Study hints that ancient Earth made its own water

A new study is helping to answer a longstanding question that has recently moved to the forefront of earth science: Did our planet make its own water through geologic processes, or did water come to us via icy comets from the far reaches of the solar system?

The answer is likely “both,” according to researchers at The Ohio State University - and the same amount of water that currently fills the Pacific Ocean could be buried deep inside the planet right now.

At the American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting on Wednesday, December 17, they report the discovery of a previously unknown geochemical pathway by which the Earth can sequester water in its interior for billions of years and still release small amounts to the surface via plate tectonics, feeding our oceans from within.

In trying to understand the formation of the early Earth, some researchers have suggested that the planet was dry and inhospitable to life until icy comets pelted the earth and deposited water on the surface.

What is Your Value?

In today’s world, it is not practical to live a spiritual, or aware, life.

Life is based on our productivity, not our value, as a living being.

It is also not necessary to be aware and poor.

Time is needed to detox from mass consciousness and find our way. Until we know ourselves, we have little to offer others that will touch them and help them understand their life.

It may be necessary to back off from the rat race we have created for ourselves. Bravery is the courage to accept what life offers, without complaint, and to silently surrender.

Namaste.
Robert and CJ

Christian Group Hopes To Lure Hungry Souls To Jesus By Building McDonald’s Inside Church

Source: www.foodbeast.com | Original Post Date: December 2, 2014 –

christian-group-hopes-to-lure-hungry-souls-to-jesus-by-building-mcdonalds-inside-church

A religious group in New Jersey is willing to do anything to save the faith, including constructing a fully functional McDonald’s inside a church. Because nothing says Jesus like biting into a saucy Big Mac.

They’re calling it the McMass Project.

Created by Paul Di Lucca, creative director of the church branding agency Lux Dei Design, the McMass Project is the messiah to this generation’s apathetic churchgoers. Through a crowdfunding site, the multi-denominational group hopes to raise $1 million to build a church with a McDonald’s franchise inside.

Hologramic Universe: Day 118, Etznab 1

HOLOGRAMIC UNIVERSE  You are part of the original Source of pure love, light and energy. One way to imagine this is to visualize the original Source as the sun. There came a time when Source chose to allow itself to fragment in order to experience something other than its full perfect Essence. In that moment, Source fragmented itself, knowing it had full power at any moment to recall those fragments and reconfigure itself into wholeness again. Imagine these fragments as candles or flames, each a part of the whole sun.

You came from one of those initial fragments. Each of these fragments retained the entire memory and essence of the Source, much like a hologram. Each one of these fragments made various choices of what it wanted to experience.

Through time, each of the fragments had the ability to step down another notch from Source. Every level, down to the you that is now reading this script, has always retained its full scope of love, light and energy. Every one of you is the original Source, not a separated part, such as when you cut a cake into parts, but a hologramic part in which the entire essence of the Source is a part of you.

What this means is that each of you is Source or God. This does not mean that in this moment you are of the purest light imbued with all the capabilities of Source, such as omniscience, omnipresence and perfect love. In one sense, you do have these capabilities within you, but they have been locked up and not accessible due to your agreement to uphold the contract of the universe you live in.

Through You, God Is Known

You are My Goodness. Through you am I realized. You are My Ambassador of Good Will. It is through you and all My beautiful creatures that I am known. I am discovered through you. You are My adman. You promote and advertise Me. It is to you that I have entrusted the world. It is for you to keep the world afloat – much more than afloat. It is you who enriches lives on Earth. Through you, am I announced.

Even when you might forget Me and Our place in the world together, even when you may feel half-hearted about life, even then you point people to Me, the Source of All. Even in what you perceive as need, you point to Me. Souls on Earth can also look to where you are not pointing, and also be clued in to you.

There is no difficulty on Earth that does not have an answer. The thing is that the answer may not be the one you are looking for. Not always can you, My children, pick out your most desired answer. You may want a blue sky today, and yet the sky is gray. Gray skies aren’t all bad, you know. You can release your demands.

Gratitude wins the day! Is there a holiday called All Hearts’ Day? Every day is meant to be.

Go on discovering love within you. And if you love, sooner or later the person will happen to you, because a loving heart, sooner or later, comes to a loving heart -- it always happens. You will find the right person. But if you are jealous you will not find, if you are simply for sex you will not find, if you live only for security you will not find. Love is a dangerous path and only those who have courage can travel it. And I say to you it is the same, just like meditation -- only for those who are courageous.

Achieving Your Goals Without the Struggle of Self-Discipline

This is a guest article from Amita Patel: www.alignedholistics.com 

When I meet new people, I usually get asked one (or more) of the following:

1. How do I pronounce/spell your name?

2. What caste are you?

3. How is what you do different than a therapist?

The first two questions annoy me, while the third gives me an opportunity to talk about my 2nd favorite topic (the first being my dog, Ollie, of course!)

So here it goes: One of the (many) differences between “traditional” therapists and the work I do is that I come from a strengths-based perspective. That means that sessions are less about you bitching about what’s not working, why life sucks, and why everyone else is to blame. Partly because that’s a downer and I don’t want to hear it, but more than that, it’s because that isn’t going to fix shit.

Not surprisingly, in a strengths-based approach we discuss…wait for it…your strengths!

Ok, that wasn’t much of a surprise.

What is a surprise though is how difficult this conversation is for most people...

How to Connect More Deeply With Your Authentic Self

HJ: To be deeply loved and accepted for who we are is everyone’s most deeply held desire and yet it so rarely happens in this life… at least from other people.  But by more deeply connecting with your authentic self, you can create that love and acceptance from within, which is the only place you can ever count on it to arise.  True, some of us may be lucky enough to experience unconditional love and acceptance from other people, but if we don’t feel it towards ourselves, then we ultimately cannot accept it fully as it is given.

This article is about learning to accept yourself and your life experience deeply and completely, for this is one of the fastest paths to experience profound, lasting happiness, fulfillment, joy and self-love in your life.

A Power-Packed Guide to Motivation: How to Motivate Yourself to Take Positive Action

motivated-man

Wikipedia describes motivation as:

a theoretical construct, used to explain behavior. It is the scientific word used to represent the reasons for our actions, our desires, our needs, etc.

Like an old steam locomotive that requires a train driver to toss coal into its boiler, motivation is the very fuel that spurs us to action. It’s a bit illusive though. Motivation isn’t itself any specific thing. Everything we do in every minute of every day is motivated by something. And that something can be anything

For the most part, we’re not concerned with motivation. We don’t usually question what makes us want to eat Cheerios vs. Raisin Bran in the morning or what makes us want to be Batman vs. Superman for Halloween. But when it comes to things that affect our greater well-being we become extremely interested in motivation and how to affect it.

WHAT? Oregon Man Serving Jail Time For Catching Rain Water

rain-water

Even if it falls from the sky, you’re not allowed to have it. Gary Harrington, a man from Medford Oregon, is learning that lesson well, serving out a 30 day prison sentence for collecting rainwater on his property. He was also slapped with a $1500 fine for diverting snow runoff and rainwater into reservoirs on his land. This action violates what some say is an antiquated law.

Harrington built the reservoirs, which hold around 13 million gallons of water, for personal use. It’s not all personal though; when wildfires hit the area, he opens up his reservoir for fire mitigation purposes. In his mind, it’s perfectly acceptable for him to collect water on his property.

Outrage: Teen Student Punished For Feeding His Hungry Friend

An eighth grade boy from Weaverville, California was given a detention for sharing his lunch with another classmate and friend. 13 year-old Kyle Bradford decided to share his chicken burrito with his friend who wasn’t very fond of the cheese sandwich the cafeteria server him. Kyle didn’t see any problem in sharing his food with the other student, I mean, who would? My friends and I always shared food when I was a kid. Here’s what Kyle had to say about it:

“It seemed like he couldn’t get a normal lunch, so I just wanted to give mine to him because I wasn’t really that hungry… It was just going to go in the garbage if I didn’t eat it.”

The Northern California school district has rules against sharing food in order to prevent issues with allergies among students. The Superintendent of The Trinity Alps Unified School District, Tom Barnett, spoke with KRCR-TV and told them that hygiene issues are also a concern when it comes to preventing students from sharing their food.

The Symbol Of The Swastika And Its 12,000-Year-Old History

Source: www.ancient-origins.net | Original Post Date: February 6, 2014 –

The swastika is a symbol used by of one of the most hated men on Earth, a symbol that represents the slaughter of millions of people and one of the most destructive wars on Earth.  But Adolf Hitler was not the first to use this symbol. In fact, it was used as a powerful symbol thousands of years before him, across many cultures and continents.

For the Hindus and Buddhists in India and other Asian countries, the swastika was an important symbol for many thousands of years and, to this day, the symbol can still be seen in abundance – on temples, buses, taxis, and on the cover of books. It was also used in Ancient Greece and can be found in the remains of the ancient city of Troy, which existed 4,000 years ago. The ancient Druids and the Celts also used the symbol, reflected in many artefacts that have been discovered...

35 Must-Read Spiritual Books You’ve Never Heard Of

Kind of silly to make the "never heard of" claim when you've got NYT best-sellers on the list, but it's still an excellent list of books, many of which I can personally recommend.

35-must-read-spiritual-books-youve-never-heard-of

You might have had an experience many of us share: We get an idea, a thought or even a dream with a theme that truly inspires us, stretches our minds or opens us up to a greater understanding ourselves and our lives.

And, like magic, within a day or so, we find a book which not only confirms our thoughts and feelings, but goes deeper into the very idea we had than we even did. How cool is it the Universe works with such magic & synchronciticy?

Many of us have also experienced that moment where we find the perfect book at the right time, and it exactly addresses what we’ve been thinking about, wanting to learn more of or a story whose themes directly relates our current lives and experiences. I’ve decided to compile a list of 35-very special books which have fit this description for thousands if not millions of people...
