Especially in today's world where internet has everyone connected with everyone else. Quoting: Earth Daughter It's not so bad thinking outside the herd, after all:) Hey Earth Daughter! That is the problem with change, especially massive change. It causes disruptions and creates a lot of unknown variables. The unknown is what causes fear. I usually do not quote movies, but this is a great quote about 'fear'. "If we are going to survive this, you must realize that fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Now, do not misunderstand me; danger is very real. But fear is a choice. "Do you know where we are? "This...is Earth." (from the movie: After Earth) SS...hitting the nail on the head...as always ....how do we get people to realize that being in the state of fear is by their own choice? That's a tough one because of how people think about fear. For example, I have removed nearly all my fear for myself. But, I do have a fear for my children and loved ones. You know, fear that they may get hurt, etc. IMO, that kind of fear is OK. It helps protect us and guides us to make better decisions. But, it must be balanced, not too extreme, and not to relaxed. Then, there is personal inner fear. That is the fear that needs to be controlled or understood. It is when that fear makes you lose control of making rational decisions that the problem arises. I have been in situations where the fear was all consuming. My choice was to slow my heart rate, begin taking deep regular breaths and start analyzing the situation with a rational mind, not an unthinking terror prone mind. I made the choice to dispel the fear. Though the fear was not wholly controlled, my actions were. These are steps. The next time it happened, the fear did not immediately make me 'panic'. Instead, it was like where I left off previously. It is like getting accustomed to fear and understanding that it arises from the unknown. But, once understanding comes of our eternal self, of divinity, of how powerful we truly are, etc., we can begin guiding our self's to a happier existence removed from the powers of fear. It's a bitch, and it is not some overnight thing you can do to get to that place where you can control the fear, instead of having the fear control you.

Could you imagine a generation of humans all having empathy and integrity? Could you imagine the positive changes just one generation like that could make? I bet it would make more changes in a single generation than the entirety of human existence. Could you imagine an entire generation living in fear, doubt, anxiety, etc? Would that generation be able to manifest any positive changes? The power of positive virtues is incredible. It far surpasses that of 'negative' virtues...but negative virtues, through emotions, seem the more powerful. It is not so. ![]() [link to swingingonspirals.blogspot.com] [link to blackbagconspiracy.wordpress.com] "Knowledge is wisdom without experience." ~ Chad Adams "Complexity nests itself within patterns.

I've been working on listening to my body's signals as it pertains to intuition on safety around others...and finding that if I do not heed those signals, I end up getting hurt...the good intentions and acts are not something these others can even begin to understand and they do nothing but 'create destruction'...seems like a dichotomy but there you have it. I've worked on these things my entire life, am wholly dedicated to the path with heart, all the lessons are being integrated in a manner which has become straight forward and clear. We are taught to shut down our inner voice, yet if we are paying attention we notice that every time we go against our higher self's directives, we end up getting hurt. TRUSTING ourselves comes with being HONEST with ourselves. So just a thought on creating sanctuary, safe space...trust your intuition and avoid mettlesome people and energies. |

It is a Tibetan Thunderbolt, or a Vajra. [link to en.wikipedia.org] S-Man, the image you have in your tag, how come? :) Quoting: Connor 29850086 (the one you use as sig, not your avatar) It has to do with the Electric/Plasma Universe models. Dr. Anthony Peratt (Jet Propulsion Lab) had done some experiments with plasma discharges in the lab. He found out that plasma discharges were shaped exactly like some ancient rock art, as well as mythological 'weapons' that the 'gods' used. This item is shaped like a plasma discharge. What they concluded was that plasma events happened in earth's atmosphere that were massive. The ancients recorded these events on rocks, art, and items as they thought they were reflections of the gods.

The gist being that ALL SUFFERING AND ALL PROBLEMS ARISE FROM EGO. It is very simple. It is not guns, or money, or 'vices;' the misuse of energy all stems from grasping and repulsion based on personal, ego-driven attachment. |

I accomplished all the master techniques within about a week except for one. That one was multiplying (cloning) myself to cover the entire dreamscape. I tried and tried, night after night for about 2 weeks. Then, bam, I accomplished it. I won't go into the details of the lucid dream, but I found that you do not multiply your body image and consciousness, you only duplicate your body image. When I did that, I could transfer my consciousness through any adjacent body image. I could do it extremely fast, racing around in and through all these body doubles of me. It was crazy.
