into the trap of "thinking". Thinking that there might be some kind of metaphysical mumbo jumbo in which everything APPEARS different. Expectations keep the reality of "now" from appearing as it is. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Realities are shifting on the inner planes, and the planes are taking OFF!&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I have a dear friend who is having a terrible time with self esteem. It's painful to watch her move a step forward, then shoot herself in the foot, after nailing both feet to the floor. It brings home the truth that no one can "do" the inner work for us. Inner work is a process that which takes time to process. Self-esteem is an ongoing issue for many, including those in their 60's and older who never broke through those chains. Yet chains are held together loosely by beliefs, and beliefs can be changed. The question is, how? What builds self-esteem overnight? How can we begin to see ourselves differently when all our belief systems are designed to hold us down? There is no simple answer. I know for myself, the process has been a very long and painful one. Being "gay" has forced me to come to terms with life's judgments, and "know myself" at the deepest levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;There will never be complete acceptance of those who are "different". We choose our lifestyles in order to break through the chains of other's beliefs, and emerge on the other side triumphant. Today, there is nothing to change in the world, and nothing to "prove" to others or to myself. I accept myself completely "as is", faults and all. The ability to love ourselves is a precious gift. When others compliment us, or express love towards us, it helps to let the love IN and ACCEPT it. When we buffer the positive, and say, "Oh, no you don't." or when we accept it outwardly then deny it inwardly, it's like committing emotional suicide. Unconscious aspects of ourselves get a charge from feeling "less than" and enjoy wallowing in self pity. Believing that we are useless is just a belief. Any belief can be changed.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It's also helpful to expand the love we have to include ALL THINGS, and to especially embrace those who tempt us to dislike, judge or even hate. Forgiving and accepting others as they are empowers ourselves. Loving others, even if from afar, is a form of loving Self. It is a healing process. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Every time I forgive someone else for perceived "wrongs", another brick of self-esteem builds my own "home". Holding onto judgments of others, especially those who have "done me wrong" in the past, removes vital life-force and creates blockages within that slowly eat away to eventually manifest as illness and dis-ease. This one cause of ailments; clinging to resentments, judging others, and being "self-righteousness". The key to releasing these negative energies is through loving our enemy as ourseves. Jesus got that one right, no doubt about it! Forgiving others frees us up to live fully. Clinging to being right puts a ball and chain around our necks.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I don't consider myself a "Christian", but then I'm not ANY label. None of us are labels. Labels are words, and words are not the thing in itself. We are so much more than our bodies, our thoughts, our emotions. We are not our sexual preference, skin color or our "careers". We are living spirit wrapped in flesh.   We are connected at the highest levels and there, all is One.  Most identify with the flesh part without considering spirit within, the true source, connected to a higher self which exists multidimensionally outside of time and space. Everything is inter-connected to All That Is. Isn't it also time to expand our conscious awareness outside the confines of the miniscule boxes we live in? It's as if we live in a small sandbox with a few toys, while outside that sandbox the real world waits for us to grow up so we can crawl out and discover the excitement, mystery and the "unimaginable".&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This sandbox contains wars, hatred, greed, death, destruction, and hierarchies of controllers who work feverishly towards the age old goal of "world domination". How boring. If these same folks applied a fraction of the energy used to gobble up all the world's wealth and power and used it for spiritual pursuits, everything would instantly shift into harmony, peace and prosperity for all. When we see and know at the deepest core levels that we are all one being, one entity expressing in different forms, then we learn the lesson that what is done to one we are doing to our Selves. The business of exclusion, the belief that some should be like gods, running the entire show at the expense of the rest, is an example of service to self at its extreme. There is no love or compassion necessary to acquire great wealth, yet we're led to admire the rich and famous as great achievers. If money has to become worthless for us to learn the ephemeral nature of matter and to value the treasures of spirit, then that lesson is worthwhile.&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;It's time to turn away from material and move into our true homes, our many mansions of wholly Spirit.  Heaven is already here, on earth.  Shift perspective, open your metaphysical I's and "See".  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Many Blessings,&lt;br /&gt;Zany Mystic&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;* To learn more about the MultiVerse, and for a wealth of valuable material, check out The Reconnections, channeled through Daniel Jacob, here:&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.reconnections.net/"&gt;http://www.reconnections.net/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Permission granted to reproduce and share this post in entirety.

I think this is the reason the planets all go retro. It's an opportunity to repeat on a short term scale, past mistakes and then leave them behind at a higher level. It makes sense, and everything in this Universe makes sense if you know how to look at it from the right perspective.  The energies right now feel like a switch has been turned ON. That doesn't always happen, and it comes and goes. If I thought about it long enough, I'd probably make more astrological connections. The planets are also archetypes and metaphors.  As above, so below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know this is understand in a symbolic way, which leads to unity of thought in which many things are simply "understood" without having to think about them. Just point and click; focus and "see". It's really that simple. Perhaps we are moving closer to being able to tap into greater dimensions. TIMING IS EVERYTHING. This is something that we know at the deepest levels, yet forget and need to be reminded about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our consciousness rises and falls like the tides right now. The moon pulls on water, and we are mostly water. The sun creates its OWN pull, through its magnetics and flares, which creates a kind of taffy-like motion with our evolution. We get stretched like taffy. Those who are brittle, like toffee, tend to snap from the pressures. Does that make toffee any less important and taffy is better? It depends upon who is eating it. If you're a reptilian, consuming vast quantities of fear and negativity, you might be alarmed when your food source starts to dry up and turn to higher frequencies. Right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Could you blame those who eat different food for doing what they do to survive? Of course not. Since it involves all of humanity, and you are a piece of that cosmic jigsaw puzzle, there is an allowance for a certain quantity of their food to escape unnoticed. They also "look the other way" when some of the food gets out of the trap. If you have all kinds of traps set, to hunt your own food, you don't go running after the one that escaped, right? No. You take the fresh food that's readily available and you consume it, while setting MORE traps for new food to arrive. If some of us have reached a "clever quotient" which informs us that expressions of negativity and fear are our downfall, and remaining in a vibration of love, compassion and humor keep us free from being RE captured, then noone is going to go chasing after those who have awakened. However, some who awaken become prominent and hit the radar as they attempt to sound an alarm for the rest. The trick is to follow your intuition and know when to get up on the soapbox, and when to stay OFF. At this time, the light has, and IS making sufficient inroads to allow for more "food" (humans) to escape. This is done with a cleverness beyond the scope of your imagination. Just know that an infinite array of plans are enacted at the perfect moment to achieve the optimum results. There is no question about the end result. It may not happen today or tomorrow, but it is GUARANTEED. Rest assured. In the meantime, it's essential for those on the ground to "act as if" the battle is raging, and that there's a chance it might not be won. That is also true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no deception involved here. There are different realities playing out, and if any of the players "let up", sit back and imagine the battle is over, many souls will slip through the cracks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ultimate goal is to "rescue" all who choose to be taken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why no efforts are in vain. There is nothing too small to do, if even a smile at a stranger. You have no idea what's happening at the energetic levels, or how large the field IS which is affected. You are non-local beings connected and filling "All That Is". Just because you don't know this does not invalidate the multidimensional aspect of your OneSelf. There is no way to say it in words which can capture the truth. We can only talk around it, and you must use your own images and imagination to bridge the gaps. It's best not to try and "know" all the details, as the plan is much larger than any can comprehend. Those who THINK they know are most often fooling themselves, as none are given the entire puzzle, only pieces of it. Personality likes to stop at a certain point, when it is beyond what others know, and lord it over the rest. This is human nature. That aspect will fall away in the higher realms. It doesn't exist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have any questions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Q.  Why is it said that 2007 will be an important year in terms of the shifts in energies and the changes?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a "tipping point" which is referred to as the 100th monkey effect. This is what will be played out during the remainder of 2007. The teeter totter that you like to use as an analogy, will tip in an instant once one atom crosses over into the higher realms. This is about humans who are living entities "crossing over" while alive. Most will be unaware that anything has changed, or is different because it might all "look the same" for the remainder of the year. But within, you will know you have tipped into the 4th and 5th dimensions, or "Fourth Density" as Lyara likes to call it. The difference to you internally will be dramatic. Outside, things might continue to appear similar, or the same. This is a limitation of the "ordinary" senses. You must learn how to tap into the 6th and 7th (and higher) senses. There are no limits. You place limits, numbers and fences around everything with dates and times and events. On the other side of your familiar frequencies, it doesn't work that way. You know this to be true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learn how to "live" in higher realms. You will just know intuitively when you're NOT there, as a certain discomfort will cause uneasiness without a reason. If you scan your emotions and intuitive senses, you will quickly know when lower frequencies are holding court. This going back and forth will fade as you develop the ability to remain at higher levels of being. This both takes practice, and it doesn’t. Like a child learning to ride a bicycle with training wheels, once the wheels are off, there's a shaky feeling for a short duration. This is what it feels like to enter into the 4th/5th realms. It's similar to taking off in a jet plane. As the plane taxis to gain speed, the ride is rougher, almost jarring. The moment the plane is in the air, you feel the wheels going UP and there's a gradual lifting or feeling of floating and ease. When you land in 3D again, expect there might be "landing jitters". Each time you take off and land in a lower density there is some turbulence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, those who fly frequently learn how to adjust. You will remain in between realms for 2007 and part of 2008. We hear you ask about 2008, so we will address that now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The year 2008 will usher in a plethora of shifts beyond comprehension. We see that first official contact is possible in that year. We see shifts to free energy, the fall of institutions that are part of old paradigms, and the creation of loving stewardship for the planet. It is the year of revolutions. Much depends upon what happens during 2007, but energetically it appears that the path this year is being cleared for the runway to take off the following year. Nothing is written in stone. We have our plans under way, and those will play themselves out on the game board. Those who "see" will begin to connect the dots and "know", from the higher realms WITHIN, what is happening. Allowance is key. From a centered space of allowance, love and truth, all things are possible. Each unique fragment is a crucial game piece. See with your heart and not with your eyes. This will clarify what's going on around you in the days, weeks and months to follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We sense you asking who we are. We are your Family. We share our "feeling" with you now, and you know who you are speaking to. There are no namesfor an infinite array of entities, so come up with a name you like!  We have a sense of humor, as you do. Keep it in the days to follow, and you'll be fine. Yes, you can call on us at any time now. Remember what was said about shifting between densities. At first it might seem "difficult", but it's not, as you are already here/there. You just haven't focused on the "here" part long enough. With a little time, you'll be living here and not "of" the world, while IN IT. That is all we wish to share with you today.

Many of his poems were written in Dorset dialect and – as in this extract from A-haulen o' the corn – used the local places, seasons and events as their inspiration and theme. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hosses, wi' the het an' lwoad,&lt;br /&gt;Did froth, an' zwang vrom zide to zide,&lt;br /&gt;A-gwaïn along the dousty road,&lt;br /&gt;An' seem'd as if they would a-died.&lt;br /&gt;An' wi' my collar all undone,&lt;br /&gt;An' neck a-burnen wi' the zun,&lt;br /&gt;I got, wi' work, an' doust, an' het,&lt;br /&gt;So dry at last, I coulden spet,&lt;br /&gt;A-haulen o' the corn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today was the first day of the Harvest from my vegetable garden. My dinner will include one yellow and two green zucchinis, with a nice "mess" of fresh Swiss Chard.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We forget the fruits of our labors DO reach fruition, literally and metaphorically. The garden is a metaphor for all those positive elements in our lives that we take time and care over. Not everyone can tend a real garden. However, it's possible to have a couple of used wine barrels from the local nursery to grow your own tomatoes or "fruit du jour". There is nothing like the rich, sweet and full flavor of a tomato grown from scratch, with all the care and love that one has to give. I love my plants dearly. I treat them like old friends or good relatives; I say "good", since not ALL relatives are of that variety! We do get some "bad apples" in the bunch, but not much longer. The days of duality and polarity are reaching their finale, and are likely to have some kind of climax which demonstrates the power of Love and Light over darkness, fear and death. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is a New Dispensation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my Universe, the power of All That Is wins the battles at the very last nanosecond, similar to my favorite James Bond movies. We reflect clever stories in which the bad guys are rather likeable and dark is more of a gray zone; but the "good guys" are so bright and full of life that one naturally sides with the power they snatch from nowhere to save the world, time after time. Would it be "fun" to have the bad guys destroy the world with their dastardly plans? I've always wondered, in films like The Hobbit, what would happen if the Dark Lord won. All that would be left are dark elements, hungry for battle and death, with no one to kill but each other. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;For eternity, it would be a "management problem" for the Dark Lord, who would be stuck running his "evil empire" and babysitting for a bunch of stupid, mindless cretins. None that were smart could be permitted to evolve, as those would always pose a threat. It seems like boredom and infighting would prevail in a wo
