MY suggestion to MY people is: don't carry any idea of God, for or against. Don't carry any image of God. In fact, God is absolutely irrelevant -- be meditative! And meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself.

And then when you are in a state of no-mind, something unimaginable, unbelievable, unpredictable, inexpressible, is experienced. You can call it God, you can call it truth, you can call it NIRVANA, or whatsoever you want to call it. You are free because no word describes it, hence any word is as good as any other. But don't carry any belief.

When the Sun Sets

God said:

The Setting Sun. When the sun sets, no one bemoans it. Everyone knows that, when there is sunset, sunrise follows and vice versa. This is how the world is set up. There is no past when it comes to life. Only in world thought is there such a thing as past. In Truth, there is no future. There just is Is-ness. Is-ness is Infinity. Being-ness is Infinity. Beingness is. Infinity is.

The World of Doing is the relative world. I do not put down the relative world. I understand very well it's enormous importance to you. Nevertheless, the relative world is the world of illusion. Illusion also serves a purpose. The world of illusion, regardless of its significance, is not Truth.

Sunset and sunrise are two aspects of what is referred to as contrasting or opposite.

In Truth, there is Oneness. Oneness runs on a continuum. There are no sections of Oneness.

When it comes to living in the world, you see life as having a finality, as if the exit of a body is all there is to life, that life itself ends with the end of the body. This is how it may look from the surface.

True, bodies die, yet no body is the extent of anyone you love or anyone you have never even met or anyone that ever was in the history of the world. Everyone is Infinite and Eternal. Life never ever ends. So long as you may live applies only to so long as your body may live. Your body lives on Earth. In what is called death and in what is called life, you are anchored in the Land of Truth where there is no cease to life.

What You Need To Know About How Gut Bacteria Makes Us Fat & Thin

by Alexa Erickson, Collective-Evolution

Obesity is one of our most pressing health problems today, affecting millions worldwide. In America alone, 35 percent of adults battle with it daily.

The main causes are an unhealthy diet, a sedentary lifestyle, and genetics, but considering how many people are affected by this issue and how much strain it is placing on our already overburdened medical systems, researchers are desperate to find other avenues to treat it. And through their efforts, they have now discovered that our gut plays a crucial role in weight management.

New evidence suggests that gut bacteria alter the way we store fat, how we balance levels of glucose in the blood, and how we respond to hormones that make us feel hungry or full. If we have the wrong mix of microbes from birth, we may be predisposed to obesity and diabetes.

Thankfully, researchers are starting to find the differences between the wrong and the right ones, and what factors determine those differences. Their hope is that, with this knowledge, they can prevent and maybe even reverse obesity. We also need to learn how to keep our gut microbes happy in order to avoid weight gain. This begins with redesigning our food choices.

Ron Finley: How Urban Gardening Can Change Your Lifestyle

by Marc Angelo Coppola, Collective-Evolution

Ron Finley, the Urban Gardener, isn’t your ordinary gangster, which is well and good for a chat with Marc Angelo. The two share a powerful discussion of the difference between promoting a cause and taking action on it, and there are few people in the world more qualified to have that talk.

Ron’s moniker, the Guerrilla Garden Gangster, sprang up as naturally as the food-bearing plants he started producing in his urban gardens. Green stretch between the sidewalk and the street? Ron turned it into a garden. Tall, fruitless tree? Ron grafted in fruit-bearing branches to take advantage of the growth.

He explains that “soil is everything… it’s where life comes from,” and identifies that as the focal point of a strong community. What he saw in his own life was wasted space, food deserts caused by industrialization and strange policies which failed to take advantage of the actual space in an environment and the many opportunities for urban gardens.

Canceled TEDx Talk - Understanding Bias, Prejudice, & Diversity

TEDxRaleigh 2016, a regional TEDx event, canceled this talk about bias, prejudice, and diversity.

After initially being selected, this talk was canceled quite abruptly from TEDxRaleigh 2016 – a regional TEDx event in Raleigh, North Carolina.

The talk illustrates how we all learn and live through bias – but how we can better connect through understanding our diversity.

TEDx, founded as a platform for “ideas worth spreading,” rejected the completion of this talk after stating ‘it was not practical’ and ‘would not connect.’

But then a few in a committee are not allowing the public to decide what makes sense to them.

Even though the talk was pulled from the TEDxRaleigh event, it is such an important “idea worth spreading” especially as we’re navigating such divisive times.

Woman Refuses Conventional Treatment & Cures 4th Stage Cancer

by Arjun Walia, Collective-Evolution

Alternative cancer treatments are becoming increasingly popular as more and more people begin to question conventional treatments and seek out less harmful options. While many in the medical field claim this is dangerous and can cost lives, many patients know that the success rate of chemotherapy is quite low, and question whether the toll it takes on the body is worth the risk.

According to a 2004 report by Morgan, Ward, and Barton, the contribution of cytotoxic chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adult malignancies survival in adults was estimated to be 2.3 percent in Australia and 2.1 percent in the United States. It concluded that, “it is clear that cytotoxic chemotherapy only makes a minor contribution to cancer survival. To justify the continued funding and availability of drugs used in cytotoxic chemotherapy, a rigorous evaluation of the cost-effectiveness and impact on quality of life is urgently required.”

Daily Message ~ Friday June 3, 2016

Human beings consider those who can feel or connect with spirit to have extra sensory powers. But did you know from the vantage point of spirit those who are in the body are the ones with the extra sensory powers?

Your bodies are incredible tools to allow you to grow and evolve. They give you so much more feedback than you could ever experience if you were in spirit form. The act of eating, of crying, having a belly laugh, of petting an animal, of loving another, of getting goosebumps, of smelling something that gives you pleasure – all are experiences that are considered part of the wonder of being in the body.

The earth plane is the playland of your soul. It is how you get to experience separateness and then connection. It is how you get to experience what is not desired, followed then by what is, in a completely tangible way. It allows you to try many things, and to feel the preciousness of yourself and others. It allows you to experience your innocence, your courage, and your innate goodness, as you continue to know and define yourself.

So thank your bodies for all the opportunities they give you and take them out to play, for experience is their great gift to you. ~Archangel Gabriel

In the first place there is no need to believe in God. And if you believe you will never be able to know him. Belief will become a barrier; belief is always a barrier. Belief means you are carrying a prejudice, and you will not be able to see that which is. You will project your own idea.

That's why a Hindu, when he comes to a vision of God, will see Krishna with the flute.

He will never see Christ, he will never see Mahavira, he will never see Buddha. And the Christian? He has never seen Krishna or Buddha. And a Jew? He has his own ideas. So when you see, what you see is not really the real but your own projection, your own idea.

Remember: as long as you have even a single idea inside you, your experience is going to be distorted by it.

The Media Divides Us With Gorillas to Enable the Crimes of the Government

by Claire Bernish, The Anti-Media

By now, we’ve all witnessed selective outrage in real time — a misdeed, tragedy, or other infuriating item blows up national headlines and almost immediately receives backlash in the vein of, ‘well, why isn’t anyone irate about ___ ?’ It’s as if society has developed not only an odd hypocritical corner on the market of concern, but a notable inability to impassion itself with more than one issue at once.

Dichotomized moral outrage receives an altogether greedy leg up from corporate media. After all, networks understand all too acutely how tragedy drives opportunity — and what better way to cash in on casualty than by capitalizing on ethical wedges people invariably manufacture?

Cleaving division, in fact, comprises the bulk of propaganda. Intense bickering and debate saturate social media, both obfuscating other potentially significant happenings and setting the foundation for further division in the future. If personally invested in passionate disagreement over one issue, people’s resentments linger — prejudicing friends, colleagues, and associates against one another when an equally divisive topic or incident takes place in the future.
