good article/link mozart!

i agree with you. the article beautifully speaks of the law of oneness...even though the author could not put a name to all the various social, environmental, and political movements and how they tie in with each other....and it is big.

it is amazing to me how much help is needed. this is reflected in my regular mail too...with about 10-25 letters a week asking for support! so many to help and so many that need to learn to help themselves as well.

people are waking up.

today i bought some soap, (as the good consumer - i am).
it is called "all one"; (i remember it from my childhood,
the peppermint variety is delightfully strong.)

maybe this is a real life example of the saying,

hey seth, glad to see you're still at it!

hawken is a marvelous thinker. his book the ecology of commerce completely changed my approach to political economy and environmentalism in general. he wrote a piece on the wto seattle "riots" that i also found very compelling.

i'm a little skeptical of anytime anybody talks about "remaking the world", as that is the talk of far too many authoritarians. but i recognize that he's talking about something totally different. let's make sure we keep this movement decentralized, leaderless, and spontaneous. no agendas!

skepticisms asside, i'd say there's a place in everyones life to be an authority of their own life, to promote positive change, to remake their world, to be examples of possibility, and to lead themselves with an agenda. this is not necessarily the easiest role, to approach life in this way, or the most peaceful, or even the most pleasant way, though in some circumstances it may be the fastest and most violent way to affect change and so contains some glint of legitimacy - speed and violence can be valuable. sometimes these approaches are contrast for other approaches with corresponding pros and cons. to each their own - we share our world. i'd say, lets make sure we grow more tolerant of different perspectives no matter how much of a jagged pill they may be for us to swallow. then we may be better able to accept and see that part of us which is reflected in some way and so grow to realize our greater wholeness.

i hear ya. i should say, i would prefer for it to be decentralized and spontaneous, because that tends to be the way in which everybody's contributions are most fully expressed and balanced. but it's gonna happen, one way or another - we're becoming more networked, more integrated in awareness, more consciously interconnected - and that can be pleasant, dangerous, or both simultaneously.

dear asc2k friends:

b: i am connecting the dots from the 4-14-07 meditation:

because this is not a physical alteration but a metaphysical alteration, there is no physical marker for the end of the time lateral. and indeed, this time lateral has been very successful compared to experiments in the past. the accumulation of awakening interest in altering the course of the vibration of planet earth has been late in starting but has rapidly spread and gained strength in all parts of your globe, in all peoples, cultures and places. your world is truly waking up.

b: to hawken's article:

after spending years researching this phenomenon, including creating with my colleagues a global database of these organizations, i have come to these conclusions: this is the largest social movement in all of history, no one knows its scope, and how it functions is more mysterious than what meets the eye.

what does meet the eye is compelling: tens of millions of ordinary and not-so-ordinary people willing to confront despair, power, and incalculable odds in order to restore some semblance of grace, justice, and beauty to this world.

b: isn't this a wonderful confirmation?!

healing love,
bev

it may be that the spread of technology (i.e. cell phones and emails) has allowed people to interconnect in ways they haven't been able to in the past. the simple acts of communication can give a sense people are closer to each other than their physical separations suggest, whatever they seem to be. these technologies may accelerate people's psychic developement - if say they act upon their intuitions and say validate them with acts of communication. in this way intuitions grow affirmed as validated and with that come higher degrees of trust in intuition which can grow in influence, i.e. less likely to be discounted by rational/logical thought constructs.

hey "o.m." folks,


check this amazing article from paul hawken, a noted social activist/entrepreneur, that indicates the depth and breadth of what i see as the oneness movement ("o.m.")...


http://www.orionmagazine.org/index.p...es/article/265


...that is far larger and widespread than any of us people on earth have yet to imagine. it is big!


to me hawken's article is describing how widespread the deeply-personal sense/orientation of the inherent oneness that exists in all life, from the smallest bacterial organisms, to the largest life-forms that exist on our beleaguered planet.


many may not look at it as "oneness" and there is no one-single name/phrase that captures the entirety of this widespread nature of this kind of people world-wide, but, i think that if you look at is from the law of one perspective, there's the inherent thread of the one manifest in many forms and thought-forms.


wow.


to me oneness is a self-evident truth that is--and has been for decades--being acted upon by many millions of people world-wide. as hawken points out, this "movement" dwarfs any sort of movement in world history, so something big is afoot here.


be the ripples of change that you wish to see in the world. and you know what happens when there's a lot of ripples from each of us--like many small stones thrown into a pond?--you get the cross-interference patterns that add up to a hologram of our intentions. what do you want to see in our world? just shine it. be it. feel it.


and that world of peace will start to show up, thought-by-thought, pixel-by-pixel, pattern-by-pattern, life-by-life and one by one.

i'm just coming off the thread containing talk of jeff green's pluto - he suggests in those books that people with natal pluto in twelfth house have a subconscious drive compelling them to seek a sense of oneness. here's a quote from his book, pluto evolutionary journey f the soul "llewellyn 2003 isbn#0-87542-296-9, page 215

individuals who have pluto in the twelfth house or pisces have had the prior evolutionary intent or desire to align themselves with some type of transcendental belif system in order to realize the unity of alll of creation, and to see or experience their own individuality as an extension of the source of creation. in so doing they can spiritualize all aspects of their lives.
