When Your Back’s Against the Wall, Don’t Be There

Zen Gardner, Guest
Waking Times

That’s simply it – just don’t be there. If at all possible you shouldn’t be in a place like that. If you can avoid getting pinned against anything, that’s your smartest move. That’s why I like to keep changing and moving. But you can’t be carrying a lot of baggage if you want to do that, physically or spiritually.

Now’s a good time to free yourself from attachments and be ready for anything. Each according to his own, but you don’t want to get caught flatfooted if you can avoid it.

In my basketball days we had a defensive drill where you’d take your stance and the coach would come and try to push you over. If you were on your heels you’d fall back quick and easy. But if you’re in a ready stance, knees bent, arched back, on your toes with your hands extended for balance, you not only couldn’t be pushed over, you could easily move side to side, front to back, block passes and shots, and even steal the ball.

Huge Victory: USDA Introduces Official Non-GMO Label

usda-non-gmo-label-approved

For years the public has been asking the U.S. government to institute mandatory labeling for any products containing genetically modified ingredients. Now, in response to the sounds of public outcry and vital activism, the United States Department of Agriculture is being forced to do something. The agency has developed a new government certification which companies can use to show that the product is completely free of GMOs.

Though the food advancement is arguably just tip-toeing around mandatory GMO labeling, it is definitely a sign that our government agencies are being forced to listen to our collective voice, and that they are really recognizing that there needs to be something in place that can clearly differentiate GMO-riddled and non-GM foods.

Unite, Social and Spiritual Revolutionaries


Credit: Theloverevolution.tumblr.com

By Wes Annac, Culture of Awareness

You might’ve heard that we’re undergoing a social and spiritual revolution, but what exactly does this mean?

Some people are familiar with the idea of social revolution, which we have people like Che Guevara and Bob Marley to thank for, while others are more familiar with spiritual revolution, which some well-known people like Russell Brand have brought to the mainstream’s attention.

In my eyes, social revolution can be described as a group of people, large or small, who are fed up with the way the system functions and are ready to bring it down and replace it with something that works for the people instead of a small handful of powerful elites and the corporations they run.

Moderate social revolutionaries plan rallies, protests and other events that are intended to get the world’s attention – either on a specific issue or a group of issues that have to do with the way our society functions – and these events are successful in some cases.

Spiritual revolution is similar, and it comes from people who are not only fed up with the system, but who understand that there’s a greater reality beyond our conscious understanding that, once we become aware of, we can tap into and use to help the world.

90 Year Old Tortoise Gets Around With His New Prosthetic “Legs”

Source: www.boredpanda.com | Original Post Date: May 3, 2015 –

When rats ate the front legs of a hibernating 90-year-old tortoise named Mrs. T in Pembrook, Wales, its owner, Jude Ryder, feared the worst. A £1,000 vet bill did little to improve the situation until Ryder’s mechanical engineer son Dale, 37, glued wheels from a model aircraft onto the tortoise’s shell, making her twice as fast. Dale had received Mrs. T as a gift when he was 8 and she was already in her 60s.

“It was like fitting her with a turbo charger – she’s going double the speed she used to,” said Ryder. “Mrs T is still quite young for a tortoise. She could go on for another 50 years – all she needs is a new set of tyres every now and again.”

Victory: German Retail Giant Removes Glyphosate From 350 Stores

Source: www.naturalsociety.com | Original Post Date: May 12, 2015 –

I recently snapped a photo from an advertising circular that was delivered to my home, proudly promoting Monsanto’s ‘probably carcinogenic’ Round Up, on sale no less, at a local hardware store. While US garden and DIY stores are still selling cancer-causing poison in a jug, a German retail giant will no longer carry glyphosate-containing products as of September 30, 2015

More than 350 ‘toom Baumarkt DIY’ stores belonging to the REWE Group are removing any product that contains this endocrine disrupting chemical concoction, and as of today, no such products can be re-ordered from their stores.

Nestle CEO Defends Bottling Water In Drought-Stricken California: ‘I’d Increase Bottling If I Could’

Source: www.addictinginfo.org | Original Post Date: May 14, 2015 –

Nestle’s CEO wants consumers to know one thing: For him, using up millions of gallons of water in drought-stricken California is strictly business and business is booming.

The embattled head of Nestle Waters North America defended his ongoing use of water in the rapidly drying region by saying if he didn’t use the water, one of his competitors would. Throughout an interview with a hydrologist from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab, CEO Tim Brown insisted on a twisted free market view that says as long as profits could be made, profits should be made:

10 Keys to Ascension: Day 255, Men 8

10 KEYS TO ASCENSION   In one sense, you are already perfect and pure, but in another sense, there is much you wish to experience, thus you have temporarily separated yourself from Source. Know that you are truly not separate, for within you resides the Oneness of Source. You have chosen individuation, just for a time. In the Earth Realm, it was decided that this feeling of separation would be allowed to exist. Many of you sense that time is near its end and are thus propelling yourselves forward at a speed that is unrecorded in the history of the universe. To best ensure your success in these endeavors while embodied in human form, consider the following. Rest when you are tired. Eat foods that are as close to their natural state as possible. Be kind to yourself and others. Laugh often. Enjoy life. Choose jobs that give you joy. Be respectful of the beliefs of others. Pay close attention to your own beliefs. Pray often. Feel gratitude in every moment. These are ten key ingredients in your ascension process. Develop your daily routines around them and watch as your life unfolds before you as beautiful as the opening of the lotus blossom.   Selamet!  Men 8 There is much more to this inspirational Message. Read the rest by scrolling to Day 255 at: https://mayanmessages.wordpress.com/days-248-260   Please include this web address when posting and sharing.  Many blessings, Theresa Crabtree

Archetype of Wholeness: Jung and the Mandala

Peter Patrick Barreda, Guest
Waking Times

In his writings on mandala symbolism, Carl Jung refers to the mandala as “the psychological expression of the totality of the self.” Within everyone’s psyche, to one degree or another, can be found a seed-center of the self surrounded by a chaotic maelstrom of issues, fears, passions and countless other psychological elements. It is the very disordered state of these elements that creates the discord and emotional imbalances from which too many of us suffer on a regular basis. The mandala is a template for the mind, a state of peace and order, a resolution of the chaos within. In Jung’s words,

“The severe pattern imposed by a circular image of this kind compensates the disorder and confusion of the psychic state—namely, through the construction of a central point to which everything is related.”

Science: Plants Have Senses and Can Hear, Feel and Identify Attackers

Alisa Opar, Guest
Waking Times

The plant world is a violent place. When munching caterpillars or grazing cattle set their sights on a luscious leaf, a plant can’t hightail it out of harm’s way. Instead, flora fight back with noxious chemicals. But what repels one critter may not work on the next hungry mouth, explains Heidi Appel, a senior research scientist in the Bond Life Sciences Center at the University of Missouri. She’s found that some plants can actually hear their attackers noshing away, discern which species is chowing down—and respond accordingly to each assailant.

That’s right: Plants can hear and feel touch, and Appel’s work is revealing that their sensory systems are far more complex than previously realized. “They are way more clever than we give them credit for,” she says. They also have their own way of seeing, she points out—just watch a seedling grow toward a light source—and smelling, too, in how they sense volatiles released as warning signals by other plants.

Triple Water Astrology – The Critical Degree! Weekly Horoscope – Week Starting Friday, May 15, 2015

crop4

Please like my page at http://www.facebook.com/triplewaterastrology!

This is a busy week in the Gemini sign! Mars is already in early Gemini, and Mercury in his home sign, Gemini, will retrograde this week. The Moon also saunters through Gemini for a few days and very importantly, Sun enters Gemini at the end of the week. Potentially productive activities this week include use of assertive communication, actively networking, and ambitiously gathering information. Mercury’s retrograde quality is nothing to be feared! He is saying a second or third effort might be worth the trouble, and even return a more favorable result than success on the first try.

The struggle between Mercury and Neptune, both in their home signs, continues this week. Mars’ drive, ambition, and will acts with Mercury’s logic and thought, and both are in tension with the planet of inspiration and imagination. Mercury additionally takes on some of the qualities of nearby Mars, as Mercury is a neutral planet. Thus a lot of willful energy for socializing and step-by-step problem solving is available. Neptune’s better qualities (creativity, for example) can be part of the Mercury-Mars theme, given the effort. Be wary of misunderstandings and expending energy in vain, however!

No Two Ways about Oneness

Of thee I sing. My children, I call you to Me, and you come to Me, each fitting within the other, until there is One Totality Who sings in answer to My calling you. You populate My thoughts. You shadow Me until you know that We become One, and One Alone Is. Oneness reigns. You are encapsulated within Me until any perceived distinctions are no longer, and, then, there is Oneness alone, yet Oneness is never alone.

There is no sovereign, for One does not rule nor is One ruled. Oneness loves. Love is a reverberation. It is a high note, in truth, as all notes sung are high. There is no low. There is no differentiation. There is no affectation. There is only Oneness, the innocence of Oneness which makes no comparisons. There is nothing to compare when Oneness is known and you have entered its gateway and passed the gate.

So, Who are You, and Who am I when there is no difference? If I am you, are you not I? When one heart beats, what can distract? And who can be distracted? Where lies the rub when Oneness is All? Whose hand holds Mine when there is no hand but Mine to hold? What interruption can there be in Oneness? What loss? What favor or disfavor? Love is love, and there are no two ways about Oneness.

The Taboo Against Paranormal Experience is a Taboo Against Freedom

Paranormal-1

Jon Rappoport, Guest
Waking Times

For those who want to examine a rigorous presentation of the paranormal, based on a long history of laboratory experiments, I recommend Dean Radin’s classic, The Conscious Universe: The Scientific Truth of Psychic Phenomena. (HarperCollins, 1997)

This article is not about that.

It’s about a taboo.

On the one side, we have people who denigrate the possibility of the paranormal. On the other side, we have people who, ungrounded in the physical world, try to stage what amounts to a paranormal escape operation, only to fall back into their increasingly chaotic circumstances.

In the middle are persons who have genuinely experienced the paranormal, know it, feel no obsession to shout it from the rooftops, and go on with their lives.

11 Ways to Detoxify Your Third Eye And Reignite Your Pineal Gland

The pineal gland is derived from the Latin word Pinea and is the size of a grain of rice. It received its name because of its likeness to a pine cone. The pineal gland is responsible for production of melatonin. When your body is deficient in melatonin, symptoms will erupt such as premature sexual development, insomnia, cancer, alzheimers and mental disorders such as Bi-polar.

The pineal gland is known as the third eye, because of its resemblance to the retina in the physical eyes. Light enters the body through the retina of the eyes and is sent to the brain which then sends it to the gland.

The third eyes’ function gives also the ability of extra-sensory perception, enhanced intuition, psychic awareness, and is the house of your inner wisdom or inner eye (I) of the metaphysical body or spirit. It is your vortex of command.

People are mediocre; not that they are born mediocre. Every child is born utterly intelligent, absolutely intelligent, but we destroy intelligence. That's what we do with our children in the schools, colleges, universities. These are the factories where we create machines and destroy human beings. These are the factories for mis-education, where we go on throwing more and more information into the child without ever helping him to become more aware, more meditative, more silent. We never teach the child how to be silent, how to be alone, how to sit by a tree sometimes and just be still - just still, watching the green of the trees and the red of the trees and the gold of the trees, and the sun, and the birds on the wing - just simply being there, utterly silent, not doing a thing, not thinking, just being, breathing in great joy, in great gratitude. We never teach children how to be open to existence.
