    The big guys like Monsanto who even manage to get legislation to serve their agenda
    also have their finger on the pulse of the masses using statisticians.
    Not only are forums being monitored, but also Twitter, Facebook, etc., so by rerunning old stories they can then test the response of the masses and test the resistance level.
    Individuals don't stand a chance. Gotta form groups, become more spiritual, be informed at all levels.

    Both..individuals formed into groups. However the internal situation in the collective must be of aware individuation prior to groups. In this way the collective maintains control of the first move and remains out of the state of being reactive.

    The key being that aware individuation as an egoless or near egoless state. This is the grease in the wheels of collective advancement.

    If the herd instinct of the untamed animal intrudes, it slips into being reactive and the corralling is already in place via that state of being itself. Reactive status is automatically invoked if the group has ego as the ruling force among them.

    Egoless states mean that consensus can be easily achieved....which is the point that ego does not allow one to see. The ego is the set of blinders that blocks the path.

    For all attempts at advancement eventually hit a wall of some sort (merely a case of needing to realize a given approached step required in order to complete the path), and the path forward is blocked by the blinders on the self provided by the current limitation, a limitation... which is lack of awareness... tied to an origin of such ...within ego.

    This has been my wish for the longest time, and I have to say, at no point in my life have I felt closer to it's realization than now, seeing and feeling the energy generated by us Villagers.
    All earlier group efforts failed as someone took hold of the collective and tried to stir things away from that egoless state. But that probably happened precisely because I myself still had tons of unexplored ego residue, and hence had manifested such a group on the screen of my life, so that I might learn.
    And having learnt that lesson, I finally met Carmody and all the other Villagers here.


    The owner of the Finca La Flor who I had lunch with yesterday had a stack of hats right there on the dining table, all high quality felt hats, different colors...obviously a hat collector, I meant to ask her if they were presents from people who knew how much she valued hats.

    Ulli, I think the difference is with our little group, the occurrence was spontaneous, rather than contrived in any way. We gathered, and lo and behold, it was the bus stop for the ascension bus. Whoulda thunk it?

    Here and now I believe that today marks the beginning of a three day water fast. I have had some heartburn issues and have always been able to get long lasting healing of the injured esophageal tissues by just not eating for three days. Not drinking coffee will be the thing I miss most. I have a few organic coffees that I drink and they are so very smooth and delicious. I drink them black with little, 1 teaspoon, to no sugar in them. My tubes will love me for this.

    @Carmody: Beautiful written post about egoless/low ego requirement for higher societal function. Your favorite hat may be low ego, but is way too snazzy for egoless.

    "Allowance"...with wisdom and action

    Egoless motion in motion...group consensus...allowance and understanding for energy to further the creation as far as it is meant to BE : )

    ...and imho we are right in the middle of "the sparks will fly" to realization as never ever before in time as we know it!

    You are so right, PurpleLama!
    Even the thought of the 6 o'clock ascension bus crossed my mind.
    Figuratively speaking.
    And this is what I'm talking about...none of us are scared to agree or disagree with another.
    It means that no self image can get in the way and make us feel stupid, or inferior,
    just as disagreement can make some egos feel superior.
    When stalking self importance the view of where we all are going becomes much clearer.

    I'll stay on the look out for Sufi whirling dervishes and savoir faire dudes incognito wearing felt fedoras beyond the aethers.

    Here and now the storm has passed. Woke up to a beautiful cold morning on the mountain. I love the smell and feel of the air after a rain in the mornings.

    Running errands today....I'm not going into the city today....no masses today for me LOL.

    Hope you are doing well Modwiz.... and all Villagers.

    Sorry, just could not resist. If you just want the whirling dervishes, go towards the end of the video. At 7:30 minutes.
    But the conversations are worth watching too, in fact try watching the whole movie...all 11 parts of it.

    Final quote from the movie:

    "You have now found the conditions in which the desire of your heart can become the reality of your being.
    Stay here until you acquire a force in you that nothing can destroy.
    Then you will need to go back into life and there you will measure yourself constantly
    with forces which will show you your place."

    That quote reminds me of the time I spent 'reading' and 're-reading' the Silence Thread https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...Silence-Thread. It provided a safe place of refuge amidst the noise and egos...peaceful energy radiated from that thread. Then I found Here and Now...the same calm, peaceful energy shared in a Village life setting.

    Modwiz, the 3 day water fast may heal more than your body. Just started a 10 day juice fast today knowing it will lead to clarity of body, mind and spirit. btw, chia seeds help with heartburn...eat a handfull and wait 5 to 10 minutes before drinking water...it will absorb a lot of stomach acid.

    Stomach acid is good and necessary and I want it there doing the jobs it's supposed to do. For what ever reason the lining of my esophagus has worn down and needs a few days to replace itself and then normal stomach functions can resume. Citrus juice only burns skin that has a break in it, there is nothing inherently wrong with the acidity of the juice. Thanks for the recommendation. Real, old fashion popcorn with nothing on it works the same way

    I've' done this fast a few times before.

    Wow! Your statement shows you are well along the path already. To realize "I don't know what anything means" is one of the primary steps to comprehension. It opens a door to truth. Truth cannot enter a closed mind.

    And greetings!

    That quote reminds me of the time I spent 'reading' and 're-reading' the Silence Thread https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...Silence-Thread. It provided a safe place of refuge amidst the noise and egos...peaceful energy radiated from that thread. Then I found Here and Now...the same calm, peaceful energy shared in a Village life setting.

    Modwiz, the 3 day water fast may heal more than your body. Just started a 10 day juice fast today knowing it will lead to clarity of body, mind and spirit. btw, chia seeds help with heartburn...eat a handfull and wait 5 to 10 minutes before drinking water...it will absorb a lot of stomach acid.
    Stomach acid is good and necessary and I want it there doing the jobs it's supposed to do. For what ever reason the lining of my esophagus has worn down and needs a few days to replace itself and then normal stomach functions can resume. Citrus juice only burns skin that has a break in it, there is nothing inherently wrong with the acidity of the juice. Thanks for the recommendation. Real, old fashion popcorn with nothing on it works the same way

    I've' done this fast a few times before.
    Sorry to hear about your heartburn Mod, maybe your liverfunction is over stretching its self, a few slices of sweet red apple may do the trick for you. (extinguish your burn) It absorbs acids really fast and well, helps to keep it down and prevent your throat from aching.

    (usually does the trick for me when i am on MMS and my liver has to toss out all the toxins released from it).

    Hope this is a usefull tip, if not it was worth a try right?.
