Daily Message ~ Sunday August 9, 2015

Have you ever taken a moment to think about what joy really is? Joy is such a whole-hearted embracing of the present moment it creates a full alignment with Source energy. If you wish to experience more joy in your life, consciously seek out activities that make it easy to embrace your Now.

It may be choosing to notice the splendour of nature. It may be opening yourself up to a stream of creation by writing or creating art. It may be spending time with your loved ones, small children or animals. It may simply be moving your body in a way that feels pleasing, or meditating, or giving prayers of thanks. Choosing to be of service to others is a heart based flow that will lead you to the right time/right place scenarios that allow you to feel that alignment, as well.

Joy does not need to be elusive, Dear Ones. It is simply choosing to place yourself in the conditions that allow your full presence and appreciation, and with that preference and a little awareness, you will find you can enter into that state more often, with ease, over the simplest of wonders. ~Archangel Gabriel

Yellow sludge spilled into river from Colorado gold mine reaches New Mexico

Mustard-colored wastewater laced with heavy metals continues to drain into a river from an abandoned mine in southwestern Colorado at a rate of about 550 gallons per minute, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, which caused the spill.

The rate of discharge Saturday was down from about 740 gallons per minute on Friday. But three days after the massive spill, the agency said it still didn't know what the possible environmental and health impacts are.

The agency said it hoped to have a thorough lab analysis of the contaminants — which include lead and arsenic — as soon as Saturday evening or Sunday morning.

15 Quotes From The Dark and Ingenious Mind of Bill Hicks

"Folks, it’s time to evolve. That’s why we’re troubled. You know why our institutions are failing us, the church, the state, everything’s failing? It’s because, um – they’re no longer relevant. We’re supposed to keep evolving. Evolution did not end with us growing opposable thumbs. You do know that, right?"

There are few stand-ups in the history of comedy who possessed more passion and vitriol than Bill Hicks. As with all the greats (Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Richard Pryor) he pushed the art-form to its limits, extracting alchemical gold from some of the darkest aspects of the human psyche. Nothing was untouchable. Everything from the war on drugs to the abortion debate to television being ‘Lucifer’s Dream Box’ were covered during his seemingly off-the-hook but meticulously well-crafted stage performances. At one point he actually displayed footage he shot himself of the tragedy in Waco Texas to demonstrate how the media distorts the truth and crafts propaganda to fit its agenda. One need only watch a handful of his performances to get a clear idea of his on-stage persona as an angry, outside-of-the box thinker with a razor-sharp mind and wits set on ‘kill’.

5 Ways to Deal With Difficult People

By Charles Francis

We all have difficult people in our lives—some almost impossible to get along with. It seems like almost every time we engage them, we end up getting caught in a power struggle, which can often escalate into volatile situations. Though it is indeed a challenge to turn these relationships around, we can at least make the situations significantly better.

They Are Wounded People

The first thing we need to remember is that difficult people are that way for a reason. They are often angry at the world because they feel hurt and victimized by the general population, so they take out their anger on everyone they encounter.

Sometimes, they are angry with people from whom they can no longer get justice, such as a parent or sibling who may have victimized them when they were a child. For them, it takes a great deal of work to heal these wounds. We sometimes make things worse by touching those wounds that have not yet healed. When we do this, we usually get a negative reaction.

How Can We Make Things Better?

God in the Highest

God said:

I have heard you cry out in the moonlight:

“Beloved God, God in the Highest. I love the sound of the words God in the Highest, and, of course, there is no other God but You. You are simply God, beyond description. How can we human beings attribute qualities to You, yet, of course, we do.

“You, God, Who manifest us, are unmanifest. You are in a realm behind the scenes, yet you are certainly present, and You speak and act through us. In fact, we don’t exist at all except in You, isn’t that so? That’s what I understand. Dear God, you are a puzzle I continually try to figure out.”

Yes, this is so. You puzzle. You are clearly puzzled. I am the Simple of the Simple. I see. I do not react. Talk about the Present, I present life, and I am the Present. My Board of Directors is One. I do not sit and ponder. I am One Motion. I cover the Universe, and I am the Universe. I do not hide. I see far and wide, yet I am hidden from your view, except as how the world turns. I am your Proponent. I do not once leave your side, yet you puzzle this. You wonder how you can feel so alone and it be true that I am by your side.

People believe only when something is written. Why do you believe in the Vedas? Why do you believe in the Bible? Why do you believe in the Geeta? It is a written document, ancient, of great prestige. What else is there? Just a great tradition supporting it.

If there had been no written record of Jesus, you would have forgotten all about Jesus. There have been many teachers and Masters of the capacity of Jesus, of the same calibre, but you don't even know their names.

In India, when Buddha existed and Mahavira was alive, there were many more teachers, at least six of the same calibre, of the same status, but you will not even know their names.

One of them was Prakuta Katyiaena, a rare gem. But he insisted that his words should not be written so that no tradition arise after him. Certainly his words were not written; no tradition has arisen, but people have completely forgotten even his name.

There was another great teacher, Buddha's contemporary, Purnakashyapa, but because no scriptures exist - they were written, but destroyed by the organized religion in India - nobody, knows anything about him.

People believe in the written word. People believe too much in their eyes. One should believe only in one's own experience. Nothing else should become a substitute, otherwise you start going false.

8 Reasons to Become a Yardfarmer

Yardfarmers is a new reality TV/documentary series hybrid for release in Spring 2017. It will follow a diverse set of six young Americans as they move back home with their parents to become yardfarmers. The production crew at Yardfarmers is currently searching for the right people to participate in the show. The concept is simple: follow six young Americans as they live with their parents and attempt to make a livelihood out of growing food in their parents’ and neighbours’ yards, random street flower boxes, churchyards, school yards, vacant lots, cemeteries, or whatever spaces they can find that can be converted from useless ornamental lawn into a new source of healthy, local, and sustainable food. (1)

Apart from raising awareness about some of the important issues and challenges we face, Yardfarmers is about converting unsustainable suburban developments, urban food deserts, or other neglected land into sustainable, more resilient opportunities for people while building community. While not everyone can be in a reality TV show like Yardfarmers, everyone can become a yardfarmer. With interest in the “grow your own” food movement which is gaining ever more traction, the show is destined to be a hit. Below are eight reasons to become a yardfarmer and join the yardfarming revolution…

Instagram Has Banned The Goddess

Attn: Gatekeepers at Instagram, aka Facebook...

I am writing with a very heavy heart and disappointed beyond words can express. First I would like to introduce myself to you. My name is Christine Gutierrez. I am 29 years old and I am a leading Latina Psychotherapist and spiritual guide for women of all ages. I spend my life working with women who have experienced trauma and abuse of all kinds. I fuse modern therapy with ancient wisdom. This is how they heal. This is how we come to peace with the chaos of everyday life.

The ancient wisdom texts that I work from are the stories of the GODDESS. Most of us are familiar with the archetype GOD, the masculine face of the divine. There is also a feminine face of the divine, to which we call her the GODDESS. She's also called GAIA, mother or shakti. In many spiritual paths, such as the one I practice, we devote ourselves to the feminine face of GOD, the Goddess, or Diosa in Spanish.

How to Live Free: 3 Steps to Regaining Your Freedom

Many of us have been brought up in such a way that we don’t live the life we would enjoy living–we follow rules and conform to society. Since a very young age our freedom has been taken away from us, and instead of living spontaneously, fully expressing ourselves and doing what we love doing, the majority of us are wasting out time living a life that has no meaning and leaves us utterly empty. Our freedom, however, can be regained–and here are three tips on how to live free that can utterly transform your life:

1. Don’t conform.

Conformity is the enemy of individuality and hence of freedom. In order to live free, we should be able to live the way we want to live, and not the way others live or want us to live...
