Monsanto {Documentary}

Intro:
There is much that could be said about this, but I will let you watch the video for yourself.
Its quite long, so pull back a chair, get something to drink and munch on and relax.

If you find it a bit dry at first it will pick up toward the end when they start talking about India & Mexicos corn, etc. The first part gives you more of a background into the company itself.

When you watch the bit about the Mexican corn and how N.A.F.T.A. affects this, (well with Monsanto, of course), you will be surprised.

Mexico & India:
In fact put that info with the fact that in India they (farmers) have to buy cotton seed basically from only Monsanto - as Monsanto has bought up most, if not all, of the major seed suppliers to farmers - not only do they have to buy this seed that grows with pesticide genetically engineered into it…(Im not against science or genetic engineering, but chemicals, pesticides in the plant? Science is a tool only…neither good nor bad. It is only that which the hand that wield it cause it to be. And in my view point, Monsanto is on the ‘bad’ path. My thought would be to understand nature & its benefits fully before trying to play god with plants turning colors…potatoes…and plants having pesticides in them…cotton…etc.)

Control: Ownership of the worlds food supply
So as you see, the problem isnt only with what they are selling, but they are owning nature.
You buy their seeds, you cannot collect it for planting for the next year. (This is tradition.) And they are ruthless if they think that you kept the seed for next years harvest. - Again, not that I would ever want to have their seed in my field…fact is many dont, and organic farmers have either come close to, or have been shut down by Monsanto because of these ‘false flags’ saying the organic farmer had Monsantos patented seed on their farm lots. What? Monsanto is the reason they went organic.

Revelations:
Ah, where was I?
Anyway, as you watch this video think of Revelations where it says no one “will buy or sell without the mark…” - well, make that “no one will buy or sell except Monsantos seeds”.

This whole fear/greed based mentality needs to come to a halt. It is self-destructive and companies like Monsanto is driving society into a mess. Well, they would like to think into their hands so that they control all that happens and thus retain power. But I see differently, people are waking up to a lot of the non-sense in the world and that type of fear/greed based mentalities time is up.

So without further ado, here is the link:

OCD WARNING:

Warning:
There are individuals out there who are interested in mixing herbal medicine with their synthetics. - Do not do it.

Herbs and synths do not mix. Period.

There have been deaths due to people mixing natural herbal medicine with synthetics and/or alcohol. Of course the herb gets the raw end of the deal and is either banned or severely restricted.

i.e. -
1) Ephedra (everything needs to be examined with deaths attributed to Ephedra)
2) Psilocybin mushrooms (the talk in the Dutch government over whether or not to ban them as it was blamed for a girl killing herself. But she drank alcohol with it, and the two do not mix. Also, as with any medicine, herbs have their time and purpose.)
3) Kava Kava (Blamed on liver failure when it appears that companies wanting to get on the kava band wagon were eager to ship parts of the herb to customers that even the islanders didnt use.)

Here is the point.
Chinese have used Ephedra for ages without issues it seems…but now its a problem?
This is called ‘lobbying’ by drug and food manufactures that dont like natural competition.

i.e. Uncovering some interesting facts
1) Stevia - It has 0 calories, stronger/sweeter than sugar, yet cant be put in the sweetener isle for fear by certain companies that it would hurt their sales. (when these *unnamed* companies product have been shown to cause cancer. Interesting isnt it. Not really, the whole food market is messed up - at least Whole Foods is kind of getting it right.

(I dont want to get started with why people are obese from eating just a little bit of food from the unhealthy fast food chains. Needless to say, there is some serious crap in there that no amount of exercise will take off the weight. You will have to change your diet, and I am testimony to this as I have posted elsewhere in this blog. People couldnt believe that by changing what I ate, not how much I ate, helped me to loose the weight…fast.)

Other Examples
THC is another product that they are synthesizing for medicinal usages as it wouldnt be good for business if it was legalized all of a sudden.

The fact is, the whole food and drug industry is skewed & screwed.
These are some random pointers, above, to show you that things are a bit off balance.

Conclusion
This is an article that is easy to go off on a rabbit trail.
Each thing/subject touches upon the other.

I have to say again, if you want natural healing, then stay natural…but do not mix crap.
This includes diet.
All of the products with “e’s” followed by a number(s) as an ingredient…this wanst meant for human consumption…period.

Peace

Rid Yourself of the Ayin HaRa {Practical Christian Knowledge}

99% of all people die from the Evil Eye, or so it seems.
What of the other 1%? Who knows and speculation is futile from one point of view, and I dont plan to cover that here.

The concept of the Ayin HaRa {Evil Eye} is not foreign to Christianity - its throughout the O.T. & N.T. Its just the terminology may be foreign to you as presented here, though for many Orthodox Jews, its is well understood.

Whats less understood is how to go beyond the superstitions of how to removed the affects of the evil eye. Since I probably have a Christian audience I will try to use different terminology now that may filter better through your grid system.

Many Christians in the pentecostal & especially Charismatic realms will be familiar with the idea of possession. This concept in and of itself is not understood in a way that would really benefit those who believe in such things, but again that is a different topic as well.

But think of this. For those charismatics out there, you are familiar with the idea of a curse. Here you go, thats the evil eye in basic terms. How do you get rid of it? Well in certain terms you can only be cursed if you believe you can be. (Faith, that is what we are taught to have, but dont know what it is we are to believe, or how it practically affects and protects us.)

See, lets go a bit deeper into the concept of the evil eye killing 99% of people.
In a sense, this is what opens up for disease in the body which kills us off.
So in short that 1% could be those who are the eternal, that death did not touch (Elijah, Enoch, etc) or it could be they are the few lucky ones to enjoy a full healthy life up to the day they die without the negative side affects of aging that we take as a part of life because its so common.

How do we allow these curses? Its because we believe it happens. Well, its a bit more like this. You curse yourself for sure, as mentioned, but here is how.

Do you remember a time when someone burnt with angst against you and after 11 years you know that they still have kept alive the story of hatred about something which happened (whether really or perceived in their head) years ago.

Depending on your state of mind and how you handle day to day life, I bet that you have yet to relinquish bitterness, hate, jealousy, etc. It may be that it does not show, or your problem is “not like theirs”, but it allows an opening in your life for such curses to hold sway that you long forgot about.

When you have memories of certain people, no matter how long ago, how do you react?
Sure you say you got past, but do you still identify with the person who was their (you) when this happened? Or do you see it as separate and a experience that happened in a present moment that no longer exist?

What Im talking about is simple, though the way Im presenting it may not be as simple sounding. I can only apologize for that, but those who need to know/understand will.

Im talking about forgiveness. True forgiveness.
This is essential to the Christian life, but I will say this is the one thing that we do not practice, we do not do. We may feel and think that we do, but truth is we are not really aware of what forgiveness is. Its a concept, and that is it. Our lives show differently.

We hold labels and judgements all the time. Never letting go and never accepting.
Anti-gay, Anti-democrat, Anti-muslim, Anti-Anti…do you see where Im going.

“But that means I accept what they do, and I just cant…its evil!”
Ah, but thats also not forgiveness and remember you are not the judge.

“But God said we will know by their fruits”
True, and have you smelled yours recently? Does it align with what we were just saying?
Are you living a life of acceptance? love holds no wrong says Paul, Jesus never used an Aikido lock to get someone to stop ’sinning’ nor even gave them a time frame. He did not see the sinner but the person.

What does that mean? Not what you think. It means he did not identify a person with what they did. Most Christians say you are defined by your actions. This is the mistake. Sounds nice, sounds righteous, but “the path to hell is paved with good intentions.”

You dont see gay people. People arent gay.
They may even identify with the role people cast upon them - {but in the present moment, the only moment we have and what God sees…God said “I Am” not “I was” or “I will be”…} - but they are not that role. They stay stuck because of the lack of acceptance.

Ever thought of that? Why someone cant stop drinking, or give up an addiction to sex, they are identified with their actions, and most Christians are good at playing the jailer and keeping them there.

Paul is rolling over in his grave with such distorted thoughts and actions from the Christians of today. “Do they STILL not get it?” Sorry Paul, I think the apes are a bit smarter. Oh, please people - dont humiliate the apes and say we evolved from them, they deserve better.

So here we go. You want to live forever? Not on this earth.
Well how about living a life without the negative side affects that are hidden away in nursing homes? Sound good, you bet it does.

But are you willing to pay the price? you have to let go of your hate.
No one can curse you unless you curse yourself. You curse yourself and everyones curse will fall on you.

This is a pretty deep subject and I dont even know how many Christians got past the words “Evil Eye” - “Dont need none of that Kabbalisic Satanic mumbo jumbo.” Ah, is that so. What is it that you know about the subject? Do you disagree with what I said? Well, I should say with what Jesus taught as its his words.

Of course many of you disagree thats why you have the thoughts you have. Nothing I can say can change that, but more than likely, if you made it this far, you feel what Im saying.
Its not from me, (the jumbling of words is), but the message is something in all of us.

I have been ‘ill’ since high school. Something that cant really be pin-pointed, but I dont really let the dr.s dig around. I bet and know it is the Ayin HaRa.

Sounds so mystical when putting it that way, but truth is I know that my actions and the stress I put upon myself took a toll on my body at a young age. But the body is a blessing as it is resilient and tries to give us chance after chance to learn this basic lesson.

How do I know. Well as I have begin to loosen up and forgive, I see a change…physically, but more importantly emotionally. (The two are connected.)

I was motivated to write this article after reading part 10 in a series on the Occult by a Rabbi I have studied from for years now. (Koshertorah.com) Again, his material may make sense to you, and it may be way away from you.

Words are pointers, and we get so lost in them. Time for us all to loosen up a little.
Life is short and then we realize we never lived.

Quotable Quotes

“…still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.” - Simon & Garfunkel

You are in a Matrix (you are not you)

This was originally going to be a reply to someone about the use of DMT in religion.
Its a post I made at an alternative topic website back in October of 2006.
If you want you can follow the thread here

—–

I stated there, as I will here, that I have not experimented with any illegal drugs…
(the discussion in the other thread was concerning DMT and how it is also found naturally in the brain as well as in plants, but I will leave that topic for the other forum, except to say that my experience seemed to be a “natural” DMT experience produced by my own body)

not your normal experience…I can promise you this. I will repeat the story briefly.

I had been doing a lot of meditation while listening to Eckhart Tolle.
The lights were off, it was night time, and I was FULLY AWARE and AWAKE (this is not lucid dreaming) I laid on the floor, closed my eyes for literally a few seconds, and then I found myself looking at the plant on the desk beside me. (I was on the floor and instantly up, in other words I “projected” as it were, myself from the laying down postion to upright.)
I observed the plant and desk as it was interesting how I could see it in detail while laying down…my ability to imagine things, let alone in detail, are not grand at all.
So then I turned to walk toward the door, and before getting to the door I stopped. (This is not lucid, again, it was not a tired, shut my eyes and doze off scene…all my senses were there, but I was on the floor and off of it… anyway) At the door, I decided to stop (something happened, which I will not say as its for me to ponder to help me figure out what happened.)
But after the something happened I decided to “lay back down” I did NOT lay down, I decided, and I felt myself from feet away all of a sudden “sucked back” I was on the floor without going back by walking. Now at this point something wierd happened, which is harder to explain.
All my feelings before this happened and while it happened, were the same consistent, no breaks, as if it all happened in this realm of reality without sleeping, etc.
But now, there was a break…the whole reality of me left…period…I was “drawn” (bad description, but hey it works) or pulled up to something that was beyond me, but yet a thread of something (fear, I admit), a needle worth, pulled me back and then I was aware of DAlen again.
It was so brief, but I realized an apparent truth as it reltates to the experience…that the reality I was in was just one version of any multiple realities that I so chose…but not I…for this reality was as fake as the rest. The only thing that separated it was that “I” or the person “higher than me” chose to play this role more. I dont know who this I is, but I know that who you would see typing this and also the thoughts of my mind, is not the real “me” as I became aware of in this experience. (Can be quite humbling to realize that our mind is tricking us to make this huge ego.
Brings up another concept about death. Everyone is so attached to who they are that they make up religions to make sure they continue to exist as who they are.)

Then I opened my eyes.
This took me by surprise. Had I known it would happen, I would have thought, “o.k. tell my wife to observe me to see what she sees…can she see this, is she affected by this “reality”, or for her would it appear it took place soley in my mind, etc.

Since then I have been ever so curious to repeat it…Alas, time has passed, and no experience.

Dutch Plan to Build Tulip Shaped Island

clipped from blog.wired.com Executing on a Parliamentary commission, a Dutch agency has put together a plan to build a 247,000 acre island off the coast of their country in the shape of a tulip. The project would follow in the dubious tradition of Dubai’s The Palm and The World island building schemes.

By the way, the poster of the article seems to be concerned that this will damage the environment. As many of the comments below the authors article pointed out: No it wont damage the environment - or lets just say nature destroys itself or is constantly changing and reforming. How is this any worse? Perhaps we should go green first with our cars and all start walking before we complain about an island being built.
