On The Eventual Awakening Of One That Is Not Yet Awake
Every two or three weeks, i awake in the middle of the night—4:10 a.m.—looking out our weak view windows, thinking of everything i have yet to give you. and there’s so much that i am uninterested in passing on. but of these i am clear: hope, finding the beautiful in an ordinary rain puddle, the restorative powers of song and guitar, believing in what you can create: as Miller said, finding & following your own criterion of truth. Knowing both seagulls and pigeons to be playful and fun. Slowing down more often than your familial genus may predetermine. getting away, getting off the grid, getting high atop a mountain others are too busy to climb. Be enamored with your thoughts — with your own genius in the family of history. and there is plenty to mention that we should not mention but of these i am clear: commit. Promise to yourself only those moments that actually matter for these are made of Love. Loving kindness mudra |

Brook:..however I had a huge problem with taking the energy you possess to a centralized spot to isolate from the world.
...They are nothing different then you or I..they are humans, seeking TRUTH and KNOWING. The issue of RZ communities is independent of seeking TRUTH and KNOWING. There are people that seek TRUTH and KNOWING within and outside the communities. The effort to create RZs is motivated by the desire to realize a vision of a better society in the world. While the energy to do that is substantial, it is probably much less than the total expended in the present chaotic turmoil that you see in the existing society. Everything goes in cycles, and it is important to recognize the end of a cycle and the starting of another one. By this is meant that there comes a time when the proper response is to focus on creating something new "from scratch" as opposed to patching the old. It may be sad to recognize the existing society/civilization is coming to an end, but that is the truth. The challenge to create a new one in a better image is substantial, but it needs to be done, just as it was done more than 200 years ago in North America, when pioneers create new communities which eventually became the USA. It is because of the substantial energy and challenge to build a new society that people of like mind must come together to take this effort that is the basis for the creation of RZs. These are the nucleus of what will hopefully be the new centers, or what you may call cities for lack of a better term, for the new world society, one based on TRUTH and KNOWING of the self as a spiritual being. A society integrating science and spirituality. This in no way takes away anything from anyone that feels that their purpose is to remain in the existing cities to help out. Neither perspective excludes the value of the other. There is plenty of work to go around for all. |

Brook:The wisdom of life, cosmology, to ontology. People are supposed to learn the wisdom of life in general, Laozi theorizes, and he brings forward philosophical ideas on politics, sociology, and interpersonal relationships. Yet the focus is not on the creation of civilization, but rather on self-cultivation. Laozi's thoughts are basically social philosophy and theories based on Dao, but he is not interested in creating a new and ideal society, because that is not the way of the Dao.
The focus is on self-cultivation because a society can only be as evolved as the individuals of that society; the society can only be a reflection of its parts, which is the individual. Laozi did not exclude the existence or the value of society, but clearly the important part is the development of the individual. If the individuals are evolved, the society automatically becomes ideal. If we are on a path to evolve back to the source, then clearly the value of learning to co-operate and work together as a group is very important, because when everyone is merged back to the source, the "breathing room" might just get a bit tighter compare to what we are use to. This is why the challenge, when we evolve to the next level, is to learn to work together.. and it is also the present challenge for like-minded individuals at our present level. |

Mudra quote: "Imagine there was a city where people would eat organic food everyday, where children would be raised with a good sense of spiriituality and wisdom , where you could work less and have more time to share with your relatives and friends, where there was no criminality and people from the youngest to the oldest could live harmoniously with each other in respect of mother earth and all living things .. where would you go ?"
This is a wonderful vision Mudra. It is worthwhile contemplating how one might achieve it. Are there any cities in the world that meet this vision? I cannot think of any. Have others set out to create utopia on earth before? I would guess in our history, many have done so. Why hasn't it worked? Perhaps the problem is that here, in this lower level of consciousness we are trapped in, the human ego, it is not possible to create a utopia like the one you've described. You can't solve a problem from the same level of consciousness that created the problem in the first place. The collective consciousness on planet earth right now is focused on the separate self. It's all about comparisons to others, and it results in conflict. The fruit of the ego consciousness is conflict and suffering. Will this change if we say, no ego in this city, just love? I don't think so. How would the laws in this land be enforced? If we say only organic food and no crime, how would we enforce that? If someone brings in non-organic food what do you do? Do you ban them? If someone steals from another what do you do? Do you throw them out of their house? What about their families? We must change the inner to change the outer. Throughout our recorded history, empires have come and gone, political philosophies, economic philosophies, academic philosophies, many with the ultimate goal to create the perfect state to erase the human suffering and create the utopia on earth. They have all failed. It doesn't matter how many rules we make, or contracts we create or idealistic pledges we made, there will never be a utopian society manifest here until we deal with the cause and core of the problem in the first place. I suggest the cause and core is first and foremost, our own ego illusions. And second, the fact that we have wolves in sheeps clothing in this world who will come in and destroy, or do their best to destroy, any idealistic group or society that is born. There are all sorts of energies playing out at finer vibrations that result in the suffering that happens here. Even at Avalon / Camelot, a lot of conflict erupts, even with the interviewers and their witnesses. Until we learn how to protect ourselves from negative energies and influences, including the influence of our own egos, I do not believe a utopic society is possible. First change the inner, then the outer will reflect the change... What do you think? |

This thread is about the title....Knowing and Freedom
With that being said...it is about "self-cultivation"..about tapping into unlimited knowing , about Freedom and responsibility...about letting go of the ego driven machine. It is not about radiant zones..as radiant zones will create their own social consciousness, and structure....I bless your radiant zones..may they be built on Knowing and Freedom...may they not be built for the sole purpose of running from the fear of the PTB...may they not be built based on a whistleblower telling you you must run because the SHTF. If you are building them thinking they will be the only future of mankind....that is because someone has made you think that....that will not be the case. The evolution of mankind is going to happen all over the word...for ALL mankind..not just those chosen ones in radiant zones. This thread is about KNOWING, and FREEDOM....and with freedom comes responsibility. Freedom and responsibility : When a person gives their allegiance to an external belief structure, they may go in one of several directions. First, they often will become very rigid in their allegiance to the organization or structure to which they have committed. This type of conformity can be seen through various forms of fundamentalism -- religious, political, psychological systems, etc. Second, they may present as being very committed to a belief systems or organization, but they feel very comfortable bending the rules where it does fit their desires. It becomes easy to bend the rules because they are not really committed to the underlying values system. However, when a person is deeply committed to authentic moral or value principles, they are less willing to act in ways which contradict these principles. The principles are authentic. Another way avoid responsibility can occur through the belief that one is powerless. There can be many factors which are seen to render a person powerless. A person can perceive themselves as a victim of their environment, of various supernatural or spiritual forces, their unconscious, or a victim of their biology/genes. While an existential approach will recognize that all of these factors may influence a person, none of them render a person powerless or completely control them. That being said...I bring up Henry David Thoreau...who moved away from the social structure, and consciousness to find the genius to write: Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler. I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestioned ability of a man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor. Moving away from large clusters of social structure in large populated cities with the high frequency of ego based conscious...is not a bad thing at all...as proven by people like Thoreau...you are better able to tap into the knowing of all that is..and create genius..the power that resides in everyone...removed from EGO driven fear It is about tapping into the unlimited knowing of the "I AM"...all that is. Because with that KNOWING, you will have the radiance all over the world..not just in chosen spots. This evolution is for all mankind..and anybody that has made you believe that you must separate for that purpose is lying. Will you be better able to experience that in a radiant zone?...probably...if the social consciousness of that radiant zone allows it. And therein lies the delima....who is to say that the builders of the radiant zones and it's members are not creating the illusion of utopia. When Utopia can be had all over the world when the evolution is born. Whose to say you are not building them on a premise that isolation is the only answer.;when you remove yourself from the zone to find a quite different and Radiant world? And that the social structures of the radiant zones are built on the sole premise of KNOWING and FREEDOM? I truly bless your radiant zones..may they be built on Knowing and Freedom....and not social structure devised on anything less. The worst predictions of those who say they "know" have nothing to do with Ultimate Reality. Embrace, instead, the desires of your heart, and make those your experience.

Raising Social Consciousness
Let's take this beautiful animal ![]() ![]() For much longer then should have ever been allowed..this creature was hunted for nothing other then it's ivory tusks..the bodies of the animals left to be ravaged by nearby predators ...not for food, not for anything other then the greed of the ivory trader. Social consciousness was raised by the worldwide community to bring to light to the moralistic injustice of such a thing....lowering the population of such an animal. Raising that social consciousness was not driven by greed, or ego...it was the right thing to do. It was driven by KNOWING...and in bringing to light such injustice...raised the social consciousness of the atrocity. This is the avenue that needs to be driven..Raising Social Consciousness. Removing the ego from the equation was what made it right. And with that Freedom for the animal..comes the responsibility to monitor the situation...as it still goes on today..however much less..but it does exist. So the moral of the story: Raising Social consciousness by KNOWING it is wrong...by removing the EGO...brings FREEDOM..and RESPONSIBILITY See how it goes hand in hand?

Although through the human history many communities, societies and empires have come to fall we are witness at the same time that new communities, societies and empires have been built.
Life is immortal and can't do anything else than go on. Quote:
The radiant zones have'nt started with Camelot or Avalon . They are part of the changes already taking place in the society at large . According to GENt ( global ecovillage network) 93 ecovillages have already been set up in Europe . And many more worldwide. The Global Ecovillage Network is a global confederation of people and communities that meet and share their ideas, exchange technologies, develop cultural and educational exchanges, directories and newsletters, and are dedicated to restoring the land and living "sustainable plus" lives by putting more back into the environment than we take out. Network members include large networks like Sarvodaya (11,000 sustainable villages in Sri Lanka); EcoYoff and Colufifa (350 villages in Senegal); the Ladakh project on the Tibetian plateau; ecotowns like Auroville in South India, the Federation of Damanhur in Italy and Nimbin in Australia; small rural ecovillages like Gaia Asociación in Argentina and Huehuecoyotl, Mexico; urban rejuvenation projects like Los Angeles EcoVillage and Christiania in Copenhagen; permaculture design sites such as Crystal Waters, Australia, Cochabamba, Bolivia and Barus, Brazil; and educational centres such as Findhorn in Scotland, Centre for Alternative Technology in Wales, Earthlands in Massachusetts, and many more. GEN's main aim is to support and encourage the evolution of sustainable settlements across the world. http://gen.ecovillage.org/about/index.html The movement of establishing new ways of life has already begun and has proven functional . Those of Avalon aiming at the construction of radiant zones are just part of an already existing transformation that is taking place in the society at large and worldwide. Welcome this . We are loving the world awake ..It's taking place .We are making the quantum leap and we are all participants in what is taking place . Time has come to let go of our old pair of shoes and step into the new ones. We could'nt envision perfection if perfection was'nt already within each of us . Utopia does'nt exist in the sense that I don't personnally see the sky as the limit. Dreams are part of the human nature .With our dreams we can move mountains.

Ultimate Reality and War
several months ago..I ran across someone who wrote something and claimed..all of our problems are because of the "Jews"...I got angry (EGO)...then I made a statement in tears and anger...on a thread called "who am I"..this part I want to share... Who am I? I'm a mother of three sons, and one grandchild. I'm a musician, I'm the one you pass at the market when shopping...I cry at sad movies, and happy endings. I'm the one you honk at at the traffic light because I'm changing the radio station and not paying attention to the light. I'm the one who can't stand to see the starving children in deprived countries. I'm the one who stood by and watched the twin towers fall in disbelief. I'm the one who watched the United States go to war for the sake of oil and power. I'm the one who woke up to the fact that it is all an illusion...one created to use us against each other. I'm the one who want's to wake up and find that the illusion is over..that mankind stood up and said ...we are through with your lies...we want only the truth and nothing else will be acceptable. We will stop working your war machine...we want nothing to do with your power agendas. we want to see the starvation end, and the suffering ended. We want the children to be nothing but loved. We hold our future dear to us and will not accept your blaintent lies. we don't care about your boarders...we care about our neighbors...we send them love. We bless them with kindness and giving. We will rebuild our future with strength of compassion. Hate is not a word we use in our vocabulary. Giving is our key to success. Then and only then will the tears I shed today turn tears of joy. Then mankind can collect the grand prize....the universal prize of humanity shedding it's mask of animal behavior.....and we will be able to join the ranks of Sharing universal love of humanity and creation throughout the universe. Why do wars start: This is grossly oversimplified, but it's basically not much different than robbery. That other country has something we want, let's take it away from them. The "something" can be land, resources, people (to convert to a different religion, for work, etc). The "something" can also be power, if the war-starting country perceives "the other guys" to be powerful, and decides to take them out before they get too powerful. Take a big dose of greed, add in a few dashes of fear, and season with a disregard for human life, and you get the recipe for war. This world was crated complete..one large mass...not separated by countries...boarders...We..the ego driven society made boarders..we made countries...created and formed by WAR... Sad really..the separation...the isolation...unity for what? A Country? Is that who we are? Are we a country...I am an American? No I'm just me..living in a nation..that was created from the struggle of war based on Freedom that is slowly being taken away. Created by EGO and society structure..and above all...Power over other nations That is the Ultimate Reality of War social Consciousness needs to rise above the injustice..above the EGO based decisions that are laid out, and take back our power of Knowing the truth Last edited by BROOK; 08-09-2009 at 11:14 PM. |

Mudra,
Thanks for sharing the links on the GEN, interesting stuff. I'm definitely all for sustainable communities being the way of the future, and we have to start somewhere right? Brook, I like your last post but want to share an understanding about the ego, that I'm sure we already know, but is always good to have a reminder for us all The ego is not something we can just talk about and it's gone, it's very much there until we summit the mountain by surrendering the last illusion. This is the spiritual path, and it is quite a journey. As long as we seek any definition for who we are, we're feeding the separate sense of identity, the illusions of separation, we're feeding the ego. The I AM, is beyond definitions, it is a state of Being in the Now. Many people on the spiritual path exchange their materialistic ego for a spiritual one. There is really no difference in the big scheme of things. Either we are in Oneness with all life, or we are the ego. Whether we define ourselves as the mother, the victim, the champion, the awakened one, or whatnot, it's all ego. The key I think, is to cease to see self as separate, the focus is no longer on who I am, because I AM that I AM and I AM Being here Now. "I'm a mother of three sons, and one grandchild. I'm a musician, I'm the one you pass at the market when shopping...I cry at sad movies, and happy endings. I'm the one you honk at at the traffic light because I'm changing the radio station and not paying attention to the light. I'm the one who can't stand to see the starving children in deprived countries. I'm the one who stood by and watched the twin towers fall in disbelief. I'm the one who watched the United States go to war for the sake of oil and power. " All of the below is a definition of who you are that is based on illusion. Your true Self is well beyond these definitions and in order to be reborn into that identity, you will need to surrender who you think you are for who you really are. You must give all in order to receive all. It's akin to giving up some pocket change for a million dollars, but how fervently we here hold on to the pocket change out of fear we will lose, rather than knowing the million dollars is the reward for giving what we thought we had. Not pointing fingers, I'm working on overcoming ego here myself and it's an ongoing journey. I just think it's a good thing to discuss the traps of ego, especially in a thread in part dedicated to the ego. |

And you are right...I did write it in anger...and it was clouded in EGO...that is why I added it...and stated it was from EGO....
Then I highlighted "it's an illusion...one created to use us against each other." We are so much more..and it cannot be expressed in words..but feeling and emotion...The true master..the one that knows "I AM" does not speak it in words...they cannot..it is much bigger then words...it is UNLIMITED KNOWING...the I AM..and it resides in EVERYONE...waiting to be tapped. and not one person out there is without it Last edited by BROOK; 08-10-2009 at 12:06 AM. |

EGO has been tossed around quite a bit as if it is something your not supposed to have!!!
My two cents... Our EGO is a necessary program to have in order to function in 3D. You will never get rid of it you just reprogram it!!! We are in charge of what is programmed into us and self-awareness is a new program of ego. Once the ego is understood-reprogrammed then Harmony and Balance is the foundation of being a creator being which requires the use of ego as part of consciousness. Each of us as a fragment of the Whole containing the potential Whole within each fragment uses ego as part of the program to create with. You'll spend the rest of your waking days trying to remove something that is a part of you naturally... it was just hijacked without us knowing about it when we were born... a synthetic ego I guess could even be descriptive like a fake ID. ![]() personal responsibility is understood through cause/effect of ones actions, learning knowledge develops self-awareness, and putting into action the 4 laws develops the creator in us all. ![]() Last edited by Christo888; 08-10-2009 at 12:35 AM. |

Ego
Is it really you? I am born...I am the son of the Prince of Wales...I'm in line to be the next king of England. Everything around me is rich and posh. I want for nothing. My freedom to go in the public is infringed by cameras and reporters...I was raised to lead a Country. Everything around me reflects who I am...it was my destiny to be a King. I am born...I am the son of a poor man in South Central Los Angeles....my brother is a gang member...I don't know how to read and write properly...it was not a priority...I'm going to grow up to be a gang member.....it was my destiny to be a gang member. These are reflections of Social Consciousness..being termed the identity... It is from others that you get the idea of who you are. They shape your center. This center is false, because you carry your real center. That is nobody's business. Nobody shapes it. You come with it. You are born with it. So you have two centers. One center you come with, which is given by existence itself. That is the self. And the other center, which is created by the society, is the ego. It is a false thing - and it is a very great trick. Through the ego the society is controlling you. You have to behave in a certain way, because only then does the society appreciate you. You have to walk in a certain way; you have to laugh in a certain way; you have to follow certain manners, a morality, a code. Only then will the society appreciate you, and if it doesn't, you ego will be shaken. And when the ego is shaken, you don't know where you are, who you are. The others have given you the idea. That idea is the ego. Try to understand it as deeply as possible, because this has to be thrown. And unless you throw it you will never be able to attain to the self. Because you are addicted to the center, you cannot move, and you cannot look at the self. And remember, there is going to be an interim period, an interval, when the ego will be shattered, when you will not know who you are, when you will not know where you are going, when all boundaries will melt. You will simply be confused, a chaos. Because of this chaos, you are afraid to lose the ego. But it has to be so. One has to pass through the chaos before one attains to the real center. And if you are daring, the period will be small. We all have egos...it's getting to the center that counts..to get to the center..to attain the unlimited knowing...or you can forever stay where you believe you must stay with the ego....but it is not the real you...and my ego is not the real me....I am much more..and so are all of you The ego is plastic..not real.. going to the real center..the self..the true self, everything changes, everything settles again. But now this settling is not done by the society. Now everything becomes a cosmos, not a chaos; a new order arises. But this is no longer the order of the society - it is the very order of existence itself. It is what Buddha calls Dhamma, Lao Tzu calls Tao, Heraclitus calls Logos , it is unlimited KNOWING. It is not man-made. It is the VERY order of existence itself. Then everything is suddenly beautiful again, and for the first time really beautiful. The difference is just like the difference between a real flower and a plastic or paper flower. The ego is a plastic flower - dead. It just looks like a flower, it is not a flower. You cannot really call it a flower. Even linguistically to call it a flower is wrong, because a flower is something which flowers. And this plastic thing is just a thing, not a flowering. It is dead. There is no life in it. You have a flowering center within. That's why Hindus call it a lotus - it is a flowering. They call it the one-thousand-petaled-lotus. One thousand means infinite petals. And it goes on flowering, it never stops, it never dies. This is not to say..forget who you are..or your current life experience....but to attain and use the unlimited knowledge of who you really are Last edited by BROOK; 08-10-2009 at 05:39 PM. |

That was a perfect video to add to this thread Mudra
He is talking about unlimited KNOWING, and stilling the EGO..he also brings into the end that this is what is happening now in social consciousness....Great find! I have several of his books and videos..but the hardest thing for me to follow was stilling the Ego..as I'm sure it is for many..because it won't let go...it wants a life of it's own....it tells you it is YOU.. And when you finally release it..the "NOW" he speaks of IS unlimited knowing....the I AM..all that is ..that gives you the power to not only experience the unlimited knowing..but to embrace life fully...and create fully..with no outside distractions from the EGO With that power...in Social consciousness ....the world will change..you will have peace on earth..and everlasting FREEDOM Thank you Mudra for that wonderful enlightening video..it was perfect the timing Last edited by BROOK; 08-10-2009 at 04:02 PM. |

THE WHISTLEBLOWER AND KNOWING
I watched one of the many videos of a whistleblower here on Avalon...and it started out with a man describing that he knew of our ultimate origin ....the creation of US..then he said..this is his perception He carried on to describe many levels of dimension ....then he said..."and on this level is where the ego is created..." At that point I realized that the series of videos is exactly what he said...it was his Perception ...and I watched further..and I saw his ego describing heaven and hell....the ET phenomena ..through great research he explained all the past Gods and the reason for the pyramids...their basis of origin and purpose. It was fascinating ...and because I have never done any of this research myself...it seemed very plausible....but was it the "TRUTH" How much of that information came from "Knowing"..and how much came from the ego based brain..with the research to cloud the perception? Herein lies another delima : First..where is the proof?...is it based on conjecture? From past research and theory? could the truth be clouded by such theory and research? I believe he did tap into a "knowing"...he seemed very convinced of that fact..and seemed very genuine...but how much of the information was filtered through the brain..and processed by the EGO....DELIMA...what is the truth? Is this ultimate truth? Is it "his" truth..filtered by ego? This is where unlimited "knowing" comes in handy...because it is not filtered by ego..it simply is the Truth. The worst predictions of those who say they "know" have nothing to do with Ultimate Reality. Last edited by BROOK; 08-11-2009 at 04:14 AM. |

when we get angry, go outside, take a few breaths and look to the stars. Why? When we look to the stars we realise how small we are, and how silly clinging to a single idea or difference is. Every idea, all perspectives, every conversation, is just one dot blinking in the sky. We stand so high and mighty, isolated and trapped, yet the blinking lights in the sky remind us that it’s all so meaningless. That the little voice in our head whispering HOW important this idea is, is just that, really little.
By looking to the stars we begin feeling in our bodies the boundlessness of life. We feel the unlimited reality. The stars anchor us to reality, and help us expand. We loosen the grip on our ideas. We begin seeing that differences are just as true, simply from another point of view. With ideas and differences, there’s plenty of space for all. Men are disturbed not by things but by the way they take them. Loving kindness mudra |

The NWO..Illuminati..the PTB...and EGO
How we have let these powers effect our Ego....through problem reaction solution, as David Icke says..they create these scenarios ...then take control of our ego through fear..rage...anger. You may be enlightened to their game..but you still are controlled by the rage and anger and fear. So just because you know of their nefarious plans to control you...you have made yourself susceptible to their ultimate control. And they push you through the river of deception and evil...created by greed and EGO....how do you get to the rivers shore? How do you pull yourself out of the river and into the light..or out of the matrix as David Icke calls it? First through Knowing....release the ego...ie; anger, fear, rage....and attain Knowing. Then you raise social consciousness....awareness..not through conspiracy...but truth...Knowing...without ego involvement..the right thing to do...as in the elephant story...no ego involvement...not conspiracy...just TRUTH Not through conspiracy...because that is a theory...truth only And of course....freedom and responsibility will follow..and we all know that means WORK...work to achieve that freedom. We can cast about theories all day long..but until the WORK is done to bring out the REAL TRUTH....it is all just talk. With freedom comes Responsibility And responsibility...to do the work to maintain and monitor the situation...remove the control of the ego....the PTB..the fear..the deception. Knowing , Freedom, Responsibility Last edited by BROOK; 08-11-2009 at 04:16 AM. |

Knowing Freedom
To know freedom..one must understand bondage. Because how active will you be coming from complacency?....Sitting in front of your computer..looking for the next new best thread. This is not to say you are not trying to do your part...however Have you lost your home due to the economy? Lost your job? Do you have it in you to stand up and say "I have had enough of the tyranny"? With Freedom comes responsibility; Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility." -- Sigmund Freud Are you waiting for the next best man, or political figure to come along and make another dead promise? This man was not a political figure...he made himself one ![]() He took responsibility...and told the truth. He worked hard to bring justice and truth...and paid with his life. Now here is a twist....America made him the national hero for "Americas great struggle for racial equality" They made him a political figure..however..toward the end of his struggle did you know he was opposed to the republican and the democratic parties? did you know he spoke out against capitalism? then he was shot....hmmm...an America hero? Or just a hero of truth and knowing... He did not let fear of the PTB get in the way...he marched to raise social consciousness , So everybody would know of the injustice that disturbed his whole race. He took responsibility to know freedom Could your ego be in fear of judgement...to tell the truth..from knowing..not conspiracy but the truth... and raise social consciousness?

The power to choose Freedom and Utopia
"Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom." We have heard that many times. What is also the price of freedom is the toleration of imperfections. If everything that is wrong with the world becomes a reason to turn more power over to some political savior, then freedom is going to erode while we are mindlessly repeating the catchwords of the hour, whether "change," "universal health care" or "social justice." What we strive for , a "utopia" society structure with perfection...how to create perfection? Let's go back to square one. The universe was not made to our specifications. Nor were human beings. So there is nothing surprising in the fact that we are dissatisfied with many things at many times. The big question is whether we are prepared to follow any politician who claims to be able to "solve" our "problem." If we are, then there will be a never-ending series of "solutions," each causing new problems calling for still more "solutions." Therein lies the never-ending quest, costing ever increasing amounts of the taxpayers' money and ever greater losses of your freedom to live your own life as you see fit, rather than as presumptuous elites dictate, driven by power and greed ..don't forget where the power elite play their game..Ultimately, our choice is to give up Utopian quests or give up our freedom. This has been recognized for centuries by some, but many others have not yet faced that reality, even today. If you think government should "do something" about anything that ticks you off, or anything you want and don't have, then you have made your choice between Utopia and freedom. You have given your power to choose away to the very people who have taken it away. Food for thought...the illusive utopia does exist..where does it exist? Think harder...it the mind of every one...in the KNOWING it does exist...but for who..and where..and when is the choice we must decide |

"The universe is so vast and we are so small, and in the blink of an eye all is gone, I guess when it comes down to it we really have no control over anything..."
Is this a true statement? I think not...we are much larger then we even realized.... We are born of the all that is..the great I AM..we are infinite beings..weather you choose to believe this or not, it is so. We are much larger that anything imaginable...we are light...we are energy....we are part of everything around us. We came here to create everything we can imagine. If we imagine small, then we create small. If we imagine big then we create big. Quantum physics, sacred geometry, Masaru Emoto: messages from water...have shown you ...you are very large indeed. We Have power to create infinite So where have we gotten the idea that we are small, and have no control? could it be Religion? Some religion has taught us that if we do wrong..we will go to hell. Some teach that we reincarnate..to experience...then live out past karma...of things we have experienced. Some teach of "rites" and ritual...ridged behavior Most religions have a prophet...who have a knowing of the I AM..the Dhamma...the Tao, The Lord of all Lords. But the writings...and the structure...the dogma...the social structure especially have been used to control...some even through political advancement...some through creating boarders..and where do you draw the line and say this is the TRUTH How many religious institutions have become fat and rich from the FAITH of the masses. How many hold the secrets and choose not to let you KNOW. The delima... What to believe...most of these Prophets if not all..were in touch with the I AM...choosing one prophet..Jesus Christ said.... "He who would know everything, but fails to know himself misses the knowledge of everything " there is a message from every great prophet from the I AM...and it says....KNOWING....unlimited knowing....know you are too the sons and daughters of GOD...know you can be that knowing...and believe that life is eternal..that you are infinite beings. Know that you have the power to create..to expand..to be a universe if you so choose...to experience unconditional love of all that is. An know that in the coming years the vale of the 3D is lifting...and you will shed the ego self..and it will be the battle of Armageddon to shed that ego...the Antichrist! Know you will finally see the truth these religions and the PTB did not want you to see...that you have the power to be immortal..and free. The power of Light everlasting...and create Heaven on Earth...through what? KNOWING of the creator of all that IS Don't choose to "seek knowing" don't choose to say "I hope to know more"...or "I seek more knowing"...for the law of attraction kicks in and you will be forever "wanting", and "seeking"....just simply say to your self one very simple thing and it will reveal itself..."I KNOW" Shed the ego..not the life experience..for from that comes experience...but do not be driven by the ego..the Antichrist, anymore....be that of Knowing. For with KNOWING comes FREEDOM....are you ready to take that step? Are you ready to become so large as a star? ![]() Last edited by BROOK; 08-11-2009 at 10:24 PM. |
