It then behooves us to read the posts carefully to discern where each of us are coming from. Once we can make that kind of observation, we can then love at a distance, should we so choose (and it be our nature).

I just want to join the canon by saying that this quote brilliantly sums up so much of what I, and I suppose many others, feel:
Quote:
In that respect, I would like to think and thank that those who... no... that which leads us on wrong paths and spreads fear is but a challenge to rise above. Wash your bowl. I am also glad to see that those in this thread are 'faces' I see again and again and I am glad to see such activity here and be part of it. I do feel like our group of crazies is rather small but even if so, dedicated. Thanks. P.S.: By the way, isn't there a forum system for cross referencing threads? Like Pingbacks? This happens so often here. Last edited by Czymra; 12-27-2008 at 08:35 PM. Reason: Ehh... it's canon not cannon. Dude. |

I had a dream last night.....A man offered me a business card in an electronics store. I read it quickly. It was stained and wrinkled. His name was Edward ...his business name was the KNIGHTS OF MALTA inc. I threw the card back in his face. Everything we type....everything we reply...everything is being recorded. Maybe in the end they'll call us patriots...or terrorists?

I somewhat agree with Swanny, I think good people and bad people left, but I think that good people stayed, and very few if any bad people stayed. This is by far the smoothest this forum has ever run! It's very similar to the first two or three weeks in the very beginning.

My sense is that the dark side is playing "whack-a-mole".
Most are fast asleep watching TV and playing "I got the most the fastest". For those of us trying to do something about it and sounding the wake up call, well, we become glaringly obvious, and then it's whack a mole time. we notice it more because our heads stick up. |

"I got the most the fastest .. - and mines the shiniest" Their playing that over here too. coincidence? @ Egg If you think the forum feels a tad dark now, you really missed the 'party'. Your right Dan mate, a lot of people have left good and bad, but the majority who stayed are good people. Think what your feeling Egg is the ever growing presence of darkness in the world around us.. and not just neccesarily here at avalon (although quite a lot of it does get reported here daily, in these times.. i think its neccesary to stay somewhat informed even if the news is.. as per usual, bad news). But as for the people here.. ![]() |

hmmm, this Forum has smoothed out so much we hardly need mods any more for anything other then techy stuff.
Those members who are a problem tend to stand out and get lots of complaints from other members in a short period of time. After an intervention or two things change, ![]() Once folks recognize who the trouble maker is they tend to stay away from that poster. As for evil.. it's here if you look for it. In fact, whatever one focuses on they are likely to find it. This includes the full spectrum of emotions. Just a personal comment here.. I have no bad dreams. What I generally experience is a happy, joyful place within my heart. I go to sleep sensing into that happy place and often wake up feeling it as well. I call it source.

HI ALL
anybody recall the old adage? goes along the lines of! worry not about the splinter in thy neighbors eye. remove first the log in yours. Put your cyber paws up those who have heard of the DWELLER on the THRESHOLD Simplistically speaking it is a dark force that we all have, all of our negative emotions feed it plus each persons DWELLER feeds a universal or planetary DWELLER as well. When we work at changing ourselves spiritually "" let us say"", the DWELLER starves it in turn?. Works at changing our path "" it has to to survive"", that is why we are feeling the darkness it is created fear to change your path from light to dark. It matters not whether it be a n individual path or forums path same thing in essence. We improve our vibrations the DWELLER starves in TURN so does that Planetary or universal DWELLER This is a battle that may never end but the higher we rise our vibrations the less it becomes over time, individually each of us is the master of our realm but most are not aware of it the more aware we become the greater the battle so keep the end goal in mind n work towards that your end game not the DWELLER. that is about as simple as I can MAKE unlessyou want an ALICE BAILY rant Have fun Hoss E G M : ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Hello Everyone! I was really moved by all that I've read on this thread. Egg, I know that you've just joined, and I'd like to say I'm glad you're here. I came to Avalon in September, and for some reason I thought I was coming to a warm fuzzy place where everyone was trying to help one another in sharing "goodness". Boy was I surprised. I've been accused a time or three (in my lifetime before I woke up) of being gullible and seeing the world through rose colored glasses. Those glasses were shattered when I began reading for hours daily all of the things people wrote. But ya know what? I've learned from the darkness just as much as I've learned from the light. And, I have the option to take what I can use and reject the rest. So in that respect, my tunnel vision comes in as a handy tool. What I try to do is read the message and disregard the messenger if I sense that the particular messenger has "bad" intentions, and many did. Even some of the really weird posters gave links that were useful in my search for the truth. But, I will say this; I would never have posted anything during those first few months for fear of being shot on sight, lol. I feel really fortunate to be part of such a wonderful group of souls. So Egg, use what you can and don't allow the rest to get ya rattled. We are here for each other, good times and when the not-so-good times come at us. This is what collective energy does. We love our way through it.

@ Carol. I agree sleep should indeed be a beautiful restful place, but some times one is as busy at night as they are during the day.
Last night I spent time comforting a passed over relative who died almost a year to this day ago. That kept me 'busy' till 6am and they had been pointed towards the light and accepted its time to pass over. As for the bad dreams of late? I can say that although I do have super positivity, and the Egg keeps darkness at bay, some times I juts plain forget to shut the door behind me when I wander off into the night. |

I feel, I see, I hear, I read evil on this board and in the world as well, all the time. This is the place where it has been sent not to influence other higher dimension anymore.
This board is a mirror of the world. The way you react to it is important. Always keep the Universal Laws in heart and mind. Namaste, Steven |

The Awakening is often referred to as being as painful as childbirth...now you men and childless women just can't understand what that's like! We can discuss that some other time... When one starts to awaken they often see new doors opening in their
persective and after the initial estatic gush of mental freedom, quite often they see their "world " fall apart by the seams. It is at that time that one might need some help understanding things, so they go on a "truth" search encountering many truths and hype along the way. But nothing can stand in the way of their searching unless they become subdued by the darkness that dwells in the core of many "untruths". It is here where the Light Bringers can intervene, not by throwing stones or chanting strange formulas, but by getting directly in touch with this person, offering encouragement and a lovingly extended hand. As I read this thread, I realize that many of you may have found your "truth" and that many are still searching. There is no evil in the searching, and what one finds must be decided upon by its finder. Those who have found their "truth" and are convinced that it is the One Truth should give testimony to their Discovery. But remember, you did not get there, where you are, always happy and gay. It's an up-hill climb for us all. Greet the ones backsliding down that you meet as you climb upward with love and encouragement! You may incounter them going up again as you yourself may also backslide down a bit some day! As far as the News Informers are concerned, I feel that they are necessary for this forum. Their intention is not to prolipherate fear, but to keep our attention keen. It is so important to understand at what point of time we are in, and to help understand where things might go as the sleepers seek to survive, at all costs. We all, here, realize that there isn't much time left to prepare. The Muckrakers are needed, not to scare us but to keep us centered. Muckraker is a term associated with a group of American investigative reporters, novelists, and critics from the late 1800s -early 1900s, who investigated and exposed social issues such as conditions in slums and prisons, factories, insane asylums (as they were called at the time), sweatshops (forced labor, slavery), mines, child labor and unsanitary conditions in food processing plants. Muckrakers often wrote about impoverished people and took aim at the established institutions of society, sometimes in a sensationalist and tabloid manner. (See History of American newspapers for Muckrakers in the daily press). Muckrakers were often accused of being socialists or communists. In the early 1900s, muckrakers shed light on such issues by writing books and articles for popular magazines and newspapers such as Cosmopolitan, The Independent, and McClure's. The term muckraker now also applies to contemporary persons who follow in the tradition of that period, and now covers topics such as fraudulent claims by manufacturers of patent medicines, modern-day slavery, child prostitution, child pornography, etc. Although the term muckraking might appear to have a negative connotation to it, muckrakers have often served the public interest by uncovering crime, corruption, waste, fraud and abuse in both the public and private sectors. Theodore Roosevelt describes the muckrakers, 1906 "In Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" you may recall the description of the Man with the Muck-rake, the man who could look no way but downward, with the muck-rake in his hand; who was offered a celestial crown for his muck-rake, but who would neither look up nor regard the crown he was offered, but continued to rake to himself the filth of the floor. In "Pilgrim's Progress" the Man with the Muckrake is set forth as the example of him whose vision is fixed on carnal instead of on spiritual things. Yet he also typifies the man who in this life consistently refuses to see aught that is lofty, and fixes his eyes with solemn intentness only on that which is vile and debasing. Now, it is very necessary that we should not flinch from seeing what is vile and debasing. There is filth on the floor, and it must be scraped up with the muck-rake; and there are times and places where this service is the most needed of all the services that can be performed. But the man who never does anything else, who never thinks or speaks or writes, save of his feats with the muck-rake, speedily becomes, not a help to society, not an incitement to good, but one of the most potent forces for evil. There are, in the body politic, economic and social, many and grave evils, and there is urgent necessity for the sternest war upon them. There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil man whether politician or business man, every evil practice, whether in politics, in business, or in social life. I hail as a benefactor every writer or speaker, every man who, on the platform, or in book, magazine, or newspaper, with merciless severity makes such attack, provided always that he in his turn remembers that the attack is of use only if it is absolutely truthful. Source: The Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt, Condensed from the Original Edition, Supplemented by Letters, Speeches, and Other Writings, Wayne Andrews editor (New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1913, rep. 1958) pages 246-247...

I'm curious to know where the quote from Roosevelt's autobiography starts and where your comments end.... also, I'm not sure anyone can answer for the intention all the "news informers" on the forum. Boy, would that we could!
I haven't seen muckrakers mentioned in the thread before, so I'm having a bit of a problem tying this post in, WiNaDeYo. alys |

The qoute goes from the " to the resource info...sorry, forgot the ending ".
The term "muckraker" had not been used in the thread at all. It is one of my favorite words since I studied US History in high school. I pretty much cheered for them even then. Aren't the testimonies and whistleblowers, exposing hidden truths, that we find on this site "muckrakers" as well? And doesn't this thread mention "Avalon" in general? Aren't a lot of the things some posts here refer to as "evil" to be found, maybe not so much in the >Spirituality section, but in other sections? Maybe I am the one out of place here.... but I read this into the thread here. And I don't like the idea of someone pointing and snarling at another Avalon member, thinking he/she or his/her posts are evil. If you feel that there is a real threat, do something about it: contact the person in question or a Moderator. Or ignore it and get along with what you can deal with. Please don't whine. And as so many of you have said here on Avalon: Think positive! And remember that an unleashed tongue cuts more than a sword. Peace and Good Will! |

Blessings!!!
As we live in a world of duality-we are given choices of which side we want to stand.(On sooo many levels) Most of These multi-decisions are made as easily as breathing aire. The TRICK is to be aware as you make everyday decisions to elevate them and therefore ALL decisions get elevated awareness.(i.e.-This food or drink will nourish my body,This kindness I do is to increase love and goodwill,This book is to enlighten me and give me tools to share with others,etc....)It takes a split second for this awareness..... try it for a few days. You will be surprised how much it will increase your awareness in other areas!!! One of my favorite sayings: ![]() Even if one can't light a candle,they can look at a picture of one. In Bright Blessings!!! ![]() |

Good analogy mudra-it reminds me of an experience when i was 8 or 9; i was taking a photograph,felt sting,wasp hanging out of my arm i helped it to fly off tenderly helping it out of my arm-and it flew away-i went sick and giddy from the toxin but was soon fine-i have done the same since and shall continue to do so-i have no right to take another life no matter how big or small and no matter what it has done-it's performing some function in the grand scape of happenings;this applies always with everyone and their interaction with each other,however they may appear there will always be something to learn and feel sometimes in a sublime way and sometimes in a rather more mundane and obvious way.

Swanny, get off that fence son!
------------------------------------------------------- I had a dream last night.....A man offered me a business card in an electronics store. I read it quickly. It was stained and wrinkled. His name was Edward ...his business name was the KNIGHTS OF MALTA inc. I threw the card back in his face. Everything we type....everything we reply...everything is being recorded. Maybe in the end they'll call us patriots...or terrorists? --------------------------------------------------------------- this dream is very very interesting. VERY. If any of you rember my 'Reality Bomb' thread a while back, it sounds like a few of you are having very similar experiences. In that thread I shared a dream in which Ben Fulford's [camelot interviews, watch them] Illuminati badge kept appearing in my pocket.I kept throwing it away. It kept appearing. I found it quite funny, and wokeup feeling great. Deny the dark, just reject it, never get tricked into fear - you cannot possibly be harmed if you realise what you really are, and to do that you may need to read the books that inspired this forum in the first place, or Light Seeds. Otherwise you could be shooting terrified blanks in the dark at half-world low vibrating lumpen ghasts. Which is just what they want you to do! As for nightmares, ring a small bell above your head before you lay yer head down. Psychosomatic or not, it works. Be safe and lucky all. |

![]() nothing TO DO, only TO BE ... life after life (that i know of), i had always tried "to do" to create positive change, always was i the mole whacked on the head, and quite often, experienced worse than just bumps, bruises and headaches ... it wasn't until this life that i was guided to hit my own self on the head, thus my true connection with source was born, or rather, reborn ... re-membered ... now i understand it is more about BEing in the presence of who i really am, the love and light of just BEing that creates positive change ... i have come to know that "to do" remains illusion, 3d thinking ... "to be", is all there is ... to be, is true reality ... lower vibrational energies entice us to their dance floor, to engage in the dance of survival ... and that is what i used to do, it was the only way i knew, but now, i won't dance that way again, it only depletes the good energy within me, it is what i have permitted it to do in the past ... once connected to source, i also came to know where that dance floor was that i always danced on ... it was never outside of me but within me ... to know the pure essence of who we really are, to KNOW and to FEEL and to BE the divine beings of love and light that we are, is to also know the truth of what we can create, that we CAN create shifts for the positive, that we CAN create ... anything ... good question czymra, my answer is just that i know without any doubt how damn tired i got over the many lives i have lived, not tired of living, just tired of the desire to do good, to assist others, to make positive changes along the way ... and then, to consistantly allow lower vibrational energies to deplete me of my well intentions and more than not, snuff out the flame of life within me ... it is enough ... it was out of deep frustration that i hit my own self on the head in this life, knowing for certain there is a true, right and beneficial way to achieve positive change, was when i surrendered all that i thought was, to the true knowledge of all that really is ... when we know, feel and live love and light, no negative force can alter that of which is real, it can get to a certain ceiling, and then at that point, when love and light rises through the roof, the dark remains on the ground, looking up at the rising light, not a clue does it have how to follow, and thus, it remains behind, to dissolve, and disintegrate ... love and light prevails, always will ... so when i write upward and onward we go, i really do mean that there is a certain point where the lower density vibrations can not know to follow ... it is the threshold where illusion meets higher dimensions ... and who or what governs what energies are permitted to higher dimensions? we are the ones that say what goes and what stays ... we do this within our own selves ... upwards and onwards ... time to rise beyond the ceiling of the room we have been kept in for so long ... it is enough ... know love, feel love, be love ... and light ... |
