What we may be here to do

[RunningDeer]

My question is 'now what do we do with it.'

Personal Perception

The tortoise and the hare: it's critical to develop inner timing for it all to unfold in it's proper sequence with the greater picture. That's an honorable challenge. Patience with self and allowance for everyone to be where they are in the experiential process. We each are responsible to keep digging for the blind spots that hold us captive from our Light. And our shared caring for a better world through expression of ideas is a physical representation of Love and Co-creation in action.

A Wish

My wish is for everyone to see the hidden likeness rather than the differences in us All. Sometimes the human element is lost when the one eclipses another’s idea with clever factoids and parallel talk.

An Observation and Opinion

Project Avalon is a mini-model of the World. We loose ground when there’s disintegration rather than integration. We all benefit when each is cognizant of mutual respect for differences, and stays open to the larger message of the posts. It begins there. If it’s not a safe place to share, we lose the sensitive ones with a creative twist to the puzzle. I keep coming back to the point that lets get beyond the ego stuff. We all problem solve differently, that’s what makes it richer environment and increase the possibilities.

An Idea

One suggestion is brain storm on a real world situation. This exchange at Project Avalon is a spring board to the greater community on the web and beyond the computer. Guests may bring these ideas out to other forums, or families or small communities. There’s no right or wrong way or even if it bombs, the action steps alone raise consciousness and create unifying energies. So only success comes from any action, no matter how small.

An Outcome

In the beginning, it serves as a working example of how to process and share. Other side benefits increase like growth of non-judgement, creativity, and how ideas trigger solutions. This focus naturally flows from the individual to the Unity of the Whole. So in essence we demonstrate how to be teachers and students exchanging ideas on all levels. All while individual essence deepens and uniqueness is preserved as well.

Peace,

This was one fantastic post.

I came to Avalon because I thought I could be helpful to others such that i might find a true, reason to live. Unfortunately (though I did not know this at the time) I was perhaps the sickest one here. So in truth, I came to Avalon to save my own ass. BUT, somehow the love here, pulled my head out of that orifice just enough to see some actually light of day.

Now I come to Avalon to be in "right, positive relationship" with others.

The guidelines you outlined above are perfect for a clown like me. I think I will print this and paste it on my wall.

Again, thank you WhiteCrowBlackDeer, Love to you, Chester

I am honored, Chester.... And thank you. :luv:
Love,
Paula

I don't act - I "be."


Love it, Chester....I find it so much easier to simply be who I am than remember which face I put before individuals...or even myself!

btw, love your new avatar, justonehuggybear.



- Rocky_Shorz - it's your big ol Joe Biden Grin that makes them explode...

Rocky...that's my very own big sh!t-eating grin on my face...most people smile back, but there are some who do a slow burn...



- AwakeInADream -I now see spirituality as our last and only hope...
"The Only Way to Win, is Not To Fight", I can't remember where I heard that phrase, it's just come into my head...

I believe it was our dear Paula, WhiteCrowBlackDeer, who spoke that particular pearl of wisdom.


(I'm still messing up quotes after all this time....duh! and it took three tries to get this right...okay, at least close. May not be pretty, but I think I got it all in.)

Thank you, Belle. I do like that one, too. Though, it's not mine.

My philosophy and I call it Warrior's Wisdom: "The Strong walk away for there is no need to prove a thing."

It sounded like something you would say...sorry for the misquote. :hug:

I do like your Warrior's Wisdom better tho'...seems to fit with what we are here to do...be strong in ourselves, who we are, our spirituality...that's all we need do...just 'be' quoting justoneman...and quoting AwakeInADream who sees 'spirituality as our last and only hope...'.

How's that for trying to bring things back to topic? :)

[Rocky_Shorz]

remember once your Spirituality connects to God, it can be very powerful...

I was in a thread about 9/11 and everyone was pointing at Daddy Bush...

a Hurricane rolling towards the Gulf suddenly veered and roared straight at Maine...

I do my best not to get upset with anyone now...

[AwakeInADream]

Hey Rocky_Shorz! When you refer to your visions as 'just a dream' with a wink;) are you being serious? Do you not think they are much more than that?

I have come to find that there are 3 types of dream in my experience:

1. Regular dreams that everyone has.

2. Lucid dreams that most people have.

And 3. Full on spiritual visions, where you know that it is not a dream, and you really have been transported to a higher place.

I have been having more and more of these spiritual dreams lately, and I know that others have too. I always get scared if I start to see things in
meditation and so they quickly fade, that's why I assume they are taking it easy on me by coming too me in dreams.
The best one I ever had was over a year ago when before I went to sleep I asked God what his nature was and how did the Holy Trinity fit in with this.
I didn't expect any results from this, but the dream that followed was the most beautiful and profound experience of my life, because I was given the answer.

First off I saw a man in a white robe with white hair and a long white beard, I think he must have been my guide but I only see him once a year if I'm lucky,
I don't even know his name. In answer to my question he projected his thoughts into my mind so that they became my own.
There were no words at all, only higher telepathy, but in that moment I knew for sure exactly who God was, and understood completely what the Trinity meant.
He also showed me a bright light, that was a representation God as 3 in 1 (In no way do I believe that I saw the real face of God, but even the image was beyond words),
and I could have stayed in that light, with that knowing, for all of eternity, completely fulfilled, and satisfied.

As you can imagine, when I woke up back into this world, I was completely depressed.
The knowledge of God I was given, mind to mind, was lost completely, and only the memory of the feeling remained.
You see, I can describe the dream as I am doing now, but I really can't put into words that knowledge I had of God whilst I was there.
I do have hope however, that I may one day again experience this level of consciousness, and that is all now I strive to do.

It's been more than a year now, and I haven't been able to repeat the experience, or see my guide. Maybe the knowledge has been planted in me,
and I just have to wait for it to filter through. I don't know, but I am of the mind now, that even if the only reason we are here at all, is simply to know God.
Then it is absolutely worth it!

So I know for sure what I want to experience again. Knowledge of God.
I hope everyone on the planet gets to experience this, and I think that they will in time.

I feel a little selfish saying, 'I am here only to gain knowledge of God'.
So I'll add to that also we are here to help each other to gain this simple knowledge of God, and let none be left behind.

[RunningDeer]

How's that for trying to bring things back to topic? :)
You task master, you.... ha!

"What we may be here to do?" The short answer, for me, is just Be. It’s inside. Part of my path was outside to get to the inside.

What am I here to do? Does there have to be one answer? I ask myself this because it depends from which perspective. My personal code uses descriptives such as, to “Be” the kindness, love, tolerance, respect, understanding, forgiveness for self and others, etc.

In an earlier version of me, six-ish and on, listened and continues to listen to Nature’s whispers and all her kingdoms. (and interacts, some might call it imagination, I did not, that’s why I could and sometimes can.) Today, I’d describe it as “Be” within/among All.

An the early teen version, got inspiration from a philosophy book by Krishnamurti. He expressed things that I mostly didn’t understand. But I still read because it moved me sometimes to peace and silence, or I felt guidance. It only took awareness, though I didn’t have a need for a vocabulary word. Nor did I have a reason to ask why am I here? I just allowed the sensations to come up and then leave. I knew they’d come back.

Those small discoveries were big. They served me in ways that I would not have expected. Now, I’ve got the advantage of an older version. I see the paths I’ve chosen, with some mighty challenging ones. They were done one step at a time. And I remained open to spontaneity and synchronicity.

Do I even need to ask why am I here? The short answer is just Be. It’s all inside.

I’m a combination of all the versions of the many lives, in just this one life time alone. (plus other lives) So the question “What am I here to do?” becomes “What we may be here to do?”. The answer for ‘this’ moment is: “I” continues on the experience, with spontaneity and synchronicity as my wingmen.

And...there’s a distant but distinct inner knowing, I conjoins with the “We”.

Peace,
WhiteCrowBlackDeer

No, no task master here...just was concerned that I might have derailed the thread and wanted to get back to topic before someone else noticed... :whistle:

When it gets right down to it....I am who I am and I do what I do because that's who I am and what I do. :yes4:

I should have put a big, big smilie because it was only meant as a joke. Here replace Ha! with http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/smileys/big-smile2-smiley.gif (http://emoticoner.com).

So, now, I'm re-reading your post: I see lots and lots of smilies in it. I'm guessing I've been too literal and you are joking, too. So I'll add one more great big http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/smileys/big-smile2-smiley.gif (http://emoticoner.com) & a :hug:

What we may be here to do?

Well here is one thing...

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.
--St Francis.



I was listentening to a blog talk radio session where this came up as an example of the third density challenge we face - polarity. There it is folks, its all in there. St Francis clearly made his choice!

the wink meant much more, I helped solved over 170 missing childrens cases through dreams and the little lights surround me if I am traveling through time or dimensions...

one child I found crying at her body so I took her hand and brought her to heaven...

I woke to a 0.0 earthquake in LA felt from Washington State to Mexico City

when I received my first message from God, I spent time in heaven birds chirping sounded incredible, their songs like a choir...

as I was waking, I heard the song "let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me..." it was like listening to a million Angels singing, absolutely amazing, as I woke, a cheap little clock radio beside me was playing the song I was hearing, but it was the voice of one single child... I instantly knew it was a Indigo child, gifted beyond this dimension...

I understand what you mean by special...

when I walked in to talk to God with my Spirit guide, everyone and I mean thousands were prostrated on the ground...

I'm in a dream so wasn't afraid, as I approached his throne, stopped and looked up to him, my Spirit Guide continued and walked up beside him and turned around...

her crown appeared and it shocked me almost to waking, but I was there for a reason...


I'm cocky even in my dreams, so much so that God busted out laughing a music in itself... everyone on the ground looked up never having heard it before...

I am who I am too... ;)

[AwakeInADream]

Wow! I didn't know that! Amazing!:)
I had a feeling you were special, I noticed one of your posts came in at 1:11 UK time the other day.;)

I know what you mean about being cocky in dreams, I felt I should have been a little more humble and fearful before God too, even if it was only a reflection of his glorious image in my case.
I worry sometimes that this is the reason I haven't been invited back into this presence. In fact I worry that my hope of a return there is misplaced entirely.

Maybe you can help me with this, as I will surely help others as you help me... How can I repeat this experience?

I've tried remembering it before sleep to see if it would re-trigger the experience, with no luck.

And being that I only see the white robed man once a year(if I'm lucky), does this suggest that he isn't my permanent guide?

Maybe I need to create a conscious link with my guide first?

God knows I'll be his servant if he'll only instruct me... Am I being cheeky to ask God for more?

[Rocky_Shorz]

I'm 6'4 and only came up to his knee... who you are describing sounds more like Jesus...

Nirvana is on the edge of Heaven, if you go to the gates, you will find Jesus there.

the light and the way has more meaning than most understand

when my sister was dying I went to the gates and asked for him to heal her...

her disease, stopped and she had a full recovery...

maybe you didn't ask anything of him, or he asked something of you that hasn't been completed.

just sharing what you have here online is all he would ever ask...

understanding there is a beyond is important for everyone right now

he is robed and has white hair and a beard...

IMHO I'm sure who ever you met would appreciate you sharing the Love they gave you to others.
There's plenty more where that came from.

I suppose this is where you decide have you got enough to make you happy at this present time?

Zoe

[AwakeInADream]

Thank's Kiforall!:) I guess I am happy right now, happier than I reasonably should be. While my external circumstances are less than perfect, inside I am rejoicing.

And Thank's Rocky!:) I hope you're right about it being Jesus, it would make sense, and also make me happier still. I guess it's easy to mistake the Son for the Father (who I have grossly underestimated).
I've always felt a little guilty for not recognizing Christ, I sought but did not find. Although I did think I found God, it appears now that it was simply a case of mistaken identity and I found Christ after all.
It's strange that I should be so happy that I didn't find God, but all is in order now, and I can continue taking my baby steps. Knowing that the best is yet to come....

Oh! And Rocky, when I mentioned your post that came in yesterday at 1:11 UK time, the synchronicities get better. I just before went back to check it and found it was post 242, and I immediately saw that the time was also 2:42.
111="He Is One God"
242="El Roi" = "The God of My Vision".
You've got to admit that is a strange 'coincidence'...

EDIT: And you're right, I didn't ask anything of him, I never do ask for myself (only to know him), perhaps I should...

[Anchor]

Who is to say that what one sees as a representation of God (or any other archetypal imagery) in a dream will be similar to another person's dreams?

I think what we see in dreams could easily be constructed of learned images and ancient archetypal images that may have sunk to deep down within the deepest roots of the tree of our minds. So deep that we may not even know where these images come from, almost as if they were never there in the first place. So deep that they are almost at the point within which those individual roots mine into that whole in which we are one forest.

God as 3 in 1? Yes, but only here. The true nature of God is absolute unification of the "face" we see here. I see the 3 facets of God as masculine, feminine, and magic (or spirit, or whatever), indeed had a vision of it as a youngster. When we have unified the masculine and feminine in the heart, and then also the high heart, magic becomes sensible to us. Then we see the face of God, and we discover that we are looking in a mirror. When we fully achieve unity consciousness, then we move beyond the mirror, to become God. Yes, the feeling is hard to keep hold of, but that is the purpose of reality - to distract us, and make us work to return to our true natures. It is work because of the psychological, spiritual and experiential hobbles that we acquire as we move through life on this plane.

Planted knowledge - a seed - all that will come contained within the nub or hub that is the seed. This blessing allows us to receive potential full knowing, which we access as needed, as the seed draws nutrients from the soil. Don't worry if you are not conscious of the knowing, be assured that it is working inside you through your higher consciousness. There is no hurrying it, it will become conscious when the time is right. I have been seeded myself, and some of the knowing has become fruit, while other knowing is yet to blossom.

[AwakeInADream]

There is no hurrying it, it will become conscious when the time is right. I have been seeded myself, and some of the knowing has become fruit, while other knowing is yet to blossom.

Excellent! So it never left you then?

That's great! All I have to do is wait....

I have spoken to someone on another forum who has had the exact same experience too, it amazes me that the triune element and the light and telepathy are all the same.
I take this as objective proof of the reality of my experience, more than subjective. It really strengthens my faith. God bless Project Avalon! And all those who sail in her!

Of course all those I have spoken to have a slightly different take on it, but then we are all unique individuals and this is the beauty of life.

My ideology is new now, a happy blend of all the advice and proofs I have been given.:)

What a great place!

Cheers Music!:)

The reason he Laughed was I told him I didn't believe he was God and asked for the winning Lotto numbers for the next days drawings...

told you I can be cocky... ;)

he gave me 2 numbers, he wanted to keep me humble... (you can pull up archive and see 6 and 17 both came up...) (666 111 777 ring any bells? He gave me those numbers and in dreams to follow she explained it was the numbers to answer the Riddle of the Beast... The Key of David...)

18719

he said after delivering his message, the world would know it came from him...


400 years before Islam began a message was written in Revelations to the Church of Sardis, a special city to Persians, but it was written for the Church of Saudis, John didn't recognize Saudis, as in Saudi Arabia where Mecca is located... I just fixed a type-O for understanding...

I delivered it on my Birthday...

and waited...

and waited...

Christmas Day still nothing...


Baked ham with all the trimmings with my family...

turned on the news to see if the world had changed...

nothing...


suddenly a news report rolled across the Screen...

Massive Earthquake in Iran, the country the message was directed towards... I looked at the city name and thought of what the Holy Spirit said as we were leaving...

I asked, so just like that, Wham Bamm thank ya Ma'am they will know it was from God?

she smiled and said yes David, just like that...

City in Ruins, 38,000 dead...


in Bam Iran...


I looked at the time of the quake, converted it to local time...

it was at the same moment, III days later...


and that was just the beginning...

I hope everyone on the planet gets to experience this, and I think that they will in time.

I feel a little selfish saying, 'I am here only to gain knowledge of God'.
So I'll add to that also we are here to help each other to gain this simple knowledge of God, and let none be left behind.

the wink meant much more, I helped solved over 170 missing childrens cases through dreams and the little lights surround me if I am traveling through time or dimensions...

one child I found crying at her body so I took her hand and brought her to heaven...

I woke to a 0.0 earthquake in LA felt from Washington State to Mexico City

when I received my first message from God, I spent time in heaven birds chirping sounded incredible, their songs like a choir...

as I was waking, I heard the song "let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me..." it was like listening to a million Angels singing, absolutely amazing, as I woke, a cheap little clock radio beside me was playing the song I was hearing, but it was the voice of one single child... I instantly knew it was a Indigo child, gifted beyond this dimension...

I understand what you mean by special...

when I walked in to talk to God with my Spirit guide, everyone and I mean thousands were prostrated on the ground...

I'm in a dream so wasn't afraid, as I approached his throne, stopped and looked up to him, my Spirit Guide continued and walked up beside him and turned around...

her crown appeared and it shocked me almost to waking, but I was there for a reason...


I'm cocky even in my dreams, so much so that God busted out laughing a music in itself... everyone on the ground looked up never having heard it before...

I am who I am too... ;)

Hi Rocky_Shorz - it is extremely inspiring to me that you are opening up about yourself and that you are sharing special aspects of your own personal "what you are here to do" and I just wanted to say, thank you, for what you have done and do and thank you for sharing about it. Love to You, Chester

walks in and hears the crickets and chuckles...

was it something I said?


How about grasshoppers?

No, just being mindful of the (re)balance in time spent here and there.

Who is to say that what one sees as a representation of God (or any other archetypal imagery) in a dream will be similar to another person's dreams?

I think what we see in dreams could easily be constructed of learned images and ancient archetypal images that may have sunk to deep down within the deepest roots of the tree of our minds. So deep that we may not even know where these images come from, almost as if they were never there in the first place. So deep that they are almost at the point within which those individual roots mine into that whole in which we are one forest.

The reason he Laughed was I told him I didn't believe he was God and asked for the winning Lotto numbers for the next days drawings...

told you I can be cocky... ;)

he gave me 2 numbers, he wanted to keep me humble... (you can pull up archive and see 6 and 17 both came up...) (666 111 777 ring any bells? He gave me those numbers and in dreams to follow she explained it was the numbers to answer the Riddle of the Beast... The Key of David...)

18719

he said after delivering his message, the world would know it came from him...


400 years before Islam began a message was written in Revelations to the Church of Sardis, a special city to Persians, but it was written for the Church of Saudis, John didn't recognize Saudis, as in Saudi Arabia where Mecca is located... I just fixed a type-O for understanding...

I delivered it on my Birthday...

and waited...

and waited...

Christmas Day still nothing...


Baked ham with all the trimmings with my family...

turned on the news to see if the world had changed...

nothing...


suddenly a news report rolled across the Screen...

Massive Earthquake in Iran, the country the message was directed towards... I looked at the city name and thought of what the Holy Spirit said as we were leaving...

I asked, so just like that, Wham Bamm thank ya Ma'am they will know it was from God?

she smiled and said yes David, just like that...

City in Ruins, 38,000 dead...


in Bam Iran...


I looked at the time of the quake, converted it to local time...

it was at the same moment, III days later...


and that was just the beginning...

Incredible experience - this sort of stuff is truly mind blowing... wouldn't it be nice if one day all the synchronicity experiences we encounter did not also link with tragedies? My goal is to one day see that day. Cheers, justoneman

I edited an error I accidentally made when I typed in my poster name... I had erroneously type justoneoman (almost justone omen)... funny how that stuff goes? hey?

[Belle]

No chuckles here, Rocky...well, maybe a little giggling to myself...not about your post, but rather how utterly fun it all is...and love hearing of God's sense of humor.

A few years ago as my son and I were talking, my husband was watching the news on tv...when he left the room to fix himself a snack, my son pointed to the politician being interviewed and said, "I bet anything his prayer thread is paper thin." Prayer thread!!!!!! What the heck was he talking about? Keep in mind that my son is far from being a child and will be turning 40 this December.

We went into the kitchen to talk as my husband came back into the room...Bob (my dh) does not want to hear anything about spirituality, having been abused by priests at the summer camp he attended as a child.

Anyway, I asked Mike what was he talking about...prayer thread. He told me that in his early twenties he had a death experience...something he had never mentioned before. He told me how after leaving his body, he swam in the 'blackness of his negativity' and struggled to get through it to the light...once there, he could hear amazing music, tight vibrato's and harmonies coming from everyone and everything around him...the light filling every space...and the most wonderful feeling/knowing of being enfolded in unconditional love.

He found himself in a "room" with lots of drawers and all sizes of "threads" in all different colors rising from the 'floor' into various drawers...so he asked his guide what they were. "Those are prayer threads", he was told.

'So what is that one there...the big fat blue one,' Mike asked, and was told that "that belongs to a grandmother connecting on behalf of her grandson. The fatter the thread, the greater the connection."

There is so much more to his experience...but it comes out in dribs and drabs as circumstances bring them to mind. Like most who come back, he said he was asked if he wanted to stay or return...that there was more for him to do in physical form, but he was more than welcome to stay if that was his choice. When expressing his desire to return, he was told that he had overcome the darkness of his negativity, anger and fear, and that experience would not repeat when it was his time as long as he allowed the God light to shine through him, and his connection to stay strong...

In an instant he was returned to his body, a thick film covering his eyes that needed to be washed away.

He told me that someday, when he was led to, he would tell me about the throne room.

So, laugh at your experience? Not me.

[Rocky_Shorz]

you are all really great, I wouldn't have opened up and shared without your support...

Justoneman, you are an amazing person, I know you are hurting from situations beyond your control, but you keep your love and laughter sharing it with everyone...

Belle, I knew you were special, and your connection to one that has crossed explains it...

people that "know" there is a beyond have a special light that will never go out, and radiate hope...

WhiteCrow, the pain you have healed from has made you shine like a star, and radiating light to those all around you.

Awake in a Dream, or awake from a dream, you understand now what most never will, it feels great doesn't it...

Ulli, you are a very special friend, and though we've never met, we have, keep your smile...

Beren my friend, the only I have met from Avalon, we have many battles ahead, and I couldn't ask for a stronger heart to stand by me...

we make a Motley Crew, but we've all gathered for a reason...

now if we could just figure out what it is...

MKUltra and PTB caught me blindsided, so I needed to share this now in case I disappear in a few weeks...

Hello, (a newbie here) My personal take on the inquiry of this thread just to share and so you all get to start knowing me as I become active in this wonderful forum.
~
On this end, I have finally discovered what my personal missions are here in this lifetime. One of which is big with me and that is Remembering who I am! Next; I know that a large part of my role is to assist Mother Earth as well as myself through the ascension process, and yes to me it is a process and not the instant I am going to blast off into pure energy and bang I am gone, or at least not yet. My lessons have been that and is not limited into trusting myself and trusting in the journey at large. I also feel that I am a messenger to what some might refer to as 'Source' or Source Energy as I sometimes refer to the concept of the creator. :) Basically, I feel that 'Source' experiences via us. :)

[Caren]

Hi everyone - fantastic thread (thank you all).
I too had a very intense and life changing experience similar to AwakeInADream's. I first saw the light and then found myself immersed in it. I heard God's unmistakable voice - believe me you would know it is him. The love one experiences in his presence is indescribable; although we humans try there really are no adequate words.
I too was a little down upon awakening and I remember not wanting to leave when it was time but knew I
had to.
God spoke of Peace for the world - his exact words being "There will be Peace" just as Rocky mentions.

I had a second experience during an OOB. I was chatting, praying.. asking God to help me as I was deeply grieving at the time. I left my body sitting on the chair and flew up through the roof of the building and into the universe. I could see the millions and millions of stars 360. I felt an arm around my waist - his arm 'holding me up' although I could not see him. He spoke of the immense joy awaiting us when we leave our earth school. He didn't use the words earth school but that is what he meant. It was profound.
Much love to all,
Caren

[Rocky_Shorz]

thanks WhiteCrow,

I lived in Boston for a while and loved it, Bush had his ear caught from a fish hook just a few hundred yards from our fishing boat one day...


I think I'm his lucky charm... ;)

[music]

There is no hurrying it, it will become conscious when the time is right. I have been seeded myself, and some of the knowing has become fruit, while other knowing is yet to blossom.

Excellent! So it never left you then?

That's great! All I have to do is wait....

I have spoken to someone on another forum who has had the exact same experience too, it amazes me that the triune element and the light and telepathy are all the same.
I take this as objective proof of the reality of my experience, more than subjective. It really strengthens my faith. God bless Project Avalon! And all those who sail in her!

Of course all those I have spoken to have a slightly different take on it, but then we are all unique individuals and this is the beauty of life.

My ideology is new now, a happy blend of all the advice and proofs I have been given.:)

What a great place!

Cheers Music!:)

Diversity is perhaps the greatest gift of physical reality, and yes, it's beautiful to see how each of us experiences the absolute in our own unique way.

Celebrate the difference, but also find the similarity - we can talk to each other more easily that way :)

[Chester]

Yo Rocky_Shorz. Consider not bringing into your sphere these elements from which then you might "trigger" or at least be "in tune with" the "rocky" reflective events.

The only reason I suggest this is because I have been doing this of late and have found a wonderful correlation between this intentional action and the degree of relative peace I experience in my parts of the universe.

Just a tip from justoneman... but, hey... what do I know anyway?

Love to You All, Chester (and Enjoy the Day)

[Rocky_Shorz]

I am here in a conspiracy forum, stumbling into painful truths are a given...

you know a lot...

it was the news, the election, along with many other factors, not just one event...

I try to run from anything related to 9/11 truths.

every time it comes up it triggers a reaction...

imagine if Romney gets in and every time Pinocchio lies it sets me off...

we could be in big trouble since truths don't cross his lips very often... ;)

I might need to retire to an island with no internet or television for a few years for everyone's good if he wins...

laughter through the tears - we can accomplish that also :)

What am I here to do???
Dunno

and have come to understand that at the right moment I will

In the mean time I will continue to help by loving this world into a new be-ing

hurry back everyone... we've got work to do...

[Joe Akulis]

So,let's see here... We've got warnings that we could get some nasty CMEs. I'm seeing some weird stuff going on in Louisiana about sinkholes and meteors and explosions and New Madrid fault lines, that could corroborate the visions of the Mississippi river turning into the Gulf of Mississippi. We got people suspicious that the seizmic data from Yellowstone is being hushed up, that conjures images of Woody Harrelson eating pickles and gearing up for a big wipeout. We got...You Know Who...saying once again that the grand overthrow of the US phony gubmint/cabal types is about to kick off again. (Bill's hat never ended up on his menu, by the way, so that one gets more of a grain of salt than any of the others.) But, I'd say the potential for some interestingness is definitely here... Anyone else got some good ones to add? Earthquakes that wreck nuke plants maybe? A big comet that trashes the northern hemisphere?

I've only dipped into one of Dolores Cannon's books, so don't know much about everything she's been learning. Does anyone know if there are any indications in anything of hers about major population reductions on Earth?

Maybe we should start a pool. Which one will hit us first?
--Waiting and watching.

[AwakeInADream]

There is this:



Comet 'shining 15 times brighter than moon' will fly by our planet in 2013

They are one of the most spectacular views a human could hope to see - and next year a comet which could outshine the moon is due to fly by the Earth.
Comet ISON is visiting the inner solar system and is set to put on spectacular views for the Northern Hemisphere across November and December as it heads towards the sun.
It may prove to be brighter than any comet of the last century - visible even in broad daylight - and this may end up being its one and only trip to the solar system, as its trajectory may see it plunge into the sun in a fiery death.

anyone have his #?

His email is: psionic.course@gmail.com

Also his Facebook:

I'm not sure if he is too busy to answer messages, but I think that he knows alot. After all, he's an ET contact.

[Rocky_Shorz]

launched an email to see if he has time to drop by and discuss it...

thanks...

always wondered what it would look like to see the sky in night vision glasses, that video is incredible...

I do hope he is wrong about the sun expanding so we will be the closest planet to a red star, sounds like this summer was just a warmup

should get Nibiru fans dancing though...

As i went walking the evening before last i was feeling a bit down and i asked for some sign of hope for the future- within a couple of minutes what appeared to be the last remnants of a shooting star passed close by above me- a consoling sign, note to self ; keep eyes open

lookbeyond

[RunningDeer]

oh wow... only 3200 have seen this...

I did a search on YouTube, and there were at least 5 other places where this vid is located. This one site has 26,227 hits since July, 2012. But even these numbers are low. Maybe if it was retitled, it'd get more hits.


PsiQo4qMEMg

[Belle]

Utube plays with the view numbers...

[Rocky_Shorz]

this is one of those videos, that what is shared hits, and then is the moment of your life flashing before your eyes wondering what we still have time to do...

then the chuckle of been here done that so many times before...

but the orbs picked up by the space station cameras are awesome...

with so many looking for existance of ETs I'd toss out the Fear porn aspect of the narative and just share the video... it'd go viral without the terror.

I wouldn't share it with friends or family, oops...

I already did here at Avalon...

but this is a very special family...

imagine if Romney gets in and every time Pinocchio lies it sets me off...

lol, he would be walking on his nose back and forth, wherever he goes, and we would all be walking on his nose too

[sygh]

Just got done reading some of the Hopi prophecies. Absolutely feel like I was led to them, and to this site (link below) imparticular. I know nothing about the site itself but the content hit home like an arrow finds it's mark. I will not tell you what this link says, it is up to you to read it, if you feel the need to do so. What I will say is this: This year, I have been seeing things in the sky that I have never seen before in my life, and I'm 56. I am old enough to remember what the night sky looks like without light interference, and without having to go to the mountains to do it.

Earlier this year, I saw two totally round rainbows (one was within the other) at the sky's zenith. The second thing I saw was a huge ring around the sun, not small... huge. Yes, this second was surely ice crystals but never before have I seen the likes of such as this. Its going to get rocky, probably so. That's OK with me, just as long as we keep on recognizing ya can't take, take, take from mother earth. We must continue to change our ways, always toward the better way to coexist with nature. That is the way it is, there is no other way.

[amandapoet]

Am I doing what I came here to do?
Am I doing enough?



~Yes, I am doing what I came here to do. Funny thing is that I've been questioning my "purpose" for most of my life--always feeling I was meant to do something. Imagine my surprise when none of the 10 year plans I created and re-created from 12 years old-26 didn't pan out, lol. And for a long time I felt I was off track, and not fulfilling my potential-- but experience, time, and maturity have revealed it was not me that was off track; it was the illusion of reality that was obstructing the truth right in front of me.

My name literally means "worthy of love" and for a long time I thought that meant being loved by others, looking externally for approval/ acceptance. It has been a long road getting to this point, but I now know it means that I am worthy of love, and to do that means loving myself in the same unconditional manner in which I love others. I have also learned that when you love all of yourself, from the gritty and graceful ---that your even more capable of loving and valuing every person and thing that you interact with in life. Perhaps, it was the dark moments I was exposed to, more specifically the darkness I seen others consumed in because they could not accept and truly love themselves' that actually illuminated me to this pearl of wisdom. So much pain, and destruction is wrought by those who are too afraid to love themselves wholly--they fracture their own self leaving those shards to cut into others in their path.

So using my own imperfect life as a model to loving divinely, I am here to help others discover how to and the importance of loving one's self unconditionally. And no, this is not something as easy as just saying it than believing it-- but actually seeing you as you are, being accountable to yourself and your effect on everything surrounding you, and taking ownership of your life and reactions to the circumstances of life. Of course, I don't and won't have a professional title that will describe my purpose, I just need to be open to the opportunity to do it.

Even during the most mundane or little moments since I was a little girl, I have always had this ability to leave a positive transformative imprint on others--most often unintentionally. I can see that now-- and I am embracing it now. Perhaps in my writing, teaching, or the random conversation with a stranger; I hope that I can give that spark that leads someone to their own truth and knowing that they are so much more than what they realize.

Ironically, I find myself as an unemployed single parent with a Master's degree in TESOL...lol... and living in a place that has no need for ESL and full of people desperate to wake up. Since I find myself in this momentary unemployment, I am still productive and I can say yes to question 2-- though I'll keep doing more. Now, I am acquiring information and learning new skills while keeping my eyes open to an opportunity that will work in harmony with my spiritual purpose and supporting my family's material existence. I know I am very close to it, or I just may have to create it.

Bill, you are right, I am very aware that I am not just in the movie, but I'm also directing it---from an outsider's view of my life, I probably appear more lost than ever---but I am more sure of where I am and where I'm going than I ever have been before.

~Amanda

[AwakeInADream]

Even during the most mundane or little moments since I was a little girl, I have always had this ability to leave a positive transformative moment on others--most often unintentionally.

I would replace this last word 'unintentionally' with 'unconditionally' and then you would have a truer picture of your soul.

I find myself too, at a low point in this physical realm, but by God I am joyful. Why?
I can only imagine it is something outside of myself, something spiritual pulling me on,
pulling us all on...

Welcome to Avalon!:)

While the rest of the world worry, about the end of the world, we will go quietly, confidently on...

[sygh]

Not the same person I was seven years ago. That's when I set out on a journey seeking knowledge. In a few short months that journey will end, and another part of my life will begin. Today, not alone, we hoisted a fan on a stick. Yup, we put up a wind turbine. Seems like such a far cry from the central telcommunications office I used to work in for so many years. And even farther from the technology I know we have. All the same, we connected the guy wires to the galvanized tubing and sent the old Southwest H40 up. The sitings no good, the winds don't amount to much 'round here but... it would definitely keep a water pump goin'.

The capstone for these years of my life will peak in May. I am working on putting together the first Sustainable Energy/Living Symposium for Wilmington, NC. I have a clear vision of the event in my mind (I better;-). Would really like to see some North Carolinians come together and look at NC with fresh eyes; see her attributes, and her weaknesses. Get a real idea of where we want to go, what we want the state to look like in 7 years, 14, years, 21, years etc... What IS important in the big picture, and what the heck just isn't any more. Are fish in the ocean more important than cargo ships from China? How about water verses fracking, or rail vs more highways? Passive solar architecture, or apartment complexes built with more than one function, and built with materials recycled materials yes, but built with a frickin' shelf life longer 40-50 years. Rain water collection, town orchards, and fish farms, animal rescue and husbandry. Giving back some of what we have taken from the air, the land and the sea.

Maybe it is too late but that's just not a good enough reason for me to quit trying cause may its not. Even so, it will at least be a little easier for the next guy walking down the road.

[Dancerrose]

I spent many younger years pondering why I was here and wondering if I had some great message for the world. Eventually all the mystery and confusion died down and I realised that our mission can be as small as a simple act of kindness. Service to others, in whatever form we choose, is what makes life worth living.

[ghostrider]

Good work! I've done a few at work as well. Its always good to notch up another successful "eye-opener".

Bill, For those of us (and I really hope I am not the only one here) who don't know why we are here, what do you recommend? Because, I am feeling very lost lately. I know that I am here for a specific purpose. I get that. I just don't know what it is.and I feel time is slipping through my fingers, and I am not fulfilling my duty. Could it be that some of us are suppose to just "be"? I have wasted a lot of energy and anxiety on this very topic.

Accept this not knowing as a phase in your personal and spiritual growth process. It is great that you acknowledge that you are feeling lost, I get the impression a lot of people skip this step by suddenly claiming to have all the answers. Only when you are lost first you an find your way :) It is a frustrating phase and I am only moving beyond it very recently and I did not do anything to find my way. For a while I just had to stay lost. Do not look outward, go inward, but without actively searching. Often when you are not searching or focusing something will come to you almost unnoticed which will lead the way. At least that is how it works for me ;) My very best wishes to you!

Recently a very clear thought came into my head. I was not actively thinking, in fact I was delevering the mail (very boring). But suddenly I thought: I am meant to be on earth. Then an inner dialogue started and I was testing myself intuïtively. So what if there came a spaceship with a beautiful galatic family to taken you to a better world? I would honoustly say: No, I will sit this one out, I will stay with Gaia. The same goes when Gaia would split, I would not want to leave anyone behind or leave (one version of) Gaia in a terrible state.
So I do not know exactly what I am meant to do in concrete terms but I know so far that I am meant to be here and stay here. So far that is enough for me!
While growing up I felt often like I wasn't enough and when I first started to feel like I could do some things right it was never enough for me. But looking as an adult towards the child that I was I would say I did more than enough and that I was much stronger than I thought.
I think most of the time we are doing a lot more than we think, so the challenge is not to do more but to become aware of what you are actually doing and of the effects you have on people. By lifting the burden of doing more and by becoming aware of what you have been doing so far (as well as forgive yourself for what you have not been doing so far for whatever reason), then you can create an incredible freedom within yourself which gives you the possibility to truly experience the path you were/are on anyway and it allows you to go any direction you want to go.

The answer, as I understand it, is to make a choice. A choice between service to self, or service to others and then to follow a path where one acts according to the selected principle.

Question: are these choices really seperate? Over the years I have grown a bit allergic for the phrase 'serving others'. I do not believe this is always a good thing. I think I know what you are trying to say but often I find these terms misleading like serving yourself is bad and serving others is good. I do not even think you can truly 'serve' others or possitively influence others when you have not served yourself first. I believe you need to be in line with your own spiritual path first to have a positive influence on others. And then you do not even have to actively server others to have a positive influene. Just being there, expressing your energy, will have an effect on people, and on everyone in a different way which you cannot even control intentionally. A lot of people also totally disregard themselves just to try very hard to be there for others. This is counterproductive and sacrifices the self which is a shame :) You agree?

Hail fellow traveler,seeker,teacher and learner. Well met!

Yes I agree.

If you have read this thread, you will see that in it I had an opportunity to learn a few things about stating what our singular purpose may be and also the error of speaking for those other than myself. I will try not to make the same mistake again. I do agree with your post, and the various dynamics of service and what the motives might be. There are paradoxes there I can't solve and wont pretend to try. I think it comes down to balance and proportions.

When thinking in terms of STS vs STO, I think these concepts are useful in as far as they can go, but at the point things get complicate and mixed up, they may defeat themselves - unsolvable paradox to us, as they are rooted in the operation of factors outside of space and time.

I wonder if I sat down and tried to write the post I did at the start again, what would come out?

I am here. It may be for a purpose. It probably is, as I do not believe there are any mistakes to the way things are.

I do not understand all of the things I can see and be physically aware of, let alone the things I can't be aware of with the limited (but expanding) senses that I do have.

I strongly suspect I am a wanderer and the more water that passes under the bridge, the more that this is affirmed to me. This fact is not really important, but I wonder if the same applies in your case? ( I felt a spark of recognition if you want to know that. )

I follow a positive path - increasingly, I realize that its not all about me :)

I have learned that it is also important to serve myself. I should do more of that than I do actually do, but yes I have to work to maintain my physical vehicle and I don't consider it a deviation from an STO path. The more balance I find in this, the happier I am.

I hope this answers you, thanks for asking me.

Service to others is good, it could be as simple as cooking eggs for the one that takes care of the chickens. Service is like water it flows around goes where it is needed to make the surface level.

Are we making a difference? I am starting to see cracks in the old paradigm are you? I do not like the title of this video report but do like the contents! worth a few mins. IMHO

In daily life I used to be pretty much in the background. I do not dislike interaction with other people
but I work alone. I don't know why but recently I noticed a change. All of a sudden people start coming
to me in high expectation of advice. Even in areas where they know I have no knowledge or experience.

I have felt all my life that my main role in this life would be 'way-pointer'. Nothing more nothing less.
I fulfilled that role in the past but less and less in the last decades. It feels like am 'activated' again.
It feels like ... the time is here.

[Borodin]

In the early Summer of 1997, having come naturally to the end of a productive period/project, where achievements had been achieved, personal hopes met, and many challenges & satisfactions experienced in the process, I had reached a definite cadence point: a feeling of completion and of 'what now?'.

The 'what-now?' question led intuitively to the broader, wider, sense-of-purpose question; 'what is my purpose' - or 'what we may be here to do' - the idea that Bill has used as his thread title.

As the 'finish point' of this productive period had been in London (UK) in the Spring of that year, and being utterly in need of a time-out, I followed my intuition to return to that city to spend a week or so in free-flow; walking the parks and the embankments, and allowing thoughts to come and go, but, all of it underpinned by this burning, inner issue concerning 'purpose'.

(I should mention that I have always felt 'at home' in London: arriving there is always accompanied by a 'coming home' vibe, and leaving it has always been a bit of a pain - even though there is no 'rational' reason for this.)

Cutting a long story short, the night arrived where I was pushing 'myself' strongly for some leads, some guidance, on the question of MY purpose. I wasn't being humble about asking the question either - I firmly believe we are guided if we ask for it - I was demanding a response. Cheeky, I know! :o Sitting at the desk in my hotel room, I filled pages and pages with hand-written streams of 'stuff'. The process went on all night, and I went with it.

It was late the following day when I got around to actually reading what had become a fairly hefty volume of verbiage...... and right there at the end of it was this one sentence, the proverbial (for me) Eureka:


OVERCOME CHALLENGE AND HELP OTHERS TO DO THE SAME.

It was that simple a statement. So simple. So obvious. And it so hit that 'inner' nail on the head, I had to sit down while the penny dropped.

Most certainly, for me, it was a peak, unforgettable moment.

It is imprinted now in my dna. I can't say I always live up to it, but I can say that it is one central plank in my make-up and in the way I go about living this life.

My assignment is to help people prepare..... for something major. That's all I know. Since I was in my 20's I've helped people learn how to be prepared. First it started with my neighborhood. We lived in California back then and earthquakes were pretty common. It was the start of my visions. I turned my neighborhood watch group into an Neighborhood Emergency Services. Our neighborhood was prepared for ANY kind of emergency for at least 1 year. Just incase the Big One (earthquake) hit. I was in my 20's when I got this done and from what people told me it was the most complete tool in it's time. Flood, Hurricane, Tsunami, Flood, Tornado, Black Outs, Biological, Nuclear, Fire, Famine, I even had Terrorist Attack listed. If it was a potential danger it was listed with what to do and supplies needed.

A few years later I started working for the Sheriff's office and guess where they sent me. To a class on "How to prepare your neighborhood in case of a disaster" I couldn't believe it. They were already teaching what I had started 3 years earlier. I told the teacher I was the one that started that and my neighborhood was already prepared. He said this was a new class and asked if I wanted to teach it. I declined but said I would help give pointers of what I had done.

I moved to Ohio and about 10 years later I was listening on the radio. They were announcing a class to Prepare your neighborhood for Emergencies. I had to laugh.... It made it's way all the way to Ohio. My friend that helped me said someone asked her if they could have the info to make a book. I told her to tell them sure, the more people that know how to prepare the better. She sent me a copy of the book after it was written, it had acknowledgements to us.

Now, this year I'm receiving the same info from government classes I have to take. So it seems that my idea I had back in the 70's is spreading into the future and across America.
Prepping has come a long way from the 70's.

What got this ball rolling was the day my son burned his entire face. I grabbed my son and laid him down on the grass in my front yard and ran the hose on his face. I told my mother and sister to call 911. When the ambulance came they did nothing! They told me it would cost me a lot of money to transport my son and they said I could do it myself. I couldn't believe my ears. I said fine I told my mother to get a bowl of water and I took my son to the ER and kept him ducking his face in the water. I found out I was not at the right hospital that I had to go clear across town to the burn unit. I got my son to that hospital and he needed to have his skin scrapped every day. Wrapped in bandages with special creams. It took a few months of daily treatments. My son came out of it with out one scar on his face and the doctor said if I hadn't done what I did spraying him with the hose that he would have had a scarred face. All he lost was his freckles. I had no knowledge on how to handle an Emergency. I just heard a voice in my head say get him under water fast. So that's what I did and that's what led me to helping other people prepare for Emergencies.

ROFL...... Thanks much! Had this nick when I first got in the internet. I was so FraZZleD at what I was doing at that time. I gave myself this nick and have stuck with it ever since. LOL

Many of us will rush about seeking validation from others. We want their approval. The fine line between helping and interfering is blurred.

If we can't get their approval we'll try for their sympathy.

Telling others what to do makes us feel important. Some of us have agendas and ulterior motives. We can use our cover to peg the neighborhood, to learn who has what, which people live where, especially the vulnerable and young women that live alone.

We humans sometimes will go to the ends of the earth to avoid taking a good hard long look in the mirror at ourselves.

It's the same for everybody whether you are Michael Jackson or cointelpro
