Here and Now...What's Happening?

[Taurean]

How ironic that on the eve of the Games, Channel 4 is screening H G Wells classic " The First Men In the Moon "

World government

His ( HGW ) most consistent political ideal was the World State. He stated in his autobiography that from 1900 onward he considered a World State inevitable. He envisioned the state to be a planned society that would advance science, end nationalism, and allow people to progress by merit rather than birth. In 1932, he told Young Liberals at the University of Oxford that progressive leaders must become liberal fascists or enlightened Nazis in order to implement their ideas

I love how Lars Von Trier finds beauty in all things,
i always loved his films, and this is no exception.

Hes kind of Danish version of Kubrick in many ways.

It was a beautiful movie, Astrid, I agree completely. My only disappointment with it was the main protagonist's view on extraterrestrial life in the universe. It was indeed beautifully shot and conceived.

What strange days we are living.

A sky full of chemtrails yesterday left us up here in Quebec with cloudy skies today. It was the first time I've seen such a concentration of them since I've been up here. I was a bit disappointed, as I'd held out some sort of hope for the rebellious nature of the Quebecois, thinking maybe they wouldn't subject their folks to chemtrails. I didn't take the below pic but it's what the sky looked like up here yesterday morning:



But with the sun doing it's thing so awesomely these days and the drought-like conditions up here, maybe they just wanted some rain, as that being a side-effect of more cloud cover, I guess.

I've also never tried anything hallucinogenic stronger than shrooms. Those didn't even really seem hallucinogenic to me either as they just seemed to make nature seem closer and everything had a greater clarity to it. That vid on the lady taking shrooms was revelatory as was Ulli's experience and subsequent life changes. Hope everybody's enjoying their day!

Highly anticipated ... but I could not get into the movie. There is a very Similar movie. I can not remeber the title. Another Earth on the sky, an alternative Earth.

and while i'm writting this i'm having a deja vu of that moment.

I dream last night with panters or female lions. Playing with them. Sometimes is scary. It's not a cat bitting your arm (little pet ) is someone who weighs 200 kilos. No jokes. Be calm. Buff!!!

I only wish I could have had a photo taken like this before my Mother passed away. So touching and beautiful...

Awesome Picture.....Now that brought a tear to my left sided male brain, which of late has been receiving female energies trying to open up the right side. Psssss dont tell anyone please.

As I said to WCBD the thanks button is so inefficient! Come on Mod's hows about a XOXOXO button!

My comment for the day! Although I don't own a gun, I sometimes wish I did and I would like the right to purchase one if I felt the need strongly enough! My brother-in-law once showed me how to use a shot gun and it kick me on my butt and I had a bruised shoulder. I thought no!

I saw Another Earth too. It's a similar idea, in that another giant planet is headed toward Earth, but a whole different treatment of it. I liked that movie also, thought it was very clever, especially the ending. Made you think, what if something like that really happened? Another planet with another copy of you showed up that had been hidden on the other side of the Sun.

I drew a tarot card today. 4 of cups.



Here is Jan Shepherd's take on it. Just thought I'd share.

The Four of Cups

The Lord of Luxury … is a card with a sting in the tail. Whilst it indicates a great deal of loving affection surrounding us, it also warns that we stand the very real possibility of committing a great sin - that of taking love for granted.

One thing you might have noticed in life is the strange way in which we value the love of people we feel deeply affectionate toward more highly than the love of people we are less attracted to. From my perspective this is an odd, and rather unkind attitude to have.

Love is a mighty and precious emotion. It both creates and destroys with ease. That some-one loves us is a priceless gift from the Universe. Whether we necessarily reciprocate in quite the same way is totally irrelevant. This person's love exists in isolation of our judgement of its importance.

So on a day ruled by the Lord of Pleasure, count the loving feelings that people hold for you. Treasure each and every one of these as the inestimable compliment and treasure it is. Do not stand in judgement. Rather, take a harder look at the people who offer you love, where you may not have sought it. And adjust your view of that love until you respect its worth, even though you may not return it.

Do not fall into the trap of doing things because somebody loves you..simply hold their feelings in the high regard they deserve. And be very grateful and glad to be loved... There are a great many people out there who never experience the warmth of being held dear and special. And that is a very lonely experience.

And if, for the time, you feel as though you are one of those people who is not loved and held dear, then use this day to seek out at least one place where there is an abundance of love, and go to it … everybody deserves to feel that they are not completely alone.

Awakened to a Falcon screeching from a tree this morning.
Another very clear, beautiful hot day on the mountain -3 days in
a row and the rays from the sun were intense.
Watched the moon rising up over the mountains as the sun was going down.
Surreal.

Enjoying a cool, quiet still evening in the forest.

Just got this via email:

"The text used for the narration of “Passing Through” is part of a speech Serbian scientist and inventor Nicola Tesla delivered in 1893 at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. Though today less known than figures like Edison and Einstein, Tesla was more or less the father of much of our modern technology, since he among other things developed the foundations of the European electrical system based on alternating currents and the principles of wireless radio communication.
At the time he was deeply influenced by the Austrian physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach, believing that the world should be conceived as a whole where everything is interconnected influencing each other. And that energy is a force that runs through everything be it inorganic matter, organisms or human consciousness. According to this line of thought every single action has universal consequences, not unlike what the father of modern chaos theory Edward Lorenz in the 1960’s termed ‘the butterfly effect’."

This is a cross posting from the 'Adventures Beyond the Body' thread that another Bob started.
The discussion is going stray to a topic that feels significant i.m.o. for many other people, so I thought to bring this discussion here to.
Maybe we can become aware of this mechanism and learn how to work with this properly.

[...]

Eventually most of the novelty of the extreme pleasure one experiences when flying (and all the more intensely when one does so formlessly, or, even better, universally, e.g. through timelessness) wore off. After two years I became primarily interested in how to bring in resources from higher dimensions down into the world my physical body was in, to help cure or solve my problems or those of other people, or to dissolve away negative energies. I became much more interested in going out of body while awake in my everyday world, and cleaning that up psychologically/energetically.

Why? Because we are living lives in this physical world, and we need to learn to master everything about that world. I found I was sometimes too naïve or impractical, because all the astral traveling was keeping my consciousness too much “in the clouds”. ...
The human body is itself an incredible gateway to many higher dimensions .... I guess these days I prefer [getting deeply in touch with the body] to astral travel, because it works better and quicker, at least in my experience.

May I ask what you mean when you say this... bringing in resources into the physical world?

Hi Wakytweaky,

What I eventually discovered was that there are certain groups of fifth-dimensional beings whom I guess I would call healing angels, for lack of any better term. What happened was that I eventually learnt how to get them to remove certain negative energies from myself or from other individuals -- but only when the individual in question had completed a (for lack of any better term) psychotherapeutic breakthrough in some area. Basically, once a person has been truly healed of some negative or debilitating energy, that energy itself usually has a little consciousness and life of its own, and seeks to attach itself to some other unfortunate person or living creature -- unless that energy gets "airlifted", so to speak, into a more positive dimension than this one. (In the Gospels Jesus is described as casting out evil spirits and in one case then sending some that had been cast out into a herd of pigs, rather than people. I suspect Jesus would have known how to send said evil spirits to a higher dimension, but probably the author of that part of that Gospel didn't know to do this.)

Thank you,

This feels like important information.

I know of a few people who are dealing with situations where they overcome stuck energy, or darkness if you will and find themselves in a situation where people close to them seem to have adopted this very energy.
This includes myself too.
I am in the middle of a process of... in loss of better words, cleaning myself of lots of stuck energy and there have been many moments that at the same time, my girlfriend started showing the psychological symptoms that I just got rid of. How do I learn to send this energy away to a place it can no longer do any harm?

And astrid wrote this in the thread of 'Faster EFT'.
Is this the same thing that you talk about there Astrid?
Could you tell us more about this principle and how we can send these energies to the right place?
I feel this is very important information that we all need to know.

Yep i can vouch for EFT, it works and fast.

Rob Smiths version i liked better as the original one was
a bit too long winded for me. After a while you can train
your body to just use one point , and shorten it even more.
That's what i did anyways, but that's just me, i like to take tools
and then make them my own in some way.

The only thing i would add to his work, knowing what i know
now, is a transmuting step. Too many practitioners teach to release
your "stuff" just into the ethers.. and its a big problem.
IMO anyways..

I used EFT during a business crisis six years go and it helped me stay calm.
It was the typical conman-crying-poor situation, and I fell into it.
But I learnt a lot and EFT helped me process the shocking truth of having been conned.
Haven't been using it since, but there has been no need to.

Hello Villagers.

I am asking for a miracle for my cousin's grand son. I just know how I would feel if I were in her place.

Jacob is two and has be diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia, going through heavy chemo, radiation right now and a bone marrow transplant soon. So scary and sad to see such a cute little guy go through this.

If you can find it in your beautiful hearts to send out the healing energy for Jacob, I would be grateful.

Thanks, Villagers
