Now is the time for everything

Part of the process is shedding the skin - unlearning the learnt. These are unprecedented times:

All Roads Lead Away From Rome

You are to disengage yourself from your old identity and disassociate from a declining Rome. After falling asleep profoundly, you are now expected to wake up, equally profoundly. Now is the time to dismantle all false identity. Now is the time to forget that which has been learned in deference to that which is deeply known. Now begins the awesome process of altering human history. Now is the time for everything, and now is here.


From now on, where will all roads lead: towards fear? Or towards a creative future of the Spirit?

It helps if we understand that what we take to be 'reality' is brought into manifestation through attention and intention. The dynamic of co-creation is that the universe often responds to human thought waves whether we are 'for' or 'against' the subject. Again:

Reality

The reality that you live is nothing more than an audio-visual demonstration of where your attention is. The universe presumes your attention is on what you want and graciously provides you with more of the same. If this dynamic were understood, you would never do anything so foolish as to declare a war on drugs—unless, of course, your objective were to create more of them. There is no better way to increase drug traffic than to have everyone’s attention focused on it. This same principle applies to increasing everything you think you oppose, and it is also the reason a war cannot be won. If you were serious about stopping drugs, the best course would be to stop being fascinated with them via your perceived opposition. Become fascinated with freedom instead, and your addictions will disappear naturally to satisfy your new preoccupation.

Because you have yet to understand your power of creation and who you really are, you perpetually put your attention on denial instead of affirmation. This results in the universe serving up an extra helping of what you thought you didn’t want. Although a number of you practice the art of affirmation as a tool for changing your realities, you can affirm until you are blue in the face and they may fail. Unless your attention and your identity have also been altered to accommodate what you affirm, the universe has no option but to fulfill your real, though hidden, attention’s desires. Until you understand the role that your attention and sense of identity play in your creation, your affirmation track record will remain a perplexing hit-and-miss affair.

It is time to use your powers wisely and create realities that are worthy of who you are. You can do this by changing what you communicate to be real to the universe through your focus, and the identity you project by way of that identity’s behavior. If you do not make this fundamental shift, you will continue to transmit the same old tired requests to a universe that will dispassionately and lovingly respond with the same old tired and often toxic answers.

Healing the Luminous Body

I have discussed Homo Luminous before on this blog, and the shamanic teachings of Alberto Villoldo. His institute The Four Winds Society offers teaching material for the training of western shamans. This material comes from a long tradition of the Earthkeepers whose sacred knowledge of feminine energies was kept alive throughout the centuries of masculine dominance. Much of the material here correlates with other material emerging at this time, and again emphasizes that such knowledge is being released now because these are auspicious times. A video of Alberto Villoldo speaking is below. Consider for yourself:

Co-Creating the Future: a new age of chivalry


The future, as astronaut Edgar Mitchell once said, is not to be discovered but created. This involves the co-creative partnership of combining ‘right mind’ or ‘right thinking’ with moments of change.


As the Internet increasingly becomes a space where people are becoming the creators, co-designers, and participating in peer-to-peer applications, a new form of complex interconnectivity is forming. This rapid acceleration of social connectivity is fostering what can be called ‘amplified shared knowledge’: knowledge sharing through digital social networks and collaborative tools such as Wikipedia. In effect these are collaborative tools designed to augment human intelligence and are being referred to as forms of an emerging collective intelligence. The term ‘collective intelligence’ can also mean bacterial, hive or insect intelligence; artificial intelligence; the spiritual ‘noosphere’; the ‘global mind’; ecology; and political governance. Whether in biological or social terms, the capacity for what is defined as ‘collective intelligence’ involves the ability to transmit, receive, utilize, and ultimately share, flows of information. It is an attempt to make human groups as conscious as possible of what they are doing together.

In terms of human-to-human connectivity, the transformation into planetary citizenship will be greatly affected by how our thoughts influence one another. How the future may/could be depends to a large degree upon how we ‘think’ and ‘feel’ and ‘believe’ about the future. After all, we are not separate from our environment. It is now quite well understood that we form part of a fabric/field of mind and intention. Fear and negativity poison our environment and tears holes into this invisible fabric in which we are immersed at all times. Fear has always been the principal tool of oppressors; it both dampens our energies and ambitions and deadens our thoughts. Fear degrades us, and insults our intelligence.

Grandfather Stalking Wolf once said that:

If a man could make the right choices, then he could significantly alter the course of the possible future. No man, then, should feel insignificant, for it only takes one man to alter the consciousness of mankind through the Spirit-that-moves-in-all-things. In essence, one thought influences another, then another, until the thought is made manifest throughout all of Creation. It is the same thought, the same force, that causes an entire flock of birds to change course, as the flock then has one mind...

We have an obligation to seed the fields of our human collective intelligence with the right choices, to influence a future we most care about. This is not sugary sweetness; these are the songs for an emerging age of chivalry. Where have all the troubadours gone, we may ask?

They are still here - within the songs that each one of us can sing. This, perhaps, is the essence of
Spirit that moves-in-all-things.

Healing from Within

The following extract is an important lesson that teaches our responsibility begins from within - this is 'our world': each individual is interconnected not only with each single aspect of the present but also with the future. This is why it is so important that we reach our own sacred spaces of harmony internally.

Simple Steps to Healing: I'm Sorry, I Love You
by Dr. Joe Vitale

Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients – without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane?

It didn't make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story.

However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at all true, I had to know more.

I had always understood "total responsibility" to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do. Beyond that, it's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibility that way. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone else does. The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people would teach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility.

His name is Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len. We probably spent an hour talking on our first phone call. I asked him to tell me the complete story of his work as a therapist. He explained that he worked at Hawaii State Hospital for four years. That ward where they kept the criminally insane was dangerous. Psychologists quit on a monthly basis. The staff called in sick a lot or simply quit. People would walk through that ward with their backs against the wall, afraid of being attacked by patients. It was not a pleasant place to live, work, or visit.

Dr. Len told me that he never saw patients. He agreed to have an office and to review their files. While he looked at those files, he would work on himself. As he worked on himself, patients began to heal.

"After a few months, patients that had to be shackled were being allowed to walk freely," he told me. "Others who had to be heavily medicated were getting off their medications. And those who had no chance of ever being released were being freed."

I was in awe.

"Not only that," he went on, "but the staff began to enjoy coming to work. Absenteeism and turnover disappeared. We ended up with more staff than we needed because patients were being released, and all the staff was showing up to work. Today, that ward is closed."

This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: "What were you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?"

"I was simply healing the part of me that created them," he said.

I didn't understand.

Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for your life means that everything in your life – simply because it is in your life – is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world is your creation.

Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is in your life.

This means that terrorist activity, the president, the economy – anything you experience and don't like – is up for you to heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to change them, you have to change you.

I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live. Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr. Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono means loving yourself. If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone – even a mentally ill criminal – you do it by healing you.

I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing, exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?

"I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again," he explained.

That's it?

That's it.

Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve yourself, and as you improve yourself, you improve your world. Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone sent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it by working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the person who sent the nasty message. This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying, "I'm sorry" and "I love you." I didn't say it to anyone in particular. I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was creating the outer circumstance.

Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying "I love you," I somehow healed within me what was creating him.

I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70 years old, considered a grandfatherly man, and is somewhat reclusive. He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improve myself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it when they read it. In short, as I improve, my readers will improve.

"What about the books that are already sold and out there?" I asked.

"They aren't out there," he explained, once again blowing my mind with his mystic wisdom. "They are still in you."

In short, there is no out there.

It would take a whole book to explain this advanced technique with the depth it deserves. Suffice it to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look: inside you.

"When you look, do it with love."

Dr. Len's message may be quite hard to believe, yet it's amazingly simple. He states that we are all responsible for everything that we see in our world. By taking full personal responsibility and then healing the wounded places within ourselves, we can literally heal ourselves and our world. As related by Joe Vitale in the radio interview, Dr. Len suggests a four-stage process for this work. Whenever a place for healing presents itself in your life, open to the place where the hurt resides within you, and say and feel as much as possible the below four sentences:

  • I love you.
  • I'm sorry.
  • Please forgive me.
  • Thank you.
