<address>For those who may be interested, an interpretation of the current state of affairs on the planet, and what we could do to empower ourselves. Reposted with permission.</address>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Your planet is entering a critical <em>transition state</em>, characterized by a multiplicity of Chaotic Nodes.</p>
<p>In our previous communications we have discussed the changes taking  place on your Earth in the context of a single Chaotic Node. But from  our viewpoint, multiple Chaotic Nodes are now emerging. These complex  interacting nodes involve such things as radical weather anomalies,  increases in earthquake and volcanic activity, critical challenges to  the planet’s eco-systems, challenges to agriculture and food sources, as  well as political and economic volatility.</p>
<p>In addition to these planetary Chaotic Nodes, the sun of your solar  system is entering a greater level of volatility and unpredictability as  well. It is entering into multiple Chaotic Nodes itself, driven by its  own internal cycles, but also greatly impacted, as we have said in  previous messages, by the galactic center.</p>
<p>The physical challenges you will face in the near future are many,  but our message at this time does not concern the physical dimension of  these difficulties. These changes, and their resulting challenges, will  be apparent to anyone who looks beneath the surface of current events.</p>
<p>Our focus in this communication is on the emotional and spiritual crisis you are facing.</p>
<p>When a system enters multiple Chaotic Nodes there is increased stress  on those elements or beings that reside in the vibratory level of  existence where the Chaotic Nodes are taking place.</p>
<p>Let us speak to this for a moment in terms other than human  existence. From our experience, other dimensions of consciousness and  existence are also experiencing their own version of multiple Chaotic  Nodes. Thus, the energetic challenges you are facing are not limited  just to Earth, but extend to all dimensions of consciousness and all  beings, including non-corporeal (energy beings without bodies), who are  related to Earth and this galaxy.</p>
<p>But let us come down to Earth, to the nexus point of your existence in time and space.</p>
<p>As we said earlier, beings living in a realm of existence undergoing  multiple Chaotic Nodes will be inevitably stressed by increases in  chaotic events.</p>
<p>As chaotic elements within planetary weather patterns increase, as  challenges to agriculture multiply, and as economic problems grow, there  will be an increase in global human anxiety.</p>
<p>This type of anxiety tends to center around physical survival, and  while anxiety about survival can drive human beings into a type of  madness and irrationality, there is something more insidious and hidden  in the current transition state you are now entering.</p>
<p>This hidden danger has to do with thought forms perpetuated by some  of your major religions and spiritual traditions. These thought forms  and belief systems maintain the notion that there is a separation  between the physical and the interdimensional (spiritual) aspects of  your existence. The physical world is viewed as tainted; nature is seen  as something to be subdued and dominated (as opposed to co-creating with  the natural world), and in essence, the world is viewed as something to  be escaped from.</p>
<p>We do not share this belief. Our experience is that consciousness is  one continuum from the highest vibrations of light into the lowest  vibrations of matter and that the very atoms and subatomic particles  that comprise your world are, by their very nature, sacred—if by sacred  you mean related to the whole.</p>
<p>As the stresses generated by multiple Chaotic Nodes increase, there will be a tendency for many humans to enter <em>delusional and dissociative</em> states of consciousness.</p>
<p>Those who adhere to the thought form that there is an eternal schism  between the realms of matter and those of spirit will be most prone to  this aberration in consciousness. And as stresses increase, due to the  complex interaction of multiple Chaotic Nodes, there will be a marked  tendency for some of these individuals to be separated further and  further from the realities of the physical dimension. This type of  communal dissociation will be further driven by religious and spiritual  thought forms regarding “the End Times,” “the Day of Judgment,” and the  “Purification of Earth.” This delusional state of mind will become a  type of collective <em>mental/emotional virus</em> as whole groups of  individuals succumb to stress and overwhelm as they struggle to deal  with the global effects of multiple Chaotic Nodes.</p>
<p><strong>Lines in the sand</strong></p>
<p>From our perspective, a line is being drawn in the sands of human  consciousness. And this line is nothing less than the demarcation  between those who uphold the schism between matter and spirit as  perpetuated by the world’s major religions and those who don’t.</p>
<p>What side of this line you stand on will determine to a great extent  what you are open to, in terms of planetary and personal transformation.</p>
<p>All Initiates must determine for themselves, what is true and not  true, especially when it comes to this religiously perpetuated schism  between matter and spirit. And by Initiates, we simply mean those who  strive to live upward in consciousness, regardless of the method or  spiritual traditions they follow.</p>
<p><strong>The Path of the Heart</strong></p>
<p>From our perspective, the threshold for an Initiate from the lower  vibrational worlds into the upper worlds is, first and foremost, through  the heart. This transit of consciousness is essentially an inner  journey from the lower chakras to the higher chakras. It is only when an  Initiate both transcends and transforms his or her personal fixation on  security, sex and power that the upward spiral opens. And the entrance  into this upward spiral of consciousness occurs when the heart chakra  becomes energetically open and permeable.</p>
<p>The paradox and the difficulty is that you live in a dualistic  universe, and virtually any action you take is met by a counter-force.  This paradox and difficulty is like a metaphorical grain of sand in an  oyster; it is irritating. But through the process of self-evolution, the  irritation (i.e. duality) becomes a pearl, and paradoxically, something  of value emerges from that which was problematic. But each Initiate  must create this pearl of self-transformation for him or herself. No  religion, no master, no teacher or guru can do it for you.</p>
<p>It may sound too simplistic but, in our experience, the greatest  evolutionary catalyst, and the greatest vibratory field of safety to  bridge transition states (such as the one you are collectively  entering), is through the heart, your heart.</p>
<p>Let us be more specific here. As the number of Chaotic Nodes  increases, the challenges to mental and emotional stability will  multiply. And as a result, increasing numbers of individuals will enter  irrational states of consciousness. There will be a tendency for these  individuals to act out in self-destructive ways. And because you are  connected to all life on this planet, you will be affected to some  extent by the emotional turmoil of others.</p>
<p>Thus it would be of great benefit to you as an Initiate, to cultivate  a coherent emotional state, something you return to again and again,  reinforcing what we call a positive attractor.</p>
<p>Then it will be as if you have an energetic bubble of coherency  around you. You will be able to see clearly and respond to the dualistic  world you live in, yet your vibratory essence will remain protected  from the increasing levels of chaos and irrationality of others. How you  do this is your choice. There are many ways to accomplish this. We will  simply offer two.</p>
<p>The first is the most basic and fundamental but is the foundation for  the more advanced. We are well aware that many persons reading these  messages are new to this type of information, while others are very  advanced, which is why we are offering two techniques.</p>
<p><strong>The Basic Technique</strong></p>
<p>This first method is for those unfamiliar with the vastness of their own inner consciousness. It is simple but highly effective.</p>
<p>We recommend you regularly cultivate this coherent state in the garden of your mind.</p>
<p>To accomplish this, you simply reside in the feelings of appreciation  or gratitude, without any reason to do so. In other words, you are not  looking to something in your environment or your life to feel  appreciation or gratitude for. You simply enter into this vibratory  state for no other reason other than choosing to do so.</p>
<p>This vibratory state creates a coherency in your body and mind, and it is a type of mental/emotional <em>upliftment</em> that acts as a counter-balance to the downward spiral many humans will be experiencing.</p>
<p>We recommend that you enter this emotional state several times a day.  Just a minute or two is all that is needed, but by entering into this  vibratory state throughout the day, you train your brain/mind/body to  enter into a coherent state at will. And this will be a very helpful and  important <em>mind-skill</em> as you enter further into this planetary transition state (i.e. the emergence of multiple Chaotic Nodes).</p>
<p>One reason we say that this <em>mind-skill</em> will be helpful to you is due to the inherent effects of multiple Chaotic Nodes.</p>
<p>Many of you will find greater opportunities for frustration in your  daily life. This is because actions taken will increasingly not lead to  the result anticipated. Even those of you who are intellectually gifted  and masters of manifestation may find blocks and unanticipated  hindrances, due to no causation on your part, but rather due to the  actions or inactions of others, as well as unanticipated problems caused  by the increase of chaotic events in the world around you. Thus, when  you find yourself at your wit’s end, so to speak, if you have cultivated  the positive attractor of appreciation or gratitude you can use it to  intervene into your own emotional turmoil, for if you succumb to your  own emotional stress the contagion of mass hysteria is more likely to  reach you.</p>
<p>Think of this simple technique as a lifesaver. It’s something  passive, you just rest in it, and it creates a vibratory field that by  its very nature protects your emotional and spiritual essence.</p>
<p><strong>The Advanced Technique</strong></p>
<p>The second technique we wish to share is for those of you who are more experienced with your inner worlds.</p>
<p>We discussed the first part of this method in a previous message called <em>Ecstasy and the Heart</em>.</p>
<p>The technique involves focusing on the physical heart, not the heart  chakra, and while focusing your attention on the physical heart you  enter into the state of appreciation or gratitude (just as with the  simple method we gave earlier).</p>
<p>The effect of holding your awareness in the physical heart while  experiencing appreciation or gratitude creates bliss or ecstasy if you  hold the two together long enough.</p>
<p>Once you enter bliss or ecstasy you become aware of the space between  the atoms of your body and your environment. This is a shift of mental  attention and is based on the quantum reality that physical matter is  over 99% space.</p>
<p>Obviously, you do not perceive this space between the atoms of your  body and your immediate environment through your physical senses due to  the limitations of your nervous system. But the <em>non-local</em> aspect of your consciousness that is unfettered by the limitations of your physical reality <em>can</em> experience this space.</p>
<p>The final stage of this technique involves a shifting of attention.  As you become aware of this space in your body and the space around you,  you perform a paradoxical feat of consciousness. You send the  appreciation and gratitude you are experiencing, both to the space  within your body and to the space around you, as well to the particles  of matter that comprise your body and the world around you.</p>
<p>This “holding” of both space and matter in the vibratory realm of  appreciation or gratitude will eventually reveal your nature as both an  embodied and un-embodied being—as a being living through a physical body  or form and simultaneously as a consciousness unbounded by form.  If  you persist with this method, it will eventually open a miraculous  doorway for you, a doorway that leads to profound insights regarding the  nature of ascension.</p>
<p>In regard to choosing which method to use, we suggest you begin where you are.</p>
<p>The first method, though simple, is highly effective at protecting  you from the contagion of human irrationality and will lift you upward  into the currents of the upward spiral, even as those around you spiral  downward.</p>
<p>When you feel you are ready, you can explore the advanced method.  This is not a marathon race to see who can get to the advanced method  the quickest.</p>
<p>The only thing that is required is that you reside in appreciation or  gratitude as often as possible without causation. This simple vibratory  realm will be a great ally to you as you pass through the current  planetary transition state.</p>
<p>Another ally to you in this transition is a meditation we gave in one of our previous communications. We call it <em>The Crystal Palace Within</em>,  and we encourage you to experiment with it. If it speaks to you, use it  often for it connects you to the wisdom of Gaia (Earth) and enlivens a  central conduit for the higher realms of your existence known to your  science as your pineal gland and known to us as the jewel in the head.</p>
<p>For those of you planning to join us for the World Meditation on  November 11th  of this year (11/11/11), we ask that you work with <em>The Crystal Palace Meditation</em> as often as is convenient, to prepare you for the next Dimensional Attunement, which will be used during the World Meditation.</p>
<p>This Dimensional Attunement will be a sound meditation created to  transmit light into the pituitary gland, the master regulator of your  endocrine system. We will be giving instructions on how to use this  sound meditation on your own and for use during the world meditation on  11/11/11.</p>
<p>We will post the <em>Pituitary Dimensional  Attunement</em> (sound meditation) in the <em>Sound Gifts</em> section of the website at the end of September or the beginning of October.</p>
<p><strong>Summary</strong></p>
<p>As we said at the beginning of this message, you are entering a  critical transition state. For those unfamiliar with our previous  message entitled <a href="http://tomkenyon.com/transition-states-of-consciousness" target="_blank"><em>Transition States of Consciousness</em></a>, we strongly suggest that you take a look at this communication.</p>
<p>Your Earth is entering a perilous period in its upward movement. Many  aspects of your reality will be changing right before your eyes, more  rapidly than you could ever have imagined.</p>
<p>Due to the acceleration of time, the transformation of your  civilization will increase exponentially. Your word “transformation”  literally means moving beyond form, thus the structures of your reality  (meaning the thought forms and beliefs as well as the external realities  of your life) will be undergoing rapid change.</p>
<p>A greater fluidity of consciousness is required. Protection of your  vibratory essence is vital. You are entering harrowing times and yet in  this complexity there are immense opportunities for your own personal  evolution.</p>
<p>We believe that there will be a greater polarization between people  as the Chaotic Nodes increase in number and intensity. And yet even in  the midst of that polarization, if your heart/mind is open you will have  moments of deep communion with others, even strangers, whenever you  look into the eyes of another human being who recognizes the sacredness  of this moment, the sacredness of life, and the sacredness of this  Earth.</p>
<p>Our thoughts and blessings are with you.</p>
<p><strong>The Hathors</strong><br />
August 12, 2011</p>
<hr />
<h2>Tom’s Thoughts and Observations</h2>
<p>According to the Hathors, we are now witnessing the rising of  multiple Chaotic Nodes, with a resulting increase in chaotic events and  situations all over the world.</p>
<p>The Hathors have singled out a few of these Nodes in their message,  such as extreme stresses on our ecosystems, bizarre weather patterns  which are, in turn, negatively affecting both agriculture and our food  sources, as well as earth changes (i.e. earthquakes and volcanoes), not  to mention drastic economic and political volatility.</p>
<p>But they don’t spend a lot of time on the details of these physical  calamities. They say quite rightly, I think, that the consequences of  these Chaotic Nodes can be ascertained by anyone who looks beneath the  surface of current events.</p>
<p>The primary focus of their message is two-fold: one, how each of us can create a <em>vibrational field of protection</em> as we collectively move into this transition state (and the  corresponding increase in global chaos). And secondly, they address what  they see as a hidden danger, which paradoxically isn’t physical, but  mental.</p>
<p>They slam some of the world’s major religions and spiritual  traditions for the toxic and insidious effects from some of their  central thought forms—first, that nature is something to be dominated  and subdued according to our will (<em>as opposed to co-creating with the natural world</em>—to  use the Hathors’ own words). And secondly, that there is an eternal  schism and battle between matter and spirit. The Hathors are so  convinced that these are toxic thought forms and beliefs they have  mentioned them in two of their recent messages.</p>
<p>I have been working with the Hathors for over twenty years now, and  they are normally more gracious when it comes to allowing others their  own perceptions. It is highly unusual for them to take such an adamant  stance.</p>
<p>After receiving this most recent message, I asked one of my Hathor  mentors about this unprecedented attack on two common thought forms in  many religious and spiritual traditions. His response was that humanity  is at a tipping point and that the two aforementioned thought forms are a  toxic poison that has polluted, and continues to pollute, our  collective approach to life itself (since according to some of these  traditions, life is either a punishment, an error and/or an illusion).</p>
<p>The Hathors consider these ideas to be delusional in nature, since  according to their perception, there is no separation between spirit  (i.e. interdimensional realities) and matter. Indeed, as they said, they  see consciousness as one continuum from the highest vibrations of light  to the lowest vibrations of matter. And for them, matter is inherently  sacred since it is an expression of this continuum. It’s just that  things move slower in the worlds of matter than they do in the realms of  light.</p>
<p>In true Hathorian style, they say that each and every Initiate (i.e.  anyone striving to live upward in consciousness) must make his or her  own decision regarding the <em>religiously perpetuated schism between spirit and matter</em>.   In other words, they are not telling us what to believe (nor should  they). But they have unquestionably made their position crystal clear.</p>
<p><strong>Collective Madness</strong></p>
<p>They also discuss how many of us will experience significant stress  reactions as the global effects of the Chaotic Nodes become more  intense. One result of human-related stress, according to them, will be  an increase in collective mental and emotional instability. And  furthermore, they think, “there will be a tendency for many humans to  enter <em>delusional and dissociative</em> states of consciousness.”</p>
<p>The psychosocial history of humanity shows pretty clearly, I think,  that when social, economic, and/or environmental stresses reach a  certain point, mental health problems crop up in the collective human  family like mushrooms in springtime.</p>
<p>The psychiatrist Carl Jung predicted World War II based on the  tormented dreams of his patients shortly after the end of World War I.  The intensity and similarities of his patients’ nightmares indicated, to  him, that the human collective was deeply disturbed and traumatized by  something that would materialize in the near future.</p>
<p>In fact, a relatively new field of socio-psychology has been looking  at the complex interactions of social and economic pressures, how they  generate stress reactions in people, and how this type of stress can  result in mental health problems. In this regard, I found a study  released by the National Institute of Mental Health to be a fascinating  piece of reading. For those interested in such matters, I would refer  you to a document entitled “Social Stressors and Social Resources and  their Health Consequences,” NIMH Office of Prevention and Special  Projects, Bethesda, MD, August 17-19 1995. You can also do an Internet  search and find the document by pasting this URL address into your  search engine:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mhsip.org/nimhdoc/socioeconmh_home2.htm" target="_blank">http://www.mhsip.org/nimhdoc/socioeconmh_home2.htm</a></p>
<p>But turning our attention back to the Hathors’ comments about  increased delusion and dissociative states of consciousness, they site  one example of this as the expectations of many that we are at the verge  of (or some would say already at) <em>Judgment Day</em>.</p>
<p><strong>The Doomsday Scenarios</strong></p>
<p>The idea that we are near the apocalyptic end of time is hardly new.</p>
<p>At the end of the first millennium, a type of End-times Madness  engulfed Europe. Convinced that the world was coming to an end and the  return of Jesus was imminent, untold numbers of people left their  villages, their livelihoods, and set off on pilgrimages to atone for  their perceived sins against God. When the first day of the new  millennium (1,000A.D.) dawned and the world had not ended, many firm  believers were no doubt dismayed. After all, the return of Jesus  guaranteed escape from the madness of their time.</p>
<p>More recently, a modern day prophet calculated the end day of  creation to be May 21st of this year (2011). He based this upon what he  called a meticulous analysis of the Bible. And his vision of the  Apocalyptic End Times went viral through a large group of fundamentalist  evangelical Christians. In an odd recapitulation of the last  millennium, many of these devoted believers left their jobs while others  donated their entire life savings to take out full page ads and to put  up billboards to save <em>the heathen unbelievers</em> from eternal damnation by bringing them into the flock during <em>the final days</em>.</p>
<p>When May 21st came and went, and the morning of May 22nd dawned,  unaware that it was supposed to not have been, many of these believers  were, no doubt, shaken. Others, however, have jumped ship and now say  that May 21st was a miscalculation, and that the correct date for the  end of the world is October 21st, 2011.</p>
<p>But this <em>End Times Madness</em> is hardly limited to Christian fundamentalists. The New Age has its own potent and heady brew called the <em>Mayan End Times</em>.  And according to these literalists, the world will end when the current  Mayan Long Count calendar comes to an end on December 21, 2012.</p>
<p>Personally, I think that the Mayan Calendar is more like a cosmic  odometer. When the Calendar ends, it simply rolls over and starts a new  cycle of time. The old count of time ends, but a new one begins. To say  that the world will end on December 21st of next year is, to me, like  saying that my car will disappear when the odometer rolls over 100,000  miles. I just don’t buy it.</p>
<p>I have asked the Hathors on various occasions what they felt about  the end of the Mayan Calendar and their position has been consistent.  The end of the Mayan Long Count does not mean the end of the world to  them, but it does mean the end of the world as we have known it. They  also believe that a powerful evolutionary energetic will be released on  December 21st 2012 from the galactic core, what is sometimes called the  Central Sun. But while this energetic will have a powerful transforming  effect on humanity, it does not, for them, signal the end of Homo  sapiens. In fact, some of their predictions regarding humanity center on  cosmic events taking place in 2023A.D. In other words, they do not see  an end to mankind anytime soon, but they do see a radical transformation  taking place in the global consciousness of humanity itself.</p>
<p><strong>The Implicit and Unspoken Consequence</strong></p>
<p>History will, of course, eventually reveal who is right and who is wrong in regards to all this <em>End of the World stuff</em>—that is assuming, of course, that some future history does, in fact, exist for humanity.</p>
<p>Perhaps the doomsayers are right, and the world will end in a final  judgment brought on by an angry God, or as some believers in ancient  alien intervention attest to, the world will end when the Anunnaki  return to review their genetically modified slave labor force (i.e.  mankind).</p>
<p>Maybe as some believe, the Great Benevolent Ones will return and save  us from ourselves. And the end of the Mayan Calendar will usher us into  a new Age of the Gods and all of the nightmarish things we see  happening around us will be like a bad dream when we wake up.</p>
<p>Or perhaps the Mayan literalists are right, and when the Mayan Calendar ends, so will time and so will our world.</p>
<p>But <em>Doomsday Thinking</em> presents, at least for me, some  intrinsic problems regardless of its origins. For one, it is—by its very  nature—self-limiting and essentially disempowering. And too much time  spent delving into the numerous Doomsday scenarios can lead one into a  very negative state of mind indeed.</p>
<p>The unspoken consequence of this type of thinking is that it  diminishes any actions we might take in our lives. And our power to act,  to change situations in our lives, is one of our most important  attributes.</p>
<p><strong>Vibrational Fields of Protection</strong></p>
<p>In this message, the Hathors gave two methods for dealing with the chaotic nature of the <em>transition state</em> that our planet is now entering. Both of these methods deal with the  heart and/or emotional states associated with the heart. This is not  surprising since the Hathors have told me from day one that the most  effective and safe means to accelerate one’s spiritual evolution is  through the heart and through the emotions of appreciation and/or  gratitude.</p>
<p>The first method they shared is for those who are new to this type of  information.  If you are an advanced practitioner, you might wish to  skip over this next section since it is fairly basic. My discussion of  the advanced technique follows the heading <em>The Advanced Technique/Philosophical Considerations</em>.</p>
<p><strong>The Basic Technique</strong></p>
<p>The idea here is to enter into the emotion, or feeling-state, of  appreciation or gratitude. And you enter this state of body and mind for  no reason other than choosing to experience it.</p>
<p>In other words, you don’t look to something in your life that you  feel appreciation or gratitude for. You enter into this feeling-state  through an act of will.</p>
<p>According to the Hathors, when you reside in this state of body and mind, you create what they call a <em>positive attractor</em>.  It positively affects your mood, your thinking, and your behavior and, they would say, your vibrational energy-field as well.</p>
<p>The Hathors are suggesting that we enter into this feeling-state of  appreciation or gratitude several times a day—so that we become masters  of it—meaning that we can enter it anytime of day or night at will.</p>
<p>They say that this ability will serve us greatly as we, and the other  nearly 7 billion people on this planet, enter more deeply into the  consequences of so many Chaotic Nodes. In other words—the feeling state  of appreciation or gratitude is an antidote, a mental/emotional  protection, against chaotically induced stress responses.</p>
<p>The more often you practice this flipping of your mental/emotional  state into the feelings of appreciation or gratitude, the better you  will become at it. This type of emotional brain skill is just that—a  skill. And like all skills, mastery is gained through repetition. We  have to build the neuro-circuits in our brains before we can count on  the response to be there when we most need it.</p>
<p>If you are the type of person with a well-developed neural network  that gives you access to your emotions, you can probably just recall the  feeling of appreciation or gratitude. And as you do so, you will notice  the quality of your emotions changing into the coherent and positive  feeling of appreciation or gratitude. Now all you need to do is choose  to enter into this feeling-state several times a day. Do it as a type of  mental experiment. Do it in situations when it is easy and do it in  situations when it is difficult to do, like when you are annoyed,  impatient or angry. See what happens when you intervene into your own  mental/emotional experience with this coherent emotional state (i.e.  appreciation or gratitude).  And remember, the more you practice this,  the more adept and masterful you will become.</p>
<p>If you are the type of person who does not have direct access to your emotions, you might try the <em>memory recall method</em>.  The idea, here, is that when you remember an event or a situation in  which you experienced an emotion, the emotion tends to come back into  your awareness when you access the memory.</p>
<p>Thus, the first step is to recall something in your past that you  felt appreciation or gratitude for. It does not matter what the reason  was. It could have been something big, or it could have been something  small. It really doesn’t matter so long as you felt some degree of  appreciation or gratitude.</p>
<p>The next step is to recall the actual memory. Remember the situation,  the details of where you were. Bring all your senses into this  experience. Imagine yourself actually physically being there. See it;  hear it; feel the physical sensations. As you fine tune your memory of  what it was that made you feel appreciation, you will find yourself  feeling that emotion again.</p>
<p>The final step is to let the memory drop away so that what you have  left is the feeling-state itself. As you rest in this coherent emotion  of appreciation or gratitude, familiarize yourself with its quality.  Eventually you will be able to recall the feeling-state of appreciation  or gratitude without having to go to the memory. At this point, you are  ready to enter into the coherent feeling-state of appreciation or  gratitude several times a day. And remember… practice makes perfect.</p>
<p>Some people are unable to access the feeling-state of appreciation or  gratitude either directly or through the memory recall method. This is  usually due to many different factors such as neural networking in the  brain and especially past history. In other words, when these persons go  searching for something in the past they felt appreciation or gratitude  for, they come up empty. They simply cannot recall any positive  experience that would generate these types of feelings.</p>
<p>If you happen to be this type of individual, you can create a new  neural network in your brain that will allow you to experience the  coherent feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude even though you have  never actually experienced it in your life.</p>
<p>To do this, you will be engaging something called <em>creative fantasy</em>.  And as odd as it may sound, in certain situations the body/mind cannot  tell the difference between a real and an imagined event.</p>
<p>When you create a healing fantasy, you release powerful healing  responses in your body/mind even though the source for these healing  responses is your imagination!</p>
<p>The first step in this particular method is to think of something  that would make you feel appreciation or gratitude. It doesn’t matter  what this imaginary something is. It could be something really big, or  something simple. It just needs to be something that would make you feel  appreciation or gratitude.</p>
<p>Next, you start to build the fantasy by imagining yourself in the  situation and receiving whatever it is that would make you feel  appreciation or gratitude. Imagine yourself fully and completely in this  situation, as if it were actually happening. See it; feel the physical  sensations; hear the sounds.</p>
<p>As you fill in your senses, the fantasy will seem more and more real  to you. When you feel the emotion of appreciation or gratitude rising up  within you, let the fantasy drop away so that you are left with the  feeling.</p>
<p>Sometimes people have a secondary response to the fantasy in addition  to the feeling of appreciation or gratitude. These secondary responses  can include such feelings as sadness, regret, or anger that they never  had anything in their life that made them feel either appreciation or  gratitude.</p>
<p>If this happens for you, allow yourself to experience the secondary  responses. The idea here is not to cover anything up, especially  authentic emotional responses to situations in your life. The idea is to  introduce a new feeling-state that you can work with.</p>
<p>If you let yourself feel the secondary responses long enough, they  will eventually fade in their intensity. At this point, return to the  fantasy and let the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude rise up  again. Then rest in this coherent feeling-state as long as you are  comfortable with it so that you begin to recognize its quality.</p>
<p>Some people with a lot of secondary responses may have to go through  this creative fantasy method several times. Stick with it, as both it  and you are worth the effort.</p>
<p>When you sense the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude arising  from your fantasy work without secondary responses, you are ready to  start experimenting with the coherent feeling-state as described above.  Experiment with it. Try it in all types of situations. The more you  practice entering into appreciation or gratitude at will, the more  masterful you will become.</p>
<p>There is another, often unexpected benefit from doing this practice.  As you enter into this coherent feeling-state of appreciation or  gratitude over and over again at will, you create a <em>positive attractor</em>.  And you will eventually attract to you situations, people and  opportunities that will make you feel appreciation or gratitude in your  real life.</p>
<p><strong>The Advanced Technique/Philosophical Considerations</strong></p>
<p>I think it is quite important to discuss the philosophical  implications of the Advanced Technique before going into some of the  finer details. The reason for this reticence on my part is that the  Advanced Technique alters brain processing and inner perception in  profound ways. And I think you should know what you are getting into so  that you can decide if it is, in fact, something you want to experience  or not.</p>
<p>If you read the Hathors’ instructions for this method, you will  notice that there is a moment in the technique when you focus on your  physical heart while feeling the emotion of appreciation or gratitude.</p>
<p>If you stay with this long enough, there will be a spontaneous  arising of bliss or ecstasy. And then, according to the Hathors, you  remain in bliss while contemplating (i.e. being aware of) the emptiness  or space that comprises your body.</p>
<p>This dual awareness of bliss and emptiness produces a profound shift  in inner perception. It is a type of liberation, since you directly  experience the infinite and non-local nature of your own consciousness.  While in this state of inner awareness, the constraints of your body and  the limitations of the world are transcended.</p>
<p>You have entered an infinite state of mind that knows no boundaries.</p>
<p>If you get this far into the technique, I suggest you spend a good  deal of time in this expanded state of mind, and really enjoy it before  going to the next step. I say this because it is for me, at least, a  deeply nourishing and restful state of body and mind.</p>
<p>In the next step you send appreciation to both the space that  comprises your body as well as the actual matter that comprises your  body—remembering that all matter, including your body, is over 99%  space.</p>
<p>Each of us will have our own experience of this step, I imagine. For  me, it is a visceral experience. I am brought back from my unbounded  state of mind to a state in which I am both bound by the limitations of  my body and transcendent to them all at the same time. I am, in other  words, both non-local and localized simultaneously. This is a truly odd  state.</p>
<p>When I remain in this dual state of non-localized and localized  consciousness long enough, I start to experience surges of energy  entering my body from what seems to be the internal space of my body.  And my body often starts to spontaneously enter into a type of circular  rocking motion (if I am sitting upright or cross legged), which is known  to yogis and yoginis as <em>kriyas</em>. Kriyas are a sign that subtle energies are moving through the body.</p>
<p>This phase of the technique, at least for me, is not restful, it is potent and energizing.</p>
<p>According to the Hathors, this phase of the Advanced Technique  generates a flow of subtle energies from the body’s interdimensional  space into the KA (the energy body) and from here into the cells of the  physical body via the mitochondria and then into the DNA. I have no way  to determine, for the record, if this is what is actually occurring. I  am only reporting what the Hathors told me about it when I asked them  some pointed questions about my personal experiences with the method.</p>
<p>They say that the energizing of the KA/mitochondria/DNA will  spontaneously reveal insights into the process and nature of ascension  if the practitioner works with this technique long enough.</p>
<p>And this is the crux of the philosophical dilemma. The Advanced  Technique alters inner perception in such a way that you will experience  the non-localized (i.e. transcendent) aspects of your being as well as  the localized aspects.</p>
<p>Furthermore, it creates a bridge between the aspect of you that is  embodied and the aspect of you that is transcendent to your embodiment.  One of the effects of this <em>bridge in consciousness</em> is that you bring into your body some very potent energetics from the aspect of you that is transcendent to your body.</p>
<p>I would not suggest this technique to anyone who believes in a schism  between matter and spirit or who thinks there is a battle between the  spirit and the flesh. This technique is, at its most fundamental level,  about spiritualizing matter. And if that is not something you are  interested in, I would not advise engaging this technique at all.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The truth will set you free as the saying goes, but increasingly it seems to me that many truth seekers are actually being enslaved by their discoveries and views. Ironically as many of us try to free ourselves from the tyranny of  the &#8220;New world order&#8221; or whatever you would like to call it, we become more and more bonded to our individual or group versions of truth. There is much talk in &#8220;truther&#8221; circles about being &#8220;awake&#8221; and the need to wake up the &#8220;sheeple&#8221;. Well it surely is true that most people understand little of the way the power structures of the world work or of spirituality, I feel that proclaiming ourselves to be the awakened teachers and our pupils dumb sheep is hardly the way to bring about any positive change. Although I have to admit to being sometimes guilty of this myself, I am becoming increasingly aware of the fact that this attitude is both arrogant and just serves to prolong the duality that we are supposed to be moving away from. It seems to me that the &#8220;truther&#8221; movement could use some humility. As far as I am concerned someone who admits that they don&#8217;t know is a lot closer to the truth than someone who claims to have discovered it, at least as far as the big picture goes. I would go so far as to suggest that there is no one on the planet that has the big picture truth.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t care what your truth is, it might be wrong or at least incomplete. Quantum physics already has many scientists loosing sleep over their cherished beliefs about time and space for example. Or look at all the religious wars and atrocities carried out in the past and now in the name of some God or &#8220;truth&#8221;. Spending 8 hours a day on the internet visiting all the conspiracy, spiritual, truther, patriot and all the alternative sites in existence will not lead you to the truth. At least that&#8217;s my experience. It might give you much useful information and point you in the right direction, then again it might lead to delusion. Often it leads to depression and anger&#8230;like we need more of that in the world right now. One of my favourite internet sites Conscious Media Network, has as it&#8217;s motto &#8220;question everything&#8221;&#8230;.that&#8217;s not question everything except your own cherished beliefs! The only tool of discernment I know of is intuition ( which has nothing to do with thinking)</p>
<p>I am starting to learn to treat my &#8220;truths&#8221; as a working hypothesis. As long as they are useful they are &#8220;true&#8221;&#8230;believing that the earth was flat was useful for our ancestors in many ways..until it wasn&#8217;t. Personally I doubt that it&#8217;s a three dimensional sphere, but that &#8220;truth&#8221; has been useful for many years. Is truth not relative? Is it even possible to know the larger truth from the perspective of a human form?</p>
<p>Many of us interested in truth and wanting to play our part in moving through 2012 and eventually into the age of Aquarius ( if that&#8217;s true:-) spend a lot of our time re-posting every doom and gloom story we come across all over the internet. While I certainly don&#8217;t advocate sticking our heads in the sand, I do feel that there is a lack of balance here. When we are so concentrated on all that is wrong in the world we run the risk of missing the rest. Like for example the powerful new energies that are engulfing our planet now (at lest that&#8217;s my working hypothesis). When was the last time you meditated in the company of large old trees? Or watched an animal being born or truly engaged in any of the many wonders of life right there under our noses? Perhaps your purpose in life is to do nothing, perhaps it is to be a  president or to be autistic, who has the arrogance to say that one is  better than the other?</p>
<p>Without the balance between these things we run the risk of becoming disgruntled, grumpy old (or young) men and women. Anyway fuck the internet I&#8217;m off to the beach.</p>

<h1>Transition States of Consciousness</h1>
<h2>A Hathor Planetary Message Through Tom Kenyon</h2>
<p><strong>Definitions</strong></p>
<p><em>Chaotic Nodes</em> are clusters of chaotic events.  According to  the Hathors, Earth has entered a Chaotic Node and, as a result, we can  expect ever-increasing levels of chaos—including but not limited to  earthquakes, volcanic activity, aberrant weather patterns, ecological  distress, as well as economic, social and political turmoil.</p>
<p><em>Transition States of Consciousness</em> are what the Hathors call  the in-between places when a major loss has occurred and we find  ourselves temporarily poised between an old reality that has passed away  and a new reality that has not yet fully formed.</p>
<p><em>Perceptual markers</em> are a term the Hathors use to describe how we make sense of our world and navigate through our lives using our five senses.</p>
<p><strong>The Message</strong></p>
<p>By their very nature Chaotic Nodes tend to generate <em>transition states of consciousness</em>. Transition states of consciousness emerge when <em>perceptual markers</em> disappear. And when this occurs you enter a <em>null zone</em> in which your old reality no longer exists, or has changed radically, while your new reality has not yet come into existence.</p>
<p>Due to the fact that you have entered an even more intense phase of  the Chaotic Node, we wish to share with you our views regarding  transition states, in the hopes that you will be able to utilize this  knowledge for your own benefit.</p>
<p>For our purposes we can divide transition states into three primary  categories: 1) personal transition states, 2) collective transition  states and 3) physical death.</p>
<p><strong>Personal Transition States</strong></p>
<p>Let us turn our attention to personal transition states first, for  your personal perception is the pivotal point around which your  perceived reality operates.</p>
<p>Your perception of reality is fundamentally a personal creation. It  is influenced by the collective perception of your culture, time, place  and circumstance, but fundamentally your perception of what is real and  not real is a creation—your creation.</p>
<p>Your perception of reality depends upon <em>habits of perception</em>,  if you are like most persons. You are used to experiencing certain  realities in your life and these tell you where you are, so to speak.  You wake up in the morning and you look to the clock and the collective  perception of time is immediately before you. Your choice to engage this  illusion, or not, is a personal one. Indeed, one of the signs of  spiritual mastery is the ability to navigate cultural illusions  successfully while clearly understanding their nature.</p>
<p>When a situation in your personal life shifts dramatically there is a  tendency for the perceptual markers to disappear or re-organize  themselves.</p>
<p>Let us present one possible scenario. If you have worked at the same  job for many years you have built your life around the demands of this  position. You eat lunch at a certain time. You return home at a certain  time. You interact with others in specific ways, tailored to fit the  demands of your job.</p>
<p>If that job were suddenly removed, unexpectedly, those perceptual  markers would disappear. There would be no need to get up at a certain  time, eat at a certain time, return home at a certain time, and the  people you interacted with for the bulk of your waking hours would no  longer be available to you.</p>
<p>This situation is inherently disorienting for most people. Again, the perceptual markers have disappeared.</p>
<p>The same phenomenon occurs when any radical shift in your personal  life takes place. If a relationship that is important to you suddenly  ends the perceptual markers of that relationship disappear, and you  enter the transition state of consciousness.</p>
<p>If you have a health crisis and your physical life is affected in  radical ways the perceptual markers disappear, and this can be  disorienting. You have entered a transition state of consciousness.</p>
<p>As the Chaotic Node increases in its intensity more and more persons  will experience the shock waves of their old reality crumbling before  them. What was certain in their lives is now uncertain. What was solid  ground is seen to be no longer solid. We mean this both figuratively and  literally.</p>
<p>There is another wave of transition states that is emerging from this  Chaotic Node. It is already affecting many persons, but its affects  will spread out in consciousness much like a tsunami.</p>
<p>This particular transition state has to do with the collapse of the  collective lies of your culture. Increasingly more and more of you will  see behind the shadow play; you will sense the puppet masters, and  although their identities may elude you, you will see with increasing  reality that aspects of your culture are a manipulation, a limitation,  and in many cases, downright lies.</p>
<p>The lie that we are speaking to here is not the lie of economics, the  lie of wars, or the lie of confining religions, but the lie of your  identity—a lie that ensures your imprisonment. This lie is the belief  and cultural assertion that you are nothing more than a physical human  being and that there are, in fact, no other realms of being beyond your  earthy experience.</p>
<p>The recognition of this lie is a harbinger of personal freedom, but  in its beginning stages it can be quite disorienting. This is because  multidimensional experiences are so different from your earthly  day-to-day experiences.  If you find yourself marooned between your  earthly and multidimensional life, you have entered a transition state  of consciousness.</p>
<p>Our purpose in sharing this information is to suggest a practical course of action during transition states of consciousness.</p>
<p>When you personally enter a powerful transition state you might, like  many human beings, remain stuck in overwhelm. Many individuals find the  shock of realizing that their perceptual markers have disappeared,  along with the reality that they assumed to be real, deeply disturbing.</p>
<p>Due to the fact that time is accelerating—and by this we mean more  events taking place in less time—remaining in a state of shock or  overwhelm is a psychological indulgence which you cannot afford. The  essential point we wish to convey here is that regardless of the nature  of the transition state, whether it is personal in nature having to do  with changes in your personal life, or due to recognizing your cultural  manipulation—you are the creator of your reality.</p>
<p>You may have stories to explain why suddenly your life is bereft, but  these are just stories. You may blame other persons, situations, or  institutions for your problem, but this is misplaced responsibility.  Your stories may be true and there may be other persons, situations or  institutions to blame, but when you have entered a transition state of  consciousness, you are at the central vortex of a powerful creative  process. There is no reason or need to cry over “spilt milk” as one of  your folk sayings goes. What is lost is lost. What is gone is gone.</p>
<p>Now the central question becomes, “What will you do?”</p>
<p>Will you remain stunned, in shock, in overwhelm, anger and sadness?  Or will you step into your identity as a creator of your life?</p>
<p>To those of you who choose to remain in lower states of consciousness, we have no comment.</p>
<p>Our comments are for those of you courageous enough and bold enough  to step into your identity as creators. If you are one of these, here is  what we suggest.</p>
<p>When everything disappears, meaning the perceptual markers of your former reality, understand that you have entered into a <em>void point</em>.</p>
<p>A void point is a critical transition between an old reality and a  new one. That which was, has ended. Instead of regretting the loss, you  accept the void. This is, for many persons, a challenging undertaking,  because in the void point there is nothing that can be done. You must  simply be a witness to it, and to yourself, for in this <em>no-man’s land</em> there are no perceptual markers.</p>
<p>Be careful what new markers you put into place, for these ideas and  beliefs will be the stars in the new sky of your mind, and you shall  navigate your way into these new times by the stars (thoughts and  beliefs) that you have placed in the heavens of your own consciousness.  So be wise when you go about creating new stars, our fellow navigators  of the Mystery.</p>
<p><strong>Collective Transition States of Consciousness</strong></p>
<p>The human collective, from our perspective, is currently like an  immense cosmic serpent shedding its old skin, writhing and twisting,  scraping off old encumbrances. Some of these take the form of economic  turmoil. Some of them are political in nature. Some of them are the  collapse and transformation of cultural institutions. And some of these  writhings and twistings are related to earthquake and volcanic activity,  as well as aberrant weather patterns.</p>
<p>As natural and manmade disasters increase, more and more of you will  find yourselves entering transition states of consciousness. Obviously  those who experience an earthquake, volcano or destructive weather  directly are the most prone to enter transition states, but those of you  who are empathic in nature can experience the brunt of a natural or  manmade disaster as if you were physically present.</p>
<p>Indeed as the veil that separates human consciousnesses from one  another dissolves, more and more of you will experience the changes  taking place in the world at a visceral level.</p>
<p>We now wish to address the question of a new creation for those of  you who may find yourself in the aftermath of a natural or manmade  disaster, such as an earthquake, a volcanic eruption, or destructive  weather patterns.</p>
<p>If the destructive force is strong enough, the perceptual markers of  your former reality may no longer exist. Your home or place of business  may no longer be there. You may find yourself dealing with shortages of  food and water, and there are any number of variables that can come  together to create a state of shock and overwhelm.</p>
<p>We wish to be very clear in what we are about to say. Shock and  overwhelm in the face of disasters are a natural mammalian response, and  if you are to transcend and transform the moment you must reach upward  to higher dimensions of your own existence, your own being, to those  realms of consciousness that are beyond time and space.</p>
<p>To the extent that you are able to incorporate the transcendent  aspects of your being as part of the equation for your survival, you  will be able to mitigate the shock and overwhelm.</p>
<p>The central feature that needs to be identified in the midst of chaos, any form of chaos, is <em>the portal of opportunity</em>.</p>
<p>This opportunity for survival or for a new life may present itself in  ways you do not expect. This is because the perceptual markers are no  longer in place and your consciousness may not recognize an opportunity  when it presents itself.</p>
<p>There is a deep-seated human habit, or tendency, that wishes to  conform new realities to those of the past. This would be an unfortunate  habit to engage in these situations.</p>
<p>There is much we could say about the hyper-dimensional realities  involved in choice making during chaotic events, but we wish to “cut to  the chase” and give that which will be most practical. Perhaps some  other time we can share with you our philosophical musings about your  infinite nature and the infinite possibilities that reside within you.  However, for now, let us be a little simplistic and give you a formula  to recognize and create opportunities for new life and a new destiny  when they present themselves to you.</p>
<p>Assuming that you have entered a transition state of consciousness  and that you have befriended the void point and are more or less  comfortable with the great uncertainty of your situation, this is what  we suggest.</p>
<p>Be curious and expect miracles.</p>
<p>By entering a state of curiosity you engage an aspect of your mind  that is free to move unfettered by expectation. It becomes very much  like the mind of a child, and it is this innocence—which is not the same  as childishness—that allows you to enter a vibratory state of  consciousness, which greatly benefits you.</p>
<p>By holding the expectation of miracles you release the power of  creation within you, and to the extent that you accomplish this you will  find increasing incidences of serendipity, coincidences of benefit and  unexpected treasures, whether they be physical in nature or mental and  emotional.</p>
<p>This combination of curiosity about what will happen next joined with  an expectation of miracles will move you rapidly from the void point to  a new life, a new creation, regardless of what might be happening for  those around you.</p>
<p>During collective transition states of consciousness it is helpful to  remember that each person is the creator of his or her own reality, and  in the midst of chaos people will make different choices and enter  different personal realities.</p>
<p>Do not be swayed by those who enter lower vibratory realms. You  cannot save them from themselves. Look upward and live upward with  curiosity and an expectation of miracles, and even in the gravest of  situations miracles can, and will, occur for you.</p>
<p><strong>Physical Death</strong></p>
<p>One of the greatest difficulties for embodied beings is the  transition state of consciousness you call death. This is due to the  fact that all perceptual markers, including the five senses, disappear.  If a person identifies solely with his/her material existence, he or she  will find this transition state to be most difficult. This is because  what she or he identified with no longer exists.</p>
<p>Although the physical world continues on, there is no input into  consciousness from the five senses. It is as if the world has vanished  and the body along with it. The great I Am, the central feature of  transcendent consciousness, no longer receives information from the  body, the five senses, or the external world. This can be deeply  disturbing and disorienting for someone who has not directly experienced  the other realms of his or her being.</p>
<p>Metaphorically speaking, you are like a vast tree, a <em>Tree of Life</em>,  with many branches and many, many leaves and blossoms, and your current  physical existence is just one of these leaves and one of these  blossoms.</p>
<p>When a person passes through the transition state of consciousness  you call death there are several options. If you are in a spiritual  tradition the central figure of which is a guru, avatar or savior, you  can follow the path of this being into the vibratory realm of his/her  consciousness. In some religions this is known as heaven.</p>
<p>If you follow the path of a guru, avatar or savior understand that  you are entering into his/her heaven, her/his vibratory attainment, and  by necessity you enter also into his/her limitations in consciousness.</p>
<p>From our perspective the universe is infinite in nature, and by this  we refer not to external space but to the interdimensional realities of  your universe, and there is no single being in existence, from our  experience, who understands and embraces all that is.</p>
<p>If, however, you wish to join your guru/avatar/savior in the death  realms we have a few suggestions. One is to mentally call upon his/her  name. This is an ancient understanding encapsulated in the Egyptian term  <em>Ren</em>, meaning name. When you call upon the name of a spiritual being an aspect of him/her is compelled to move toward you.</p>
<p>If, in that moment of encountering your guru/avatar/savior, he or she  deems you worthy, you will be taken by him/her into his/her heavenly  realm.</p>
<p>For those of you in eastern spiritual traditions there are mantras  connected with specified deities. Chanting these mantras mentally during  death, or in the death realms, has the same effect.</p>
<p>For those of you who are not part of a spiritual tradition that  follows a guru, avatar or savior, then the transition state of  consciousness called death offers other possibilities.</p>
<p>As with the other two transition states of consciousness, the death  realm has a void point, and its dominant features are stillness  (silence) and darkness. All possibilities exist within the Void, but no  actuality is in existence. It is like the acorn of an oak tree. The oak,  the giant tree itself, is potentially within the acorn, but it does not  yet exist.</p>
<p>So when you find yourself in the Void, which you will recognize by  the fact that you are utterly alone in darkness and utter stillness,  know that you are in the central nexus of your creative powers.</p>
<p>What you choose to create next will determine the course of your  destiny and what worlds you will inhabit or realms of existence you will  reside in. This is a critical juncture.</p>
<p>Many persons frightened by the darkness move to the light  prematurely. And what they do not realize is that in their yearning they  create the light. A portal opens before them, like a tunnel, and they  can move into this tunnel of light, encountering those they have known  before, thereby entering back into embodiment or other vibratory realms  of existence without having fully understood the consequences. This is  certainly one option open to you, and one that is often taken.</p>
<p>Another option, however, is to remain at the void point, residing in the Void itself, becoming aware of your Self as <em>pure consciousness</em>—transcendent to all phenomena.</p>
<p>If you reside in this state of awareness long enough without the need  to create something, you will discover your identity as the great I Am.  And from this point of awareness you can choose the circumstances of  your embodiment. You can choose the worlds you will inhabit or the  realms of consciousness where you will reside.</p>
<p>This latter method gives you the greatest opportunities, though it is  the most difficult for most people. And the reason for this difficulty  has to do with the fact that most humans find it uncomfortable to not  have a body. The yearning for a body and the experience of the material  world often draws a person from the Void prematurely.</p>
<p>In summation, due to the intensifying phases of the Chaotic Node many  of you will find yourselves in transitional states of consciousness.  Regardless of what level you find yourself engaged in, whether it be  your personal life, the collective experience, or the transition state  you call death, know that you are the creator of your reality.</p>
<p><strong>The Hathors</strong><br />
April 20, 2011</p>
<hr />
<h2>Tom’s Thoughts and Observations</h2>
<p>I personally find this message to be stunningly eloquent and a vast  storehouse of information. I have read and re-read this message several  times, and each time I discover something new. There is, indeed, much to  be read between the lines in this communication.</p>
<p>I especially liked the Hathors’ statement…</p>
<blockquote><p><em>“Be careful what new (perceptual) markers you put  into place, for these ideas and beliefs will be the stars in the new sky  of your mind, and you shall navigate your way into these new times by  the stars (thoughts and beliefs) that you have placed in the heavens of  your own consciousness. So be wise when you go about creating new stars,  our fellow navigators of the mystery.”</em></p></blockquote>
<p>At the level of our collective mind, I think our mythic realities are  changing. The old stars, those thoughts, beliefs and presuppositions  about reality that have guided us as a culture for millennia seem now to  be dimming, not to mention that they have led us in directions many of  us no longer wish to go.</p>
<p>The collective ship of our culture seems to be plying through the  waters of the Great Mystery with little regard for the sacredness of  this planet or life upon it. But even as our collective vessel sails  through the Great Mystery, seemingly without awareness, it (the ship)  and we owe our very existence to the Mystery itself. This very odd  duality seems, to me, either amusing or tragic, depending upon what mood  I am in, and how connected I am or disconnected I have become from the  Mystery itself.</p>
<p>One of the ironies of our situation is that the crew of this vessel,  those who make it sail, through an investment of their life-force,  creativity and, in some cases, blood sweat and tears, are no less than  you and me, and all the other nearly seven billion humans alive on this  exquisite planet. We are—all of us—crewing this vessel, regardless of  our personal situation, our life station or our beliefs.</p>
<p>There are those in the New Age community who say, and have been  saying for years now, that we are near Unity, and that the Golden Age is  just around the corner. I do not share this perception.</p>
<p>We are all in the same boat together, whether we like it or not, and  it seems to me that our crew is polarized. There are many who insist  that the paradigms of greed, arrogance and usurpation are the true  reference points for our sextants.</p>
<p>Others of us, however, are sensing that we are headed in the wrong  direction—that we can no longer ravage this planet and its life (both  human and other-than-human). For us, there are new stars in the sky of  our minds. And we are setting our sextants clearly upon these cosmic  beacons.</p>
<p>How it will all turn out is anybody’s guess. But I am encouraged by a silent mutiny I see happening all around me.</p>
<p>Many of us crew members, and I suspect that if you have read this far  you may be one of them, are silently taking action to turn our  collective vessel (i.e. our cultural madness) around or at least slow it  down.</p>
<p>Some of us are pulling out our sextants and are pointing out new  stars to those around us. We do this by living the change we wish to  see. We do this by having the courage to live by a new Earth-reality  that we sense is possible. We do this by extending kindness to each  other.</p>
<p>And when necessary, we do this by standing our ground. I am reminded  in this of a grass roots movement in some of the world’s poorest  countries to preserve the use of non-hybrid seeds—seeds that produce new  seeds when crops are harvested—rather than succumb to international  economic interests that would enslave the poorest of the Earth to buy  new seeds whenever they wish to feed themselves and their families.</p>
<p>As I write this, I am nearly weeping at their courage to stand up  against the Titans that have set the course for our collective vessel  through greed, arrogance and an utter disregard for the sanctity of  life.</p>
<p>As difficult and as challenging as these times are both for  individuals and the collective, I think there is hope in the uncertainty  that we are facing. I say this because the human spirit has sometimes  risen to heights when faced with dire uncertain times.</p>
<p>If the Hathors are correct, all of us will face numerous transition  states of consciousness before our time on Earth has ended. The  perceptual markers of our old reality are being displaced. How we deal  with the loss of our perceived reality and the old world will determine  the next cycle of Earthly existence for humanity.</p>
<p>And for us individually, what we choose to create in the transition states of <em>our</em> lives will determine the realms of consciousness that are opened to us.</p>
<p>I wish you, my fellow crew members and those whom you love, safe  passage through these turbulent times. But regardless of what happens,  regardless of where and in what situations we find ourselves upon this  perilous journey, let us remember that we are—above all else—creators of  our own reality.</p>
<p>There are new stars in the sky and new worlds to discover. Be bold. And have a good journey.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently a Dutch television program has brought to light that penetration of children under 12 is presently not always considered rape in current Dutch law. This has caused much outrage in Holland and brought me to consider the violence that lies behind matters like this. It reminds me of a discussion that was had in Holland and the UK about whether or not it is acceptable to hit children as a punishment. As far as I am aware neither country was able to pass a law completely banning this (as they did in Sweden many years ago) This says a lot about the societies of which we are all part.</p>
<p>As far as I can see the fact of the matter is that we are in part, a violent people. We feel it is wrong and try to pass legislation to control it but that doesn&#8217;t change the fact that we are violent. We even have laws governing how we conduct wars; so now we have legal and illegal ways of slaughtering each other; which is ridiculous. I feel the only comprehensive way of dealing with this is a deep and honest look at the violence in ourselves.</p>
<p>At this time there are at least 3 wars being fought in our name and with our tax money and presumably our consent, at least there seems to be very little resistance to this in western countries. We have been violent for centuries; to each other, to children, to animals and to our own Mother Earth the violence (rape) has been perhaps the worst of all.</p>
<p>It is inevitable that a violent people will also be violent towards their children be it physically, sexually or psychologically. Non violence, as I see it, is just the other side of the violence coin. You can&#8217;t be violent and practise non-violence. Even the great Mahatma Gandhi was confronted with this. A profound perception of the nature of the violence in us will lead to the ending of it. “Be the change you want to see in the world” not by fighting violence but by freeing ourselves from it&#8217;s grip.</p>
<p>I am convinced that we are entering into a new phase of evolution, a crossroads in human history where we will have the opportunity to choose between the old ways and a radically different way of living together in harmony with ourselves, the planet and all it&#8217;s inhabitants. A huge and inevitable change is upon us just as most spiritual teachings and indigenous peoples have predicted. Choosing the new will be a leap into the unknown and will require much courage. Choosing the old way, well I &#8216;d rather not even think about it. These changes are happening now, it&#8217;s up to us.</p>

It offers in depth interviews with leading figures covering everything from spirituality and consciousness to whistleblowers, healers and alternative energy advocates. Although this part of the site requires a small subscription it is well worth it given the depth and quality of the material. You can get a free 3 day pass to view some of the many interviews available. There is also an abundance of  interesting stuff in the free section of the site; daily video and news/ information updates, music, books, radio and much more.</p>
<p>Regina and Scott Meredith, the founders and owners of the site excel in their professionalism, hard work and understanding of the material they are dealing with, making CMN one of the most reliable sources of alternative information on the net. Their motto is &#8220;Question everything&#8221;. I am indebted to them for introducing me to knowledge and insights which have long been hidden for most of us. I highly recommend checking out this inspiring site. <a href="http://www.cmn.tv/cmn/welcome-to-cmn/">Conscious Media Network</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #ffcc99;">Wikipedia: Metaphor is the concept of understanding one thing in terms of another. A metaphor is a figure of speech that constructs an analogy between two things or ideas; the analogy is conveyed by the use of a metaphorical word in place of some other word.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">A few years ago a good friend of mine died of cancer. She was a heavy drinker and carried quite a bit of anger around with her. She wasn&#8217;t feeling well and went to the doctor. To his amazement he found that she had a very advanced form of cancer. He could not understand that she had not complained of symptoms earlier as she must have been in much pain. She was dead a week later.</span> The reason I mention this is to show that it is possible to carry around a huge amount of suffering and pain and not be aware of it. As things got worse and worse she must have accepted it as &#8220;normal&#8221;.</p>
<p>I see her experience as a metaphor for our society. How bad does it need to get before people notice? As I write there are in all likelihood three nuclear power stations in meltdown. Not to mention the wars or more accurately crusades that are been carried out in our name, climate change, financial meltdown and looming food shortages. I watched the BBC news just now and there was no mention about the nuclear disaster in Japan, although there was a 5 minute piece on cricket players recording pop songs. As most people sit hypnotised in front of their televisions humanity approaches a crossroads. The decisions we make now will determine whether or not we will survive as a species. Business as usual will almost certainly result in our demise. I believe that we can pull through all this and create a world together that would be a paradise compared to what we have now. Don&#8217;t expect our current leaders to have any part in this though. It is up to us, it&#8217;s time to take responsibility; which means the ability to respond.</p>
<p>While on the subject of metaphors, here&#8217;s how many of us feel:</p>
<p>Imagine you are walking along a railroad with a good friend. You hear a train coming and suggest that you should get off the track. &#8220;No I don&#8217;t believe in trains&#8221; your friend says. Frustrating isn&#8217;t it?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I uploaded a new song &#8220;Inside job&#8221; to you-tube and Reverb nation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In this short song I touch on three of the for me most important issues  of our time; The banking system, of which most people have little idea  about how it really works, 9-11, which launched two wars and more  freedom restricting legislation than any other event in history and  Israel, which seems to me to be the biggest problem in the middle east.</p>
<p>Obviously  these issues can not be covered in depth in less than thee minutes. As  the coverage in the mainstream media has been, to put it mildly,  lacking, I strongly urge those who have not already done so to research  them on the internet. As the saying goes; &#8220;the truth will set you free  but first it will piss you off&#8221;</p>
<p>www.stevephillips-music.com</p>
<p>Inside Job</p>
<p>How come we gave<br />
so much money to the bankers<br />
when then gambled it all away<br />
How can it be<br />
that they&#8217;re given so much bonuses<br />
after the mess they made</p>
<p>Seems like<br />
an inside job<br />
watching each other&#8217;s backs<br />
covering up the facts</p>
<p>How can we deny<br />
that the tragedy of 9-11<br />
was not what it seems<br />
Who can explain<br />
why the science is so blemished<br />
that it&#8217;s unbelievable</p>
<p>Seems like<br />
an inside job<br />
watching each other&#8217;s backs<br />
covering up the facts</p>
<p>Why is it so<br />
that history was rewritten<br />
for the land of Palestine<br />
There are no other words<br />
but Zionist apartheid<br />
for what&#8217;s happening over there</p>
<p>Seems like<br />
an inside job<br />
watching each other&#8217;s backs<br />
covering up the facts<br />
covering up their tracks</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I am writing our leaders are entering yet another war and dropping bombs on the very civilians who they claim to be protecting. How anybody can seriously believe that the attack  on Libya has anything to do with looking after Libyan people or democracy is beyond me. Nobel peace laureate, warmonger Obama can&#8217;t even look after his own people, and has shown little interest in supporting the many peoples worldwide who to this day are being suppressed and murdered by despots who the west support. Meanwhile what could well be the worst nuclear disaster the world has ever faced has all but disappeared from the news. To use Obama&#8217;s words there is nothing to worry about and just watch the television. I guess he probably reckons that the troubled gross national product of his county stands to greatly benefit from the potential increase in cancer along the west coast, not to mention the profit of wars.</p>
<p>It should be obvious to all that our leaders are not in this because of their compassion. Oil is undoubtedly part of the reason but I feel strongly that it goes deeper that that. For years now the west has unquestionably supported Israel and done absolutely nothing about the (to my knowledge) more than 70 UN resolutions passed against it. This number would have been much greater had America not vetoed many of them including the recent security council resolution that would have declared Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal. The plight of the Palestinians under the tyranny of Israel is as bad or worse than those suffering under the most misled dictators. The reason I believe the west and it&#8217;s partner Israel are using so much force there has to do with the Esoteric and or occult importance of the area. I don&#8217;t know enough about this to expand on it here but would be very interested in the views of others on this.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t believe that the situation in Libya has anything to do with a real peoples uprising. If the people can organise revolutions via facebook then so can the CIA or Mossad or any other group of unelected policy makers for that matter. This link heps explain that phenomenon:<a title="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/mar/17/us-spy-operation-social-networks?INTCMP=SRCH" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/mar/17/us-spy-operation-social-networks?INTCMP=SRCH" target="_blank"> http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/mar/17/us-spy-operation-social-networks?INTCMP=SRCH</a> Whatever you think of Gadaffi (who the west until now has embraced) there are many out there who are much worse about whom we do nothing. My guess is Gadaffi wasn&#8217;t &#8220;playing by the rules&#8221; made by the global elite who are truly running this planet.</p>
<p>Most people in the middle east and North Africa as well as places like South America have come to see the west as crusaders, implementing their imperialist agendas for their own gain. As biased as this view might be it is a lot more accurate than the opinions that the western mainstream media spoon feed it&#8217;s unthinking masses.</p>
<p>War is peace, education as it stands discourages free thinking as well as puttung you into debt, modern food production robs the food and the soil of nutrients, democracy has become just another word for colonialism and the list goes on. It&#8217;s a mixed up topsy turvey, upside down word. I wonder how long it will take the people of the west to wake up and start their own revolution.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the full extent of the tragedy in Japan unfolds the extent of the damage to the nuclear power plants is also being exposed. If as I suspect the situation is far worse than  the authorities are telling us then depending on which way the wind blows, many will be exposed to dangerous levels of radiation. One ominous sign of the seriousness of the situation is the fact that they are now pumping sea water into reactors so as to prevent meltdown. Pumping sea water into the reactors will make them unusable in the future, a step which would only be taken in the most dire circumstances.</p>
<p>I found this article on miso (a Japanese fermented soya paste available in most health food stores) at http://<a href="http://www.mitoku.com/products/miso/atomic_metals.html" target="_blank">www.mitoku.com/products/miso/atomic_metals.html</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffff99;"><em><strong>Miso Helps Protect the Body Against Atomic Radiation and Heavy Metal Poisoning</strong></em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffff99;">It may have been our fear of fallout from the impending nuclear  holocaust or from nuclear power plant meltdowns that first attracted  Westerners to miso. During the 60&#8242;s, students of macrobiotics and Zen  began hearing about Dr. Shinichiro Akizuki, director of Saint Francis  Hospital in Nagasaki during the second World War. Although Akizuki spent  years treating atomic bomb victims just a few miles from ground zero,  neither he nor his staff suffered from the usual effects of radiation.  Akizuki hypothesized that he and his associates were protected from the  deadly radiation because they drank miso soup every day.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffff99;"> In 1972, Akizuki&#8217;s theory was confirmed when  researchers discovered that miso contains dipilocolonic acid, an  alkaloid that chelates heavy metals, such as radioactive strontium, and  discharges them from the body. However, the most convincing evidence  demonstrating the protection miso offers to those exposed to radiation  was published in Japan in 1989. Professor Akihiro Ito, at Hiroshima  University&#8217;s Atomic Radioactivity Medical Lab, read reports of European  countries importing truckloads of miso from Japan after the accident at  the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Ito reasoned that if people were  protected from radiation by miso, then rats that were fed miso and  radiated should develop less cancer than radiated rats that were not fed  miso. Professor Ito was not surprised to find that the liver cancer  rate for rats that were not fed miso was 100 to 200 percent higher than  that of rats that were fed miso. Ito also reported that rats that were  fed miso had much less inflammation of organs caused by radioactivity.</span></p>
