10 Simple Practices That Illuminate The Journey Of Enlightenment

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

Source: www.themindunleashed.org | Original Post Date: February 21, 2015 –

In our current age there is an explosion of ‘awakenings’ from all over our stunning, but strict, Mother Earth. An increased awareness is occurring in regards to personal health and well-being, the dysfunctional state of the world and our entanglement with reality. More and more people are working out how to actually find peace in this complex and challenging world.

Enlightenment is an ambiguous term that is sometimes misrepresented as the transcendence of our humanity. However, I’ve met some ‘enlightened’ people in my time, but they still seemed pretty human to me.

In this article I will simply define enlightenment as a personal journey through the awakening of our consciousness. That’s right: enlightenment is an ongoing path of growth – reaching from our very core right to the paradoxical edge of infinity.

Returning to Our Oneness

By Wes Annac, Culture of Awareness

It’s time for people to come together and learn to respect each other. It doesn’t matter what differences we seem to have – skin color, religious preference, political stance – it’s all been overhyped to keep us divided.

When we’re divided, we can’t do anything to stop the people who are ravaging the planet for profit. If we’re too busy fighting each other, we fail to see what they’re doing behind the scenes and not only we, but our planet, suffer in the end.

As we learn to respect each other, we can unite as one people to hold the elite accountable for what they’ve done and work to create something better.

We don’t all have to conform to the same opinion or outlook on life, and we don’t have to share each other’s beliefs. We should be able to respectfully tell someone we don’t think the same way as them (or be told that someone doesn’t think the same way as us) without any hatred or prejudice involved.

We can simply accept that we all think differently, and I look forward to a time when this simple fact no longer causes us to fight and shut ourselves off from each other. Then, we can work toward a better future with respect for each person’s unique outlook.

600 Reasons Turmeric May Be The World’s Most Important Herb

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

There is a medicinal spice so timelessly interwoven with the origins of human culture and metabolism, so thoroughly supported by modern scientific inquiry, as to be unparalleled in its proven value to human health and well-being.

Indeed, turmeric turns the entire drug-based medical model on its head.  Instead of causing far more side effects than therapeutic ones, as is the case for most patented pharmaceutical medications, turmeric possesses hundreds of potential side benefits, having been empirically demonstrated to positively modulate over 160 different physiological pathways in the mammalian body.

Philae comet lander wakes up, says European Space Agency

Submitted by will on

The European Space Agency (Esa) says its comet lander, Philae, has woken up and contacted Earth.

Philae, the first spacecraft to land on a comet, was dropped on to the surface of Comet 67P by its mothership, Rosetta, last November.

It worked for 60 hours before its solar-powered battery ran flat.

The comet has since moved nearer to the Sun and Philae has enough power to work again, says the BBC's science correspondent Jonathan Amos.

An account linked to the probe tweeted the message, "Hello Earth! Can you hear me?"

On its blog, Esa said Philae had contacted Earth, via Rosetta, for 85 seconds on Saturday in the first contact since going into hibernation in November.

Satellites To Provide Cheap Uncensored Internet To The World Ready For Launch

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk has announced that the company is currently developing a micro-satellite network that hopes to bring cheap and uncensored internet access to the world, and that they will begin testing the satellites in the next 6 months. Back in January, the company received a $1 billion donation from Google and Fidelity.

The initial program’s main objective “is to validate the design of a broadband antenna communications platform … that will lead to the final LEO [low-Earth orbit] constellation design,” SpaceX said in its FCC filings.

We reported last year, that Musk said that the company is in the early stages of development on the project. Responding to a comment about the cost of the service, Musk said that the internet service would be “unfettered certainly and at very low cost.”

Day 25: Changing Habits, Chicchan 12

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

CHANGING HABITS  In order to manifest anything, the basic order is the same for all scenarios. Clear your mind, speak you intention and then visualize the outcome. See yourself in the final outcome of the situation. As much as possible, feel those emotions; use your senses to see, touch, smell, taste and hear yourself in the situation.

By stating, visualizing and practicing what you want, you quickly break the habit by simply doing or being what it is you want to create. However, by stating the intention and visualizing yourself in the process of breaking the habit, you will find yourself in repeated patterns or situations that give you the choice to practice the behavior you wish to change. In most of these cases, the habit is never broken. Ponder on this until you see the full implications.

Practice it in any situation where you are able to shed old patterns and transform yourself into the beautiful being that you already are.  Selamet!  Chicchan 12

There is much more to this important Message. Read it in its entirety by scrolling to Day 25 at: https://mayanmessages.wordpress.com/mayan-message-days-14-26/   Please include this web address when posting and sharing with others.  Many blessings, Theresa Crabtree

How to Get What You Really, Really Want: One of the Deepest Secrets of Zen

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

Well, as opposed to so many other articles with such a blatant click-baity title, we’re not going to string you along here. In fact, we’ll give you the answer right now, right in the second sentence: STOP WANTING IT.

That’s it. Want nothing. Choose what shows up instead.

This is the very essence of zen. It is what is meant by the “surrendered state”. Do this, and persist in it long enough, and you will find some incredible things unfolding in your reality, very likely including those that you formerly really, really wanted. The irony? It won’t matter, because you don’t want them anymore! You’ll surely enjoy them while they last, but the terrible need you had for them to give you fulfilment is gone, and you could honestly care less if they showed up or not.

Can you think of a more pure definition of freedom?

Maybe the Scenery Is Moving

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

God said:

Life is easy. You think life is hard, yet life is easy. Life goes on as if by itself, sort of a wind-up toy.

You find yourself here on Earth. With or without your involvement, life takes strides. Your life takes strides. You can’t stop it. The sun rises, and the sun sets. You rise, and you go to sleep. You really can’t set life aside. You can’t control it all, and yet you have some say in it. You can commit yourself to certain directions. You can set your dial to what you want. Then, as with all dials, once you set it, you let it be and go about your business. Life has those elements that are as if you are riding a train.

You cannot set your life manually and manage every detail of it, for letting go is also a part of living life. Whether you let life be or you hold on tight, life goes its merry way and takes you with it. It is also part of life that you not know much ahead of time and be surprised at what life brings.

Once you lived in one town, and now you live in another. Or, once you lived in one country, and now you live in another country on the other side of the world. You may have made a conscious decision. Sometimes you wonder if you are the actual decider. You had say, yet it seems that somehow you got where you are as if propelled. You are riding in a jet plane to a destination known or unknown. You are all set either by your jurisdiction or by one kind of decree or another.

Your soul consists of the essential, and the essential is immortal. The non-essential is momentary, and we cling to the non-essential; hence we suffer, because we cannot keep hold of it. It disappears sooner or later. Whatsoever we do is futile because the momentary cannot be forever. Just as it comes, it goes. It is a wave, a ripple, a bubble; sooner or later it will be gone. For the moment it looks so beautiful - the sun is reflected in it and a small rainbow surrounds it - but it is just a soap bubble. You can play with it but don't become attached to it, otherwise you will suffer. And that's why people are suffering: they become attached to soap bubbles.

They have given different names to the soap bubbles. Somebody calls it love, somebody calls it money, somebody calls it power, somebody calls it life, prestige, and so on, so forth - but they are all soap bubbles. Any moment, they will be gone, and you will be left in despair.

To cling to the personality is to cling to soap bubbles.

Out Of Our Own Backyards – Rethinking The Future Of Food

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

The following article is an excerpt from my new book titled Rethink, Your world, Your future, which  has just been released.

Buying Local Can be Difficult

Buying local these days can be difficult, as most of the food in supermarkets travels thousands of miles. An example of the lunacy of the current food system is highlighted by a 2007 study conducted by Melbourne’s Centre for Education and Research in Environmental Strategies, or CERES. The study found that the average Australian basket of food has travelled over 70,000 kilometres from producer to consumer. The study analyzed 29 different food items purchased at a typical supermarket. These items included fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, and non-core food items such as chocolate. Typical across the globalized food system, the food in the basket of goods had been transported by road within Australia and by ship from other countries. Apart from the high transport miles, the energy which goes into the production of the products can also be far more significant in terms of global carbon emissions.

A Permanent Shift Into the Heart

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on


Credit: Korealizations.wordpress.com

By Wes Annac, Culture of Awareness

We’re on a journey of personal transformation, and some days will be harder than others. There will be times when we feel hurt, lonely and confused at the current state of our world, and there will be other times when we seem to soar through life without a care or concern.

Those are the times when we’re connected with our higher consciousness, and calling on this higher power will allow us to handle difficult circumstances with love and centeredness.

Our outlook on life, and especially the challenges we face, is entirely different when we’re rooted in love.

We understand that every difficult and stressful experience is a challenge of our ability to persevere and stay centered, and instead of treating life like an uphill climb, we flow through it with joy and excitement. Not to mention that it gets a lot easier to be patient.

I’m learning that we have to call on love if we want to make life simpler or more enjoyable. We have to summon it from within, even if we think we’re fooling ourselves or searching for happiness in the wrong places, because love and happiness can only come from inside of us.

Breathtaking Drone Footage Of Sudan’s Forgotten Nubian Pyramids

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

Amazing drone footage released last month from National Geographic Engineer Alan Turchik shows the world some excellent shots of the Northern Sudan’s 3000 year old pyramids.

Pyramids today remain a complete mystery to researchers, archaeologists, and scientists alike. Theories have have been put forth, but we still don’t have a concrete notion of how they were built or by whom, or even what their purpose is. There are still several questions that remain unanswered, which is why many of them are considered to be some of the greatest ancient unsolved mysteries in human history.

One of the most fascinating things about the pyramids is the fact that they have been discovered all over the world. They range in size but are remarkably similar in construction, and are known to have been built by several ancient civilizations – in several different time periods – all of which were completely unaware of each other’s existence. It’s truly remarkable and mind-blowing when you think about it, isn’t it?

Croatia Forgives Debt Of 60,000 Poor Citizens

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on

Source: www.collective-evolution.com | Original Post Date: February 11, 2015 –

We live in a world where so many of us are ruled by debt. We work long hours to earn as much as we possibly can but still find ourselves drowning in mortgage payments and credit card bills. As far away as “freedom” may be for most of us, it is still a distant light at the end of the tunnel – something that is attainable… eventually.

In a bold move to help those whose light faded long ago, the Croatian government – under the leadership of its Prime Minister Zoran Milanovic – has decided to forgive the debt of 60,000 of its poorest citizens. Meaning that 60,000 Croatians will be given the opportunity for a fresh start, something that the Croatian government hopes will both set them personally on the right path and also stimulate the country’s economy through new spending.
