Know the world from end to end is a mirror;
in each atom a hundred suns are concealed.
If you pierce the heart of a single drop of water,
from it will flow a hundred clear oceans;
if you look intently at each speck of dust,
in it you will see a thousand beings.

-Mahmud Shabistari

A Secret Trade Agreement Could Place Major Restrictions On How We Use The Internet

Submitted by will on

As noted in Motherboard's past TPP coverage, Congress has the constitutional power to debate trade agreements. In the fast tracked TPP negotiations, Congress would be shut out, as would stakeholders and the individuals who actually helped build the internet's infrastructure. Diplomats, politicians, and select corporations would instead secretly settle on the language and regulations contained in the trade agreement. 

"You know that legislation is really, really bad when it's opposed by major tech companies as well as nearly every labor, environmental, and Internet freedom group in the country."

FBI Continues To Withhold Information On Occupy Assassination Plots

A U.S. District Court judge says the FBI’s reasons for withholding information on assassination plots against Occupy movement leaders in several U.S. cities aren’t good enough.

It was quietly reported last June that the FBI was aware that an organization — possibly a law enforcement agency — had plans to assassinate leaders of the Occupy movement, and the bureau did nothing about it. Now a U.S. District Court judge says the FBI has some explaining to do.

Not only did the FBI not intervene at all, but it didn’t even alert or notify the leaders of Occupy movements in several cities whose lives were threatened. Their inaction goes against the bureau’s practice of informing potential victims of violent threats made against them.

The public and Occupy leaders only learned about the assassination plans after documents containing the information were obtained by the human and civil rights advocacy group, Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Though the documents largely detailed how the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, U.S. military and private corporations had flagged Occupy Wall Street protesters as “domestic terrorists” and “criminals” in order to spy on them, there was one paragraph on page 61 that caught the group’s attention.

Breaking News: FDA’s Sneak Attempt to Ban Another B Vitamin

Note that the title of this article isn't entirely true. The FDA wants to no longer allow vitamin supplements to make a distinction on their labels between folate, a healthy and natural B vitamin, and folic acid, a mostly synthetic form and less healthy form.

Breaking News: FDA’s Sneak Attempt to Ban Another B VitaminAlliance for Natural Health, March 11, 2014
 
You can’t live without this vitamin. But the FDA wants to reserve the natural form for monopoly drug companies, leaving only the synthetic form for supplements. 

The FDA has just released a new 109-proposed rule on the revision of nutrition and supplement labels. (You can read more about the implications of the new labeling rules in our other article this week.)
 
On page 69, the agency slipped in two little paragraphs that could risk the health of millions of people who desperately need folate. It’s a sneak attack so quiet and unobtrusive that few people will even realize it’s there.
  
According to the guidance, the word “folate” will be banned from the Supplement Fact labels—only the term “folic acid” will be allowed.
 

CONNECT TO HIGHER REALMS - Mayan Messages

will's picture

Submitted by will on

Those wishing to elevate to new heights, we encourage you to set time aside each day and connect with your Higher Self for insight and guidance. Your Higher Self is that part of you that remains in the Spirit Realm while you have your human experience on Earth. The connection is simple, but entails that you get out of your left-brain logical thinking patterns.

When you make it a daily practice to go inside for guidance, you are less likely to be swayed from the Path you chose before incarnating into this Realm. In order to elevate yourself to a higher vibration, you must learn how to give and receive unconditional love.

These feelings elevate you into a higher frequency, one in which magic is easier to manifest. You truly feel like an eagle, floating in the clouds with no cares in the world. To get there takes effort, however.

DEAREST PARENTS: HEAL YOURSELVES- AND YOUR BELOVED CHILDREN- FROM THE "GENERATIONAL CYCLE OF PAIN"! - Brian Schulz

DEAR FRIENDS- If you are a parent with the best and most loving intentions- as I know and trust that you are- I urge you to awaken NOW and open your mind and heart to the loving and revolutionary truth I am about to share with you.

With infinite compassion and unshakeable courage free your mind to look within yourself - never in an attitude of guilt or self-blame but rather in the spirit of seeing the glorious light that heals- and recognize how you were tragically and undeservedly conditioned/wounded as a child.

And perhaps you will wake up and see how you have unknowingly and unintentionally been passing elements of that conditioning on to the ones you love more than life itself.....

Your beloved children.

If you do this you will be taking a heroic step in setting all of you- and the human family itself!- free from the darkness and unhappiness of the "generational cycle of pain".

You Can’t Solve Inside Problems With Outside Solutions - Not Just A Blonde

Submitted by will on

We each lead lives filled with problems. Many of the most painful ones are internal. We live our lives suffering from all kinds of these inner hurts including: insecurity, loneliness, anger, bitterness, resentment, fear, and sadness.

We do some crazy things to try and solve these inner problems! We drink, we shop, we eat, we work, we hide… all in an attempt to solve the pain of our problems. If we are anxious we may have a drink, if we are stressed we may grab some m&m’s, if we are lonely we may log on to Facebook, if we are feeling unattractive we may buy a new pair of shoes. These “solutions” however only offer us temporary relief!

We must stop looking for a solution to our inner turmoil and unhappiness outside ourselves but instead look within. These external solutions will never truly solve our problems or satisfy us. They distract us from the true source of a solution that lies within ourselves.

“If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.” ~  Peace Pilgrim

Oh my, oh my. How many of us can’t silence that chatterbox of ours, that goes on and on, and on about all kind of problems that we had, have or might have in the future? Of course, most of these problems will never happen, but what do we know? We repeat in our minds all kind of scenarios and we think of all kind of ways to get back to those people that made us suffer, all those people because of whom we can’t be happy and we can’t really live our life the way we’re supposed to, and this is just one example of crazy thinking. Of course this is insane but not everybody knows it.

“I can’t believe that he/she did that to me. I hate her/him so much. How dare he/she talk to me like that?! I will show her/him what I’m really capable of, I will make him/her feel sorry for everything he/she did to me… Maybe I should stop. Maybe I am not seeing things the way they really are. Am I crazy? Maybe I am. He/She told me so… I am not crazy. In fact, he/she is the crazy one…” Sounds familiar? People do this to themselves all the time, whether they want to admit it or not.

How to Spot an Unhealthy Relationship - Aligned Holistics

Submitted by will on

The theme for my clients this week has been letting go of toxic relationships. This got me thinking about my relationships, wondering "What makes a relationship healthy?" It can be challenging to spot the signs when you're in the midst of romantic dinners, handmade cards, and mind-blowing sex.

So, I took a look back at the shitty things I've done and had done to me to present you with these 5 Signs:

1. Giving to Give vs. Giving to Get

When we love, we give of ourselves without the expectation of return. We give out of compassion, empathy, and mutual respect. In an unhealthy relationship, giving is used as a tool to get something in return.

Overcoming Obstacles - Mayan Messages

will's picture

Submitted by will on

OVERCOMING OBSTACLES   One way to gracefully overcome obstacles is to prepare yourself before you stumble. Many of you stumble over the same rock several times and either are unaware of repeating this pattern or once aware, you decide to take measures so you will not stumble on the rock again. This is the difference between unconscious and conscious living. When you pay attention to what is happening around you, the life you live becomes more meaningful and magical.

Once you are consciously aware of the rock, you come up with solutions to avoid stumbling over it again. In your mind, you see yourself either stepping over the rock or around the rock. Perhaps you choose to move the rock to the side of the path. Maybe you choose to put a colorful flag or sign next to the rock to alert yourself the next time you walk the path. Perhaps you choose to paint the rock a bright color.

Whichever choice you make creates a different impact upon you and the rock. However, the result will be the same; you will break the pattern of stumbling over the rock. You may find that your first choice isn’t effective. Let’s say you chose to place a flag next to the rock, but the wind blew the flag over and you stumbled on the rock again. Simply choose another method until the pattern is broken.

THE STOP WORRYING EXERCISE! - Brian Schulz

Submitted by will on

DEAR FRIENDS- Let me begin with a radical and supremely hopeful point of view: There is NOTHING you need to worry about. Ever! There are simply challenges to face and creative solutions that are within you to discover.

Whether the steps you need to take are external (an improved way of handling a situation) or internal (a new attitude that frees you to let go and feel better) there is no need to fear. You can learn how to stay peaceful and always find your way to inner relief and outer progress.

We all know that worrying never solved a problem, and never makes us feel better. Worrying is a constant drain on our inner peace, physical energy and overall happiness. IT SIMPLY DOESN'T WORK!
