Here and Now...What's Happening?

[Carmody]

As for getting the crowd to remain seated, it was a simple projection of a feeling of being out of place and being not with the correct 'public' face and behavior, IF one where to stand up.

A thing or feeling/knowing/trained-behavior that everyone there had, in spades..and then amplified as a mood, sent out to the crowd in front of us, as a continual signal, intently so. Kinda like blanking them out, but with this -superimposed. You can't get people to do things that are against their will. Use the will they already have.

Everyone is already living in an auto-hypnotic state, so it tends to work. The trick is that the broadcast, all of it, is below the conscious line, when this is done. No forcing, just what they already know. None of this is done with the thinking mind. Intensity, energy, and continual, no slips, no forcing. I had a few people turn around their heads and look at me, but that is not unusual.

Brother, I'd suggest that you're a forerunner of the new telepathic capacity that will become more prevalent as the shift intensifies.

Please will you accompany me to the next concert? I've been watching from my computer screen for years and, frankly, I miss the energy. Everywhere I go access has been blocked.
What is this world coming to?
All of us off-worldlers are being given such a hard time.


All that's left is to be one of these:

and even then they pick on me all the time
constantly...
not even trusting my driving
when it's obvious that I'm a brilliant driver.

Who can blame me for getting mad?

There is a reason for this.

No one is given, or to put it another way, selects for themselves, that which they cannot deal with.

Obviously the perspective that this comes from is not the mind/body of the incarnate identity which feels so oppressed, but with that which observes the "oppression" (soul).

If you identify with the observer, you already walked over the bridge to the land of freedom.

If you do not identify with the observer, then you first observe the chasm between you and the land of freedom.

Then you start to build the bridge.

(I use a bridge analogy, others use a doorway that blocks the path - how to open the door, peeking through the keyhole etc)

We have a hard time so we are made to do this.

Time after time after time until we get it done.




(Without wanting to be too controversial, I do raise an eyebrow at the inclusion of the vampire meme, on this thread, given all that has gone down on this forum recently!)

Since it is my thread let me say one thing here, Anchor...
about my use of humor and the intent behind it.
I want you to know, as well as Borden,
and anyone else who no might be wondering how it came to this

I say things in jest, as humor is in my view the best way of breaching gaps.
I see myself as a bridge maker. And my bridges are about both sides retaining their full autonomy,
yet honoring differences without demonizing either side.
Usually this humor comes easy for me...I guess I was born with it.
The thing is, proper bridges have to have a foundation, and those are built by addressing difficult issues rather than skirting them.
The end result is a two way crossing, hence a win-win for all. No losers.
Maybe you mistook my vampire joke as gloating, but let me assure you, I knew why I made it.
No gloating.
When I decided to go and visit the Pub I did so using a funny line to break the ice.
And I believe Songs recognized it for what it was.
The only problem was that Borden did not.
His letter to me surprised me for it's vehemence; it was really hostile.

If the Pub regulars can't see that there is an amazing amount of paranoia there
that makes it impossible to even approach the scene unless one is a drooling admirer
then the only option is to stay away. Which is what I decided to do.
I lay the full blame on Borden, ever since months ago when he made that remark to Carmody,
and it became obvious that one entered the pub at one's own risk.

As for Songsie, with friends like Borden, who needs enemies?
Some of her written stuff is really great, but as she herself realizes, not everyone has to like it.
I have always had a problem with lawyer language and Songsie, being one herself, can't help using it, I guess..
I just hope when they come back that all this stuff can be sorted out.

[Carmody]

Something happened, I'm gathering. I was not paying attention in those areas. I do as I said I would: I give -and gave- it no more time or thought. So she is a lawyer, I kind of gathered that from the text presented.

[benevolentcrow]

On a lighter note, all you cat lovers out there put your orders in now! Before they are all gone!

[eaglespirit]

Orrrrrrr...just 'wing it' from one world to the other...come and go, go and come,,,drives 'em all crazy I tell Ya : )

...and so it is
may all be lighter and interrogation-less next time 'round.

It sure does eagle

[PurpleLama]

Songs said she studied law, not that she was a lawyer.

Fred cautiously approaches ulli with a rather uneasy look in his eye. He's genuinely curious to find some plausible reason why this is still being discussed in such a manner. In Fred's world, this is known as a cheap shot.

Fred politely nods, and goes off to do some dishes before going beddy bye.

No gloating.

I did understand it.

I know for sure that it will be misunderstood in the manner you suggested, not by everyone, but by some. That is all I was really saying.

We do not and should not need to walk on egg shells here.

Ulli you have done such a great job with this thread, you really really have.

No one who has read even a small sample of this thread can have failed to see the energy you have put into it.

Avalon is a light - a strong one. We all know this.

As soon as stable patterns form, like the one here, and Avalon itself, you can be as sure as you can be that something will be along to have a go at destabilizing it. That thing can be innocent or it can be intently done.

One of the best things this thread as going for it, is the people in it who can all act to maintain the stability. The surge in activity these past few days proves my point. Groups like this are archetypes of the future - something that is very definitely worth holding on to.

What I would like to see is the same principles applied to all the interesting little sub-communities that spring up - even the special interest ones.

I've not been seeing that these past few days.

Its all good though - if we can get something out of it.

That which doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

there's freedom in not giving a damn about certain things.

Sleep on it, Fred.
By the time you wake up you will have figured it all out.
And might even find yourself in a new world
where the word "shot" is unknown.

Ok, so I just got in from getting my "sun" ... (sun stays out till nearly 10:00 pm here this time of year ;-) -- went out and mediated to the sun, something I used to do when I was younger ... sort of ... back then I was trying to get a tan with a quick meditation on the side by accident, that would happen to intrigue me.

But today this was different. Something I haven't done since a late teen, early twenties, I just went out and set up the lawn chair in the ideal spot and stared at the sun with my eyes 98% closed. I heard a robin singing, and she came and flew up upon the church roof adjacent to my property to sing to me. I tried to extend my consciousness to include hers ... I could get brief glimpses of my yard and myself on the lawn chair as though from her eyes, but I wasn't sure. She moved from my sight but I got another glimpse of the street on the other side of the church. I looked again and saw her climb onto the peak. She would have had a view of what I saw in my head ... I am very elated about this. I have not felt this close to nature in many years - a connection I have admittedly lost, but am eager to regain. When I initially posted I need to get back to "communion and play" -- nature has a large part - I want to be the me I was when I was 9 years old. Fearless, but oh so loving.

In my "Sun" meditations, I expressed to him a longing for an "ethereal" connection - not just a "physical senses" one, this was felt in me by a sensation of a tear welling in expression for that longing. I immediately received a vision of the sun - seemingly imposed on the slightly greenish disk I could see through my 2% slits, weeping as well - as though it were equally His wish - that He wants to commune.

While just a personified vision, I am sure it was representative of an energy that is real. I immediately thought back to how all aboriginal races have at one point or another also seen the sun as more a being as opposed to just a giant furnace.

I have been reading some Ken Carey again recently, and I'll paraphrase something from one of his books: ... "... When spirit brushes matter with delicacy and precision, life can arise, When Spirit brushes matter with intensity and vigor, Stars are born."

Just my 2 cents for the hour

It IS all good, Anchor. Gald you pointed it out.
Just seeing that it is dissolves the hard edges of life.
Still, there are processes involved, processes which need to take their course.

This group thing...I'm also very happy that you see it in the same way I do.

After a while it is no longer about individuals, but the relationships, the interactions, the dance, the space between.

Like particles in motion, pure energy.
Like the stars and planets...in perfect harmony.

No more exclusivity.
No more us versus them.
That paradigm has failed.

He's back! Good timing.

No better energy than being free and detached.
