Here and Now...What's Happening?

I would agree with that, because right now many people are experiencing not just pain in many forms whether desirable or not, but also the very notion of desirability and undesirability, the desirable being by definition the relief of pain, the undesirable the onset of further pain. We are experiencing the notion of healing as the possibility of achieving the desirable after centuries of experiencing damage through wanting the undesirable.

It has been suggested (by Maurice Cotterell I think) that homing pigeons and other birds travel (migrate) using the earth’s magnetic fields of course, but by reacting in terms of comfort, heading towards greater comfort and away from less, the destination, home (Source?) being that place from which any further movement is in the direction of less comfort.

Yeah, Source is seen by many as the ultimate comfort zone, yet when they imagine the heavenly environment of sitting on some fluffy cloud they soon think the real comfort zone is a jungle down below full of boa constrictors and spiders and tigers.
Until the jungle becomes just too much of a hassle life style, and the whole thing ends up getting bulldozed.

Synchronicity: My dad had homing pigeons in his youth...it was THE thing to do then apparently, the way we all do the Internet forum thing.

Here is a picture of a homing pigeon mansion, built near where I grew up...18th century design...My dad's was nowhere near that size, but no photo, unfortunately.

That is beautiful Carmody!
When seagulls and lions meet

The song and the painting somehow fit well together, although I am somewhat put off by the name of the album....... *fnordle*

Looking at the image, you'd might not guess that she's a Floyd fan.. and her favorite Floyd song?

Try and guess before you click...

She introduced me to this (album), when I was a teen:

(I think I have between 5 and 7 copies on LP)

Fate had it that I sat next to Marianne Faithful on a sofa twice.
The first time when you were still a toddler. I was at Keith Richard's house and felt like an alien...
and she came and chatted with me to make me feel comfortable. And I was so grateful.
And the second time I was up in the world and she was down, and we were at my friend Chelita's house...
and chatting was impossible as both of them had apparently taken heroin
and when I realized that I just got up and walked out the front door, never to see either of them again.
If any humanitarian behavior was required of me at that moment I admit that I failed.
But I knew my limits, and what was going on there was way beyond.
So talking of comfort zones, like a homing pidgeon I headed back home.
I just wanted to be comfortable myself, but without resorting to hard drugs.
If anyone thinks I had an interesting life...just think about Marianne Faithful's life.
Boy oh boy!

Very interesting article. Thank you Astrid.

The idea of storing information in living cells has been the plot of sci-fi fantasies such as Johnny Mnemonic, starring Keanu Reeves - and today it has become reality

Made me wonder if we couldn't change the dam building program in those beavers' DNA.

Which would lead to the holographic idea of other dam building programs out there also getting a make-over...
like all those tradition-based religions which are separating people like beaver dams.

Homing pigeons were used during both wars on many fronts, and also, incidentally, by the Rothschilds to make their fortune in London after the Battle of Waterloo. According to Robert Temple, they were also the secret 'weapon' used to make the Delphic Oracle such a powerful centre.

Homing pigeons have just one comfort zone they are removed from. Question, how do they like it if they are just left alone? Do they just behave like ordinary pigeons?

Migrant birds have two comfort zones and commute between them, so it's two kinds of heaven, I suppose. They must also have one comfort season/temperature/light level whose loss triggers their departure.

Hell for all these species is when the background magnetic field goes haywire and they can't get to where they want to be.

If interacting with humans has become a norm then to return animals to the wild must be rather traumatic for them...
whether pigeon, dolphin, lion, or human being.
If this is done voluntarily it is another matter, of course.
In my view everything should be voluntary.

I make 1 litre a day (for the whole family)
Love the stuff.

Actually this leads me to tell about my climbing out of the years of depression/apathy ... whatever the right label might be.
The biggest part was to get out of the victim role, which was heavily present in me. It took me some years to implement that recognition into my life.
But the heaviness and apathy remained, so I finally figured... if the body, mind and spirit influence each other, then I must try another approach... the body, so I set out to detoxify my body in order to influence the psyche. I learned in the process that I was pretty much toxified, strangely mostly up to the neck, but not above (I went to a bioresonance therapist), which puzzled the therapist as well as me One of the toxic intake where my 8 amalgam fillings (removing them now).
So, I set out to control the intake of food and drinks in order to get healthy again.... and it worked, big time.

This is one of the reasons that I struggle with what Jenci is telling in her latest post here. I keep wanting to fine-tune this process of making my body more healthy, because is was my brake through to mental fitness again for the first time in about 25/30 years maybe. I've never been able to take the route of therapy or whatever, it just wouldn't work with me and detoxifying the body did the trick after all. Or better said... enabled me to change the mental area as well.

Deleted out of respect for 1inMany and Ulli.

I am not sure I understand the reason for the deleted posts.

I would just like to say that since I have read alot of your previous posts, I am certain that these posts came from the heart.

And I believe that posts from the heart are of value. Even if they are saddening.

Thank you, Swan.
Ulli's post:

"I've decided never again to share any past history that was traumatic.
From now on I'm asking everyone here to follow my example and only share their happy shyte
because as long as 1inMany is going through her withdrawal crisis
she will just manifest every little thing she reads about here.
Burning her house down while smudging...my oh my, what an oxymoron...

Also lets try to only give her UNDER-reactions, so as to avoid her getting some weird idea
that she has to provide us all with a show.

A calm life is not always a boring life.
I have spoken.

When I asked for clarity I just got more confused. What is one's definition of too personal?

This was the part of the post that I saw, “I must say, I loved that post of yours...and the point you made about fresh starts.....we've all suffered so much....”

When I read that there’s an unspoken “but” we’ve all suffered so much”.

Posted by ulli (here)
When I'm 100% serious you all would feel it in an instant, even if your computers were turned off and unplugged.

So whatever I say, I'm coming from a variety of levels...
from totally detached soul level, where not even death matters....
to passionate obsessive-compulsive perfectionistic lets-get-this-105%-right type of anal idiocy.

I had no clue what that meant.

And posted,

“My power of comprehension is shot. The brain is tired, so I'll wish all a good night.

I took down some more. It's hard to know what triggers sadness in another. So I'll ask 1inMany not to review past post and I'll be mindful in the future.

Feel free to past the post # along and I'll remove them.

Peace,
Paula”

This morning, I’m scrolling down and see the whole picture. Last evening, my first responsibility was to remove anything that may cause pain to another.

Some of my themes are of change. Those were the ones I deleted. From one phase of life to another means walking through the unknown. When there’s a secondary thought like ‘fear of change’, for some, it means loss of something that was, or often something that never was.

I am mindful that people and myself are going through great change. I don’t mean to minimize it, but life IS change. There’s the overlay of loss in relationship(s) or health or job or child or home or financial juggling. I’d not want my posts to cause additional stress or pain. I understood Ulli’s post to say 1inMany has an overload of heart felt sharing. She’s taking everyone’s sage advise to help her over the bump.

My philosophy is keep it simple. That’s what works for me. It took me a long time to get there. I’d research and try the latest trends. What I learned was it did more harm than good. That’s not to say I still don’t try things. Like PurpleLama’s MSM 2000 and castor oil soap from www.heritagestore.com. Taking outside advise is helpful. There’s a tipping point that caused me to not look within and hear what my body, soul, mind needed. And the hardest part? Patience while it unfolds.

For me, my life experiences demonstrate that words like change, let go, and loss, are really Freedom in disguise. So the saying “feel the fear and do it any way” has served my growth. I spend less time in limbo to get from there to here.

With that said, I know we are all unique. So is our process. I removed the posts as my small part within the greater whole.

With heart and gratitude,
Paula

Oh, what synchronicity, I was coming here to announce that heritage has a new product, the castor oil pack kit, comes with the oil, flannel, their towelettes for cleaning up the oil, and an instruction booklet.

Paula, there are plenty on this forum who could do with a little more self censorship, as it were, I don't think you are one of 'em.

Hodge-podge Post: small spaces, material possessions, Freedom disguised in false labels

I'd rather live in the small place than a big one. Cost effective=Freedom. Every once in a while I go on a "lighten the load binge". Two simple rules: use non-see-through bags, and no peeking.

I spend most of my time in the same space. My challenge is kitchenware. I own several quality pieces of cookware (Le Creuset). They are perfect for Nishime cooking method which uses very little water. Vegetables cook in their own juices. This cooking method can be used daily because it’s centrally balanced for the body.

And I use a really good knife. Less equipment. I just sprung for a toaster last year. I'm into bagels these days. Oh yes! a coffee pot, though trying to end that relationship. (and a microwave oven mostly to thaw out the bagels) If push comes to shove, coffee pot and micro out; juicer and water distiller, stays.

Books...my rule is/was only 100 (was in the thousands, that’s a conservative number). Thank you, iPad!

Clothes, once I left teaching, I saved thousands and space. Small business out of apartment = Freedom.

I’m annoyed with myself because I’ve purchased so much crap for the 12/21/12, grid down, empty shelves, alternative electricity toys and gadgets, and foods. Breathe, breathe, breathe.

My family loves to invite me to help pare down. Though they don’t like me when I don’t buy into enabling. Ground rules get broken. No-win situation. Whispers behind my back. But I still Love them.

“The Traveling Pots and Pans & Fresh Starts”

18 years old walk out the door with a brown bag bag filled with clothes and a couple of books. Hitched a ride to the next state over. Fresh start.

Filled my 1963 VW with my 3 1/2 year old son’s things, pot and pans and some clothes and drove away from a five year marriage and brand new home that became just a house. Fresh start.

With one more semester of college, the TV switch began to smoke and flame. I was afraid it would explode. Grabbed my son, while he grabbed his teddy bear and watched as it went up in flames. The volunteer fire department wouldn’t come out because of 3 false alarms that day. 85-90% loss of "things". Fresh start.

2nd marriage of 17 years, left it all, except the queen size brass bed, clothes, books and pots and pans. We are still dear friend. Fresh start.

Hi. New here. I've been digging through this thread for a while - I will be posting something more along the lines of the original intention of this thread here shortly but wanted to insert two cents on this.

Mind-Body-Spirit -- our actions absolutely translate. Living as a nomad gives a Mind-Body-Spirit of a nomad. It's hard to put into words but once you DO, you BECOME. Some people can work it the other way, but I've always seen the Do-Become work <3

The 2012 Myth, “Daily Wisdom,” by: Rachel Willis from Archangel Michael

"Today, dear ones, we are urging you to continue 'holding the space' for the collective energies of Mother Earth to remain firmly and definitively secure in the future of the planet. For each of you are working as part of a team to reassure the population who know not about the dawning of the year 2013 and instead live in fear (often on a soul level) of the world ending.

The fact that you intuit the future beyond this year - in your unique way, be it vision, knowingness, sense, taste, smell, audio or telepathy with future beings - is indication that the planet MUST be safe going forwards.



Therefore, please ask us to keep your energies buoyant, to prepare rewards for you once this collective team work is complete and the year ahead arrives, and to inform you every step of the way about the best and clearest guidance for your soul and others to follow in order to help the highest numbers of people feel reassured of the falseness and misinformation that we fondly call 'The 2012 Myth'."

Blessings of Light, that light your day.
With love,
Paula

@ WCBD

When I read that there’s an unspoken “but” we’ve all suffered so much”.

The unspoken "but" was more like "gosh", we've all suffered so much'...
as I was reminded of the time I lost an entire household of possessions which was in storage...
and had a real shock that this also had happened to you,
and I really, really felt for you, and what you must have gone through back then.

So I had a second shock to discover that you could read me so wrong,
and I hadn't even used the word "but", but you had imagined it.

So I thought that this was a case of instant karma...
where the exact reverse had just been done to you by AriG when she misunderstood you
yet you then did it to me.
Working to rise above one's emotions brings clarity, and clarity is something worth striving for.

Anyway each of us have very different and uniquely personal lessons to learn,
and I'm dealing with my own stuff right now,
so won't get any deeper into what I think others ought to be learning,
butt, this "but" incident was one which did deserve to be clarified.

Here and now - excitement and overwhelm.

I've been searching for a forum like this - a place where everyone recognizes humanity's constant evolution and seek to help it move forward with complete appreciation. I know I've found it here. Looking through these boards the last several weeks and being accepted (on the typical tentative status) precisely on the day the 188-day cycle was proven for the 8th(?) or so time gives me a sense of "I'm supposed to be here"

This thread where we open our mundane to each other - this thread and it's meaning is what convinced me this forum is where I can grow and be useful.

So here and now, I'm waiting for my Falcon friend to show herself as she always does around this time every day. It's absolutely silent - not even a single car is passing by my home of the last 3 years that will soon become a memory. My nearly 2-year-old son is playing contentedly in his room, I hear his coos and choo-choos over the monitor as I sit in my bedroom to finish out my work week. Here shortly I will go out to play with him for a bit and give him lunch before secluding myself again to actually write the review I've researched. But that's not here and now...

It's sunny, not a cloud in my view of the sky. A little chill is in the air. The leaves are just a touch past green. Didn't they say it was supposed to rain today? So much for that.

Aloha from Manchester, NH USA. If you know anyone renting a 3BR place in the Milford area, I'm all ears <3

Here’s my synchronicity: rediscovered just this week, the message carried off the battlefield at Verdun in 1916 reporting gas attacks, and the posthumous award to said pigeon, which died of gas poisoning on arrival.

So here we have pigeons dying from gas poisoning while delivering the message about gas attacks,
and the possibility of beavers dying in their line of duty ...ie building dams, albeit in the wrong place
and Meeradas still working for a living, while killing himself working....
it's all about misplacements, isn't it?
Or non-adaptation to the winds (gasses) of change.

This Village needs to call forth it's beaver whisperers, no matter how tough a job that may be.

Your name made me think of a tetrahedron.
I needed that image today...good timing.
A trine is an astrological angle that allows harmonious energies to stream between two points which are 120 degrees apart.
A grand trine is when these angles form an even sided triangle.
A tetrahedron is when you project that triangle into 3D.
We should all focus on the image as the next full moon approaches.
This will diminish possible fall-out and help maintain equilibrium.

Interestingly , I was looking up how to make Kefir
just before I went to bed . Have the DIY yoghurt thing
and the sour dough bread thing going on so this trend
with fermenting foods seems to be continuing .
Seems to also be somehow connected with spiritual
growth too , I guess "live" foods for sure would have a
higher vibration than dead ones ...

I had delivery yesterday of a fantastic yoghurt cook book
written by and Armenian author, before making my own
I was not a big fan of yoghurt and I had in fact quit dairy
all together . I will be exploring non dairy versions too , but
I also get that I need the high levels of calcium in my diet.

But thanks for the Kefir link that will be my next kitchen
science experiment . I was reading that you can get a starter
to fast track the process . Will post that link later when I'm on my
Big Mac

Oh yes... Speaking of books , another book that just arrived
would be of interest to all the soap makers here , it's an extension
of sorts to that whole area . It's called " grow your own drugs "
And it's packed full of recipes for home remedies from plants
it's an excellent resource , google for authors name, etc

More sleep now

Love to all

I rarely participate here because, well, I live a pretty mundane life, and don't know much how to contribute here without sounding like I am feeling sorry for myself. But for starters, the sun just peeked through, after an all night rain. The air smells clean, and birds are happily digging worms (wish they could dig the moles while they''re at it.
For the last few weeks, I have been going through "something" that I can only guess is related to the evolvement from 3D to 4D. A week ago or so I experienced some weirdness during the peak of solar activity that week.
My personal life is full of challenges, as it seems chaos is everywhere. I have actually gotten very good at living day to day. I don't worry about tomorrow or next week, or next year. I get done what needs to get done...today.
My spouse,on the other hand is in a perpetual state of anxiety and judgement. His stress keeps me on a never ending search for solitude and calm. The main difference is he denies that he is affected by any "energies" and that it's his life that is screwed up. I'm not really seeking advice for him, as we are about to begin counsel together, but its nice to just share these things with the only people I trust anymore, you guys.
