Greetings Rod. I know off topic for this section but related to your post above. Peace meditation. What exactly is a peace meditation ? That description alone is somewhat vague. By engaging in this meditation what exactly are you doing ? Having a self conversation whereby you speak without words. That is non verbally imagine the words which have form & meaning but no audible sound ? If so is it a projection of a conversation with yourself being a series of positive affirmations, wishes or desires for a particular outcome phrased into logical sentences as would transpire in conversation with others but having no audible sound ? Is it a conversation with an audience ? Can you imagine others engaging in this participation as forming a structured, connected by intent presence which you however understand is not physially constructed like a crowd or gathering in the traditional way of thinking ? Is it a self conversation of words being more of a chant, song or prayer ? Is it a silent invocation or temporary construction of symbols either in optical pictoral form or non optical conceptual form ? Are you able to specifically target .... something, someone or more of a generalized to the winds universal all encompasing target ? Are you doing this with the aid of an enhanced atmosphere such as burning incense, playing music, being among nature ? Hope the questions dont shock you but you appear to be actively searching for answers not always available in textbooks. Cheers.

Ramirez, Perhaps you need to start to familiarize yourself with some of the FIGU information: http://us.figu.org/portal/SpiritualTeachings/PeaceMeditation/tabid/94/Default.aspx |

Scott. Sincere thanks. The information is more than sufficient. Allowing no intrusion of stray thoughts whilst accurately repeating one sentence for 20 minutes is quite a feat. Cheers.

*** Hello Ramirez, So many questions you have. It may appear to be you "actively searching for answers not always available in textbooks." We both know the ART of LIVING is not found in the dry leaves of books. I don't conduct my life on 'belief' or 'blind-faith,' but rather on KNOWLEDGE, on Knowing from experience. My own knowing has experiential basis. My practice of meditation has been a lifelong growth from earliest on, form evolving with maturity. But thank you for your concern. Meditation has many forms, which can produce many results, depending on INTENT. Directed, focused thought DOES emanate an Energy which can have positive results. Perhaps these words from Billy, in Special Bulletin 38, will answer some of your concerns. These are words which I 'take to heart' myself. http://www.futureofmankind.co.uk/Billy_Meier/FIGU_Special_Bulletin_038 Peace be with you. *** You say you want an Evolution, well you know, we're all doing what we can. -(Beatles revamped) Rod

Rod. "So many questions you have. It may appear to be you "actively searching for answers not always available in textbooks." We both know the ART of LIVING is not found in the dry leaves of books. " Thankyou ... the answers are sometimes there if one knows where to look. An absolute treasure storehouse you pointed out .... greatly appreciated Markcampbell. Thankyou for the tip. Breathing .... Over the years several doctors have been shocked to discover my breathing pattern is a very shallow 4-5 seconds in, hold about 8 seconds, 3-4 seconds out. Not normal they say but obviously it continues to work  Cheers.

Hi ramirez ; Breathing is like any other skill or talent or physical function . if you were never aware of it , you can be . Using it more will teach you to improve it's function . Many people breath shallow because they don't want others to hear them , or they are trying to hear other things , and their breathing is loud in their own head . But you see , nothing is more important , especially when it becomes challenged . At such a time , nothing else matters . MC Worthwhile to attend to . |

I don't know it these two would qualify as world leaders but the next two weeks could get interesting. http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/africa/03/06/zimbabwe.tsvangirai.accident/index.html http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/africa/03/02/guineabissau.general/index.html Hopefully this prophecy will turn out like the recent developments in finding artifacts on Mars. In other words it's not going to happen. The peace meditation is tomorrow. |

Dear Schantz, Although the deaths are not exactly seven days apart, but they are awfully close. Also, the second case is Zimbabwe prime minister's wife, he survived it. I share your wish for this to be an unfulfilled prophecy. Love, Peace, Logic and Wisdom, Zhila, Thank you Billy.

Consider this. You have existing various prophesies in the group unconscious as archetypes. Some acquire an unnatural strength and wide acceptance through the mainipulation of media by being selectively showcased in talk back shows, documentaries, internet blogs, news interviews ...... and religious traditions. For the CIA, Mossad, FSB, MI5 etc to arrange almost simultaneous deaths for 4 national leaders is possible especially in Africa, Latin America, Mid East and other areas where security for such persons is no match for determination & advanced technology. Those behind the curtain (top grouping of around 10) are occultists, heavily influenced by cosmology and melodramatic notions of destiny ... namely that they are acting for and on behalf of a supreme power. If this group wish to precipitate a false flag trigger based on the notion that a widely known prophesy has mainfested, in actual reality that can be arranged. However the question being ... how many persons would succumb to irrationality & swallow it. In concert with adverse conditions from a raging economic meltdown there could be triggered a powerfull downward spiral of collective energy manipulated through a mass media campaign. It's like yelling FIRE in a crowded theatre. This would have an effect of conditioning many persons harbouring latent unconscious fears to expect an appocalypse scenario, feed the negative spiral of collective energy further and possibly temporarily unbalance certain minds with access to national powers to start something. Who owns much of the mass media ... large corporations, who controls the corporations, banking, energy ? Ultimately at the top echelon a group of around 10 persons. Thanks Markcampbell. See what your tips on breathing have done Zhila. I wouldn't worry. They are always bumping off political opponents in Africa. Cheers.

Not sure if this is exactly the right category but it's unpleasant enough to go in several places: http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1213.htm See the article titled: ‘We Are Preparing For The Worst’, US Warns Russia Michael Horn

******* -Michael Truly Alarming developing situation with exposure of the economy. More so, being shared by our Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, with other nations. Then, of course, this impending collapse WILL affect the whole World. My advice, Everyone plant a garden. Join with your neighbors, if possible, to plant a LARGE Garden, from which produce may be shared. Get as INDEPENDENT from the Grid as you are able NOW. Stock up BIG-TIME on dry goods - beans, rice, wheat, &c, not only for your own family to use, but these will also serve to trade in barter in the place of "money." Keep everything like this stored in air-tight containers, so it does not get contaminated or eaten by rodents. Keep the STOCK of ammunition dry, too. It may be needed for self-defense, and to hunt for meat. The old Boy Scout motto: "Be Prepared," is very appropriate here. When you are prepared, there will be less panic, shock, despair or grief when this unfolds. Stand firm in the knowledge of Truth.

Michael, not that there isn't some truth in that article and on that site, but I would take some of their undocumented, unsubstantiated, unverifiable, so-called news, with a grain of salt. The title of their web site is "What does it mean?", as if we need them to interpret news because we are dumb sheep who can't figure it out for ourselves. They are the simply the other side of the coin to traditional vested-interest news outlets, which doesn't make their interpretation any better, any truer or without their own vested self-interests. Clinton 'may' have used expressions and words such as 'fast nearing' & 'preparing for the worst', but in the context and interpretation they infuse and suggest; it is hardly objective journalism and more speculation, hyperbole and self-serving editorial. Really no different than the news sources they sprung from. |

Thankyou Michael. Much interesting material to discover though some headlines seem quite alarmist & sensational. http://www.voanews.com/english/2009-03-06-voa15.cfm This statement by Hillary Clinton is quite funny. "The United States will not recognize any nation having a sphere of influence over any other nation," Clinton said. "I reiterated again in our meetings with Ukraine and Georgia, the United States' firm commitment to each of those nations moving toward NATO membership and our equally strong commitment to work with them along with NATO that they should not be the subject of Russian intimidation or aggression." Cheers.

Some extremely threatening saber rattling out of Israel. We know what the Plejaren have said about such a move. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article6115903.ece April 18, 2009 Israel stands ready to bomb Iran's nuclear sites Sheera Frenkel in Jerusalem The Israeli military is preparing itself to launch a massive aerial assault on Iran's nuclear facilities within days of being given the go-ahead by its new government. |

To add a twist to the Israeli/Iran saber rattling & WW3 prophecies. http://www.theage.com.au/world/obamas-stance-worries-israelis-20090417-aa90.html?page=-1 Obama's stance worries Israelis * Jason Koutsoukis * April 18, 2009 CAN Israel still call the United States its best international friend? Apparently not, if you believe the tone of the local media. Dear Earthling, Please don't copy and paste large parts of articles, since you put in the link the heading would be enough. Just a note, I would think that a lot of the people on the forum also watch news. Peace... Badr - Moderator (Message edited by badr on April 18, 2009) |

Badr, I posted this link twice two weeks ago that was not approved by the moderators and the article did not make main stream news. Was there a reason my link was not posted? http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200903u/netanyahu |

Hi Schantz, It was rejected because recently many members are posting news links, instead of discussing the thousands of pages published by FIGU. It helps remembering that if a person finds something interesting doesn't mean that all forum members will have the same interest to post it on the forum. Especially when its not directly related to FIGU. Peace.. |

Badre I cannot help but find you pedantic in your attitude towards contributers of this forum. Yes this forum is here to primarily relay the Mission but to not allow communication I find is inapropriate behavour. No harm is being done by members passing on what they have heard or read. I'm sorry I find your controlling attitude insulting at times. Peace John |

Hi Johnny, You are welcome to send me an email to have a lengthy discussion about the issue of being a moderator. I agree with you that no harm is done, but has it done any good? I do not want the forum to be like any other forum where the whole point of the forum is lost in midst of things that have no relation with the name of the forum. Maybe you are a member of many forums and know what I mean, and maybe you have no clue of what I talk about. Either way, you are welcome to send me an email if you are open for discussion. PS: I am not stopping communication? I am stopping members just posting any link they see on the internet just because they liked it. Big difference. Peace.. |

Badr, If I remember correctly, I read a post by Rarena on this forum sometime last year after he had visited the SSSC and Billy allegedly said if Israel attacks Iran then the third world war is right around the corner. The third world war is a topic here on the FIGU forum so I thought the link was relevant. |

***** I must agree wholeheartedly with the posts from Schantz and from John. (Well put, Johnny). I am jumping in here because this nonsense was also dropped on certain of my posts. We see quite often posts in these Forums to outside links from Michael Horn and from Scott Baxter. Badr, I don't see you giving whippings to either of them - I call this 'hypocrisy.' You want to do a good job as moderator, but has it gone to your head? Lighten up.! You may stand in danger of being fired from the job by playing 'dictator.' The posts of outside links add much to the ongoing discussions in the Forums. They are points of interest, added knowledge, new directions in the Forum which do NOT detract from the Mission any way. We all are given to "be in the world, not of the world" To be IN the world, we need to know what is going on in the world. We all don't have the time to round-up every story in the world on each our own, so contributions from members to share such news and information are welcome. Badr, in my opinion, you are less than Honorable in your attacks on personal posts, those which do not disrupt the flow and integrity of the Forum or Mission, those which contribute. Any which ARE disruptive must surly be cut off at the knees. Those which are engaged in an honest search for knowledge, for growth, for continued Evolution of the Spirit, should not. I'll be surprised if this post sees the light-of-day. Peace, Love, and my Blessings for All ***** You say you want an Evolution, well you know, we're all doing what we can. -(Beatles revamped) Rod
