Hope’s Dissertation.. Herculean Hope: Paul Beckwith: “..People ask, in face of doom and gloom of this time do you have hope? How do you maintain hope and keep from getting in to despair, or just basically shutting off ? Answer: Having hope for action is a mug’s game ( A mug is a fool, one easily duped.) when the challenge for change has not been met, even for years. If you have hope and your hopes are continually dashed it is very hard on your psyche or to maintain a balance to function and so on, do I have hope? I have always been hopeful but it is the wrong question. I may not have a lot of hope but it is not a hopeless situation, it is ‘not all or nothing’. There is lots of things we can do as individuals to try to get change from the power structures, from governments, from politicians, leaders, from people. Everything seems going the wrong way right now though there are glimmers, of that word, hope. Have hope or hopeless? The better way to think about it is having passion, you try to make a difference in your life. Do what you can to use the skills that you have to try to get change. A lot of people can feel guilty or try to make you feel guilty, that misses the point; it is not your fault. We can always try to effect change. Things are bad and spiralling continuing, going in the wrong direction, one thing is in the three legged bar stool (analogy).. See the Emergency, step one is agree there is an emergency, then two,what do we do(?) and then (3) change (action).” (.. transcription edited for clarity)

Dealing with abrupt climate change “With a basic knowledge of your brain, you can use your Mind to change your Brain to change your Mind. Neurons that Fire together Wire together, according to neuroscientist Hanson. Using an easy method (acronym HEAL) Hanson explains “taking in the good” to build inner strengths into people’s psyches. This is NOT “positive thinking” which is problematic; but it is a quick way to enrich and install positive experiences and rewire brain circuits (create synapses, overwrite others, create new neural pathways) to build up inner strengths. ‘HEAL’, remember the acronym HEAL: Have a positive experience, Enrich it in your mind, Absorb it feel like it is permeating your soul and then link it to negative thoughts.

Most scientists say this is irreversible and there is nothing we can do about it, and some go so far as to say that if there is a tree with a leaf left on the planet in six years then they will be amazed. This is how dire the assessment is. The assessment actually leads them to that deduction." "In sharing this with people some people leave the lecture something like zombies, some start crying, some uncontrollably. So, it is not for the light of heart. Although the scientists, most of them say this irreversible, there is nothing we can do about it. But instead of going there first with the climate science, I would like to empower you first because I believe that our community with its deep consciousness roots and its knowledge about the importance of collective consciousness has the ability to do something profound about this, more than any other community with the exception of other little groups of people who have learned to use transcendence as a means of developing their own consciousness. And, there are plenty of those around the world. Not trying to minimize them but thinking in our awareness this is the largest community that exists on the planet. A conveyance here is that Maharishi left us with some bread crumbs through time. He worked with many many people and as many of us know he worked around the clock. Nobody got to know everything he was doing but lots of people got very intimate with him on certain projects. In sharing this information on climate change with people on Mother Divine, Purusha programs or maybe a special project on Vastu housing or some other project he was working on, they all heard him say something about this transition coming up. What he said most of all was that the severity and length of time that it will take to go through this transition, from ‘object referral’ to ‘heaven on earth’ would depend on what the meditating groups did that were left on the planet. He also said that less than 20 percent of the people that were alive when the transition started would be alive at the end. That is pretty grim. But, he also told people on the Mother Divine program that what was going to happen was going to be so challenging and horrific that he did not want to even put his attention on it and would not discuss it at all. We have discovered pieces and wish to share these with the community, the little nuggets of information that Maharishi has talked about will surface and come together in maybe a set of instructions, last minute things that he planted in the group and see if we can work together as a team ... Maharishi planted the seed that we can make a difference, that we always have consciousness as the most powerful tool, and the more of us that come together and meditate in to that silence the more powerful this tool is. That is the message to leave you with .. (that we were left with. ) The rest you will find in your heart and you will also find Maharishi’s message, we have the ability individually, individual by individual, and as a collective to do what no scientist on earth believes is possible. Jai Guru Dev QED Lecture postscripts, Meditating In Numbers in Proximity .. "The thing that we can bring in to the mix is our silent value in transcending. During the IAmerican Assembly MMY said that when things get really bad on the planet Brahma awakens. Where does Brahm awaken? Brahm does not awaken in Brahma heaven somewhere, Brahm awakens in the people on earth in our own consciousness we are Brahma that has to awaken. And Brahma awakens and that awaken-ness in us comes forth and evolves our consciousness until we overturn the destructive force in nature intentionally. Maharishi talked about 'we', the individuals that we think we are, are really one Brahmin connection. We have to awaken to the fact that our other aspects of consciousness are destroying all the other unique and beautiful aspects of Brahma. When we destroy complex life on this planet there will be nothing but bacteria left. Do we leave that inheritance for the rest of eternity?" Meditating In Numbers, in Proximity "We have the ability to raise humankind to its heavenly divinity to command the laws of nature. We need this pressure. This is not something by mistake. This is something that is happening naturally that brings us to the point where we will take ownership and become brahm in Devine and take charge of nature in life. That is what we are doing in graduating from heaven. Wake up to it. Come and take your power because we have just years left to make that transition and we make it better when we are in groups because there is a collectivity involved. People individually talk themselves out of it. But when this is shown to groups of ten or more everyone gets it. They leave with the knowledge of ‘wow. I could be instrumental’, I am going to graduate in Nature. In life I have been in heaven training and now it is time to get to ownership and get to the point of doing something about it. This is a very very special time. It is the end of the illusion of separation from Nature. That is all we are trying to show you. This is a glorious event, nothing to be fearful about. But those aspects of consciousness not prepared to wake up will not be around for very long. Let us not be some of them. Our hearts lead us on the path to be in the graduating class in Nature. That is how we got here." -Ryan and Stan Current: Patterns of Arctic Sea-Ice Loss: Melt versus Export https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExDVultlDuI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExDVultlDuI Jai Guru Dev. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> wrote : In Consciousness Community: To paraphrase, borrowing from.. -Lyman Beecher "This now is the beginning of the great promises and mandates upon Iowa as a state. If this nation is, in the providence of the Unified Field, destined to lead the way in moral and political emancipation of the world; it is time she understood her high calling, and was harnessed for the work. First one had to recognize that it is equally plain that the spiritual and political destiny of our nation is to be decided in the West and hinges on Iowa. There is the territory, and there will soon be the meditating population, the wealth, and the political power. Whatever we do, it must be done quickly; for there is a tide in human things which waits not -- moments on which the destiny of a nation balances, when the light dust may turn the right way or the wrong. And such is the condition of our nation now. Mighty influences are bearing on us and a slight effort now may secure what ages of repentance cannot remove away. We must reveal the Kingdom, the Unified Field in large Nature to the whole nation while we may. All who are alive must be enlightened, and reached by the restraining and preserving energies of heaven.” -Lyman Beecher This is the beginning of the great promises and mandates upon Iowa as a state. Jai Guru Dev "Duty-bound" "In welcoming the saints and Mahatmas, Maharishi said that the world today needed the intercession of the saints who are established n themselves and are therefore, nearer to the almighty power. The situation of the world now demanded of the people a powerful invocation of the grace of gods to fill the atmosphere with peace and purity. This, he said, can be effectively done by those who by long practice of meditation and various spiritual disciplines, had gained the privilege of being nearer to the seat of divine power and mercy. The saints of Uttarakhand therefore were in duty-bound to intercede on behalf of the people and invoke the grace of gods to alleviate human suffering." "..After Maharishi had stressed the importance and purpose of the assembly of the Saints and Mahatmas.. Then the party entered the 84 caves of Shakaracharya Nagar, where collective meditation was held for one hour. So soon as everyone had taken their seats in the caves, the meditation started with a recitation of Vedic hymns, and as everyone sank deep within, nature herself was absorbed in silence. There was utter stillness for one solid hour, at the end of which, the meditation was broken by a recitation of vedic slokas. The saints who are accustomed to long meditation felt the powerful intensity of today's collective meditation. It was decided to continue collective meditation regularly every Sunday until atmospheric tension abates." -1965 .. "All we can do is as individuals within a tribe (a group meditation). Let us act like the tribe matters. Act as if your own lives matter and treat ourselves and treat others with respect. At the edge of extinction only love remains." -McPherson One would hope that science, if not experience, could guide policy even in the TM movement. The science says that the Meissner-like Effect (the ME) from meditation is concentrated by attendance of numbers in proximity meditating in groups. email response to the lecture.. "The fact that the change is upon us is really important, and should be the headline of every media publication."
