I hope you enjoy and benefit from them as much as I have. Here’s hoping 2018 brings us much closer to a peaceful and joyful world where thinking and acting with Moral Clarity and Spiritual Integrity are the norm for all people in every
aspect of their lives.
Links Worth Exploring Systems Thinking Holistic thinking to see
how people, systems, ideas, actions, and organizations are highly interconnected and affect each other in often unseen ways. It teaches us to connect the dots in order to see the complete picture... - Manifesto for a Post-Materialist Science - "We are a group of internationally known scientists, from a variety of scientific fields (biology, neuroscience, psychology, medicine, psychiatry), who participated in an international summit on post-materialist science, spirituality and society. The summit was co-organized by Gary E. Schwartz, PhD and Mario
Beauregard, PhD, the University of Arizona, and Lisa Miller, PhD, Columbia University. This
summit was held at Canyon Ranch in Tucson, Arizona, on February 7-9, 2014. Our purpose was to discuss the impact of the materialist ideology on science and the emergence of a post-materialist paradigm for science, spirituality, and society. We have come to the following conclusions...”
- Why Millions of Kids Don’t See any Purpose in Going to School Anymore ... "And the reason is not that we’re not spending enough money. America spends more money on
education than most other countries. Class sizes are smaller than in many countries. And there are hundreds of initiatives every year to try and improve education. The trouble is, it’s all going in the wrong direction. There are three principles on which human life flourishes, and they are contradicted by the culture of education under which most teachers have to labor and most students have to endure. The first principal proposes that human beings are naturally different and diverse, and
the second, that curiosity drives the flourishing of human life. If you can light the spark of curiosity in a child, amazing things will happen. The third principle holds that human life is inherently creative.” ~PrepareForChange.net
- The Human Current Podcast - Interview with Designer and Systems Thinker Scott Jancy -Visionary Leadership in A Complex World - "In this episode,
Angie interviews consultant, blogger, and systems thinker, Scott Jancy. Reflecting on his background in architecture, Scott discusses why he believes design and leadership are synonymous. He explains how leaders can successfully utilize systems thinking for problem solving, stating that “solutions often emerge on their own with a little coaxing". Scott also emphasizes the importance of leadership vision while approaching complex problems. Check out his leadership blog at www.scottjancy.com"
- Biophotons: The Human Body Emits, Communicates with, and is Made from Light - "Increasingly science agrees with the poetry of direct human experience: we are more than the atoms and molecules that make up our
bodies, but beings of light as well. Biophotons are emitted by the human body, can be released through mental intention, and may modulate fundamental processes within cell-to-cell communication and DNA.” ~Sayer Ji at GreenMedInfo.com
- Energetic Anatomy: Everything You Need to Know About the Body’s Energy Systems for Greater Health and Wellness. "Unlike Western medicine, which commonly deals with symptoms, Ayurveda aims to treat the root cause, taking into account the whole, complete picture. It encompasses diet and nutrition, lifestyle, herbs, exercise, breathing and meditation techniques, and healing body
treatments. Our body’s energy field is the foundation of everything we do. It should be strong, vibrant and supple. The five senses are the instruments through which we interact with the external world. They should be clear and sharp. The mind is home to our consciousness; it should be calm, centered and at peace. The heart is the home of our soul; it should be open and free of anger and resentment.” BY LAUREN ECKSTROM & TRAVIS ELIO
- Finland To Become The First Country In The World To Get Rid Of All School Subjects - "It’s no secret that the modern day
education system, particularly in North America, desperately needs to be reformed. Children graduate from high school not understanding how to produce their own food, pay their taxes, or accomplish many everyday, “real world” activities. The education system’s sole purpose should be to educate us in order to better ourselves and society, but instead it just tells us what to think (rather than how to think), so we learn only how to assimilate and blend into society. Many children graduate
not even realizing that the system is broken because they’re so engrained within it. In some cases, they’re even fed propaganda and misinformation. Just take a look in any history textbook: You’d likely see that the Europeans founded North America, completely omitting the mass genocide that took place against Native Americans. Alternatively, if you look into milk education or the Food Guide Pyramid that’s taught to children at a young age in schools, you’d learn that it does not reflect what’s
healthy, but rather what’s profitable.” ~The Event Chronicle
- A State
Divided with Daniel Sheehan - Opposing views of our world are presented by mainstream, alternate and social media; each source claiming to hold the truth of what is going on. Daniel Sheehan explains that this is all happening, hidden behind an intricately woven false façade of alternate realities. - Gaia.com video - Open Minds with Regina Meredith
Mind-Body Harmony Understanding that
Everything is Energetic Vibration, Learning to see how the Mind creates Physical Reality, and why we are Spiritual Beings having a Material Experience - The Power of the Mind to Create All Reality and Maintain Health and Wellness: "A growing body of scientific research suggests that our mind can play an important role in healing
our body — or in staying healthy in the first place. . . There are now several lines of research suggesting that our mental perception of the world constantly informs and guides our immune system in a way that makes us better able to respond to future threats. That was a sort of ‘aha’ moment for me — where the idea of an entwined mind and body suddenly made more scientific sense than an ephemeral consciousness that’s somehow separated from our physical selves.” ~Garth Cook, Scientific American Magazine
- Podcast of Gil Fronsdal of San Francisco Zen Center -speaking on Mindfulness and Faith (in the Unity of All)
- Energetic Anatomy: A Complete Guide to the Human Energy Fields and Etheric Bodies. "There are many human energy fields. These include the physically measurable
electromagnetic and magnetic fields generated by all living cells, tissues, and organs, and the body as a whole. But there are also biofields—subtle or putative fields emanating from these pulsing units of life— as well as our subtle energy bodies, channels, and aspects of self. Here are brief descriptions of the most important human biofields.” ~ Cyndi Dale
- The Ancient Power of Chanting (Mantra) Validated by Modern Science: “By vibrating in rhythm with the breath
to a particular sound that is proportional to the creative sound, or sound current, one can expand one’s sensitivity to the entire spectrum of vibration. It is similar to striking a note on a stringed instrument. In other words, as you vibrate, the Universe vibrates with you. Mantras are not small things, mantras have power. They are the mind vibration in relationship to the Cosmos. The science of mantra is based on the knowledge that sound is a form of energy having structure, power, and a
definite predictable effect on the chakras and the human psyche.” ~Sayer Ji at Greenmedinfo.com
- Science Suggests Love and Receptiveness to Truth Enhance Psi Abilities -- Telepathy Can be Explained by Interacting Coherent Electromagnetic Fields: “The energy flowing within a person's bioelectric field creates a magnetic field around their body that has the
capacity to interact with other fields, whether from other people, technology or the earth itself (the geomagnetic field). This means that our bodies are like a transmitting and receiving antenna, capable of uploading and downloading information through magnetic field interactions.When you physically associate with another person, their magnetic field mingles with yours, and the resulting interactions cause equilibriumization—transfers of information and energy. In other words, when you come
close to another person, and open yourself to them, the information in their field can be "downloaded" into yours.” ~Justin Deschamps
- Trees help us Heal - This is how you can use their Energy. "Trees are the largest and most
spiritually advanced Earth plants. They are constantly meditating and subtle energy is their natural language. When your ability to understand this language increases, you can start having relationships with them. They can help you open up your energy channels and cultivate calm, presence and vitality. In return you can help them eliminate their blocks and devitalized parts. It is a beneficial mutual relationship that deserves to be cultivated.” ~Posted at

- New research exposes how biophotons may be responsible for the transmission of adverse effects of cancer radiation between individuals, and illuminates how the fabric of human consciousness may be based in light.
- Trane of No-Thought: How Meditation Inspired Jazz Great John Coltrane. In the 50th-anniversary year of the death of John Coltrane, Zen teacher Sean Murphy looks
back at the jazz icon and how meditation practice and a deep interest in Eastern traditions informed his monumental late-period work.
Common Misconceptions About Meditation Debunked - "The way meditation is depicted in popular culture is misleading. Meditation is not all about
finding a blank, thoughtless, blissful, untouchable, and empty inner sanctum. When people talk about meditating this way, it sounds like they are describing the mind of a zombie! Though sometimes meditating can bring a person to a place of blissful blankness, that is only one of many experiences meditation can bring about. Meditating is a process; even if you are “distracted” the entire sit until the final bell rings you awake, well – that final moment of awakeness can be celebrated as a great
victory on the non-linear path to awareness!” ~EvolveandAscend.com
Proactive Access to Knowledge and Wisdom Expanding our Consciousness / Awareness to be fully in control of our Heart, Mind and Reality - Water Filters and Filtration Systems Explained - Remove Fluoride,
Arsenic, Dangerous Bacteria, Heavy Metals from Your Water Supply. "A study performed in China in 2012 found that children living in high-fluoride areas had significantly lower IQs than those in areas with little or no fluoride added, and that long-term exposure to fluoride inhibited their neurodevelopment.”
- Psychology of Truth Sharing and Awakening Others with a Personal Anecdote
| Now That You’ve Awakened How Do You Awaken Others? "Sharing information with others is usually one of the first things we want to do after starting to wake up. But knowing the path and walking the path are two different things.The truth is transformative and belligerent by nature—it doesn't care about our feelings or emotions, it comes in and shakes us to our foundations. As a result, when we share our truth with others we offer them an
opportunity to change but they don't have to accept it—and often they won't. By this I mean, we can't really wake someone else up, we can't force them to see what we see or to understand what we do. All we can do is offer then a chance to unlock the truth for themselves, and this requires patience and collective participation.” ~Justin Deschamps
- The Kali Yuga and Ascension with Michael Cremo on Open Minds with Regina Meredith - Gaia.com - "Michael Cremo reveals an important discovery from the ancient Puranas which tell us how we can survive the Kali Yuga. The Puranic texts of the ancient Vedic culture defined the characteristics of the Kali Yuga, an age that will eventually lead to the end of humanity as we know it. For some, this will be a time of great calamity and destruction. Others will learn to access
their higher powers and restore consciousness to its original pure state, in order to transcend beyond the cycles of creation and destruction. This interview with Regina Meredith was originally webcast September 7, 2017. Michael A. Cremo is and independent historian of archeology who argues that humans have lived on the earth for billions of years. He is best known for being the author of Forbidden Archeology, and co-author of The Hidden History of the Human Race with Richard L.
Thompson.
- Now on Netflix - Unacknowledged. UFO Expert Dr. Steven Greer’s new documentary regarding the existence of Extraterrestrial beings living
above, on, and below the surface of planet earth. "Unacknowledged focuses on the historic files of the Disclosure Project and how UFO secrecy has been ruthlessly enforced-and why. The best evidence for extraterrestrial contact, dating back decades, is presented with direct top-secret witness testimony, documents and UFO footage, 80% of which has never been revealed anywhere else. The behind-the-scenes research and high-level meetings convened by Dr. Steven Greer will expose the
degree of illegal, covert operations at the core of UFO secrecy. From briefings with the CIA Director, top Pentagon Generals and Admirals, to the briefing of President Obama via senior advisor John Podesta, chairman of the Hillary Clinton Campaign, we take the viewer behind the veil of secrecy and into the corridors of real power where the UFO secrets reside. The viewer will learn that a silent coup d'état has occurred dating back to the 1950s and that the Congress, the President and other world
leaders have been sidelined by criminal elements within the military-industrial-financial complex.” ~IMDB.com
- Science is Ready for Consciousness: Federico Faggin, the co-inventor of the Intel Microprocessor: "In this fascinating interview Federico Faggin, designer of the first commercial microprocessor and pioneer in the movement to base mathematical theory on consciousness, urges science to embrace consciousness to explain the weirdness of quantum
physics, and use it as the instrument of scientific investigation. “There need no longer be a duality between mind and matter,” he says. “With consciousness you can reach reality from the inside.” He makes a startling suggestion – that matter is the ink with which consciousness writes its own self-knowing.” ~ScienceandNonDuality.com
- Light up the Incense (preferably organic) - “Killer Germs” Obliterated by Medicinal Smoke Smudging (Incense), Study Reveals: "The ritualistic use of plant smoke stretches back to the prehistorical era and is still
used, the world over, as a way of ‘cleansing’ the spirit. Now modern scientific research reveals that the practice may actually have life-saving implications by purifying the air of harmful bacteria.” ~Sayer Ji at WakeUp-World.com
- Environmental Impact of Vegans Versus Meat-Eaters - "It’s time we’ve had a serious discussion about industrialized animal agriculture.This destructive industry currently occupies over half of the world’s arable land
resources, uses the majority of our freshwater stores, and drives more greenhouse gas emissions than the entire transportation sector
combined. This system causes rampant air and water pollution, land degradation,
deforestation and is pushing countless species to the brink of extinction. And yet, despite all
of the resources used and pollution created, one in eight people still suffer from food scarcity. Long story short, saying that the animal agriculture industry is unsustainable is an
understatement.” ~OneGreenPlanet.org

- Life Lessons from a Man Who’s Seen More than Ten Thousand Deaths ..."Rooted in the
hearts of many Hindus is the belief that if you breathe your last in Kashi (Varanasi) you attain what is popularly known as ‘Kashi Labh’ or ‘the fruit of Kashi’—moksh or “release from the cycle of rebirth impelled by the law of karma”. Kashi Labh Mukti Bhawan in Varanasi is one of the three guesthouses in the city where people check in to die. Bhairav Nath Shukla has been the Manager of Mukti Bhawan for 44 years. He has seen the rich and the poor take refuge in the guesthouse in their
final days as they await death and hope to find peace. Shukla hopes with and for them. He sits on the wooden bench in the courtyard, against the red brick wall and shares with me 12 recurring life lessons from the 12000 deaths he has witnessed in his experience as the manager of Mukti Bhawan:” ~CoreSpirit.com
- Water, Energy, and the Negative Health Effects of Dehydration - "Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj’s marvelous book, Your Body’s Many Cries for Water, first published in 1992 and more recently updated in 2008. Here this
Iranian-American physician made and makes a strong case that chronic low grade and usually unrecognized dehydration affects most of us in the West.” ~The Event
Chronicle
- The Unhealthy Truth: Food Adulteration and How It Affects Us. "In an attempt to maximize profits, as any business
does, the food industry invented additives, colorings, preservatives, emulsifiers, anti-caking agents and the likes to increase appeal and shelf life. They engineered new “foods” hardly deserving the name but being tasty nevertheless. That’s why we fall for it. Blinded by things tasting good, we march into the shop and throw boxes and packages into the trolley, oblivious to what these products actually contain. Reading labels is a good habit but is followed by too few. How else is it that
we still see so many terrible “foods” on the shelves?” ~The Event Chronicle
- Life After Mind Control ... Thinking for Oneself Once Matrix Mind Control Programming
Ends By Patricia D. Curtis. "Breaking free from the barrage of mind control programming that has mentally enslaved us from the moment of birth may only occur with the complete and total acceptance that one’s mind has been completely and totally programmed from the moment of birth. And while some may be at a point where they can accept that they are slightly/may have been at some point mentally manipulated, few are willing to take the leap and acknowledge that every single
thought in their head was/is artificially put there for them, and that everything they ‘think’ about themselves, each other and the world is manufactured from a source far outside of them. We have all been meticulously programmed by the matrix such that we have no idea who or what we really are – we just ‘think’ we do."
Unity Consciousness Experiencing the
Singular Truth of Oneness - the Realization of All residing within the Divine Source - Understanding the 3 States of Consciousness: 3D, 4D, and 5D - "You may have felt the experience of deja vu, or simply felt through
a meditation that there is so much more to what we can comprehend. Just like we have different dimensions in this Universe, we also have different dimensional states of consciousness. These dimensions available to us on Earth are referred to as 3D,
4D and 5D. These dimensions are not actual places but rather they are states of consciousness. Here on Earth, we are all living life in either 3D, 4D, 5D or a combination of all three.
- Are you vibrating at an energetic frequency of 3D, 4D, or 5D? Take a look at Vera Ingeborg’s excellent overview of the different ways of
being experienced at each dimensional reality.
- Fully Awake and Fully Human: "There’s
a new conversation emerging in spirituality today. What was relevant thousands of years ago is not so relevant today. People are asking new questions that challenge the traditional view of the spiritual path as a turning away from worldly activity. People want to know what it means to awaken in the midst of ordinary life: Can we awaken out of the dream of separation when relationship triggers us? What happens to sex in awakening? Is there such a thing as an enlightened relationship? Does
physical health and well-being matter in awakening? Are work and spirituality incompatible? How do we live selflessly in the modern world? Does the ego die and how can we function in the world without an ego? How can money and spirituality be friends? And so on. This is uncharted territory.” ~ScienceandNonDuality.com

- Āsvāda: How to Dissolve Mind by Tasting Reality: "Kāśmirian Advaita yoga regards mind and its functioning as a natural unfolding towards the shining liberation, the luminous spaciousness
that we are, our true nature. This yoga relies on the recognition that things of reality and ourselves are one inseparable flux of intelligent energy that is alive, aware and pure in its original essence. We feel ourselves as separate. This yoga reveals us the vibrant relation between us and the world, allowing a mutual exchange. Finally we understand that we share the same essence with everything else: different but one at the same time in an unpredictable intimacy with whatever we live as
other. Non-dual yoga is this living connection and recognition.” ~ScienceandNonDuality.com
- You-Tube Video - Dalai Lama shares his views on what we
should do in the event of an external visitor coming to planet earth.
- Divide and Conquer
Tactics. Lisa Rene of the Energetic Synthesis Podcast speaks of the techniques used by the world’s controlling elite to maintain planet earth in a hostage situation and how Unity Consciousness is our path to freedom. "This month we look at the particular strategies being used against humanity, in the war over consciousness. During this pinnacle time in the ascension, we are aligning every light fiber, fully with unity consciousness. Our
spiritual family does not understand these warfare methods from where they are in higher realms. So it is up to each of us to recognize these Divide and Conquer strategies in action, and not unknowingly feed energy into them."
- The Spiritual Awakening Spectrum - "Spiritual awakening is a uniquely personal experience and can be easy, graceful and beautiful or it can be challenging and very difficult. All awakenings come on this spectrum and even the most beautiful will have elements of challenge and even the most difficult offer elements of beauty. In my life I have gone through two spiritual awakening
processes. The first, in 1991 was beautiful and magical. There were challenges but overall this was an initiation into synchronicity and flow. I met many spiritual teachers and channels that remained meaningful for the next 20+ years of the spiritual journey. The second was in 2010 and this was more a dark night of the soul experience which lasted for some 5 years. If you are going through an awakening process then this video is designed to inform and support you along the
journey.” ~Steve Nobel
- Initiation to a Mystical Life with Neil Kramer - 18 minute Gaia.com video- "Initiation, represents a new beginning and the start of a new phase in life. As such, it is a part of all mystery school traditions and it is an integral part of an individual’s
continuing conscious evolution. Neil Kramer discusses the need for initiation, and self-initiation, as one passes through the five main initiatory levels which are part of the mechanics for developing a mystical life."
The Trees Are Speaking - The Heartbreak and Hope of Our Ancient Friends and Guardians. "As someone who talks to trees, I find it incredibly exciting that there is now
scientific research to support what our ancient ancestors always knew, that trees can speak. The great work of the scientists involved with organizations such as the Heartmath Institute in California have proven that trees are dynamic, multi-faceted beings, capable of not only communicating with one another, but also of feeling emotion and helping and healing one another. Trees are capable of this kind of relationship with us as well, provided we ourselves are open to the possibility." ~ Jessie

- Thich Nhat Hanh on Engaged Buddhism: “Mindfulness must be engaged. Once there is Seeing, there must be Acting. Otherwise, what’s the use of
Seeing?"
- TRUTH - "Once the inquiry is made into oneself or others, the response must be absolute truth, for the creation of life cannot be achieved on a lie. Ever. Some say mankind is consciously ascending into a higher dimension of love, joy, and bliss – but that is not the case.
For, in fact, our present dimension is a dimension of love, joy, and bliss...and unfortunately lies. Lies are the function and the product of the matrix mind control machine and thus the sum total of all our present thinking. Once the mind has been purged of all low vibrational lie-think and the pursuit of an accurate self-perception of our personal potential and possibilities has begun, what replaces lie-think must be truth. Our transcendence into next-dimensional-man will be ‘into’ a
dimension of absolute truth. The response to the question, ‘who am I, Really?’ must always be the truth or life is not created. When the creation of person’s lives transpires in absolute truth, there is God.” ~Patricia D. Curtis in her essay, Life After Mind Control - Thinking for Oneself Once Matrix Mind Control Programming Ends
Our Physical Reality is Created by Sound Vibration: "Thus, there is a direct relationship between sound and light and in fact there can be no light in the Universe without sound because light is only created
when atoms collide with each other, and such collisions are sound. So light and life owe their existence to sound.” - Sound Researcher, John Reid So focus on making and consuming beautiful sounds ... and make the world a much better place that is full of Love and Light.
"As the divine light grows brighter, it
reveals what it contains, that is, divine life; and divine life reveals that the Ultimate Reality is love.” — Thomas Keating in Mystery of Christ
“Every element of the Universe is in a constant state of vibration manifested to us as light, sound, and energy. The human senses perceive only a
fraction of the infinite range of vibration, so it is difficult to comprehend that the Word mentioned in the Bible is actually the totality of vibration which underlies and sustains all creation. A person can tune his or her own consciousness into the awareness of that totality with the use of a mantra. By vibrating in rhythm with the breath to a particular sound that is proportional to the creative sound, or sound current, one can expand one’s sensitivity to the entire spectrum of vibration. It
is similar to striking a note on a stringed instrument. In other words, as you vibrate, the Universe vibrates with you.” ~Yogi Bhajan, founder of Kundalini Yoga
- “Everything in life is speaking, is audible, is communicating, in spite of its apparent silence.” ~Hazrat Inayat Khan, the Great Sufi Teacher, Musician, and Poet
"Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness.” ~ Alejandro Jodorowski
The Infinite Potential of the God-Spark within each Human: "It has been said that persons possess a spark of
God, and that is accurate. Every human being carries within them a spark of God. But where do we find this spark of God within us? One’s spark of God is inherent within one’s potential and possibilities, which is where we can ‘locate’ the spark of God within us. For are we not in the creation of life in order for God to know every potentiality and possibility within His being – which are infinite? Unlike God who ‘is’ infinite potentialities and possibilities, each person ‘possesses’
certain possibilities and not others; ergo, all persons are unique in their own potentialities and possibilities for being themselves. Like God, however, the potential and possibility to expand one’s potentialities and possibilities is infinite. There is no limit as to how far a person can develop in any given way of being herself or himself.” ~Patricia D. Curtis from her essay, Life After Mind Control - Thinking for Oneself Once Matrix Mind Control Programming Ends
“When is it ok to by-pass the Truth?"
The Battle of Two Wolves: There is a battle of two Wolves inside us all. One is EVIL – It is anger, hate jealousy, greed, violence, ego, discrimination, selfishness, cruelty, inferiority, resentment, and lies. The other is GOOD – It is love, peace, joy, kindness, humanity, unity, empathy, caring, affection, generosity, compassion, and
truth. The Wolf that wins? – The one you feed. ~Cherokee Proverb Have a Great Month, Strive for an Energetic Vibration of Love or Above, and Focus that Love Vibration through your Heart and Mind to Intentionally Create Your Desired
