Dear All,
For 10 minutes try to forget all the worries and scare mongering you heard yesterday and today and all the negative thinking and feelings you may harbour and immerse yourself in this short rendition of a young child's hope...
& then share it...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JN2SQ4m7M04&list=RDJN2SQ4m7M04
…Everything is in One, and One is in all, and everything is there in this infinite Creation for every single being, and the single being is there for the whole extensive All.
OM

Someday we'll wish upon a star,
someway we'll see beyond the far,
wherever you and I are,
whenever we build our castles on a sandbar,
that we see how we live our lives in a cookie jar,
and aim to break out of it.

Someday our glass jar will break,
someway our iong-sought escape we'll make,
chocolate chip cookies replaced with angel food cake,
and sandcastles washed into a great lake,
when we yet again awake
into what we always already know.

Someday we'll rise above the maze,
someday we'll set our inner sight ablaze,
already always learning new ways,
amazed, crazed as we gaze
only into the rays of the sun.

The sun is our inner star,
the sun no longer seen from afar,
the sun in whose image we make,
the sun which helps us awake,
the sun ever ablaze with rays,
our sun.
Life

Into this life we are thrust forth from the forge of creation into hellish misfortune by which we are punished for reasons unknown to us. Why are we condemned to this hell? Whatever it is that we have done to deserve this brutality it must have been the worst of universal crimes in all of the known existence of life inhabiting places. Children accosted with purest evil of every type imaginable and opportunity stripped from the hands of even our own children. Whilst we are to applaud the decimation of our own lineage or be erased as a threat to those who have already made their way to a lavish life from the blood, sweat and tears of those less fortunate. Taxing , killing , torturing is not the destiny I choose to follow nor will I be swallowed whole by obscurity when lies will make truth impossible to find. We will leave no mark upon this world and the ruling class will make it as you had never existed into an oblivion of nothingness . What say ye? Are we put here to be slaves to those who don't have a single moral between them that they are true to? Are we existing to spoil and lavish our greatest wealth upon them just to have them use our hard work and money against us and our families, nieghbors and friends? Attacked by agents of our governments. When have we bled enough? I have the answer to this question however and the answer is never. Our donations of the flesh will never sate the tyrant for look to history and you will find this has gone on since the dawn of our recorded time. Never. The tyrant will scream for your donations of the flesh and you will watch destiny stripped from your children in very much the same way it was stripped from you me us. I have the answer to another question as well. How long will this continue? My answer is simple "as long as we allow it to continue it will.

Q

This is art to me. I hope you will feel the same.

Love is the soup,
to which each relationship adds spice.

Love is the ocean,
and every wave, every fish, every storm upon the sea,
adds to the story of its life.

Love is the quiet, pleasant, all-too-soon-forgotten dream,
from which we awaken into the school of reality.

Love is the foundation,
most honest and true.

Life is the experience.

Thought I would share this poem written by the Venerable Lama Gendun Rinpoche:

Happiness cannot be found through great effort and willpower
but is already present, in open relaxation and letting go.

Don't strain yourself,
there is nothing to do or undo.
Whatever momentarily arises
in the body-mind
Has no real importance at all,
has little reality whatsoever.
Why identify with,
And become attached to it,
Passing Judgment upon it and ourselves?

Far better to simply
let the entire game happen on its own,
springing up and falling back like waves
without changing or manipulating anything
and notice how everything vanishes and reappears, magically,
Again and again, time without end.

Only our searching for happiness
prevents us from seeing it.
It's like a vivid rainbow which you pursue
without ever catching, or a dog chasing it's own tail.

Although peace and happiness
do not exist as an actual thing or place,
it is always available
and accompanies you every instant.

Don't believe in the reality
of good and bad experiences;
they are today's ephemeral weather,
like rainbows in the sky.

Wanting to grasp the ungraspable,
you exhaust yourself in vain.
As soon as you open and relax
this tight fist of grasping,
infinite space is there -
open, inviting and comfortable.

Make use of this spaciousness, this
freedom and natural ease.
Don't search any further
looking for the great awakened elephant,
who is already resting quietly at home
in front of your own hearth.

Nothing to do or undo,
nothing to force,
nothing to want,
And nothing missing.

Emaho! Marvelous!
Everything happens by itself.

> To the poem I'd say yes…and no. Not everything that arises in the mind-body should be only observed; there are times in which, through neutral-positive thinking, we do make changes in our thinking and the resulting feelings and actions.

> "Everything" won't and doesn't happen all on its own. There is cause and effect and thrugh observation when can learn also to cpontrol ur thoughts and make preferred choices. In addition to inaction there is also…action.

Hi Grantman.

Thank you. Very nice.

I hope you don't mind me sharing it on FB?

I've found this song a great source of life's journey; ups and downs but the striving to make the best of it, regardless.

Just a friendly reminder.

Enemies are easier to manage than friends.

You allow your friends to be who they are.

- You demand your enemies engage you.

You trust your friends to do what’s right.

- You watch your enemies closely.

You are tolerant of your friends foibles.

- Your enemies' foibles are your target.

The enemies you conjure… are easier to manage than your friends.



I am your friend.
Peace, Salome, and smiles : )

I find the image-syncing with the music to be an extremely powerful and emotion, thought & feeling-laden artwork and statement, for peace/against war, against the coming wars and future armageddons and unrights, which goes right to my core.

So, I throw it out there. Naturally, we all have different tastes.

1 in 3000 solar systems have life
And we are just sitting here, suffering in strife.
The guardian of the treasure offers us his gems
While everyone else just wants pleasure, or condemns
The only solutions to every world danger
Yet we treat our own neighbor as if he’s a stranger.

But they refuse to show themselves in this dimension
Which is why the media refuses to mention
The one man in the world who has good intentions-
To teach us the truth about reincarnation,
The Creational laws, and their implementation.
But no, they leave us to fend for ourselves
To learn from mistakes and live through our hells
Caused by the fight or the might of our thoughts
And if World War 3 starts, I’ll all be for naught.

The Plejaren play it safe and they keep their distance
At 500 light years and not much assistance.
A fraction of a second shifted from ours
They’ve chosen to hide behind Pleiadian stars.
These nearly-perfect people seem to be afraid
To help us and teach us while they watch us degrade.
When a digital camera could quell all our fears,
They tell us to wait another 800 years.

By now you’ve detected my sarcastic frustration
With the people who live in the Plejaran nation.
But what can I do with just my own voice?
They refuse to help further and left me no choice.
They love to work in their gardens on Erra,
But won’t get their hands dirty with us earthworms on Terra.
Just like the South must think North Korea is deranged,
In 12 billion years, I guess not much has changed.

Just finished this oil painting. It is 90 x 70cm and already it is causing a bit of controversy in my conservative little town...Hopefully the Christians won't take any offence.

Hi Jacobus,

Very nicely done!

Why care what Christians might think.

btw, not sure but I thought the Plejaren were not present at the time of Jmmanuel's crucifixion? But if they were I think the P's should have beamed him out of there if they had that technology back then.

Well done, Jacobus.

The purpose of life is to expose the truth.

Salome,
