    I have yet to say much on this valuable conversation... while the debate may appear personal it underlines something that we need to and should be able to discuss. I know I risk being seen as a fence walker when from my particular point on the reality meter I am neither right or wrong... and all I can offer in all honesty is my experiences.

    So to Chinaski, I have in moments made weather. Here is one of my experiences related here. Can I prove that to you? Not really and can I repeat that experience at will, no. It was a combination of intense emotion, circumstances and me having obtained a very high concentration of energy that moved through me in a perfect storm. Did I hurt anyone? No. Did I stop some really nasty people in their tracks? yes. Was I a participant in something greater than myself alone, yes. So it goes that if you were to ask me to prove that to you I couldn't... but it did happen.

    Now here is another one. I do continue to work every morning in consciousness as per our How to Heal the World thread, which many of us gathered around. My overriding intent is to penetrate the deepest and most extensive levels of reality I can reach. Describing in words is not easy to understand unless you are doing or have done the same. I am the self in reality and I am the self incorporating reality in me.

    So on many occasions I flowed to the NSA data mining center in Utah. What I did was observe and in my observation change the physical reality of the computer. I saw and participated in a knowing that the computers would short circuit on an overload of energy, that they were incapable and remain incapable of containing the consciousness of the data going through them. Especially if we flood them with our own energy, reversing flows. There are many, shall we call them unseen elements that are unknown to the engineers... so fires break out. Also joined in imagining rats and other wire gnawing creatures at work... imagination is a wonderful tool.

    This is what I saw yesterday. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-1...-surges?page=3 Did I have anything to do with it? Your choice, I make no claims. And do I know their are thousands of others doing the same, you bet I do.

    This is my continued mantra as we move through these times. Together we are a force, divided we fall.

    Why do I bother to write this, because I know that Carmody, jiminii, Ulli, Agape and all the others on Avalon who tell their stories about their abilities have the intent to help us all extend and reach for what we are capable of. Because it is easy for me to sense the lack of personal gain or importance in these folks, to find the common thread of "Being the Change" we want to see in the world. Emphasis is on BEING.

    This isn't meant to deride, belittle or make anyone feel smaller less capable, we all have a mission and an unique essence and ultimately we are all equally important. The continually questioning mind is as important as the one that thinks it has answers.

    Finding your SELF in context is ALL.

    There is an answer here as to why certain people have abilities and some do not and the answer I believe (after 40 yrs of experimentation, using myself as the guinea pig) lies in the brain, more explicitly-the neurons!

    To begin, Anthony Robbins used to say that it took 21 days to form a habit, yet he could not explain why. He literally did not know when asked. I was fortunate one day, as I became privy to a conversation involving a brain surgeon who was being asked questions involving brain surgery. When asked how long it took during the healing process for the neurons in the brain to heal and function again, he stated that it took 21 days for new neurons/neural pathways to develop and begin functioning. A neuron is a specialised cell which transmits electrical impulses throughout the brain and body complex.

    Consciousness/awareness is electrical in nature. Electricity also has different frequencies. It is my contention that one can tap into different frequencies, energies, etc. by having the specific intent to do so. Once your intent is clear and you have the will to do so, your brain will begin to develop neural pathways which will in the end allow you to tap into the particular frequency needed to accomplish that intent. I am speaking primarily of adding to your repertoire of abilities, such as telepathy, etc. One has to have the neurons that taps into that particular frequency. I see it as a perfectly natural human phenomenon.

    We all have the ability to "specialise" ourselves in any way we choose. It is interesting to note also to refer to Sirdipswitch's thread about obe's. Buhlman says in his books, that if you dedicate yourself to having an obe, it will take 30 days of dedication to have one. Could it be that during those 30 days that the brain is forming new neural pathways so that you become aware of leaving the body to its fullest extent? If you don't have the neurons developed to receive that information, how would you ever become aware of it?

    I understand and respect the fact that things like synchronicity, psychic revelation, and maybe to some degree telepathy are subtle, mostly subjective experiences that cannot be proven. and i'm in no hurry to "prove" them, because I've experienced this type of stuff myself, believe it or not.

    I send my best to everybody
    Hi Michael,

    This is an example of a technique I use. Books say “pick me, pick me”. I opened to ‘a’ page this morning out of a pile of about ten books on my kitchen table. It's pages 250-251, “Changes of Mind: A Holonomic Theory of the Evolution of Consciousness,” by Jenny Wade.

    “Some people have a natural proclivity that permits them certain types of access to the transcendent source of consciousness during life, reflected by characteristic EEG patterns unlike those of the general population. Others can develop access through disciplined training. Certain changes in the brain and/or electromagnetic field surrounding the body - NDE or other encounter with the Light, advanced meditation dreaming, etc. - seem to lower the threshold of accessibility. Accessing the transcendent source permits experiences unbound by Newtonian spatiotemporality, such as psi or ‘miraculous’ abilities (“mind over matter”).

    Experience of non-Newtonian realities from that source is integrated into the brain-bound consciousness. At higher stages of consciousness, progressive integration of the transcendent source in conjunction with an ego-transcending motivation changes the brain’s EEGs, entraining both hemispheres and creating slower, more orderly and harmonic energy patterns...”

    “...At the level of Unity consciousness, however, the transcendent and brain-based streams of consciousness are fully entrained, and in a way disappear altogether. The sense of other worlds vanishes, as these experiences are realized to be illusory projections, just like the separate material realms. The enlightened persons does not “go” anywhere at death because he is already (t)here immortally and eternally, though his body does not persist in the time-bound, material world.”

    I know you are not looking for outside proof. The timing of this information was not an accident. I've learned to follow through on what's presented that way more 'reveals' come my way. So my thanks for your participation in it.

    With heart,
    Paula

    Reminder: You promised me a signed copy of your book. I got me some gold coins set aside for multiply copies.

    Some people who are primed and prepped can get that extra boost to ACTIVATE their abilities to another level when they come in contact with someone who is at an advanced level. Think of it as someone passing on their abilities via Dharma to you. So if you want to improve in whatever abilities you may have a hint of or maybe do not even have that much even, hang out with those who have PROVEN abilities in that area because whatever they have may rub off on you. This can happen over the internet too.

    Note: Beware of the cons. If they are only teaching techniques and are not doing demo's or showing any kind of evidential material or information that supports their claims, then they don't have anything that's going to rub off on you to gain some level of proficiency in those abilities they are teaching. The proof is in the pudding. If they do not prove to you that they have the abilities they claim to have, then move on. That's just common sense to but all too often, some of those cons out there do have the ability to brainwash people into making them believe that they possess those abilities they claim to have. So it's very important to use much discernment in this area. Just because a so-called master or guru has a following, that doesn't mean anything unless that person SHOWS what he can do. Anyone can spout platitudes for spiritual advancement, especially in the 'information age' we live in now via the internet. All they are doing is just repeating back to you what they are reading and then putting their own spin on that material. So be careful and demand that they show you what they claim they can do... if they can't do that then find somebody else who can.

    Yes to Paula, yes to Sebastion posts above, No to both.

    Although the metaphysical, Higher Self, name it, expériences will tranform the brain, for a perception of all, and although " brain-based streams of consciousness are fully entrained, and in a way disappear altogether", which is the case, all this cannot happen if the heart centers are not cleared and trained. If the focus is not in the heart (love) and the brain to its service, the risk of entraining the brain only is very high towards mental disease or black magic.

    Train the heart, clear the heart, willfully implement love, using will and feelings, receiving and giving, willfully, and the brain will follow automatically. Your acute brain powers should be first used for the heart and love training. Very difficult to understand for very left brain rational people, very difficult indeed.

    So, Yes there is training to be, starting with the heart. You start seeing with your heart first, You keep seeing with your entrained brain second. This is the difference, in my opinion, on staying in service to others versus sinking into service to self.

    Christine's post above demonstrates it very well.

    Spiritual development automatically confers spiritual powers, good and bad, depending on the intent (will). If one doesn't see what is being talk about, one just has to pursue the spiritual training path, seeing (being empath or visionary) will come in its own time. To be humble enough to admit it is arleady far into the training path. But the untrained brain will stop you. (a trained brain here means intelligence to the service of spiritual, not the reverse Chinaski).

    This post of mine is for the Chinaskis of this world, at the beginning of the spiritual training, wanting to understand, when in fact they could only want to evolve. Understanding will come in time. It is not for the Paulas or the alike of this world who already trained their heart.

    I have not commented on this thread until now. Did any of you see me coming? lol just a little jokey...
    I think most people, who if they really thought about it, have had psychic experiences. I dont think
    you have to be "exceptional", although I'm not saying that those people don't exist either.

    I do think however, If someone does claim to be "Exceptional" with psychic abilities.
    that must require "Exceptional Proof." If not, your just pissing in the wind folks and
    preaching to the choir. Jim Jones told his followers he was exceptional and they
    literally drank the kool aid. On the other hand Uri Geller has done some amazing
    things. For me the search continues with an open mind.
    Unfortunately, proof is a sliding scale, and is relative to the observer. What is proof for one, is NOT proof for another, and visa verse. What is considered tangible proof for science is laughable to someone with first hand experience. Many truths are subjective, and cannot be proven. Mostly, the non-physical aspects,,, cannot be proven, as non physical aspects are not considered tangible, to most people.

    I have no doubt that you love from your heart. But can you prove it. To love someone is the most powerful essence you can share,,, but can it be proven. Experienced,, yes, Proven..... no...

    If one cannot use the supersensitive potentials that we carry, then one does NOT have the tools needed to properly judge proof. If you use the 'fife sense' rules, then your idea of proof will ALWAYs be limited.

    Besides, What purpose does 'proof' have anyways. I've spent most of my life, proving certain things to MYSELF, engaging my craft with a skeptics mind. How then, do I prove it to YOU,,, knowing all that I would rob you of, if you were to prove it to yourself.

    I have stayed out of this conversation too,,, for the most part.

    What Chris said,,,, We are ALL exceptionally gifted, and triumphantly amazing beings.

    Jake.
    Jake I do get where your coming from. Jake A few years ago the NY giants were
    playing the New Egland Patriots In the SuperBowl.I went into a trance at halftime
    While I was in, what I will call a "trance" I saw Eli Manning make a throw in the fourth quarter to win the game. I came out the the trance after halftime.
    And in the fourth quarter of the game was exactly the same. Eli made the
    exact same throw to the same reciever winning the game.
    Ah!! So that was YOUR fault?? That is, indeed, and exceptional experience. I love it! I wondered by what miracle that happened... Now, if you could prove something like that,, that would be exceptional, too. I wish I could prove more of the OBE stuffs... It all still happens quite randomly. I have proven it to myself. And I have been able to prove it to others, on occasion,, but I cannot claim mastery over my craft. It is best if I 'let go', and just go with it. Trying to 'dial' it all in from start to finish is quite a sophisticated undertaking, methinks.

    Wow!! I am loving the trance/Eli Manning thing. Sooo many implications. You know me, I do not believe in prophecy or predictive experiences. Only created ones. I 'believe that creation and experience happen simultaneously, and that it is a law of consciousness. I will be watching my Buffalo Bills play later... I am going to give it a try!!! (I am 0-4 for trying!!! lol..)

    Jake.
    Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. Yoda....

    Neat Jagman, I will want you on my team for my next university exam.....

    It is funny, when I think of it, how I never really wanted any psychic powers. It was not in me, never really wanted them. May be I was scared of it, maybe I was just unconsciously remembering pas times/lives where I misused it, I do not know.

    But, as time went by, I know I can feel people often (not their physical pain, but their emotional) and block it to be comfortable, however I use it to help, I know I can sometimes kind of read minds (I always Wonder if I make it up though - but it seems sometimes I don't). And I know that my own state of mind/heart does influence greatly my entourage - a service to them is to be fine within myself.

    Is it spiritual powers? I do not think so. I think it is just how we naturally are. I think that we can all feel magnetic fields of others and project our own.

    For me, the importance has always been the development of the heart (I remember very clearly deciding that I would use my brain in service to the heart, willingly, since I had the choice). It also asways has been the evolution of the soul, the most important. Not psychic powers or abilities. But, I have observe in others that they come as soul development unfold. So I bet it will be the same for me.

    In fact, right in the middle of my divorce, I was hating my husband so much that one day I suddenly realized that I could not be given any spiritual power while witholding such hate Inside me, I would be utterly destructive otherwise. I was not advance enough to have these powers, therefore, I shall not force it (by training the brain). They will come in time.

    So I decided (will) to let go, tame the hatred first, accept and love (for me and my dauhgter, one step at a time lol. not too fast god forbid lol). NOwaday I do not hate him anymore, but I know I have this shadow in me to watch, accept and deal with. One of the many.

    For those thinking the dark forces are giving us a service, in the universe, the meta meta universe, may be, but in mine, not true. I could have learn as well with working on regular problems, through love and joy. But it happened that I encountered the remnant of hatred in me, that way. So I will use the opportunity.

    Having powers or not does not make a wrinkle in my clothes, I just do not mind. But I truly dislike those stupid Knock head using their powers without the heart/love (universal love, not munchy love) component. For and Because of those, I will evolve and counteract their forces, having tamed my shadows. It could so much be done in joy though instead of torment, for the whole race on this planet.

    I think it would be interesting is we could set a time for everyone to do meditation sessions here, like once a week, for example. Granted it would be challenging to work around those different time zones each of us are in, I think such an endeavor would prove itself to be very beneficial on many different levels.

    The purpose of such an exercise as this would be for us to go into a deeper state of altered consciousness. Meditating in unison, at the same time, can help to facilitate that process and I know this to be true because I've participated in such exercises like this before and that's exactly what happened during those sessions.

    There is a saying "What one can do all can do"
    Virtually anyone can promote themselves as exceptional---rather than the exception---subtle difference.
    A mum with a new child--both amazing--the love just shines out of them.
    Every sober alcoholic or clean addict a walking miracle.

    Once when being a catalysis for healing--I placed my hands on a man's back--he had a calcified spine and was well bent over, I don't know who was more surprised, him or me, when bit by bit he straightened up.
    It only took a few minutes for him to be fully erect for the first time in years.
    I had asked for Christ to work through the hands and I felt strong unconditional love for the man as this happened.
    Now If I was so special and clever (Exceptional) I could do this at will.
    I most certainly cant.

    To be clear im not upgrading or down grading anyone--- I see God within all which is the meaning of Namaste (I greet the God within you)
    So God being within everyone and everything-- what is there to be more exceptional than the God within?

    Respect all, value all, but there is no one more exceptional than you.

    Chris
    Be kind to all life, including your own, no matter what!!

    Please tell me Flash how one would know about any spiritual powers if one didn't have the awareness of it. One can have no awareness of anything without functioning neurons/neural pathways in the brain.

    And while you are at it, tell me about the blue corona above the head and how it relates directly to your brain and your neurons/neural pathways?

    I'm all ears.....

    Greybeard, I'm with you on this one. I KNOW with absolute certainty that it is through our Higher Power/the Christ Consciousness* and His facilitator's too, that allow our Higher Self to become channels for their energy that works through us to effect not only various extraordinary super-sensible abilities but also to work miracles too -- especially in the area of healing.

    It is never just us and we are not the ones that 'do it'. We are only the instruments that they work through and nothing more.

    *Others have different names for IT.

    Conversely, there are those intelligence's out there that are aligned with either the dark side or a benign/neutral source, like some ET's, for example, that can channel through our Higher Self too. But it's never just us. They will prime and prep those whom they want to work through but we are just their containers/instruments that they work through and nothing more.

    This is an example of a technique I use. Books say “pick me, pick me”. I opened to ‘a’ page this morning out of a pile of about ten books on my kitchen table. It's pages 250-251, “Changes of Mind: A Holonomic Theory of the Evolution of Consciousness,” by Jenny Wade.

    I know you are not looking for outside proof. The timing of this information was not an accident. I've learned to follow through on what's presented that way more 'reveals' come my way. So my thanks for your participation in it.

    With heart,
    Paula

    Reminder: You promised me a signed copy. I got me some gold coins set aside for multiply copies.
    Paula, are you sneaking into my living room and looking at my bookshelf when I'm not around? Jenny Wade's book is awesome, and I have mentioned it here many times to no avail, but you... Have read and continue to read the most seminal works on my bookshelf!

    Here's a video I recorded, just for the fun of it, of a "Spinner" experiment I did one time. A few of us in another forum were trying it out so I did too. Is it showing anything extraordinary? Nope. We all possess chi energy. But showing here anyway just for the heck of it. Afterall, I did take the time to record that session so might as well get some more mileage out of it.




    Here's a good one from someone who has a lot of practice with the chi spinner. He's really good at it. He also has a link on how to make your own paper spinner.



    I think such exercises are worth practicing at wrt to working on your power of intention. For example, you can say to yourself, "Ok, spinner, stop" or you can say "Spinner, change direction" and see what happens. Try to focus your chi so that it's emanating off your hand or hands if you're using both of them like he is.

    There is an answer here as to why certain people have abilities and some do not and the answer I believe (after 40 yrs of experimentation, using myself as the guinea pig) lies in the brain, more explicitly-the neurons!

    To begin, Anthony Robbins used to say that it took 21 days to form a habit, yet he could not explain why. He literally did not know when asked. I was fortunate one day, as I became privy to a conversation involving a brain surgeon who was being asked questions involving brain surgery. When asked how long it took during the healing process for the neurons in the brain to heal and function again, he stated that it took 21 days for new neurons/neural pathways to develop and begin functioning. A neuron is a specialised cell which transmits electrical impulses throughout the brain and body complex.

    Consciousness/awareness is electrical in nature. Electricity also has different frequencies. It is my contention that one can tap into different frequencies, energies, etc. by having the specific intent to do so. Once your intent is clear and you have the will to do so, your brain will begin to develop neural pathways which will in the end allow you to tap into the particular frequency needed to accomplish that intent. I am speaking primarily of adding to your repertoire of abilities, such as telepathy, etc. One has to have the neurons that taps into that particular frequency. I see it as a perfectly natural human phenomenon.

    We all have the ability to "specialise" ourselves in any way we choose. It is interesting to note also to refer to Sirdipswitch's thread about obe's. Buhlman says in his books, that if you dedicate yourself to having an obe, it will take 30 days of dedication to have one. Could it be that during those 30 days that the brain is forming new neural pathways so that you become aware of leaving the body to its fullest extent? If you don't have the neurons developed to receive that information, how would you ever become aware of it?
    I find your post worthy of a second look. There is good stuff in here.
    Remember the dolphin thread about India? It talked about spindle neurons being the basis of higher brain function.
    These structures don't just happen by accident.

    Hi Gripreaper,

    When you mentioned Ken Wilber and Dr. David Hawkins, Post #134. I ordered Jenny Wade. I got hooked on Ken Wilber’s “The Spectrum of Consciousness,” and continued to read his material.

    I attribute David Hawkins’ works (and others) to leaving the clock world. Also, I was out to prove David Hawkins wrong that woman can’t reach levels that men can because our bodies couldn’t take on the vibratory rate that men’s bodies can. If I’ve miss quoted you, Dr. Hawkins. Sorry. It still helped me continue.

    UPDATE: Shorten post.

    why do you ask if you answer your own question in a previous post?

    Train the heart, clear the heart, willfully implement love, using will and feelings, receiving and giving, willfully, and the brain will follow automatically.

    Please tell me Flash how the brain will follow automatically, if the brain hasn't the developed neural pathways to follow "automatically"? The heart is intimately connected to the brain, the physical heart is, and its link with the electro magnetic energies of the body. It gives feedback to the brain and get feedback from it. The heart chakra, linked to the love functions, is located in the chest and does impact the physical heart, therefore giving feedback to the brain. Furthermore, part of the "heart" is also in the symbolic brain, the right hemisphere. And yes, for us, occidentals (left brainees), our right hemisphere will develop in response to the heart. See the heartmath Institute for more information on this. Now, your question is a brain question, not a heart one.

    Flash said:

    Please tell me Flash how one would know about any spiritual powers if one didn't have the awareness of it. One can have no awareness of anything without functioning neurons/neural pathways in the brain.
    Because he heard about it or has witnessed it in other and wants to use it to make a million dollars or cure his mother or get the love of his conquest, name it, you know human, that is how they know about it. This is not intimate knowing, this is the ego wanting for itself. Then they wwant the power from it. This is the danger zone. They think they have awareness of it while they don't really.
    The neuronal pathways will reorganize themselves in response to the environment and to the will. You know about this, train your heart, get the feedback loop to the brain, it will respond. Do it repetitively, the pathways will be created. You know this Sebastion, why do you ask?

    And while you are at it, tell me about the blue corona above the head and how it relates directly to your brain and your neurons/neural pathways?

    I'm all ears.....
    Since you know, why don't you tell me?

    You see, you demonstrated the power of the brain, I answered with mine, where does it lead us? In a loop? What was the intent? To build up wisdom and love? What was the will? Was it by any chance to argue that I did not know what I am speaking about?

    I will add a piece for which you can bite me, if it is your will. Spiritual awakening and developement comes from extensive training in one hand, and complete abandonment on the other hand, I presume. The neuronal pathways are not always necessary. We do not have them when we are outisde our body (OBE), or in our soul.

    Thanks Sebastion for this post.
    The 21 days process seems to be omnipresent, when it comes to create new patterns or habbits.
    Drug addicts becoming clean-the first 21 days are crucial. Alcoholics the same.
    Smokers, the first 3 weeks are the hardest and the you kind of overcome the need to smoke. I can confirm that.
    There are lots of management seminars which last for 21 days to create a new pattern.
    Also Jasmuheen's Breatharian process takes 21 days. Diets and Detox.
    You can have free subscriptions for newspapers, pay TV, cosmetic products...all for 21 days.

    Nuff said---go ahead and change or create new patterns you want in your life :-)

    Example of our natural abilities. Thanks, Kindred.

    From Kindred's thread, "Confirmed by Science: You Really Can Change Your DNA – Here’s How"

    By Carolanne Wright
    [complete article here]

    My favorite part: "The individual succeeded, as instructed, to intentionally and simultaneously unwind two of the DNA samples to different extents and leave the third unchanged. Control group volunteers who had low heart coherence were unable to alter the DNA."

    “If you believe that you are at the mercy of your genetic code, great news, you’re not. According to the science of epigenetics (the study of how environmental factors outside of DNA influence changes in gene expression), stem cells and even DNA can be altered through magnetic fields, heart coherence, positive mental states and intention. Top scientists around the world agree: genetic determinism is a flawed theory."

    Curbing the genetic victim mentality

    {snip}

    “The difference between these two is significant because this fundamental belief called genetic determinism literally means that our lives, which are defined as our physical, physiological and emotional behavioral traits, are controlled by the genetic code. This kind of belief system provides a visual picture of people being victims: If the genes control our life function, then our lives are being controlled by things outside of our ability to change them. This leads to victimization that the illnesses and diseases that run in families are propagated through the passing of genes associated with those attributes. Laboratory evidence shows this is not true.”

    Lipton’s theory is confirmed by Carlo Ventura, M.D., Ph.D., professor and researcher at the University of Bologna in Italy. Dr. Ventura has shown through lab testing that the DNA of stem cells can be altered using magnetic field frequencies.

    {snip}

    He adds that two Nobel Prize-winning scientists discovered even “nonstem adult cells can be epigenetically reprogrammed backward to a state where they can eventually give rise to neural cells, cardiac cells, skeletal muscle cells or insulin-producing cells.

    Changing DNA through intention

    According to the Institute of HeartMath in Boulder Creek, California, epigenetics encompasses far more than just DNA, our environment and life experience. After two decades of study, the researchers discovered factors like love and appreciation or anxiety and anger also influence a person’s blueprint. In one experiment, select participants were able to change DNA with positive mental states.

    An individual holding three DNA samples was directed to generate heart coherence – a beneficial state of mental, emotional and physical balance and harmony – with the aid of a HeartMath technique that utilizes heart breathing and intentional positive emotions. The individual succeeded, as instructed, to intentionally and simultaneously unwind two of the DNA samples to different extents and leave the third unchanged.

    Control group volunteers who had low heart coherence were unable to alter the DNA.

    So to Chinaski, I have in moments made weather. Here is one of my experiences related here. Can I prove that to you? Not really and can I repeat that experience at will, no. It was a combination of intense emotion, circumstances and me having obtained a very high concentration of energy that moved through me in a perfect storm. Did I hurt anyone? No. Did I stop some really nasty people in their tracks? yes. Was I a participant in something greater than myself alone, yes. So it goes that if you were to ask me to prove that to you I couldn't... but it did happen.



    Finding your SELF in context is ALL.
    i shared this experience a while back.

    Quote Posted by billyji (here)

    In my community here in Scotland we used to hold a yearly festival in our village. This was to raise funds to build our community hall and center. I was vice chairman in the community association for 12 years. We had regular meetings leading up to the festival. It had been pouring with rain non stop for 3 weeks before the festival. This was 1991. We were expecting around 1500 people to descend on our small community, The forecast was rain rain and more rain all over Scotland during and after the festival. As a sort of joke at one off the meeting i said. " Don't worry i will sort the weather" You can imagine the looks and sniggering. Yea Yea Billy.

    3 days before the festival i decided to fast and meditate for the next 3 days. Wed to Fri. For sunshine. It was August, the festival started Sat morning. On Friday as we were erecting marque's, stalls etc in the pouring rain. With comments like, This is going to be a wash out. Will we cancel.

    Sat morning arrived. It was 2hrs before opening the festival. Still raining. I went outside looking up at the grey sky and said . Ok it is time for the sun to shine.

    As we opened the gates at 10am to allow people to enter. A hole appeared in the sky above us allowing A chink of sunshine. This hole grew and we were bathed in sunshine only over our village. ALL around us about a mile outside our zone in every direction it was raining. The clouds were moving but our hole in the sky stayed with us for the 3days. People were commenting that they had traveled from all over the UK and it was raining everywhere. Apart for our tiny village. On the Monday when everyone was leaving the hole closed and the rain continued.

    I said thank you.

    My personal experience and a true experience.

    Peace
    Can i prove it. Well i did have witnesses, but was it a coincidence.

    peace
    When you express from a fearful heart in the now moment, You create a fearful future.
    When you express from a loving heart in the now moment, You create a loving future.

    Have no fear, Be aware and live your lives journey from a compassionate caring nurturing heart to manifest a compassionate caring nurturing future. Billyji

    This thread is about exceptional abilities. Exceptions are what prove the law because only if there is a principle can there be an exception. I see it as the display of what has received 51% attention and tips into a ruling in favor of "whatever" was the "norm".

    The principle I believe today is that we are unique and one and this principle gets displayed. We find a group that displays principle (any group, even just ideas) and then look for the exception.

    This is the way I think of social change. It is the individuals and then 51% accept the new norm and then there are further exceptions of proof....ongoing and fractally lawful we move between the distinctions into expansion.

    My cats are exceptional. They take the norm of cats and then exceed all expectations. So my plan is to learn from the example.

    Cats may be generally more aloof than dogs...so one cat in my life is the epitome of an exception. Tabby Tail refused all human contact for years until an injury made it possible to "catch" her and bring her inside. Tabby made all her choices and she processed a great deal of fear. She went through stages of hiding and then not hiding and finally one day, she jumped in my lap. She matured and became an exceptionally unusual cat of chosen expansion in her emotional intelligence.

    There needs to be a soft loving environment that believes in new possibilities but doesn't force the unfolding. The reason Tabby could come to that change was through exposure to me. I didn't try to force her to change but I treated her with respect and consistency. I know that I am able to do this with cats and have no desire they act like dogs. AM I able to give myself that environment of self love?

    People are very hard on one another with judgements. We create mind sets that fail us. We miss out. It's like when people refuse to have cats thinking they are unfriendly and aloof, they miss out. It's as simple as missing out on choosing the possibility that the rule will be proved by our exception. I see that cats can choose to be as effusively affectionate as dogs when one lets them become exceptional by actually interacting in a nonintrusive way.

    I was an avatar to my cat of love and acceptance. To me this is the main issue humans are grappling in. What kind of environments have we created for humanity to pop up as exceptions and then change the norm? We know enough about ourselves now to see that we must be avatars for ourselves and intentionally change our norms. But we have to deal with ourselves respectfully and create the environment where we allow ourselves more freedom and more allowing.

    How do I personally relate to human "exceptional abilities". Well, I believe that we have refused them. Expectation and judgement THAT THERE IS A CERTAIN STANDARD creating environments of oppression. This is insistence on the beliefs in the 51%.

    The sweetness of being human is that we know we are the creators of the artificial world, even if we are not sure what we may do with this artifice? We develop ways to impact the environment. Hopefully we experience our creation as loving to our goals? Is that the fun of becoming awake and aware to discern how to make a great environment for exception itself to appear??

    I say lets just stop being self oppressive first. Stop forcing these issues of becoming exceptional! The exceptional will surface. 51% in us to then create a new norm. This is what my cats taught me:

    1. There is someone who loves me enough to feed me and let me develop. I will insist on living here in this loving environment!
    2. Daily sunning, washing and stalking what is really important as I get yearly more comfortable in my skin is the way.
    3. I will let a seeming misfortune capture me and work its magic as it turns out to be the best opportunity.
    4. I will daily expect the best and disagree with substitutes.
    5. I always stay nonchalant (what some mistake as aloof) and let the process of the seasons unfold.
    6. Always stay the course being myself as exceptionally as possible.
    7. Miracles are just part of the 49% ON THE WAY TO THE 51%.
