Event: A NEW CIVILIZATION

Date: Sunday, August 6th at 1pm CST

Explore what it would mean to exercise our power of Prior Unity, be part of humankind first, and plant the seeds for a new civilization. "Power in the hands of a few cannot manipulate the total collective, if the total collective exercises its inherent power of prior unity and self-organizing energy." -The World-Friend, Adi Da.

Register:

The great spiritual traditions of humankind remind us that we are all a part of the same Divine Reality and are one at the heart. Our hearts have a deep heart-intuition of this, even if we haven’t seen it lived out in the world around us. What would happen if we tried to live our lives guided by t...

Happy Holidays to everyone. Holidays are a great opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends. Just keep the door of your heart open so they can fill it up with peace, positivity, and love!

Other people, including my parents, can afford to be unkind—I can’t!
I have to take care of my part or there is no peace.
Peace is your job to take on, it is not the job of others.
It is your life that needs healing and when you heal it, others follow.
That is the way of it, and don’t expect it.
Work on yourself in the name of peace, angel, your own.
Start there first, my little heart.

Did you know that a plant-based diet is a powerful tool for preventing, managing and even reversing type 2 diabetes? The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine has put the plant-based diet to the test with thousands of patients who have type 2 diabetes and determined that a plant-based diet controlled blood sugar three times more effectively than a traditional diabetes diet that limited calories and carbohydrates. Their studies showed that eating a diet high in fatty foods can cause fat particles to build up inside our cells. These fat particles interfere with insulin’s ability to move sugar out from our bloodstream and into our cells.

The first step in this pursuit is one of responsibility. The masters have revealed to us the truth about our condition, but they could not fix it for us. Neither is there a god in heaven that will set everything right. Only we have access to our inner world and only we can set things straight. How? Through the light of our own conscious awareness.

On September 23, the sun enters the sign of Libra, highlighting relationships, partnerships and collaboration. It also causes you to look at the balance you have in your life. On the same day, Mercury retrograde enters the sign of Virgo, and then it will be time to revise your schedule, reflect on your health habits, or reshape your work routines.

The full moon in Pisces is on September 10. This is the first full moon we’ve had in a while that is not doing difficult aspects. So this could be a peaceful time, at least for a couple of weeks. Being that it’s the full moon, this is a good time for parties and get-togethers. And over the course of the following two weeks, look at what you can release, do some decluttering, or let go of an emotional burden.

When viewing the world around us through the lens of envy, we not only see ourselves as inadequate, but we become deeply alienated from others and life in general. We become increasingly isolated and alone. We imagine that somewhere along the road we took a wrong turn and became “different.” We often feel on the outside of things, looking in. But all of this crippling psychological energy is based only on what we perceive around us, and much of that, as it turns out, is distorted by lies and pretense.

My Grand Mother always cooked tasty food. But one day, she put a burnt pie in front of my Grandpa.
Not just a little burnt, but black as coal.
I waited to see what my Grandpa would say.
But he just ate the pie and asked how my day was.
Then i heard my Grand Mother apologize to him for his dinner.
I'll never forget his response.
"Dear, i like your pie."
Later, i asked him if he had told the truth.
He put his arm on my shoulder and said, "Your Grandma had a tough day at work."
"She was tired."
"The burnt pie didn't harm me but, a sharp word could have hurt her."
We all make mistakes.
We shouldn't focus on mistakes but, support those we love.
That's the secret of long and happy relationships...

Why is this matter of good and evil so important? Because it is our conditioned consciousness of good and evil that has made human life such a nightmarish affair for the past six thousand years. It has been the source of all our conflicts, wars, hostilities, hatreds, bigotries, etc. In fact, this age-long struggle in the human ranks has become such an integral part of the human experience that it has actually come to define us.

You may find your discussions have a serious or intense tone to them, when Mercury trines Pluto. You’re not interested in superficial conversations. Getting to the core of an issue may be easier if you enlist the help of a counsellor or astrologer. There’s a need to know and understand more, at a deep level.
