Matters of the Spirit

Looking Back and Forward at the same time

2008-11-10T10:38:00.000-08:00

Back on 12-11-07 I made the following posting (Vision of Tomorrow)

That was 11 months ago. As we have passed the election, we know that half of it has come to pass. I don't wonder about much that I see in the future. I have started to become withdrawn, which I don't like the feeling of that.

Step smartly friends. Things are not as they seem and appearances are not as we wish them to be. I would suggest that you look forward with hope while bracing yourself for impact.

I would also be careful in your travels. The word Philadelphia sits very uncomfortable in me.

Silence

2008-07-08T09:07:00.001-07:00

It has been months since I have posted here.
It is not for a lack of desire to tell you of things. Mind you, I am a reluctant in my discussions.

But what can I say to you? How can I awaken a sleeper? I watch over the majority and see how you have been lulled into a deep sleep of which you can not awaken from. I watch as an enemy moves not even casually between you and takes from you returning nothing. Poisions you offering more poision as medication for you aliments. I watch as you are proded to fight between one another so that you can not see what is truly being done to you.

I listen to you. Your messages of prosperity and abundance while the drought is decending upon you. I tremble for the thought of you who will starve and especially for those who are starving now without knowing it.

What do I say to you? You are content, happy, in love and joy with the tribulation which is about to befall you.

I grow content in knowing that you don't truly care about the events that are ready to besiege us. So, I prepare myself. I prepare myself for exodus from this land that I am now in and ready myself to move west into the lands that are flat and empty. There I shall find the shelter I need as I wait out the time. Then, when you ask how did I survive and I tell you that I was ready and left before the world rose and fell. You will become enraged and scorn me crying 'Why did you not warn us!' To which I can only say - 'I did. You were to dumb to hear and slept at the hour of watch. I tried to awaken you but you wouldn't stir. So I left.'

Now, my moment of silence will begin - for it is upon us - how great it is what will deluge the thoughts of man. The storm that will stop the hearts of men is upon us.

Silent Symptoms: Food Allergies

2008-03-02T16:32:00.000-08:00

I am not a doctor, visit your doctor if you believe you might be suffering from a food allergy. What I am posting here is nothing more than my personal experiences.

Silent symptoms; that is the problem with a food allergy.

You eat something, a few minutes later, usually 15 - 20, your face feels a little warm. You might have a slight prickly sensation around your nose. Your eyes might even feel heavy. Mentally it feels like a heavy fog has just settled on your world. Perhaps you are getting agitated at the smallest things. Your muscles hurt (usually neck, shoulders, upper back) every morning when you get up. You have little energy. You feel like you are in a constant state of fatigue. People tell you that the world is a stressful place and that you might just be stressed out.

All the above a silent symptoms of a food allergy. A matter of not is that, those were my symptoms. I wasn't getting sick to my stomach. I wasn't breaking out in hives. No major external symptoms to warn me of the danger that was lurking. Until I went to the birthday party of a friends child.
I ate 4 hot-dogs that day, some cake. The hot-dog buns were made with whole grain wheat. I had a couple of beers. Not big deal, I can usually drink a six pack without feeling much. Then I had a couple of lemon drops (vodka and lemon juice). After I finished my second, something very very awkward happened to me. A very heavy fog was descending one me. I sat down, every once of energy that I had was gone, I was getting very very tired. I was also losing my vision.

What's the big deal you ask? You were stinking drunk! I would normally agree with you except for one thing. I was very alert of everything going on around me. I was talking to people about the way I felt. I asked for some milk. The milk could curdle the remaining alcohol in my stomach and I would vomit it up. I drank 2 glasses with no results. This made me even more concerned because if it was not alcohol, then what was happening to me?

I took me 2 days to recover from this ordeal and during those 2 days, I sought an answer.

My wife has recently realized she had a food allergy as she is now lactose intolerant. I looked down up food allergies and was presented with a list of symptoms. As I started to read into this list of symptoms, I noticed that people were commenting on 'being tired after eating' and 'always exhausted'.

I would eat 2 sandwiches for lunch and be ready for a 15 minute nap. If I would eat a larger meal, I could nap for 30 minutes. Yet, after I awoke, I still felt drained.

I kept reading, people were talking about 'foggy thinking' and 'can not hold a thought'. I knew that one first hand. 'Aching muscles', 'Difficulty breathing', 'itching face' and the list went on.

The food that was listed as the culprit for this crimes? Wheat.

Well, there was only one way to test this theory. Stop eating wheat all together (easier said than done).

When you first STOP, you come away from wheat, oats, barley and corn. No cereals, no muffins, no cookies, no cakes, no sandwiches, no onion rings (unless you remove the batter), you need to watch every thing you eat.

Here are things they DON'T TELL YOU ABOUT...
The first day I was off of wheat and everything else, it was a typical day. Day two I was hungry before lunch and the tuna salad (no bread) my daughter made for me didn't fill me up. Day three was the same way (same lunch also). Day four I ate my lunch (same as day two and three) by 10 am, went to lunch with co-workers and had a open-faced burrito. For of those who don't know. It is basically all the fixings, no wrap. One Saturday (day five), I was hungry, famished, felt like I had not eaten in days. The wheat products had been 'filling me up' but not giving me nutrition. Now that my body was relaxing from the shock it was going through, it wanted energy!
I also started taking phytonutrients to aid my body in recovery. I had read an article regarding phytoplankton and wanted to give it a try. Except I couldn't find the phytoplankton locally and didn't want to wait for a order to come from elsewhere. So, I purchased a container of powdered phytonutrients, a combination of grasses, fruits, vegetables and sea vegetables. I was mixing it in with apple juice and later cran-grape juice.

The results of getting off wheat?

Well, by day five, I was working in the yard and I didn't get tired. Something that has not happened in years. I slept soundly for multiple nights in a row, no muscle cramps in the morning, no stiff upper back, my focus has returned and one interesting thing occurred. I spent a entire day without my glasses on. I suffer from an astigmatism that I was told, because my prescription is very low, they tell me I have 'tired eyes'.

Food allergies have many symptoms that the medical community may mistake for something else. The fact remains, both the wheat and the milk are processed. They are altered from their original states. Once altered in this way are they really fit for human consumption? The FDA will tell you yes. Yet, we are starting to see the LONG TERM EFFECT of these alterations. Shame that the FDA doesn't wake up and see that the answer has become NO.

It is not that the foods are bad for us, the process which they go through is bad for us. Another food that is damaged and has harmful side effects is sugar. White, refined sugar. That is another argument for another day.

If you have any symptoms, you need to get yourself checked out. At best, stop eating wheat and dairy for 2 - 3 weeks. I challenge you! See if your health changes any.

Prior to the discovery of this food allergy, during the weeks leading up to it, one of my meditation session each day was 'relax, rest, rejuvenate'. I presume the universe brought the silent allergy to my attention because it is hard to relax and rest when you are eating things that are stressing your body out.
Now I can begin to reset and relax then hopefully rejuvenate.

Inside the Secret

2008-02-21T07:18:00.000-08:00

I had previously explained a piece of how the Secret works. I hope to expand on that a little and make it easier for others to employ the power of the secret. Also, I want to point out what they didn't in the secret. How to get past blocks that are keeping you from receiving.

First, you need something that you want/need. This is the point of focus.

Next, you need to examine yourself. When you focus on this item, do you in anyway, shape or form believe that you DO NOT deserve this item? This is important, because you can feel it in many forms by doubt, fear and anxiety. Any feeling that has a negative notion tied to it means that you have something blocking you. You might also created a wall visually by making it difficult to invision this item.

These are all triggers/blocks that something exists in your subconscious programming that you or others have put there halting you progression.

If you have this, we must eliminate it. The first thing you need to do is identify it. Now, be alert here. When you hit this trigger or block and your eternally demand that it identifies itself, it will. Obviously, it is a trigger/block that you are in current agreement/acceptance with. So when it identifies itself it will be very very familiar and comfortable to you. Except, it will have a negative feel to it.

One example in my own life of this. I was always struggling with money. I for some reason could never seem to keep money around. No matter how much money I was making, I had nothing to show for. I was living in the appearance of 'Poor'. I fought long and hard against it using various techniques until one day the Universe pointed out that it was in me that my struggle should be turned, that I needed to find the source. So, I demanded it identify itself. A very short time later I was driving when I heard my mothers voice 'Ooooo, my poor little man, what is wrong?'. Being the comfort of my mothers voice, I ignored it and dismissed it to an old memory arising. I again later demanded that the block identify itself. Once again, a short time after I demanded of it I once again heard my mothers voice 'my poor little man' , and yes, once again I dismissed it because it was a comfortable voice and feeling. This went on for a few days until the Universe smacked me upside the head as I was complaining that I wasn't getting a response. I realized then that those comfortable words embedded in me from my mother were harming me. While she was trying to be loving and caring, she was programming me for poverty. I had to disagree with the expression and reprogram the memories for something new. The new memories became, 'my wealth little man!'

How do you disagree with something? Just like that, "I acknowledge your existance and disagree with you. You are no longer welcome here." Now, it is like pulling roots. Some are easy to pull out, while others require heavy equipment. If you have those that need heavy equipment it will just take time of meditation and disagreement. Then one day you will get the break through and realize the ground is now clear.

Now back to the first step. You focus on the object, it is clear and tactile in your mind. You agree that you are allowed to possess the item. You agree that you are allowed to have the item in your life. You agree on every aspect of the existance of whatever it is you are focused on. You agree that nothing can or will get in your way. You agree it is yours and you are done and you release it to the universe to deliver it. The universe will.

Now, you might meditate on this multiple times until you get that "it is done" feeling where you rest within the sense of accomplishment. All of a sudden, it is in your life and you look back thanking the universe for delivery of what you created.

Now, if you are a person that has issues receiving things, we need to get over that.

They only times that i am aware of "not receiving" are as follows.
1) If an individual has done things for you when you were not able to do for yourself and you are doing things for this indivdual (giving back to those who gave to you).
2) You are giving to someone who you know can not repay.

Aside from that, if someone is offering something to you, take it.

Now, one thing that also helps in receiving is giving. The way this works would be likened on to a cup. IF your cup is full, where is the new substance suppose to go? If you give away a percent, then you have room to receive. Yet, when you "give away" you need to be careful of where you are giving to. Because you are still "sowing" spiritually speaking.

Now, I understand that many name-it-and-claim-it teachings talk about "sowing a seed". So, let me straighten something out here. If you "sow seed" in a ground that is in want of minerals and water, what you reep is no harvest and a ground that is in want because you have sacrificed and gained nothing.
If you "sow seed" in to ground that you know right now is "barren" of growth, yet the rains are coming, the ground is good and fertile and you are using good seed. When the harvest comes, you will gain back.

What I am saying is: Don't haphazardly give your money away. Wealth gives to wealth because they know they will get wealth back. Wealth does not give to poverty because poverty devours the seed and returns nothing.

I hope that I have given you some more clues into how the great 'Secret' works. It really is an old concept, taught in many tomes, mystery schools and religions. If you know how to decode it out of the text.

For you non-pagans out there

2008-02-13T11:58:00.000-08:00

And for those of you uberChristians out there, please make sure that you do not give out any valentine gifts, especially to women!

If you do, you are guilty of practicing an ancient pagan ritual in which you present the representation of the Goddess Venus/Aphroditie with a gift so that she will give you the gift of love (or sex).

For those of you that are Pagans and don't care. Happy Valentines Day!

Spirituality and Religion Part 3 (The Mystery)

2008-02-13T06:38:00.000-08:00

In the mystery schools of old people were categorized into one of 4 categories.

1) The Non-initiate. Your average every day Joe that goes through life not realizing that there are some things bigger than him/herself and is happy with the daily grind. He is told the basic story hoping that he will eventually move past it.
2) The Initiate. One who sees through the basic story realizing that there is something more. He is brought into the fold and the lessons begin to teach him on the higher things of the universe (or God).
3) The Psychic. One who has mastered the teachings at the initiate level and is working through the final lessons that give them the highest level of power.
4) The Pneumatic. Those who had master the teachings of the psychic and are now highly spiritual. Pneuma = Spiritual, Pneumatology is the study of spiritual beings and phenomena, especially the interactions between humans and God. Pneuma (πνευμα) is Greek for "breath", which metaphorically describes a non-material being or influence.

When Constantine the Great established Christianity as the "Religion of Rome", he aided in the de-establishment of the mystery schools that had up until that point been going strong. As a matter of fact, the Constantine was not baptized until his death bed so that he may continue doing his pagan activities and live his violent lifestyle.

Slowly, the mystery schools started to disappear as other emperors who took one faith more seriously than another alone with the political pressure of those who were dominate in the day.

What was the mystery? What was it that one religious system was placing so much energy and force into that could shake foundations? Why is it that historians of the time period stated that Christianity mirrored pagan beliefs? Why do modern church scholars and historians go to great pains to produce smoke in mirrors when it comes down to the history of the world. Why did the church hold on to the Dead Sea Scrolls for as long as they did until an uproar forced them to release it?

The mystery is quite simple. As a matter of fact, the mystery is a allegorical story told so that those who understood (those who had eyes could see and hears could hear) and those who were blind and deaf would not get what was being discussed.
Why do you speak in parable? Why do we speak in allegories?
Why is the bible not historically accurate?
Why does it appear that two gods are being worshipped? One in the old testament and a new one in the new testament?
Was there a Mystery School for Jehovah and a Mystery School for the 'One' God?

Is the birth, life, death and ressurection of Jesus an allegorical tale similar to the initiation rites of a Mystery school of Mithra or Dionysius?

Jesus is also a greek word that happens to have an intersting history and if you could see an 1611 bible page of Luke 1, you would be astonished that the word "Zeus" is being used when attached to "I" (J didn't enter the language until 1532 and added to Bibles until 1630). So, in Luke 1 we see Iesus in Luke 1:1 and Elizeus in 1:27. If they (the greeks) were doing a direct translation of a name, they would not have been saying "Son of Zeus", they would be saying something like Yeshua, Yahshua or Yahoshua.

Now we start to run into a problem. What honestly was occuring in the first 4 books of the new testament? Are we dealing with an allegorical initiate teaching from 4 different mystery schools of the same mystery a occurance that is possible seeing that there are variations of books found often in different locations such as Nag Hammadi and the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Another question that appears, is that why you can seperate off the remaining books of the new testament form the 'gospels' and they appear to be an entirely seperate set of books with an entirely different set of teachings.

Perhaps, we have 3 tomes or more that have been stapled together to be sold to the mass populace as being a single manual or tome in which a religion was built from and the mysteries that they were taken from diminished.

What was that mystery?

No matter what face of god or goddess you serve - they are all a reflection of the 'one' creator. The universal being, the 'ONE' without a name who shaped all things. Also, that this ONE is the beginning of all things and the end of all things. Is in all things and all things are in the ONE. That it permeates everything and everything is a representation of it. In the end, if everything is part of the ONE and the ONE is everything. Now does Psalms 82 make sense, that would mean that everything is the ONE GOD and the ONE GOD is everything. Hence the end of the mystery and the beginning on the initiate.

Psalms 82 (1 - 8): God presides in the great assembly; he gives judgment among the "gods": "How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
"They know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler." Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.

Spirituality and Religion Part 2 (Literalists vs Mystics)

2008-01-24T06:43:00.000-08:00

There is unfortunately one piece of the old Roman Empire still functioning and in existence and that is the Vatican. Holding on to the concepts of command and control of the religious movement you have the pope and a entire order of bishops and cardinals ready to execute the orders of that come down from the Pope. Yet, if we move backward in time we find that this religious order is no less guilty of fanaticism as the current Islamic problem faced in the middle east. That problem stems from the fact that they are taking every thing literally.

In passing on teachings from one generation to another, many times we hide the secrets, especially from those who we feel will exploit them for no good reason. Honestly, we need to stop doing this because many who use these gifts for darker purposes already do.
Also, many of them try to suppress the teachings themselves by encoding them in allegory thus cloaking them from the eyes of those they long to control.

It is an ancient secret to hide your most treasured possessions in plain sight.

So, let's break a few words apart.

In general usage, Agnostic generally means one who believes in a higher power but is unsure of; unknowing. Thomas Henry Huxley gave birth to this term in the 1800s. In doing so he took the word Gnostic and added the 'A' to the front. Thus saying he was 'A Gnostic'. Yet, given that he was an English speaker he had no true idea of what he was saying and gave definitions to the word now truly appreciating the fact that Gnostic means 'Knowing' or 'Knowledge'. A Gnome is a 'Keeper of Knowledge'. So, in modern terms we can say that a librarian is a gnome.

Philosopher. I think we can all agree that philosopher is someone who enjoys deep thinking and searching for the hidden things in the science that they pursue. Yet, Philosopher actually has an underlying meaning. A philosopher was a high ranking member of specific mystery schools. Translated the term in Latin means "Lover of Sophia" or since Rome has gone to great lengths to hide who Sophia truly is; the definition became "Lover of Wisdom".

As a high ranking member of a mystery school I am going to take all of the teachings and write them down. This way we can maintain the knowledge that we have already discovered without going through the same process over and over again. Paul complained about repeatedly going through the same process over and over again in a letter to the Corinthians (1 Cor 3:1 - 3) Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual but as worldly—mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men?

So to protect our knowledge, or information I am going to encode it or hide it. I am going to put it in front of you so that "those who have eyes see and those who have ears hear" what I am saying while the rest are kept in darkness.

There is only one problem with that, those kept in darkness outnumber those who are in the light and they eventually will get their hands on our codexes and begin to read them and when they do, they will take our words at face value. Not realizing that we are actually speaking in code and being allegorical regarding our statements. They will build and entire faith and religious system around our teachings and in the end they will kill us as heretics and offer us as sacrifice to their one true god.

Alas, when it is over with the literalists won out and the mystics ended up in hiding.

The literalists fight with one another and squabble over words while the mystics acknowledge that nothing taught is wrong. That all possibilities are actually truth to the one who perceives the truth. Thus the mystics, the Gnostic's don't squabble and fight with one another. Well, our initiates do but that is because they are still of the mind of man and have not yet adopted the spirit of Sophia.

In Revelations 17:3 - 6 it reads Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. This title was written on her forehead: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.

Oh the allegory of this statement. 7 Heads = 7 Continents; 10 Horns = 10 Empires or powers; The dress of the woman represents wealthy as does the golden cup. The MYSTERY isn't really a mystery unless you understand that the origin of all religions comes from a mystery school. Thus the author is saying explaining in general terms the teachings of the mystery school. Also that those who follow this school of thought will kill others who comes from different mystery schools and teach any thing different than her teachings.

Who is this whore that is drunk on the blood of saints? She is none other than the Roman Catholic church and ALL churches that splinter off of her. The number of people the popes have sentenced to death and the campaigns that have been launched in the name of the cross. The blood could fill the rivers of Europe.

By ALL churches, I do mean all that profess Christianity. They are all daughters of the one whore, thus they are the abominations of the earth. They like their mother whore themselves out for money. Those who run these churches are fat from the lambs while the lambs starve and are told to contribute more. They have all prostituted themselves out to the world and become an abomination to the earth. What have these churches done besides take, take, take. If they had any true power from God, why is not that power been turned around to heal the earth, stop the fighting, end the diseases and melt the hate? Because, as Paul wrote (1 Cor 3:3) You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men?

Look around you. How many different churches with different messages? How can that be unless they fail to grasp and understand that what they hold in front of them are tomes and codexes from mystery schools offered in many different formats. All off them are being taken literally.

Don't you wish that you knew the secret behind the allegorical tales? What is it that was being hidden?

Spirituality and Religion part 1

2008-01-17T09:33:00.000-08:00

When you start walking down the path of spirituality you can't help it, you trip over religion along the way.

Religion is a core belief system that has shaped nations, started and ended wars, caused divorces and the list will continue.

Yet, a point in spirituality is reached where you need to ask questions. Those questions, depending on your religion, can determine your answers. Or if you push beyond your religious training, determine your depth of freedom.

So, one thing I desire to do in this brief blog is to give you a few things to feed upon.

1Q) God is opposed to esp, clairvoyance, clairaudient, clairsentient, telekinesis and a host of other "spiritual" or "spiritualist" powers.

1A) Honestly, we Americans call our dwellings House, the Spanish Casa. Does the word change its origin and meaning? So when the prophets see the future (Clairvoyance) or hear the words of God (clairaudient) or perceives events (clairsentient) why do people claim the power "is of the devil?" Is not all things from the one who created and allows things to be created?

2Q) My religious teachings state that you should not allow a witch to live.
2A) The word has been and continues to be conveniently mistranslated to invoke fear and failure. Many scholars have translated that same passage as "not allowing a poisoner to live."

3Q) All 3 major religions; Christians, Jews and Muslims teach that there is something HIGHER for us to learn. That the BASICS are kept in the tomes they read from. YET, what happens when you find that ADVANCED set of concepts? The instructors of the basics are quick to cut you down. Some of my favorite Christian quotes are:
"To spiritual to do any earthly good."
and
"God doesn't want that close of a relationship."

3A) There is something beyond the basic teachings of the 3 most popular religions. That is what mystisism is all about. All three religions talk abou the mystics. Mystery schools were once established to train the initiate in the higher things of God. Old religions long since dead would teach 1 basic lesson to see if an initiate was ready for the rest of the truth.
That basic lesson was that all your gods and goddess, your Ra, Osiris, Seth -or- Zues, Athena, Mercury are nothing more that aspects of the ONE GOD. When you worshipped Seth, you were worshipping that particular aspect of the ONE GOD. Depending on how initiates handled that teaching would determine what was to follow.

4Q) What if: All three major religions are correct?
4A) If that is the case, then we need to find one piece of common ground to stand upon. That piece would be: "I am the Lord your God, I change not!"

5Q) What if: All three major religions are wrong?

5A) Are you ready then to find and learn the truth?

(to be continued)

EFAs and Your Health

2008-01-16T08:32:00.001-08:00

I am going to go out on a limb here.

There are many many ways that I use to try to heal something before I run in to a doctor. Partly because the pricing has got out of hand. $1000 for a IV, anti-botic and 45 minutes of ER time was a bill I once received for a feral cat bite.

One thing that I do daily is take 3 oils combined and a fourth oil seperate. The three oils that I take combined are Flaxseed, Grapeseed and Olive. For me, it is an easy thing to do, I don't mind the taste or the texture. I fill a shot glass in 3 equal parts of each. I then slam the shot and have a nice day.

The fourth oil I take is Coconut oil. I love coconut oil, it is solid below a specific temperature (some where around 76 degrees) and liquid above that temperature. It will never solidify in our bodies as long as we are alive since we average 96 degrees. I mix coconut oil in with a food like rice for breakfast. This way I get my oils for the day.

What do these oils do for the body? Well, for one they can raise the HDLs and lower the LDLs. They will aid the digestive system in processing food. They can help heal muscles, cells, blood vessles, they can help regulated insulin and blood sugar. They can help boost the immune system. Over all, some oils (not all) are needed by our bodies to function similar to oil in a car for the engine. Without oil, the engine would seize up. Does that not happen to our bodies?

Some have even suggested the addition of sulphur based foods with the oil. When some of the oils bind with the sulphur molecules they give an additional 'pop' to their healing ability. I am not going to name any of the diseases that have been stated to be treatable or in remission when the oils were combined with cottage cheese. I wonder if a certain tick based illness might not be effected.

I know that oil helped my wife out and she now takes it daily. She started having pains in the upper right ab region. It turns out that her described symptoms are common for gallblatter attacks. She had a stone. She started taking large amounts of oil, when the stone passed she was in pain and cried but the next day celebrated her liberty as her body returned to normal. No looking back, she stays on the oils now. They have even helped her lose some weight which she is happy about because they give one a feeling of fullness.

Now, I am not a doctor nor do I claim to be one. I only know that I am an organic machine that should not be eating inorganic foods. That is poisoning my body!

So what does health have to do with the spirit? If you are not of clear mind because you are poisoning your body, how will you be of sound spirit?

FDA says it is legal for companies to poison your body!

2008-01-15T09:17:00.000-08:00

As our society becomes sicker and sicker the almighty FDA has approved another way for us to die slow.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22663416/

DON'T EAT FATS is something else the FDA has told us, along with its cousin the CDC and WHO. Regardless that your body requires Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs)in order to properly function and heal. Those EFAs are found in oils like Olive Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Flaxseed Oil, Hemp Oil and others.

Give you an example of how important they are. I have an associate named Karen whose husband needs to get his HDL levels up. Those are your GOOD Cholestrol. Doing every thing that they could via diet to no avail. He starts using Olive Oil in his diet and the HDL quickly doubles.

We are organic machines. Why are we eating inorganic material? When you do that, it is called poisoning yourself.

Got to love the Universe!

I love dogs.
For many years I would claim to be a cat person until one faithful night years ago when I had this one particular dream. In the dream I dreamt that I was a sleep and that I was awaken by the sound of a dog barking. I sat up in bed (in the dream) and looked around. That is when I smelled the smoke. The A/C unit that was in the ceiling had caught on fire and the rafters and roof were burning. The dog had smelled the smoke and awoke me to alert me to the fire. I awoke in reality to a house that WAS NOT filled with smoke and WAS NOT on fire. YET left an awkward feeling in me. A few days later I made the decision (the universe actually planted more - GET A DOG evidence in my way but I don't want to cover ALL of that) and took the family to the Animal Shelter. After much research (what dogs are good with children) and lots of looking at the available dogs we adopted Jack, a Black Lab/Chow mix that is still with us to this day (Grey beard and all!)

Recently I have been missing an older dog I owned years ago named Charlie. Charlie was a beautiful and loving American Mastiff. Charlie was with us for a few months before he passed away. He was a rescued dog, it was a shock to come home and find him dead where he lay. It hurt deeply to bury him!

In my thoughts and desires to own another American Mastiff, I have also been contemplating getting a puppy. With a puppy I can raise him to my standards and commands. I normally prefer to rescue a dog, yet many of them are set in their ways and not impossible to teach - just difficult to teach.

Well, these thoughts have been feed into the universal stream for about 3 or 4 months now. I never placed an acceptance or denial on it and really was not paying it much attention except the fond memories of Charlie. During Christmas, my beloved wife shed a tear for Charlie as we walked through a Christmas tree lot. My wife who hand makes wreaths, would collect clippings from the tree lots, Charlie would walking into the room my wife was making wreaths in, collapse in to that pile of tree clippings and roll around in that evergreen smelling pile.

Perhaps it was the combination of the two memories....
Perhaps it was the universe setting are hearts up....
Perhaps it was...................

Today my wife is out walking around the neighborhoods with a friend of hers. She notices a puppy playing in a yard and thinks it is an American Mastiff. She walks over to pet it when the lady of the house steps out. She calls to the owner, complimenting her on what a beautiful puppy and asks what type pup it is. The owner answers that she doesn't know. It was abandoned two weeks or more ago in the street. They took it in and that it had needed to be bottle fed for awhile. Then came the question that floored my wife "Do you want him?"

It turns out that the man of the house didn't want another dog and this puppy was already the size of their "small poodles". So, she was looking for a new home for this little guy.

Any one want to take a quess what the wife did next? That is right - she called me, explained the situation.
After questioning her on coat color, ear design, paw size...I have determined without seeing it that it is either a American Mastiff mutt or pup. Why was it abandoned when it was so small that it still needed its mother is beyond me. The abandonment that it received was harsh and uncalled for. Yet this lucky little guy found a temporary home with someone who knew how to raise an infant pup. Perhaps he should be named "Damn Lucky."

Any one want to guess what came home with her that afternoon?

Got to love the Universe!

We decided to call him Daniel. Which when properly translated means "Damn Lucky!"

*** Daniel \Dan"i*el\, n. A Hebrew prophet distinguished for sagacity and ripeness of judgment in youth; hence, a sagacious and upright judge

UPDATE: 1/12/08 9:01 AM EST
Well, since I got home yesterday and got a good look at Daniel, I can honestly say it is difficult to judge what breeds he comes from. He is still a small puppy. He does have distinguished markings that belong to the Mastiff and marking the belong to the bull dogs. His nose is straight and he has not developed the jowles that expect from bull dogs so I wonder what else might he be mixed with. What ever he is mixed with, I am going to have to watch him grow to determine if he has Mastiff in him.
One thing is for certain, I can't get rid of him. He won the hearts of every one else. So, once again, he is "Damn Lucky!"
Knowing the Universe, he has Mastiff in him.

Law of Agreements

2008-01-08T12:06:00.000-08:00

A thought gently flows through your mind. Without an hesitation you dismiss it and move on.
A feeling of dread overcomes you and you subcum to the emotions of fear and loss that it is generating.
An illness moves to take over your body and you acknowledge its presence.

In the above examples, consciously or not, you made an agreement.

Previously I have presented how the Law of Permissions work. Now, if the law of permissions is a key, the law of agreements, a sub law to the law of permission would be the teeth of the key.

Daily we are bombarded by thoughts in which we must either grant or deny permission. Yet, if you have a permission, some times the forces might try to compromise your permission by setting up an agreement with you. If you give no thought to this agreement then you leave it to the law of averages to intervene and make a decision.
If you do not agree (this is different from disagree) then you are denying to rights.
If you agree then you are allowing the rights

If you want to remove and agreement, then you need to disagree with something you once agreed with.

Let's take money for example. Many people feel that they do not make enough money. During a testing period of the law of agreements, I constantly mediated that I disagree that I don't make enough money and agree that I make more than enough money. I agree that I have an abundance of money. Now I would spend 30 minutes a day meditating on these agreements. I would do it during my 15 minute drive to work and my 15 minute drive home from work.

Result in my own life? 22% increase in my income over a 60 day period of time.

I got a song stuck in my head....I did not agree that the song had permission to play over and over again in my head. Within seconds the song was unstuck.

Did you agree with yourself that you would never understand math?
Did you agree with yourself that you would never understand a foreign language?
Did you agree with yourself that you would never get any where in life?

Are these agreements a reality in your life?

Why do winners always win? Why do people constantly win contests? Because they don't agree with losing!

What makes Tom Brady an exceptional quarterback? Does he agree with failing?
Why do some critically ill patients recover? Did they agree to lose to the disease?

You may have extended permissions out there to cover something and protect something. Now it is time to analize the agreements you set out. When you look at your agreements, you might find where YOU are cutting YOURSELF off at the knees.

Agree with the good things, disagree with the negative. Watch what happens in your life.

Adsense

2008-01-03T04:48:00.000-08:00

I get Google Adsense turned on and I look at the blog to find an ad that states "Why the rapture is a lie?" and goes on to advertise a book on the return of Jesus in 2008. The web site talks about the destruction of America over the coming year.

I wonder how the author will feel this time next year!

So, just FYI, I don't get to pick the advertisements Google puts on here.

New Year, New Look!

2008-01-02T12:48:00.000-08:00

Jim Davis, creator of the Garfield comics illustrated a comic once where Jon (Garfield's owner) comes rushing in and awakens Garfield announcing the New Year. Garfield extends his paw out, rubs two digits together and in illustration appears to be an annoyed tone states "So this is {year}, feels the same."

Thus for decades now I have extended two fingers out and rubbed them together mocking the change of seasons and utter those now infamous words from Garfield.

Not this year! I refrained for a multitude of reasons. Among them is the knowledge that this year IS NOT THE SAME! This year will be filled with so many pains that modern methods of living will be altered forever.

How are we greeted? How does our year begin?

The price of OIL hit $100.00 a barrel this afternoon. This is the first in history for this price mark. Unfortunately for us, it will not be the last.
The stock market dropped over 200 points.

This year is not beginning on a good note...How will it end? With an election!

Knowing full well that we have deep subjects to discuss, as well as dark matters to concern ourselves with I have changed the template of the blog to be a little brighter, cheerier, happy.

Smile. Unless you are willing to step up to the plate and change the future, it is all you can do.

Looking at Tomorrow

2007-12-31T06:32:00.000-08:00

One the doorstep of 2008 ask yourself a few questions.

What do you want for tomorrow? Meditate on it.
What do you want for the country? Meditate on it.
What do you want for the world? Meditate on it.

Perhaps we can change what may be.
Perhaps we can alter the destiny that lies before us.
Perhaps we can manifest a new destiny.

If you can learn to alter tomorrow....I can teach you to change next year today.
If you can learn to alter next year, we can change the decade to come.

It only takes three of us to alter the world...What can twelve do? Twenty-Two? A Hundred?

The Sumarians believed that the future was not yet manifest, the past a shadow that can be changed and improved since you knew what went wrong. The most important part was the present. To the Sumarians the present was the point in time where the future becomes the past.

Yet, a modern song writer put it a little more beautiful.

What kind of world do you want?
Think anything!
Let's start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Becareful what you wish for.
History starts NOW!

A Quick Word About Agreements

2007-12-20T06:43:00.000-08:00

The other day I am in discussion with a friend regarding permissions when I made the statement that you can change the word permissions and call them agreements then perhaps an individual will grasp the concept easier.

Upon reflection of that statement I realize that I am wrong. The truth is that Agreements is a basic sub-law of Permissions and that it is equally as powerful. It is the the selection expert of what events within a permission you are willing to allow happen/not happen.

As I meditated on that further, I found the power of agreements growing and I sat daily training my mind and spirit to agree and disagree with events I found things starting to happen that stopped. Fears starting to arise would diminish when I informed them that I don't agree with them. It was an interesting feeling. I am going to dive deep into this with an essay once we get past the holy days.

Truth about Sin

2007-12-14T12:38:00.000-08:00

Now let us see what the word impeccability means. Impeccability means "without sin." Impeccable comes from the Latin pecatus, which means "sin." The im in impeccable means "without," so impeccable means "without sin." Religions talk about sin and sinners, but let's understand what it really means to sin. A sin is anything that you do which goes against yourself. Everything you feel or believe or say that goes against yourself is sin. You go against yourself when you judge or blame yourself for anything. Being without sin is exactly the opposite. Being impeccable is not going against yourself. When you are impeccable, you take responsibility for your actions, but you do not judge or blame yourself.
From this point of view, the whole concept of sin changes from something moral or religious to something commonsense. Sin begins with rejections of yourself. Self-rejection is the biggest sin that you commit. In religious terms self-rejection is a "mortal sin," which leads to death. Impeccability, on the other hand, leads to life.

Vision of tomorrow

2007-12-11T07:15:00.000-08:00

For those out there that know me, you know then that up coming Presidential election is the election that has had me the most concerned for years. It has been a terrible thinking and feeling that what we are looking at is the end of many ways of life.

I have felt that if 2008 election is so critical in the universe that events it could bring about are either going to be detrimental or promising. We are at the fork in the road.

Before I go any further, I just want to put a disclaimer in here that the individual I am about to discuss that was in my vision, I have no problem with their race/religion/color/sex. Some times when they are the first at attempting some thing, they just may not be the right one needed to do us good. It is not that I do not believe that we as a people or nation are not ready for either a woman or black President, it might just be the individual representing that sex/color that we are not ready for.

My vision was that Obama had won the Presidency. When the announcement came in that he had won I turned to my wife and told her that we needed to get ready to leave.

Within the first two years of his Presidency, his inexperience in politics showed and we as a nation went from a recession into a depression. Policies of standardization started to be passed and we as a nation took on the look and feel of a European Socialist nation. The feel was nearly of the old Eastern Block type countries.

There was a protest in which college students were demonstrating their refusal to conform to the new policies and were displaying an open act of rebellion. The National Guard was called in and it ended in a repeat of Kent State. The primary difference is that the NG was ordered to fire on the students and there were hundreds of students murdered. It was then that America woke up and realized that it had made a mistake, but it was too late. Totalitarianism was already in place.

Was it a glimpse of what might happen if the card table tips one direction or another?

Or is it warning.

Again, I have a 50/50 chance on this - I hope I am wrong.

A lesson on Etymology

2007-11-29T13:14:00.000-08:00

Welcome to the 21st century. I would like to congratulate you on your journey this far as a society. Yet, we need to address a few issues. Especially with this language they are calling ENGLISH.

To begin with, I would like to address what is known as Etymology. Etymology is the study of words, especially the origins and meanings of the words.

Let me give you an example. Now please keep in mind that I am not attending to offend any one, I am just going to use words that have recently altered their meanings. Recently, being a relative term, I referencing the past 50 years. Shall we begin?

Temper: According to Princeton, the relative definitions for the word Temper would be.
1. anneal: toughen (steel or glass) by a process of gradually heating and cooling; "temper glass"
2. pique: a sudden outburst of anger; "his temper sparked like damp firewood"
3. harden by reheating and cooling in oil; "temper steel"
4. a characteristic (habitual or relatively temporary) state of feeling; "whether he praised or cursed me depended on his temper at the time"; "he was in a bad humor"
5. adjust the pitch (of pianos)
6. a disposition to exhibit uncontrolled anger; "his temper was well known to all his employees"
7. make more temperate, acceptable, or suitable by adding something else; moderate; "she tempered her criticism"
8. the elasticity and hardness of a metal object; its ability to absorb considerable energy before cracking
9. chasten: restrain or temper

Look at definition number nine and definition number six. The appear to be at odds with each other. You have one definition speaking of chasten and restrain and another definition speaking of releasing anger.
So, what then does the word Temper mean? Well, it is actually a Latin word as is much of the English language. The origin is temperantia which means moderation, self-control and temperance and is the origin of the English word temperance as the abbreviated slang version temper.

Shall we try another word that has recently altered its definition? Let us examine the word gay.

Gay: According to Princeton, the relative definitions for the word Gay would be.

1. cheery: bright and pleasant; promoting a feeling of cheer; "a cheery hello"; "a gay sunny room"; "a sunny smile"
2. full of or showing high-spirited merriment; "when hearts were young and gay"; "a poet could not but be gay, in such a jocund company"- Wordsworth; "the jolly crowd at the reunion"; "jolly old Saint Nick"; "a jovial old gentleman"; "have a merry Christmas"; "peals of merry laughter"; "a mirthful ...
3. given to social pleasures often including dissipation; "led a gay Bohemian life"; "a gay old rogue with an eye for the ladies"
4. brave: brightly colored and showy; "girls decked out in brave new dresses"; "brave banners flying"; "`braw' is a Scottish word"; "a dress a bit too gay for her years"; "birds with gay plumage"
5. offering fun and gaiety; "a festive (or festal) occasion"; "gay and exciting night life"; "a merry evening"
6. homosexual: someone who practices homosexuality; having a sexual attraction to persons of the same sex
7. homosexual or arousing homosexual desires

Given the first five definitions, number six and seven seem to be at odds with the others. The reason is that the term of “GAY” was used in the context of definition number four to describe the way some homosexual males would dress, especially if they decided to dress in drag (another word that can be researched). So, as one word was used in its proper terminology to describe the actions of another, it was adopted by those individuals as a word to continue to describe themselves to the point where the meaning changed within society to give reference only to a life style choice and not the other five definitions that are available for the same word.

There are countless words whose definitions are lost because of changes with in society. Now, take those exact same words and attempt to translate them into a language that may or may not have a matching word. We run in to a language barrier.

Biblically, my favorite barrier is found in the book of John. John 21: 15 – 17 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." Again Jesus said, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Take care of my sheep." The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my sheep.

The word I would like you to examine is the word LOVE. Here, in these three verses, we have two problems. Problem number one is a translation problem of the word love and problem number two comes from the lost translation. The lost translation changes the impact of the dialog.

It should read as follows: When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you truly agapao me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I phileo you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." Again Jesus said, "Simon son of John, do you truly agapao me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that I phileo you." Jesus said, "Take care of my sheep." The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you phileo me?" He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I phileo you." Jesus said, "Feed my sheep.

Agapao means: to love (in a social or moral sense) or as the Christians have adopted, to love with a God like love.
Phileo means: to be a friend to (fond of (an individual or an object), i.e. have affection for; specially, to kiss (as a mark of tenderness) -- kiss, love. Also it has come to mean a brotherly like love. Hence the reason Philadelphia is named the city of Brotherly love.

Those two words mean everything to the interchange going on. Because Jesus was trying to get Peter to meet him at his level, at the level of a great God like love. Peter could not reach that level and kept responding that he loves Jesus like a brother. Finally, after two attempts, Jesus gives in and asks Peter if he loves him like a brother, to which Peter responded that he did. The impact is, that shortly there after Jesus ascended into the heavens and the holy spirit was poured out on the earth giving man the ability to have that agapao love. This discussion was the last time that God met man at mans level of understand. Now all the tools are in place for man to met God at God’s level of understanding.

If words can so dynamically change and take with them the meanings of sentences. Then what has happened when you cross words over centuries and languages and dialects. Suffer through captivity by other nations and as a language and a nation, grow up? Are those 66 “infallible” books really then at that point infallible? Or is there current meaning lost by literalists and traditionalists who are not willing to do the research to find out what was exactly meant. Or can it be that many who are trying to show the light are being silenced because it is not in keeping with current theology. What happens to the order that was created if it is found out that they are/were wrong?

In Genesis 1:1 it says: In the beginning God created heaven and earth.

The word used here for heaven is Shamayim (pronounced: Shaw-mah’-yim). Which roughly means in todays terms, air, astrologer, heaven(-s), heights, elevations

The Sumerians used the word AN to mean Heaven or ANUNNAKI. The word ANUNNAKI has also been translated as meaning Heavenly beings or GODS. The “heavenly one” the head God was refered to as “ANU”.

Aether is the greek word meaning that which fills the upper regions. Or the element that heaven is composed of. It is also in some circles considered to be the fifth and most powerful element that is used in the creation of every thing. So, you would have Heaven, Earth, Fire, Water and Air as being the five elements that make up everything.

But, the Hebrews have more than one word for Heaven. As a matter of fact they have 3. Shamayim, Shahak and Marom. Shamayim as discussed means air or high places. Shahak means sky, clouds. Marom is interchangeable with Shamayim in meaning the same with one additional definition, wheel. Please take note at this time that the Hebrews do not have a word that translates into "The place where God resides".

The Hebrews with their multiple words used Shamayim for a particular reason. In the beginning, God created the high places and the earth. The greeks utilized the dual meaning of Aether also for a reason. They believed that an element fills the high places which they called Aether. So, in the beginning God created Aether and Earth.

When the book of Genesis described the creation process, the main building blocks were first assembled before everything which we know in the “matter” verse was created.

What were those building blocks?

Aether (that which fills the lofty places –or- Heaven).
Earth
Light (fire)
Water
Air

From these building blocks God created everything else.

One interesting point to bring up about words changing over time would be the following: A word like temperantia eventually drifts and slowly became temper. What happened to Shamayim? It drifted as words do and became Shamayin. Then it drifted a little more and became Shaman.

3 states and 5 elements of the universe

2007-11-27T09:03:00.000-08:00

There are many, many laws that rely on a complete understanding of how the 3rd dimension is actually designed.

Einstein informed of us what mages, seers and prophets had been saying for centuries. Every thing is energy. Einstein just put it into mathematical terms for the scientific world to understand. E=MC^2.

One of the smallest building blocks left in the 3rd dimension before becoming energy is an atom. The atom is composed of: Neutron, Proton and Electron. The Neutron and the Proton are at the heart of the atom, one with a neutral polarity and one with a positive polarity. The Electron orbits the neutron and proton with a negative polarity. The number of electrons in orbit determine the type of atom it is. We then go on to account for how many electrons can fit into each orbit and thus when two atoms combine, the electrons from one will fill in gaps on the other thus linking them together in a energetic Lego assembly. Thus, we get matter.

Again, presenting the three states we have positive, neutral and negative. Without one of these three states, the 3rd dimensional universe would fall apart. Positive connects to Negative to create an assembly that becomes....matter.

Without negative, matter won't exist.
Without positive, matter won't exist.
Without neutral, matter won't exist.

These are then three central states that exist in not only the 3rd dimension, but the 4th dimension as well.

Understand this, then we can move later to a topic that makes some people nervous because it challenges religion and mythology.

Now that you are aware of the three states of the universe, we need to discuss the five elements. Using the term elements, I am not referring to the periodic table. I am referring to the five elements of life, they would be Aether, Earth, Air, Water and Fire. I am aware that you know about perhaps 4 of the 5. The first is often mistranslated into Heaven. So when it is mentioned "In Heaven Above and Earth Below" it is giving reference to two states of matter.

They also are in a set of three.
Heaven is a creation Element
Earth, Air, Water are life elements
Fire is a destruction Element

Placing this within mythology:

Heaven - World - Hell = Ethereal - Earth, Air, Water - Fire

Genesis actually discusses how God created these 5 elements.

(Genesis 1:1) In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Aether and Earth)
(Genesis 1:3) And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. (Fire)
(Genesis 1:6 - 8) And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day. (Water and Air)

It is amazing to me, how the life elements can also destroy as well as create. Water can tear down mountains, earth can envelope and devour and air can slowly destroy by moving water and earth around. Fire can only devour and Aether can only create.

Recap:

3 states to matter
Positive - Neutral - Negative
Good - Neutral - Evil
Yin - Neutral - Yan
Shin - Neutral - Sin

5 elements to the universe
Aether = Heaven
Earth, Air, Water = Life
Fire = Destruction

Law of Permissions

2007-11-19T06:03:00.000-08:00

Once The Secret came out, every one was discussing the law of attraction. To a few of us, we just shook our head because one law that is even more powerful than the law of attraction was missing, it is the key to the law of attraction: That law is the law of permissions.

Your authorities and rights here on earth: (Genesis 1:28) God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

Example of needing permission: (Job 1:6 - 12) One day the angels came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them. 7 The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Satan answered the LORD, "From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it." Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." "Does Job fear God for nothing?" Satan replied. "Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face." The LORD said to Satan, "Very well, then, everything he has is in your hands, but on the man himself do not lay a finger." Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

Another example of needing permission: (Luke 22:31) Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat.

There is a law within nature known as the law of permissions. This is one of the "high laws".

The simplistic way of putting the law of permission is: You can do nothing without a permission.

In the above examples there are two given where the so called "satan" (which is hebrew for opposer) asks permission of the creator to do something. For being a liar and a thief, why does this enemy of man need to ask permission? Because it is a law and even though he might "move around like a lion seeking who to devoure", he still can't break "law".

Kim mentioned in one of her comments about how the concepts behind the secret is an excellent way to remove fears. I am hear to tell you now that permissions is the way to eliminate fears.

"In heaven above and earth below, I give permission for no one to ever harm my family."
"In heaven above and earth below, I give permission for my house to sell."
"In heaven above and earth below, I give permission for people to like me."
"In heaven above and earth below, I give permission for my money to accumulate."
"In heaven above and earth below, I give permission for those I owed (past tense) to have a zero balance for me."

Rule number one of permissions: One must exist in order for that event to trigger.

There are three states to the law of permissions.
1) Positive permission (allowing something to happen)
2) Negative permission (denying something to happen)
3) Neutral permission (neither allowing nor denying something to happen) If you have neither allowed nor denied, then it is up to anyone to do whatever they please.

A life of security:
Most people live most of their lives with their permissions in neutral. I taught the law of permission to a friend of mine. He would constantly place permissions on his car, that no harm would come to it. This by the way is an awesome way to escape accidents. He would meditate daily as he would get into his car "In heaven above and earth below, no one has permission to harm my car."
A few months into this there was a series of vehicle break-ins in the parking lot at his work. When he went out to look what he found just reinforced the law of permissions. The car to the left and right of him had windows broken and items stolen, while his car just sat there untouched.

The owners of the cars around him had neutral permissions on their cars. This was because they did not have an understanding of the law of permissions and because of this left themselves open to attack.

A life of peace:
One associate meditates on peaceful surroundings constantly to be around him. That is exactly what he has received. You can put your life at ease with the law of permissions by simply shutting off negative events from taking place. The law of permissions supercedes the law of attraction. By doing this, even if you have a minor degree of fear in you, since you are laying out a permission to stop an event from taking place you are putting a "hedge" around yourself. That is the same hedge that "satan" was giving reference to when speaking of Job. How would "God" remove the hedge? By allowing Job to become complacient in placing his permissions out there. Allowing for the fear to grow and give energy to the fear that he had.
To which he later confessed: (Job 3:25) What I feared has come upon me; what I dreaded has happened to me.

How many people can say those words. "What I feared has come upon me." That is because when you focus on something, you give it energy (where your focus is - there your energy is) and you through thought give it permission to manifest or create itself.

If you use the law of permissions to allow or disallow something from occurring every time that fear arises, than you are in control and you are shutting off any and all posibilities from occuring.

So, let's allow positives. Have you blocked yourself from becoming or doing something? "Oh I can't do that..." you just denied yourself permission. "In heaven above and earth below, I give myself permission to...." It might take a little bit of time for things to flow once the negative permissions are removed, once they do, that won't stop.

Stating a negative permission positively:
The universe works better with positives than negatives. Many times generating a negative permission is a bit of a task. The easiest way to put on in position is to state as you would a positive permission "In heaven above and earth below, I give (which is positive) no one (removing the who) and no spirit (removing the who) permission to harm my family."
So, you have positively given a negative permission in a positive manner.

If the permissions have been weakened to the point that they will easily shift, you can then state "In heaven above and earth below, I revoke/remove (negative) any permission allowing for my family to be harmed by anyone."

I can go into great length about this simple process.

My challenge to you is: Daily, start placing permissions on things. Be it to secure your life and that you feel safer at home. To drive away from you and your family influences that are negative in nature. To remove bad permissions ("I will never be loved.") and start attracting to you that which you desire.

In The Secret, a couple of speakers discuss a small part of the law of permission with out knowledge of what they are referring to. It is a shame, because the law of permission is what can stop the law of attraction from working. One is the key unlocking the gate of the other. You have to have the permission to generate the attraction.

In Heaven Above and Earth Below: The importance of starting all things with this statement is that you are calling for it to occur in two dimensions. The 4th (Heaven/Aetheral) and the 3rd (Earth). The reason many prophets of old would say "So as it is above, so it is below" is because we create first in the 4th then manifest it into the 3rd. Faith is the evidence of things unseen. We know that we have created it in the 4th and it will soon be here in the 3rd. So, when you lay out your permissions, lay them out in both dimensions, this way nothing on either side of the coin can break your permission.

(Side note: My favorite permission I ever placed was "I give permission for people to buy me a cup of coffee/tea." Go a head and laugh, I rarely have to buy coffee/tea when I am out with friends.)
