DUALITY AND MANIPULATION

It is a gorgeous day. Cool though, it is past 11AM and it is just above freezing. We still have two rows of potatoes to dig. Jamie has been doing the digging. I hope to help this week and we will get it done. We still have some Winterizing to do in the chicken coop. Winter could come anytime or not.

Have you ever wondered why folks are so easily manipulated? You must have thought about it during this political season. The advertisements are awful and very naive. Who could believe them? Yet they must shape opinion on some level.

Duality is separation. We are divided up into a myriad different groups. Every person is a member of a family, a gender, a race, a religion or no religion, a political party or view, a profession or occupation, etc. Each group has rules and codes, written or unwritten. Our ideas and perception of the world are formed by these groups. Every group learns a story about themselves. A story that contains values and ideas of their being.

Duality creates a we/other scenario. When stress is applied the other becomes the enemy.

Those who wish to manipulate people, for their own purposes, merely have to make up a story that supports one group and demonizes the other. Successful manipulators make one group good and all opposing groups evil. They are extremely clever and can actually change the meaning of words. Two examples you may be aware of: Cult, according to the dictionary, is a group of people organized around a particular religious view. Some time in  the last several years it has become to mean something quite different; something dangerous and sinister. This reinterpretation was apparently made to demonize some fringe groups that the status quo found dangerous. According to the dictionary any religion is a cult, but that is not how we see the word now. The other example is the word, Liberal, which was changed to equate with everything immoral and excessive in our society. This word is gradually regaining its original meaning but is still heavily loaded for some.

Because of duality every group is vulnerable to the idea that they are better than the other group. This judgement easily reduces to good and evil when any threat occurs. You can witness this in political ads, often the insinuations about the opposition are vile.

It is easy to be seduced by these manipulations, because we all want to belong. None of us can stand the separation of being all alone. Any group, whether it be a motorcycle gang or the police, supply a sense of security by their "weeness". There is great security in identifying with a group. Inside the group there is "oneness". The essence of this energy is positive. The exclusion of others, the separation, is the negative.

All through history, the manipulators have used our need to belong and turned it into a negative. They have been able to turn one group of people against another by making up stories that imply, that other groups are a threat. Your group contains the truth and all positive values: the other group is evil. People are so willing to believe that their group is good, pure and decent and, under enough stress, they will believe anything about the other group.

You see how easy it can be to get people to react irrationally. War, slavery, genocide- all the product of duality.

Yes, we have a need to join, to come together, but lets not listen to any more stories that divide us. All of us on Earth are one people. We all belong to each other and our source. Whatever your interpretation of our source is, it need not divide us. As we travel towards oneness, let us not be captured by ideas that we are separate.

The intensity of the light is reminding us of our oneness. The light is Love. Love will always dissolve duality.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
















 

HAPPINESS

I could have titled this DUALITY as that is the issue. Yes, the light is shining brightly and achieving happiness should be easier. But is it? The energy impinging upon us, also, brings up all our doubts and hidden fears. Soon you will see that is a blessing, because it will help you rid yourselves of negative emotions that have been buried for a long time. Nothing can hurt you unless you let it. The dark is receding fast, so letting go of negative energy will become easier and easier. When you have either a negative thought or feeling offer no resistance to it, say to yourself "this feeling [or thought] does not belong to me, happiness is the normal state of my mind". 

So it is difficult believing things are getting better if you are not happy. And this is a time when you may be flooded with negativity of one sort or another. Be persistent in letting it go and know that happiness is your normal state. This is the time when you will be successful because of the reinforcement you will get from the increasing light and the attenuation of the dark.

The Earth has been a schoolroom. Duality helps us learn very quickly what we want out of life. The difference between living a life devoted to the one and a life devoted to separateness becomes very clear. The choices you have made become clear. Now is your opportunity to focus on the light and be released from duality.

We are entering a period where it becomes more important than ever to focus on what you want out of life and withdraw energy from what you don't want.  Clean out your closets {both your mind and house}. Discard what is not useful. Let go of that junk you have been hanging on to because it might be useful someday. Somebody else might find it useful now. Allow yourself to dream. Don't evaluate them for their logic or feasibility. You don't have the capacity to make such judgements. It is good to have dreams; fantastic or not. Let your dreams soar. Rid yourself of limitation.

We are entering a time when our creative energy will manifest quickly. We begin by ridding our mind of the junk we have been holding on to. We accept love, joy and peace as our normal state of being. We will see how our dreams, individually and collectively, will take shape.

Remember: WITHDRAW ALL ENERGY FROM WHAT YOU DON'T WANT. FOCUS ENERGY ON WHAT YOU WANT.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

FRIDAY

Time is the most amazing illusion. It goes slow when your young, speeds up when you grow older, races by when your my age. But even now it has no stability, some days it flies by some times it crawls. Lately it has been flying; this week just shot by. Friday already; nice for people looking forward to the weekends. I am sure there will be many Halloween parties this weekend.

In my last blog I said something like, that after all the studying I have done, I have concluded, that the most important thing is to BE NICE.

I guess we all know that and we all wish to do so. However, we have our ego to deal with or perhaps relinquish. Our ego is the source of judgement. We can't be nice and judgmental at the same time. Then there all those emotional triggers that take us by surprise, we find ourselves ranting and railing about something, that on the face of it, doesn't matter. These little triggers are buried hurts, threats to our self esteem; we can react like our life is in danger over nothing. Sometimes we get up in the Morning and find fault with everything. We may try to disguise it, but it comes out in wry criticisms.

It can seem hopeless. You want to improve; you really do. The secret is in awareness. Don't try to change yourself; but do pay attention to when you are being a jerk. Face the fact that sometimes you are a tremendous jerk. A really tremendous jerk. Always be aware. You can use the idea of niceness. You know when you are not being nice. You know then, that your ego is engaged.

The ego depends on trickery and disguise. As you face up to your negativity, the ego loses its influence. Your jerkiness will fade with awareness. But you have to face it and not make excuses for yourself. Those triggers, that are buried deep in your unconscious, can be stubborn, but if you are willing to recognize them and realize "hey that is not the person I want to be" you will progress. Don't excuse yourself, face the pain and the embarrassment. It won't kill you. Allow the feeling to pass through your body. This is a deeper kind of awareness and it will end the tyranny of the ego and dissolve the triggers.

Remember we are one. There is a great surge of light on the Earth and each time someone sees a little more, there is more energy available for everybody else. When your neighbor relinquishes part of his/her ego, more light comes to you. We tie up our light by seeing and reacting through our egos. The freer we become the more help we give to everybody else and the more help comes to you.

So it may seem hopeless at times, but actually this is a great time to grow. Every person you meet is a potential savior. Every person you meet, you can be a savior to. As we exchange our light we attenuate the negative effect of our ego. A smile in a grocery store at a stranger, may save that person years of struggle. You don't know how powerful you are in this way and it cannot be overstated. Concentrate on shining your light on everybody you meet. You will expand your consciousness and help others immensely.

This is the time of great change. In the next few weeks, there will be significant revelations concerning the way things have been. We will be saying goodbye to the old order and welcoming the new. There will be considerable chaos, as the dark struggles to maintain some hold. However, you will feel a lift of spirit; ignore the negativity that you will be invited to see. November will be chaotic but pivotal. Know that the Light will far exceed the Dark.

 Love and Peace,  Gregg

SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS

It has been foggy and rainy the last couple days. It appears wet and sodden. But in reality we have received no measurable rainfall. Jamie dug a few potatoes yesterday and the ground is still like cement.

The more I write about how we can bring paradise to Earth, it occurs to me, that the most important thing is JUST BE NICE. The last part of this blog is an answer to the comment on the last blog. I can't answer the question why and I can only surmise the how. I am not sure we can know why as long as we are in this dimension. We do not and cannot realize unconditional love while trapped in these bodies. A few people have experienced it briefly and many more have received a glimpse of it. Pure unadulterated joy and love is in our dreams and we know we will discover it.

The origin of duality seems to appear as soon as we decide to separate from Source. We then continue to choose between being one and being separate. There is much to write about duality and I will cover it in the future. I will contemplate more on the answers to the commentator's questions. Perhaps I can be clearer.

ANSWER TO THE COMMENTS

How does one answer those questions? These are probably the most fundamental questions and ones the unaided intellect cannot answer. I always wanted to understand everything intellectually. Once, while meditating, I had the words go through my mind that, "there are some things so unknowable, there are no questions leading to them." It gave me comfort. I didn't have to intellectually grasp everything. Yet we still yearn to make sense and order of our universe. We still need conclusions.

I base my conclusions on others experience gleaned through reading and my own 'aha' experiences. You know, when you are reading something and it suddenly joins with your intuition in such away that you feel an 'aha', "that sounds right". But it all begins with what Aldous Huxley called the perennial philosophy. The skeleton of this philosophy, passed down by lore and reflected in the Garden of Eden story, is that man left source {God} to experiment with creating separately. He became so enthralled with experiencing himself through his bodily senses that he gradually forgot that he was part of source. In this story, Source or God is unconditional love, free to experience itself through creation. It is viewed as the energy, the plasma, of the universe.

As we forgot who we were, and became more cemented in our idea of separateness, the idea of higher and lower and better and worse entered in. Ego was originally only an aid to self preservation. Since our bodies were fragile and we were disconnected from group mind we needed a way of protecting our selves; of warning our selves of danger. Fear was originally a self protective device; a response 'in the now' to alert the body that danger was present. With the introduction of a hierarchy of humanity, ego became invested in maintaining the status of the individual and fear became generalized and future oriented. As we became more separated, the value of individual status became more accentuated and humans became ego driven. The egos solutions are always very primitive. It was originally conceived of as a protective device, pure fight or flight. Because we have become sophisticated, we disguise from ourself, that the ego urges you to kill your opponent. Your opponent is anybody that threatens your status. Therefore, we need societal structure, laws etc. You can take this thinking to its logical conclusions.

The flight part of the ego is raw terror; fear of being killed. This fear is the source of what we call evil and fuels the darkness.

Darkness is the investment one has in his/her separateness. Our egos invite you to put all your energy into protecting our station; it is always at the level of death. As I see it "we are one" and our collective egos form the darkness that is opposed to the one.

How do you know anything beyond what our five senses tell us? I have learned a great deal from other peoples "spiritual" experiences. Folks who have dedicated their lives to meditation and learning "what is" have much to teach us. In the end we have only our own intuitive feelings to guide us.

To sum up LOVE is everything, all else is illusion.

I know this doesn't really answer why. We need to keep chiseling away at these questions until the why is manifest.

Love and Peace, Gregg

BELIEFS

It is a windy cloudy day on Laughing Water Farm. It is not cold, but not a day to invite you to do outside work. I finally got my bulbs dug. The amaryllis hadn't increased in size and the gladiolas split into two smaller bulbs; must be a reaction to the drought. We still need to dig the potatoes, the ground is like cement. We have rain forecast this week.

Since we got on the topic of mindsets, I have been thinking about beliefs in general. If we understood how this illusion works, we would give up the idea of beliefs. We make the world according to our perception which is heavily influenced by our beliefs. We see what we have programmed ourselves to see and never see reality. We stay stuck, constantly reinforcing what we already believe. We draw the moat deep and wide around ourselves and it takes a shock to get us to see differently.

Most people reading this have probably accepted some version of the idea that 'we are one'. If we are one, any belief that separates us diminishes our goal of oneness. Ideas of higher and lower; better and worse etc. have permeated our consciousness. There influence can be quite subtle. It is time we examine our beliefs to determine if any of them impede our goal towards oneness. We might raise the question, do we need beliefs? What if we could just look out on a world of unconditional love?

That has been what I have been saying all along. The real world is unconditional love. We have separated ourselves from it and we are trying to return. Deep inside we know we live in an illusion that makes no sense. Deep inside we know paradise is reality.

We created the religions of the world, in an attempt to return to paradise [oneness]. Because of our belief in separateness, we defeated ourselves by believing that our particular religion or view of the world was the only true one. Therefore instead of working together to achieve oneness we are hampered by the belief that we are somehow more knowing than the other person. All religions and beliefs are a path towards oneness. Some paths may or may not be more direct, but if you have the arrogance to believe your path is more direct it isn't.

The forces of darkness have used everything to keep us separated. They have been very adroit at using our beliefs to keep us from knowing one another. It is paradoxical that they have been most successful using religion, which is our attempt towards oneness, to keep us divided.

Practice giving up your beliefs and just see.

Love and Peace, Gregg

MINDSETS

We had a little rain last night, an all night drizzle. It wasn't any drought buster but it sure is welcome. We may get more.

Jamie and I have been talking about mindsets. Everybody has mindsets. Some primary, some secondary. Ones from childhood; the abused child mindset, the orphaned child mindset, the picked on child mind set, the rich child mind set, the spoiled child mindset etc.

Then there are the mindsets that come with your profession or job. Whether your a policemen, doctor, minister, welder, whatever, you have a collection of ideas and perceptions that form a conscious and unconscious mindset.

Until you become aware of your thoughts you won't recognize the influence these mindsets have. Our automatic reactions come from our mindsets. We tend to see things in accordance to our mindsets. We alter our perception according to our beliefs and then the perception reinforces that original mindset. Creating a circle. It is like a moat around our mind that won't let anything in that challenges our original thought. We, thus, lock ourselves into a belief system. We don't see "what is".

In the 1970s, when I was a psychotherapist, a client presented me with a book. He said, the author sounds just like you. Upon reading the book, I felt flattered, I didn't think I had reached the understanding portrayed by this author.

I haven't seen or thought about this book for many years and last night I found it on the back of the couch. It turns out, that it caught my daughter's eye, and she took it out to read. I used to be big at recommending books. Over the years, I found that books have to come to you when you are ready. A book, that changed your life, can be a yawner to your best friend. Now, I wait for people to ask me if I have any recommendations and the books, I suggest, are well received.

 The name of the book is, THREE MAGIC WORDS. It was written by U.S. Andersen and it was copyrighted in 1954. The copy I have now is from Melvin Powers Wilshire Book Company.

To intrigue you, I will give you the opening paragraphs.

                THE FORGING OF THE LOCK

Somewhere. in some city, town or hamlet, there is a child being born. Somewhere pure spirit is inspired into form. And even now the Lock takes shape. Mighty is the anvil that forges this Lock, for it is memory of the Subconscious Mind. Light, sound , discomfort, pain, roughness. dampness, hunger, smells- all impinge on subconscious memory, forging the Lock that bars the door to the infinite.
     There is something both sad and beautiful about this- sad because it seems sad to see spirit deny itself- beautiful because self-determination is beautiful. For this infant, wherever it is being born at this moment, is free, even as each member of the entire human race is born free- free to determine his destiny- free to discover the source of his being and the immensity of his power.

This was an important book on my journey of discovering who I am or I AM. I hope it is still available and useful on your journey.

My dishes have soaked enough and I need to continue with my day.

Shine brightly.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

LOVE AND SERVICE

What would your life be like if you made every decision by choosing the most loving option? No rationalizations or over thinking, just tune into your inner self, your intuition, and opt for the most loving choice. What would the world look like to you? Can you imagine the loving energy that would flow from you and to you?

What if every military commander made his decisions that way? How about every judge, policeman, lawyer, doctor, parole board, teacher, nurse, social worker, farmer, factory worker, miner, corporation executive, banker and even your next door neighbor? What if it was the accepted and practiced ethical position to make every decision this way?

Simple, isn't it? Paradise would reign. How easy that would be. The light is intensifying on the Earth and we will all be making decisions that way. We won't have to think about it, it will be automatic. We won't even be aware of making decisions.

So how to get there? We make decisions now without being aware of them. We must bring them to our awareness. The way we look at life, the world, other people determines to a large degree what decisions we make. The way we perceive depends on a collection of statements and beliefs that form our mindset. Every discipline, profession, political affiliation, cultural group has a mindset. Whether your a vegetarian, an environmentalist, a global warming enthusiast, an animal rights person, a democrat, a socialist, a republican, pro-choice person, a pro-life person or whatever, it comes with a way of thinking.

As we evolve towards the loving society we envisage, we must become aware of our mindset and how it triggers automatic responses and influences our decision making. It seems like a daunting task. It isn't. Once you accept that these mindsets exist, you will find it easier and easier to follow your loving inclinations.

You will discover that many of these mindsets, you absorbed, were manipulations fostered by those who wanted control. Most organizations and institutions expect you to just accept beliefs without close examination. Because of our tribal nature and our wish to be accepted, we blindly go along with ideas, we wouldn't have, if we stopped to consider them.

 This is a time for reorienting yourself. The light is shining intensely. We have great assistance in discovering who we are without these limiting and, sometimes, crippling mindsets.

Love and Peace, Gregg

PROBLEM OF FEAR

It has been reported that the first thing Siddhartha {The Buddha} said after his long meditation is "it is all suffering". He was looking upon the world we are familiar with; this old world made from fear.

We need to understand fear. We need to relinquish its hold. One must first see that fear is what stands between us and happiness. When I say happiness, I mean paradise. For if we could collectively give up our fear, we would see paradise. For thousands of years, individuals have been able to reach this state and attempted to teach us and release us from our enslavement, created by fear. Many listen. They understand it intellectually but stay trapped.

The intellectual understanding is important. One begins by seeing the impact fear has. Fear of Death. Fear of poverty. Fear of illness. Fear of war. Fear of unworthiness. Fear of sex. Fear of incompetence. Fear that your odd; can't fit in; have a strange body etc.

Fear keeps you from knowing who you are and enjoying life at all levels. Fear does not exist outside of this illusion, we think of as reality. fear was invented by those who want power over others. As societies grew institutions used fear for control and profit.

Churches use fear of Death, Sex and Unworthiness to keep their parishioners in line. Governments use fear of poverty and war. Those are the obvious things; of course, those institutions use every kind of fear to maintain control. They constantly imply your unworthiness to run your own affairs and your incompetent to take care of yourself even your most simple bodily needs. There constant instillation of fear is self fulfilling and we, soon, are so confused we don't know what is good for us. We lose our faith in our intuition and our innate knowledge of life and our bodies and spirit.

Vast amounts of money are spent to protect us from the things we fear. Consider health care, insurance of all kinds. Billions and billions of dollars are made to protect you from what never happens. If there was no fear. we would merely have a calamity fund we could all contribute to, that would help if the need arose. A loving society would not have any problem in helping each other.

Understand that fear was a construct created by darkness. Fear is used to control every minute of your life. Institutional control is rampant. Think about it. Worse, however, is the fear that has invaded your mind. Most people have only a few minutes of each day where fear is completely absent. Those moments are precious. Know that your whole life could be like that. And without drugs or alcohol. Accept first, fear is not a natural part of you. Examine how it interferes with your peace. Determine that you are no longer going to allow this stranger to enter your mind and affect your thinking. Discontinue behaviors that open you to fear; for instance watching television news or entertainment filled with violence.

There is a huge reinforcement in giving up fear. Your experience of love increases with every increment of fear you relinquish. You open up yourself to the love that is flooding the Earth. Since we are one, every time you give up a fear you enlighten the rest of us.

A most beautiful world awaits us.

Love and Peace,  Gregg 





 

BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE

It is a beautiful day here on Laughing Water Farm and I am feeling especially fortunate.

Yesterday, upon arriving home from a trip to town, we discovered we had little water pressure; the pump was not turning on. The circuit breaker was not thrown. I checked the power in the line where it goes down into the well; we had power there. At 77 years of age, I have given up climbing down a twelve foot well pit to actually check things out properly, but I couldn't hear a click that indicated the pump was trying to turn on. I feared a frozen pump. The pump was only two years old so that was disconcerting.

I called for professional help. He couldn't come out until this morning, which was okay, as we always have jugs of water stored in the basement for just such an emergency.

He discovered there was no power at the the pump. On investigation it was discovered the electric wire was broken just below the splice where I had checked it. Redid the splice and, voila, the pump came on. When he checked out the system, he discovered the bladder in the pressure tank was collapsed. The pump came on after only discharging a gallon of water. Which meant that the pump was turning off and on frequently, which means more wear and tear.

The wire runs under the ground from the house and then over the edge of the well pit. {I didn't want to drill a hole in the side of the hundred year well well pit; the rocks were loose enough.} The splice was where the wire went down into the pit. It has been like that for several years but I knew that a well placed kick could probably loosen the splice. However, the splice was good; it was broken a few inches below.

Who knows how the wire broke; but if it hadn't, we would never have known the pressure tank was defective. With hard Winter coming on the last thing we would want would be for our pump to go out. Perhaps it would have lasted through the Winter. Perhaps, but I see it as a blessing in disguise.

Many things in life are like that. You react as if it is a tragedy and then in retrospect you see the blessing. Many years ago, I read somewhere, that when you are overwhelmed with life disturbances, to say to yourself "all is well". Keep repeating it, until you can feel the truth of it. It is an exercise that came to me yesterday. Water is precious to me.

I hope I haven't bored you folks who are not interested in these mundane matters, but we do have to take this illusion seriously. Knowing it is an illusion doesn't help when you can't see the door out of it. There is nothing like a threat to the bodies comfort or well being to get you involved fully in the illusion. Interestingly enough, it also, reinforces the opposite, the knowledge that we are much more than our bodies. We realize that most of our life is in our mind; in our thoughts, in our relationships, in what we love. We take the comfort of our bodies for granted. One can float along for quite awhile without any reference to our body. Until you get a pain. When you get to my age, you have a paradox. You know absolutely that you are not a body; yet, your body doesn't go along with that conclusion and it constantly reminds you of its presence.

 Have a wonderful day folks! Know that paradise beckons.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

THE END OF POWER

Power is the threat of using some type of force to get another entity to do what you want. That entity can be an individual, a country, or any institution.

One of the ways The Cabal has maintained power {through the United States} is to insist that only U.S. dollars be used in purchasing oil. Saudi Arabia controlled the price of oil as they could drive down the price by putting more on the market at any time thus threatening the economy of the other petroleum states. Such was the vastness of their reserves. The United States and Saudi Arabia had an agreement not to allow any other country to sell oil for any other currency.


The banks, therefore, controlled the world economy as everyone needs oil. All those interest payments and fees involved in the purchase of oil accrued to the The Cabal.

Anytime a country decided they would break away and sell oil on their own terms, they were punished one way or another. Iraq decided they would accept euros for oil. Is what happened to them a coincidence? Iran offered to trade oil for commodities. Are they being punished?

The oil producing countries have been champing at the bit for a long time and they have been more and more difficult to control, but The Cabal has managed to keep them in line, until now.

If my information is correct, and I believe it is, China is about to dump the dollar as the world currency. Without the protection of the dollar as the world reserve currency, the control of The Cabal is over. For the first time in modern history nations will be able to make decisions about their economic  future without The Cabal breathing down their neck.

The other big world changing event is the altering of the balance of power in the Middle East. The Cabal, using United States and Western Europe, overstepped their reach in attempting to topple the governments of the Middle East. The fake revolution in Syria was the last straw for the unaligned nations, backed by Russia and China. They have thrown down the gauntlet. The United States government has heard the warning and has backed out of its commitment to The Cabal. Israeli hawks are now isolated, it is doubtful they will go it alone. There is a division in the U.S. government, as many are still loyal to The Cabal but the military is siding with those who want peace.

These are huge events on the world stage and may well signal the end of the use of force in foreign affairs. Russia and China are not threatening to use force but they are indicating they will not sit by and do nothing. We will see what that means. It is clear that they have the worlds attention. Together they have a vast amount of economic strength.

The collapse of the dollar is at our doorstep. I don't think this is as scary as it sounds. There have been readjustments going on beneath the surface for some time. We are already in a world wide depression and it is about time that was acknowledged. The unemployment in most of the world is staggering. The whole economy has been propped up with "funny money", which are numbers on ledger sheets, that are backed up by bankrupt governments who have no hope of making good on the paper they have issued.

The only solution is universal debt forgiveness. We can put the unemployed of the world to work cleaning up the environment, that will give people work for enough time to come up with permanent and realistic solutions.

It is a gorgeous day on Laughing Water Farm. I hope it is as nice where you are. Love the world, love yourself and shine your light on the folks around you.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

A RE-ADJUSTMENT

I am sorry there was no blog today. It turns out that every other day doesn't work, because when  it falls on a Tuesday or Thursday I am pressed for time.

I will be blogging on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from now on.

On occasion, I may blog on Saturday or Sunday, if events warrant it.

Meet you at this point in cyberspace tomorrow.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

COLD MORNING

It got down to 19.8 degrees F, according to the memory on my thermometer. By the time I looked at it, about 9AM, it was a balmy 35 or so. There was ice on the chickens water [outside the coop]. It is the first time there has been any appreciable ice formation in their water.

Every Sunday Morning I drive to Ogilvie to get the paper; today, on the way home I was looking at the Fall colors, the yellow, orange and red trees and the golden fields of stubble where grain was recently harvested. I suddenly was overwhelmed with a feeling of thankfulness and a warm flush of love filled my being. I often have this experience, it is a reminder to be ever thankful. I have had this experience spontaneously, like this morning and I have brought it on by looking around me and giving thanks for everything I see. Try it. Thankfulness is a powerful state of mind. It brings with it love and peace and an enthusiasm for living.

Love is winning over the darkness on all fronts now. It is still hard to see, if your paying attention to the Main Stream Media. Each individual has to struggle with the fear/love dichotomy in their mind on a momentary basis. Although love is by far the most powerful force, you have free will and can choose to be afraid. Always remember, you are making a choice to fear. The more you realize it is a choice the easier, to let it go, is. Yes, you don't fight, deny or struggle with fear, you let it go. You know it is part of an illusion you no longer wish to be part of and you can just switch your attention to love. It gets remarkably easier as you go along. Each time you choose love the power of the dark is attenuated.

 Keep in mind that you will soon be out of reach of the influence of the dark. Our sense of separateness is slowly going away. Our bodies will continue to remind us that we have a separate identity, that is their function, but if you continue to remind yourself that that is part of the illusion that is passing away, it will not lead you to duality and its concomittant fear and judgement.

The path to paradise has always been there. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU. Hey, it is all familiar stuff. Now we are finally taking it seriously. Isn't it great! All you need to do, is go through life and know that all are one.


Love and Peace.  Gregg

A COLD FALL DAY

It is one of those miserable Fall days, cold and windy. A precursor to Winter. I expect there will be more warmish weather the rest of the month and in November. I certainly hope so, since we haven't dug our potatoes yet. Many times we have put it off, only, to find ourselves digging them in freezing weather. It seems that if you dig them late they keep better but it is, also, a procrastinators trap.

We have several other things to do before we can let Winter happen. Yes, I wish I could hold it off with the force of my will. I need to dig up my amaryllis and gladiolas and we need to get the chicken coop ready for the cold. Were putting in new windows, instead of just covering them with plastic, as we have been doing for thirty years or so. Progress.

There is so much change in the world, its amazing and almost none on the Main Stream Media. When any new thing happens, the news first appears on the fringe {out there web sites}, then it appears on web sites with more proven credibility and then, just maybe on the MSM. Most of the major breaking stories are still on those fringe web sites. When you go through these web sites you have to sift carefully, because there is a lot of nonsense. But the truth is often first seen there, so it is a problem of discernment.

I have a good B.S. detector but I don't like to report information here, until some credibility can be established by the reader. So I await more disclosure before I report on some of these emerging stories. The topics where major stories should break soon are: world finance and banking; the federal reserve; more on the danger of GMO crops; the identification and nature of the cabal; corruption in the drug industry; who is responsible for 9-11; and disclosure about the existence of extraterrestrials. I am sure there is much more I am not remembering at this moment. There is an absolute deluge of information.

So, we must continue bringing forth the new world with our loving thoughts. There is more positive news than negative, but it is harder to report on. {We love negative news, especially if it is sensational} Interspersed in the news are stories of peace rallies all over. Despite the war mongering of  some in the Israeli government, the people do not favor war and there are almost continuous peace demonstrations. How these war hawks stay in power is somewhat of a mystery, as the Israeli people want peace and fairness for the Palestinians. Of course it is much like that all over the globe, where leaders who support the cabal encourage all kinds of war and strife to increase their wealth and power. If a leader supports the cabal, they get support at election time. In Greece, Spain, Ireland and elsewhere the people are revolting rather than accept the austerity measures dictated by the big banks. The proposals may come through Germany but, make no mistake, they are dictates of the moneyed interest. In every case, the supposed bailout goes to the banks. The governments owe the money to the banks. They are only bailing out the governments so the banks will get paid. The money owed never helped the people and now they are expected to pay back money for the gambling debts of the banks and the government often in cahoots. The people see through this and will have none of it.

So much of this old world stuff is so childish. Don't you want to tell people to just grow up. If you look at the world with grown up eyes, isn't war ridiculous? How is it possible that we can kill others over the trivia of religion or greed? Isn't it obvious to everyone that appeals to patriotism and national security are merely manipulation to put money in someones pocket?

Lets collectively tell the world enough is enough. We are One. We can live together in Love and Peace. We will live together in Love and Peace. Pour your love onto the world and state firmly "it is time to wake up". The nightmare is over.

THE INTENSITY OF LIGHT

As the light sweeps across the Earth everyone experiences a rise in consciousness. Your ability to shine light on your neighbor increases several fold.

In our excitement and gratitude that we can see better, one might be tempted to point out to our neighbor how they can improve. Don't, it is only ego prompting you to comment on another's growth potential.

There was a time when psychotherapy was practiced by probing endlessly into one's past experience to unravel why one thinks and feels the way they do. This may still have some value, when the person who is requesting help sees it as the way to proceed. But it has to be their uninfluenced idea.

People grow by having the blocks removed that they made inside themselves to love; love that emanates from themselves and love that is pouring on them. The light is so intense now that these blocks dissolve by themselves if the person wishes it. All one has to do to facilitate the process is to add your love to what is already shining on them. See them as already perfect and treat them that way.

In my life as a psychotherapist I, generally, could not or would not see what was going on inside someone unless I was invited to help. However, that wasn't always the case, and if it was my will, peoples emotional struggles could be quite transparent. It took me a long time to realize that this was a gift that not everybody had. It went along with peoples tendency to open up to me without expectation or a reason that was apparent. When I was in training to be a psychotherapist there were many schools of thought and ways to proceed, it appeared to be an intellectual process. I thought therapist were using information they obtained out of books. I had a secret, I sat down with a family, my mind barren of book learning, and I could see the dynamics of the family. I proceeded by what I could see not the intellectual stuff I was learning. Later I realized all the therapist were doing the same thing. Just like art, music etc, a therapist depends on his gift of 'seeing'. The intellectual learning serves to polish and focus the gift, but you can't do therapy without it.

That was kind of a long aside, as my main idea is, people do not need their stuckness pointed out to them. Everybody has their own therapist inside of them. It just needs to be activated with love and now because of the great wave of love sweeping the Earth, we just need to focus our love on each other.

So if you are one of those beings, who has the gift of seeing others stuckness, see it and focus your love on the person. See through the stuckness to the perfect person that stands immediately behind. You will help dissolve the problem. Love is all there is.

Yup, "We are all in this together" {I couldn't help it} Thank you Red Green.

HIGHER AND LOWER

One aspect of this illusion is the difficulty folks have in giving up the idea of higher and lower. As is class, it is engrained in us from birth. We fail to see that every being has a valuable gift to give to the whole. Each person's gift cannot be judged against any others. Since we cannot see the whole, we cannot see the perfection of each person's gift and how it contributes to the whole.

Folks who mend cars are not higher or lower than those who mend bodies. Those who study quantum physics are not higher or lower than those who teach children the alphabet. Yet, society rewards some folks with privilege and ignores others. Why? How do these distortions occur?

At some level fear is the basis for all distortion but it can be disguised. Because of our fear of death, those who heal bodies are rewarded more than those who heal automobiles. Yet, ironically, for a huge percentage of our population, health care is beyond their means; but they need their cars to get back and forth to work. When your sewer is clogged, a call to the plumber will be made before a trip to the doctor.

There is not a simple answer. We have been imbued with the idea of higher and lower for so many thousands of years that it is engrained in our minds and etched in our consciousness. We have mind sets that automatically declare who counts and who doesn't.

I know it is changing and changing fast. Some people of my children's generation appear to have given up class consciousness and are ready to embrace everyone as equals. Yes, even the old entrenched programs are giving away and that is to be greatly welcomed.

But, much of the struggle with higher and lower exist. It is difficult to give up something that is part of your very identification. It is who you are.

What is valuable to the world anyway? Light and love. Your smile today at a stranger may do more to change the world than all the diplomats put together. When you can see from the center, from oneness, you realize that the enhancement of love on the planet is the most important thing there is. How can one judge who is contributing more? It is way beyond us now and when we awaken, we will see it is not a question.

In this way and in every way the world is changing rapidly. I would like to pull some things together to indicate how the old world is disappearing and being replaced by the new. I know, I promised to do that earlier. The time is not yet. Soon. To those who are paying close attention, it is obvious the cabal is losing its grip. There is evidence that the U.S. government is pulling away from the dictates of the cabal, e.g. the refusal to attack Iran, which would be an invitation to World War. Every week more information comes out, about who is complicit in 9-11. China appears to on the threshold of releasing information on extraterrestrials. There is much, much more. When I see good reliable web sites, I can refer to, I will share them.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
