The Reset Button...and a Terrible Question

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

I have been feeling down recently. Nothing seems to change, nothing ever seems to get better. The world is stuck in a rut of just endless misery and sameness and war. When will it ever end?

The present regime and the Powers That Be cling on. I do not believe they will ever change, nor relinquish their hold on this planet. I look upon the leaders of the so called 'Free World' and I see little to no hope of progress from them. In fact I see the opposite. There's probably not been a single day in 5,000 years when a war, battle, or conflict was not happening somewhere in the world. I cannot see any downtrend to the violence. War will continue, and perhaps increase, as will restrictions on our freedom, and the suppression of the truth. As the transhumanist nightmare unravels and begins to flourish, I do not see more people waking up, I see those that are sleeping falling into an even deeper sleep.

I was listening to Cameron the other day, with regards the immigration crisis in Europe. I also heard what Merkel and Obama were saying. Later, on a different note, I listened to the diatribes of Trump and Clinton on their rallies - all because these are the so-called 'leaders', and those seeking to be leaders, of the so-called 'Free World'. Are these the wisest, most qualified, most righteous people that Earth has to offer in her time of such crisis?

I used to be amused when political elections came on TV, listening to all the rhetoric and false promises, and watching all the bright eyed, smiling supporters whooping, dancing and holding banners. Now it just makes me very tired, and very miserable. The flag-waving masses are sadly, utterly deluded still, after all the regimes and administrations, after all these years. Will they not ever learn? We they not ever figure it out? They are without awareness, and seemingly without a single iota of intelligence. Same for all the experts, commentators and pundits. Can't the people see that what we need in our leaders is honesty, peace, love, and wisdom, and a smidgeon of spiritual awareness at least? None of them have any of these things. All the sleeping masses are cheering is just another puppet of the system, a puppet replacing the previous puppet of the same system. It doesn't matter what party you support, or what colour flag you wave. There is no multi-party system. There is no democracy. Republican, democrat, socialist, liberal - whatever label you like. There is only one party, (with only superficial facets), with one philosophy, and one drive: to control, dominate, and control some more, and at all costs to sustain the status quo. What the flag-wavers are cheering, and will ultimately vote for, is for nothing to change, and for nothing to improve. For just more of the same…

The more I think (brood) about it, the more I think that there is no way, there can be no other way the world will have an opportunity to change - for humanity to at last unite and move forward in both peace and freedom - unless there's some sort of big, watershed event to remove this current system of ours. The pressing of a global reset button. For Gaia Herself perhaps to rebel against the infestation that is damaging her so gravely. Potentially something, dare I say, cataclysmic.

In order for a new world to begin, the old world must end. I ask an almost unthinkable question here. Is it insane, is it so very very wrong, to actually want this to take place? The thought horrifies me. Because I have reached the dreadful point now where I do not think there is any other way. Of course I don't want anyone to suffer, anyone to die. But without a reset, is there any other way - is there any other way at all except yet another century, or several centuries, of the so-called State subjugating, enslaving, poisoning and terrorising its own people? How much more can we take?

Minor progress here and there with articles and essays and youtube videos to educate and inform is all well and good. It's very good, but how much difference does it make? How much improvement has decades of light work and free thinking really done? Is it working? Is it helping the wider world, the WHOLE world, or just the tiny awake portion of it? We need a massive paradigm shift. The wealth of the world needs to be divided. We need disclosure, and a whole new regime of peace, fairness, and transparency. For years we have been working, hoping, visualising and meditating for this change. Perhaps we slowly shuffle forward inch by inch in global consciousness towards that eventual change. But by the time we get there, will it be too late? At this rate Earth will be so over-populated by 2100, even by 2050, its air, water, and climate so ravaged that maybe it will be uninhabitable. The progress we are making might not be quick enough.

We need sweeping changes. Now! I don't see anyone inside the current political method rising through the ranks to initiate and enforce the sweeping changes we want to see in the world. TPTB won't allow it. Can it come from someone outside then? Perhaps. But would an outside, independent force have the capacity to impose or inspire such a sweeping change? I doubt it. So what is the answer? Is there really any hope anymore? Without change, we ARE doomed. Where and how can the changes come? From Gaia? From the Universe. From ETs? Our destiny I suppose is in our own hands. But is there any way we can effectively, fundamentally, free ourselves and save ourselves, and our civilization?

So the terrible question. I ask you all this terrible question: For the benefit of our species, and the very survival of Earth itself, the world MUST change, and it must change profoundly, and soon. But if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen?? Think about it, because it may mean your life, and everything you know and hold dear.

Sorry to be on such a downer, but I'm feeling very sad about the world at the moment. More than I ever have. I would gladly give up my life (and go home) for things to change. Because I really don't want to be here anymore.

I am saying this seriously you sound like you need a break. Take time out and distract yourself from these thoughts by immersing yourself completely in something you enjoy for what ever time you need to. Or have a vacation by just lying down and having a nap. You will feel better afterwards.

[Bill Ryan]

Thanks for this very honest (and anguished) post. I can really understand.

Your 'terrible' question...
For the benefit of our species, and the very survival of Earth itself, the world MUST change, and it must change profoundly, and soon. But if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen??... is a good one.

And there's growing evidence that just thing kind of natural 'reset' has happened before, maybe as recently as 12,000 years ago (see Graham Hancock's ongoing work on this), and better-established in the mainstream scientific community, the enormous Toba eruption (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toba_catastrophe_theory), maybe 70,000 years ago, that many now suspect downsized the human population at that time to just a few thousand individuals. That's very nearly extinction.

It seems these things do happen, and are part of a far larger natural cycle. We're prone to see them as 'terrible', but they're maybe just part of the natural process.

To speculate further (and this is hardly new): maybe the ramp-up of ET interest in our world is because they know, with highly advanced technology we can barely imagine, that something catastrophic may happen. Maybe many of us can sense it in the wind, without being able to put out finger on it.

Maybe the elite of the world somehow know this with more facts (or probabilities) available to them... hence the deep underground bases, and the secret space program with a possible agenda to evacuate the planet (at least for a few).

I speculate on this on this thread of mine from 2012:

From Bill Ryan -- the Ultimate Hypothesis (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?46887-From-Bill-Ryan-the-Ultimate-Hypothesis)

Interestingly, I was discussing this a few years before some others opened up the same question in the recent Secret Space Program conferences.

I have a kind of personal take on this, too. See this thread of mine, also, in which I report on a recall of an abduction experience from my previous life in the late 1940s. Some newer members may not know about this. It was traumatic — not the experience, but what I recalled I was shown.

A warning from benevolent ETs about our future - over 60 years ago (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?39611-A-warning-from-benevolent-ETs-about-our-future-over-60-years-ago)

There's even an update on this, which I should post more about (if I can summon the courage!). About 18 months ago, I dived into this again, with a highly competent therapist, and recorded about a dozen hours of regression sessions on this (and a lot more, besides).

Basically, I was shown the Earth's atmosphere literally burning. I can see the image right now, and it's the most awful, dreadful sight one can ever imagine. I can see it in my mind's eye like I saw it in a movie last night. I just stare at it, and it kind of stops me from functioning, until I mentally turn away.

Earlier, I thought I was being shown a possible potential nuclear war. Now, I'm more given to suspecting that it was a kind of 'Killshot' (as per Ed Dames' remote viewing predictions). The big question is whether this was just a possibility, or an inevitability. I have no idea which. I suspect the former, but (sometimes) fear the latter.

Camelot witness Henry Deacon (who, of all the way-out witnesses that have appeared in the last few years, is far and away the most reliable, and maybe the ONLY one that's reliable) was adamant that future timelines are all possibilities, but that some are more likely than others.

(Dan Burisch would agree: see http://projectcamelot.org/t1v83.html, about Timeline 1, Version 83: that was the 2008 Hillary Clinton presidency timeline, that never transpired at that time.)

Henry stated that it was known there were four major future timelines — only one of which was truly catastrophic, featuring the Earth as a barren ball of rock, 6,000 years hence. Henry did NOT tell us how this was known or had been 'seen'. Of course, this kind of information is quite unverifiable, and can only be noted in the margin, as it were.

I'll pause now! This is a huge topic... and thanks again for being brave enough to ask the question.

[kirolak]

Yes, RESPECT & Kudos to you, for speaking out desp:bearhug:ite the "feel good fairies". . .I feel the same, & am willing to drop this body right now if it will help in making a new, better world for all. . . .how can we be "happy" when we know that others (especially the animals) are being used/abused/vivisected/lied to. . . it is kind of psychopathy. And death of the body is fairly speedy, in comparison to world events, & as such is not to be feared. We wear our bodies for a short span of time, like a school uniform. . . :heart:Please do not feel depressed or afraid, (IF you do!) it comes to us all. . . . & we're all still OK :bigsmile:

Warning. This post may seem flippant: it is not.
The idea that things may end very badly definitely has to be kept in mind regardless of the eventual outcome this time around. The outcome is certainly not a foregone conclusion. One learns from sporting situations that when things are close, if you are ahead, it is only by being fully aware that you may lose – and without this interfering with your positive mindset – that you can go on to win; if you don’t, you become cocky and make mistakes. If you are losing, you need that same positive mindset to understand that you may still win, notably but not entirely because of the above. Either way, you have two opposing forces, and within each of them two opposing forces: the determination to win and the acceptance of possible defeat; all of this taken in the context of a particular event: next time might well be different, but every time it is the same, it becomes harder to change, and believe in that change.

Maybe the ET presence right now and the fact that for humanity it is standing room only on planet Earth have something to do with an endgame: no one leaves a tennis match finely poised in the final set when things have unavoidably been coming to a head for some time. The favourite is in danger, and although he usually wins, even from here, there is always the chance of a memorable upset. Previous disasters are merely the formbook, caused by a combination of the other (one’s opponent) and oneself; but if the outsider is to have any chance, that is something he refuses to think about, because for him this time is going to be different. Mistakes can be made, but most of all they can be provoked by raising your game: just give it everything you’ve got and see what happens.

I am not interested in previous disasters: they can only produce more of the same. I am only interested in getting things right this time around. On the other hand, when the game is over, but not before, and whatever the result, I will remember that it is only a game – one of many games: next time may be different again. But beware of the odd bad loser – and the odd cheat.

[Foxie Loxie]

We can all understand where you are coming from! What gives me comfort at this later stage in my life is I realize now that my life has had a purpose, even if when I was living through circumstances, I could not comprehend what was unfolding. Your life has a purpose as well, even if you are unable to recognize it at this point! The very fact that you are a part of this marvelous community shows that things are indeed changing! Just "go with the flow" & live each day in the moment. :bearhug:

[RunningDeer]

http://avalonlibrary.net/paula/Recovered/writing_zpsd26h7e8a.GIF I hit the proverbial wall about 3-4 weeks ago.

Still waiting for the attention span to come back on-line. A perfect example is I’m 36 minutes into the latest episode of ‘The BlackList’ that’s 44 minutes long. I began it about two and a half hours ago….no… make that three and half hours ago.

Recently, I figured out to stop comparing what worked before with what works now. Like, no matter how fried I get, either a power nap or a five minute sit down without gadgets and I’m 100% rejuvenated.

I understand folks are talking about the bigger picture here. I’m feeling it, too. I’ve made a conscious effort to shift focus. As mentioned before, I notice the small ways things are changing around me. Out of nowhere, I ’catch myself’ doing something with greater efficiency. It’s as though the brain cells are smarter, the instincts have sharpened and the synchronicities continue to pop-up.
So in my world, we’re all balancing out that other. http://avalonlibrary.net/paula/Recovered/tnp_zpslrclongg.GIF

Bottom line is…I live my world.

[shaberon]

Even without a catastrophe, humanity is unlikely to exist en masse beyond another 200 years.

The catastrophe is inevitable and normal; just my opinion, but I think it's a few thousand years off.

In my time I have seen the establishment go exactly backwards. However, I should also say that the anti-establishment thoughts and actions (of many kinds) of ordinary people has blossomed significantly. Both in my area, and world-wide. I also see the un-sustainable, self-destructive nature of the system is hitting home, more and more. I don't think it has very many years left, and once it abdicates the throne, we as a whole have a better chance.

I may not personally make it much further and there is a great deal of horrible-ness in store for many. No denying it. I wouldn't say it's insane or fault anyone for wanting a cataclysm to do the wipeout, just that the earth will run its own cycle whether you want it to or not. We *could* simply fire the whole nuclear arsenal and defy any higher power to neutralize it. I would prefer to struggle to death than to go ahead and eat a man-made sun. So ultimately I must disagree with any intentional, or any negligent, methods of total annihilation.

Smaller methods: yes, I think in some cases, wars and other unpleasantries are justified.

[Antihero]

I do not seek for others to be as I am. I met a killer and gave him love, he gave me fear, I still gave him love. At the point of his knife I sat and awaited his choice, he left me alone. I am not bound by what I can not control. May the skies shower me with ash. May the ground scorch my feet. My heart is with me. Your heart is with me. No army of jokers can stand in the way of what is always there. Most people around me are blinded by fear. I will stand by them in their decided destruction as a light, if they need me.

[Debra]

I get it. I get it I so get it. We are a community that has for so long talked about the very bumpy road ahead and it's already upon us and in so many ways for me as well, it's been going on for a while.

So when folk on here, who I think are bullet proof resilient to all manner of the tumultuous and gritty realities that swirl around take a melt down, I wake up and admire you more for being real and vulnerable with where you are and where you at at.

This is a snakey time. It's also the time we see the miracles within us. All I can say to my many meltdowns, is, they are what I need as an individual. They are like eating lumps of concrete with barbed wire, yet when I ask myself why, and just live with myself instead of beating myself up, the self awareness is like nothing else and the answers are there. Can't miss them.

Deepest night of the soul ... We are all heroes and this is the path.

Hang in there Star Mariner, what I believe is this is your soul beating on your door to come into your next expansive moment. Viva the transition!

[samildamach]

I called my second daughter hope.I did this as I would always have hope in my heart no matter what was going on in the world

[mosquito]

I agree totally with everything you say Star Mariner. I could add plenty more things I've observed over the years, but suffice it to say that I too believe a global "catastrophe" is the only thing which will shift humanity into the next level of evolution. If I'm one of those whose life gets extinguished in order for there to be a future for the occupants of planet Earth, (ALL the occupants), then so be it.

The only way I can come close to being centred is to listen to Alan Watts on a regular basis, normally just before bed. This and to realise on a deep level that the universe truly is unfolding in the way it needs to, and that maybe I don't need to understand it rationally.

There's plenty of Alan Watts freely available (1 minute of whom is worth hours of anyone else), here's a good one to start with ....

Needless to say, spending some time in nature will also help you feel more balanced.

Thanks for your post and saying what I, and probably many others, think.

The full story begins around 58 minutes, and @ 1:02:00 (quick link here) (https://youtu.be/BD0N4k4vS70?t=1h2m00s) Waterman jumps into the junk DNA part. The topic runs for approximately eighteen minutes. It’s worth a listen. :thumbsup:

I think the 'end' may be much more like T.S.Elliot's "This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a whimper." Certainly the problem of overpopulation will be less when we have no antibiotic or certain antidote for the bacteria and viruses that cause deadly diseases. It used to be a scratch from gardening could cause disease or an infection that would kill. I can remember many people with missing fingers from having amputations, the only treatment then for such infections. Many more died. TB and other diseases used to cut down thousands of young people in their 20s, there was no cure. We have overused the 'miracle' drugs to such an extent that we face a future of disease that will resemble the past. It will be worse than we can imagine- think of the panic over ebola- and what treatment stopped it! Imagine if those drugs did not work any more. Maybe the people among us who know about this are actually building their quarantine areas with the underground bunkers etc.

[onawah]

Here's my take on this:
The way I've learned to deal with this kind of issue is actually something I first encountered way back in the 60s when I began to get deeply into the teachings of Zen and Tibetan Buddhism.
It has to do with non-resistance, surrender and living in the Now.
The meanings of those words have been my koans for years.

I resist non-resistance like crazy!
But eventually I've begun to understand more just by observing my own inner world, which allows me to become more conscious.
What I've come to see is that resisting the feelings that my biggest issues bring up for me is actually much worse than actually just experiencing those feelings.
And I began to understand that the issues weren't really what were causing my angst, but my feelings about the feelings those issues bring up. :lol:

Surrender, something which classical spiritual practices are always referring to, in my view isn't cowardice or passivity (which is what that word originally brought up for me); instead, I think it's having the courage to face all the scary feelings and thoughts and just BE with them--look at them, live fully with them, make friends with them.
We think we will drown in them, be overcome by them; but what happens, as we consciously observe the process, is that we become more and more peaceful and the feelings and angst attached to the issues are gradually released.

I practice living in the now by conceptualizing life as kind of like being in the eye of a hurricane.
I have always the feeling of having had to come through one side of the storm in order to reach that peaceful center, and I also know that I will have to go through the other side as well, and that no doubt there will be more storms to come.
But if I focus on being the calm center myself, then I can experience that center of peacefulness no matter what kind of storm in life I am going through.

Somewhere inside of us, those black holes of despair, fear, anger or whatever, were always there, kind of like events on a timeline.
We spend huge amounts of energy trying to avoid them and jump to a better timeline.
But if we finally surrender and allow ourselves just to be in those holes, they will start to shrink and eventually disappear, and we emerge much freer to move onto our next step.
The healing of our world starts with the healing process that goes on within each one of us, and that process is our first fundamental responsibility.
At the very least, if we are doing our best with that, the worst feelings--of guilt, remorse, self-hatred--lose their power over us.
And a clear conscience is the best friend we can have, no matter how dark the future may seem.

So if you find yourself in your deepest, darkest despair, you have cause to celebrate! :sun:
If you allow yourself to experience it fully, and have faith that embracing it consciously and with acceptance, centered in your full beingness, you will come through to the other side a much lighter, brighter and wiser being. :happy:

[Joe Sustaire]

That is beautifully expressed onawah, and valuable instruction on how to weather the storms we find ourselves in these days!

Yes it's hard not to be overwhelmed and undone by the times we live in, but learning to be the calm in the eye of the storm, where the beauty and magic of life can still be perceived, is magical indeed. Easier said than done, but that's how it is with anything worth doing.

[Pam]

I remember when I was a little girl and had this absolute optimism that the human condition would only get better. I believed we would see the folly of war, we would make sure everyone was clothed and fed, I believed the lion would eventually lay down with the lamb. Wow, was I in for a surprise.

This may sound really strange, but in a lot of ways I feel like the person that goes out into the world everyday without a hair out of place, dressed nicely with a smile on my face while in my house the other family members are starving and living in squalor. It is that kind of disconnect that each of us lives with everyday. At this very moment, there are 10,000 refugee children missing and unaccounted for. I can only imagine what has happened to them, and it's not pretty. There are millions of people literally starving at this very moment. What about the wonderful animals that we were supposed to look out for? What the hell is going on here? Why do we have to live with this huge hypocrisy every day?

I don't seem to have the filter that lets me forget about it. I feel it in the background all the time. It's the evil swept under the bed and it sits there and waits....... there is something so wrong with this world. A disaster might change things initially, but unless there is a change of consciousness, I fear the same scenario would be repeated. As long as the egoic self acts out of fear, and greed from the standpoint of the separate self we will get more of the same.

[RunningDeer]

Somewhere inside of us, those black holes of despair, fear, anger or whatever,

Beautiful, thank you, onawah. http://avalonlibrary.net/paula/Recovered/smileys-hugs-765537_zpso1eaenyy.gif

I’ve experienced that place of calm. Two months after my son passed, the pain was too much to bear. In the woods, I let loose all the rage and pain and anger. I collapsed on the ground in wait for my death. Instead heat and silence blanketed me.

I’ve not been in that deep a place since, but it’s comforting to know how to access it. In times of necessity, I know how to sit in the center of calm because of that experience.

Thank you guys, thank you Bill, thank you ALL! for taking the time out of your day to reply to what I suppose was a bit of a cry for help. I am not really depressed, perhaps tired of things, and a little disillusioned. And also worried, for personal reasons. This has been a tough, tough year. Even as I write this, my dear brother, a wonderful human being, is fighting for his life in hospital. He has an acute and dangerous strain of pneumonia. Any prayer you can ask, or energy you can send, would be so very deeply and lovingly appreciated!

This is such an amazing place, it really is. Avalon isn't just a resource, a library or a discussion forum, it's actually a family. That's what I think it really is. And I feel blessed and privileged to be part of it.


The following video is helpful for me when I'm screaming inside to go home. Hope it helps! Much Love Star M.

Many thanks for that! It helped. When I say go home, I'm not sure I know what I mean, because I’m not sure where, or what, home is...

Thanks Bill, you're right of course. Earth has many times before suffered these disasters, some natural, some man-made I am sure. The Atlantean upheaval is one such example - and one I feel is very important for humankind to remember, because we are not a million miles away from the exact same (dangerous) place as the Atlanteans were all those thousands of years ago. I know it, and I feel it, that they destroyed themselves (not a natural disaster), through avarice, corruption, and 'playing with fire'. This is what 'those upstairs' are so anxious to prevent from happening again, because it was such a devastating waste, what the Atlanteans were, what they created, and what they ultimately lost. So much progress, goodness, and wisdom went up in smoke - at least partially. I have something of the Atlantean memory in my soul, I feel it but I do not remember any details. But I'm convinced that something was saved in the disaster, and preserved by survivors that fled far away and underground. I think they survive to this day, a hidden civilization still underground.

I think you're right also (in fact I'm convinced of it), that we have averted (or risen above) the worst case scenario disasters that many in the past predicted (and like yourself actually shown). I've been shown things too, and they were consistent with what Henry Deacon stated. The future was only a potential future; ultimately everything was down to humanity, and which way it wanted to go. Growing up I felt, believed, perhaps intuitively knew somehow, that the crunch, for whatever reason, would happen in the future year of 1995. A crossroads would be reached, and a tipping point, in 1995. I was always afraid of that year, fearing what would happen. Thank God nothing did. We pushed past it intact. That's not to say other disasters and calamities would not occur down the road, but the threat of (complete) annihilation on perhaps a planetary scale receded in its potential year by year after that. I also felt if we could also pass beyond 2012 in one piece, then we really would be on the road to not just survival, but greatness. I had just hoped that by now (2016) something would have happened, that big changes would and should have occurred by now - at the very least, we would no longer be in the dark, and that tangible signs of a Greater Reality would be in evidence to all. Peace, stability, freedom, and disclosure. I feel confused and disheartened that this has not happened, that we're still in the dark, still suffering, and the world is still in such turmoil.



I have a kind of personal take on this, too. See this thread of mine, also, in which I report on a recall of an abduction experience from my previous life in the late 1940s. Some newer members may not know about this. It was traumatic — not the experience, but what I recalled I was shown.

A warning from benevolent ETs about our future - over 60 years ago (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?39611-A-warning-from-benevolent-ETs-about-our-future-over-60-years-ago)

I remember reading this, it really is a fascinating story! With your last life ending in 1952, and this one beginning in 53' (a really quick turnaround) you were obviously very eager to jump right back in. You're definitely a man on a mission, Bill. Full respect and admiration for that...! I wish for my part that things were half as clear. I'll explain, if you can indulge me.

I have no idea who or what I am, where I'm from or why I'm here. I really have no idea at all, and in many ways I envy those who have had successful regressions, or just personal revelations, which have opened the door, even just a little, on their origins, past lives, a mere a hint of who and what they are and why they're in this life. I have never fit in anywhere; although very straight, normal, a typical Mr Average on the surface, I have always been a complete enigma to people (and to myself). I have so say I don’t much like the company of people (the regular sleeping people of the world). I don’t understand people, and in fact many frighten me.

I have had many extraordinary experiences, have witnessed many craft, been on craft (the recollections are strong, but disjointed - typical abduction scenarios), have been 'floated' out of bed, through a solid wall, and into...who knows what, all kinds of stuff. I've met and communicated with a variety of beings, virtually all these being thankfully 100% positive experiences. A couple have freaked me right out, but that's just the fragile human psyche at fault. The grey guys are mostly involved. From what I have experienced, they are very very loving, caring beings. They get a bad rap, but it's my opinion and understanding that some of them are not what they appear - the less than positive 'grey' is not the real thing. Some are not much more than robots, or automatons, and come across very cold. The 'elders', the true greys are anything but. Other grey-types are government creations, used in their own illicit programs and experiments.

I don't claim to be anyone different from anyone else, and particularly nothing special. All I do know is there is something, something in the background of my life which is going on, which I can't explain, nor fully understand. I know this because of the physical, tangible experiences which don't just suggest, but prove, that there IS something there, and it's real.

The real greys are benevolent, and working with us for our benefit. They have been here with us, watching us, helping us, for a long time. Since The Beginning. But I remember so little about my interactions with them. I know so little about what the actual reality, and purpose of it all, is. All that carries me forward is a deep inner knowingness that's it all good, it's all fine, and it's all part of the plan. The only advice I've been given is, "JUST BE". Anyone else been told this? "Don’t worry about anything, don't do anything (I've been told that I don't have to 'do' anything or be anything) - just be". It's comforting insofar that there is a plan, and that I am cared for, loved, and looked after. But it is also very frustrating that I am seemingly not allowed to 'know' anything consciously about who I am , what I am, where I am from, why I am here, or what in the wide world of wonder is actually going to happen, or is going on behind the scenes!

Twice in my life I have undergone hypno-regression to try and get to the bottom of it all, and twice it has been a complete dud. Both regressionists failed to put me under, even slightly. For one of them, it was the first time in her career such a thing had happened to her with one of her clients. There's a blockage there preventing it perhaps. Psychics and mediums don't have much luck either. I wish I had a hint, a clue, about why I am here and what I am supposed to be doing (if anything at all, apparently I'm not 'meant' to do anything) - but I suppose each and every one of us feels that way. It doesn't half make life very difficult when you don't have much of a direction or purpose, even a material one. I hate my job (I am not driven or much interested to 'do' anything, so take what humdrum drudgery I can get), don't have much money (re the crappy job), and lack the support of a partner as well (always been alone, never even had one intimate relationship in my life - I'm not dysfunctional lol, just a bit quiet and withdrawn I suppose and rarely meet new people, and I'm not driven to meet anyone or be with anyone so it's not a problem), yet sometimes it can be hard in that respect. But I am not complaining about it. It is what it is. I am what I am. I consider myself very lucky indeed, because life in my position is a piece of cake compared to so many around me, and around the world. It's just that I wish I had some sort of tangible 'reason' to be here. Even a secular reason, like a career to carry me forward toward some sort of fulfilment.

But anyway, that's my story, a bit of it anyway in a nutshell. From here I don't know where we're going, or where I'm going, or what is going to happen (or when!). I feel we're coasting through 'null time', where anything can happen. I guess what I have been feeling lately is a strong desire for something to change very soon. I feel humanity is mostly very good, actually quite wonderful. It deserves so much to get a break, after millennia of hardship and suffering. But the dross must be removed first. What I envision (long to see happen), is for the wheat to be separated from the chaff - the light from the dark, and the loving from the hateful. Let the best that humanity has to offer carry on and evolve, and thrive by itself, released from the other dark half of humankind that has subjected it to such violence, greed, ignorance and injustice for so long. A dream perhaps, but it's a nice dream to have.

The only advice I've been given is, "JUST BE". Anyone else been told this? "Don’t worry about anything, don't do anything (I've been told that I don't have to 'do' anything or be anything) - just be". It's comforting insofar that there is a plan, and that I am cared for, loved, and looked after. But it is also very frustrating that I am seemingly not allowed to 'know' anything consciously about who I am , what I am, where I am from, why I am here, or what in the wide teach your energy to world of wonder is actually going to happen, or is going on behind the scenes!

Yes, I've been told this. I think of it this way, SCOTUS members don't have to DO anything to BE who they are. What they do is just a reflection of who they are. What they do arises out of who they ARE, and this is the spiritual aspect that drives what they do. So Clarence Hill for example, his energy sucketh mightily, it was the energy of Bush and thugs that put him there, to be an energy blob/lying bag of s---/vengeful/misogynistic sack of pus on the Supreme Court.

Same with us. Our default energy that we emanate, drives what we do, even if we are unaware of it. Our energy is constantly 24/7, shaping events, even when we think we are doing nothing.

Perhaps even more so when we do nothing, hence the Buddhist path to sit still, and teach our energy to become clear, accurately reflective.

I hear your agony, and grief. I feel it often. Then I have to go cuddle with the eternal things that matter. :)

[onawah]

I'm glad you didn't hold anything back there, Sierra. My feelings exactly! :lol:
The rest of this year and probably all of next year are sure to be huge crunchers. I'm also very grateful I have this forum to help keep me sane through it all.
Thanks Avalonians! :heart:

Hi Star Mariner. Before one can evaluate whether or not the whole world is being helped by decades of light work, you would have to define toward what end, ie- essentially, the meaning or purpose of life, if there is one.

The short version of the description of that which seems closest to the truth for me goes something like this- A single undifferentiated consciousness (often referred to as God) got lonely and/or bored. So, it began dividing itself into an infinite variety of separate consciounesses. Each of these individuated consciousnesses follows a unique trajectory, interacting with other individuated consciousnesses across space and time. The overall course of each trajectory, however, follows the same general pattern of separation and return.

One of my favorite teachers, Ram Dass, likens it to the cycle water follows: separation- rising from the ocean through evaporation, forming clouds and finally falling as rain.

So, from that perspective,
“...How much improvement has decades of light work and free thinking really done?...” It’s helped tremendously for “the tiny awake portion”, much the same as the presence of condensation nuclei help clouds form. It’s the requisite stimulus for those who are at that point along their path. Has it changed the overall nature of incarnating on this planet at this time? Not much, but souls that won’t benefit from life on planet Earth at this time aren’t likely to incarnate here at the moment. Does that mean we should just give up and stop pushing for change? If that’s what feels right for you, sure. If it doesn’t feel right, then no. The universe doesn't care how long or what path you take to go home. You won’t get home, however, by not honoring your current incarnation. Lessons are repeated until learned.

Again, to paraphrase from Ram Dass- Work as hard as you can to make the world a better place, realizing that it’s all perfect just the way it is, including the horrible suffering that exists and your desire and work to end that suffering.


“...But by the time we get there, will it be too late?”... - maybe, maybe not. It’s not my call. I can perhaps make contributions and suggestions to the author of the play, but it’s from the perspective of an actor not the script writer.


...“At this rate Earth will be so over-populated by 2100, even by 2050, its air, water, and climate so ravaged that maybe it will be uninhabitable.”... - Not a chance. Technologies already exist which could resolve each of those issues virtually over-night. They aren’t being released because the people who control them have decided to instead drastically reduce the population of the planet. So, either those plans will be carried through to fruition or the technologies will be released. Given the choice, I’d prefer the second option. The only way I can see that happening, however, is for the current power elite to be overthrown AND replaced by a global form of governance under the direct control of the people. Anything short of that would just be a case of “Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.”


“...I don't see anyone inside the current political method rising through the ranks to initiate and enforce the sweeping changes we want to see in the world. TPTB won't allow it.”... No, they will not. The only solution I can see is to start an entirely new system at a grassroots level in parallel to the existing system, with the eventual goal of supplanting it. The existing system is rotten to the core and well beyond any possibility of being fixed. It needs to be replaced.


“...is there any way we can effectively, fundamentally, free ourselves and save ourselves, and our civilization?”... I’d rephrase the question to something on the order of, “Can the problems currently facing humanity and the planet on which we live be solved.” I certainly believe they can. To be honest, I don’t even think it would be all that difficult. All that would be needed is a slight shift in consciousness such that a general agreement could be reached as to what the problems are and what we’d collectively like instead. Something along those lines happened during the sixties. I don’t see why it couldn’t happen again.


“...if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen??”... Well, for starts, as Shezbeth once commented in response to one of my posts “That’s a pretty big if you’re swinging around.” Again, I’d rephrase the question to something like, “If I believed that the only way to save the species was to eliminate 90% of the population, would I agree to the culling?” Yes, but only as an absolute last resort and we are by no means there yet.

[Dennis Leahy]

I have been feeling down recently. Nothing seems to change, nothing ever seems to get better. ...
The present regime and the Powers That Be cling on. I do not believe they will ever change, nor relinquish their hold on this planet.
...

So the terrible question. I ask you all this terrible question: For the benefit of our species, and the very survival of Earth itself, the world MUST change, and it must change profoundly, and soon. But if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen??

...

I see it as kind of an onion skin: at the individual/interpersonal level (the core of the onion), we do have the power to "make things better." I see what you're expressing as several onions layers out, maybe the outermost layer, and that layer is controlled by psychopathic (human) monsters. At that level, nothing is getting better. The people that want things to get better have no power to make things better at that level, and have no idea how to even affect that level. People that care very much and really want that outer onion skin layer to get better are in no position to do anything.

No (positive) change happens at the outermost level (planetary) because the people that control that level have things set up just the way they want them. They don't want change.

All the jobs for presidents and prime ministers, congresspersons and members of parliament, are all taken. Worse, waiting in the wings, to be funneled into positions of power next, are even more sociopathic/psychopathic hell-hounds chomping at the bit for their turn at planetary-level malice and greed. Those hell-hounds will be the next group of monsters in power, and the next, and the next...ad infinitum.

The only way off the merry-go-round is for "ordinary people" to take over all positions of governance. (It's not impossible, but it would probably be the hardest thing we ever do.)

The only way to take over all positions of governance is to dismiss all officeholders simultaneously, and rewrite the election laws and procedures to keep the hellhounds (lackeys of the militarist-corporatist-bankster Elite) from even being able to run for office. If this step does not occur, any advance made by "ordinary people" will immediately be followed by the lackeys of the Elite sliding right back into power (as they have done throughout history, after pretty much every regime change in history.)

Of course, my ears perked up when you used the term "reset button" in your title, as I have been trying to ignite a movement by that same name - aimed at citizens taking control away from the elite.

[Wind]

I have understood and felt that we are heading towards something and it's the point of no return. The current system as it is cannot sustain itself for much longer, I'd give it a few years. Less than ten, at max. Something's got to give. If humans collectively won't change their ways and very soon then the decision will be made for us, I see nature as the one which acts as the balancer. Will humans be forced to change? I'm not sure, but it sure seems that way. I like to see myself as a realist these days after being disillusioned for so many times, but I'm certainly not a pessimist.

I have often despaired when it comes to the current state of the world, but yet I cannot lose my hope, because to me losing hope is the same thing as losing the will to live. Which has happened to me several times, which lead to a greater understanding and acceptance. I wish nothing more than a complete change and I do think that there is a evolution of consciousness happening as we speak. Humans are becoming more aware as each day passes even though many are still living in the illusion. There has been much wrongdoing for millenias and a price must be paid, and especially those who have been responsible will be eventually held accountable. It is said that it will get worse before it gets better and it may be so. However, nothing is ever truly lost and I truly think that we will make it and witness something magnificent.

From Ang Stoic, or Cosmic Dancer, an astrologer I've been enjoying reading recently on Facebook:
http://angstoic.com/2016/05/week-ahead-may-1-8/
http://angstoic.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/TAUR.png

...open up and say "aaahh f*ck, not that again!...
A rare week, which sees 5 planets retrograde (☿, ♂, ♃, ♄, ♅, ♇), and 5 in earth signs, a very grounding Taurus New Moon (Friday, 6 Apr), and Saturn in Sagittarius holding any inklings of any joy (♀, ♃, ♆) to ransom, let’s not act so surprised when every time we check the rear-view mirror it appears like we’re actually moving backwards rather than making any progress on this glorious life journey.

That’s right, with these planetary conditions, it appears like objects, places, folks we have passed anytime in the past 3 weeks to the past 3 years are actually moving towards us.

Besides this, the constrictive, frustrating Mars/Saturn collusion between 7° and 15° Sagittarius (both ℞), now squared by Neptune, makes it feel as if we’re skidding, both feet firmly on the brakes upon a greasy, sliding surface that shows no clear sign of where we’ll end up.

Have we hit a wall?

There is much, much uncertainty growing, and with this uncertainty come efforts that are not exactly settling. Much as we try, the only certainty that many of us have is that a bitter thing cannot be made sweet. We can try to sugar-coat it but the realization is, anyway you fake it, long as you continue to take it, the poison cannot be changed into nectar.
http://angstoic.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/1916548_984541918266357_3707105921013851437_n-768x727.jpg
This week, accentuated by the NEW MOON, an intensely strong pull is dragging us back toward the past and its associated toxic ‘karmic’ situations (☊/♇). Despite the emerging new shift in consciousness (♅/♇), we wonder how on earth we will ever reach for the stars when our attachments to this earth keep holding us down. Seems like a desperate, oppressive pull to hold us down to people, things, ideas, contracts and agreements that either won’t go away, or we still feel some obligation to honour and defend (♂/♄).

With all this retrograde activity, the past recurs as a series of upsets, regrets, disappointments, broken or reneged agreements that we just know have ceased to serve us, and yet we somehow wish to make amends or repairs.

We wish to heal the planet, make our nation proud and make our country great again. So many promises being made, yet in the deepest sense and with much consternation, rather than feel any real comfort or security, the conscious human of today suspects that all is far from safe and steady. Our relentless, unshakable attachment to the past only serves to make us feel more and more miserable and uncertain.

And why?

Oh, could it be that in all the fervour to change the outside, the exterior, the others we neglect the on thing we can actually do something about?

Nahh… [what’s he talking about??]

In the next few weeks, as we stubbornly continue to devote our time and dwindling resources towards trying to restore something that was largely built upon an illusion or a lie, we seem like marching slowly, backwards, through marshy swampland, regressing into a grave danger of being left drained, sapped, depleted of anything of substance that we have to stand on (♄/♆).

We need to totally overcome any attachment to this past dream if we can make any progress. Both our personal, and collective evolution depends on it entirely.

Yet, for the moment, the allure of the thinly sugar-coated euphemisms being applied to everything we do seem to be offering some temporary refuge or escape, a debilitating diversion from facing the ever-daunting truth-pill that we eventually must swallow.

A tremendous tug-o-war between the past and the future now ensues.

How we handle this struggle is a deeply personal thing. How we meet those remnants of our past that seem to haunt and hold a power over us – whether it be people or ideas with whom we have struggled for power; who seem to limit or restrict our freedom to move forward into our own evolution, is the greatest challenge of the next few weeks. There will be losses…

This week marks a new, point – a line in the sand, which we must consciously, purposely choose to cross if we are to press ahead with our inner compulsion to move forward to evolve.

How capable are you to overcome the pressure of other people?
How strong are you, in spite of feelings of oppressiveness, to break away from feeling extremely drawn to maintain those toxic connections?
Can you even see them and their debilitating effect upon you?

The assistance from Jupiter (△☉/☽), which comes to a station this week (SD 15°♍13′, May 9), as frustrated (□♄) and deflated (☍♆) as it may be, reinforces our inner need to be very careful about who we form connections with. Through our exploration into solitude, we can find strength to break away, seek out those who will truly meet our needs, and not allow the past to get in the way of fulfilling our goals.

For those who have joined me in The Cosmic Tribe, I will continue to issue regular updates & special posts such as this one on Mercury ℞ on how to deeper understand the process, and make the most challenging period. Look out for the Taurus New Moon post (midweek), and I encourage you all to join the ‘Tribe’ – maintaining grounded support through this unique evolutionary journey.

Have an amazing week,
Blessings x

Of course anyone who has a clue what goes on behind the political scene is going to be very disillusioned about real change coming from there, but I think there's a glimmer of hope with Bernie Sanders' campaign even if he doesn't get elected, and perhaps even more so if he doesn't. Young voters are really getting passionate about him telling it like it is, and I think it may actually have the seeds of a grass roots movement that could make a revolution even stronger and a lot more savvy than the one we had in the 60s.
(And astrologers are predicting another big round of cosmic aspects very favorable to another revolution on that order coming up.)

I think we nearing a crossroads and the PTB know it. Environmental degradation has reached a point where I do not foresee the earth being able to hang on much longer short of mass depopulation which will inevitably take place when the ecosystems of the world start failing (and we are seeing the advent of these failings take place now). Whether we like it or not, at the present rate, it will happen regardless whether anyone pushes any button or not. Whether any world war or financial collapse or comet hitting us or not....our (present) human civilization is unsustainable.

The answer which a lot of people like to give, is to "release" free energy. But, I do not see this happening, simply because free energy is such powerful thing that even if you try to limit it to small generators for home use, inevitably, the cat will be out of the bag quicker than you can say boo, and millions upon millions of people will start demanding much, much more.

In such a scenario, the chances of free energy being misused is going to be 100%. People will misuse free energy to get back at others whom they dislike/hate.....(or simply anyone that angers them) and well, the planet will literally blow up. With our propensity to do evil (since we are creatures of free-will), what are the chances of this not happening? 0%.

This is why the PTB has never released all those seemingly wondrous technological advances that we have so far only fantasized about. It is a valid reason in my opinion. We are capable of destroying everything, just like Atlantis and past civilizations did. And with 7 billion people around, if you released free energy, I do believe the planet will blow up - in no time at all.

And yet, our progression as humans seems to have reached a sort of standstill these days. You can see how in the past 5 years, nothing really wonderful has ever come forth technology-wise...while at the same time, our unsustainable lifestyle and demands on the environment has only gotten more and more severe.

The PTB know that the next "logical" step in our evolution is to release these technologies. But how are they going to do it? All I see now is they don't care. That is why the pillaging has increased many-fold in recent years. Something that we have discussed in some thread here - It seems like they are trying to plunder and pillage as much as possible without any care for the future. And everyone is following this example, grabbing all you can grab, take all you can, like no tomorrow. Corporations everywhere are recording record profits and more and more millionaires are being born every day. Never before in history has the "wealth" been so "great". Consumerism/materialism off the charts. But to what end, when the world as we know it WILL end? While the dumbing down (I will include political correctness and cultural marxism into this) is increasing on a massive scale - by design.

Maybe the (truly elite) PTB members have a plan to escape "off-world" like some of us speculate, so that's why they do not care?

And this is the future, there will come a time when the buck stops, and the earth's ecosystems collapse beyond repair, and mass depopulation takes place.

Perhaps then, when the number of humans have decreased to a "manageable" level, maybe....just maybe, humans may get to see free energy in their lifetime. Notice that the research into robotics/android technology is at a feverish pace. Do you honestly think all this is for the betterment of humanity? When 7 billion humans can afford to sit around doing nothing while robots do everything for us? Or is it because "they" are projecting a mass depopulation coming in the future?

Sorry if I painted such a depressing outlook, but my mind cannot compute beyond this scenario. The greatest enemy we face is ourselves. On an individual basis, it is up to each one of us to "save" ourselves.

For me, I take each day as it comes, while I watch....

[shaberon]

Hmm I would take a clean generator over an android any day. I've wanted a better energy source all my life, and have never wanted a robot. All that I want are a few fundamental changes. The End.

Maybe there are others who will bang their spoons on the table until they can live in a mech suit. I have this disturbing vision of future people floating in suspension tanks with feeding tubes in their mouths and the internet wired to their heads; you can't cause trouble and nothing bad will ever happen to you, and virtual experience will be very educational, and you won't even have to move to clean yourself.

In the ideal, no one would want anything, because everything would be abundant and complete. Of course, the preachers of "want" are everywhere. I think crime would decrease drastically if ordinary needs were fulfilled; and if someone had a lethal force stun gun made of higher tech, I'm not sure why they would use it it kill me any more than they do with conventional weapons. Narco and slavery crimes would die with a lack of demand. Needs met + moral fiber is the winning formula.

Perhaps I missed it, but I never saw where you answered the question as to how you access previous lives.
Many of us want to know. Thanking you in advance...
This is for Bill and anyone else who wants to share.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

A single undifferentiated consciousness (often referred to as God) got lonely and/or bored. So, it began dividing itself into an infinite variety of separate consciounesses. Each of these individuated consciousnesses follows a unique trajectory, interacting with other individuated consciousnesses across space and time. The overall course of each trajectory, however, follows the same general pattern of separation and return.-
Work as hard as you can to make the world a better place, realizing that it's all perfect just the way it is, including the horrible suffering that exists and your desire and work to end that suffering.

Hi Hawkwind and thanks for your thoughtful response. You bring up some pretty tricky metaphysical concepts. I've contemplated these things before, and I came to the conclusion that the only real truth to cling to is your own. None of us can claim to know exactly how close our estimate is, but one thing I'm quite sure about - and I believe this firmly - is that 'the horrible suffering that exists' on this planet, though expedient as a tool of spiritual cultivation and evolution, is definitely not essential nor even necessary.

Struggle, challenge, ordeal, and all these things, is what we use to better ourselves, gain humility, resilience, compassion, and to obtain wisdom. But torture, murder, cruelty, and destruction do not need to play a part in it. That's the deeply negative side of the human psyche run amok, and it isn't necessary for human evolution. All it does is create (and ever strengthen) karma debt, and the wheel of karmic cause and effect, which the Universe demands must be addressed and repaid. More murder and malice and death (retaliation after retaliation) generates yet more karma, and so the cycle can get stuck. This is where humanity is now. Stuck in a karmic loop that goes back millennia.

So much of Humanity is reincarnating to redress its karmic obligation to the past, but it seems that not a lot is being repaid (in order to break free and move on). It's just being added too. For example the abused can sometimes get bogged down by hatred and anger (and ego), and instead of forgiving, releasing this energy and moving on, he just becomes another abuser. It's not so much a karmic wheel anymore, but this karmic loop, repeating and repeating and repeating, and because it's 'stuck' the world is not making much progress. It doesn't need to be this way. Other races out there do not follow this pattern, have not reached their level of consciousness, compassion, awareness, wisdom, and indeed technology, having stooped to the same depths of war and misery that humanity has. It isn't necessary.



...“At this rate Earth will be so over-populated by 2100, even by 2050, its air, water, and climate so ravaged that maybe it will be uninhabitable.”... - Not a chance. Technologies already exist which could resolve each of those issues virtually over-night. They aren't being released because the people who control them have decided to instead drastically reduce the population of the planet. So, either those plans will be carried through to fruition or the technologies will be released.

I don't think they can or will reduce the population of the planet. It's been on the ticket for decades. They want to do it, they've tried to do it. But whether through mass sterilization, pandemic, false-flag 'natural' disaster, or WWIII, they cannot do it. It's not allowed. I firmly believe there are rules in place - call it a Universal Law. They cannot cull the human race, this very important school of physical incarnation. It's not something they can do. It would have happened already otherwise. It would have happened years ago. So faced with a choice of not being able to destroy us (the people), and not wanting to free us either (with truth, free-energy etc), it's all about steering the ship straight ahead, maintaining the status quo. This is their goal, their interest, their sole agenda now: for nothing to change. For as long as they can possibly get away with it, they don't want anything to change.



“...is there any way we can effectively, fundamentally, free ourselves and save ourselves, and our civilization?”... I'd rephrase the question to something on the order of, “Can the problems currently facing humanity and the planet on which we live be solved.” I certainly believe they can. To be honest, I don't even think it would be all that difficult. All that would be needed is a slight shift in consciousness such that a general agreement could be reached as to what the problems are and what we'd collectively like instead. Something along those lines happened during the sixties. I don't see why it couldn't happen again.

Completely agree. It can change, it can be fixed and made better. But it needs the awareness, consent, and will of humanity combined to make it happen.


No (positive) change happens at the outermost level (planetary) because the people that control that level have things set up just the way they want them. They don't want change.

All the jobs for presidents and prime ministers, congresspersons and members of parliament, are all taken. Worse, waiting in the wings, to be funneled into positions of power next, are even more sociopathic/psychopathic hell-hounds chomping at the bit for their turn at planetary-level malice and greed. Those hell-hounds will be the next group of monsters in power, and the next, and the next...ad infinitum.

Exactly, and I totally agree. It's interesting though isn't because somewhere in there, somewhere in the system, there has to be young politicians coming through the system that do want things to change, who in their heart of hearts want to improve things, and make a positive difference to the world. I have to believe that. Who are they, I wonder, and what happens to them? Are they identified immediately by the PTB and crushed underfoot? Are they 'set up to fail', so they never achieve office? Or are they reeled in, coerced, and controlled to become just another puppet? Perhaps it's so that many politicians had the best of intentions in the beginning, but somewhere along the line they 'fell'. There's something to be said for blackmail and honey traps, so to speak. Perhaps they're controlled this way as well.


The answer which a lot of people like to give, is to "release" free energy. But, I do not see this happening, simply because free energy is such powerful thing that even if you try to limit it to small generators for home use, inevitably, the cat will be out of the bag quicker than you can say boo, and millions upon millions of people will start demanding much, much more.

I would respectfully disagree. Greed is a defining aspect of the sociopath. Most of humanity are not sociopaths, or anything close. Most of us just want to be able to get by, have clothing, have food, and enough power and services to be comfortable, and not to worry about getting these basic things. Free energy would free up an enormous amount of our own personal energies, which we spend every day struggling to survive. In the advent of free energy, humanity may well demand more and greater truth about reality (that which it has been denied for so long), I think that is one danger the Power Elite worry about. 'If we give them this freedom, they will demand more freedom.'


In such a scenario, the chances of free energy being misused is going to be 100%. People will misuse free energy to get back at others whom they dislike/hate.....(or simply anyone that angers them) and well, the planet will literally blow up. With our propensity to do evil (since we are creatures of free-will), what are the chances of this not happening? 0%.

I have to strongly disagree there. Yes there is a lot of greed and ambition on this planet. But it's not as widespread as you think. We don't live in a Mad Max world. Most people, believe it or not, are good. They love their friends and their families and their children, and they want the best for them; they want to survive, be secure, and live in peace. Free Energy, if properly regulated, ie not just a box that sits in your basement providing free power, but something distributed widely and freely on the existing power grids, and for no charge because it is easy, abundant, and clean - that is technologically possible, and would not be dangerous.

The only reason free energy isn't out there, is because the military/industrial/corporate/ complex would lose I don't know how many billions and trillions in income. I don't think the issue is whether Free Energy can be weaponized, it's about free-energy not being able to be easily monetarized. Because they acquire so much of their profit and wealth from distributing power via fossil fuels with 'Victorian technology', at such and such an exorbitant cost, it would make no sense for them to provide something else, that does the same thing, for free. They're not about to cut off the head of the chicken that lays the golden egg. That's what the whole free energy thing comes down to IMO.

[raregem]

I have been feeling down recently. Nothing seems to change, nothing ever seems to get better. The world is stuck in a rut of just endless misery and sameness and war. When will it ever end?

The present regime and the Powers That Be cling on. I do not believe they will ever change, nor relinquish their hold on this planet. I look upon the leaders of the so called 'Free World' and I see little to no hope of progress from them. In fact I see the opposite. There's probably not been a single day in 5,000 years when a war, battle, or conflict was not happening somewhere in the world. I cannot see any downtrend to the violence. War will continue, and perhaps increase, as will restrictions on our freedom, and the suppression of the truth. As the transhumanist nightmare unravels and begins to flourish, I do not see more people waking up, I see those that are sleeping falling into an even deeper sleep.

I was listening to Cameron the other day, with regards the immigration crisis in Europe. I also heard what Merkel and Obama were saying. Later, on a different note, I listened to the diatribes of Trump and Clinton on their rallies - all because these are the so-called 'leaders', and those seeking to be leaders, of the so-called 'Free World'. Are these the wisest, most qualified, most righteous people that Earth has to offer in her time of such crisis?

I used to be amused when political elections came on TV, listening to all the rhetoric and false promises, and watching all the bright eyed, smiling supporters whooping, dancing and holding banners. Now it just makes me very tired, and very miserable. The flag-waving masses are sadly, utterly deluded still, after all the regimes and administrations, after all these years. Will they not ever learn? We they not ever figure it out? They are without awareness, and seemingly without a single iota of intelligence. Same for all the experts, commentators and pundits. Can't the people see that what we need in our leaders is honesty, peace, love, and wisdom, and a smidgeon of spiritual awareness at least? None of them have any of these things. All the sleeping masses are cheering is just another puppet of the system, a puppet replacing the previous puppet of the same system. It doesn't matter what party you support, or what colour flag you wave. There is no multi-party system. There is no democracy. Republican, democrat, socialist, liberal - whatever label you like. There is only one party, (with only superficial facets), with one philosophy, and one drive: to control, dominate, and control some more, and at all costs to sustain the status quo. What the flag-wavers are cheering, and will ultimately vote for, is for nothing to change, and for nothing to improve. For just more of the same…

The more I think (brood) about it, the more I think that there is no way, there can be no other way the world will have an opportunity to change - for humanity to at last unite and move forward in both peace and freedom - unless there's some sort of big, watershed event to remove this current system of ours. The pressing of a global reset button. For Gaia Herself perhaps to rebel against the infestation that is damaging her so gravely. Potentially something, dare I say, cataclysmic.

In order for a new world to begin, the old world must end. I ask an almost unthinkable question here. Is it insane, is it so very very wrong, to actually want this to take place? The thought horrifies me. Because I have reached the dreadful point now where I do not think there is any other way. Of course I don't want anyone to suffer, anyone to die. But without a reset, is there any other way - is there any other way at all except yet another century, or several centuries, of the so-called State subjugating, enslaving, poisoning and terrorising its own people? How much more can we take?

Minor progress here and there with articles and essays and youtube videos to educate and inform is all well and good. It's very good, but how much difference does it make? How much improvement has decades of light work and free thinking really done? Is it working? Is it helping the wider world, the WHOLE world, or just the tiny awake portion of it? We need a massive paradigm shift. The wealth of the world needs to be divided. We need disclosure, and a whole new regime of peace, fairness, and transparency. For years we have been working, hoping, visualising and meditating for this change. Perhaps we slowly shuffle forward inch by inch in global consciousness towards that eventual change. But by the time we get there, will it be too late? At this rate Earth will be so over-populated by 2100, even by 2050, its air, water, and climate so ravaged that maybe it will be uninhabitable. The progress we are making might not be quick enough.

We need sweeping changes. Now! I don't see anyone inside the current political method rising through the ranks to initiate and enforce the sweeping changes we want to see in the world. TPTB won't allow it. Can it come from someone outside then? Perhaps. But would an outside, independent force have the capacity to impose or inspire such a sweeping change? I doubt it. So what is the answer? Is there really any hope anymore? Without change, we ARE doomed. Where and how can the changes come? From Gaia? From the Universe. From ETs? Our destiny I suppose is in our own hands. But is there any way we can effectively, fundamentally, free ourselves and save ourselves, and our civilization?

So the terrible question. I ask you all this terrible question: For the benefit of our species, and the very survival of Earth itself, the world MUST change, and it must change profoundly, and soon. But if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen?? Think about it, because it may mean your life, and everything you know and hold dear.

Sorry to be on such a downer, but I'm feeling very sad about the world at the moment. More than I ever have. I would gladly give up my life (and go home) for things to change. Because I really don't want to be here anymore.

I can feel your pain as well as relate. I'm sorry it is overwhelming for you at this time.

The following video is helpful for me when I'm screaming inside to go home. Hope it helps! Much Love Star M. :luv:

I want to bump this video ..hope y'all don't mind.
It is so succinct and fully resonating to my being.
Can anyone tell me how to save it to my computer, please?

Star= I can identify with your pain and thank goodness PA has such caring and helpful thought out responses from it's members.
Perhaps, most here have this heaviness occur at some point. It is so overwhelming.
I try to get into centering with focused breathing, earth grounding or watching my persistent thinking patterns with fierceness. I can catch myself and transmute my thoughts at that point. My goal is 180 degrees...lol
At times it feels so heavy, so very heavy. I remind myself of the illusion and I am caught up in it.
I ask myself is this my reason for being?

Don't know if this helps. Just want you to know we all love you as you are and will be here for you, too.
How ever we can be ..that allows you warmth.

Star Mariner... Probability-Matrix/Probable-Future Timeline Navigator here...

Do not feel disappointed that you are seeing things exactly as they would have you see them, as though things were hopeless, and that business as usual is the only way we could possibly continue to see things play out until things got so bad that force majore finally forced people to seriously reconsider whether drastic changes were needed.

It would be difficult not to see things this way without either ignorance or else key information being made available to you that a very different future has been becoming more and more probable in recent times.

When such a shift occurs in the matrix of possible future timelines, you would almost certainly see no evidence of that in the world as it appeared around you.

The truth is because the world as it appears around you is in fact not the present moment at all, but instead various shades of the past - the present moment happens on another plane of reality where the clashes of collective intentions across all entities engaged in the reality occur and the "present" as we come to experience it is determined ahead of time.

So with all the work being done in that plane of reality, you would not see any evidence of that in physical reality around you. If you were a conscious participant in this struggle on the higher plane of reality, you would see it differently, more positively.

The fact is that many humans are unconscious participants in this struggle during their dream state and remember nothing of it aside from vaguely symbolic dreams which are interpreted far too literally, as somehow relating to physical reality directly. But instead the dreams are the physical pseudo-equivalents of what is happening on that aetheric plane since it is the only way the part of our consciousness on this physical plane can make sense of it at all.

Shifting to becoming a conscious participant is a part of the awakening process but one that many souls may pause at going through with as it is a lot for the soul to handle, to come to understand the real struggles occurring constantly behind the veils of reality, it is enough to break someone.

But if one can get through that dark rite of the soul then they will emerge alike a phoenix stronger for having undergone the transition, and suddenly ready to play a much more potent role in restoring the timeline together with the rest of those already having shifted to consciously doing so.

Do not believe the naysayers that take highly pessimistic viewpoints to the state of the reality as you see it, even if they argue that they are being realistic while others are being blindly optimistic. This is not the same thing as that disinformation campaign that had been launched during our darkest years (roughly the past decade) when we would have been made to sit idly by while help came from some benevolent outside force.

This is not that at all.

This is the collective of those actively participating in the resistance to our reality proceeding down one of the darker timelines still remaining on the probability map, for we have traveled to those futures with our spirit bodies and seen that those timelines have presented no real benefits to any entities at all, even the ones that are most directly responsible for leading us that way.

They had been falsely informed by those above them, and they by those above them, and so on and so forth until you get to the very "top" (or really the very bottom), the heart of darkness that wants only the exact opposite of ascension to be the case for the inhabitants of the reality that it perceives around it. The original duality, the fallen angel....

We are in the hands of the fooled, no more, no less.

They seem to respond best to crisp logic, those who will listen to reason at all. The rest, they are mad, and those who are not mad should not seek to join in the fate of those who are too far gone... there are many timelines which remain where there will be a great divergence of soul groups... those still with a soul from those having relinquished their own with no desire to regain them.

The future timelines for the soulless should be wished upon no entity. It is within the reach of the empathic souled to reach a hand back to those on the fence and try and sway them to ensure yet a better timeline is the one we achieve, the one where the formed collective consciousness is that much larger..

With enough empathy generated as a part of this process, total soul reunification is still possible and we can once and for all move on from repeating time loops caused by the artificial creation of 4D experiential reality (which leads nowhere...). It is the abyss.

Now look at everything you see around you as it is happening, tracing the real reasons behind all things back in time, further and further and further as far as you can go. All these things began with babies, that are not born evil... you do not blame the 1 day old baby as it is already being taught in the ways of its "family", or the 2 day old, or 1 year old, or 2 year old... when shall the blame begin?

All evil is a result of those who would be fooled by the original darkness having been so fooled. And then their pride causing them to cling to their behaviors, unable to admit they had been so fooled, most often as children too young to know any better.

No deus ex machina in their life ever appeared to cause them a revelation, to change their ways..

And so, the real pressure must be placed simply to go no further in such evil ways.
And tomorrow, the same, and so forth.

What entities are too far gone to be saved? This process will make it easy to find out. And the process is already well, well underway.

History will not unfold as the doctored religious texts will have had prophesied.

It will unfold as the much more ancient legends had instead symbolized. The legends that tell a tale of history repeating itself over and over again, until one day, finally the key to breaking out of the time loops is discovered, and the exodus back to Avalon finally takes place.

Be cheerful instead that such an exodus has recently become our most probable future.

...I've contemplated these things before, and I came to the conclusion that the only real truth to cling to is your own. None of us can claim to know exactly how close our estimate is, but one thing I'm quite sure about - and I believe this firmly - is that 'the horrible suffering that exists' on this planet, though expedient as a tool of spiritual cultivation and evolution, is definitely not essential nor even necessary. ...

You can’t really know what it’s like to swim in the ocean by reading books on the subject or watching other people do it. You discover what it’s like by jumping in. At which point you know exactly what it’s like, but you still can’t communicate the experience to anyone else in any meaningful way. There have been, however, some rare beings (Christ and Buddha, for example) who became so fully immersed in the water that any separation from it dissolved. Such beings are no longer making estimates of truth, they ARE THE TRUTH. Until and unless we reach the same state, however, our understanding of that truth is only an approximation.

As for suffering not being necessary for spiritual growth, it appears as though the universe disagrees. Again, to paraphrase Ram Dass- once we discover where we want to go (back to union with universal consciousness/God), all we want is to get rid of the things which keep us separate (greed, lust, hate, sloth, etc.). Well, what better motivation for ridding ourselves of such things than to incarnate into a world full of them and their consequences? I can only speak from my own experience, but seeing first hand the suffering wrought by unchecked corporate greed has certainly reduced any desire I may have had to build an empire of my own. It also did so on a deep enough level that at least part of that distaste will, I believe, stick with me at a subconscious level through subsequent incarnations.



...More murder and malice and death (retaliation after retaliation) generates yet more karma, and so the cycle can get stuck. ...

Which is why I guess Christ suggested turning the other cheek and Buddha suggested the eightfold path.


...It's not so much a karmic wheel anymore, but this karmic loop, repeating and repeating and repeating, and because it's 'stuck' the world is not making much progress. ...

At least from my current level of understanding, the physical universe is a manifestation of a single consciousness. From the perspective of that consciousness, time and space (at least as they apply to the physical universe) are abstractions. They exist only from the perspective(s) of consciousness incarnate within that universe; more or less characters in a dream examining the nature of the dream they find themselves in. From the perspective of the dreamer, the world isn’t making any progress and is, in fact, entirely illusory in nature. From the perspective of this particular character in this particular dream at this particular time and place, however, it seems as though the world is approaching some sort of cataclysmic end, (a dis-illusion as it were). From the perspective of the dreamer, this is merely an awakening. From the perspective of the characters in the dream, their world is literally coming apart. To the extent that we continue to identify with our individuated, egoic consciousness we suffer. To the extent that we identify with the unified consciousness underlying individuated consciousnesses as our true nature, we are free from suffering.


...They cannot cull the human race, this very important school of physical incarnation. It's not something they can do. ...

I guess we’ll find out soon enough, because one way or another something’s got to give.


...somewhere in there, somewhere in the system, there has to be young politicians coming through the system that do want things to change, who in their heart of hearts want to improve things, and make a positive difference to the world. I have to believe that. Who are they, I wonder, and what happens to them? Are they identified immediately by the PTB and crushed underfoot? Are they 'set up to fail', so they never achieve office?

Perhaps it's so that many politicians had the best of intentions in the beginning, but somewhere along the line they 'fell'. There's something to be said for blackmail and honey traps, so to speak. Perhaps they're controlled this way as well. ...
Read the Protocols of the learned elders of Zion. It lays out exactly how corrupt politicians are put into positions of power and how non-corrupt ones are removed. Basically, control the media and use it to control public opinion. Support politicians who are willing to tow the line, using blackmail and bribery as needed. Undermine politicians who aren't willing to kowtow.


...I would respectfully disagree. Greed is a defining aspect of the sociopath. Most of humanity are not sociopaths, or anything close. Most of us just want to be able to get by, have clothing, have food, and enough power and services to be comfortable, and not to worry about getting these basic things. Free energy would free up an enormous amount of our own personal energies, which we spend every day struggling to survive.

'If we give them this freedom, they will demand more freedom.' ...
Greed is a defining characteristic of people. Sociopaths exhibit this characteristic to a greater degree, but we all have it to one degree or another. People who are struggling to survive tend to only be concerned with basic survival needs. Once those needs are met, however, most people want more. Free energy would indeed alleviate the struggle to survive, but I’d have to agree with xeon, it would also carry with it risks. Free energy also implies unlimited energy, which in turn implies unlimited power. Tesla said he could split the Earth in two, and that was over 100 years ago. Personally, I’d rather that kind of power be kept out of irresponsible hands. Also, if free energy ever does get released to the general public, there would in very short order be no Power Elite. Something they aren’t real keen on seeing happen.

Well, what better motivation for ridding ourselves of such things than to incarnate into a world full of them and their consequences? ...

I agree, suffering is of course a necessary part of spiritual growth - the survival of the fittest, the conquering of personal challenges and fears, in rising above them all for forward progression to take place, and thus personal evolution - but it only has a certain degree of effectiveness. The lower astral realms are full of damaged and inert souls where negative, regressive activities, blown out of all proportion, has not progressed them one iota.

What I was getting at was, these 'suffering experiences', and the environment in which humanity works through these suffering experiences, needn't be so ignorant, dark, and brutal. War, abuse, torture, murder, rape, persecution and just general wanton violence is not, and never has been, a prerequisite for evolution - for any species. Ever. If it were, they would be vaunted and widely cherished tools across the Universe, through which everyone can benefit and eventually enjoy, knowing the rewards. The path of spiritual development is indeed about ridding ourselves of the things that keep us separate, as you say, but the way hence need not be so vicious, and so long.

I don't fault Universal Law, just Mankind - it's free will run amok. It inflicts all this crap on itself, and all it does, I repeat, is instil a hopeless, endless incarnation cycle of repeating karmic effects. History shows this. Mankind has been at war with itself since first he picked up a club or a rock to beat his neighbour on the head, thousands of years ago. What evolution has he made in all these millennia? He has learned to make bigger clubs, and find harder rocks, and still he beats his neighbour on the head. This is not progression, this is the wheel of karma that just keeps on spinning, and it leads nowhere except more and more needless suffering.

The action of violence in of itself is not progression or growth. It proves nothing, serves nothing, and solves nothing. The only jump in evolution it will and can ever serve to humanity is the realisation, one day, that it isn't necessary. When Man throws down his weapons, that will enact an evolutionary transition, ending the loop at long last. Then really big changes (and progression) can happen, and bigger and bigger evolutionary jumps! But as long as the human psyche remains wholly ignorant of spiritual reality, or even basic fundamental truths such as karma, he probably will never break out of the abused/abuser pattern.

I understand what you're saying and partly agree. But if God is dreaming up the Universe, and everything in it is a dream, then it's not just our 'physical reality' that is an illusion, is it. If there is another 'greater' layer of reality above us, then it must also be an illusion, because there must also be another 'even greater' layer of reality above it. And all the other dimensions must in fact also be illusions. The Spirit realm is therefore another type of illusion. Even the highest angelic spheres of reality are different facets of dream and illusion. Etc. Perhaps God himself/herself/itself is a dream, a dream of something greater, further, higher, than anything we can imagine: an over-God, a Super-God - which is itself just another dream/illusion of something beyond even that... and so it goes on. You really can go on forever, but you can never get very far with that idea. The truth as I personally see It? All that reality really is is dimensions (possibly an infinite number) each vibrating at a different rate. That's it. And we are each an individuated 'consciousness', sliding through these dimensions, from one grade to the next. But no one of these dimensions (even this slow, dark one) is any less 'real' than another.

'Reality as an illusion' as an idea, is only useful when one comes to the realisation that there is something else beyond it, and above it.

This reality is a thick, dense, slowly vibrating physical incarnation matrix, and it is perhaps the lowest and deepest form of separation there is. But it's a dimension, therefore a slice of a great reality, a part of the greater whole. But it's still reality, one just as valid as any other - especially to us who are stuck here! Bottom line, metaphysics is great as a thought experiment. But we only have third dimensional tools (the ability to only think with a three dimensional brain, which itself only has three dimensional 'reality' as a frame of reference), so we can never really grasp the big picture. This is reality, because it's the only reality we know while we're here.


Read the Protocols of the learned elders of Zion. It lays out exactly how corrupt politicians are put into positions of power and how non-corrupt ones are removed. Basically, control the media and use it to control public opinion. Support politicians who are willing to tow the line, using blackmail and bribery as needed. Undermine politicians who aren't willing to kowtow.

Exactly. This is why we're in the state we're in. The powers that be, the ultimate high-end of the power elite who pull all the strings, don't want things to change. They love the status quo.


Greed is a defining characteristic of people. Sociopaths exhibit this characteristic to a greater degree, but we all have it to one degree or another. People who are struggling to survive tend to only be concerned with basic survival needs. Once those needs are met, however, most people want more. Free energy would indeed alleviate the struggle to survive, but I'd have to agree with xeon, it would also carry with it risks. Free energy also implies unlimited energy, which in turn implies unlimited power. Tesla said he could split the Earth in two, and that was over 100 years ago. Personally, I'd rather that kind of power be kept out of irresponsible hands. Also, if free energy ever does get released to the general public, there would in very short order be no Power Elite. Something they aren't real keen on seeing happen.

I understand where you're coming from. But they could have kept us all on steam, gas lamps, and coal-burning stoves from 100+ years ago. But we were given electricity, a world-changing new technology. What's more, not long after that, we were given a potentially world-breaking super-technology: atomic power. Of course nuclear energy can be dangerous, a real threat to the Earth, and all of us, when mishandled. But even this terrible danger was not a concern to the elite. Their only concern was how do energy companies benefit? How much profit can be made? Tons of it, as it turns out. I do not believe they fear Free Energy due to any potential harm it might do to us or this planet. Not for a minute. They do not give a jacks**t about us, the Earth, nor anything...but profit. 'Unlimited Power' they would have a handle on if need be, by regulating it carefully (like nuclear) so it could not be abused, either commercially or privately. The only reason it hasn't been rolled out is simply, purely, down to the fact that Free Energy, by definition of it being free, cannot be monetarized. There is no profit in it, certainly none that would come anywhere close to toppling the huge revenues they currently enjoy from exploiting fossil fuels.

This song I think reflect the same ideas as in the wonderful video posted by justintime2learn......


The Wanderers by Lacy J Dalton

Across the trackless wastes of space and time
Down through the ages we have come
The living river that our spirits ride
A shinging bridge from sun to sun

Beyond the broad expanses of the galaxies
The ancient heavens brightly burn
Ans spanning lightyears we have crossed the cosmoc seas
Through countless lifetimes we've returned

We are the Wanderers
Travelling from stqr to distant star
Purposely forgetting what ew were and who we are
Becoming one of you
As we were destined to
To bring the light ro you
We are the wanderers

Down through unnumbered ages
Through currents vast and deep
First a whisper then a roaring
We come to wake you from your sleep

From far beyond the reaches of the brightest stars
The sacred circle was begun
The living words we sing are part of what we are
In everything and everyone

We are the wanderers etc

Traveling the endless universe
Awakening your magic with our music and our verse
We are the Wanderes

I would love to share the music but can only find half of the song on youtube and have forgotten how to post it.

Hi again Star Mariner. For starts I want to be clear that I’m in no way claiming that my beliefs are better or more enlightened or closer to the truth than yours. I’m just trying to relate my experience of the truth, particularly the aspects of my experience which don’t seem to correlate with yours. My intention is not to get caught in any kind debate as to which of our views is more valid or closer to THE TRUTH. I only want to share my experience and my truth in hopes that by comparing notes we can together each reach a better approximation of THE TRUTH.


... What I was getting at was, these 'suffering experiences', and the environment in which humanity works through these suffering experiences, needn't be so ignorant, dark, and brutal. ...

No, they don’t. There are an infinite number of paths up the mountain. Some are a good deal less arduous than others. For whatever reason some of us appear to have taken on the North Face of the Matterhorn rather than Horni Ridge.

For some, I imagine, incarnation here is an opportunity to burn off past karma. Vlad the Impaler and Ivan the Terrible are likely to be paying off karmic debts over thousands of incarnations. Some people, Stephan Fry for example, hold the suffering of innocents up as proof that God either doesn’t exist or is sadistic. Looked at from the perspective of that single incarnation it might seem so, but if we could see every incarnation of that soul, I wonder if we would arrive at the same judgement.

Some others, I imagine, have incarnated here more as a means to help alleviate the suffering of others, rather than to reduce their own karmic debt. For such souls seeing the absolute horror that human beings inflict on each other and the planet is at times nearly unbearable. At such times, reaching out to others along similar paths for moral support, (as you have done) is about the best we can do.

Bottom line for me though is always that the universe is both intelligent and responsive. It no doubt has a better idea of where it wants to go and how to best get there than I possibly can from my far more limited perspective. So, do what good you can, as best you can from your current level of understanding, and trust that (whether or not it is clear to us) the universe is unfolding as it should.


... This reality is a thick, dense, slowly vibrating physical incarnation matrix, and it is perhaps the lowest and deepest form of separation there is. But it's a dimension, therefore a slice of a great reality, a part of the greater whole. But it's still reality, one just as valid as any other - especially to us who are stuck here!

But we only have third dimensional tools (the ability to only think with a three dimensional brain, which itself only has three dimensional 'reality' as a frame of reference), so we can never really grasp the big picture. This is reality, because it's the only reality we know while we're here. ...

From the perspective of a consciousness incarnate on this plane of existence, yes- the 3D state we experience on a day to day basis is reality. There are, however, tools we can develop while in this state which can help us get unstuck from here. According to most of the spiritual traditions I’ve studied, yes, getting unstuck from this plane only gets us to the astral planes. Getting unstuck from there gets us to the causal plane, and getting unstuck from there finally gets us back to union with Source. I can’t say that any stage along that path is any more valid or real than any other. I can, however, say that the few times I’ve touched those places instilled in me a profound sense of at long last being home and initiated my ongoing efforts to clear away whatever is preventing me from being able to stay there.

[janette]

Star mariner I can absolutely relate to what you are saying and feeling. I feel the same thing every waking minute and it gets harder every day and it seems never ending. Sometimes I think if I didn't have a family to keep me on this earth I'd of been long gone but then again the fact that you,i and the majority of people on this forum are reading your words means we really are all on this big blue ball for a darn good reason. You are MEANT to be where you are right now however **** it feels . Yes the world is mental(i could expand on that but you get my drift ) but we HAVE to go through all this crap,we have to be pushed to our limits or else we can never break through to the other side where freedom is in our midst 😊

[Praxis]

I do not really have much to give. The answer to your first question depends on what mood im feeling at the present time. Many times, and much to my dismay, I feel the urge to wipe it away because of all the things you mention. The people who say they believe in freedom and peace but not actually at all. They want violence and control for anything they dont identify with.

In a book called the Crystal Shard by R A Salvatore( a fantasy author) in the Drizzt Do Urden series, there is a group called the wailing friars. And they believe the more suffering they experience for themselves the less suffering there is for the rest of the world. Maybe that is what earth is. A galatic(universal?) wailing facility to suck of the zero sum that is suffering.

But what I can give you is this g5qe6fAbug0

If you feel like you do, we need you here to help even if it is painful to suffer through. The problem is the people who dont suffer from this place and think everything is dandy.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Well said my friend, that's exactly my position too. I don't even much like the term 'debate', as it tends always to be loaded with the notion of 'sides', one side contesting an argument with another side. I firmly believe we can learn a great deal from each other - each of us on this thread. There certainly are no sides, nor really one truth. I much prefer the word 'chat' to debate, and in our case here merely sharing our grasp, our knowledge, and collected experience. This is definitely the best path to gaining wisdom. Because all I want to do is gain wisdom, and a better understanding of things - whilst also fully taking into account that my present understanding (insight, and belief-system) is not, and cannot, be fixed. It is variable and ever moving. Always moving forward and changing. Because if God is infinite, and God is Wisdom and Knowledge and Love etc, then Wisdom, Knowledge and Love is infinite also. And thus the pursuit of them is infinite.


No, they don't. There are an infinite number of paths up the mountain. Some are a good deal less arduous than others. For whatever reason some of us appear to have taken on the North Face of the Matterhorn rather than Horni Ridge.

Indeed. To wax metaphorical, some have made a choice to tackle that north face, perhaps others, due to karma, have no choice but to tackle it. Others I feel have completely lost their way in the storm, and cannot see that there is a better, smoother, clearer way to the top.


For some, I imagine, incarnation here is an opportunity to burn off past karma. Vlad the Impaler and Ivan the Terrible are likely to be paying off karmic debts over thousands of incarnations.

It is interesting, and I often wonder about these sorts of souls. Where do they end up? Is it possible that a soul can become so dysfunctional and damaged that any hope of salvation is impossible? I don't think impossible - but I do believe the choice to redeem lies with the individual soul. They will only reincarnate to pay off karma if they choose to do so. If they choose not to, then of course, they will stay wherever they are on the lower astral plane and never obtain a higher level. But the innate push to progress in order to reach a higher, better level, is within every soul no matter how dark. But the first step lies with confronting that karma. Even if it takes an eon to make that step, to find the light, it is always available to every soul.


Stephan Fry for example, hold the suffering of innocents up as proof that God either doesn't exist or is sadistic.

Is that what he believes? Stephen Fry is a national treasure. But what a shame to believe so simplistically as that, from such a smart guy as well. The transgressions of Man against Man is not God's fault, but Man's! Like you say, it would be very easy to come to that interpretation (and many many other distortions) when life is viewed through the singular lens of 'you only live one life'. What a completely stupid Universe, and what a complete failure creation would be, if you only got to live one life, one experience in only one point in time (and space) in order to carve out your (seemingly infinite) path to wisdom, humility, compassion, and everything else required for the soul's expansion and fortification as it climbs back to source. It perplexes and frustrates me that such backward thinking still exists in this day and age!


According to most of the spiritual traditions I've studied, yes, getting unstuck from this plane only gets us to the astral planes. Getting unstuck from there gets us to the causal plane, and getting unstuck from there finally gets us back to union with Source. I can't say that any stage along that path is any more valid or real than any other. I can, however, say that the few times I've touched those places instilled in me a profound sense of at long last being home and initiated my ongoing efforts to clear away whatever is preventing me from being able to stay there.

I'd definitely go along with that. I think karma plays possibly the foremost role in our continuing to incarnate here, and to some extent getting stuck. And I don't believe it's some Universal 'force' pushing us constantly back to earth. I just do not buy the whole 'prison planet' hypothesis. I think it's more ourselves compelling ourselves to come back here, because on the other side we know (when we're in that higher state of multi-dimensional consciousness) that being here we are presented with an opportunity to learn all our lessons in the quickest and most effective way. Because of the 'mixing pot' nature of earthly incarnation, there is the widest available blend of experience, particularly negative, to work out our karmic issues. We come back because we need to. Like you said, my goal is to simply do the best I can, with the hope that one day there will be no need to come back again. However, not everyone here is here to work out karma. Some are here (from across the Universe) by choice to help. If I am one, I plan one day, once safely back in the higher realms, to have some harsh words with myself...


Star mariner I can absolutely relate to what you are saying and feeling. I feel the same thing every waking minute and it gets harder every day and it seems never ending.

Absolutely, there's always a reason for everything. There really is no such thing as chance, accident, or coincidence. Our being here is not a cosmic fluke (or joke, though it seems to feel like that sometimes!) We are all definitely here for a reason, and we knew and understood that reason (and the plan) before we came into these lives. I try to keep in mind all the time that the best and simplest philosophy to have is to just 'do one's best'. No one can ask any more of us. And also to remember that this life, no matter how tiring, mundane, or harrowing, is just a wink of an eye, one tiny, infinitely brief snapshot, of our huge, multi-dimensional, and immortal existence. And what's more, in the here and now, there's countless millions out there far, far worse off than us, who would swap places with us in a heartbeat. Always look on the bright side of life!

Just some observations.

People draw lines starting at one point and extending in one direction like this:

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn111/Mjr_gamer/Line1_zpsefuxzrdk.jpg

In nature, however, lines tend to extend in both directions (dark gives rise to light and high gives rise to low), like this:

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn111/Mjr_gamer/Line2_zpsriypleei.jpg

Also, the canvas upon which the universe paints appears to be non-euclidean, ie- it turns in on itself, like this:

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn111/Mjr_gamer/moibus_zpszrdgkon6.jpg

A convenient short hand for that concept might look something like this:
http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn111/Mjr_gamer/Infinity_zpsopl14d0s.jpg

Add to that the concept of change, which can be represented as motion or spin and you get something like this:

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g369/Ryan_Onessence/dualtorus2.gif

Simplify that back to a 2D symbol and you get this:

gNU07__3E4g

What I take from this is something like this: In order for the manifest universe to exist the formless became the formed. God without attributes, became God with attributes. The zero became the one and the one became the many. Since this transformation gave rise to time, space and everything in it, the unmanifest itself must exist beyond time and space. That is, it is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, everywhere and nowhere, everywhen and nowhen. From the perspective of that consciousness everything that has happened and everything that will happen exists in the now.

In order for the manifest universe to exist, that consciousness must have created individuated sparks of itself and set them in motion, some away from itself and an equal number returning to itself. Those on an outward trajectory, greater separation, pursue the path of power, service toward self. Those on an inward trajectory, greater union, pursue the path of love, service toward others (actually, I prefer the term service toward all). It’s still all ultimately one consciousness observing itself from an infinite number of perspectives.

So, do some souls spiral into darkness so far as to become irredeemable? Doubtful, I think. In that such a trajectory would be unidirectional, which doesn’t correlate with my observations as to the nature of the universe and how it functions.

Can you or I halt the world at large’s continued descent into darkness? Not likely, but it’s certainly worth a try. For starts, the universe does have a sense of humor and enjoys a good laugh. The idea that you or I is going to alter the course of universal laws or the cosmic cycle of rising and falling one iota is ludicrous. Still, those cycles go through their motion as the result of the collective actions of individuals. My job, as I see it, in this incarnation is to open my heart and help others open theirs. If by some chance our collective contributions prove enough to tip the scales from their downward spiral, then I’ll be grateful for the opportunity to have been part of that. If not, then I’ll be grateful for the opportunity to have tried (and probably put in a requisition for a somewhat easier assignment next time around).

[transiten]

As in Michael Newtons books on reincarnation I think we choose ourselves the severity of the challenges we meet in different lifetimes; sometimes we "rest" and other times we take on heavy burdens or a mix of both and it all comes down to spiritual evolution and maturity.

[Megrubbieswet]

I have been feeling down recently. Nothing seems to change, nothing ever seems to get better. The world is stuck in a rut of just endless misery and sameness and war. When will it ever end?

The present regime and the Powers That Be cling on. I do not believe they will ever change, nor relinquish their hold on this planet. I look upon the leaders of the so called 'Free World' and I see little to no hope of progress from them. In fact I see the opposite. There's probably not been a single day in 5,000 years when a war, battle, or conflict was not happening somewhere in the world. I cannot see any downtrend to the violence. War will continue, and perhaps increase, as will restrictions on our freedom, and the suppression of the truth. As the transhumanist nightmare unravels and begins to flourish, I do not see more people waking up, I see those that are sleeping falling into an even deeper sleep.

I was listening to Cameron the other day, with regards the immigration crisis in Europe. I also heard what Merkel and Obama were saying. Later, on a different note, I listened to the diatribes of Trump and Clinton on their rallies - all because these are the so-called 'leaders', and those seeking to be leaders, of the so-called 'Free World'. Are these the wisest, most qualified, most righteous people that Earth has to offer in her time of such crisis?

I used to be amused when political elections came on TV, listening to all the rhetoric and false promises, and watching all the bright eyed, smiling supporters whooping, dancing and holding banners. Now it just makes me very tired, and very miserable. The flag-waving masses are sadly, utterly deluded still, after all the regimes and administrations, after all these years. Will they not ever learn? We they not ever figure it out? They are without awareness, and seemingly without a single iota of intelligence. Same for all the experts, commentators and pundits. Can't the people see that what we need in our leaders is honesty, peace, love, and wisdom, and a smidgeon of spiritual awareness at least? None of them have any of these things. All the sleeping masses are cheering is just another puppet of the system, a puppet replacing the previous puppet of the same system. It doesn't matter what party you support, or what colour flag you wave. There is no multi-party system. There is no democracy. Republican, democrat, socialist, liberal - whatever label you like. There is only one party, (with only superficial facets), with one philosophy, and one drive: to control, dominate, and control some more, and at all costs to sustain the status quo. What the flag-wavers are cheering, and will ultimately vote for, is for nothing to change, and for nothing to improve. For just more of the same…

The more I think (brood) about it, the more I think that there is no way, there can be no other way the world will have an opportunity to change - for humanity to at last unite and move forward in both peace and freedom - unless there's some sort of big, watershed event to remove this current system of ours. The pressing of a global reset button. For Gaia Herself perhaps to rebel against the infestation that is damaging her so gravely. Potentially something, dare I say, cataclysmic.

In order for a new world to begin, the old world must end. I ask an almost unthinkable question here. Is it insane, is it so very very wrong, to actually want this to take place? The thought horrifies me. Because I have reached the dreadful point now where I do not think there is any other way. Of course I don't want anyone to suffer, anyone to die. But without a reset, is there any other way - is there any other way at all except yet another century, or several centuries, of the so-called State subjugating, enslaving, poisoning and terrorising its own people? How much more can we take?

Minor progress here and there with articles and essays and youtube videos to educate and inform is all well and good. It's very good, but how much difference does it make? How much improvement has decades of light work and free thinking really done? Is it working? Is it helping the wider world, the WHOLE world, or just the tiny awake portion of it? We need a massive paradigm shift. The wealth of the world needs to be divided. We need disclosure, and a whole new regime of peace, fairness, and transparency. For years we have been working, hoping, visualising and meditating for this change. Perhaps we slowly shuffle forward inch by inch in global consciousness towards that eventual change. But by the time we get there, will it be too late? At this rate Earth will be so over-populated by 2100, even by 2050, its air, water, and climate so ravaged that maybe it will be uninhabitable. The progress we are making might not be quick enough.

We need sweeping changes. Now! I don't see anyone inside the current political method rising through the ranks to initiate and enforce the sweeping changes we want to see in the world. TPTB won't allow it. Can it come from someone outside then? Perhaps. But would an outside, independent force have the capacity to impose or inspire such a sweeping change? I doubt it. So what is the answer? Is there really any hope anymore? Without change, we ARE doomed. Where and how can the changes come? From Gaia? From the Universe. From ETs? Our destiny I suppose is in our own hands. But is there any way we can effectively, fundamentally, free ourselves and save ourselves, and our civilization?

So the terrible question. I ask you all this terrible question: For the benefit of our species, and the very survival of Earth itself, the world MUST change, and it must change profoundly, and soon. But if the only way this change could come about was through some sort of natural catastrophe, the reset button to wipe the slate clean by way of massive Earth-Changes, would you want it to happen?? Think about it, because it may mean your life, and everything you know and hold dear.

Sorry to be on such a downer, but I'm feeling very sad about the world at the moment. More than I ever have. I would gladly give up my life (and go home) for things to change. Because I really don't want to be here anymore.

Hey mate, my name is Elias. I am from Australia, I joined here at 16. My world started getting crushed and happened at the end of 2012.. Getting kicked out in year 9..
I was kicked out of home, suffered everyday. Hit rock bottom, saw death, suffering, junkies losing hope... My thoughts are, if NO ADVERSITY HAPPENED TO ME. NO SUFFERING, NO CHANCE TO RISE ABOVE THE DARKNESS. I wouldn't be as strong as i AM TODAY. With no grandparents, a mother suffering for years and is now gone.. Endless physical fights with people.. I have grown to appreciate life, and live in the moment.. I graduated in 2015.. And have now just finished my first trimester Of naturopathic medicine.. (Naturopathy). People have stated that the biggest enemy is our selves, humans.. It's true, i know people my age and younger that have given up and just want to be rich. I CANT HELP MY SELF BUT WANT TO HELP OTHERS. I HEAR PEOPLE SAY LIVE FOR YOURSELF AND **** OTHERS! No man no, It's our duty to save as many people as possible. So we don't sink, so there's hope for us.. I wanna carry this darkness and burden. I WANT TO RIDE THE AGES OF THE WINDS, AND THE STORM.. I want to go out with a big damn bang, to know i HAVE helped and created a change, a domino effect persay. I'm going to get recognised over here in Australia for my efforts in Naturopathy. I want to heal till I cant heal no more.. I saved my self, I got out of the destructive hole of violence... Juvenile prison was wake up for me, to go back. Make up for my sin, and rise above the darkness I was shrouded around for some time.. I'M SICK OF PEOPLE THINKING THEY'RE ENTITLED. THEY ARENT, THE WORLD DOESN'T OWE YOU ****! WE OWE IT, AND IF IT DEARLY IS MY DAMN LIFE THEN SO BE IT. I'VE CAUSED ENOUGH bad back then to go, but no.. I was given a god damn 2nd chance.. And that's why I damn changed. I no longer care for materialist things.. I just want to damn help people and get people out of that rut... All i want to think about is to get qualified and bug the **** out to America, to help people over there too. I want to get MY **** ROLLING, I DONT WANT TO WAIT RIGHT NOW.. SITTING AROUND STUDYING/WATCHING PEOPLE ON FACEBOOK TALK ****.. I want to get out to this big bad world, and actually try to put a damn dint in it.. I want to change it up, and if it's the health system, (alternative/biomedicine/mainstream/conventional... Thats my aim, but in due time.. I just dont want things to heat up too soon, I want to be there.. I dont want my efforts to be futile, although socialising and giving people advice about their lives and what to change. Comforting them too in their darkest nights, its damn enouugh for me. Just interacting with eachother and lifting them UP IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME, social exchanges are beautiful and vibrant. BUT I WANT MY abilities to heal create change/effect so others can feel it and show that what they are applying to themselves work.. And is passed down traditionally... I comfort you Star Mariner, I truly love you.. But man YOU ARE HERE... you need to reflect... The moment I realised i wanted to help people for eternity on this plane, was the moment i seriously got into Naturopathy. Although Alternative medicine is slandered by bio/conventional medicine. IT'S HUGE HERE IN AUSTRALIA, AND AMERICA... I see SURGES OF PEOPLE CHANGING, BECOMING MORE AWARE... IT MAKES ME CONTINUE, GO ON THRIVE AND BECOME THE PERSON I WANT TO BE.. To help the best I can.. TO KNOW I DIDN'T GIVE UP LIKE OTHERS, THE EXAMPLE OF CHANGE. I WANT TO STAY IN HIGH DENSE CITIES, it's where the people MOST NEED IT! Im seeing people my age, realising more and are just becoming more sharper... Like there growing and developing its such a great sight too see. Although I would love a partner/girlfriend... Its been since 2013 since ive had one.... I can see what your coming from... Thanks for your post man. THE WINDS ARE JUST PICKING UP, AND WE'RE NOT DONE YET MAN... YOU KEEP GOING, YOU KEEP THAT FIRE THAT BURNS WITHIN YOU STRONG, FOR YOU GOT A FIERCE FLAME MY MAN... AND EVERYONE ELSE ON HERE TOO, INCLUDING MYSELF!

[sheme]

I remember your enthusiasm your hope your kindness, no matter how low the vibrations get rise above it all- know you will be tested and you will triumph- so did your life parents give up everything so that you could learn and thrive through adversity? -how wonderful -how much they love you. I cannot imagine having that much strength. It is good to acknowledge the help we have all received from soul mates.

Adversity is natural.. It just hit me younger thats all. Mum was already sick and was pushing above her years, she should have been dead in 2010. But kept pushing for some insurmountable reason, the sheer will power continued for her to live on. She lived years later than predicted getting poisioned by bio, right till her her death bed on special K. (Ketamine). And pumped with sodium chloride till her last breaths, in twitching fits me holding her arm. She wanted out and knew everything was okay. And it was :) She cant believe how much we all changed, especially my self..

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Thank you Megrubbieswet for your tale. That's a startling, disturbing, and obviously traumatic life you've led. I can only add to what kirolak said: kudos for your recovery and the subsequent revelations you've had, about yourself, the world, and what life's all about. I extend my deepest respect to you for the work you're doing!
