Please copy this page and send it to as many as possible. Post in the cafeteria, on the water cooler, wherever people can read it. The wonderful gift of the crop circles is that they serve as mirrors for humanity. The designs are as diverse as the faces of every man, woman and child, and whatever you wish them to be will inevitably manifest itself to you, the viewer: do you believe they are spiritual awakenings, messages from aliens, sources of technical information, hoaxes, mischievous spirits, warnings? Tantalizingly, whatever answer you care to choose will be the correct one. That's the freedom of choice, and that freedom has been given to the human race for one purpose: to experience and to understand. Ultimately, that understanding should lead us to the realization that although we are individuals at a physical level, on a spirit level we are one, and so whatever choice the individual makes, the consequences will inevitably return to affect the very self, even if that effect will barely be perceptible at first. Technically speaking, the crop circles are a manifestation of natural principles - electro-magnetism, gravity, plasma (light) and ultrasound - harnessed by a benevolent intelligence which, by and large, has remained visibly inconspicuous. However, when such positive energy manifests, Universal law naturally manifests an opposite, for just as day has its night, so pure love lures hatred. As human beings we are linked to this process: brainwaves and consciousness are fundamentally waves of electro-magnetic or sound vibrations, so when changes in our mass consciousness or thought patterns occur, the consequences are bound to manifest in the world. Even in crop circles. It is my experience that something interfered with the flow of crop circles in 2001, a dark presence which masquerades itself a part of the phenomenon, and is breeding a cycle of deception and negativity. Because a part of the crop circles are a manifestation of consciousness, the introduction of this disruptive element mirrors a struggle for the control of humanity, for just as the crop circles are attempting to wake up humanity to its higher obligations, so inevitably humanity will be tested by opposing forces. I cannot think of a more apt representation of this than the two ideologies which, on September 11 (9.11, the US emergency code, by the way) clashed in downtown New York City with horrific loss of life. Time will tell if my feelings on this are true, but nevertheless it is my gut feeling and I trust my conviction enough to share what I know with the world; and much correspondence sent to me over the past three months tells me that my observations are not in the minority. It is already proved in physics that our thoughts manifest, affect and change our reality, and right now humanity is perched on a knife edge between two possible realities: on the one hand there are those who control the power of the West who wish to see violent retribution for the atrocities committed by a handful of cowardly terrorists. Clearly, the barbarism of these individuals should not be brushed under the carpet, but what kind of world will we wake up to by choosing violence as a punishment? Violence is the lowest vibration, the vibration of hatred, and hatred breeds hatred. There already exist enough people feeding on the concept of hatred to keep the basest form of human status quo in business for hundreds of years. Six thousand murdered Americans could potentially turn into 200 million Americans filled with hatred and the potential to murder several thousand innocent Muslims, who in turn will transform into 1 billion Muslims filled with hatred. Throw in a few weapons of mass destruction and.... no, don't imagine it, there's the potential for you to imagine the outcome. If you can imagine, you are already co-creating the next reality. That's how simply Universal Law works! But we are human, we have the power of choice. So what other possible reality waits in the wings? The other possible reality is one based on dialogue, understanding, forgiveness and unconditional love. It is the highest vibration because it is the vibration of Divinity, of God itself. It is the vibration clothing us when we enter the world and the only one we take when our spirit departs. This is the teaching of countless avatars and other enlightened beings since the first crystallization of thought. Love is the only vibration that will redeem the human race in its endless struggle for unity with God, and on Earth this struggle is represented in the myriad of ideologies we have created in own minds. And yet, that is all they are - idea-ologies - concepts of realities which we mistake for reality itself, each as individual as the next person and all of them correct, because ultimately they are all versions of the same central truth. And on Earth, we fight over ideologies. Except this time the potential exists for a war that will determine not what is right or wrong, but what is left. At this moment the potential for destruction is stronger than at any other period in recorded history. A wave of hatred has been allowed to encircle the Earth and it has nowhere to go except into the heads of people who choose hatred and retribution. And all the while the heart lies waiting like the largest chalice, empty, ready to be filled with compassion and unconditional love. What you can do. If we can just distance ourselves from recent events and images of destruction and pull back to see the bigger picture, two things emerge: one, behind every event lies the lesson, a mirror asking us to look at our selves and the direction we wish to take - are we going to further the vibration of hatred by feeding the cycle of anger and retribution, or are we going to rise above such base vibrations? Because right now, evil wants us to feel anger and hatred, it is having a banquet. And two, the victims of the attacks on America, in the bigger picture, are souls who chose to sacrifice themselves unconditionally to show us the futility of hatred. They have demonstrated that each of us sees things from different points of view, and unless we are prepared to tolerate and respect those points of view, the outcome is disastrous. Surely our biggest gift to their memory is to honour their selflessness. We can do this by working for peace - let us understand the core of this hatred and diffuse it. Let us respect each others' way of life, and that the only peace we shall ever experience is unity, and that, ultimately, unity is made of diversity not division. As difficult as it may seem, we can also consider forgiveness for the perpetrators - by their actions they reminded us of the pointlessness of hatred. Whenever you are able, send prayers and light to the decision-makers. Ask their guides to work with unconditional love, and send your intention for a peaceful settlement to those who are now considering options of war and retribution. Most important of all, send thoughts of peace and light to those who form the foundation of our leaders' power - in other words, those in industry who bankroll the elected officials, for it is they who hold the power. If we can alter the foundation, the top the building will surely follow. As far as the Middle East is concerned, Jerusalem and Baghdad sit along a portal of energy. This primal energy can be influenced by thought and intent, so it is now crucial that we visualize a line of energy running North East from Jerusalem, and along this line, visualize a dome of light covering the whole area. It is now imperative that light and love be infused into this area, helping all who live there to recognize that they are one and the same people, that their differences ought to be honoured, and to put aside the divisions which have caused no end of separation for some 2000 years. When, where? One other great thing about Universal Law is that focussed thought and intent travel to any point on the Earth in a heartbeat, no matter where you happen to be standing. So when sending out well-intended thoughts of forgiveness, compassion and unconditional love to those who work with power or terror, do so when you get up or go to sleep, when you have a coffee break or are stuck in traffic. Just fifteen seconds of focused intent a day WILL make a difference, by yourself or with a group. You can do it while standing in a queue for a bus, or riding the elevator to your office. Just a few seconds in thought dedicated to love and compassion is all that is necessary. And don't keep watching the media, because the media today works (for the most part) to whip up a frenzy of fear , and if you don't believe me, watch how many of today's news items either arouse fear or anger in you. Fear and anger are the vibrations that hatred feeds on, so it is important not to dwell on negativity. Alternatively, you can affirm these events not as terrible, but mere mirrors showing the kind of reality you DON'T wish. When you are confronted with negative media, detach, be compassionate and just senda thought of light to the situation. Believe me, this works. If you have access to the Earth's points of energy, use them. These are sometimes referred to as ley lines. Old churches (the denomination is irrelevant), mounds, Neolithic sites and other ancient sites of veneration are all sited upon the crossroads of such energy, and they were built for the purpose of enhancing your positive thoughts, because this energy is electro-magnetic and so are you. They are points of reference, a legacy built EXACTLY for this kind of emergency in the future. At certain points in the calendar, the energy that surrounds and supports us can enhance the process. I will keep posting new dates on the calendar as I hear of them. Here are the next ones: March 19 April 3, 18 May 3, 17 June 1, 15 July 1, 15 Aug 13, 29 Sep 12, 27 Oct 12, 26 Nov 10, 25 Dec 10, 24 Here's to you, the fearless and courageous warrior of the spirit: hold the Light. --Freddy Silva Thoughts and Prayers Below are a few eloquent expressions of spirit which you are free to offer to anyone, particularly to yourself. In fact, all the contents of this page are your property now. Use them as weapons of mass instruction, and help create a peaceful, loving new world order.. |

ORIGINAL PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me bring love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, bring your faith.

Grant that I may not seek to be understood, as to understand. Lord, grant that I may not seek to be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life.

JANIST PRAYER FOR PEACE Note: "Dharma" translates as "essential quality or character" Peace and Universal Love is the essence of the Gospel preached by all the Enlightened Ones. The Lord has preached that equanimity is the Dharma. Forgive do I creatures all, and let all creatures forgive me. Unto all have I amity, and unto none enmity.

A weapon, howsoever powerful it may be, can always be superseded by a superior one; but no weapon can, however, be superior to non-violence and love.

There is nothing that war has ever achieved we could not better achieve without it.
Can anything be more ridiculous than that a man would have the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of the water, and because his ruler has a quarrel with mine, though I have none with him?
Dear God, Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send, dear Lord, the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen.
Great tranquility of heart is his who cares for neither praise not blame.
He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.
I keep the telephone of my mind open to peace, harmony, health, love and abundance. Then whenever doubt, anxiety, or fear try to call me, they keep getting a busy signal and soon they'll forget my number
If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind... War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
A merely fallen enemy may rise again, but the reconciled one is truly vanquished.
A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own.-
Why does the Air Force need expensive new bombers? Have the people we've been bombing over the years been complaining?
Fear knocked at the door. Faith answered. No one was there
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it...always.
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success.
All we are saying is...Give Peace a chance
A human being is a part of the whole that we call the universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical illusion of his consciousness. This illusion is a prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for only the few people nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature.
They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason.
It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.
I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.
Mental violence has no potency and injures only the person whose thoughts are violent. It is otherwise with mental non-violence. It has potency which the world does not yet know.
An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come. The path of all religions beats with the same heart of love and oneness when the dogma is removed.
"God can be reached through many paths; each of these sectarian religions points out a path which ultimately leads to Divinity. Yes, all religions are paths, but the paths are not God. I have seen all sects and all paths. I do not care for them any more. People belonging to these sects quarrel so much! After trying all religions, I have realized that God is the Whole and I AM His part; that He is the Lord and I AM his servant; again I realize, He is I; I AM He...God is not only personal and with form but He can take the form of Krisna, Christ or any other Incarnation. It is true that He manifests Himself in infinite forms to fulfill the desires of His devotees. It is also true that He is formless, Indivisible Existence-Intelligence-Bliss Absolute." ~Shri Ramakrishna
"...It's strange how many people only picture God as transcendent, making himself known by shooting off thunderbolts. God is transcendent, above the world and beyond it, outside time and space in a mode of being which is beyond the scope of our imaginations to conceive, but the God who makes Himself known to us is the immanent God, the God who's so close that He's at the very center of our existence. It's strange too how much time people spend traveling round and round the circle of existence and getting nowhere. The real journey - the journey all people are required to take to achieve integration, self-realization, and fulfillment - "the eternal life" of religious language - is the journey inwards, the journey to the centre of the soul." ~Susan Howatch, 1992 |
