It has been said that always having a ready supply of cactus on hand is not to be sneezed at

Not as labour intensive as carrots either as you don't have to sharpen em.
In a way, all the ruckus may have a benefit for me, I discovered cactus is better than carrots.

Hmmmmmmmmm strange comment Modwiz.

I'm a strange person. I was born blue. Umbilical cord around my neck. Should I be banned?

So, you had the blood supply to your brain cut off at a very early age. That explains a great deal!

(For anyone who might read that as an insult. Modwiz is one of the people on this forum whom I most respect and if he didn't at least get a chuckle out of the comment, I've missed my mark.)

Hey! So had my son (cord around neck -twice in fact!) and he is highly intelligent!

(Yeah I thought you'd like that, Modwiz! )

And now, we switch from the usual programme for a special message from the masters of metal, JUDAS PRIEST

Okay, I guess I 'mway out of the loop here. Could somebody kindly PM the website that Richard was referring to in his post?

Thanks!

With all due respect, the references being made about Bill being someone else in private are creating anxiety for me.

I want so much to be a part of a family and I look at so many of my elders here with respect.

I wish to learn and grow together. But I can't shake this feeling that things are a complete illusion here.

In a world full of mass deception, I truly was hoping against the odds that I had found a place where people would be real.

But now with all the accusations and secrecy, I am torn.

I honestly feel like a scared child in my dark bedroom with the blankets over my head while my parents argue and scream at each other in the next room.

I need a hug Avalon. I'm scared.

discernment is key. Instincts..we are all born with....listen carefully, and the truth will unveil itself to you. Some things, perhaps, are meant NOT to reveal themselves, to further internal growth. Just go with the flow, don't fight it. FEAR...that is what TPTB wish to instill. Be afraid, and they score more points to the board, try to not give them that advantage. Cautious and fearful have different meanings and values. Caution will protect you while fear will chip away at your soul. Be good to yourself. Choose caution.

On the other hand, it's good to acknowledge that fear. You feel it for a reason, otherwise you would not be frightened. Feel it with all your heart, because it's indeed telling you something. For me that was very important.
Now the fear is gone (because I felt it through). Now I can just trust on my intuition... everything has changed now.

Allow it to influence your life, hell no.

My Fellow Avalonians,

Whew, what a couple of days eh? You guys are troopers. I have been reading this thread all day long, keeping up as best I can while also being down the rabbit hole, keeping up with the frenzy of activity there. I have been experiencing the reverberations, of the events the last month or so, rock us all back and forth very up close and personal and I must say it has been quite a ride and I have enjoyed it immensely. As you can see I am no longer a MOD. Consider this is my official announcement of that change and even though I have been angry and disappointed over the last few days I am not bitter so I do apologize if you were hoping for some dirt or embarrassing revelations. I aspire to be a man of honor therefore I will not intentionally break oaths even if my disclosure could easily clear all of this up once and for all. It is what it is.

You may not see me post for a while as I will be returning to being the observer; another position I have held here at Avalon since it came into being and only on occasions like times of excitement and movement, have I come out of hiding to engage with you people. Many of you truly humble me, including many of you new folks. I will be blunt and say that some of you annoy the hell out of me too; a fault I am currently trying to overcome because each of you are perfect and I just fail to see it…yet.

But these MODs…this team that has been running this place, all of them are a cut of people that have a rare shine and glimmer that warms you and makes you feel like your home. They have an intellect and wit that is a joy to engage with or stay silent and just bask in. Sacrifice and service are a hobby to these guys; they make it look easy and HAVE FUN doing this. I am a blessed man indeed to be able to call them my friends. I have been trying to work out all day what to write about all of this; what to say to you all in some official capacity as a representative of staff so I will tell you my perspective as that is all I have. It won’t be the truth as I don’t know it and can say with some assurance that no one else does either.

You may think it was the Charles material that brought me out of hiding this last time but it wasn’t. I had been posting since mid to late December and was about to crawl back into my silence again yet a PM from a really cool lady moved me to continue engaging with you fine folks. Once the Charles material was underway and a flood of people hit this place I figured I better watch it again really close this time to glean what I was obviously missing. I didn’t know what I was looking for so I watched everything closely including the body language of both Bill and Charles. What I finally saw hit me like a brick. I could be wrong, but I saw that Bill and Charles had themselves a connection going there. I suppose you’re all up to speed about this phenomenon involving these love connections that are happening en mass here, in which soul mates, twin flames, and soul recognition type relationships are happening to a large number of people (if not, ask around).

Well I have had them in my life before with male and female both and I believe this is a very significant thing; an important event. I have attempted to address it with Bill but he can be a very busy man and the subject was quickly changed to crisis mode that is very common in the bowels of Avalon lately. After that day, it didn’t matter anyway as there was such a lack of trust and cohesion between the two of them I could imagine no brotherhood forming with that kind of nurturing. This was the day of the Atticus donation crisis. I figured I was just wrong on the whole thing and felt a little foolish really and didn’t bring it up again.

I was still very excited about what has been going on around me. It can be quite exciting in MOD world and I did mention the fun these guys have with their clever banter and camaraderie. But I was also going through my own experiences like some of you folks. I was experiencing these connections and meeting soul mates. In PMs, in the Avalon chat rooms, and even with some MODs. You see to me this clearly had something to do with what was happening here at Avalon; clearly something to do with a new way of life, hell maybe a new civilization of you want to take it there. It is defiantly a higher love as I have some experience with it as I have been affected by it since the age of 17 with multiple people.

I don’t know what it all means but I know that many of your lives are about to significantly change and you are going to experience an evolution of spirit and bliss. That has been my experience therefore I am in total awe and wonder at watching this occur to so many people at once and simply cannot even imagine the implications of what it could mean. That’s really the only reason I became a MOD, so I could learn more about how this was being handled so I could interact and help with what is happening; play a role somehow and facilitate, do my part.

What I walked into was an ebb and flow of crisis and recuperation run by beautifully flawed super people; Jedi. No time to focus on anything but the daily fires started by some of you guys, and the attacks coming in from all directions to get you guys all riled up attacking each other in the first place. I don’t know who they are and I am not going to speculate and point at anyone when I can’t say for sure, if it even mattered, because it doesn’t.

You know it is out there, you should just be prepared to deal with it from a place of love and gratitude, and not feed it. You feed it by trying to make it go away instead of accepting it. It’s a catch 22 and you can’t win, you have to rise above it so it doesn’t matter. My two cents anyway. The answer has been here the whole time, these connections. Explore them and become who you really are. I could be wrong but the rest of this stuff is peripheral, sorry if I don’t take it all too seriously but my recent experiences have made all of this “he said she said stuff” as interesting as what’s on TV.

I’m too busy evolving. I have made some extraordinary connections with some amazing people. That has made me a pretty lame MOD, because it has kept me from reading most of these threads or even understanding where you guys are concerning your knowledge of these connections. If you understand the strong emotional bond and psychic link these connections bring when nurtured you will know how well you can get to know a person, easily empathize what they are feeling, and perceive their thoughts and reactions with a clarity you find with a soul mate, and beyond. The connections vary in strength as you encounter them, some people will seem closer to you faster than others but it is the nurturing that makes them grow in strength so how strong they eventually get is up to you.

Of all the people here at Avalon the strongest connection I have is with Celine Dragaon. She is one of my best friends and I do know her well; better than all here but her husband Richard of whom I have the deepest respect and admiration. He is flawed and in pain and we have seen it show once. Only once during all of this chaos and madness that has been on his shoulders daily. He is now gone. Demonized. Banished.

Because I know Celine as well as I do, I have an insight into Richard none of you do. The pain I have endured by seeing these two taken for granted, suspected, accused, dissected, used, humiliated, judged, condemned, and even attacked is too much to bear and is a tragedy I will never forget to the end of my days. You have no idea what this place meant to them. You can’t possibly know, or you would not have done this. As much as I hurt, I will not sit here and judge your flaws as you so easily do others, in your great and noble wisdom that you must obviously posses, to even be able to make such a judgment on these two complex and fantastic beings of light, hero and heart.

I thought I would learn more about the connections by becoming a MOD, and what I found instead were just more connections and I am having the time of my life. Bill and I aren’t on the same page and that’s OK. I wish him the very best but I have had enough of the material. The Charles material, Heather material , Enlightened material , Gypsy Material, Celine and Richard Material …distractions keeping us all from discovering who we are by looking into each other with interest and delight instead of suspicion and contempt. My path lies elsewhere, in the direction of connections, mutual respect, love, trust, and the benefits they bring.

While I have your attention, I urge all of you to take a moment and look around at yourselves. All of you are involved; passionately involved with each other. Look at these amazing threads that are so long and complex they have to be analyzed off site and referenced. The material doesn’t matter folks, it could be full of sewing tips and it is still an amazing amount of interaction and sharing. You are the phenomenon. You guys already have it…stop looking for it in some material. Stop waiting for the next release to interact. Start focusing on the good you see in each other. Talk about that instead. Evolve. Love.


Have a pleasant day

Back to observer mode

Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which he has been born - the beneficiary inasmuch as language gives access to the accumulated records of other people's experience, the victim in so far as it confirms him in the belief that reduced awareness is the only awareness and as it bedevils his sense of reality, so that he is all too apt to take his concepts for data, his words for actual things.

- Aldous Huxley

I choose to take what I want from Project Avalon and leave the rest!

This too shall pass

It has happened before it will most likely happen again.

As predicted - groups will split and reform.

It is a gradual and natural process.

People grouping into clusters of like mindedness and vibration. Same in forums as in real life.

There are no clear winners today, no clear losers.

We are just individuals at play in our roles, just people being part of the one infinite creator doing its through the great illusion of third density - an illusion that wanes for us, some days more than others.

Final thought for this rough day: "What is done in the dark, will be shown in the light"

John..

To me, they are going to pursue a parallel path and goal. More power to them, in my book.

One forum cannot appeal to multiple goals of depth (depth that occupies the persons involved), so some goals and associated tactics must be pursued concurrently. Collective but individual.

In my last life (or second last) I was the weapon, and I was damn good at it. The horror of war teaches with it's depth. My goal and actions this time around..are ...different.

Hi all,

Just popped on to say goodbye to Richard and Celine, going to be weird not seeing any more posts from them, even way back when I was lurking they were names I'd instantly recognise. Good luck in your next chapter.

I can't help thinking there is something going on behind the scenes with Avalon , some things seem... staged? I hope this forum finds the balance again, just be careful of those who are here to cause trouble. Well this is just my opinion through observations lately... perhaps synchronicity.

Peace you lot please.

Hello Mr. Ryan,

I am not privy to the inner world of Avalon, and have just been putting my toe in the water for the past couple of months, trying to get a feel for it. The water, although warm and interesting also seem to have many unknown fish swimming about that I really couldn’t identify if they were dolphins, great white sharks, or anything inbetween? Coming aboard with the “Charles material”, and never having been on a forum before, I was testing the waters the best I could, and observing the best I could. The “Charles Material” did not help induce “trust” as it was, to me, quite frustrating to read especially with what I perceived as all the “tease” as to all this material that “Charles” was going to share. So for me, I was not sure about how honest any of this all was; and I was trying to put on the scale of truth what I was experiencing there. Then two days ago, when I logged on the forum to find Miss Celine’s thread, and witnessing the raging storm, it did sadden me, and it did tilt the scales of truth, for me, to the negative.

I so very much appreciate your very long post. I can’t imagine not sleeping all night, and having the ability to write such a long, detailed and coherent post. Thank you. It certainly helped balance out my scale of truth.

I am so very sorry that you had to endure so much. And indeed, it does appear that Moderator Richard did have his three strikes against him, and you did not act as hastily as I first concluded.

Mr. Ryan, I can’t imagine you having to sleep in your car. With all your admirers and contacts across the world, I would imagine all you would have to post is that you will be in a certain area and would appreciate some hospitality. Let me extend my open invitation to you, should you, and those you are traveling with, ever be in my neck of the woods, just pm me, and I can offer you a private, comfortable room, as you go about your work, or rest; and I can offer you as much home cooking as you desire. The thoughts that you would ever have to spend the night in a car, does not speak well for how our community works.

So if I have never said it before, and I probably haven’t, thank you for all your work, and dedication. What I know for sure is that I couldn’t do what you do, and apparently you do it all so grandly.

Sincerely,
Mr. Davis

I have finally finished reading everyone’s posts and threads about this fireball & carrots. I send love to everyone involved – these lessons are very emotional and painful when in the midst of it.

I feel compelled to share a few words from my own experience. This reminds me of many years ago being in the firing line, at the mercy of the opinions of others; it’s a haunting place to be. Injustice and reputation are mighty lessons to behold in the 'dark night of the soul'. I was taken to depths within myself I never knew existed. The good news is, for all spiritual truth seekers who has the courage to persevere with the dark night of the soul, there is the gift of wisdom - light at the end of the tunnel. To be able to ‘see it as it is’ clearly in love, void of judgement and resentment are an act of Self Mastery. To fall in love deeper with yourself mistakes and all, understanding the role you played how actions or inactions set it up. With love and neutrality seeing the other players and their roles that were in truth the energy of sand granules that created a beautiful pearl of wisdom, strength and enlightenment.
This was my darkest ‘dark night of the soul’, yet I discovered much more than just the above. I learnt to not live for the opinions of others, realising even if I pleased everyone or lived saintly someone would have an opinion on it. How many lifetimes had I wasted living for others opinions and not nurtured myself into becoming the true individual I dreamed to spiritually be. A reputation is only as good as one’s last mistake – that’s a hang-mans game of bulls**t. Happiness is not found in others, it comes from within loving oneself into life. Being honest and truthful in all my deeds is all that matters. Opinions are just opinions, here to day, gone tomorrow – It is how I feel about myself that is key.
At the end of the day there is no one to ‘blame’ as a wise friend reminded me, because the word ‘blame’ when turned into wisdom is – ‘B-AL-ME’.

If Bill is King Arthur who is Charles? Merlin? Lancelot? Mordred?

Allegorically speaking of course.

Hello Star Gazer,

I think you may have miread or misinterpreted Mr. Ryan's post; or did I? Did Mr Ryan write that he was actually the reincarnation of KIng Author, or just might have ancestral bloodline conncections?
