"ONLY LOVE PREVAILS" ...."I've loved you for a thousand years; I'll love you for a thousand more....."


As we are in the winter of our lives, I dedicate this to Andrew, Dr. John J.C. Jr. and Gary W., MD, (who has gone on before us). My love and admiration is unfathomable for each of you..........and what you have brought into this world.....so profoundly to me.
The metaphors are rich and provocative; we're in them now. This world is indeed disappearing, and the richest eternal world awaits us!
The intensity, as was in each of the three of us, is in yellow!
In my heart forever.........

Slowly the truth is loading
I'm weighted down with love
Snow lying deep and even
Strung out and dreaming of
Night falling on the city
Quite something to behold
Don't it just look so pretty
This disappearing world

We're threading hope like fire

Down through the desperate blood
Down through the trailing wire
Into the leafless wood

Night falling on the city
Quite something to behold
Don't it just look so pretty
This disappearing world
This disappearing world


I'll be sticking right there with it
I'll be by y
our side
Sailing like a silver bullet
Hit 'em 'tween the eyes
Through the smoke and rising water
Cross the great divide
Baby till it all feels right

Night falling on the city
Sparkling red and gold
Don't it just look so pretty
This disappearing world
This
disappearing world
This disappearing world
This disappearing world


TECHNOLOGY..........

In “Conversations with God”, by Neale Donald Walsch, there is a warning I think of. I refer to it as the Atlantis passage, and I've quoted it a few times before." As I have said, this isn't the first time your civilization has been at this brink,"

God tells Walsch. "I want to repeat this, because it is vital that you hear this. Once before on your planet, the technology you developed was far greater than your ability to use it responsibly. You are approaching the same point in human history again. It is vitally important that you understand this. Your present technology is threatening to outstrip your ability to use it wisely. Your society is on the verge of becoming a product of your technology rather than your technology being a product of your society. When a society becomes a product of its own technology, it destroys itself."

"The Changing Times" by Stephen Hairfield, PhD



Following a lengthy trip to Israel in 1999, my already eclectic spiritual belief system was both deeply jarred...and enhanced.  The notion of energy and quantum physics has expanded my world view exponentially.  I will write more on this as the holiday season evolves...I am still integrating the learning in this year.  A wonderful whirl of great fortune allowed me to attend the seminar / advanced workshop of Raymon Grace...whose work in nearly 60 countries is quite astounding.  I was both astounded and moved by his earthiness, his authenticity, and his humility. (To say nothing of his successful  outcomes!) I will blog on Raymon later. (Until then, his website links are on the left column of this page.)

Raymon referred us to the work of Stephen Hairfiled, PhD...and this article from his website serves to illuminate his thinking.

The Sacred Journey of Life
"Path of Consciousness"
This seminar also based on ancient language of the Creative Primordial forces of Masculine and Feminine forces ever present and at work in the universe that we have come to know. These stories talk of the desire of union as the Principle of Creation “Let there be Light”. It also has its basis in the idea of “We are made in It’s image”. It is the Journey of Christ Consciousness, that all is life and in perfect order. The art of Love, Compassion, and Reverence with all of life and walking as though a living prayer!


 Consciousness

• Loving without conditions

• Reverence of Life

• Compassion

• Masculine & Feminine Forces

• Let there be Light”

• Reflections of Life Journey of Consciousness

• The Sacred Journey – Revelations


The Seven Essene Mirrors of Relationship
This seminars purpose is to teach the reflections of life that are ever present before us. Of which we do not notice because of the very first mirror of life. These Mirrors of Relationship are based on a philosophy written by the Ancients thousands of years ago. To this day they are taught in most of the Eastern Monasteries as a natural part of the process of understanding yourself. Through the journey of the reflections one establishes a better and more purposeful relationship with others and life. This seminar shows not only what they are, it teaches how to understand them and most importantly how to use them in relationship to your self. The mirrors are listed below:
• Reflections of the Moment
• Reflections of Judgment
• Reflections of Loss
• Your Most Forgotten Love
• Father/Mother/Creator
• Dark Night of the Soul
• Compassion and Perfection of All Things

The Principles of Karma
A seminar based on the Oriental and Buddhist philosophies of the path of the Monk. All Eastern traditions follow the principles of Newton’s third law of cause and effect, all be it older than the mathematical proof of the law. This is what Christ intended with “Nothing is above the Law” and “Whatever ye mete is Returned to you ten fold”. There are twelve principles of karma of which we, in this part of the world, misunderstand and pay little or no heed. We plow along in life with very little mindfulness of what we set in motion. We discuss the principles and offer ideas on how to balance the effects of our cause, the idea of the principle of Alpha and the Omega.
• Natural Universal Law “The First Cause”

• The Buddhist Philosophy of Cause

• Karma - The Twelve Principles

• Becoming the First Cause

• Clearing The Principles

• The Moment – Creation in Motion

• Renewal of Purpose

Return To Innocence
A seminar based in the ancient traditions of innocence of being and the true journey of consciousness available to all that seek this path of higher understanding. It is the journey of Christ Consciousness, “…even the least among you that believe in me shall do these things…” The truth of the hidden meaning beneath this statement from ancient traditions. It is a learning of how to balance the primordial forces to operate in union, understanding the heaviness of life and its impact on physical form, dross. The principles of how life accumulates by one drop at a time until we overflow. The ancients have warned us since the beginning of time on which is the best path of life. We have mistaken ancient metaphor and allegory, overlooking symbolism, and have walked a path of material form. We have forgotten our first Love.

Gratitude

I live in Gratitude...
 

For all that I have given
  and for all that I have received.
For the beauty in my life
  and for the sorrows I have known.
For the challenges I've faced
  and for just how far I've come.
For my courage and my gifts
  and for the wisdom I've acquired.
For the journey and experience
  and for the kindness on the way.
For my dreams and desires
  and for the trust that I have learned.
For the joy and inspiration
  and for my purpose, newly found.
For the miracles unfolding
  and for what tomorrow holds.
For all the love I've known
  and for that I've yet to give.
For my friends, my home, and family
  and for the time to find myself.
For abundance and simplicity
  and for the grace and opportunity.
For the chance to make a difference
  and for the faith to know I will.

GRATITUDE....THANKSGIVING!



"What Was Told....That"
      by Rumi





Gratitude.jpg

What was said to the rose that made it open 
     was said to me here in my chest. 

What was told the cypress that made it 
     strong and straight, 
what was whispered to the jasmine so it is what it is, 
whatever made sugarcane sweet, 
whatever was said to the inhabitants of the 
     town of Chigil in 
Turkestan, 





     that makes them so handsome, 
whatever lets the pomegranate flower blush 
      like a human face, 

that is being said to me now. 



     I blush. 

Whatever put eloquence in 
language, 




     that's happening here.



The great warehouse doors open; I fill with gratitude,




     chewing a piece of sugarcane, 




     in love with the one to whom every that belongs!
