Filtered Water – How to Protect Yourself From the Tap

tap water

Alex Pietrowski, Staff Writer
Waking Times

Many of us have grown up drinking tap water without thinking twice about it. The availability of potable drinking water is a cornerstone of developed countries. Many developing, or third-world, countries often provide inadequate access to drinkable water, and the water from the tap is frequently contaminated with pathogens, suspended solids, toxins and/or disease-carrying organisms. Unfortunately, the use of chemical agents used in developed countries to make water potable has started to raise concern throughout communities about the safety of seemingly innocuous tap water.

New Thoughts, New Beginnings: Day 81, Imix 3

NEW THOUGHTS, NEW BEGINNINGS    One of the laws of the universe is that like attracts like. If you are continually focused on being a victim and believe that everyone is out to get you or that you have bad luck, this is what you will attract to you. Your thoughts and things you pay attention to are what create your reality. In every situation, there will be people who see blessings and those who will focus on its curses. The good news is that each of you has the ability within yourself to transcend negative thinking. Once you gain control of your thoughts, you will then be able to release belief codes and change behaviors that have kept you locked into negative thinking.

Many of you are locked in suspension, not knowing which way to go. Those of you who are afraid to make the wrong choice, we suggest you go inward and allow yourself to experience what feels best at the time. Know that throughout your life you will be presented with multitudes of ideas. All have their credence and validity. Take for yourself that which feels right, try it on; if it doesn’t fit, try on something else.

Your life will be enhanced when your thoughts center on paying attention to the divinity within rather than on your differences with others. Life will be lived in a more loving manner when each of you sets aside your differences and learns to love one another.

True Gold

The only person you owe is yourself. You are obligated to yourself. This is not selfishness I advocate. Not at all, yet, nor are you to be at the beck and call of anyone who wants to claim you as their right.
 
When I say you are indebted to yourself, you have to remember that you do well to include in the many you wish to do good for the one you call yourself. You are not to overlook yourself. You are not to relegate yourself to the end of the line. Certainly, your life on Earth counts as much as anyone else’s life on Earth. You have rights and privileges. Nowhere do I mean that service to God means putting everyone’s needs before your own.
 
You personally cannot fill everyone’s needs. I can. You can’t.
 
Certainly, in one sense, you are servant to all the world. However, what service would you give to the world by putting everyone before you? You may choose to give up your life to save another. At the same time, you don’t have to. This is your choice. You are not obliged to give everyone what they may want at your own expense. You also have your life to live.
 
Remember that your service is to Me and on behalf of Me. Reserve some regard for yourself. You are not to consider yourself Selfless. You are also your own person. If you give all of yourself away, what is left of you?

Hakuin laughed and said, " You, a samurai? You look like a beggar."

The samurai's pride was hurt, his ego hammered. He forgot what he had come for. He took out his sword and was just about to kill Hakuin. He forgot that he had come to this master to ask where is the gate of heaven, to ask where is the gate of hell. Then Hakuin laughed and said, "This is the gate of hell. With this sword, this anger, this ego, here opens the gate." This is what a warrior can understand. Immediately he understood: This is the gate. He put his sword back in its sheath. And Hakuin said, "Here opens the gate of heaven."

Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell; when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.

Massive Protests in Mexico Against Government Corruption

“I hope that the government gets the message that its citizens are completely fed up with a government that cannot seem to provide even basic security for its citizens and is incapable of honoring basic human rights,” said Emma Obrador, a member of the rights group Association of Women Embracing Mexico.

Demonstrators flooded the streets of cities across Mexico on Thursday as tens of thousands of people called on the government of President Enrique Peña Nieto to return 43 missing students who disappeared two months ago after police opened fire on them in Guerrero state.

“The leadership here wants to paint a picture of Mexico as a stable country, but the reality is completely different,” said Hugo Silva, a student at the National Polytechnic School. “There’s the narcotrafficking and the violence, but you have to look at the situation at its roots. We all have a responsibility for this, but the primary responsibility for the situation belongs to the government.”

Indigenous Call for Urgent, Unprecedented and Unified Action for Protecting and Restoring the Sacred

By Hereditary Chief Phil Lane, Jr.

The spiritual foundation of this Call for Urgent, Unprecedented, and Unified Action is based in the understanding of the fundamental oneness and unity of all life. Clearly, as well, all members of the Human Family are all part of the Sacred Circle of Life. Since we are all part of the Sacred Circle of Life we are all Indigenous Peoples of our Mother Earth. This makes every Human Being responsible for the well-being of one another and for all living things upon our Mother Earth.

Therefore, whether or not the nation states, multinational corporations or international development agencies that surround us are willing or able to participate with us at this time, it is clear our Indigenous Peoples and Allies are moving forward in rebuilding and reunifying the Americas and beyond, through the Natural Laws and Guiding Principles that are inherent in our Indigenous World View and Legal Order rooted in an eternal and spiritual enduring foundation.

1. We have the ancient prophecies and the clear vision of a future of social justice and collective prosperity for the Americas and beyond that we are in the process of manifesting. This new global civilization that is unfolding, as promised by the Ancient Ones and the Ancient of Days, fully honors the Natural Laws and Rights of Mother Earth and the Unity and Diversity of Human Family. This New Spiritual Springtime foretold by our Elders is now unfolding globally, as surely as the sun rises every morning.

Waking Times

In essence, a spiritual awakening occurs each moment we make a choice. However, one day a grand opportunity for awakening occurs that will change the past, present, and the future. When the choice is made to advance beyond the old beliefs and patterns, triggers and clues emerge that are telltale signs of a spiritual awakening.

1. We Question Who We Are

One of the main things we begin to question in our spiritual awakening is who we really are. Through various teachings and information available in books and on the internet, we get clues to how to go within. By going within we realize that we are an infinite being having a physical experience in a human body.

Falling Down

It has happened just as it has before and probably will in the future; you have fallen, face-planted, took the big dive and now you are lying there wondering if it is possible for you to get up…..yet again.  Your wounded pride, skinned knees and, yes, even embarrassment may make you want to stay down and never move again.  Be aware, my beautiful child, of the fact that falling is a part of being human.  How else would you know that you are capable of getting up, dusting off and moving forward? As you learn, grow and change the moments of imbalance will become less and the experience you gain will be a guiding light for those that are moving through their own challenges.  As painful as the fall can be, The Universe is always there offering a hand up….just reach out and take it. ~ Creator

Q and A With A Higher Self Channel

will's picture

LaurenOctober2014Hello. My name is Lauren and I am a Higher Self channel.

Being a Higher Self channel was something that came into my life, probably as a bigger surprise to me than to any person reading this article. You’ll just have to trust me when I say that I had never heard of it or even imagined it, and that the first time I encountered someone doing it, I felt a mixture of fascination and extreme skepticism. The first time I channelled Andrea (my HS) for someone else, I was again fascinated, skeptical and also hugely resistant. The process of understanding and embracing this part of myself has been a fluid and flowing spiral that has taken years. I’m truly thankful to the special people I have met in my life who encouraged me, supported me and had a stronger understanding of the importance of accepting this part of myself than I did.

Though I talk about the concepts of Higher Self and HS channelling regularly with my private clients and students, it was not until recently that I sat down to try to verbalise the “who, what, how, and why”. I hope to be able to relate some of the understandings I have come to over the years, and possibly provide some clarification for those who are wondering just exactly what a Higher Self and a HS channel are.

What is a Higher Self?

A Higher Self is the higher dimensional aspect of you. We live in a multi-dimensional universe, and all of us are participating and interacting with multiple dimensions all the time. Our physical bodies are our third dimensional representation at a soul level. However, our souls are also expressing themselves and interacting with many other dimensions simultaneously. Some people, such as myself, have awareness of our multi-dimensionality and regularly interact with it. We all have that potential, depending on how much time and attention we want to give it.

Imagination, reality flow in opposite directions in the brain

As real as that daydream may seem, its path through your brain runs opposite reality.

Aiming to discern discrete neural circuits, researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have tracked electrical activity in the brains of people who alternately imagined scenes or watched videos.

"A really important problem in brain research is understanding how different parts of the brain are functionally connected. What areas are interacting? What is the direction of communication?" says Barry Van Veen, a UW-Madison professor of electrical and computer engineering. "We know that the brain does not function as a set of independent areas, but as a network of specialized areas that collaborate."

Scientific Proof That We Can Heal Ourselves

In this TEDtalk, Lissa Rankin explores the spiritual and scientific implications that the placebo effect has over us. She discusses how our thoughts powerfully affect our physiology when we believe we can get well.

The placebo effect is concrete evidence that the body has its own innate self repair system.

A study was conducted with 3500 participants who had all been diagnosed with an incurable disease like cancer, HIV, various heart diseases, etc. Through the placebo effect...

The power of Love has been finally recognized by large numbers of humans.

As you well know, God is Love, there is nothing else, and so you are all Love and God, you are One.  God is . . . no beginning, no end, whereas He created all of you as perfect beings, because all that He creates is by its very nature perfect, and He gave you everything that He had, All That Exists, Love.  By doing so He demonstrated infinite and eternal Love in action, and that is an eternally ongoing state or condition that never changes.  You all existed before what your scientists, astronomers, and astrophysicists presently describe as the “Big Bang,” the moment in which they believe the Universe came into being; other theories of its initial appearance are also being considered.  The truth remains that before the Big Bang, before the apparent separation from your Source, You are.

10 Signs You Have Found Your Soulmate

feature_image_template

“Your soul mate makes you feel entirely intact, like no piece is missing from the puzzle. A life partner, on the other hand, can be a great supporter and long-time companion, but is limited in his or her capacity to enrich your spirit.” ~ Dr. Carmen Harra

Soul Mates. Soul Reminders. Soul Connections.

We hear about it, read about it and some of us are lucky enough to experience it.

Soul mates differ from life partners. Some people, not ever encountering a soul mate or soul connection, settle down with a life partner. These relationships can be very satisfying. They are often built on mutual trust, respect and friendship.
